Yeah at half time on Saturday your thinking oh no here we go again. The crap celtic have turned up today
Thankfully we turned up second half
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't think anyone was concerned at half time on Saturday. It had the feeling of the inevitable break through
There have been games where I worried but Saturday wasn't one of them

scales has overachieved and because of that people think he is better than he is.
he's played well i can't deny that, but we need better.
we need a CDM, one who collects the ball, turns and gets the attack started.
one that plays facing the centre halfs and doesn't move more than 45 degrees is no use, neither is one that can't defend.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Scales hasn't had to play at a relatively high level for a full season, and it's starting to show. He did a job earlier in the season, but that's about it.
Our CDM role is an issue for that exact reason - said it a lot that our midfielders don't turn to face the opposition when they receive the ball. Hatate sometimes - but other than that, no.

I'm with JFK on this one as well - put me on the 'I was concerned' list.
liars POV, thats what they are.
"i knew all along we would score"
1 shot, off target in 45 minutes.
did you think we would win all along when we dropped points in all those other games aye?

"it doesn't change too much"
Eh?
It changes everything. I don't doubt we could lose points on the way but I now have every confidence we will win this league and with a bit to spare. It's only ours to throw away now.
i admire your pozziness mate.
a believer, an inspiration.
i always fear the worst, its because one time i had a medical condition and went to get it checked out, before i knew it BLAM! finger right up the pipe, caught me completely offguard, always thought it was a weird way thing for a dentist to do.

Depends where you meet them. Dentists use the Pipeworks too. I’ve had many a big filling there.
A lot of wild reactions after yesterday so a bit of common sense in this post.
The result yesterday is obviously very frustrating from our point of view but in reality doesn't change a lot. We will all be clearer on where the league is going after the final OF game at Parkhead.
I can understand why many now view Celtic as clear favourites but from our perspective its still in our own hands. Think the Manager will need to make a few changes however for the run in from here - a few look like they are on empty and others seem to have hit a dip in form. He has made some big calls before with individuals and might need to do similar if we manage to drag ourselves through the next 6 games.
it changes the nature of the old firm game in that it "could" allow celtic a draw in that match, a win is massive but as i say i would worry about us winning the old firm then dropping points to hearts and killie.
hearing that rangers will now have 4 home games after the split.

Yes true on the dynamic but lets be honest neither team is going to play for a draw anyway.
At the same time if Rangers win their game and hand and its a draw at Parkhead it keeps it as a point with 4 games to go. We know from experience there would still be a lot of football to be played even from there.
yeah i'm not confident, i have a very bad feeling about it.
that said, i would say that on current form things are going better for us.
Going into that old firm it wasn't outwith the realms of possibility for rangers to be 5 points ahead a few days later. Now the best case for them is 1 point behind.
as it stands, i'd say we have been better since that hearts game, where the sending off and ridiculous penalty really done us.

It changes things because it gives a pretty strong response to the question 'do this Rangers team have the bottle to win the league?'.
Its a minor miracle we are even in a title race so I am not ruling it out altogether.
However it would be a HUGE shock for me now if somehow Rangers turned into an unstoppable winning machine after the recent downturn in form.

Dickinson genuinely gave one of the worst performances I've seen a few weeks ago for the Hibs game at Ibrox. No individual big calls but he really struggled to manage the play and seemed to just revert to bounce balls when in doubt. Bizarrely each bounce ball also seemed to start with David Marshall regardless of who had the ball and where.

I see bottle getting rolled out a lot. Its complacency rather than bottle for me. I don't think its fair to call it bottle given its not consistent with what we have seen through the season. Its the standard response when one of us loses a game, particularly at this stage in the season, but Rangers were undone yesterday by their own approach when we never got out a jog first half and didn't take warning after warning when RC played through us. It was just a really sloppy performance similar to the Motherwell home game which we approached in the same way.

Said that last week, SPFL should maybe take a pragmatic approach for the rest of the season. If for example Celtic are due to go there on the last week of the season and there's a sudden downpour with the pitch unplayable what do they do?
Dundee have little to play for so making them play a couple of games elsewhere until they can sort their pitch and ensure all the games are on should be a sensible decision.

It is happening every game - even saw it the Arsenal v Villa - player down in the box, head or otherwise, ref stops the game whilst the attacking team have it and the drop ball goes to the defensive keeper - wtf? There was 4 or 5 Villa players all remonstrating but he wasn't listening.

I see bottle getting rolled out a lot. Its complacency rather than bottle for me. I don't think its fair to call it bottle given its not consistent with what we have seen through the season. Its the standard response when one of us loses a game, particularly at this stage in the season, but Rangers were undone yesterday by their own approach when we never got out a jog first half and didn't take warning after warning when RC played through us. It was just a really sloppy performance similar to the Motherwell home game which we approached in the same way.

A lot of wild reactions after yesterday so a bit of common sense in this post.
The result yesterday is obviously very frustrating from our point of view but in reality doesn't change a lot. We will all be clearer on where the league is going after the final OF game at Parkhead.
I can understand why many now view Celtic as clear favourites but from our perspective its still in our own hands. Think the Manager will need to make a few changes however for the run in from here - a few look like they are on empty and others seem to have hit a dip in form. He has made some big calls before with individuals and might need to do similar if we manage to drag ourselves through the next 6 games.

1/2 Celtic
7/4 Rangers
That will narrow if you lot beat Dundee. For the love of christ this weather needs to improve but maybe Dundee's penalty is no home games after the split just in case, eh?

Said that last week, SPFL should maybe take a pragmatic approach for the rest of the season. If for example Celtic are due to go there on the last week of the season and there's a sudden downpour with the pitch unplayable what do they do?
Dundee have little to play for so making them play a couple of games elsewhere until they can sort their pitch and ensure all the games are on should be a sensible decision.

Rangers refs for their last 4 games
Dickinson
Walsh
Anderson
Robertson
Beaton
Same for Celtic!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Dickinson genuinely gave one of the worst performances I've seen a few weeks ago for the Hibs game at Ibrox. No individual big calls but he really struggled to manage the play and seemed to just revert to bounce balls when in doubt. Bizarrely each bounce ball also seemed to start with David Marshall regardless of who had the ball and where.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It is happening every game - even saw it the Arsenal v Villa - player down in the box, head or otherwise, ref stops the game whilst the attacking team have it and the drop ball goes to the defensive keeper - wtf? There was 4 or 5 Villa players all remonstrating but he wasn't listening.

Where’s this Rangers having 4 home games after the split coming from?

Because we complained that the SPFL wanted to give them 5 home games.
