Mind the gap: Rangers v St Mirren


Recommended Posts

how does Miller miss from 2 yards!?

 

That was a Kenny Miller classic. The type of miss which earned him the 'Kenny Misser' tag in his previous spell with us. I was looking right down the goal line from CD7 and it really can't have been much more than 2 yards, 3 tops. It was probably more difficult to miss than to score. :facepalm:

Kenny Miller missed a couple of chances today,no doubt!,but I always feel it is unfair to single out players in a team game!.

A great goal from Forrester, 3 more points and another clean sheet,Hibs losing is a bonus!,we are quite relentless and are grinding out results,there is a good belief in our squad and are heading for promotion. Next season we are finally back in the top league after our demotion from the top,let us all embrace the work the new management & team are doing,at last we are making progress and in fact we are scaring Scottish football with the way we are progressing.

We are still a work in progress and we will only continue to improve,upwards and onwards

Wednesday night when HiV's lost was a big big corner turned and a feeling of some light relief as far as avoiding the dreaded play-offs are concerned, recent games have shown we have managed to ground out a result more often than not, today's 'grounding' coupled with another defeat for the green team means....the champaign is already on ice and the helicopter has no need to refuel :champs:

Its so close now can taste it! Its within touching distance and while not a done deal just cant help but think of what has came and what lies ahead.

 

Cant wait to get it all over with and the journey through the lower leagues finished.

 

The journey through the leagues has brought many Highs and a few lows but looks to be finally over. Have kept a souvenir league flag from each lower league win and look forward to in 20 years or so from now pulling them out of a cupboard or a box and reminiscing of the time we faced the abyss and the abyss blinked first :rfc:

 

We may all argue at times and disagree on many things but when it counted the support stood tall and protected what is ours for the generations ahead and that is what will be remembered.:crest

 

 

Next journey is 55 and the day we all get to stand at Ibrox and listen to the champions league music. Will shed a tear that day

 

A well deserved pat on the back to all us bears

 

here's to the future :cheers:

 

Ps to anyone going to say to soon, i agree but bite me!:flipa:

Mmmm, it looked closer in real-time, but Willie Vass's photo makes it look like Miller hit it from about 3 to 4 yards from goal.

As always, it is rather easy if you look at it from your seat - whether at home or in the stadium - but JJ and Waghorn said during the commentary that all sorts of things can happen in there, e.g. the connection you get with the ball, the speed and angle of the ball, whether it hits the ground before that, how you perceive the goalie in front of you, the defender behind you and the like. All in a split second. No matter whether you are a 19-year old rookie or an Old Fox like Miller, the game "mechanics" work the same for all.

 

You actually see such things quite often, when someone crosses the ball high into the box and someone slids in at the far post and balloons it over the bar from a couple of yards out, when it "looks easier to score". The problem for most of us is that we hardly ever experience this in person and can only assume what happens, or indeed what should happen.
