[Davieblue1977]

Job done

 

[bluetonic]

Great strike by Wright.

Takes it first time as he should and no time to think about it.

 

[loyd_grossman]

Well done Rangers. Probably the worst conditions a lot of these guys have ever played in.

 

[Crackerjack 12]

Job done. No frills football. No injuries. Now of to Easter Rd against the Spoonburners. Football is Back. C'MON THE RANGERS!!!!

 

[Gauche.]

Four nil according to RTV?

 

[Blue 9]

On to the next game .

 

[JC85]

That'll do nicely, job done & hame.

 

[GovanFrontLoyal]

Shite pitch.
Shite jobbers.
Shite weather.

Good win for the Good Guys.

 

[Thomas Milton]

Job done - won’t stop moaners moaning - but not much does.

 

[bluetonic]

In the next round so doon the road or up the road etc etc

 

[Mabearette]

Think the storm has started ahead of schedule
Job done Gers.

 

[Sticky Fingers]

Good win that, could easily have been the other way had our attitudes wrong as Lundstram rightly says.

A win and up the road and another step closer to the Prodruple.

 

[Michael Mols]

Happy with 4-1 considering the conditions.

 

[peter robertson]

whens the draw

 

[RangersLad1983]

Fuckin hell

Pish poor defending.

Always the same

Job done

Job done yes but if we keep losing goals from high balls to our near post we are gonna drop points we have to plug that area.

 

[EC54]

Atrocious conditions but got the job done without any injuries. I’ll take that all day long.

Hopefully without injuries , will find out by wed?

 

[buc11]

lol at BBC text feed when Dumbarton scored

Hello.

It's almost certainly too late, but Matthew Shiels flicks a lovely header into the far post for Dumbarton.

followed by Craigans comment from the commentary

Matthew Shiels just had to make contact and guide it in.

It's a brilliant ball in. Is there a twist in the tale?

“I thought Dumbarton had a lifeline there”.

Nae bother Crags.

 

[Govandream]

Job done and could have been more. Home draw next round please.

 

[Galstonian Oranje]

Job done and in the next round. Wont give two shits about tonight's game when Tav lifts the cup

 

[isawthat]

Was never going to be classic, pitch awful, underfoot awful and the picture on RTV awful, other than that excellent viewing.

 

[The People]

Not pretty to watch at times
But job done , now on to Easter road

 

[1914-18]

This zonal marking at set pieces needs to be binned

 

[Crown_Defender]

We might have won that 4-1 but I thought we made heavy weather of it, at times, in heavy weather.
That near post defending at set plays has to be addressed also.

I thought it was about as comfortable as we could've hoped for tbh. Should've won by more.

Agree with your comment about the set piece but, other than that it was fine.

 

[bkkbear]

I think that given the weather and pitch it falls under a "good" performance description. Certainly can do far better. But seems like no injuries, 4 goals, minutes for players coming back from injury so onto Hibs next.

just one thing that does bug the hell out of me though. Players who lean back when hitting the ball and send it over the bar like it's a rugby conversion! Aaaarrrrrrggghhhhhh!!!!!

 

[dublinbluenose]

A professional performance on a horrendous pitch in horrendous weather.

 

[blue genes]

I notice we draw out of a lot of 50/ 50 tackles in Scottish games now (and i dont blame them) the opponents go in with intent to injure with there boot following through everytime. Wonder if the manager has anything to do with it, hes probably paranoid now with the amount of injuries we have?

This is true, we don't win many 50/50's, or "duels" in the new world...

 

[Chubster]

Good 3 points away from home

 

[Teddy Casablanca]

Craigan truly takes ears bleeding to a different level. He is an absolute pr1ck.

 

[jimbear]

Those of us who were around at the time of Berwick absolutely hate it when we get an away draw against a lower division club in the early rounds. Any win today would have done me.

When the refs let the opponents kick us up and down for 90 mins and book us for a first tackle, it's no wonder

 

[I believe in Eli]

Never going to be pretty. Solid enough win.

 

[sofakineazy]

I stand corrected, he's played 70 minutes at a higher level.

The facts don't lie

 

[Damask_Rose]

whens the draw

Presumably tomorrow after Celtic game, but there's another fixture after that: Brora Rangers vs Cove Rangers.

 

[Drovavan Dünaditch]

Happy days. I’d like to see Wright starting ahead of matondo on occasion.

 

[BobbyShearer]

The fucking state of Michael Stewart.
Leather gloves and everything.

Based his style on a rapist from 1977.

 

[wee bud's pit boots]

Job well done. Nice to see Lawrence back, because my cynicism when it comes to our injuries knows no bounds.

 

[blue genes]

And of course, the Dumbarton manager questions the penalty - why? the usual reason - because it was awarded to Rangers

 

[bullen an la]

Moaning about the penalty ffs

 

[Scojorfc]

3 points up the road

 

[scottishpoet]

Whats this 'DUN' nonsense on Viaplay.

Its DUMbarton

or if it was Dundee would it be DUE??

 

[BobbyShearer]

Who have we just beat according to the Viaplay score display?

Dunfermline?
Dundee?
Dundee Utd?

Amateur hour nonsense

 

[dtbdel]

Was never going to be classic, pitch awful, underfoot awful and the picture on RTV awful, other than that excellent viewing.

The picture on RTV was from Viaplay feed, so I don't know what the feck yer on about, but let's just have a go at RTv

 

[Vallance]

Maybe once he takes his "other" clubs specs off he'll see Matondo's right foot is kicked.

 

[JD1872]

A game to immediately erase from the memory, in the next round which is the main thing

 

[wee_bear]

It’s amazing how similar all Scott wrights goals tend to be.

 

[rangeral]

whens the draw

Tomorrow night during the Sportscene programme which starts at 7.15pm

 

[Bluerhap]

Terrible conditions and pitch but a good professional performance. Onto the Hivs patch on Wednesday.

 

[I'm So Bored With The MSM]

I thought it was about as comfortable as we could've hoped for tbh. Should've won by more.

Agree with your comment about the set piece but, other than that it was fine.

We've all got opinions mine just happens to be different from yours. I thought McAusland was better on the left as he was getting very little out of their leftback when he was on the right. I thought Dessers was woeful. I thought Matondo was wasteful with a few flashes of what he can do. Tav was decent, Raskin did nothing of note, Cantwell the same. I thought Lundstram was decent, Ridvan OK, Goldson looked like Bambi on ice at times. It was a bobbly cut up pitch but even at that our composure in front of goal is a joke with shots flying everywhere but near the goals. We should have been in double figures goals wise.

All about opinions.

 

[LeithGer]

dire watch.

Matondo dangerous but cannot finish
Dessers should’ve had hat trixk
Mcausland looked dangerous at times
Cantwell yet again not turning up, a real issue!
Yilmaz has to be first choice
Mccrorie fine at this level but not good enough

 

[Almo]

Disappointing to concede Amy goal let alone that one but a good result in minging conditions.
