03 Dec 2016 21:03:54
Saw Forrester shooting instead of passing to Waghorn who was screaming for it, this needs to be sorted as too many times the player doesn't pass to a team mate who is all set up to score.



03 Dec 2016 21:11:15
I thought he was unlucky not to score.



03 Dec 2016 21:35:22
I thought the pass was the best option myself tbh. to many times I've seen this happen with this team. that's what seperates decent players from the really good players, when to pass it at the right moments.



03 Dec 2016 21:57:10
I thought he was right to shoot and unlucky not to score, the ball would have been cut out before Waghorn got it.



03 Dec 2016 22:39:40
Just beat our closest rivals in a tough match and we're moaning about a player not passing? Imo we mess about far too much on the edge of the box our directness was key today and didn't stop trying even after going ahead give the guys at break.



03 Dec 2016 23:14:25
It happens in every match around the world a player shoots when he should of passed it. I've seen Ronaldo messi and all the top players plus average players do it. It's part of football.



03 Dec 2016 23:25:57
Yeah, good to win against them but does that mean you can't point out deficiencies during the game? I bet you they will talk about it in analysis.



04 Dec 2016 07:36:49
I bet Waghorn eats himπŸ˜‚.



04 Dec 2016 08:27:07
Bluepete the reason a lot of people are peed aff with Warburton is because of the manner of the defeat midweek and also the recent performances of which some have been utter garbage. Let's be honest we were very fortunate yesterday while not taking anything away from us! Will Warbs stick it out? I don't it? πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§.



03 Dec 2016 20:37:32
warburton talks o classy midfielder what we need is a big kick your head ofsweeper and two centre halfs to match although clint hill helps.



03 Dec 2016 22:29:14
We going from 4-3-3 to 5-3-2 now?



03 Dec 2016 20:35:29
Finally a bit of fight. glad we won but more glad of determination especially when the players sticking up for each other. next i'd like to see wallace lose it with under performing player on the pitch an give him a roasting. for me verdicts still out on warbs an players tho.



03 Dec 2016 21:14:04
Not sure if I would want McInnes as manager if Warburton goes. HIs team selection played right into our hands and to play that big lump of wood up front instead of Rooney was incredible. All they seemed to do was lump the ball up to him. Full credit to the players today as they battled the entire 90 mins. Need to show these qualities away from home now.



03 Dec 2016 23:18:48
Biffo if Warburton does go we need better than mcinnes. Say what you want about rodgers but he has managed one of the world's true giants liverpool. In my opinion if things don't work out we need a top class manager to match rodgers and celtic. And mcinnes and the usual suspects linked with us won't do.



04 Dec 2016 12:03:42
biffo, Warbs ain't going anywhere, anytime soon! Try getting behind the manager and the team until the end of the season before you pass judgement! Is that too hard to ask? As for del boy mcinnes ever becoming our manager, imo not in a month of sunday's as i've continually said on here! He's not got it to manage glasgow rangers!



04 Dec 2016 18:09:51
Welcome back supercooper, noticeably missing after wed nights shambles soon as we win back on with the Warburtons the best routine. Nice one.



03 Dec 2016 20:31:55
Hats of to every rangers fan at Ibrox today. Atmosphere was bouncing and we all really got behind the lads. Well pleased about the result. Only negative was clinties red card. Happy bear tonight.



03 Dec 2016 21:02:32
Lets hope the fans can stay positive hearts and aberdeen will drop points before the end of season when we lose a game in quite a lot of supposed to be fans its the end of the world eg get rid off mw dw get rid of certain players and so on keep on supporting through good and bad.



03 Dec 2016 21:40:31
I think the penny might b starting to drop with MW in terms of team shape and tactics. i think he's starting to realise we can't try and play this tika taka out from the back all the time type of football as we seen a lot of balls getting knocked into Garner today to hold up and midfielders trying to get closer to him.



04 Dec 2016 12:19:41
The magic hat has returned! 2nd spot almost gaurenteed! Big signing in January (on loan and injury prone lol ) onwards and upwards, the debt I'm talking about! Maybe Aberdeen and hearts should run up SOFT debts of 10 million plus to get 2nd? Fair enough guys?



03 Dec 2016 19:36:56
Told you we'd win.



03 Dec 2016 19:36:04
I have been a critic of DK for some time, about the way he has handled our financial situation, but after a long chat, today, with someone who has a clear insight into where our club stands, I was reminded of something of something my old grandfather used to say " you can only piss with the cock you were given. "
Dave King and his "soft loan" gang are out on a limb, and at the end of the day might get their fingers burned, so fot that I respect him, Mr Parks and Mr Letham for the fact that they put their love for our club before their financial judgement.
As I have stated many times we are vulnerable, but I will only lose a few quid if things go tits up, but these guys will lose millions.
So maybe it is time MW realises just exactly what this club means to a true bluenose, and not a slockbroker who thinks he is one.



03 Dec 2016 20:51:47
How can you disagree? I did tell you.



03 Dec 2016 20:58:18
billy that's why its vital warburton gets his act together my fear is he can't and bums can't be put on seats next year there is so much resting on it if he can't do it he has to go.



03 Dec 2016 21:12:41
Bigwull, I still do not agree with DK, but Warburton must realise that every single person around about him is a bluenose to the core and his simplistic lessons learned etc. in not worth two bob.



03 Dec 2016 19:32:10
Just watched big Clint Hills post match interview on YouTube. Excellent performance today, very good interview, seems a class act. Much happier overall bears.



03 Dec 2016 18:51:44
Take a bow Rob Keirnan and Clint Hill.

What a performance. Clint Hill has had more impact on the defence in less than half a season than Sir David of Weir and Mark Warburton have had in over a year.

Imagine we had written him off after a friendly against Burnley and Andre Gray.

Immense today, both players.



04 Dec 2016 11:45:13
Great 3 points fellow bears - delighted for hodson huge game not played much but the lad is a proper defender and stood up well especially after an early card

I still think tav has something to offer us playing further forward as he has pace and carries the ball with the insurance of hodson behind him. hill was also good and organises the defence. garner worked his socks off think dodoo possibly better as an impact sub. would love to see rossiter in there as a disciplined holding mid.

we must show that desire and application every week now.



03 Dec 2016 18:19:08
Better today, more fight but still think 4 4 2 would be a better system.



03 Dec 2016 18:32:04
Agree

Fod

Hod Hill Senderos Wallace

Tav Halliday Windass/ Holt Mackay

Miller Garner

Would like to see the above given a go. I can't see how Senderos can be worse than Wilson/ Kiernan. If so, he shouldn't have been signed. Holt gives energy but is lightweight and carries no goal threat. Halliday is an honest trier but has little creativity so can't play further forward. Again, why was crooks signed she seemingly so similar to Halliday? Interesting to see washroom feature today but he is not and never will be a winger.

Centre back, centre mid needs addressed in Jan if funds allow, but it worries me how few signings are working out. Garner tries like a bear (boom, boom) but where are the goals and quality?

Got to build on today.



03 Dec 2016 18:43:18
I think Kiernan did well today. Strong and solid and committed.



03 Dec 2016 18:43:26
Washroom ha, ha predictive textπŸ™Š

Waghorn!



03 Dec 2016 18:58:16
Gave me a chuckle thatgharrower see some cracking stuff on predictive text!



03 Dec 2016 19:38:36
Crooks more likely to be a holding player, Halliday can be used more attacking.



03 Dec 2016 23:00:03
Opposition teams, home or away, are either parking the bus and hitting us on the break or being really physical. Aberdeen like Hearts were the latter. So happy our boys dig in and got the result today. Rob Kiernan was immense and I think showed why MW stands by him. Also, MW's changes changed the game which should be applauded.
PS We as fans were amazing too. take a bow Bears.



04 Dec 2016 11:42:20
Quality? Did u not see the pass for millers goal?



03 Dec 2016 17:47:54
Best game watched all season. Fight and Hill and Hodson class. Might show Tav what a back does.



03 Dec 2016 18:21:58
Great result, good to get 3 points. A few good individual performances but what is happening with Barry McKay? I'm going to be honest he gave the ball away and ran into trouble throughout the game. Still what matters is the 3 points.



03 Dec 2016 19:00:39
Thought keirnan was solid today, still felt MHO offered nothing today, and garne put himself about but needs to spend less time on his arse, worry about his shooting capabilities also.



03 Dec 2016 19:11:11
God I thought Barry McKay had his best game in ages looked more like his old self Hodson was great but my MOM was Garner he worked his socks of was in the faces of the Aberdeen defence all game.



04 Dec 2016 11:44:13
Guys. look at the table. We're second. Ye been frustrating and worrying on occasion. but what did we really expect. We will progress. In Warbs we trust.



03 Dec 2016 17:35:23
So McGhee's team laid down yet again after leading 2-0. He must have been scared that Motherwell were going to win.



03 Dec 2016 18:07:27
Think about what u just wrote there! How can a team who scores 3 goals against the champs, More than yous and Aberdeen have scored in 5 games against us be lying down! Don't talk rubbish pal! One of the worse comments I've ever read!



03 Dec 2016 18:29:26
Piss81, just go on to your own site and you will read more rubbish than ever has been posted by us.



03 Dec 2016 19:08:16
Nice one Doiger, surprised it took one of them over 30 mins to bite though. You would think with their constant scouring of these pages, there may have been a quicker response.



03 Dec 2016 20:49:41
dont worry billy first decent offer buck rodgers gets he will be off if he was chocolate he would eat hiself.



03 Dec 2016 21:06:33
Who gives a rubbish about anyone else but rangers WHO CARES.



03 Dec 2016 23:32:17
Saint Brendan will be there for 10 large bill don't u worry about that! And it's not that if he was chocolate he would eat himself, it's just he knows he's a top class manager! Can your magic hat say the same? Or is it even a magic hat now! Because by the sound of it on here he's no longer the best thing since sliced bread! Lol.



04 Dec 2016 04:15:49
Wiss81. Scottish football will revert to type mate. Brenda and his teeth will go back to the EPL to Watford or sumin. who cares? RFC will be back on top of the leagues before you can say all of Paul Mcstay's kids names. That's why no one likes us and we don't care bruh. Anyway, why are you even on this mighty website? Oh, sorry, forgot that is all about the Rangers.



04 Dec 2016 09:28:35
See yous are all convinced that Brendan will be off back to England, well should I say yous are hoping he goes back to England! Lol. when in fact that couldn't be further from the truth! Brendan will be here for the long haul and it sickens you to know that! We all used to have a laugh about 10 in a row but we're not laughing anymore because this is now a real possibility! And nobody likes yous because you are by far the most deluded fans in world football! Lol, you'll be back on top soon! Hahahaha aye nae bother! Even u don't think that's true! But keep telling urself that pal if it makes u feel better every time u see the champs lift another league title! How is #goingfor55 coming along by the way? πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ and I come on here for a rite good laugh, and again I'm not disappointed! Lol.



03 Dec 2016 17:14:51
2-1 acceptale to me against farmers. Look at it from point of view we are new to PL and beat probably 2/ 3 team in league. We are on the up Jam Tarts game not withstanding.



03 Dec 2016 18:21:45
Rubbish mate

Look it like its about time they delivered a performance including not going behind.

Pattick and Ross county in recent weeks were brutal so we were not on the up. Today on matters if built upon. Been saying for weeks hodson in and Tav in midfield.



03 Dec 2016 18:31:52
Last goal was a disaster, especially as I had bet Miller to score the first goal and 2-0. Never happy!



03 Dec 2016 19:39:49
Got to agree with Weiss, Mwell nearly sent them home UNhappy.



03 Dec 2016 17:03:47
Warbs got his tactics spot on today! I liked Tavs in midfield and waghorn looked hungry when he came on. I would tell garner to stay on his feet and stop diving about daft. Hill will be a massive miss for the hearts game. If we can get a bit more consistant with this level of performance we will be fine. Imo we outplayed the aleged 2nd best team in scotland. A few scraps at the end showed a bit of passion loved that.



03 Dec 2016 17:28:21
Totally man.



03 Dec 2016 21:00:20
Today the team showed fight and that won us the game. We don't have a lot of real quality but in this league neither does all the teams with the exception of Celtic and even they are not a quality team. If we outfight the other teams and let them know they are in a battle then we will win the vast majority of our games!



04 Dec 2016 11:31:50
Aye it was a gutsy performance. We showed some character and fight unlike Wednesday.



03 Dec 2016 17:03:25
It's like a different team with people like Hill, Hodson etc!

Good three points, hard fought with some strange decisions from the ref.



04 Dec 2016 11:06:01
Well done Kenny Miller, best player at ibrox before Warburton came and still the best player now.

Where would we be without him? Probably in relegation trouble with the number of points he has earned us this season.



04 Dec 2016 11:06:56
Worst refereeing performance I've seen for a long long time. Good, hard fought win though and deserved too imo.



03 Dec 2016 16:55:30
Better, but let's see how they get on in the next few games.



03 Dec 2016 18:47:12
I just hope big guy crooks isn't written off by fans cause of wed v hearts. That was a big ask being thrown in to game like that not match fit and also not playing his normal position.



03 Dec 2016 16:41:38
Hodson scores and perhaps beginning to get chance to show his ability.



03 Dec 2016 17:02:10
Well done Lee Hodson, a right back who can defend!



03 Dec 2016 16:08:02
Is it 60 minutes yet?



03 Dec 2016 16:32:11
In Warbs we trust -.



04 Dec 2016 11:00:53
More like it, big 3 points and that is the fight required. 1 good game I know but am confident Warburton will ride through this and turn the corner!
Good to see the team sticking together . when the tackles started flying. Got to keep that commitment and work rate going though.



03 Dec 2016 14:35:56
Some of our own fans seem to think we have the god given right to be the best team in the country after what we have been through the last five years! Think of the mess the boardroom and not so super ally left us in! warburton is taking us in the right direction, he has tried a couple of quick fixes with barton and nico but Walter smith never got every signing right! let's just bed in this season and get behind the manager and his team after all we are the people!



03 Dec 2016 15:02:46
if most of the fans can see the tactics aren't working and there are no back up plans etc. why can't the manager? that indicates that he will never have what it takes. therefore should go. we can't afford to wait to the end of the season or we can forget europe.



03 Dec 2016 15:08:40
Thats your closing line, "get behind the manager, after all we are the people". So even if he's just plain rank rotten you are telling fans to just get behind him because of an outdated quote. Grow up. You have no answers to the problem, have you? . So you post then end it with a we ara peepul shout. Whilst the rest of humanity evolves, you keep on revolving pal, round and round.



03 Dec 2016 16:52:51
that's the difference between real fans and things like you bhampot, you know exactly what he means and you are trying to score points on a football website.



03 Dec 2016 17:23:37
well done m13 and cee. its not been pretty and i understand where the what the flange is going wrong is coming from, i was more than a bit nervous about this one myself but this team and manager has fight, has guile and deserves a chance to get it right, even if it takes a season. or more by the way. scoff all you want but we ARRAPEOPLE.



03 Dec 2016 17:38:11
wee bit of euphoria there. i'll calm down by tomorrow.



03 Dec 2016 14:38:11
I watched the premier league show on wed night, mark warburton's good friend was on it, Sean d the burnley gaffer, anyway he was talking about defenders must be able to defend first and foremost before they can pass out from the back, I couldn't agree more, I just wish someone would tell warburton that, because we're not good enough to play that way.



03 Dec 2016 14:20:51
Well done well. They got beat but showed #####. We could take note.



03 Dec 2016 15:05:28
when i saw they were 2 up at half time i thought great-but knowing what scottish football is like. i thought i bet i check near the end and celtic are 3 2 up. nearly right it was 3 all. with 3 minutes to go i thought it l be samo samo 4 3 celtic at the end, and indeed it was. it says everything u need to know about the predictability that is scottish football.



03 Dec 2016 15:17:17
Think it's says more about your team gcameron when Motherwell can score more in one half against us than yous managed in 2 games! lol. good on the well for having a go, but the champs were just to strong! If only our so called challengers gave as much effort then we mite not be a country mile ahead!



03 Dec 2016 15:24:27
Gcameron, but you lot predicted you would do well this season, hows that panning out? . The only reason you thought Celtic would win is because you know how good we are, deep down you know were miles ahead of anyone in the league.



03 Dec 2016
The real time live chat page is open for today's Rangers match at the below link for you to talk to each other during the match
Rangers Live Chat page



03 Dec 2016 13:50:31
Isn't it refreshing to actually have a team put up a fight against the dark side instead of pulling down their shorts and bending over? C'mon the motherwell intae them!



03 Dec 2016 14:06:20
Oooops!

And that is how it's done.



03 Dec 2016 14:13:32
Haha unlucky motherwell, but as i said, good to see a team get in about them, makes a change.



03 Dec 2016 13:21:08
I'm a former regular poster who stopped posting due to getting a lot of vitriolic personal abuse from some of the more narrow minded amongst us.

Everything I got abused for saying has been proven to be correct.

I said in championship that warburtons signings were good enough for that level but would hit a brick wall in spl - correctly.

I said all of kings investment in playing squad promises were lies - correctly

I said warburtons tactics were one dimensional, easy to stop and leave us wide open to any side capable of launching a long ball or counter attacks - correctly

I pointed out Harleys criticism of Warburton at Brentford and his lack of set piece practice, I suggested that was obviously a problem for us now - correctly

In response to being correct I got branded negative, several vile personal comments and best of all accused of being a Celtic fan.

Now that the vast majority of fans now see what I have done from Warburton first game I hope these sad individuals feel foolish.

Warburton must go, otherwise we will go absolutely nowhere.



03 Dec 2016 13:46:40
Welcome back Luigi. Yes you were totally correct it would seem. I bet however, that like the majority of us, you wish you weren't. Would be nice to have a team to be proud of.
Anyhow, don't be a stranger.



03 Dec 2016 14:32:27
I would be surprised if any 'vile' personal comments were allowed on here by the eds. Perhaps they might have missed something. At least you have one fan going by your comments, yourself. Anyway, like everyone else, you are welcome to post your thoughts.



03 Dec 2016 14:44:50
Welcome back stranger, yes your posts have come true, but I think warbs will make rangers a force again, but it's not going to happen over night, it's going to take time, but unfortunately managers don't get time.



04 Dec 2016 12:11:45
True giving a chance we will come good we have to accept second place we will get hearts and aberdeen will drop points just like us but we will get there and hopefully challenge the other mob next season fed up listening to all this negativity without looking at the big picture.



03 Dec 2016 12:55:57
Never mind our players getting into the Celtic team, there's not one of them that would get into that Motherwell team the way they're playing today!



03 Dec 2016 13:03:55
Careful about bumming up motherwell we play them in the cup remember .



03 Dec 2016 13:28:13
It doesn't matter who we play boss, I haven't seen anything this year to suggest we are better than any team. We have nothing about us I'm afraid, no guile, no fight and no leadership and devoid of ideas.
Still watching the Motherwell game and I'll stick my neck out and say, Celtic will NOT lose today.



03 Dec 2016 13:21:42
Finally an spl game worth watching.



03 Dec 2016 14:41:45
No matter how it finishes it shows, as we should all know that no team is unbeatable and it's not "over till its over". we need to get our act together from today and fight till the end. We need to support the manager and team we have at present and get behind them. Anything else is just like throwing the towel in. not the Rangers way.



03 Dec 2016 12:26:05
Biggest Ranger by a mile is John Grieg MBE. He shed blood and still has the scars playing for gers.



03 Dec 2016 13:22:52
Would have said coisty if it wasn't for his plundering of the club's silver.



03 Dec 2016 14:03:27
ally mccoist.



03 Dec 2016 00:20:01
Serious question

Who is the biggest ranger.
Sourness or Walter smith?



03 Dec 2016 00:45:09
Smith by 2cm.



03 Dec 2016 00:56:29
Both are heroes to me IC. Like asking who's your favourite child but my answer would be that we all love our club collectively, it's special to us all. These men are fans 1st so that make them great.



03 Dec 2016 03:10:42
If it had't been for Souness we would not have had Smith so it has to be Souness!



03 Dec 2016 08:11:49
Smith by a country mile if your ralking abt being an out and out Rangers man.



03 Dec 2016 10:41:32
Walter Smith by a mile.



03 Dec 2016 11:26:04
Sourness? Aye, seems serious.
