Noticed a huge bunch of bears stuck in between Frankfurt fans in the top corner.
Anyhoo...Go Rangers!!!

He didn't let us down in the semi.

Where are the fans? Thought they would be in the stadium by now. Hearing rumblings of ticket issues

We need a really mobile front 3 from the start.
I'm still in 2 minds about this🤔🤔🤔

At some point we are going to have to give some of these young players , our own youth , a chance . We need to stop bringing in EPL youngsters on loan and paying fees .
Our youngsters were all excellent today .
👏👏👏👏👏👏

I know it's possibly easier to comment on this with hindsight but I feel we have managed the team/squad in the last 3 league games well considering we have 2 finals around the corner.

Sadly it will be probably in the house in the bedroom. I'll be a nightmare so I'll make sure I'm locked away from my family for the duration of the game. I want to remember the game as 2008 was a bit of a beery blur tbh.

Not 100% official but as good as.
I think most of us were dreading the team wearing lilac for such a big match.
It's truly horrible. I'm not saying I am too superstitious but we've generally played keek in that strips for some reason.

We'll be wearing an all blue strip in the final (I'd have preferred white shorts and red socks but hey ho).
Is this confirmed Gonzo? Was having nightmares about that putrid lilac strip making an appearance in a Euro final.

Horrible. Looks like a cheap training top. Saying that, most of the Castore strips look like cheap training gear (apart from this season's home kit)

Seems strange to preview the 3rd kit for next season before the 1st and 2nd kit?

I may get slaughtered for this but can it really be argued that it would be better than the achievement of being the first British team to win the Euro Cup in 1967? That same year we also got to a Euro final and should have won it if we hadn't had to have Roger Hynd at CF. Scotland also beat the world champions at Wembley so it was a vintage year for Scottish football. You have a very valid point about the financial disparity though.
I disagree 100%. If we win this it eclipses anything previously achieved by a Scottish team in Europe. The landscape of football gas changed so much in the last 30 years.

Nottingham Forest and Aston Villa both won the European Cup but didn't finish top of the league.
Villa and Forest won the league the year before they won the European Cup? Forest retained it based on being on the previous years existing champions.

These day's you can win Europe's top prize and not even be good enough to win your domestic title ,bring back the old knock out system I know that whenever happen because the television companies call the shots
I hear this a lot but seriously who wants to watch Valetta of Malta Vs Real Madrid in the European Cup? Better distribution of monies by having less places for the top leagues would be a better option IMO.
Renaming the premier tournament would also help. Drop the champions league title and use something else.

Average because the opposition in Scotland is so poor in Europe we've probably overarching but I will accept that .
Being of the older generation I remember when teams from Scotland always did well I the three European tournaments
I get that but there is no point comparing today's European football with 50 years ago. They are two completely different scenarios. Back then you could win the European Cup by getting a decent draw and effectively playing 9 matches. We've played 18 games in Europe this season. Back then the financial disparity between leagues was smaller compared to the chasm that exists between the top leagues and us today. Dunfermline getting to a euro semi final proved that.

If we are in the blame game, what about the sitter Kent missed at the end? It was harder to hit the keeper.
Either way I'm proud of our team but something wasn't right tonight. Too many players underperformed on the biggest stage. Tav looked like he had just taken up football yesterday. I also thought the fans were strangely subdued? It may have been different in the stadium but it came across that way on the TV.
