Not far enough in my considered opinion.
"However, considering we had Taylor, Montgomery, Ralston & Welsh contributing to our back line this is a massive achievement"
Remembered to include Taylor this time
Safe to say I was a nervous wreck for most of that game. Last time I watch a big, important game like that sober.
Just glad we're through. Some really tasty teams in the EL this year and no matter who we get, it's gonna be a tough group.
Would love to have Lyon and see Dembele return, especially on their current form.. Almost as hopeless as us at the back. Atmosphere/away trip wise.. West Ham, Olympiakos, Galatasaray are all stand out potentials. All something to look forward to rather than dread this year.

it was starfelt that was missing last night ya t1t
That was a horrific watch last night. We couldn't hold onto the ball and it was party time down the wings for AZ, but for poor finishing and a good save from Hart we could've been out.
Wrong midfield for that game, Soro or Bitton for Rogic would've been better.
I'm all for Angeball, but for a game like that we should've tightend things up a bit.
If we don't get this defence sorted, we're not going to win anything.
p.s Great to get through tho..
On the defense.
If we assume that Juranovic and Ralston are first and second choice right backs
Julien and Starfelt are 1st choice centre halfs
Taylor is second choice LB
Would we be happy buying one CB and making Welsh 4th choice?

I think we all know who the t!t was last night-don’t try and get out of it…
The game was as tough as we expected. They threw everything at us but sadly we also threw things at ourselves for 2 goals.
6-8 weeks ago we had said goodbye to any European football so this is a big bonus. Still a long way to go and we could still see a similar result on Sunday but the progress in such a short space of time is phenomenal.
The bravado from certain members of the Rangers support on their article last night about how easy we will be to beat is encouraging as they are verging into pure arrogance
Have to say that for all the pressure, domination and pretty play they had and us gifting them two of the worst howlers I’ve seen for yonks; they were atrocious in front of goal.

They just wanted to cross it, cross it, cross it. Similar to a team in Scotland

Meh
I’ve seen supporters both sides of the fence writing off managers and players with short shrift after a handful of games already; so it doesn’t surprise me when some bears still have that inner belief that they will hammer us come Sunday.
I was and am still out with the jury on Postecoglu but I’ll admit he’s got me enjoying watching us again at least. Kyogo is without doubt the real deal while Hart is an improvement on what we had. The rest; I’ll wait and see.
What the bears can be rightly certain of is that this defence of ours combined with our style of play should be a Godsend for them but only if in turn they up their game to what they are capable of. Anything less and it’s game on.

Bugger 😂
Instead of the weekend off, I kept thinking they would have benefited from a league game at the weekend.
Just one of the many things that went for us in the tie. Delighted to get through but under no illusions about defensive frailties. One of the toughest 90 mins that's for sure..

They scraped past a Highland League team who played most of that game with 10 men 😂
i expect the occasion will see rangers through sunday tbh.
won't be too downhearted if we lose, i expect home teams to take 3 points in old firm games.
Think that's the most I remember us being under the cosh while getting the result we needed since that Barca game in 2012.
beer sheva away was brutal.
outside europe the league cup final with rangers.
julien goal, morelos missed penalty, horrible game but funny as fvck

One of the funniest things was at full time all of the Rangers fans who had been leaving came running bac in as they ahd heard a cheer. It was us cheering full time. They thought they had scored and were running back in to cheer us on
