MacK1950 2,454 Posted May 27, 2023 Share Posted May 27, 2023 What a final that was, totally engrossed me, and thoughts go out to the young guy who missed the penalty,but you could see in his eyes he was like a rabbit caught in car headlights----utterly petrified. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RANGERRAB 4,059 Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 (edited) Returning to the original post(St Boo 0 Rangers 3) it was good to see us finishing the season strongly. 5 wins out of 5 post split were denied by a late, late goal by hertz last Wednesday in time added on upon time added on(4th official showed 3 mins & they scored in the 94th) Since the turn of the year there have been some encouraging signs…… Both the Cantwell & Raskin signings have been good so far. McCrorie has shown he might be able to replace McGregor(if he can stop flapping at crosses) Souttar has been exceptional since coming into the side. So much so maybe Goldson might start to get worried if we sign a left sided CB to replace Davies who may head back south if the rumours I’ve heard are true. The only concern about Souttar is whether he can play 50 odd games per season. Sakala seems to have found a bit of goal scoring form. RidvannYilmaz looks comfortable at LB although if Galatasaray make a decent offer(as rumoured) he might go MB has made a good impact by steadying a rudderless ship. We ended up with 92 league pts which in most normal leagues ( other than the SPFL) we would’ve been champions. However MB does need more OF wins. Had we got Cantwell & Raskin signed earlier in January they might have started the LC final. Maybe that’s something our ex-DoF could tell us about. A few good signings over the summer & we’ll be better prepared for the new season than we’ve been for the past 2. And(hopefully) we won’t need to make it 3IAR changing the manager 3 or 4 months into the new season. 🤓 Edited May 28, 2023 by RANGERRAB 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil's advocaat 1,811 Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 Good post Rab. I get as excited as anyone else at some new signings, but I'm genuinely looking forward to Beales pre-season influence, and the resultant football, even more than new players. Bring it on. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can at least see what Beale is trying to do by what's happening on the pitch, who he has already signed and who we are being linked with. Beale obviously likes a flexible "hybrid" type player. I think Beale has gained 59 pts from a possible 69 since arriving. That's not bad for a manager coming in mid season. If we can iron out those bumps we won't be far away next season IMO. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
