My opinion but I'm sure I was watching Warburtons team last nite way all the passing in ther box and leading to nothing can we honestly say we're excited about next season I'm certainly not with that team selection and display sorry people but this is my thinking and tav was hopeless last nite.
27 Jul 2019 00:41:29
A win in europe is a win . No matter who we play against. stand up and support the team through good or bad. we could easily have won 5-0 last night. Sick of our own supporters bashing the team. happens way too often.
27 Jul 2019 06:48:31
I thought all that passing got us 2 cracking goals did it not?
27 Jul 2019 07:17:25
What was wrong about team selection? I was a bit unsure at start about playing Edmunson. Watching game tho the big fella strolled it. Its goldson who should be dropping out he's bit suspect at times.
27 Jul 2019 09:54:35
Bit harsh mate. We definitely did try to walk it in a bit n get the perfect goal but there keeper also had a blinder we missed a pen, could have just as easily been 5.
27 Jul 2019 11:38:05
Correct gersdaft. Some would still find reasons to moan even if we win the league by 20 points this season.
26 Jul 2019 22:09:49
Aribo is going to be worth 50-60 million player if given the right platform and the boy Edmundson is going to be worth a good 40 million he's only 21 and would give Gough and Butcher a good run for their money . onwards and uowards.
26 Jul 2019 23:47:56
You on the drink the night?
27 Jul 2019 02:26:10
I think 75-90 million for Stobo and 62.5milkion for the other. Any more bids?
26 Jul 2019 21:51:29
sports direct announce a possible £600m tax bill. The fat man ranting and raving blaiming everyone and anyone. Had too laugh.
26 Jul 2019 22:12:07
Hope it ruins the fat rat👍.
26 Jul 2019 23:31:50
Well I reckon he's been playing with fire for far too long Thinks he's about to save the High Street but knows himself there is still a lot of cash to gain from it! Only in it for himself! I really hope he gets took down a peg or two! Every man and his dog is getting fed up with this man! Pure greed! I hope Rangers and Newcastle Utd can move on and fans can enjoy the good times again
I mean the man has claimed to have bought a Brazilian player for Newcastle in the past week! Claiming it's out his own pocket when an actual fact it's the fans that bought the player by subscribing Sky
He buys players off of the Sky TV fundings and pockets half or more of the sky revenue! The boy is a joke!
26 Jul 2019 23:48:49
On sky news. Belgium authorities fining him for unpaid taxes.
26 Jul 2019 19:22:09
Can we open a discussion on best away European tie that individuals have attended.
Mine would be Lyon away 3-0 the Gers
Also loved Manchester 2008 although we lost, so many bears in the stadium.
26 Jul 2019 19:45:57
Yeah Manchester was one of the best days of my life, good game too.
26 Jul 2019 20:20:39
My favourite away european game would have to be at borussia dortmund's stadium, excuse the spelling the westfalion. Was there with my late dad, god bless him and many friends. What an amazing stadium and incredible atmosphere, even though we lost after extra time, to a goal from fredie bobic. We beat them 2-0 at ibrox and the yellow wall beat us 3-0 after extra time over in germany. What a noise in that stadium that i'll never forget.
26 Jul 2019 20:32:15
Leeds utd 1 down at ibrox GMc great goal. Gers win 2-1. Elland rd. MH carbon copy goal of GMc. 2-1 gers 4-2 agg.
26 Jul 2019 20:33:05
SGL nosiest stadium I’ve been in.
26 Jul 2019 20:49:45
Over in Holland, in 78 after drawing
Nil nil at home with psv and then winning 3 2 over there with a class
Goal by Bobby russel.
26 Jul 2019 21:00:50
Manchester was bonkers but was in Porto for 1-1 mccormack last min equaliser helped us qualify for last 16
brilliant day &’some flight home that night!
26 Jul 2019 21:09:42
Sorry for playing the auld card lads but was at Barcelona for cup winners cup win. Nothing will ever beat that for me.
26 Jul 2019 21:22:24
Macbow, I remember that game well and if my memory serves me correct we broke a long unbeaten record psv eindhoven had at home that famous night. Cracking memories of the famous.
26 Jul 2019 21:23:36
Jaws. I was not allowed to go, my father did.
26 Jul 2019 22:26:25
Albertz goal v Parma 1998. What a night that was.
26 Jul 2019 23:42:21
I would have to say taking my father at 80, his brother, my son and myself last year Ufa home. My Dad and his brother had been born and bred supporter including the disaster but didn't have opportunity to attend for decades. Sitting in the stand amongst our own with my dearest will go to the grave with me.
27 Jul 2019 00:52:54
When we beat CSKA Moscow in Bochum 1,-0 and ian Ferguson's got the winner, was freezing but a great night, and formed a good relationship with VFB Bochum which stands to this day.
27 Jul 2019 09:33:28
Good tjjb. I know I asked about best away game, but great memory for you.
My all time favourite home Euro tie was 78, we bear Juventus 2-0, Dodd is scored first. Jive had nine Italian internationals in team.
What would Alex Doddie McDonald’ be worth in today’s game.
Also who could forget our demolition of PSV 4-1 in champions league.
27 Jul 2019 11:42:24
It was the exact same scenario for me john25.My dad was at the ECWC final in barca, i wasn't allowed to go as i was too young.
27 Jul 2019 18:46:28
Good point John25 What would wee Doddie be worth in today’s market. Also guys like Dave Smith the mind boggles what they guys would be sold for now.
26 Jul 2019 18:23:32
What do we all think of Tom Miller on Rangers TV? I mean no harm to him and know he is a die hard but I think his commentary is woeful. Surely we can do a bit better?
26 Jul 2019 18:39:29
He makes my ears bleed, I turn the volume down as I can't stand his voice👍.
26 Jul 2019 18:39:50
I watched game in Jamaica and was glad to listen to Tom's familiar tones, RTID.
26 Jul 2019 19:30:49
Cringeworthy every time. A good rangers man but not a good commentator.
26 Jul 2019 19:40:55
I have no issue with Tom's commentaries, he is certainly more positive than many on here!
26 Jul 2019 21:03:13
No as bad as rob McLean . and I don’t Kn what colour his nose is . heard more excitement coming out of vicktor meldew.
26 Jul 2019 23:45:31
I also have no issues with Tom, get a grip guys pick your battles.
27 Jul 2019 00:45:24
His commentary is very crinjy.
27 Jul 2019 00:56:45
I live in south Florida and compared to the commentary here he’s the best thing since sliced bread. Way better than the Uk drivel I hear.
27 Jul 2019 05:50:07
I like wee tam, s commentaries, would you prefer Sutton, Walker, Provan, Hartson. No thanks, when you have ex players Bobby Russell, Andy Little, Marco Negri, Steven Smith, Peter Lovenkrands etc RTV is my first go to. Wee Tam is gers through and through, so stop greetin.
27 Jul 2019 09:43:11
Tom Miller rocks, totally unique and great at what he does.
27 Jul 2019 18:54:23
Of course it’s cringeworthy, he gets paid by Rangers. It’s not like he can be honest and objective.
26 Jul 2019 16:54:45
I don't post very often troops, but is it just me or was big Alf playing almost out of position last night? Seemed like he was drifting about everywhere apart from the box, also i thought Defoe gave more in the little time he was on than Alf did in the time he was on.
26 Jul 2019 17:27:04
Alfie looked out of place never mind out of position. I agree sirwalter defoe did do more than alfie and we are much better with defoe. Too many on here can't see the obvious👍.
26 Jul 2019 18:00:17
Including Steven Gerrard? He picked Morelos ahead of Defoe last night. So 'many' on here and Steven Gerrard are wrong but Coldo is correct?
26 Jul 2019 18:18:55
Its a hard one. I think Defoe is the better player and we play better with him on but play Morelos and he will score 30 plus. Defoe won't do that.
26 Jul 2019 18:28:10
Yes mr grumpy gerrard was wrong to go with morelos and also he was wrong to go with ojo👍.
26 Jul 2019 18:54:15
Morelos or Defoe. We need both over sixty game season. Horses for courses, I could see Morelos being left out Aberdeen Celtic games unless he proves he has calmed down.
We r fortunate to have both for now. Imagine semi final and only Sadie type player available
Everyone is entitled to their view and preferences.
26 Jul 2019 19:11:19
I agree C_of_Ibrox but the team will score more with Defoe up top.
26 Jul 2019 19:14:27
Lets hope he reads this forum and follows your unquestionable (supercoop like) knowledge. They'll be no stopping us.
26 Jul 2019 19:48:41
Leeds good call Coop I was 10.
26 Jul 2019 20:04:58
Fingers crossed mr grumpy, pity though he never read it last year when I told him not to play worrall👍.
26 Jul 2019 21:22:02
I'm still of the opinion Alf is a game starter and a grafter and Defoe is more of a bring on later and change the game but at the same time I'm of the opinion that Defoe offers more than alf. Confused? I am. 😂.
26 Jul 2019 21:23:54
Perhaps Alf was just being stuck in the shop window last night? Honestly don't know where I stand with the two of them.
26 Jul 2019 23:39:47
The fact that we won says he wasn't wrong surely?, Even more so by the fact that one of the names mentioned scored.
27 Jul 2019 00:49:43
Alfredo Morelos is the best player in the league. no one will convince me otherwise. my opinion right enough but this boy has it. don't know what it is but he’s got it. appreciate him while he’s here because we will miss this kid when he inevitably leaves for a small fortune.
26 Jul 2019 14:33:27
Messi stalling over contract talks at Barca, think he waiting for a call from Stevie G. 😁😁.
26 Jul 2019 12:43:23
Some doom merchant on here the other day said something like we'd get thumped by Wolves if we drew them in the Europa League qualifiers. Well, Wolves only won 2-0 against Crusaders and that with a late second goal. Not exactly a scoreline to make us tremble? I don't think we need fear anyone in this competition and we'll only get better the more the new squad gels together.
26 Jul 2019 13:13:25
Correct DOIGER. Just need to focus on ourselves. If we can raise the intensity like we did against the mhanky mob last season we’ll give anyone a game in the Europa league.
26 Jul 2019 13:20:27
Regardless of the score they got against crusaders mate, Wolves is a team who were absolutely class against any of the top 6 last season. I do like your enthusiasm and i love rangers, but Wolves would run us off the park.
26 Jul 2019 15:27:02
No chance royalblue99!Heard all this before with english teams going to do this, that and the next thing to us. Remember leeds utd mate. We defeated the english champions home and away pal.
26 Jul 2019 16:42:05
one of my best rangers memories coop. long time ago now though.
26 Jul 2019 18:03:25
As a said i like the confidence, although that was years ago when we had an amazing team, Do you remember the blackburn game that was last week? 1-1 At home against a bottom half champ side team.
26 Jul 2019 18:03:37
Remember leeds utd, are you serious it was 30yr ago coop. We were on a par financially with english clubs and could fight them for the better players. Wolves have a great team, I'm not saying they would run over us but they would be favourites. You can't use a game 30yr ago to make a point, that's up there with your most ridiculous statements. Remember leeds utd😂👍.
26 Jul 2019 18:55:10
Correct re Leeds Coldo.
26 Jul 2019 20:29:07
Think hard coldo and you'll find what i'm saying mate. We were completely written off by most against Leeds United back then and look what happened. We would also be written off if we were to play wolves but as far as I'm concerned, it would be no forgone conclusion they would beat us. The point is being missed because it doesn't matter how good our players were everyone and their granny, said leeds had much better players and need only to turn up to beat us, that's my point.
26 Jul 2019 22:17:18
I got your point coop but back then we were on par. Nowadays if we come up against an english prem team its a completely different comparison to 30yr ago. 👍.
26 Jul 2019 23:32:29
Mrgrumpy, I was actually down in leeds for our 2nd leg at elland road. Have close relations who are all leeds utd season ticket holders.
26 Jul 2019 09:42:20
Rangers tv are showing the derby game live for £12 but derby rams tv are showing it for £7.99. although our club will make a loss on this but surely it will be the same coverage and both teams could/ should have got together on this and came up with a reasonable set price for both sets of fans.
26 Jul 2019 10:16:42
agree re the 12 quid. we are being milked alas. i don't mind supporting club, and do but i don't appreciate being ripped off for a friendly especially.
26 Jul 2019 12:31:20
7,99 sounds reasonable to me.
26 Jul 2019 09:06:42
If Progres are the fourth best team in Luxembourg then maybe we should be looking at the players from the champions of Luxembourg. Although not the fittest team, some of their players were technically quite good and would probably have beaten a hearts or a Hibs team. Maybe the champions of Luxembourg might have a gem or two?
26 Jul 2019 10:18:04
its much easier to pack a defence and have the occasional breakout. doesn't mean that ability would transfer to being able to play football the way we have to.
26 Jul 2019 08:17:17
Thought we played reasonably well last night, few things need looked at but lm sure we will score next week.
26 Jul 2019 07:39:01
{Ed's Note - Ed001 has posted a new article entitled, Review Of The Day 26th July 2019
26 Jul 2019 00:25:02
Few areas need addressing, the over play and dependency on the killer pass, few good links up and sadly a number 10 is missing. I feel camara gives a better balance than jack, who at times got close but lacks that eye.
It’s a games like this when you’re controlling the game and seeking every opportunity that we struggle against teams that sit in.
Again on the flick of 70 mins with not much to do, McGregor is the real deal between a comfortable 2 nil or a wasteful 2-1. We will score over there with the advances we make, but let’s ensure we make the necessary alterations, before we come up against teams, who don’t sit in and can actually hurt us. still please though early doors and much more strength in depth as last year.
26 Jul 2019 08:18:31
Kamara looks tidier on the ball but can be sloppy at times. Jack is all round better player imo. Arfield looked miles off it last night but we knoe he will be fine.
26 Jul 2019 09:12:33
Agree with the Mcgregor praise. Towards the end of last season I actually thought that maybe Fod would push more and might actually be No 1 this year, but after last night you can see why that won’t happen. Great performance, and although he didn’t have much to do, he made some crucial saves, and was our most important player again.
25 Jul 2019 23:29:31
heavens people - this outfit need 3 goals to advance and if that happens well we don't deserve the next round. we WILL score over there so everyone chill, but an improvement required for the danes and i'm sure sg knows that.
26 Jul 2019 06:07:48
Can't argue with anything you said deecee. Yes we could and should have scored more last night against progres, but we didn't lose or concede an away goal. There's still some pre season rustiness, which happens most pre seasons, Calm down as i'm certainly happy the way were going. No doubt we'll score over there. It wasn't an outstanding performance but a professional performance, with minor blips throughout. Big difference within our squad quality from last year, so give the team a little credit some of you.
26 Jul 2019 11:07:31
I actually think if we’d won 4 or 5 null we’d still have folk moaning this morning.
We’ve got to remember, that wasn’t even a full team we had our last night and I believe the starting line up against the danish team will be different.
