Whether we like it or not, we are going to have more games like yesterday against Hibs.
1/ because we are in the middle of a huge rebuild
2/ because a club like Rangers needs to be fighting on all fronts. Changes were made yesterday to an 11 who did so well against Malmo to get our Europa League campaign off to a flyer.
Plenty wanted Igamane to get a start. Plenty at the game wanted Dessers on ASAP. Not that I'm slating Igamane's performance. There was a lack of quality service to him at times and his own rawness was on display.
3/ teams like Hibs no longer respect us. They, like others, are prepared to frustrate us with their tactics, knowing that it won't be long before a restless Ibrox will be on our players backs. And even when we go 1-0 up, teams like Hibs will go for it. Hoping to snatch an equaliser and then frustrate us once again.
Respect will be earned once we start burying these teams either through an avalanche of goals or playing them off the park and limiting their chances.
If most are already greeting 6 games in - they better take a wee chill pill as things will not magically improve as we try to build a winning mentality and confidence into a group of players that we expect / hope to deliver success.
Trust the process and fingers crossed we'll get to where we expect this club to be:-
In a position to be challenging/ winning titles and cups on a regular basis. ?⚪️?.

Good post MPH.

Mph. Agreed. too many negative comments. great away performance at malmo then a hard fought 1 nill win to hibs and some complaining. We can't win every game 5 nill. Fact we dug in for the result v hibs shows how far we've come. new signings looking good. Team playing good football and getting results. This season may already be gone but like you say trust the process. We have 2 more windows of pc signings and going bar what I've seen so far they will be ok and should start next season with a team that's already clicked and raring to go.

Knocked it on the napper mph, our squad depth really needs to improve as we’ve had a poor bench for nearly 3 years now and that’s the issue most match days we look at our bench and you’ve only got a few there that’ll make a difference.

Great post MPH, hitting the nail on the head. Also sensible and well thought through.
Lots of room for optimism if changes off the park can result in more money and stability. New coaching team are bringing in younger players and getting the dead wood out. It’s not perfect but there are some shoots.
Fans need to unite. That doesn’t mean we need to accept everything or agree or everything, but the constant negativity has to end.
Also, the season isn’t over. We’re in Europe having started well. Yes we are 5 points behind in the league but 90 still to play for.
I’m with you 100% on your post.

Great post mph. Absolutely spot on.

Well said MPH.

If we get them bedded in and signed early in the window.

I think Hibs played really well and David Gray has them well organised, and I expect them to be the top 4 this year. We had an off day against them but still won.

Even though Hibs chucked on all their attacking players and went for it in the 2nd half we still looked steady to me. Souttar and Propper look better with each game and we now have genuine options at full back.

Good sensible post will never catch on in here.

The same speech has been getting regurgitated for years and the same people are regurgitating the same responses. It will catch on when we start winning and stop making excuses and clinging to hope.
