Match Thread FC Ufa 1 (1) v Rangers 1 (2) - 15:00 Thursday - Rangers TV UK & Abroad

[Dooodooodrooo]

Qualifying for the group stages has just taken a year off of our journey back. I didn't expect us to go through all those rounds. Lets get a few more quality additions in and go for the league as well.

No surrender performance in the most important game so far. The fighting spirit will hopefully see us through on Sunday as well.

 

[daven37]

Outstanding - team of fxxking warriors.

Morelos - yes his sending off was ridiculous but he owes every single player a big thanks before he gets his boot up the arse and told to wise up.

 

[bpfurian]

What a result,but talk about doing it the hard way.
Backs to the wall with nine men,heroic display from them all.

 

[No T in Mikhailichenko]

Who knows? He could have been some nobhead Russian, trying hard to wind-up our support - in which case, FAIL!

Remember the fannies in Osijek? They see more Gers victories than Celtic ones.

Announce Solanke.

 

[Chas]

Now that’s a Rangers team to be proud for of! F*cking outstanding.

 

[cyl1690]

To the German ref if he is lurking on here.......

NEIN, NEIN, NEIN ya corrupt twat.

 

[Henry Hill]

Aaannnnnnnnnnd breathe!!

 

[Gerrard55]

Hi. Kindly take a good fuck to yourself.
Only one liability on the park tonight.
Ref.
Thanks.

I acknowleged i posted that too soon and took it back shortly after seeing the replay x

 

[Renoranger]

How do you come to that conclusion ? It was the ref that was the clown. Just got to the group stages and this is the pish your talking ? Piss off

He kicked the ball away then yelled at the ref. He is a liability every match.

 

[Coopertrueblue]

That wee prick Morelos needs his fuckin balls kicked. He's put tonights result in jeapordy and put a big fuckin dent in our chances on Sunday.

Gerrard wants to bench the petulant little lady's front bottom or get him fuckin punted. He will become a major liability if this pathetic and childish attitude continues.

I am fuckin raging with the little arsehole.

You should get a ban for this, abuse of the players is not on like this

 

[Fothyman]

Fantastic performance from everyone, well deserved and another game without defeat. Backs to the wall but showed last weekend was just a defensive blip .

Don't care who we get in the draw but would love of the English teams. Anything we do in Europe now is a bonus.

We are a million miles away from last years team and performances. Gerrard is infinitely better than Pedro and Murty. Didn't think it possible we could make the groups due to the number of rounds and brand new team but done it against all odds .

Let's start picking up wins in the league and get back to where we belong at the top of the league now .

I agr

Mate the ball booting was a yellow.

He then refuses to go to the ref when asked and then says something to him and the linesman.

Crazy reaction from him.

He owes his Team Mates BIG TIME now.

i agree what he did was stupid but you never ever see a double yellow for that. He’s played havoc with the plans for Sunday as well now because the players will be fucked after playing that game with ten then nine men. Both sending offs are very dubious.

 

[Ingleneuk]

[Robertjohn]

Immensely proud of this team, battled hard for the jersey.

Morelos really needs to be sat down and told to reign it in, an incredible talent that could be wasted.
Onwards and upwards hard to believe where we have come from in the last few years.

My hearts bursting with pride. Roll on Sunday

 

[William Munny]

The poets show those kind of performances on a regular basis away from home...

She's up all night for good fun,
I'm up all night for the Rangers

 

[ek96]

Thanks. Alfredo owes no one, fuck all.
I'd say you owe him a fair amount.
What have you done to thank him.

The attempts to belittle out prized assets for doing absolutely nothing wrong today are pathetic.
You! Are fucking pathetic. And I've no fucking doubt you vote SNP or Labour.

how the hell can you say he done absolutely nothing wrong today.

 

[Gazzasflute10]

He kicked the ball away then yelled at the ref. He is a liability every match.

I'm sure I saw jack do that as well a few times. Is he a clown ? No but you are.

I think the opposite mate.

We'll be FLYING into Sunday mate.

Back home for 11pm plenty time to recover.

Keep the head up mate we'll do this

 

[bloo1872]

Can wait to see the stat about how many teams started with us in the first qualifier (94?) and how many of those made it to the group stages? Think there was three of us left at this 4th stage?

 

[GraemeG]

With 2 dismissed and backs to the wall
You shall not pass became the call
Against 11 and officials too
They stood together the boys in blue
Keep it tight we'll be just fine
Each one a hero the Rangers Nine.

 

[The left hand of Mohsni]

Baku is calling!

Let’s make a statement on Sunday

 

[Gazzasflute10]

how the hell can you say he done absolutely nothing wrong today.

He booted the ball away max yellow card. Shouts at the ref (every player does it) max a calm down and shut up. No need to send him off half an hour into the game

 

[Graemelins]

A

That's Alfie fresh to batter them on Sunday.....

All part of Stevie G’s tactical sophistication

 

[Ozman]

Haha I like your thinking. Let’s hope your right. Lots of young legs in the team so hopefully recover well and Arfield coming off helps with him.
Let’s Go!!!

 

[DMac83]

Absolutely buzzing. So proud of the 9 heroes that seen out the game for us. What happens to yellow/red cards picked up in the qualifiers? Are they wiped clean for the group stages?

 

[ek96]

YOU SHALL NOT PASS!

the cry was no surrender .

 

[Dooodooodrooo]

Announce Solanke.

Causing a timplosion

 

[Marstonbear]

Heroic performance.

Ref absolute shit.

Flanagan 2nd yellow a joke.

Didn't seem anything wrong with their late goal either

 

[govwalker]

Haha I like your thinking. Let’s hope your right. Lots of young legs in the team so hopefully recover well and Arfield coming off helps with him.
Let’s Go!!!

This is as fit a Rangers team as I can remember mate.

We'll be fine. We're the form tram while the Pedo harbourers are poor right now.

 

[BlueRidgeBear]

Incredible outcome. Feeling rather emotional at the moment, probably largely down to the rollercoaster we were just on, and the sheer significance of what that result means and how far we’ve come.

WATP!

 

[Captain Cutlass]

Regardless of how you saw the Morelos sending off, some of the comments were totally out of order!
"kick his balls", "sell him now", " a fkn liability", "should never wear the jersey again"........and that's some of the milder ones!
He was desperately unlucky to get his marching orders for that and some folk need to have a good look at themselves!

 

[BrunoseAlves]

Strewth that was a tough watch. The RTV shenanigans were obviously a portent of what was to come.

Hopefully Stevie G will make Alfredo apologise to his team-mates and promise that he will rip the hearts out of the scums defence on Sunday by way of penance. A stupid piece of petulance again from Alfredo, but the ref was awful and seemed to be looking to earn his back-hander. Was he Scottish?

 

[Tom Ford]

Absolute hero’s!!! Well done boys!! I’ve got goosebumps here

 

[Kowloon72]

MOTM: Ufa's ball boys

 

[Renoranger]

I'm sure I saw jack do that as well a few times. Is he a clown ? No but you are.

Wise up you cretin. He is a liability every match, which increases exponentially with the incompetence of the ref. Every match he berates officials
He is targetted but in football, dissent/retaliation is always punished more than the original offence. Hence he is an unfortunate liability.

 

[Grommitt]

Thought I'd do my own little bit of Kerrydale Meltdown-style research.

I found this...

Ufa were so bad. Thought their goal at the end looked legit though. Mind you, I didn't see it.

The wee bams were throwing the ball onto the park before the other ball was out.

 

[Caltonloud&proud]

Have aged 10 years

 

[Foolback]

Sadly, I agree with every word here.
If Gerrard sticks by him, he’d better deliver and the poster you replied to would be correct.
Morelos owes the players on the park, big, big time.

Agreed as in life he has to realise there is consequences to for bad behavior.

 

[1690]

You know the added bonus is literally thousands of dhims will have tuned in to watch and will currently be raging.

 

[thetoptier]

the 9 players left were immense

can't believe gerrard's gotten us through

honestly didn't think it was impossible

incredible from stevie g

I still think this thread is infested...

 

[KilbirnieNewtonBearette]

No Surrender, those 9 lads who finished the game deserve a medal. They battled to the last blow of the whistle despite poor refereeing. Bring this attitude on Sunday and Timmy will be crying into their grey & green rags .WATP

 

[ek96]

You should get a ban for this, abuse of the players is not on like this

since when did anyone get a ban for telling the truth.

 

[jb_sow]

An absolutely massive achievement!!

Cannot believe how far we've come in such a short space of time...STEVIE F*CKING G!!!

 

[No T in Mikhailichenko]

Ok would have been more suitable at home for today but I think we will now bounce into Sun and not having to think about that match all week could be the best thing for us.
