pete 2,499 Posted July 13, 2017 Author Share Posted July 13, 2017 That 0-1 result tonight makes me feel even more sad!!! It shouts out...not only are Progres crap, but Limassol were there for the taking too. That was my first thought as well. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrahimHemdani 1 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 That was my first thought as well. I think AEL will beat them comfortably in Cyprus, watched no doubt by some Bears who had already booked the trip/holidays. But let's make no mistake about it, AEL would have been a tough one for us. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brechin City would be a tough one for us on the evidence of what I've watched so far. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But let's make no mistake about it, AEL would have been a tough one for us. I know it's a long way off but should we not be arranging a number of friendlies throughout the season against the likes of AEL in preparation for next season's qualifiers. And not against the likes of RB Leipzig this time maybe Edited July 13, 2017 by RANGERRAB 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaffer 1,665 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Excuses, excuses....we should have been more than capable of beating a team that finished 4th in the luxembourg league This wasn't an excuse .... I was just stating facts. Maybe you misunderstood. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bearman 9 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Or it means that Progres were a better team than some of us gave them credit for. I've heard this many times and can't buy it...the fourth best team in Luxembourg for goodness sake! How on earth they can be regarded other than cannon fodder shows how far the expectations of the fan base has fallen. This is particularly worrying for me, I can't ever remember in all my time supporting Rangers that any fan, never mind a few defending such a result. Very worrying...sending out the wrong message to the board. Sweeping it all under the carpet as if it's 'just one of those things'. An absolute shocker of a result in all my time...and I'm no spring chicken! The only positive I can take out of it, is that Rangers have gone underground since, hopefully to find time to sort out the mess we find ourselves in. Hopefully. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RANGERRAB 3,741 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 This wasn't an excuse .... I was just stating facts. Maybe you misunderstood. Maybe I did misunderstand your comment but it is totally unacceptable that we got put out the ELQ's by a team like Progres Niederkorn.. Even worse is that no one has resigned or been sacked as a result of last week. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see anyone defending it, or the manager. What I see is people putting it in perspective though. I simply stated a potential alternative view but people like you have already made your mind up and refuse to see anything else. So let me say again for the avoidance of doubt .... I'm gutted we are out of Europe and I believe our team is better than Progres, but if I was them I'd have been thinking that Rangers was one of the best draws to get. We've only just come back to the premier league after our exile. Our fans (me included) still regard Rangers as the team that was, rather than the team that is now. We've got a lot of rebuilding to do. We're still the same club, the same fans, and the same world record holders, but we will be a shadow of our former selves for sometime yet. I just hope PC is the man to help us advance. Do you? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
