calscot 0 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I merely debunk the notion that the league is at fault for the quality of football. The last time we played a Hugh line and pressed the opposition we won 8 nil. Fine if you're debunking is pretty much saying, "the last time we played really well, we played really well". BTW did the opposition play well? That's a huge factor. I would guess they didn't. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Barristan Selmy 222 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Calscot, I'm still waiting for you to explain who said we should be as good as Celtic in the cups. Also interested in who on earth is 'bemoaning that Bayern don't play as bad football as us'. Or are you just making up things to get a reaction. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW did the opposition play well? That's a huge factor. I would guess they didn't. we barely allowed them to have the ball. we didn't just play really well. we played in a materially different fashion to how we have played since. the keeper passed the ball out. the defense played on the half way line. the whole team chased for possession and broke with pace. we moved the ball quickly. it wasn't the same old tactics that happened to work for a change it was a whole different style and level of football. after 20 minutes we were 2 - 0 up and had created 20 chances on goal i counted. http://www.rangers.co.uk/match/match-reports/item/5180-rangers-8-0-stenhousemuir 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

the gunslinger 3,366 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Ally can still have a good season by winning the Scottish in fairness to him. Especially if we remain unbeaten in the league. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RANGERRAB 3,293 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Ally can still have a good season by winning the Scottish in fairness to him. Especially if we remain unbeaten in the league. Dundee Utd are by no means unbeatable but McCoist needs to get his tactics and a gameplan spot on for Saturday. Unfortunately Id suspect few of us would have any confidence in him achieving that 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

craig 5,199 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Ally can still have a good season by winning the Scottish in fairness to him. Especially if we remain unbeaten in the league. I dont quite understand this mentality though... Most of us are screaming out for youngsters to be played and given game time, especially as the league is won. But you consider that his successful season will be fulfilled, in part, if we remain unbeaten. Now, I know that we can remain unbeaten with the youngsters in the team but the chances of remaining unbeaten with a number of youngsters in the team diminishes. Are we prepared to accept a defeat in the league so long as the youngsters play ? I know they arent mutually exclusive but we need to make our minds up on whether it would be acceptable or not. Take McCoist's view.... if he hears that the fans want to remain unbeaten in the league is he more or lessl likely to go with youth ? We all know the answer. For me, the league is won, so after this Saturday's game give some of the older heads a rest (guys like Jig) and bring in the likes of Gasparotto. Give Black a rest and bring in Telfer. Give Daly a rest and bring in Gallacher or Dylan Dykes. I wont get upset if we lose a league game or two if we get the chance to see these younger guys playing. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Cooper 0 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Discount the league, forget it, winning it means we go up, that is all, we were always going to win it, there is no achievement there, unbeaten or not. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
