SMJ_1874 Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Play with the same intensity and we’ll get something. Would love it to be 3 points. We owe them payback for the home fixture and they’re vulnerable just now with their confidence at a low point. Nothing to fear here and please have a go. Does anyone know if we’ve sold out our end?

DS98 Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 We could definitely get something here. We should be confident and I can’t see us sitting back. Robbie now knows we don’t have the players to do that right now. I’ll go for 1-1. Or We could be in the end of a backlash and get a doing. Which we will then see a few usual suspects back on here who are conspicuous in their absence tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuart500 Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 A lot will depend on if Rowles is fit enough to do 90 minutes. He has much better positional awareness in the box than Sibbick and Neilson and we can't afford to allow them any space. Stopping crosses into the box too will be vital. Hopefully Cochrane can continue his outstanding form on the left, and I would trust Atkinson to do the same on the right (Smith has been great but maybe needs a break). Our chances will also increase if we can get Humphrys back up front. Him Shankland and Ginnelly to bother their defence. Halliday, Snoddy and Cammy in the midfield. If we could get the first goal we might have a chance. Spread a bit more displeasure amongst the ranks of the unwashed. Give it our best shot for once on their soil would be acceptable unlike our usual soft capitulation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazzas right boot Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 It's at ibrox, get the title sorted! We can silence the crowd, keep it tight and then we will get chances as the crowd turns and they get nervous Or We can chuck in a early goal, get their tails up and give them a 3 or 4 goal win to get them back on track. I know where my money is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheetah Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 To get anything at Ibrox we need to be strong at the back, we need to defend set pieces well and if possible not give too many away. Unfortunately we have not been good at this lately, fix this then we have a chance. I predict a narrow defeat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd agree on Humphrys, if he's fit I'd try to get him into the side in some capacity, think he'd be useful in holding the ball & taking on defenders, he gives us a few options all in 1 player.

Rods Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Strangely Robbie usual tactic of trying to frustrate Rangers early and hope the crowd get on the teams back actually would be the best approach this match. Robbie however does not factor in the standard loss of an early goal or the inevitable Penalty they will get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cade Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 We're still very fragile but we're improving on the attack and the work rate can no longer be questioned.

With Rowles back in we should be more solid. 1-1 Be very interesting to see if Rowles plays. You'd think he'd want a couple of 90 mins under his belt pre WC. I have a feeling Halks is ready too, but won't be risked until after the WC, which would be very sensible I'd reckon. I think with Snoddy demanding the team be more brave on and off the ball, we could do OK on Wed. In all honesty it comes down to which Rangers turns up. The one that thumped us and Aberdeen, it'll be tough, the one that's played other teams recently, we can take advantage. The team I want to pick is probably along the lines of 352 but means either of Gino or McKay drop out, probably McKay. Can't see it happening. The only reason I'd go that formation is if Rowles is back, I don't think Cochrane or Halliday can be dropped!!!!! Maybe Andy could do with a rest I suppose, which would allow us to go 4 at back and pick Rowles at LCB with Cochrane at LB.

Cruyff Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 They are definitely vulnerable, they've been poor but our record at Ibrox is appalling so that means nothing.

PapaShango Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 We played a team away in Europe last week that are better than them and competed well with a few players rested. It’s all about retaining the ball better, getting up the pitch further and pressing them more than we have. Sounds easy but I think we have the players to do it. Whether we execute it is another matter though. If we keep it tight early their fans will start to turn on them. Rarely do the OF lose a couple on the bounce but we definitely need to be going into this with confidence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarrysRightFoot Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 I hope we show some courage and stand up to them. Far too many times we’ve been a soft touch against the OF and roll over. Hopefully we learned things from our European experience. They’ll be a ‘wounded animal’ so could play like they did v Aberdeen but at the same time if the players aren’t being GVB anymore we need to take advantage of it. As I say I just hope we stand up for ourselves and show courage in how we play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DG_HMFC Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Never confident playing these ***** through there, we more often than not end up on the wrong end of a hammering.
