The best way to respond? Exactly what we did yesterday. Stand up to them on the pitch, beat them then rub their noses in it. Said when BF was appointed if all he done in his short spell was to instill passion and a contempt for them then it was a good appointment. Given what happened yesterday, he's on the right course.

A few candidates, Butland, Tav and Dessers were excellent but Raskin shaded it for me.

Glad that my post kicked him back into action 😁 He's been poor for a few months but has been played out of position. BF said as much post-match. Kid has talent but also has a lot to learn.

RIP Don. 🙏

No

Been out most of today, but glad to ser Barry showing me what the final score was

Thankfully Dessers has stepped up recently as once again, he is the only viable option we have at the moment. Igamane has lost his mojo and Danilo is out of the picture. An all too familiar story, he's the best we've got and at times he's all we've got.

Rangers 1 v 3 Celtic Dessers FGS

Cheers @Frankie - I think BP and heart rate are just about back to normal, and you had to remind me they we face them on Sunday 😁

Tav for me, two match saving tackles and led the way in the penalty shoot-out. Butland had some great saves and was immense at the penalties, Souttar was very good as well.

Phew....... Something magical and mystical about Thursday nights.....

Poor 1st half, all to do in 2nd half. Atmosphere poor as well hopefully performance picks up

Rangers 2 v 2 Fenerbache Cerny FGS

100% this. We (using the term loosely) tend to berate players who are actually available to play and contribute (Tav and Dessers) and "elevate" players who are injured / not contributing (Ridvan).

Former Turkish international Nihat, now a television pundit in Türkiye gave his thoughts on Rangers' performance in Istanbul last night: "I still can't believe what we watched. But let's be honest here - it should have been 5-1 and if Cyriel Dessers' shoulder wasn't as muscly, it would have been. Every top club in Turkey should be fighting to sign him. But there were plenty of others. Mohamed Diomande was brilliant - like the best of Zinedine Zidane - thank God they substituted him. And what a player Vaclav Cerny is. Honestly, the goals Rangers scored were like from a Playstation game - they were all so easy for them. How can Fenerbahce - a team who restricted Galatasaray to almost no chances at goal last week - give Rangers so many opportunities? Jose Mourinho went all-out attack in the second half and treated a team like Rangers like they were playing Rizespor. It was incredible because Fenerbahce were in such good form and then produced that. It was a crazy match and the tie should be over."

All players contributed to a fantastic team performance. For me Dessers, Cerny and Dio were the standouts and gone for Dessers but there is a case for most players to be honest.

First time Fenerbahce have lost a home European knock-out tie.

Echo these sentiments - RIP Christopher 🙏

Just been sent this and don't know if its true (one for the statos). If Barry Ferguson leads us to a victory next Thursday he'll have managed as many European Knockout wins in a week as Celtic have in 20 years.

Current mood and walking into work tomorrow morning
