will be null and void mate

You can never rule out Celtic.

Yes at the moment we are besieged on all sides by enemies determined to kick us when we’re down, enemies declaring war on us through nothing more than jealousy at our success and taking arms against us. Us. Them. Us. War. But we do not forgive and we do not forget this foot on our throat. Our Enemies will be called to account some day as we rise, rise like a phoenix in an army uniform to reclaim our rightful place in football and society. We accept no punishment. And we show no mercy. Cobra K...eh, Celtic never dies!

Celtic will come back from their winter training camp refreshed and win every game until the end of the season.

Rangers will feel the burden of not being able to afford a break and continue to struggle as the winter goes on. They've looked increasingly leggy since the Standard Liege game and will inevitably start to drop points during January allowing Celtic to snatch the title.

Imperious Rangers will carry on on Europe as they have done. IE they will beat dudes, chuck away commanding leads against half decent outfits and get pumped out as soon as they come up against a good team.

No significant comings or goings at Celtic or Rangers.

The only thing I enjoyed about Saturday was Gerrard had absolutely no idea what to do about Celtic's formation/tactics

I expected Rangers to come out in the second half and be a lot better but it was us who I felt dropped down a few levels

If Bitton doesn't get sent off I can't see us losing the match

I think St Mirren and to a certain extent Celtic have showed there is a way past this Rangers team

It would've been interesting to see how they would've reacted had we managed to take one of our many chances in the first half and go on and win the game

still think Rangers have the league sewn up, can't see these 3 publicised games giving them any problems this month, Aberdeen are on a bit of a poor run as it is, Hibs have lost their last 2 or 3 at home and Motherwell look like relegation fodder

looks like we're going to lose out on 2 of our top targers

McKenzie going to Genk or Gent

Davies maybe going to Udinese

Well, I think there's nothing illegal about a lock in.

I think Rangers will win the league but not by much.

IMO it was a combination of physical and mental fatigue have cost us in previous seasons and it looks like it's there just now. Hopefully one game a week for the next few weeks will help get players more rested.

Also teams are finally getting to grips with Rangers main tactic of using the full backs and we're going to have to adjust our formation to suit.

Jack and Arfield coming back will make a big difference though and our stronger squad should see us over the line. I don't see us romping it and I'm sure there will be a few blips.

You can take your time, I'm headed to the golf course.

Only so the dog can take a dump right enough!

one thing I am excited about is David Turnbull, yes he tired in the 2nd half but I felt in the first half particularly the first 25 mins he was exceptional

we did drop off when him and McGregor drifted out the game

the 3 of Soro McGregor and Turnbull look like they compliment each other well, Soro gives McGregor the freedom to influence games

looking forward to seeing the 3 of them next season

Rangers 100% missed Arfield on Saturday, Kamara and Aribo were very poor

Davis had a great game imo

posted on 6/1/21

Important we win the next game. Win that an it's a procession to the title.

I don't think Celtic are good enough to catch us, they have fixed the centre of their midfield but they need a goalie, a central defender, a right back and they have no width.

I've always thought McGregor is a good player and one I would take at rangers. Turnbull I would have been happy had we signed him.

Celtic look like they can beat all the other teams again. Although will be interesting to see what putting on their best performance but still losing does to them.

With them being better I can see a share in the points in next 2 old firm games. I just can't see rangers dropping 10 more points thanks Celtic in the (assuming celtic ever play their 3) other 14 games.

In other news it looks like the democrats have won the senate

I think the whole 'Celtic played their best but didn't win' chat isnt really a fair reflection of the game

the red card lost us the game, 11 v 11 we certainly weren't losing

our back 4 were strolling it and the keeper I think touched the ball with his hands twice before Bitton got sent off

posted on 6/1/21

We've dropped 4 points in 22 games
We would need to drop 11 points in the next 16 games.

Celtic would need to win 19 games in a row.
In there last 19 games they have dropped 14 points.

it was over when we drew with Hibs and they refused to get shot of Lennon

———————————————————————

I actually thought we started the second half better. Thought Hagi had an immediate impact, actually kept the ball and had a good dig.

Thought it was big for Gerrard to make a HT sub, but turns out Roofe was injured. Even the chance which Morelos got pulled down for would never have happened in first half. Thought it was more even than first half, wouldn’t have been hard, we obv only were on top after red.

Can’t be that it’s Celtic dropping their level every time we come into a game!

IMO I felt after the half hour mark we weren't having as much joy and I was saying at half time I felt our chance to win the game had been and gone as I expected Rangers to be a lot better 2nd half but we were in control of the game 2nd half as well similar to the end of the 1st half, McG/Turnbull not as influential, passing wasn't as crisp, press wasn't as intense, bad decision making from Eddy/Frimpong/Christie

I think Rangers were happy to sit in a soak it all up, moment of madness from Bitton turns that into 3 points

it's football these things happen

Shhhh FFS It cant be us good.
Get wi the programme.
When they are playing well it's because they are great


as always you're taking things to heart because you don't agree with my opinion

just because Hagi put a shot about 5 yards past the post doesn't mean you were getting any better

well I didn't think Rangers were, it's all about opinions

I give Rangers credit when I think they're good, I'm the first on here to comment on how rubbish we are

The last four league games Rangers played - the performances were amongst the worst of the season.

The impact of the schedule of the 1st half of the season was having an affect.

You could see it in the reduction in our pressing game which was - until that point - really impressive.

To come out of those games with max points was absolutely fantastic.

I'm hoping that the slight reduction in game rate will help rid of us of some of that fatigue.
