    I feel if we lock it the trouble makers will have won again,if people want to chat about the match they can if they don't the thread will die and be gone soon enough.

    Why wasnt Novo brought on earlier for that same reason?

    Why the **** did he bring McCulloch on?

    Sometimes i think Walters going senile!

    Yeah McCulloch is a work horse and gets goals, it was like Smith had no plan b or c after they scored, and i have to mention it but honestly what do you think of Broadfoot?

    Novo was brought on just 5 mins after Zenit's first goal. Smith was playing for another clean sheet, just hoping Darcheville would get on the end of a scrap. He only brought Novo on when he needed a goal, he wouldn't have brought him on earlier in that game because he's (Smith) ultra defensive. I think he was mad with his tactics in that game. Does he not bug the hell out of you Eirebear with his formation?

    He does and he doesnt Paul.
    At the start of the season all i wanted from Rangers was to still be in the title race at this stage.
    He has brought us the CIS cup, A Uefa cup final, A Scottish Cup Final and we are still in the race for the league.
    I would call it a success....

    However he showed an inability to change things last night and that worries me a little

    Well i just have to say this team deserved to win Uefa cup coz they had great performance this year,also its still confusing to me coz they are quite anonymous players but still played great this year.I would like to see this performance in CL next season although as Advokat said they will probably sell all the main players so its going to be hard but we will see

    Can't really understand why Advocaat would say that, it's not like the club's owners are short of cash!
    They paid fairly big money for some of those guys, but I suppose 1 or 2 of them might think it's a good time to get a move to a bigger league, while their profile is so high.
    I'd expect them to replace any leavers with people of at least similar quality.

    Well just reading his interview where he talking about Skrtel selling and how Arshavin will be probably sold and maybe few more players and how they need money to keep them and get new players and how he is scared he wont keep this team
