Match Thread Rangers 1 (Arfield) Livingston 0 FT

Arfield and Halliday the standout performers.

Decent contribution from Hagi, Kamberi and Mcgregor.

Our big players such as Morelos, Kent, Jack and Tav look bang off form
 
What can you say about that? Really just, job done on an absolutely horrible pitch. God knows what the Braga game is going to be like on that pitch.
 
Thank goodness that is over. Our central defenders are so brainless. They have no football intelligence. Livi have one tactic, hoof it up the park or a long throw into Dykes and get lucky with the next ball, and yet in the last 5-7 mins both our centers are slicing the ball out of play for throw ins within reach of the box. No composure, no thought. Football is not as hard as we make it for ourselves.
 
That was exceedingly hard watching that. Let’s hope the performance is a bit better on Thursday night.
 
Back to the tried and trusted for Thursday but surely Kamberi should be in with a shout to start the next league game.
 
£20m spent to decide we aren't good enough to attack Livingston at home.

Absolute garbage. Same failures every week. Manager isn't doing his job.

In the last two games we have had two onside goals chalked off, another chalked off for a 'foul' that had no contact whatsoever and conceded a goal from an obvious handball in the build-up.

I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but this is fucking ridiculous.

It isn't a conspiracy, mate, when it happens before your very eyes. It is cheating by corrupt officials, nothing less.
 
3 points so still a slim chance in the league, hopefully Gerrard doesn't start with that lineup again because it just doesn't work we looked much better with 2 strong forwards. Hopefully we can win the cup and salvage something from this season.
 
Difficult day but having a quick scan through some of the posts here I don't think it was as bad as all that.

Conditions were terrible, we played some nice stuff at times and scored what looked liked 3 good goals. Interesting to see back the 2 that were chopped off.

Onwards to Thursday; will be an entirely different challenge.
 
Only seen the 2nd half, actually thought we played ok and unlucky not to score a couple more. Can clearly see we are totally shot of confidence right now, too many can't handle the pressure. Hope we find our form agaun soon.

It’s hard to argue with that but plenty will.

What is it with Rangers?
5 minutes to go and McGregor's kicking the ball out as if we're behind.
2 minutes to go and the players are pulling Katic up from an injury!!!

Watch Celtic please!!! Julien especially will lie down for NOTHING to waste time - OK! Celtic's time wasting tactics in desperation can be an embarrassment to football, but it really DOES help them!!

That was not Rangers fault it only ended 1 - 0 Would have been a comfortable victory if the Officials had done their job correctly (or maybe they are doing the job they've been asked to do)

Let's cut to the chase we are dire and have been for a while now, even davis is looking for the simple wee pass all the time I don't know how we start to improve that was livi a team who were wasting time after 5 mins

He has real evidence of decisions going against Rangers. He doesn’t call them out, but instead goes in completely the opposite direction, like the handball against Killie.

I am sick of Rangers getting shafted game after game, and if we don’t call it out, it will continue.

At least put the pressure on by referencing it after matches. He doesn’t need to come out and say they are corrupt. He just has to point out “that was two good goals we had ruled out today.”

But he doesn’t even reference it.
 
We played some nice stuff once we went 1-0 up. Looked like a good goal chopped off and Alfies one must have been borderline as well.
Team collectively panicked when Dykes hit the post and was a case of getting the game finished any way possible.
 
Utter p*sh and the same story of every other game in 2020.

Clinging on for dear life at the end with the opposition looking the more likely to score in the last 15 minutes.
 
How is var going to work on thursday if the camera angles are shit. Is there a set position for var cameras ?
 
- their player should've been sent off for his tackle on Goldson.
- other player should've had a second yellow for leaving one of Davis in the second half.
- potentially two goals disallowed that were actually onside.

Hard to contend with shit like that every other week.
 
Take the win that's all that matters the now, the pitch and weather conditions are certainly not helping either in trying to get a better flow to our game.
 
It was a deserved win but it was very uninspiring.

The players who are out of form need a spell on the bench. Morelos and Kent are shocking right now.

The officiating, again, was an utter disgrace.
