MOTM Poll Rangers v Slavia Praha - 20:00 Thursday - BT Sport ONLY

[CoopBlue]

We've not done ourselves justice. That's the frustrating thing.

Basic errors all over the place.

No pass marks for anyone tonight.

Big let down.

 

[Sherbet Dab]

Bridge too far this game for us, wee lesson. Unfortunately we don‘t play against this quality in Scotland, wee bit more quality needed in certain areas of the park if we want to compete in the CL

 

[No Hiding Place]

Can't argue with any of the reds but the ref has gave our players(Ryan Kent in particular) no protection at all.
Hope these Slavia cheats get horsed in the next round.

 

[Goity]

On hindsight, poor team selection by Gerrard. Aribo, Arfield and Balogun all dire tonight.

 

[Chinggis_could_I_khant]

No argument. They've been much better than us tonight. Poor display from your us...better up their game on Sunday.

 

[dbear]

McGregor, again.

I’m giving him the benefit of the doubt, he’s trying to sort his defence out -2 and hedging His bets on coverage of the goal, I don’t blame him for anything tonight.

 

[Corriebear]

They’re a very good team but can’t help feel this game was winnable.

 

[Scoobydoo]

We haven’t played well, but got to question the ref, a number of worse fouls on Kent with no booking. So to send Balogun off for that is pish!!!

 

[rickerton]

Referee done a great job giving every marginal decision to them

 

[wilso10]

Absolutely golden opportunity wasted tonight.

Couldn't have asked for a better draw and had a fantastic scoreline coming back to Ibrox.

Other than Kent, players just don't look up for it tonight.

Huge mistake playing Balogun.

 

[Barisic's Bandage]

Team selection wasn’t right from the start. Why did we even start with that team.

Beat by the better team. Credit when it's due

 

[somethingblue]

Theyll probably be at least 6 min injury time as well.

 

[JD1872]

Poor from balogun and an incredible free kick

All comes from a poor decision to give a free kick against kamara

frustrating we have not anywhere near reached our level tonight

 

[NI BEAR]

So is winning the title...

You are correct but does that mean they escape criticism?

Balogun should have been hooked at half time.

 

[Ped78]

It's not 50/50 mate when you've got to put your foot up that high mate. It's a dangerous and unfortunately he had to go.

%^*& off mate.
Look at the corrupt ref and don’t talk shite

 

[Britannia89]

Fucking hell, some hit

Didn't turn up tonight but we can be proud of what we've done in Europe this season.

Absolutely. Try telling that to some of the greeting faced rockets on here

 

[CaliforniaBlue1872]

No complaints based on this performance tbh

Poor both individually and collectively

They are a good side, hopeful we use the experience as inspiration to kick on again next year

 

[KP_Fergs]

Hard to take this one, we’ve beaten ourselves here. This was a very winnable tie

 

[Big Negri]

We move on. Hump the scum at the weekend

 

[HoboUK]

Game over. Fucking idiocy to keep him on when it's clear they were waiting to get him sent off.

He got himself sent off with a heavy touch and a stupid challenge

 

[Ruben Sosa]

Cannot honestly believe Balogun was still on the pitch.

I don't get it.

 

[Let’s Gio]

Horrendous team to go out to.

Diving fouling cunts.

That being said, Gerrard got this wrong.

No way in hell Balogun and Arfield should have started this.

Not going overboard but this was a very winnable tie.

understand arfield but not balogun

 

[sofakineazy]

nothing streetwise about them, they are cheats.

on the streets you get your cnunt kicked in for acting like they have.

Call it streetwise or cheating but we wouldn't be down to 9 men.

 

[Mezzala]

Donkey?

Have a word with yourself.

Agreed the comment is out of order but I can't understand why he picks Balogun over Helander in any situation

 

[Bornathepostman]

Go and look a the refs performance in this tie and come back to me

Ref has been shite but every ref gives that challenge a red. It's just a fact. Rules are clear about dangerous challenges

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

Problem is that it was six different players.
Who do you book?

The first one who went through the back of him. Send a message to the rest if you're a semi-competent referee.

 

[Zandermc]

Completely outclassed tonight.

This mob haven’t even been that good tonight. We’ve just been that bad.

 

[Bleedsroyalblue]

Balogun shouldn't have started in my opinion and Roofe shouldn't have been brought on either.

Ultimately we're not good enough at this level.

 

[HandsomeHead]

The really annoying thing is that this will be as far as they go.

They’re a good side, but had we faced them last autumn I’d have taken us to win.

 

[mathers1]

Bit harsh to blame it all on him. We never looked like scoring at all when we had 11 on the pitch.

The tackle cost us it as we had no chance with 10 men.

Certainly not with 9 and 0-2 down. Deserve to go out.

 

[PMB1872]

I think we are a few upgrades away from being CL competitive next season. Need a more dominant centre half, a more dominant central midfielder and a wide right equivalent of Kent.

 

[Artful Dodger]

Only ones I can’t fault are Patterson and Kent.

Why's McGregor standing so close to the far post?

Glad im not the only one who thought he was poorly positioned.Can’t fault the guy to much though he has saved us on numerous occasions.

 

[KensingtonBlue]

The annoying thing is they're a pretty average side. We should be beating them over two legs. Was the best draw we could have got and we've shot ourselves in the foot.

 

[coinflipper]

this is a wake up call that we aren’t as good as we think we are?

only response to this is to go and embarrass the the unwashed.

 

[GoramsGratefulGrasp]

An amazing season no matter what happened tonight.

 

[grandmaster_gaz]

Dire tonight and dire in the last leg.. it’s been a good run so can’t be too harsh. We haven’t got going tonight at all

 

[Clementime]

Oh well, was a good run. Should be proud. But the ref is a wank & Slavia are diving gypo pricks, hope they get pumped in the quarters.

My sentiments exactly, ref is a fucking wank. Slavia are pussy bitches.

 

[Boyinblue]

Into perspective we have done the main objective europe was the bonus champions #55

 

[HoboUK]

Despite Helander being injured?

Still better than Balogun.

 

[Michael Mols]

Balogun was lucky to last as long as he did. Should have been hooked.

 

[Withambear]

Disappointing performance and score

however this was a massive step up in terms of opponent

 

[Recoba]

Not at it tonight and this team although diving Kunts are Street smart and supremely aggressive.

Sadly we haven't shown our true performance over the 2 legs.

The 2 Centre backs tonight have been all over the shop but they aren't the only ones.

 

[Main Stand]

I’m giving him the benefit of the doubt, he’s trying to sort his defence out -2 and hedging His bets on coverage of the goal, I don’t blame him for anything tonight.

I love him, but I’d expect him to save both of those normally. Maybe it’s just my high expectations of him.

 

[Dom]

Red cards aren’t awarded by how much “blood is pishing” from the opponent.

it was a rash challenge. Fine. Book him. If we’re sending every lady's front bottom off for that...ffs

It’s endangering the opponent and a clear red. Don’t get my wrong I’d want him to go for the ball there but it was a red all day.

 

[Papasmurf]

%^*& off mate.
Look at the corrupt ref and don’t talk shite

Rubbish. He studded the keeper in the forehead ffs

 

[subversive_bear]

This ones on stevie tonight. Played two wrong players and his subs were too late and wrong. Obviously he's allowed mistakes after this season but he's got this horribly wrong.

Learning experience for everyone concerned tonight. Hopefully the lesson helps next season when we try to qualify for the CL. Obviously this is bitterly disappointing but our players and management have been great all season. I am so very proud of them.

 

[Ubik]

we badly need top upgrade the midfield with first team starters.

 

[DoubleWhopper]

Some questioned, why Balogun played infront of our international class defender Helander.

some rambling replies about “pace”.

oh well, we have to rouse ourselves for Sunday at Torbett Towers.

But we reaped what we sewed tonight. And we got what we deserved.

 

[Mac9]

Balogun isa decent player for league and cup duties but for games in Europe he is not good enough. Helander every day.

Need a lift on Sunday. Champions or not I don't want the season to just fizzle out.

 

[StephenHawkinsfitbawboots]

Will get shot down but McGregor should do better there
