Fair play the ten men

[Marc]

All of them since the red. They worked hard and battled and actually defended well. We just didn’t have enough going forward which been saying all year (add in injuries).

We slowed them down and it worked because they struggled to regain that pace at the end, we just massively missed any quality.

We’ve lost the league, but that wasn’t based on the second half. We’d all have done different subs or tactics but you can argue it nearly worked out.

Big decisions to make for the cup final though

 

[All of the Lights]

Tartan Army style glorious failure pish.

 

[Cooper 11]

Yep, we were finishing the stronger side. But let’s not kid ourselves, we could quite easily have been on the wrong side of a doing. We’ve seen that movie too many times before.

 

[Clay Davis]

Exact same as the game at new year.

Means fuckall.

 

[CaptainCourageous]

Glorious losers.

 

[GovanFrontLoyal]

Yay we stopped a penalty that was a cheating decision and didn’t lose 4 or 5. I’m so happy.

 

[Zapp Brannigan]

Has nobody noticed this is exactly what happens every game yet? It's less to do with us improving and more them running out of gas. Every game the second half looks better for us, but almost every game it's over as a contest by that point.

 

[DadoPrso9]

Fair play %^*& all, we’ve seen it before put ourselves in a terrible position then trying to fight back unsuccessfully.

 

[wilso10]

Fair play the ten men in not losing further.

Sigh.

This is what we have become.

 

[Barnster Bear]

Next it will be, but we got more corners than them even though we got beat 3 nil.

 

[The Predator]

Pish. They showed nothing. Failures

 

[WinkieWATP]

Did we defend well? If that Idah wasn’t so shite they could have scored 4/5.

 

[WinkieWATP]

Next it will be, but we got more corners than them even though we got beat 3 nil.

Mate there is some walloper boasting in the matchthread he won a grand betting the scum

 

[bud_light]

Butland and some poor finishings saved us from a hammering.
I'll stay out the glorious failure pish

 

[Bryanmc]

The cynic in me says we immediately played better when we went down to 10 as the pressure was off and we were beat

 

[Harryrfc]

 

[ScrabsterLoyal]

It’s true, I thought we might capitulate but we didn’t - somewhow

 

[Meo-meomeomy]

Own goal and a man sent off.
Their injury situation for the run in verses ours.
Boys did well for the final segment.
Bit baffled with the initial line up and approach in the second half.
Forget them now. That’s us done with them until the cup final.
Let them say what they like.
Hopefully we’ll get an iota of decent fortune in that one personnel wise and in terms of how the game goes.
No reason why it can’t be a cup double and then on to Phil Clements Rangers next season.

Still Rangers for me.

 

[Disraeli]

They’ve taken 10 points from us this season , and truth is they’ve never had bro perform particularly well to get them.

Clement needs to show in the cup final he is the man who can get the better of Rodgers or he’ll be out by Christmas

 

[Blueseatea]

The battle should start from the first whistle.

 

[macaloon9]

The cynic in me says we immediately played better when we went down to 10 as the pressure was off and we were beat

You mean like every time we go a couple of goals down to them? Sickening

 

[Javi]

Moral victory eh.

 

[Fergie90]

Fair play to absolutely none of them.

Conceded twice in a minute and when the pressure is literally off they try a bit.

Most of them are done here.

 

[scooter70]

This nonsense has to stop

We have taken 1 point from them out of 12 this season, we don’t deserve to win the league

A number of our fans are now accepting of any shit sadly and are always keen to find an excuse, madness

 

[Hutch42]

They are poor at the back unfortunately we are poor up front

 

[Blue and True.]

As someone else said, Tartan Army stuff.

 

[si72]

Fair play nothing.Once again when the going gets tough they can't lay a glove on them.Shove yer vice winners mentality.

 

[King Richard]

If it wasn't for their horrific finishing it would have been about 7-1

 

[StepoverKing]

Nah not having that tbh. Rangers don’t and shouldn’t take any heart losing OF games particularly when we do it as often as we do.

 

[wd1872]

If it wasn't for their horrific finishing it would have been about 7-1

This.

Fair play to the ten men for only losing 2-1 despite several glorious missed chances for them is something a Dundee Utd or Hibs fan might say.

Is this what we have become?

 

[Man on the post]

They are poor at the back unfortunately we are poor up front

See this I hope we sign a Cousinesque style strker that absolutyely rag dolls them, they are begging for it.

For the OP I agree pity we didsn't see it other times of the season and we wouldn't be drinking in the last chance saloon.

 

[Weedoddieno6]

As always, first reply nails it. Losers. Just losers.

And ask Mr Souness about good losers.

 

[bullen an la]

Next it will be, but we got more corners than them even though we got beat 3 nil.

???

 

[Unicorn]

Tartan Army style glorious failure pish.

It's happened the last few times at parkhead, sick of it.

 

[trevor_steven]

It's glaringly obvious, that's why when we went one down it was so vital to stay in the game.

Instead we lost a second goal straight away and got a man inexcusably sent off.

Amateur stuff again from us.

 

[RJ RFC X2]

Losers find a way to lose!
Until we get players that get tough when the tough gets going we’ll continue in our current horrendous cycle of failure!

Lundstram decided to do what Kyogo couldn’t, imposter today.

 

[Wordy_Rappinghood]

Fair play to Sterling and Butland for looknmg like they weren't going to let them score again on their watch you mean.

 

[club175]

the espanyolification of rangers continues

 

[Zandermc]

There was only a few players in the ten who deserve credit. The rest done nothing.

 

[Lenoblue]

We had a single shot on target and 4 shots in total versus 14 which is nowhere near good enough. Big job for Phil incoming.

 

[Teddy bear]

The 2nd half was an utter embarrassment.
Out there with no clue what we were doing.
It could and should've been 5 or 6 .

 

[steviebroom]

Same pish as before, we come in to the game far too late.

 

[Kwodman]

Ach well at least we tried eh?

 

[Slobear]

Did we defend well? If that Idah wasn’t so shite they could have scored 4/5.

That shite Idah has made the difference for them in winning games. As m7ch as Silva improved today can we say the same about him?

 

[PT98]

Glorious failures again.

They also missed a few big chances. Could easily have been 5 or 6

 

[si72]

Do we win a cup for being vice winners?This is the pish the mentally challengeds hit out with for years.

 

[Parma]

It could have been 4 or 5 but once again we are found lacking in quality, gifted them 3 points and are trying to console ourselves that we played well after going 2-0 down.

You can only piss wi the coke you have as some wise men have said . Pus we were playing 11 abd a referee , far side linesman played a decent match btw but they were clear calls .

 

[ChildOfGoth]

Glorious failures again.

XG was about 2.3 I think . And that I assume included a 0.75 xG for that corrupt penalty award .

They were the better team though I’m not arguing against that mate
