MOTM Poll Rangers v Hibernian - 12:30 Boxing Day - Sky Sports

[final_straws]

Great win in the end in horrible conditions against a well organised opponent.

Props to the defence as its so difficult to protect the goal in these sorts of conditions and we restricted them to only a few shots on target.

For that reason MOTM - Balogun for me

 

[Kentbear]

Morelos looked really good in his little cameo there.

 

[AnglianBear]

Awful performance. Truly horrific.

Hardly "horrific" is it. You seen the conditions out there?

 

[Bryanmc]

Well done today team and more wind took out of Tim sails

 

[L/COLNEYBEAR]

Morelos needs to start against St Midden. Not at our best today but a win is a win.

 

[makingwaves]

Aribo was class today. That nutmeg at the end!

 

[BeithBear]

Hibs absolutely diving all over the place.

Scumbags

 

[Forth Bear]

Although we weren't at our fluent best, Barnes kept the scoreline respectable for Hibs.

Same again on Wednesday, please.

 

[Baxter Blue]

Christ almighty thank %^*&. Need to cut out giving silly free kicks away in dangerous areas. We did it at least 4 or 5 times.

Aribo gave a stupid one away in the 90th

 

[Texas ranger]

That was a slog. A real slog. Delighted with the 3 points but we rode our luck at times. In saying that their goalie kept them in it.

Another way to look at it is we had 63% possession and their keeper kept them in it.

 

[Luthgibear]

Not pretty but job done.

3 nearer 55.

Onwards & upwards!

 

[AnglianBear]

Morelos looked really good in his little cameo there.

He did, looked like the old Morelos. Same the other night, came on and was mega sharp. He has to start against St Midden.

 

[Sherbet Dab]

Wee Morelos was superb when he came in, really wish he’d put that ball in the fkn back of the net.

 

[Arkansasgerstill]

Daft as it gets from Aribo.

We gave away a lot of stupid fouls too close to the box in the last 20 minutes.

 

[dh1963]

Champions win tight nervy games 1-0.

That was a tight nervy 1-0.

 

[PT98]

Thank %^*& I got new underwear from Santa.

 

[Haggis10]

A really tough match well done Rangers a fantastic result against a team who are playing really well.

 

[Jjbscotty]

Mind the gap.

 

[Kirkygers]

Take that but fu*k me I've no nails left
Go on Rangers !

 

[warfieldranger]

The weather made that the sort of game you just want to come out with the 3 points regardless of the performance.

 

[Oysterblue]

Like watching two teams trying to play football in a washing machine. Not one for the purists. Job done.

Lol

 

[The Royal Standard]

Massive 3 points . Massive !

 

[Gennaro_88]

Ground that result there - delighted with the win. Didn't create too much but hagis finish was clinical, so all in all, great result

 

[Sommefb]

Happy days Rangers. 3 pts job done .

 

[Kilwinnin Bluenose]

Glad to get the win! Well done, Rangers!

 

[Cyberniv]

Great result, second half brutal. Kent needs a break, woeful today. Alfie did more in 5 minutes.
When's Jack back

 

[China Bear]

Hibs were not a bad side, yes we conceded too many corner in the game, but we defended them very well. We welcome the chase !

 

[Chainman]

Glad that's done. Getting nervous with all their corners and balls in the box.

3 more points another professional performance.

 

[Jack Simpson]

We were very lucky today but you need a bit of luck to win titles onwards and updates WATP

 

[Eddie Doc]

Passing went to shit in the last half an hour but that's a massive three points. We don't make it easy on ourselves.

 

[rinosprayer]

And relax.......

Hard work in the second half. Well done to the team on getting the 3 points

 

[rfc4ever]

First half with the exception of the early cross from that doig Hibs never threatened and we were dominant, not at our best today in the second half and great game management towards the end but never looked like Hibs would score either even that ‘curling shot’ Crocker and wanker were creaming themselves over, it was never beating mcgregor, 3 points closer, onto the next match.

 

[Wufty Bear]

Happy with 3 points especially with the conditions...

 

[jaws73]

A bit of a cliche I know but these are the type of games that win you titles.

There's been more than one or two like that and we've ultimately passed the test.

And hey, another clean sheet!

 

[aayjay]

Last 10 minutes taking years off my life. Glad that's over !!

 

[Jimmy Jazz]

And breathe.

They were throwing themselves over in the box at every corner I thought for sure Collum was going to give one eventually.

Job done.

 

[Galstonian Oranje]

Why didn't we deserve to win that?
Hibs competed well but we had far more chances. Indeed it wasn't even close.

Did you watch a different second half to me?

 

[hms]

Onto the bheasts now, let’s see how they react in what is a Gale force wind in shitty conditions
The pressure is all on them.
Hagi motm here for me

 

[I believe in Eli]

Poor performance, albeit in dreadful conditions. I'm getting a little concerned at our form though. Our balance looks off. Our complete failure to control the ball in that last half our is very concerning. Joe Aribo was superb.

 

[CambusRanger]

Squeaky bum time but a massive win well done Rangers.

 

[Gallant_Few]

Next up St Mirren.. We owe them a fkin doing!!

 

[Southseager]

Tough win in crappy conditions

 

[Alvor]

Stinking weather and the pitch looked poor but grinding out 3 points is what was required and we got that

 

[Main Stand]

Aribo MOTM two games in a row for me, Hagi the match winner was great to see & I felt he had a good game to.

But he’s not physical enough to play against Hibs......

 

[Flecky]

I'm happy to take a 1:0 win.

 

[Barba Roja]

We will play better and drop points, another steady win and one step closer to 55.

 

[Let’s Gio]

Big Shaggers save had me blow my load all over the shop. Save like that win titles.

thought it was routine tbh - I’d be raging if he didn’t save it.

his coming for the cross later on and claiming it and holding it was better

back to clean sheets though is what we want and well done all - some great blocks going on too

their keeper had a couple of decent saves

 

[Wilbour]

Thought we were going to make a right kunt of that in the last 20 but we battled and got through our toughest league game of the season so far. Well done lads.
On to Wednesday.

 

[Northern Grizzly Bear]

Horrible conditions and we held tight under pressure from a lot of corners, sometimes need luck but the opposition had that with their keeper producing 2 goal line saves, hope Arfields injury isn't serious looked like his studs got caught on the turf. On to the next game keep it going Rangers.

 

[jim_baxter1960]

Tough second half to watch.
