There we have it. A penalty for Killie. Hopefully we can move on to the next conspiracy now.

Which brings us back to the question of why was no mention made of the offside at the time if that was the reason for not awarding the penalty? My understanding isn’t that Rangers aren’t debating whether it was a penalty or not, they are seeking clarification on the award of the offside decision and where it arrived in the process given it wasn’t mentioned till nearly 30 minutes after the incident. You surely have to admit that the officials dealt with it at the time was ludicrous and leaves them open to all sorts of questioning. To add further confusion, the screen at Parkhead said “Penalty Check” but if the check was actually for Offisde then why not say that? And I’m pretty sure the game restarted with a goal kick when the only options would have been either penalty or free kick at the edge of the box where the offside happened?! It’s a complete clusterfuck and I fully understand why we’re challenging it and would encourage other clubs to the same when faced with similar.

So you're telling me that if Aberdeen had been denied a penalty by being told some 30 minutes after the incident that it was due to an offside that was never mentioned at the time that you'd be completely OK with that? Given you're still griping about the one in the final (and I think you've got a case btw) you'll forgive me if I don't believe you. And if the end game of this is that we end up with greater transparency from officials and it results in Rangers suffering and all these supposed wrongs being righted then surely that's an end result that is good for the game and something you'd be encouraging?

I'm on board with anything that improves the overall standard of officiating we've (Scottish football) been subjected to in recent times.

I’m sorry but that’s just nonsense. If that penalty shout and then the manner and reasoning of the offside decision had went in Rangers favour against Aberdeen, you and a few other Dons on here would have been, rightly, moaning about it for a couple of days at least.

So, when contentious decisions go in Rangers favour the clubs on the receiving end should be demanding answers and sharpening the pitchforks but when contentious decisions go against Rangers we’re supposed to just shut the fuck up? Right you are. No double standards there at all.

Rangers have signed Fabio Silva on loan from Wolves. On the face of it he looks like another striker that doesn’t score but hoping to be proved wrong!

I listen to a few film podcasts and had randomly heard this mentioned on a few of them recently and thought I'll need to check it out. Annoyed I missed it today. Bloody work!

We went to a thing at the O2 a couple of weeks ago called Manc It Up. All tribute acts for Manchester bands. We missed the Courteeners, Smith and Seahorses ones the 3 we did see - Happy Mondaze, Complete Stone Roses and Definitely Oasis were all tremendous. A great night out with the lads for a few beers and to sing a long to some brilliant songs!

The new Aliens film doesn't look up to much!

Lammers pass completion rate must be in single digits. The amount of time he gives the ball away is criminal and I'd be bringing Lowry back (if possible) and playing him ahead of Lammers every day of the week.

That’s not really what has happened. Celtic have refused to offer Rangers any tickets. Rangers started it by reducing Celtic’s allocation and the the whole thing has escalated in to a ridiculous tit for tat farce.

There was a chance Rangers would have been included due to an early proposed criteria where it involved a teams contribution to their countries coefficient over the last X years and it was limited to one team per country however they are now going with a similar criteria but only on coefficient points earned in the CL.

He’s a fraud.

Our game management at in the closing stages yesterday and also against Betis is something Clement definitely needs to address. We don't seem to have a lot of composure in those situations.

Pretty disappointing game but the better team won in the end. I was worried how we’d handle Miovski after last time but Balogun was excellent and I thought Lundstram had a good game too. And Tav did what Tav does, the guy is unbelievable. And I can’t believe in that big stramash at the end Devlin didn’t get booked which cost me £290!! 😂

Rangers beat Betis 3-2 in Seville to top the group and go straight to the last 16! A tremendous result and what a week for Scottish football!!

To be honest we could take Lammers off and not bring anyone on and still be better off.

Some game in Seville. Rangers ahead twice and currently 2-2 at HT. Sparta 3-0 up in Cyprus so Rangers need to win to avoid dropping in to Conference (although I don’t think that would be the worst thing).

Great result for Aberdeen. Hopefully that’ll knacker them for Sunday!

For what it's worth, I can't see anywhere on the Rangers website where they are actually selling tickets for people to get their photo taken with the trophy. If I was guessing I'd say what has been circulated is a leaked image of the page that will go live if we do win it.

I’m pretty sure that’s why we signed Scott Wright. I’m guessing if we sign him he’d take Ryan Jack’s place in the squad as I assume he won’t be offered a new contract. Might end up back at Aberdeen….

I heard that about 2 months ago before either team were in the cup final.

Have you seen the incident or are you basing it on that still picture?

And a soft as shite foul that chopped off our fourth goal and a soft as shite red card that rules one of our only fit midfielders out of the cup final. But Rangers.
