You can be anti the union and anti Scottish independence; like me.

We're on our way....to Azerbaijan.

I thought you were joking!  I'd assumed the game would actually be in Europe. 

Where's the final?

Morelos was silly and does have temper issues and could have cost the club big time tonight, he is continually targeted in every match he plays in but he needs to learn to control his temper, he let his team mates down tonight and he knows that and has apologised to his team mates.

 

This wasn't a case of him reacting to being 'targeted' though.  He kicked the ball away and then showed dissent.  He's got to cut it out.   

Lost my internet so couldn't see the game but that's an excellent  result given the circumstances. 

No matter how you look at it....this is another two points lost.  The manager was at fault for once but looking on the bright side; as many have pointed out, we'd have lost this game last season.

My main worry about the team is we seem totally incapable of hogging possession and closing a game down when we need to which has resulted in several late goals conceded.

Now we know what the team can do when they go behind.  Came back twice and then went ahead.  Great stuff.

Would take a draw now but wouldn't say I'd be 'delighted'.  Maybe if we'd come back from 2-0 down and had nine men I guess.

 Arfield was also mixing it...

Arfield's behaviour yesterday and needless booking was as bad as anything Morelos has done but the latter attracts criticism more than others; has done since he arrived at the club. I doubt this will change.

Great to see.  Morelos has scored three times; although he should have buried that first one, that was a poor decision.  What a great save from Fod too.  Can only hope Murphy's injury is not as bad as it looked.

I have to agree 100%. I have been following the conversation and thinking about the two ties (Osijek and Maribor).

Watching the matches I was caught between to trains of thought. Were we very good or they poor? I hope I’m not getting ahead of myself but after deliberating I felt we were fantastic.

 

Maribor were a good side middle to front but we coped. Osijek were an irgibised side too and we coped. We look determined, composed and resolute. Maribor are a highly ranked European side, if it were up to me I would ban all the MSM from Ibrox except a chosen few!

 

Okay Donald.  Whilst I'm delighted with the way we've started the season I think we need to keep our feet on the ground.  Both Osijek and Maribor had opportunities against us that better players would probably done more with.  Saying that...I can be a terrible pessimist when it comes to Rangers.

Great result.  

Tom Miller, although a great guy who obviously loves Rangers, is a terrible commentator.  Actually, too often, he's failing to commentate on what's actually happening to the point where I have to turn the volume down as I get totally pissed off with his ramblings about bygone days of yore during the game.  I'm wound up trying to watch the match while he  often seems disinterested and starts asking stupid questions of his side kick.  This week, for example , it was 'that Paul Gascoingne was some player wasn't he?' Sometimes it appears he wants to talk about anything but the match at hand. 

There's also way to much input from the pundit  (nine times out of ten making a pointless bleedin' obvious observation) with him but this a common annoyance with all football commentary these days.

I remember a Rangers fan from Govan telling me people not from Govan aren't real Rangers men.  

 

 

Well we've played in Govan longer than in Glasgow I guess.     I still don't get what  the point of what is being  said here other than the bleeding obvious that we are a Glasgow based club. 

Why 'Our City' ?  Also...surely Bears follow Rangers from all over the world, not just the City the ground is now in.  I really don't understand what the UB is trying to say here.

I thought we played well for the most part, despite the sending off;  no complaints with that decision.

 Jelavic was a Serbian playing for Croatia, methinks). 

Didn't know that...Dado Prso was as well.

Decent performance, excellent result.  

Well done Rangers FC in reporting this moron.  Good report by the BBC too...no paranoia required.

WTF is eerie about the same person having the same views across different sites?

Hopefully, as he was markedly more "up for it" after that incident on Tuesday.

He was but SG took almost immediately took him off.  I know there was a slight chance of him getting sent off but I'd have liked to see him playing whilst 'fired up' for another ten minutes.

Don't mind me.  I just have a thing about misnamed teams.

I can’t remember the last time Ibrox really got going for a European night.  Sporting Lisbon in 2008 maybe?

Glasgow Rangers vs Sporting Lisbon eh? 

Morelos was shite with his attempts at scoring (again) but at least he created a few openings.  Murphy was terrible too.   That was a wasted opportunity to build our coefficient.  

Absolutely delighted with that result.  Had a real fear that Engerland would reach the final the way the draw panned out. Well done Croatia.
