Might be clutching but didn't Kuhn have a wee nick on Diamonde prior to scoring their 3rd?

Cerny and Diamonde were subbed off.

Hardly dominated.

Maybe much of their poor performance was down to us? Just saying...

I disagree. We are seeing signs of progress. What are the alternatives? Sacking the manager and going back to square one (again). And spare me the most successful club nonsense. That has always been an embarrassing and utterly empty title.

On the plus side...that was the best they have to offer. We were missing Souttar and big Kasa (with Cortes and Matondo yet to return).

I see you waited until AFTER the game to make your point.

Ultimately its disappointing to lose in that manner but I'm still proud of the team. Personally, I would have started with Danilo and Igamane but hindsight is a wonderful thing. One nit pick...why did Tav move onto corners (outswinging floater) after Hagi caused chaos with the in swinging corners?

Subs!!!

Maybe multiple assists and the ability to integrate well with the 3 other attacking players?

Agreed. Tav and Ridvan are great options coming off the bench IMO. Especially if legs are tired and the game is stretched. It will also be interesting to see what happens if we score first. We've not scored first in a meaningful OF game since Hellanders header.

Rangers 3 Celtic 1 FGS Danilo

So if everybody's fit...who starts? Ridvan or Hagi? Sterling or Tav? Decisions, decisions... If Souttar and Hamza make it, I would go with the same team as last week (RC) but with Sterling replacing Tav at RB and Diamonde coming in for Baron.

Just a wee side note. Gusty winds and rain expected around 3pm today.

Regardless of the starting XI we need to give them something new to think about. Too many of their midfielders and defenders get to stroll through these games with ease. Much of that has been down to our piss poor press and the lack of mobility in our number 9. I don't want to Dessers bash but the fact that we have effectively had to play him has majorly hampered our progress in these games. The last run of games has shown that if we defend from the front we can control games and our mobility in the front 4 will be key.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Hopefully this is not too negative on the eve of the cup final but what if we lose tomorrow? Are people wanting Clement to go? For a lot of people, I think it will come down to the performance (win, lose or draw). I want him to stay either way as we are starting to see signs of progress with all the young players.

The thing is, this references a slogan which is utterly hollow and built around lie after lie. How's about this? To be a Ranger is to sense the sacred trust of upholding all that such a name means in this shrine of football.

Either way any reference to this loathsome individual, his overall concept or his insane followers is sad.

Hardly surmising. The only people who use this term are Trump and his mentally ill acolytes. Adding the stars and using the same font just reinforces that this was done knowingly. I also agree with the overall "sentiment" but having ANY association with these lunatics (however subtle) is sad tbh.

It's not about being triggered or not. We have 150 years of amazing history and a tifo is created with a knowingly direct reference to a convicted rapist. Well done.

That Trump inspired tifo was embarrassing.

Thank god he is...

Teams out... Ridvan and Jefte both start. Tav starts. Diamonde starts. Igamane starts. Bajrami starts. Cerny makes it.
