Morelos finally!

Can I ask a question that’s genuinely not trolling here, maybe it’s on the first thread if so just say & when I’m free I’ll scroll through it.

I’d love to know how the people on this thread got to supporting Rangers, are you ex pats or what’s the story? I’ve always had a guilty pleasure in regards to them, the players they had in the 90’s Laundrup De Beor Gazza & that.

I'd say most of them are ex-pats. I'm not, but I've liked Rangers before I moved to Ireland

Some are some aren’t.

Take that result only halfway but another game another clean sheet

I’m Irish, not religious or political and have always followed the Gers from childhood (52 now). It’s in your heart, the same as any other supporter would follow Man Utd, Liverpool or Celtic, you are drawn to a club, that’s my story anyway!

26-07-2018 10:00pm

Delighted with the result, I told a mate earlier that I would be happy with a 1-0 or score draw so it worked out fine. Gerrard is not afraid to mix things up and drop players who don’t perform which is great!

That’s what I’m interested in. How were you drawn into it? I can understand Celtic United or Liverpool, friends or family supported them so followed them etc or family in the area or back when you started following football 40 years ago, high amount of Irish players at the clubs, but you had no incentive for following them

Berserker · 26-07-2018 10:10pm

Good night's work as far as I'm concerned. Got the result away from home, kept a clean sheet and Morelos scored. Sets us up very nicely for next week.

Was never drawn to a club just because they had irish players in them. My earliest memory is from the 78 cup final when they beat Aberdeen and Derek Johnstone became a favourite of mine, he also had a column in Shoot magazine at the time so that’s how I was drawn to the club. Lots of my friends followed other clubs and I also follow Man Utd, there was never a problem.

I love it, he sees players under performing and isn't afraid to drop them.

Jelle1880 · 29-07-2018 4:58pm

3-0 win against Wigan in a friendly.

Sadiq, ****ing hell this guy. Rapid.

Broxi_Bear_Eire · 02-08-2018 1:53pm

Sitting in Donegal Sirport waiting on my flight to Glasgow to see the game tonight. Won’t be easy but hopefully we get the right result.
Then off doing the Founders Trail and Tour of the Stadium on Saturday. Never done the Founders trail before but done the tour four/ five times looking forward to it

Jelle1880 · 02-08-2018 9:42pm

A bit nervy at the end when they scored, but a professional performance.

Gerrard has changed so much, this team is miles ahead of what we've had to witness down the years.

Berserker · 02-08-2018 10:38pm

Got to be honest and say that I was concerned at the end but it was a very good performance overall. Hope that goal is a lesson for the lads and they play right to the end from now on. We should have had that wrapped up before they scored though. Thought Jack had a brilliant game.

First Jack was my man of the match but it was a very good team performance. The goal well I was literally sitting right behind that goal and it was a tad unfortunate shagger had went down to save it and it came off his leg and in. But I get what you are saying re full concentration to the end

LiamoSail · 03-08-2018 3:49pm

Two Croatians stabbed in Govan last night. I only hope that anyone injured in attacks outside the ground was looking for trouble rather than an innocent bystander

Broxi_Bear_Eire · 05-08-2018 12:08pm

Team for today
RANGERS: McGregor; Tavernier, Goldson, Katic, Flanagan; Jack, Arfield, Coulibaly; Murphy, Windass, Morelos.

SUBS: Alnwick, Halliday, Kent, Ejaria, McCrorie, Candeias, Umar.

STEVEN GERRARD has made three changes to his side for this afternoon’s match with Aberdeen at Pittodrie.

From the side which progressed in the Europa League against Osijek in midweek, out go Ovie Ejaria, Daniel Candeias and Ryan Kent, with their places taken in the team by Scott Arfield, Jamie Murphy and Josh Windass.

That means it’s the same back five of Allan McGregor in goals, James Tavernier at right-back, Connor Goldson and Nikola Katic in the middle with Jon Flanagan at right-back.

In midfield, it’s Ryan Jack, Scott Arfield and Lassana Coulibaly, while up front, Murphy and Windass will support Alfredo Morelos.

On the bench for Gers are Jak Alnwick, Andy Halliday, Ryan Kent, Ovie Ejaria, Ross McCrorie, Daniel Candeias and Sadiq Umar.

Morelos off,what an idiot!

Jelle1880 · 05-08-2018 1:16pm

Dumb to kick out but that is never a red.

05-08-2018 1:29pm

Penalty!!

05-08-2018 1:30pm

Get in,1-0!

If you kick out it’s a red card! Simple

So kicking opponents off the ball is allowed?

Only it isn't. He didn't hit him from what I could see and it was because he was barged in the back twice, off the ball.
If anything it should be a yellow for both.

And then he gives a penalty which since given should have been a red. Scottish refs are a joke.

Jelle1880 · 05-08-2018 1:39pm

The hunger in this team is amazing to see, what a change from the last few years.

Ryan Jack not hiding away from tackles

Berserker · 05-08-2018 1:49pm

0-1 HT. Penalty from Tav. Very poor decision for the red card. Different season, same nonsense from the officials.

Broxi_Bear_Eire · 05-08-2018 2:02pm

It’s ok it’s obvious to some posting that it’s perfectly acceptable to barge a guy not once but twice off the ball without punishment. Wonder if this will be another red turned over on appeal because of a refs incompetence. Oh why was ball not red carded no attempt to play the ball Is a red

05-08-2018 2:53pm

As soon as I heard 6 minutes extra, I knew they would equalise!
Final score 1-1

Kick in teeth alright but the performance was excellent all round today. Thought Flanagan played really well, in particular. 1-1 isn't bad given the fact that they had two men extra for so long.

Really and that’s never happened with anyone who was at your dump away you go

Jelle1880 · 06-08-2018 1:07pm

If we get past Maribor it's either Ufa or... Progres Niederkorn :pac:

Jelle1880 · 06-08-2018 1:17pm

A few hours ago we were supposedly interested in Osijek's Barisic, now he's already having his medical...

Not ****ing about

Jelle1880 · 07-08-2018 11:53am

He's now signed, 4 year deal.

Is he eligible for Thursdays game? Massive incentive for Rangers to win the next tie now. Play off round very winnable

He should have got Yellow.

Moreta correctly got a red, You can retaliate and kick a player no matter how hard or how much contact their was!

Broxi_Bear_Eire · 07-08-2018 12:14pm

Really imo both should have yellows

Take this example watch from about 40 seconds in if this is a yellow the one from Morelos certainly is

No he won’t be eligible until we qualify if we manage that

Well last season the exact same thing happened to one of our players, and the guy got a yellow.

So because one ref made an incorrect decision, you believe that this decision should then become part of the rules??

Will you be happy if someone gains an advantage from an offside position against you this season?? Considering Coulibaly was offside for Arfields initial shot prior to your peno and the whistle should have gone well before Windass swan dived??

Try reading the rules under the updated version he wasn’t offside

Did you watch that video a lot worse that Morelos and only a yellow. Good to see all you tic fans interested in us again so enjoy

The new laws state that if you “are involved in active play“ you are offside. Him chasing and tussling with defenders for the ball as it goes toward Windass isn’t involved in active play??

Broxi_Bear_Eire · 08-08-2018 11:44am

And Morelos’ red card rescinded totally shocked :rolleyes:

Reduced to a yellow another shock
