I'm genuinely gutted tonight as I feel that the league is essentially done and dusted now. I really thought we were building momentum but it appears now we look like a team that will struggle that will put together a sustained run. Draws are as good as defeats these days and now that the Tims have ironed out much of their early season rustiness, our league challenge is over IMO. We may not win it but it is far from over. Kilmarnock will take points off of most teams. Just thank god we don't watch them as our team. No wonder Scottish football is knackered when the second top team in the league can produce nothing better than ten men in their last third for 95% of the game. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are so reliant on going down the wing that it looks like we don’t know how to run the ball through them. So many times there were gaps that could be run into and we passed it (square or backwards). On Killie, they are one of the dirtiest teams I’ve seen. Every dirty trick, they used it. The ref lost control of the game from kick off. He was less than pathetic. Was the Morelos booking for a dive correct or was it a penalty? Morelos got booked for dissent after he didn't get the penalty 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite this we still played it out to the wing at every opportunity. Very frustrating to sit through. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely finishing a strong second must be our aim. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranger_syntax 4,422 Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 The second half, in particular, was terrible. We looked like we had no idea how to play football. The manager needs to get a grip of this quickly. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just can't see Celtic dropping many points now that they have had their blip. On the flip side I cannot see us not dropping points (especially on the road) 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of the better teams play each other and we play lower end teams. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need to come out of it at St.Mirren and start scoring goals and winning matches again. No we haven't! September/October has always been when the Rangers have started to get going. The last few years we've been absolutely dire on the heavy ground. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFK-1 1,693 Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 I have been working and didn't see it in fact just discovered the result and the stats seem to tell a familiar tale. We had 61% possession and 19 shots at goal against 7 for Killie. We had 7 shots on target against 2 for killie and 13 corners against 4 for Killie. We're outplaying these teams and failing to win. I just don't know what to make of it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
