Match Thread NK Maribor v Rangers - 19:15 Thursday - Premier Sports

[Luthgibear]

Ya Dancer!

Every single player left it all on the park tonight, can't ask for anything more.

 

[MunroLoyal]

5yr ago people we were at our lowest point. Playing . The likes of brechin etc tonight we turned a corner,we are 90 mins away from a european league,something we never thought we would see again for donkeys years... I have no complaints tonight

 

[Gaz030191]

Bring on Ufa! Let's smash them at home and make the trip to Russia a bit easier on ourselves.

 

[bluecode03]

Game management 10/10 love Rangers

 

[Stanley]

Great performance. Roll on the SG bandwagon.

 

[Lossie Bear]

Shagger has been god like tonight jeeeeesus

I started a thread in here 2 weeks ago that Shagger would be worth 20 points to us this season and it was roundly scoffed at...

 

[Sandbear]

Phew. But unlike a few past Rangers teams I wasn’t really shitting myself thought it was a modern professional performance.

 

[hootsmon]

I'd have taken 0-0 before kick-off. Even sweeter with a bent ref and that mob's antcs.
Bring on the Ufa!!

 

[No T in Mikhailichenko]

Magic getting past a good team, comfortable tonight.

 

[tazzabear]

Outstanding.
Short of at least two players who would have played but we survived.

 

[Superrangers]

Job well done lads. Time now, after King’s court victory, to get in a couple of real quality additions, a player maker and a striker that know where the goals are. Takes the pressure off Morelos a bit.

 

[DavieC1953]

Well done to the Gers.
Great team performance and all credit to McGregor, MOTM by a mile.

 

[JD1872]

Massively professional tonight. McGregor, Katic, Goldson first class

 

[Jacrispy]

Allan McGregor may well be the signing of the season. What a guy

Superb shift from the players tonight. Special mentions for McGregor, Morelos, Arfield, Goldson and Halliday (just because I was terrified by his inclusion and he did alright)

 

[mad4rfcme]

Wow, well done the mandarin marvels. Delighted.

 

[cold]

Well done Rangers very good result dealing with cheating players and a Ref who was awful.

 

[.k.k.]

3 clean sheets in a row away from home in Europe, when was the last time we did that?

 

[noucamp72]

Ya beauty.
Deliberately refrained from posting on the thread.

Even when I checked it I was sliding a book down the screen praying for this.

YAAAAASSSSSSSS.

 

[zzigurat]

I think we're on to something special with this manager and team.

 

[madride]

If fcking love this team. Fantastic tonight

 

[JMCK]

Whole team did well, but Goldson, Tavernier, Jack, and McGregor were exceptional.

 

[sportssocks]

Good stuff, I'm liking this new team.. We need 2 more to strengthen the team but there's a resilience to us now, we have an anchor.

 

[The Pontiac Bandit]

We rode our luck at times but that was a terrific defensive performance even though we where missing a few important players.

 

[YorkshireBear]

What a fucking performance. Not pretty at times, but they were a great team that we just knocked out.

 

[The Killer Toad]

This performance was Walter-esque. Last season was characterised by lack of bottle, this team has bottle reinforced with concrete

 

[Foolback]

What a unbelievable result considering how long this team has been together and we were missing many of our best players. Brilliant Brilliant lads. Shagger shows yet again why he is Scotland's number one. Never a penalty in a million years the same little shit that was fooling all of our players then dives for the pen, karma got ya.

 

[songsofglory]

Incredible. Absolutely delighted. Masterstroke performance.

 

[Dooodooodrooo]

Despite having a ref that was afraid to book the home side, we looked solid. Make no mistake, that's a good team we've just put out.

 

[Ka D'argo]

The only stipulation for joining Follow Follow should be that you have to offer your wife to Mcgregor. Top class save. Every performance from him has boosted confidence for the rest of the season.

I don't want to punish the poor bastard

 

[hawkfalcons]

fucking fantastic the Rangers

 

[Bear72]

Great team effort. Again every single player stepped up and dine their job. And as for Shagger well he's getting a kiss on the lips from me!

 

[Riccles]

Soooooperb

 

[Neilstonger]

Whisper it, but this is reminiscent of a Walter Smith side.

Shout it loud and proud mate. This team has been built in months; who knows where Stevie G. will take them.

 

[Cooper_11]

A thoroughly professional performance tonight.
At last we have a bit of steel from back to front, and we can only get even better the more we play together. Onwards and upwards our Rangers !!

 

[Bordersbear]

Only Scottish team left in Europe in the middle of August. Not bad going for a "new" club who the rest of Scottish football done their best to try and kill us off. Absolutely superb.

 

[Fothyman]

Was the ref Scottish ?

 

[Oranje]

10/10 for Jack and McGregor.

What a shift, whole team got stuck in tonight. Alfredo is one shirt tug away from committing a cartel style execution on some mug.

 

[Echo_1]

Take a bow, Shagger!

The big man is leaps and bounds ahead of any other 'keeper in Scotland, miles ahead.

Fantastic result, and we're off to Russia!

 

[JK1975]

Yaaaaaaaaasssss, job done! Brilliant penalty save from shagger

 

[Cooperfan]

They'll use this shocking refereeing performance as proof the Scots refs are as good as Europe's.

 

[Captain Cutlass]

MOTM?...........pick any one of the eleven men on the park and there's your answer!

 

[hunter1rfc]

Thought they were dirty bastards at Ibrox bit tonight they were worse get it right up them

 

[Calico Jack]

Shagger Motm so far.

He is having a great game.

Without a doubt.

 

[1690]

Nothing in Scotland will put us under that level of pressure for 90 mins.

 

[imvaison]

Whole team excellent, every single one of them. McGregor just outstanding.
New team as well just imagine how much better they can become once they settle.

 

[Discophrenia]

You can attack us and we will stand firm

 

[Business_Bear]

Superb from everyone delighted with that!

 

[Morelos_GoalMachine]

Hopefully never play Maribor again they're a dirty team trying to get Morelos carded cause they were being potted out of the competition.

 

[coplandrearl36]

Well done Rangers, everyone of you done us proud.

May not be everyone’s cup of tea, but we’ll done Halliday, you were asked to do a job, a bit scary at times but task completed.

Next.

 

[douzpwa]

Bloody marvellous Mcgregor brilliant all players did great job and a special mention for Halliday well done son!

 

[The Reaper]

Job done.

Next!

 

[karanja]

Hairy at times but a real European away performance.Really well done to the lads and the backroom staff.They all done their bit.

They are bursting a gut for the Gaffer and its wonderful to see it.

 

[Nightman]

Fantastic from everyone tonight. The spine of the team from McGregor to Morelos was really solid. Proud as punch!

 

[warfieldranger]

That ref must have trained for his licence at the SFA.

 

[weetam3106]

I’m so proud of our team tonight. Well done to all involved. Bloody marvellous. Thank you.

 

[Rickymck]

I am running out of man love for this team and it's only August

 

[Big Bawz Baloo]

That was with Barasic Coulibally and Flannigan missing.

 

[Ambiorix]

That was a lot more nerve-wracking than I thought it was going to be. Well played, Allan McGregor.
