Uilleam 5,960 Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 (edited) A dangerous tactic against a better side, but when your defence doesn't, well, defend, then why bother with it? We lost 1 goal in the first half, due to bad defending (possibly compounded by slack goalkeeping), and none in the second half, without a recognisable 'defence'. I don't know what the moral of this story is. Edited April 1, 2017 by Uilleam 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveC 150 Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Yeh many thanks! My sun drechched week has come to an end. Back in UK later. Will be there v Killie on Wednesday!. That's the spirit. Btw, Garner's goal was wonderful. So wonderful that the BBC could not help but be effusive and congratulatory in describing it - or could they not: "Joe Garner was one of three Rangers substitutes introduced for the second half and the forward has brought his side level, converting a left-foot shot following Kenny Miller's pass." 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinker 887 Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Abject first half, absolutely terrifying, gung-ho second half that almost paid off, but also almost blew up in our face. My left ventricle isn't going to hold out for the season if we do that every week! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uilleam 5,960 Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Abject first half, absolutely terrifying, gung-ho second half that almost paid off, but also almost blew up in our face. My left ventricle isn't going to hold out for the season if we do that every week! We must not forget the appalling opening 45. Pedro C's 3 substitutions will be the talking point, but prior to them the performance was piss poor, and looking like the players had returned to Sq. 1. As for your ventricles, gird up your loins, man, gird up your loins!! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ranger_syntax 4,422 Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 We will need to do better than that. The half time changes were bad. The team didn't look like it knew what to do in the second half. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rousseau 10,820 Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 All the changes were forced. To be honest, if we approached the second-half the same as the first with those players -- Halliday, MOH and Toral at the back -- we would probably have been beaten; forcing them back helped ease the pressure on the back four -- other than the scary counters! -- and allowed us to start the half on the front-foot. PC changed it completely, going gung-ho; it could've worked, but it could've came back to haunt us. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
