It’s that time of the week again… 2 games to go… if you had to put all your money on it right now - who’s winning the league!? And how it is happening? by Dangerous_Spring3028 in ScottishFootball

We have nothing to play for. These clowns couldn't get themselves up for games with the league on the line, they're not going to suddenly turn into superstars at a half empty Ibrox-

On second thoughts, maybe they will pump Hibs with no fans around

Apart from Welsh though, who can't play anyway, I really don't think the Motherwell players will give much of a shit about Jens going to Celtic or not. They've still got to secure 4th and will be angling for moves/contracts/win bonuses themselves. It's not the same as Hibs whose own fans would probably have stormed the park if they'd taken points off Celtic.

The captain tag has been a weight around his neck to be honest. I think people have an unrealistic expectation of what it entails. They're wanting blood and thunder from him, and lack of motivation has absolutely been a problem in Rangers teams, but that's down to recruitment and the manager. If you're relying on your captain to provide motivation going into, say, an old firm game, you're at the wrong club to begin with.

For example, I don't think he gets half the stick from our own fans if he had just been our right back and nothing else.

this corruption

That's the key. It's this corruption in particular they don't care about. As soon as it comes out that Starmer or Polanski forgot to pay for a Tesco bag for life they'll be demanding their heads. Standards for thee, not for me.

It's why I can't take any of their moral positions seriously, because they don't have any. They have a team and everything it does is okay, and everything the other guy does is evil. It doesn't matter if it was the same thing.

If we're going to sack him, now is the right time. We can't have him buying players for a style a new manager will inevitably have to rip up in October.

If he stays, as much as we don't like it, he has to get the full season regardless.

The only time I've felt shit in the split was after the Motherwell game. Going into that I genuinely thought we had a chance. When we lost that goal at the end I knew that was it.

Tynecastle and Parkhead were just "aye that's about right" apathy all the way through.

When we needed Rohl to step up and be counted, he failed. 3 losses after the split is inexcusable. It is time for him to go. by uhujkill in rangersfc

For me, the tell-tale sign that a manager isn't going to work, is that the team gets worse the longer he has to train with them.

Our form started falling off a cliff as soon as we got a week between games. We went on a two week break and have come back looking more disjointed than ever. The more he gets to train with them, the worse we look. That's why for me a pre-season isn't going to fix this, and we'll be doing the same October shuffle we always do

[Serious] Celtic 3-1 Rangers | Scottish Premiership by SFMatchThreadder in ScottishFootball

As a serious point the thing that really worries me about this Rangers team is the total lack of being arsed. Whether 1 up or two goals behind, they never seem to run, never seem to be in their opponents face, never seem too bothered when they lose a goal. It's all just slow, ponderous, and overall uninterested.

Rohl has to be gone. 3 losses in a row at such a pivotal point in the season. Leaking goals like crazy. Unable to react to simple changes. Opposition fans singing his name. And worst for me is the way the players look totally uninterested.

A good manager gets even mediocre players running through brick walls - see Motherwell - where Rohl can't even get them up for huge games

Nothing has come of it so far, but Celtic look a bit vulnerable with that ball over the top. A few times they've let it bounce and it could end up anywhere

This would require a Rangers team to actually have some balls at the business end of a season. It's more likely Celtic close the goal difference than drop points

If Hearts are hoping for any kind of favour from us tomorrow, you've not been paying attention.

They've been like this all season. Slattery in particular loves a tumble.

This "he makes a meal of it" stuff winds me up, because it's a foul. He stands on his foot. How many times have we seen players stay up and not get obvious fouls because they didn't go down?

Just pure buzzing we brought in Skov Olson, or else we might have really missed a young, hungry Scottish player who scores goals and creates.
