Match Thread Rangers v Ross County - MATCH POSTPONED

[Hipster Dashie]

It should be. Its their fault the games off. They had plenty warning and could've/should've traveled down yesterday. Any other country would punish the team for incompetence.

Could also punish the authorities for the appalling transport network. Today should have been a day we can travel in the Highlands. But the lack of investment and the lack of any other option than to travel by road is a huge handicap to folks in the Highlands.

Has that fat fucking blurt no exploded yet after her Xmas dinner for 10?

I prefer men……








Nae…..

 

[Barca Bear]

Daily Record are calling the postponement controversial

Well four pages of posts on here agree.

Fucks sake, just getting ready to go to the Ibrox bar!

 

[DovRob]

For those advocating that Ross County are deducted 3 points, would they have thought the same for the recent Dundee v Rangers game if it was postponed rather than just delayed due to Rangers being held up due to traffic problems caused by the fog and roadworks?

 

[AndythephotoDr]

It’s crap the game isn’t on but probably benefits the team. No risk of injuries, extra rest for the team etc but I’m not sure if it effects how the team will prepare etc

Hope the rain isn’t an issue at the weekend and we destroy the rotten mob in their own pit

 

[borderbear]

It’s a real bonus for Phil and the team before Saturday.

 

[tottie beck]

Really disappointed. I was looking forward to this game today.

 

[kai-Johansen59]

Just arrived in Tenerife so just found out.

 

[alvin_kirkwood]

I think this is bad for us.

Puts a wee bit of pressure on us for Saturday.
Much prefer points in the bag than games in hand.

They should have used the A82, they'd have known about the issues on the A9 before they got to Inverness.

what time did the A82 close ?

 

[Kinghornloyal]

The clubs would need to agree to that and given it is the winter break unlikely

Won't happen. We are away to Spain.

 

[Kinghornloyal]

This is about fans also. Game gets cancelled so that fans if both sides from up north don't attempt to get to Ibrox.

Yeah I know that also it when we go as well

As I said it needs agreement

Won't be happening. Its a break no teams will be playing. It will be in February tbe 1st week when Europa playoffs are on.

Did it shut today?

Yes I know it a break and neither club would agree to to playing but it need that agreement to play it

I know when it is likely to be played as well

13/14 Feb or 20/21 Feb

 

[Arab]

Did it shut today?

yes due to fallen trees,

 

[GeckoBear29]

The oldies that don’t do social media or that’ll be in for a surprise when they rock up tonight

 

[CamBluNoo]

Up before 6 in the morning in Oz and wondering why RTV isn't working. Back to bed.

Folks can get to Ibrox from all over the UK but ross county are un prepared.

Typical tinpot scotland. Fucking seething. I get its extra rest but I prefer to play.

 

[ArgyllBear]

Surely we can play it the midweek between St Mirren (a) & Livingston (h)?

 

[rangeral]

Livingston play Ross County that midweek - 30th January

Also it may set a side for any Scottish Cup postponement/s

 

[gordon_blue]

Someone should tell Rangers TV. They are still offering the game for £9.99.

No word of a refund or credit.

 

[Rickety Cricket]

Nah. We win it in the pitch. Awarded points and titles is what that lot do.

Yeah, I definitely agree with you there. It would've only been a slight inconvenience tonight, regarding Saturday. Ross County at home would've been a comfortable 3 points. Even more comfortable by the time we get round to playing them, players back & a few fresh faces in the door in the next few weeks.

 

[Rickety Cricket]

No idea of where the problems lie on the roadways , probably Humza doesn’t either , but Was it an option to take the train ?

No idea but you'd of thought so. But considering that pishy tinpot club couldn't organise a bus yesterday then booking a train for 20+ people would've been mission impossible for that lot. Anyway, they would've had to pay for an overnight in Glasgow if they got a train and I think that's what they were trying to avoid by getting the bus down today

 

[Rickety Cricket]

Could also punish the authorities for the appalling transport network. Today should have been a day we can travel in the Highlands. But the lack of investment and the lack of any other option than to travel by road is a huge handicap to folks in the Highlands.

Agreed

 

[Rickety Cricket]

This might actually work in our favour, other than getting more rest. We know these players can bottle it against this lot, even when playing decent. I think now the pressure of going top will be off, if we beat them. So with that pressure off, we might go in and play to our strengths, rather than getting beat mentally, which gets in our way far to much. Not so much since big PC came in but you still need to look at Aris at home. I know we beat Betis away, but the pressure was off. 1-1 @ sheep-camp, mentally weak again. So here's hoping this takes that off mentally and we just go for it on Saturday.

The oldies that don’t do social media or that’ll be in for a surprise when they rock up tonight

Absolutely shocking - no text or email from the club!

 

[Kit_]

Should be an automatic 3-0 and 3 points.

 

[GeckoBear29]

Absolutely shocking - no text or email from the club!

You know that’s actually a good point tbf, a quick email fired out wouldn’t have hurt. Some folks won’t have been on socials if they were in the office, although suspect most will be in some form of chat
