Good that we are completing with a team of their quailty I suppose. Lack of midfield depth on the bench was a bit worrying. Was crying out for a fresh pair of legs with 10 left. Still, we are playing some glorious stuff at the moment. Aye I think Gerrard needs to take some of the responsibility for failing to get 3 points both times. As much as he’s got us playing some good stuff all over the park, game management remains an area where he can take some criticism. I can’t remember the last time I seen a game with no subs at all in 90 mins. We were crying out for fresh legs after the second goal.

EddardStark Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Pretty philosophical about tonight’s result. Benfica are a top side and I thought they were going to steal at the end. Strange we didn’t make a sub though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Ramy 1314 Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 I actually relieved we are out of European competition so as we won't embarrass ourselves any further. Lennon???? I give up... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Ramy 1314 Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 As I said, being out of Europe is a positive. Maybe we can focus on the league campaign now. Although, its not looking good as long as Lennon is in charge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't really help them prepare for elite European competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolling hIlls Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 I have backed Lennon on here but just reading Sutton. I agree that Lennon's post match interview was delusional. You would have thought they had won the way he was talking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blantyre_Braveheart Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Whoever wins the Scottish cup or finishes third (if Rangers/Celtic win the SC), is quids in next season. You go into the Europa League playoff, so regardless of the result you are playing group stage football. I'm not sure on the finances of the Conference cup, but you'd expect 1.5-2 million plus bonuses for wins. Then you add in the TV revenue payment, 10 year coefficient payment and 3 matches at £30 a pop for 20,000 fans (Covid permitting). Could end up with 5/6 million in extra income. The teams won't also be as bad as people make out. It will be a slightly worse version of the current Europa League (dropping to 32 teams). If you lose out on the non champions path of the champions league qualifiers you go into it, a few decent teams went out of the Europa League qualifiers that would make it.

Fairbairn Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Impressive result from Rangers tonight. First time we’ve really had to dig in this season and once we went in front we should probably have scored a couple more but for some good saves by the keeper. European football beyond Christmas will do, although hope it doesn’t impact the league performances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done to Gerrard for changing the formation- something he has been reluctant to do in the past. Money will help keep the lights on past February too.

EddardStark Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 I wish Scott Arfield would have selected Scotland rather than Canada. He is a class act in my opinion and really plays well in big games and always does a job in any position he is asked to play in by his manager.

Fairbairn Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 Good to see Nathan Paterson getting a start tonight. Hopefully he can get as much game time as possible between now and the Euros and give Tav a challenge for the Scotland right back spot....

Fairbairn Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 Another very impressive European performance. 7 changes from the weekend and still won without really getting out of second gear. Winning the group from pot 3 is a decent achievement and now seeded for Monday’s draw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiny Tim Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 To be fair, that is another cracking result in Europe. I still think that come the new year there’ll be just a few points between you and Celtic but the big difference this season seems to be that Rangers aren’t relying purely on Morelos for their goals.
