Well, the nerves have well and truly kicked in. My usual remedy of a few halfs to calm me down before heading to the game is off the table today.
I'm laid up with this virus that's doing the rounds, so it's an alcohol free day with the game on the tv. I'm actually worse watching it on tv than I am in the stadium.
For all fellow Rangers supporters in attendance today, stay safe and give it laldy.
Just win! I don't care how we do it, just do it.
I was thinking of jumping on the live chat, but I think I'll stay away from there today. Well, unless we're wiping the floor with that lot. C'mon!

Sit in your misery and shout at the TV, and keep your lurgy to yourself ? ?. Kidding aside, bud, hopefully a win will be the ideal tonic. Feel better, mate. ? ?

I was so confident that if we played well we'd win last week. I'm not even almost as confident today; I just hope we don't get smashed.
I hope the virus passes quickly for you. I'll more than likely miss part of the game, as I'll be at the hospital visiting my grandad.
Stay safe, everybody.

Hopefully you're feeling better soon, SS. A big win today to cheer us all up would be a great day.

I echo those sentiments, Sunshine.
I would also like to wish you a fast recovery.
I won't see any of the match, but will keep looking at the scoreline.
Stay safe, Bears.

Am the same, Dado. Always hate being confident going into old from game, so am happy I ain't this week.
Get well soon, SS. I fortunately missed it, but the wife had a few days the other week and completely floored her.

Sunshine, get better soon, mate. I will have a few half's on you. ???
08 Mar 2026 12:01:31
SS, Hope you're feeling better soon, bud.
I've not felt this low going into an O.F. Game for a wee while.
Last week is still too raw. Just as well I'm not a coach or a player, I'd have dragged everybody down this week. ?
Anyway, on it from first minute to last, and we're in with more than a chance.

Thanks everyone!
Now the team is out, I'm not surprised Souttar is out. Since he signed his new contract, he has been especially dire.
You're lucky, Storm, as it's floored me too. However, it's just a virus, mate, so we try to get on with it the best we can.
We must start fast, and finish strong. Get into them from the first second, keep it tight, and don't let up. If O'Neil changes things up, DR must combat this straight away if the game starts to turn.

Take it easy, mate. Hope the result will make you feel better. Having to rely on radio, BBC app and chat today. ? Never a good thing.
08 Mar 2026 12:27:05
Get well soon, bud. Let's hope we get a win to pick you up a bit.
08 Mar 2026 12:28:05
Now, I'm going to make a point of logging into the live chat just for you, Forky. ??
