The Scottish Cup Final: Rangers v Hibs


Recommended Posts

Halliday ? You must be joking mate. Either that or his goal blinded you. Halliday got caught in possession all day. For me only Zelalem, Miller and Foderingham got pass marks - the rest were poor.

 

Halliday was absent, Miller certainly showed why MW picks him, Fod if we are honest with ourselves is not of the ability of Rangers keepers, Zelalem is not really a player imo, Waggy was unfit and shouldn't have played but our resources are shot.

 

The combination of Wallace and McKay never hit the mark from k.o. Kiernan and to a lesser extent Wilson are no defenders for Rangers.

 

Big work to sort as soon as at Ibrox.

Agree punishment is needed. But clubs should not be punished for actions of their supporters. There is surely enough camera and video evidence to prosecute scores of Hibee individuals.

 

We live in SNPee Scotland. That won't happen unfortunately

I would strip them of it

 

If they don't strip them of the trophy (which i agree they should) then they should ban Hivs from defending it next year. But i think it all depends on how our club deal with it?

 

If the club go down the dignified silence route, after their initial statement the SFA will brush it under the carpet, but if we are vocal about our players getting assaulted it might have the desired effect.

We play a system we play with one up front which requires someone who can hold the ball up front. & bring other into play.

We play Miller in that role who is past his best & totally unsuitable for that role.

If that changes next season there will be significant progress believe me.

From a poster called nelster on FF. He has other stuff re a copper shouting orange bastards as he and others punched bears:

Hibernian fans rushed on field unchallenged.

 

Rangers players were easily spotted being attacked.

 

The Rangers end began screaming at the police and stewards to do something.

 

We got laughed at (more on him another day) and more police seemed to come towards the Rangers support, none entered the field of play towards the rushing hordes. (Key assumption : Hibs are Jolly Craicsters, Rangers are big bad horrible people)

 

Hibs fans made it up to the Rangers goal line.

 

Rangers fans after about 5 minutes of thousands of Hibs fans entering the field, with some taking pot shots at people near front of South Stand decided enough was enough and started trying to get over.

 

Most sections were stopped by the said police officers who punched a number of Rangers fans. West Stand A4 A5.

 

The sections towards the West Stand / North Stand corner who got over, got to our corner of the pitch where a number of Hibernian fans continued to kick out and exchange blows.

 

A charge of Rangers fans sent them back to halfway line.

 

As this charge gathered momentum, Police Horses entered the field to do the job their normal cops had failed to 15 minutes earlier.

 

Rangers fans went back to the stands.

 

Hibs fans refused to get off the pitch.

 

Police Scotland refused to force them off.
