Match Thread Rangers v Kilmarnock - 13:00 Sunday - Sky Sports

[The Doctor]

Got to wonder about the allegiances of a lot of posters on here. Some amount of anti-Rangers rhetoric to say the least.

 

[Ian Malcolm]

Silva is an embarrassment. The proper celebration after that first half performance, and his displays for Rangers, is to pick up the ball and run sheepishly back to the halfway line.

 

[Jeb]

Feels like the same half time post every week.

We've not had a good day, a nice Silva finish paints over a lot of cracks. Should have had a few in the first 30 mins madness. Pen miss is massive, Tavs head has been gone in moments for a few weeks now.

Once again the ref has been poor. Bailed out by VAR a couple of times (although he got the non-pen call right for me). It's the crappy fouls he gives them in the middle of the park, flopping over the ball and handling it. When we are legitimately fouled it's play on.

Can see Balogun going off for a Dowell type player here. Killie aren't doing anything and we aren't winning any headers at corners anyway.

 

[FamousRFC]

Starting to harbour some major doubts with Clement.

This is appalling.

What major doubts he’s had 1 transfer window to transform and absolute shit show with players with a mentality that will never change

 

[Galstonian Oranje]

Silva's so far up his own arse he's morphed into Josh Windass.

At least Josh scored regular goals

 

[steve1873]

Especially the goal.

Most of the comments on here are not grounded in the reality of how we're actually playing on the pitch.

Genuine question. Do you think we are playing well?

 

[cooperman]

they are telegraphed every game

You always know when we struggle as we resort to pass-pass-wide-cross from anywhere up to 30 yards out


Our better players play through the middle on the deck and we don’t play that way. Baffling

and most of them are those high floaty numbers, scoring once with the amount of crosses we've had is a fooking disgrace

 

[JayDee]

We lacked an end product but hopefully we can kick on now we've found one.

 

[julian candy]

This mob will tire 2nd half. We need to make them pay.

An early goal and then pick them off.

 

[Miko's Warm Up]

Fabio’s some player.

Morning Mrs Silva

 

[ForGodForCountryForever]

I thought this was a 15:00 k/o!

 

[Goity]

There was one refereeing decision that exemplifies the sheer incompetence of Scottish refs. Kille player tried to barge Diomande, Dio checked his run and the player went sprawling to the ground of his own accord. Dickinmouth gives it as a foul to Killie.

 

[trevor_steven]

He scored a goal in a very high intensity fixture

You must be watching a completely different game to me.

 

[swavgav]

Because he's the one who sets them up, picks a right back at right wing, tells our midfield to drop between the center backs and picks a left back who hides every week?

Mate it's on him. We're you giving him praise when we were playing well? Well you can't give him the credit for the good then blame the players for the bad.

This is the worst football I've seen at Ibrox even Walters teams were better to watch and he was a defensive minded manager.

Have you seen our squad?

What you doing differently considering the injuries?

What left back you picking considering our starter is injured?

You playing the right back out of position at left back? He tried that and it didn't work.

Stick sterling into midfield then you're relying on Wright or Mcausland at RW who offer absolutely nothing. Sterling is the better option at RW compared to those 2.

The fact he dragged us to even being in a title race considering where we were when Beale was sacked deserves some credit.

These players have just reverted to type and shat the bed as the always do. It's just that it's normally over the festive period and new year they usually do it and this year it was April.

 

[Monkey Butler]

Silva.

 

[Dado’s Napper]

His celebration tells you he and that squad think the criticism isn’t justified they have got off lightly imo

 

[ronadamus_prime]

Yeah what the %^*& was it about? Who was he telling to shut up?

Has the Scottish press not spent the last month or so, calling him a cheating bastard and mocking him for the incident against Hearts at Hampden? Not to mention our support seem to dislike him.

Anyone arsed by a celebration is a gimp.

 

[Thewandofpedro]

I think he was saying everyone is in it together. Obviously excluding the moon-howling pantie-wetters in here desperate for us to lose so they can have a good rage-wank.

He’s been garbage more often than not so he can forget telling the fans to shut it to be honest.

 

[tazzabear]

You’ve got a player on loan who lets be honest is no where near or even close to Rangers quality and he thinks he can celebrate like that infront of your own fans and point to his name on the back like he’s Messi. Utterly embarrassing.

He can do it again if he wants.

 

[Glasgowisblue]

Dessers having one of those games where he seems scared to go to the ball..standing watching and waiting instead of looking for it

 

[MainStandLoyal]

At least Josh scored regular goals

Suppose Silva isn’t playing against the likes of Fraserburgh, Ayr & Hamilton.

 

[GeeSpot]

Probably cop a ban for this but we’ve equalised against a ten man Killie and he’s giving it the big man to our support instead of bursting a gut to get back on with it.

You absolutely shouldn't cop a ban for it. You give that celebration when you've scored your hat trick. Wasn't the time or the place.

 

[JAC_1966]

Starting to harbour some major doubts with Clement.

This is appalling.

Don't make the mistake of blaming the manager again.

 

[Polar bear]

Get in!

That’s a good finish from a nothing ball.

Right, should lift the mood at the half time whistle!

A Nothing ball

 

[BSPECIAL]

We've had this ref a few times this season and he gets worse each game. He was the clown at rugby park who gave them a penalty wrongly and didn't use var then refused to give us two stone wallers. He's absolutely shite and doesn't seem to know what a foul is

 

[SaulBearenson]

how dare he celebrate scoring a goal.

if he walked away like a peak Marco Negri then I perish to think of the outrage.

"he doesn't fucking care, get out of my club!"

Angry wee guys upset the team scored.

Just desperate to go in two footed on the guys they claim to support.

 

[StirlingRFC]

The downfall of this team since killmarnock away has been astonishing

 

[TamS-RFC]

Boyd no happy with the ref

 

[JD1872]

We have a really bad habit of conceding a goal every single time our opponents have a meaningful attack. We may well go on and win today but next weekend will be a massacre if we play like this

 

[Miko's Warm Up]

What is that celebration about?

He likes the Birdie Song.

 

[Gameboy]

What position is Tavernier trying to play?

He is all over the place - we look an absolute mess in general - I have no idea what Clements tactics are

He’s playing as an inverted fullback into midfield.

 

[Let’s Gio]

Lundstram as soon as the half time whistle went, running and shouting and telling everyone to hurry back to dressing room, the rest all walking at pensioner pace

Be the most haste he’s shown

 

[TNT]

I've slated Silva for weeks, but that was a great goal, kept himself onside, out muscled the defender to get in front of him and then a really cool finish.

I thihnk he has been one of our better players today.

 

[The Doctor]

If we had any balls, we'd spend the week talking about the shit officiating today in the lead up to next weekend. Almost every thing going to Kilmarnock, who look powderpuff anytime a Rangers player goes near them.

The boy Findlay in particular is beyond embarrassing. Then complains when he doesn't get anything.
What a complete and utter throbber.

 

[Number8]

I thought this was a 15:00 k/o!

So did some of the players going by the first half

 

[insanicdrunk]

I hate Scottish football more every game I watch. I can deal with us playing shite, it happens, but the fall over and get a foul routine is tiring. Then you see that Dessers has a two arms wrapped round him not foul, then jersey pulled, no foul, the ref would see these if it was killie.

 

[Sideshow Bob]

You’ve got a player on loan who lets be honest is no where near or even close to Rangers quality and he thinks he can celebrate like that infront of your own fans and point to his name on the back like he’s Messi. Utterly embarrassing.

Agreed.
Talentless fu(kwit. Shut the fu(k up and do your fu(king job.

 

[belshoi's bluebell]

Usual shite served up from usual suspects.

The lino for the missed pen is a cheating bastard, Silva clearly on. Not even close.

 

[WATP1979]

Got to wonder about the allegiances of a lot of posters on here. Some amount of anti-Rangers rhetoric to say the least.

It’s the same ones every week and every day in between games

They are miserable bastards to be brutally honest, likely live alone and have no pals due to them being miserable bastards

 

[Wilso54]

For next season Clement really need to look at getting 2 CB's, a right back, and a centre midfield. And hope Danilo isn't pish.

 

[Kirbys House]

Shut up clown

Nat voter, goes some way to explaining!

 

[Simply a Bear]

We need to fill our boots as Kilmarnock tire, but do we have the guile to do it?

Can't see Killie tiring, they spend half the time on ground after sensing a Rangers player within ten yards.

 

[Bouncy]

That god for that. What was he signalling to the UBs there?!

Basically... 'My names Fabio Silva, you lot are all talk, blah blah blah, just shut up '

 

[Miko's Warm Up]

Shut up clown

Quiet please. The big boys are talking and supporting our team.

 

[Los Pollos Hermanos]

Big Marv doing the draw.
Keep believing.

 

[Viper_RFC]

Goal.. and fantastic Fabio but..
Do you :-
A - Run, get the ball and show the urgency and will that we have now got back in the game. Or
B - Give it the big one to fans, suggest we have been watching a different player.
..
In all fairness he has had a decent 1st half. I will take you giving it the big one again after goal 2 & hatrick today Fabio my man.

 

[Eddie Doc]

John Brown shortly before half time
" my insides are churning with anger "
You and me both John.

Turn him loose in the dressing room.

 

[DadosDado]

Decent finish from Silva but the whole team look like they have no belief at all.

Remember the 5-0 game against Hearts on 24 Feb, the entire team were buzzing and everyone wanted the ball. Not sure what’s happened but energy and belief seems to have disappeared.

Ridvan, Sima, and Cortes are our main attacking threats (even throw Matondo in there). Right now we have no one capable of something brilliant. All the threat is gone and teams know they can just let us launch pointless balls into the box all game.

 

[Nord]

Chasing goals and that wrong yin is giving it big licks to the crowd and showing his name and giving it the ‘loud mouth’ signal. Sums up the mentality of this group.

 

[Scarface]

If we had any balls, we'd spend the week talking about the shit officiating today in the lead up to next weekend. Almost every thing going to Kilmarnock, who look powderpuff anytime a Rangers player goes near them.

It happens on a weekly basis, although the shit officiating? We got a penalty within the laws of the game too, so whats the gripe about?.
