Very unlucky yesterday and performed better than I thought and so close to a great 3 points. To end up losing is a massive kick in the knackers. I'm hoping we use it as motivation the next 2 games. To be fair we were fortunate to be leading 1-0 at ht. How often do Rangers miss a pen at Ibrox? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as I read on here that there was a second penalty I said to my wife “They’ll score another,” and just laughed when they did. It’s all so predictable. It’s not worth getting angry about any more. If the club aren’t going to go daft over the injustices then I’m not going to get my blood pressure up. But for some daft reason I feel the urge to buy a ticket for Wednesday night. What’s wrong with us?! It is predictable and it's absolutely gut-wrenching, but it was a penalty. I'm the same as you, I don't watch any highlights or read any match reports when we get beat. It just makes me even more pissed off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dropping below those standards (I mean, home defeat to bloody Motherwell, chucking a two goal lead at home v Hibs, and not scoring v Dundee, St Mirren, Kilmarnock) is sackable for any manager and the job interview (if we even conduct them) should outline that. If the manager doesn’t have the balls to take on the job in those circumstances, we’ll find one that does. Well said Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Jambo Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 I suspect after a full round of fixtures, many fans will want to take stock of where we are after Livi. A win is absolutely vital for things not to look horrendous. A defeat, combined with wins for Hibs and Aberdeen would see us slip to 10th, two points above the play-off. While I'm normally in the 'all that matters is the result' camp. even with a win the position isn't going to be great, so a convincing win would really help. This is a game to really attack and go full throtle for the whole game. Naismith needs to get the team up for this and playing on the front foot from the start. I still hold out (blind) hope that Naismith can turn things around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesterday's & Wed's matches likely chalk & cheese. The Rangers were never going to play that way which, I think, kind of helped us although, having said that, we once more were somewhat culpable - the unseen hand of the officials notwithstanding.

Gorgie Garcon Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 (edited) Has the feeling of a stuffy cagey night under the lights, they are a horrible mob to try and break down and always treat tynie like a cup final. With Sibbick and Offiah out, would like to see a 3-4-3 formation too, but I think again he will use rotation and leave us puzzled again to what is going on. Intrigued to see if Boyce gets a sniff, maybe something into that if he doesn't feature again? Coaching staff should realise that they are playing for their futures over the next 6 days. Personally I think nothing but a convincing win and a decent attempt at sevco on Sunday extends their probations until Xmas.

Ex member of the SaS Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Win by a decent margin and other results going our way and we are back up to 4th and a huge sigh of relief from SN. Lose and he has to go asap and get an experienced manager in. Personally would prefer a proper manager but a loss is unthinkable. We really have to start winning if we want any chance of third. Winning is SN only hope and he will get less grief from me and I suspect a few others. Move upwards or step aside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
