JSR Posted March 18, 2023 Report Share Posted March 18, 2023 While we’re on the subject of things that annoy us from the match announcer, why does he announce the score as the teams come off at half time? The people in the ground know what the score is, they don’t need reminding, or does he just like the sound of his own voice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJC Posted March 18, 2023 Report Share Posted March 18, 2023 The first Rangers goal was pathetic from Kelly. Getting beat at his near post like that was Stevie Woods-esq Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep apart from our result it could have been a lot worse . The other 3 had games they need to be winning to catch us and all three failed. When we play Hibs at Easter Road Dundee Utd go to Ibrox and Killie at home to Hearts. Looks like the two home games against Dundee Utd and Livi could be our defining moment.

As for Slattery his stupid tackle cost us the 1st goal and he had a poor game but tbf he's been a better looking player under SK, so I would not be too harsh on him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie73 Posted March 18, 2023 Report Share Posted March 18, 2023 Still struggling to accept that this is onside, their guy is clearly infront of ours 🤷🏻♂️, the rest of results going our way, two massive home games and I think we are safe.

COYW There is something very odd there, either our groundsman was pished when he was lining the pitch or the VAR camera angle is a mile out. The VAR line should be parallel to the 18 yard box line.

middleeastdave Posted March 18, 2023 Report Share Posted March 18, 2023 What happened today, Rangers never got a penalty today..that will be Mr Walsh in the bad books and might not get another Rangers game again!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grizzlyg Posted March 18, 2023 Report Share Posted March 18, 2023 Usual frustration today especially after getting back to 2-2. I have been very impressed with kettlewell but he blundered today keeping Slattery on pitch after his what ..20th or so booking of season, at least he will now be suspended so every cloud. I totally disagree with Angus Gunn situation but when you see Kelly today for 1st goal you do see he is not international class. Anyway we move on....COYW 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie73 Posted March 18, 2023 Report Share Posted March 18, 2023 Was Slattery’s red for having his hand near the players face, contact was on shoulder not face, but player goes down holding face, why did VAR not look at it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think because for some reason they are not supposed to get involved unless it’s to suggest it’s a red or to downgrade a red. Yellow or not decision is not within their scope apparently. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellsince75 Posted March 18, 2023 Report Share Posted March 18, 2023 Putting the iffy 3rd goal to one side , rangers looked in total control of a game we were rarely in. Not this season , or last couple of years but this century had been horrendous in the league against the old firm . Frustrating that we need to revert to old YouTube vids to remember a time when we had decent players . Not an easy fix but it’s past the point of frustration that we get our asses handed to us each and every time . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie73 Posted March 18, 2023 Report Share Posted March 18, 2023 Midfield were extremely slow today, Spittal looked like he towing a caravan, Goss and Cornelius tracked no one today, Slattery’s red finishes the game, but the boy Cantwell should hang his head in shame, zero contact to the face and he is rolling around like he’s been punched, that’s football now, teams do anything to get an advantage. But VAR is a joke Sakala is off, the rule states it’s got to be a ball playing part that puts you in an on/off position, looking at the line his shoulder is not further forward than Sakala’s foot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clubs our size can’t be expected to beat the Old Firm! I mean it’s not as if Killie, Ross County, St.Johnstone, Accies, St.Mirren have fared any better…..oh wait… …Welcome to our great wee club!

twistandshout1983 Posted March 18, 2023 Report Share Posted March 18, 2023 Had hope this might be the day we could smash the 20 year jinx No doubt if we had went 2-0 up at half time they would have somehow hit back and got a result, seen it happen too often now Was definitely impressed with the first 20 minutes and much improved from recent seasons , but this game came as no surprise result in the end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pepper Posted March 18, 2023 Report Share Posted March 18, 2023 Someone needs to dig out the Craigan/Fobres offside from about ten years ago. Seem to mind a stick man Well player being drawn on to justify a horrendous offside call at 1 nil to us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grizzlyg Posted March 19, 2023 Report Share Posted March 19, 2023 Watched sportscene, 1st goal is a shocker between Slattery foul and Kelly making total pigs ear of it . And we'll said Richard Foster for calling out Cantwell over 2nd Slattery booking, absolute embarrassment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lan_Lad Posted March 19, 2023 Report Share Posted March 19, 2023 I don't think anybody should be fixated about failing to beat the OF, in the current era in particular very few do. We're 29 league games in and each have lost to a non OF side just once. And let's not kid ourselves these sides had some sort of strategy that works. It's just one of those rare days when maybe the OF side isn't quite at it and everything is falling the smaller sides way, they got lucky effectively. Motherwell simply haven't been lucky but that's probably the case with others too. The OF have never been this dominant and chances are they will continue to strengthen their dominance making any wins against them even rarer. Nobody but each other has even beaten them in a cup this season, the usual route to a trophy for non OF sides. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My hopes in recent years is to avoid red cards and a bad injury and maybe a drubbing. Anything else is a bonus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grizzlyg Posted March 19, 2023 Report Share Posted March 19, 2023 Special mention also yesterday to Casey. What about that run in the 2nd half when he sprinted whole length of park to support KVV. Get him signed up asap. Really like him as a defender and his attitude, reminds me very much of Tom Aldred. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
