If we win this easily tonight, we'd better invite back Sykesy to dampen down our belief.

I think the VAR teamnare too busy watching the Celtic game.

Shite weather, shite pitch, shite opposition, shite performance, shite referee, shite var but WHAT A RESULT. 🔴⚪️🔵

Hopefully the manager has learned tonight that rotation may work in small doses but maybe Rugby Park is not the place to do it. Definitely got his starting XI wrong.

Massive bottle shown tbh. Hang that Butland save in the Louvre, that's a Rangers keeper.

That's 2 free headers Goldson has missed. Needs to be scoring from one of those.

Those 3 going on meant that it has the same starting XI that skelped Hearts. That's what we should have started with tonight.

Let him do the penalties and freekicks then.

How they can give the Lundstram one and not that on Mayo is beyond me. Shat it.

Surely that’s a penalty for the handball by Findlay?

Huge improvement in that department since half time 😉

Take a bow Tom Lawrence, won the free kick for the equaliser and scored the second 👌

Well thank the lord for Jack Butland after our left back switches off again (different left back, same issue).

Not really. I was there.

Commendable knowledge in niche-history. BTW, looks like no Roofe tonight, as he did not travel along. No rehab on plastic turf is probably a wise choice.

A rouge missile you say, is that a euphemism for a pastel shaded lipstick?

Don’t forget George McNeil the Tranent sprinter who broke all kinds of records couldn’t compete at amateur level but in the handicaps he was a superstar even beating Tommie Smith the Olympic champion in three out of four races down at Wakefield I believe it was Hibs he played for that barred him from the amateur ranks

Despite having over 2 months to organise, it seems the Rangers Travel Partner has yet again been unable to provide a travel option for Rangers fans. It was announced today there will be no official flight to Lisbon for Rangers supporters to go and see the game. Sport Options, catering for all 5 remaining UK participants in the two Thursday Cups, have yet again managed to put on a flight at a reasonable price. Unfortunately for me, they (rightly) gave fans who travelled with them earlier in the season first dibs and the flight was filled within 15 minutes with hundreds more missing out. It is completely unacceptable for the club to align with a travel partner who cannot provide travel. I understand the last partner got binned for the very same reason but this new one seems equally incompetent. For fans who don’t want to spend 3 days in various airports zigzagging across Europe to get to the game the day trip or 1 night direct option is the only option, and while it is usually much more expensive that is the trade-off and you can make that choice. The club is normally not shy in making a buck out of the fans, and I can only imagine this scenario is costing the club money too. In 2008 the Nithsdale Loyal RSC booked and ran a 240 seater plane at very little notice to Lisbon for our quarter final tie v Sporting en route to Manchester. It was our second charter of the season following another full flight to Barcelona for our CL game the previous autumn. Surely if a supporters club can arrange, administer and run a flight then these travel partners should be able to provide the same?

Long may he continue to lose matches. I have nothing against him, but I do like seeing the sheep fail.

Phew. That was hard. We showed a lot of bottle to deliver that result. I agree the wrong team started the game. I can't believe we didn't get any of our 3 penalty claims. Yet again, another dreadful ref and var team.

Probably would injure his hand on the door...

Butland makes such a difference compared to McGregor last year. Thought Goldson was solid tonight too and won a lot in the air. Should have had a couple of goals too mind you

Two good goals to be fair.

Give it up FFS. He was fantastic on Saturday. Take your Borna blinkers off.

That is a MASSIVE win

Is it me, or was that a hand ball, penalty kick, and second yellow for the centre back?

That looks bad, I think Cortes has been a great signing. He will be a big miss.

Boooooom Guid job the gaffer decided to play Lawence on this pitch 😀

Why? Rotation has worked for 20 odd games for the manager?

Ah, I missed that as was on holiday.

Ridvan is in the adjusted Euro squad so there is less requirements for Borna to get game time for the Europa League.

Surprised Ridvan and Stirling have been rested but in Clement we trust.

In what will be a surprise to absolutely no one... I've got the fear.

It seems appropriate that, tonight, we visit Kilmarnock, in Ayrshire, one of the heartlands of the Covenanters, because on the 28th of February, 1638, in Greyfriars Kirkyard, Edinburgh, the National Covenant was first signed. Today should be a Public Holiday, of course, but what chance of that, under current political arrangements?

I am positive I have seen Red Swingfire listed on the Max Factor Royal Marine colour chart.

Red Swingfire comes to mind somehow 🤔

Tough one today. My PTSD has me twitchin on this one. Too many times that baton was....right there... "Wrong, Do it Again!"

Gaffer showing his support and appreciation for the UB drummer(s). Well played Gaffer 😀
