Did I hear this correctly - someone said at Hampden yesterday that we have only lost 6 times in the League Cup Final? We have played 31 finals and won 25. If correct - thats one hell of a record. Cammy F

One Down – 3 To Go Well, where does one start trying to dismantle the CIS Cup Final? We didn’t really start the game well and were lucky not to be out of the final before half-time. We improved immensely after the break and whilst we had to wait until the closing minutes to score an equaliser, we looked like the only team capable of winning the trophy. However, the impressive Dundee United had other ideas. DUFC deserve credit for their performance but this Rangers side doesn’t know when they are beaten. After the excretions of Thursday, they could have been forgiven for throwing in the towel and moving on to the next game in our heavy schedule. But, not a word of it. They rolled up their sleeves and proceeded to drag themselves back into the game. I don’t know what WS, AMc and Kenny McDowell and the rest of the backroom staff are doing / saying to this squad of players as they appear to like nothing better than defying the odds (and their many critics) by continually battling to gain the results required to ensure that we are still in the running for a clean sweep – lets face facts, at the start of the season, with no ‘big buys’ we couldn’t have dreamt that we would currently be in this position. The first domestic cup decked in red, white and blue ribbons, 3 points clear (with a game in hand) in the league, nicely placed in the Scottish Cup (well, until Wednesday at least) and in the Ã?¼ finals of the UEFA Cup (after giving a more than decent showing in the CL group of death). However, the players whilst deserving enormous credit, cannot rest on their laurels as the hard work starts now. One thing that has come across so far this season is that the players who have been asked to step up to the plate have, as yet, not been found wanting. This must continue, as due to the amount of games and their continued and growing importance, we will require them all the players in the squad to put the team before their own feelings. To be fair to them, they have been doing this, and CIS Cup hero Kris Boyd is a prime example of this. He has had to sit on the bench and watch his team-mates progress on all fronts, but when he was asked to salvage the game on Sunday, he does what he does best – dispatch the ball into the net. Hampden Reaction I hate to piss on our CIS Cup success parade, but there is a section of our fanbase that are never happy. I heard mutterings on Sunday from some fans who were upset at the players performance, the fact that we required penalties to win the cup and the joyous reaction of the players and the majority of the fans to winning the CIS Cup. Can I just remind those fans that it has been 3 years since we won a trophy and ALL trophy successes should be enjoyed as if they were your first / last trophy. I thought that 3 years in the wilderness would have shown this as a harsh reality, but obviously not. We have historically been very hard to please (and I am one of the worst offenders!) but I feel that a small section of our fans take this to the extreme. What did they expect on Sunday? Were DUFC just to turn up to make up the numbers rather than trying to gatecrash the party and actually try and win the cup for themselves? We cannot and will not destroy all teams that turn up to play us. We have to gain the right to win games and trophies. Another disappointing aspect on Sunday was the small section of supporters that abused Chris Burke during the game and more disturbingly, booed Chris Burke when he lifted the trophy. Those who indulged in this (there was some around me) should be utterly ashamed of yourselves. Had to laugh at the DUFC fans chanting ‘United We Love You’. Hell, you love them so much that less the 300 of yous managed to make the away game against Gretna and I’ll bet that your next home gate will be under 7K. Ironic or what? I’ll try and finish on an upbeat note and whilst it was hard to find praise for many of our players on Sunday, Kris Boyd and Alan McGregor have rightly grabbed all the headlines for their heroics but as both were quick to point out, this Rangers team / squad isn’t about ‘individuals’ it is a collective effort. Let’s hope that this mentality can see us through the tail-end of the season and ensure that we have plenty more celebrations come May. Cammy F – Support The Dublin Loyal - We Are The People….

In Burkes defence, he played most of the game wide left - he is a right winger and very one footed (as most wingers are). Wasn't his best game but didn't deserve the abuse he received (at the game). Also, those who booed him when he lifted the cup should be utterly ashamed of themselves. Cammy F

Wunderbar What can you say about the magnificent performance the team put in against Weder Bremen last Thursday evening? This was one of the best European displays at Ibrox for a few years and we deserve our 2 goal cushion going into this weeks 2nd leg. In fact, if Lee McCullock had been a little more alert, we could have killed the tie stone dead. I couldnââ?¬â?¢t have been the only one who feared the worst when I heard the team selection but there is no doubting that WS and his team got it 100% correct. We flooded the midfield which nullified their forward thinking players and we took control of the game from the first minute. Once we had established the tempo, we overran a very decent German outfit. Donââ?¬â?¢t let anyone tell you that this was a 2nd rate team ââ?¬â?? they were the top scorers in this years CL Group stages (they also conceded the most) and are sitting 2nd top of the German League. In fact, a Celtc fan that I know was cursing our luck and blaming the keeper. Ironic that, given the fact the fact that their keeper was a ââ?¬Ë?Timââ?¬â?¢Ã¢â?¬Â¦.. The atmosphere was also superb on Thursday evening but I can remember when that was the norm, not the exception at Ibrox. Itââ?¬â?¢s time that we started to back the team like we did on Thursday at every game. Letââ?¬â?¢s face it, they have done us proud so far, lets see if WE the fans can keep up that sort of performance for the remainder of the season. Scottish Cup The game against Hibs was never gone to reach the highs of the Bremen game, a case of after the Lord Mayors Show. However, another victory, another clean sheet and safe progress into the quarter finals of the Scottish Cup. Hibs never really threatened and if truth be told, we should have won far more convincingly. Naismith, Thompson, McCulloch all had clear chances to kill the game off and we have to be more clinical in those situations. Thankfully those wasted chances didnââ?¬â?¢t hinder or progress into the Ã?¼ finals. Nacho Novo deservedly got sent off for his lunging tackle, but strangely the referee and his assistants allowed Rob Jones to kick, push and cheat his way through the game even when he was on a yellow card. They also failed to notice a hIbs defender handle the ball with BOTH arms inside the penalty box minutes before Novo was sent off. I know people say that the these decisions even themselves out, but I canââ?¬â?¢t be coincidence that the same referee is responsible for all our red cards this season, can it? This Weeks Games It gets harder and harder to keep up with what fixtures we face on a weekly basis, but if Iââ?¬â?¢ve gotten my facts right, we play the UEFA return leg on Thursday then we have our first cup final in 3 years on Sunday. I understand that all games have differing priorities but this week, we require a result and / or performance to progress in Europe (more money and more coefficient points ââ?¬â?? we are blazing a trail for Scottish clubs this season ââ?¬â?? sitting 2nd top of the provisional CL pot 2 clubs). On Sunday, we make a long awaited return to the national stadium for the CIS Cup Final. I may be greedy, but since we havenââ?¬â?¢t won a trophy in some time, I would like to see us destroy DUFC and win the cup in style. In saying that, Iââ?¬â?¢d take a scrappy / lucky 1-0 victory right now. Animals and Sub-humans Now, these are not my words, but words used by an airhostess who had the privilege of being on duty on a flight from Barcelona to Glasgow after a recent CL tie. The airhostess tells of the captain of the flight ejecting 22 fans from the flight before take off. She also tells of fans being sick & pissing in the aisles as the instead of using the toilets. She also tells of passengers making sexist, sectarian and offensive remarks to the stewardess and pilot. Now, given the negative press we received whilst visiting Barcalona who may think the above story was stolen from the unbiased Scottish media reporting on our behaviour. Wrong, this is taken from an air-stewardess whoââ?¬â?¢s Dad works with Mrs Cammy and relates to Celtc fans returning to Scotland after last weeks CL tie against Barca. Here exact words were ââ?¬Ë?These animals are not human, in fact they are sub-humanââ?¬â?¢. Funnily enough, youââ?¬â?¢ll not read anything about this in our unbiased and impartial media though.

No failures last night however, special praise for the outstanding Broadfoot (who continues to impress), Davis, Fergie, Adam and Dailly. MOTM was Cousin - led the line superbly, battled all night and rammed the boos down the booboys throats (shame on them). Cammy F

Sorry, I think its Boyd that doesn't have the intelligence to play in 4-5-1 - the other players look far more comfortable with JCD or Cousin upfront - prime example was Hearts at Tynecastle. Ripped them apart playing football on the ground with JCD then Novo playing the lone role and creating mayhem. Boyd just can't do that. Boyd comes into his own in a 4-4-2 where he has a partner as well as support from the wings and midfield. I cannot see WS adopting his style to accomidate Boyd. Rightly or wrongly, we'll stick to 4-5-1 as its served us well so far this season Cammy F

Apologies for neglecting these recently, but I'll try to get rantings posted from now until the end of the season Nacho Novo Wasnââ?¬â?¢t it great to see wee Nacho score the goal that secured us a last 16 UEFA Cup tie Werder Bremem? The wee man was culpable of squandering a guilt-edged chances at Ibrox and it was fitting that he rammed home the goal that won us the tie on away goals. The wee man may not be the most skilful of players, but he gives you 110% every-time he pulls on a Rangers jersey. Werder Bremem will pose a real threat and will be as good as, if not better than the likes of Lyon, Barca and Stuttgart. It will take a gargantuan effort for us to win this tie. I know that a club like Rangers should be participating at this level annually but in my humble opinion we have more pressing matters on the domestic front as we strive to ensure that we donââ?¬â?¢t complete a 3rd trophyless season. In fact, we have actually done reasonably well European wise in the last three seasons whilst struggling domestically. That is the challenge for WS and his team ââ?¬â?? to ensure that we can regain domestic dominance whilst also challenging on the European front. Groundhog Day So once again the Red Scum were sent back to the frozen North with their fleecy tails between their legs. A visit to Ibrox must feel like Groundhog Day for those who chose to follow Abergreen. Some may say that it is only their hatred for us (only rivalled by Celtc) that drives them to continually turn up to Ibrox and witness their team being dismantled twice a year. Saturdayââ?¬â?¢s game was a very decent game of football and credit to Aberdeen who contributed to the entertainment in the first half. They created numerous chances before we managed to impose ourselves in the game and in the end, we ran out easy winners. Hats of to the impressive Christian Daily and Steve Davis who have illustrated in recent weeks that a stint in the EPL can greatly improve your footballing ability. Anyway, lets all regale the Red Scum with a wee song : 1 year since you won, since you won at Ibrox 2 years since you won, since you won at Ibrox 3 years since you won, since you won at Ibrox 4 years since you won, since you won at Ibrox 5 years since you won, since you won at Ibrox 6 years since you won, since you won at Ibrox 7 years since you won, since you won at Ibrox 8 years since you won, since you won at Ibrox 9 years since you won, since you won at Ibrox 10 years since you won, since you won at Ibrox 11 years since you won, since you won at Ibrox 12 years since you won, since you won at Ibrox 13 years since you won, since you won at Ibrox 14 years since you won, since you won at Ibrox 15 years since you won, since you won at Ibrox 16 years since you won, since you won at Ibrox 17 years since you won, since you won at Ibrox THE SILENCE OF THE SHEEP SINCE 1991 Daniel Cousin So as expected, Cousins projected move to Fulhum has fallen through and the Big Man is back at Ibrox. I for one will continue to give Cousin all my support if and when he pulls on the Rangers jersey. SDM, Martin Bain and McKay have left Cousin in an unenviable position. Everyone knows that you cannot play for 3 clubs in one season and by accepting the bid, they were setting Cousin up for a fall. Hopefully heââ?¬â?¢ll knuckle down and continue to put the ball in the back of the net and help us in our quest for trophies this season. Oh and so much for SDM stating the McLies wouldnââ?¬â?¢t be getting any scraps from our tableââ?¬Â¦.. So The Paranoia Begins Seven short days since Tommy Burns told the world that referees have a tough job and that they get things wrong on occasions (talking about the terrible decision to give diving Naka a freekick that won them the game at Love Street), suddenly the sound-bites from the Towers are oh so different. The Holy Goalie was at it again at the weekend and was gesticulating to the Hibs fans during and after their 2-0 victory and received a booking, where in all honesty, he could and probably should have received a red card. Now, we all know that The Holy Goalie has ââ?¬Ë?formââ?¬â?¢ and is hardly an ââ?¬Ë?innocentââ?¬â?¢ but Chesney will have you believe differently. So instead of claiming that referees have a tough job, suddenly they are all anti-Celtc and the whole of Scotland rejoices when they are defeated. Keep cranking up the pressure Rangers, as wee strapon is ready to implode. Andy Walker Now, I donââ?¬â?¢t like this little weasel for reasons other than he played for ââ?¬Ë?ra selickââ?¬â?¢ but had to laugh and his latest offerings in his media column. He was having a go at Celtc fans for their offensive songs directed at Gazza (no mention of their sectarian and pro-IRA chants) and the Abergreen fans for their songs relating to Ian Durrant (no mention of their vile chants about The Ibrox Disaster and Richard Gough). However, he couldnââ?¬â?¢t pen an article relating to offensive songs without referring to us. He claimed that we sing sick songs about Big Jock (who knew btw) Steins family. I have been following Rangers for too long to remember but for the life of me, canââ?¬â?¢t recall any offensive song relating to Big Jock (who knew btw) family. Andy, like many of your ilk, you are a lying scumbag. Cammy F ââ?¬â?? Support The Dublin Loyal - We Are The People

One of the problems when we play Boyd (and this isn't his fault) is that we tend to play the 'long ball' game and deliver everything in the air to him. He does tend to get isolated and can not hold the ball up, or bring other players into the game (Cousin, JCD et al can). Boyd knows what parts of his game he needs to improve on and maybe its just me, but he doesn't appear to be improving in those areas. I would have JCD, Cousin and Novo up front before Boyd at the moment as we appear to be stuck with the 4-5-1 formation. Cammy F

Voted other as my original Rangers hero was Derek Parlane Cammy F

Davis, Daily, Fergie - either one of those three who were simply outstanding. Can't believe I'm saying this, but is Daily the missing link in midfield that allows Ferguson and Davis to dictate play in the attacking 3rd? Did his job brilliantly on Wednesday evening - protected the back 4 and let Davis and Fergie influence the game in advance positions Cammy F
