Switched off at HT. Waste of time, had more important stuff to do.
We started last preseason much faster and sharper. Today and the game against Partick were rank rotten. Now to actually show a bit in the remaning games to build up confidence.Might be tazza but I've been around a long time and hate to see any drop in our standards. I hate the thought of us getting sloppy.
I think quite a few, maybe all of the fringe players today done themselves no favors. They won’t get many opportunities and simply have to shine when they do. I really didn’t see anything out of any of them that will have our regular starters worried about any kind of fight for their positions.
It’s harsh that they get measured different but these aren’t friendlies to get match time and fitness for them. These are the very few opportunities they will get to become first team players.
In the two friendlies Kelly has been our best player why should he go out on loan …if he starts to struggle fair enough but not when he has looked so comfortable on the ball and has been great and refreshing to watchAgreed....
Middleton won't make it with us. Jones & Barker have had their chances & just look the same unconvincing players they always have.
I had hopes for Bassey & Edmondson but as time goes on I now doubt they'll be regulars - although Bassey might get his chance if Barisic was suddenly sold late in the window. Simpson doesn't look to be imposing enough.
Kelly is neat & tidy on the ball but I think would probably benefit from another loan.
None of them have the slightest chance of ousting any of our current first pick players & IMO today simply cemented it.
I would hate to think what a full Ibrox will be like if the team put in a sloppy performance.
Agree, it’s Kelly’s time to become a Rangers player now. If not now then neverIn the two friendlies Kelly has been our best player why should he go out on loan …if he starts to struggle fair enough but not when he has looked so comfortable on the ball and has been great and refreshing to watch

'zat heehaws mither n law?Still got herhaw
rather have Buff and Tom'ering Badly :shh:Tom now on but it's buffering badly

Not moaning in the slightest mate just an observation from the game of football I watched.
You do know it's a football forum right? Where people give their views on football, in this case Rangers.
Burns?What is it with people who don’t realise pre season kick snouts mean absolutely zilch , zero , Nadia results wise ? The thing that we benefit from in tease games is Gerrard sorts the ones who don’t show him what he needs to see and shows them the door . Remember the liverpool friendly ? Was a turning point for some who left like lafferty and for Burns who stayed and look how well he did for us . Calm down bears
There are a few games last season that would have had the screeching fannies up in arms and transferring their permanent rage/anxiety onto the park. Every excuse in the book gets rolled out for them - standards, fear of 10IAR bla bla bla. It'll never ever change sadly.I would hate to think what a full Ibrox will be like if the team put in a sloppy performance.
My take on it, glad to see Middleton getting some game time.
5-0 Rangers, bearing in mind we don't have a full squad yet.
Never done the lottery, for obvious reasonswhat is your numbers for the lottery tonight ?
Sorry mate meant Bjorne . Stupid phone .Burns?
Borg?Sorry mate meant Bjorne . Stupid phone .
I was thinking about something after the Partick game and also from seeing England do well at the Euros.Today and all friendlies mean diddly, but one thing I am a bit surprised about is the fringe players not putting in a right shift to try get in the managers thoughts. If it was me I'd busting a gut to stick in a good performance to try get in the team.
Right you are.So you don’t think an important part of the uk history is winning the Battle of Britain and defeating the Luftwaffe

It’s clearly not good enough, the managers reaction tells you that, and the fringe players most certainly didn’t help their cause but it’s hard to get to upset over a pre season friendly.
Didn’t set my 4am alarm for this one so caught the 7 min highlights.
Only concern for me was the shocking defending leading up to the initial corner and subsequent poor clearance for the goal.
Where the hell are Sakala and Ofoborh?
Unfortunately for them they mean a lot to the manager. He has binned people to the sidewalk for poor performances in these matches.Today and all friendlies mean diddly, but one thing I am a bit surprised about is the fringe players not putting in a right shift to try get in the managers thoughts. If it was me I'd busting a gut to stick in a good performance to try get in the team.
Ofoborh is potentially carrying a knock, Sakala had passport issues which held up him arriving in the country so he is isolatingDidn’t set my 4am alarm for this one so caught the 7 min highlights.

You’d hope they’d relax a bit after us winning theThere are a few games last season that would have had the screeching fannies up in arms and transferring their permanent rage/anxiety onto the park.

Wasn't having a pop at Kelly, he's been fine, but currently Jack, Arfield, Davis, Lundstram, Kamara, Aribo, Ofoborh & Hagi (there may be others...) are likely to feature before him, so I don't see him getting much game time.In the two friendlies Kelly has been our best player why should he go out on loan …if he starts to struggle fair enough but not when he has looked so comfortable on the ball and has been great and refreshing to watch
Itten is million miles away from being replacement for Alfie. He won't be our starting centre forward. No way.Agreen on both counts. It's worrying for Itten when he can't even get a start in this game with AM unavailable.
We have very few openly SNP fans. Good. I don't think you'd enjoy showing yourselves openly.You're missing the point. We Love our pro british antiques.
I'm basically saying its an embarassment as you get likes of tommy Robinson and his followers trying to use our club to spout his bile. You can be pro british and point out what's wrong. Loads of our fans find it embarrassing now

Ofoborh was seen in training pics, but hasn’t been seen since and Gerrard said in an interview that some were carrying knocks so 2+2 etc.Cheers for the info! Has this been officially communicated by the club or just snippets from reporting?
Yeah, he needs to be his own man, doesn't want to be linked with that turncoat naisey!I hope Mayo appreciateS every moment of this.
These are his salad days.
Cant even get a start? Its a pre season with pre selected teams. Its not a first XI ffs.Agreen on both counts. It's worrying for Itten when he can't even get a start in this game with AM unavailable.
