Super Cooper 0 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 These was just the stand out results not even mentioning prior to administration and the ugly wins which if you listed would be an even longer list. Humiliations to Inverness and Dundee Utd, three times as well. Look at that reply you got, he is actually trying to excuse such shambles. It's absolutely embarrassing. Thankfully it is a tiny tiny minority, maybe even himself only. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhunter 0 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Agreed, one off's certainly happen in football and a first friendly of the season for the Premier League champions without a number of first team squad isn't something to get worked up about. However the following is more than a one off: 2012-13 League Peterhead 2-2 Rangers Berwick Rangers 1-1 Rangers Annan 0-0 Rangers Stirling 1-0 Rangers Rangers 1-1 Elgin Rangers 1-1 Montrose Stirling 1-1 Rangers Rangers 1-2 Annan Rangers 0-0 Stirling Montrose 0-0 Rangers Rangers 1-2 Peterhead 2012-13 Challenge Cup Rangers 2-2 QotS (QotS win 4-3 on pens) 2013-14 Challenge Cup Raith 1-0 Rangers 2013-14 League Cup Forfar 2-1 Rangers You can add falkirk in the league cup before admin His record is abysmal. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,249 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Some just like to make negatives their non-plus-ultra, it seems. I do not even mention any positive stuff here, just put a bit of objectivity on what happened. But no, it's all just omni-shambles, a disgrace, and abysmal, no matter what. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rome wasn't built in a day and neither will be the rebuilding of the Rangers. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 I thought we were as bad if not worse last season. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrahimHemdani 1 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 DB should be put out to grass or he could do auditions for a one man prematch Cheerleader Act.More realistcally, he could wear a sandwich board and walk up and down Edmiston Drive sending out the message that "The Omnishambles is HunkyDory". Some intersting comments from the BLUEMOON SITE East Level 2 wrote:54.8 mpg and easy to park near the ground. Well worth driving the 620 miles round trip for. And it's odd to see two "major" grounds less than 200 yards apart. Also worth it to see Jovetic, Nasty and Micah each manage half a game without picking up and injury. And the steak pies were good too. And it was sunny. Agreed. I enjoyed the weekend away in the sun. It was bizarre to see the two stadiums alongside each other. We had a good laugh with some Dundee fans. It was a fantastic turn-out of Blues. What's not to like? The match was a typical pre-season walkabout. The only thing I would have any concern about is that our fringe players are still a million miles from the first team or even the bench. I really can't see the point of Boyata, Rodwell, Sinclair, Guidetti (other than the obvious home-grown element) still being in the squad. They are not youngsters any more. Got to say, I enjoyed the trip. Met some great Blues from the Aberdeen branch. Christ, those guys are dedicated, it's a hell of a round trip to watch a 'home' match. As has been said, it was a typical first game pre season friendly and so no point dwelling on the result. The only downsides for me was confirmation that Guidetti will never fulfil his promise and a complete lack of appreciation for the City fans from the players. It's the same every pre-season. City fans/Blue Moon forum members getting into a hissy fit because City have lost a pre-season friendly. F***ing Ground Hog Day. Get a grip! When will some of you learn, these games mean jack s***! It's about getting fit. End of! That aside, most of our 1st team are away, either playing in or resting after the World Cup. But if some of you want to beat yourselfs up about being beaten by Dundee, feel free. Because when we play Newcastle away and Liverpool at home, this game will be long foforgotten. They don't seem too concerned. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't see the point of your reply; all he said was that it was a meaningless match which gives no indication of the season ahead for either team. If we lose to Ventura County Fusion what will that say about our chances in the Championship? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was half way through the season, yes; but personally I wouldn't read too much into it; as I said Brora had a very experienced team: Tokely, Munro, Morrison etc. We struggled against 10 men at Forres in 2012/13 in the Cup. That said, I wouldn't have been too happy if I'd made the trip! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
