It's a strange and unfamiliar feeling right enough.

To use your own debating strategy, we weren't discussing Tav's stats. We were discussing his misplaced passing against Motherwell today.

I think most of us realised your mistake but were much to polite to mention it 😂

I thought about Balogun ("too slow and over the hill") and Dowell "(he'll never make it at Rangers") but it's Cantwell for me this time for being pretty much the only naturally creative player on the park.

Yes, let's not talk about it.

If you watch the game again later I'm sure you'll find that, while Ridvan did give the ball away a few times, he didn't do more often than our other fullback.

McCausland shows all the signs of a young player who needs a spell out of the limelight

The team sheet is beginning to look very threadbare.

Beale starting as he means to go on?

Great question but I find it hard to believe we will sign anyone who Clement doesn’t agree to.

When Rangers got rid of Jim Forrest in they committed one of the worst blunders in the club's history. It might be over half a century ago but it was a disappointment I'll carry to the grave. He really was very special.

If they're rejecting it then either the organisers have got their sums wrong and it isn't sufficiently lucrative ..... or the clubs believe it will be prevented from getting off the ground by similar proposals already being formulated by UEFA

Motherwell 0 Rangers 3 FGS Sterling

It's been sobering to be reminded throughout this topic of the sad procession of management disappointments since McLeish left in 2006. Le Guen, McCoist, Warburton, Caixinha, Gerrard, Van Bronckhorst, Beale ........ 17 years of chaos padded out by sundry temporary infills and interrupted only by the returning Walter Smith. It seems superfluous to me to be fretting over who on that list was the worst or the best. I just hope to hell that's finally behind us now.

No one had a great game last night. I'm surprised to see so many votes for Dowell, who I thought had a decent but uninspiring game. It's not long since I scoffed at the very idea of Cyriel Dessers getting a game but here we are .... I'm voting for him as MOTM. Never say never I guess. The standouts for me were Ridvan, who was just awful throughout, and the incomparable Sam Lammers who inspired such hilarity around me every time he tried and failed to impersonate a professional football player.

As I sat there tonight, I couldn’t help but marvel at the sheer entertainment value of Sam Lammers. At times he’s genuinely Chaplinesque in his mastery of the absurd.

That looks OK to me too. This is a game we should be looking to win in the first half

It seems clear to me that Rangers should continue offering corner tickets to Celtic, knowing full well that they won't accept them and won't reciprocate by offering us a similar allocation at the piggery. That way, we are seen to treat all clubs equally while Celtic play petulant games and the outcome is there will be no away fans at OF games - which suits us fine.

The manager must get so bored with the constant drivel that comes at him at press conferences

Give our best response on the park.

Y’know what, all this transfer speculation seems particularly pointless now that we have a manager who knows what he’s doing. I’m finally content to sit back and watch him work his magic without the usual noise spoiling the show.

Listening to this just makes my blood run cold.

I think if we're honest we know that Sima wanting to stay or not will have little to do with what actually happens at the end of this season. It's basically a meat market and there are big £numbers at stake.

It never hurts nearly as much as some imagine. Every player we lose leaves a hole in the squad, some a very small hole, others a seemingly massive hole, but without exception the club moves on and the next chapter is written without them. Morelos was going to be irreplaceable, Tillman leaving was going to be a disaster but somehow here we are without them.
