Match Thread Motherwell v Rangers - 12:00 Sunday - Sky Sports

[Blueranger45]

before the game: "I'll take a 1-0 win, any which way we can"

end of game "we should have scored more, hard watch"

it's 3pts in the bag from a potentially tough game and it's almost Christmas, lighten up ffs

 

[Beechwoodboab]

If Goldson is ok then that was near perfect conditions were bad and Motherwell was physical all in all well done

 

[No Hiding Place]

Good to get the 3 points but concerning to only score 2 goals plus the 2nd half was pathetic

FFS look at the conditons.

 

[90sbear]

Job done well done Rangers, thanks Mr Phillipe,
Merry Christmas to all the Bears and Bear-ets.

 

[Blue and True.]

3 points excellent shame about Goldson injury though.

 

[Kit_]

3 points, 2 goals, clean sheet, 2 points behind with a game in hand and a chance to beat them next week. A good wee Clement Christmas gift.

 

[Skyy Bluenose]

Ridvan's fault Dessers was offside. I've heard it all now.

You don’t understand football then, it’s sometimes about the timing.

 

[Cooperfan]

Can someone tell me how those lines proved Dessers was offside?

 

[DEJABLUE62]

Job done but the standard of officiating continues to endanger our players. Hopefully Sima and Goldson are OK.

Kicked off the peetch again

 

[Jono]

Just caught the second half of the game, our passing and ball control is amateur at best, if we give the ball away this easily at the beggar dome we will leave with nothing, I cant believe that so many professional players in the one team struggle to pass the ball to each other,

 

[Applebear19762022]

Why was the Motherwell captain not sent of for a second yellow? Dissent towards the ref

 

[Gordy383]

That VAR offside shot was less than convincing to say the least

 

[Rt. Hon. Bearman]

Three points.
Clean sheet.
Opposition have a penalty shout turned down to extend our run in that regard.

Merry Christmas to the haters!

Good to get the 3 points but concerning to only score 2 goals plus the 2nd half was pathetic

???!!!

 

[Fairbrass]

Lets be honest, they haven't had a clue on VAR from that angle and went with the linesman's initial decision.

 

[Clay Davis]

I don’t think the cameras have a good representation about how bad the conditions were.

Looks at the players there ffs. Never going to play well in wind like that.

Well done for getting the job done early.

 

[Bluethruandthru]

Delighted with that, honestly. Brilliant first half, really impressive given our options.
Battled hard second half, three crucial points well done Rangers.

 

[TheEgg]

Its Christmas tomorrow

We’ve won in tough conditions

Some of you need to take some time off from being torn face moaning basturts

 

[TheHammerJorgAlbertz11]

That goal was never offside imo.

Happy with that from us today. 2nd half was a slog but you can forgive that with the injuries and the weather.

Big Balogan was my motm.

 

[murphb]

Well done Rangers

 

[maxblue]

good win despite the conditions and injury list well done Rangers

 

[HowdenEnder]

How can VAR judge offside from that angle ffs

The main camera would have been almost level with it. Why did they use that one?

 

[Nopapacnoparty]

Big big three points, well done team.

 

[Carson's Cat]

Dessers' first was offside. The second was on. Both were good finishes - which is good.

 

[1690]

Snow is falling, all around us,
Children playing, having fun,
It’s the season, love and understanding,
Merry Christmas, Phil Clement.

Spot on.

[insanicdrunk]

Found the VAR camera online.

 

[Boyblue62]

How can you decide an offside from an angle like that. Tinpot stuff

VAR was not brought in for that .

 

[Ian Malcolm]

Thank you Balogun, Sterling and Cantwell.

 

[DEJABLUE62]

Can someone tell me how those lines proved Dessers was offside?

Sack the var man

 

[4KHDTV]

Dowell was fantastic today

 

[Embra Bear]

Dodgy decision for Dessers goal.

Job done

Looked onside unlike the first disallowed one

 

[WinkieWATP]

Cantwell trying to keep his hood up

 

[Micah Bell]

Yeah I hope Barbour does get blown off the gantry, the rabid boot

 

[nelster]

Superb Rangers.

Finished the game with a middle to front of :

King
Sterling
Lammers
Wright
Matondo
Dessers

We continue on track for the top

If you’d said that to someone 9 weeks ago they’d have laughed at you.

You’d have laughed at it yourself.

 

[Texas ranger]

It has to clearly overrule the initial decision. No one can say that clearly shows an error in the original decision.

 

[Bryanmc]

Questions have to be asked as to why Motherwell ended that game with 11 men at least 2 players should have been sent off

 

[Fergie90]

is he offside again? FS man this lady's front bottom is useless!

He was offside about an inch. Moaning for moaning sake.

 

[CampsieStar]

Thank you Rangers and merry Christmas all

 

[FifeBear]

Easy enough 3 points, hopefully no further injuries and onto Weds we go.

 

[Embra Bear]

Dowell was fantastic today

Yeahi couldn’t understand why everyone was saying he was shite the other day

 

[Maestro72]

Delighted with that. We are looking really hard to beat now.

 

[wee bud]

3 points a good win in difficult conditions what's not to like Merry Christmas

 

[Beezty]

Not playing pretty football in those conditions. Job done, up the road and onto Wednesday.

 

[jexx]

Good away win in terrible conditions. 3pts well done.

 

[keep_believin84]

That’ll ding dang do.

Comfortable enough, just wish we could get to the point quicker where we have the ability to kill games off.

Christ knows what lines VAR drew at the end there! Neat goal from Dessers that should have stood in my opinion.

Merry Christmas fellow Bears, eat, drink, be merry, raise a glass to our absent friends and to the famous Glasgow Rangers!

 

[ChrisMcB]

Rangers never ruined Xmas. Be happy and have a good one

 

[BillStruthsGreenhouse]

That VAR offside shot was less than convincing to say the least

100% Vertical line was not drawn in line with extremity of Motherwell player.

 

[TPP]

Outstanding result. Was very worried for today. 1st half outstanding. Weather was insane.

Well done rangers.
