Lafferty's introduction had a big impact today. I have never been his biggest fan but credit where credit due, we know where his heart lies, and he had big positive impact in difficult circumstances today.

agree bankie,

i’m not his biggest fan either but the lad gives everything for the jersey and most import he gives us the option to go more direct

he had 2 cleared of the line (shd prob have scored) but won flick on for tav to cross for the winner also put himself about won some tackles and headers, came short to let fredo run in behind for winner and changed tempo of the game

up till he came on st. john bullied us and bossed it

id start laff and fredo up top next 2 games we need to pose teams more of threat earlier in games.

Id love to see us simply go for it against septic. i'm not saying we would hump them because truth be told they have a better squad and bonded team. But on our day we are capable as proven in Europe against far better teams than septic. We are 3 or 4 players short of the Rangers standard. I've watched celtic ruin opportunity on many occasions when their on top through a lack of squad investment. Some would say shrewd business sense, some would say penny pinching.

I've watched us implode with the 10 in a row obsession. that's where it started. I read their "ignore" the 90s and 00s glory posts and smile because I see what's coming. Anyway fellow bears have a great xmas and follow we will. Fingers crossed that we show them what were made of and they leave with something to think about. No laps of cringey honour, no spitting, no scarf tying nonsense. Applaud the fans. Walk off with real dignity. Simply smile.

If by 'Rangers standard' you mean all those teams in the past who have battled and shone to deliver us entertaiment, joy and trophies in abundance - we are eight or nine players short. We're progressing well, the past 6 months have been a revolution and a revelation, and Stevie G will eventually deliver, but there's a long way to go before we can start saying this team is 'Rangers standard'.

Agree on McGregor and possibly Alfredo Rangers class. The rest need to take a long hard look st themselves. It's not always skill you need but a big heart to play for Rangers.

Burnbank i'd settle for 3 or 4 :) The early 80s team was far from Rangers Standard ;)

SG has to match Celtic up in middle of park so he won’t go with 2 up top. He could play Lafferty just off Alfredo and give options of going long with runners off him.

'the rest need to take a long hard look at themselves'.

What are you on about? A point off 1st place with a brand new team and manager?

Jack, Goldson, Tav, Barisic - all good enough, we are just missing a couple of players in the middle of the park for goals and creativity.

Scotty 123. Rossiter. mcrorie Flanagan. Jack. Grezda. No where near good enough to play for us. SG. Is sick of Rossiter and barisic constantly injured. When I say a big heart I mean constantly make yourself available. John Brown style. I agree the 80s team weren't perfect. jordan Jones. Davies and a goalscoring midfielder we have a chance. We miss Murphy.
