    Is Kent a massive fraud of a footballer or was it just being bodied by their left back who was sensational?

    Gio shat the bed not putting Morelos on and Tullman should have stayed on instead of Lawrence.  At least Tillman gave some drive and is effective at corners.

     

    Kent was very very poor. Not a fraud as he's been great in Europe generally but not started well this season.

  2. A draw the best result we could have hoped for there. They completely bossed us second half. Ruud made the right changes and pressed us high enough that we couldn't build from the back at all. GvB should have changed it earlier and brought on another deeper midfielder to build from the back.

    Another thing is that our midfield just isn't good enough at this level. We badly need someone to come in alongside Lundstram. Sangare is a superb player and completely dominated that area. 

    With our current away European record I'd say this tie is over unless we pull off a miracle.

    Supposedly this is the team tonight. If so my concerns would be Davis lack of pace and therefore the chances of them hitting us on the counter through the middle. I'd also be concerned about Sands dealing with De Jong's aerial ability. 

    However it should give us better control in the middle. 

    Certainly the right attack midfield trio in any case.

    rangers fans not like Bill Leckie? Not my cup of tea either, but searching out his dating profile is kind of weird behaviour. As for age differences in relationships surely as long as couples are of consenting age it’s down to them?

    regarding rock stars. Ronnie Wood is 31years older than his current wife. Rod stewart is 27years older than his wife. I think she was born after he performed with the Faces. Why was the guitar dude from Led zeppelin was not outed as a deviant for his sexual encounters with a 13year old in the 70s? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lori_Mattix other notable allegations against Jagger, Bowie, and co.

    The difference is more the delusional nature of it. They are world famous rock stars with fortunes of hundreds of millions while Bill Leckie is Bill Leckie.

    Can't believe some of the comments  re the keeper .

    He was poor for a couple of crosses,  one lead to the goal. But he made at least 4 excellent saves. If could easily have been 10- 0. Give the guy a break. The outfield players were terrible and left him well exposed.  I admit his decision making could have been better at times. Its early days so wouldn't right him off just yet

    Always said that "Poser Jack" can't manage a game In  Progress and that was a perfect example 

    I'm only going off the highlights. I didn't see the game live. He was at fault for the 2nd and 3rd goals though. Both entirely him. I agree the defending around looked poor as well. That attempt at a clearance just before the fourth 😬

    £25 isn’t reasonable at all. We all know that if that was the cap, clubs would simply meet that cap. £25 is too expensive for Scottish top flight football. I paid that amount to see Ross County vs St Johnstone and the fair weather fans that made the journey with us needed their arms twisted to persuade them to go. If clubs want to charge that much then they need to vastly improve the match day experience.

     

    I wonder if anyone has some stats on what the average away ticket price is in the league currently?

    Surely the combined income from every sponsor a club (sometimes over 100) has is way more than ST and on the day tickets for 18/20 home games a season? 

    I'd have said sponsorship deals bring in way more.

    It's not even close. It's probably less than 10% of ticket sale revenue for most clubs. 

    On the subject of ticket prices there is no reason we couldn't copy what the English Premier League do an have a price cap for away fans' tickets. £25 or so would be a reasonable cap.

    Is that Rangers confirmed Europa League group stage if they lose to PSV?

    We were already guaranteed EL groups even if we had gone out to the Belgians. Something to do with the Russian clubs ban I believe. The main difference is that we secure a €5m parachute payment that we would now get if we lose to PSV. Wouldn't have been the case if we'd lost to USG.

    Lawrence and Lundstram yes, but Goldson was poor for me tonight. Lacking concentration, not talking with Sands or Tav enough, fluffing his clearances. Not saying he was 1/10, but he wasn’t up to his normal standards.

    Sands is an interesting one. Can play some very good passes and get some good pace on them but he was clearly rather nervous today. A couple times he gave it away under not a lot of pressure. A useful player to have around but I'd hope that Davies will come in as the starting CB when fit.

    I fear that you may be correct. My hope is to score just before half time, then bring on Morelos and Kent for the second half and go "baws oot" for it. 

    I'm as certain as I can be that if USG score at any point, it's "tie over" ☹️

    Of course, if GVB doesn't start our Dynamic Duo, and we go out, he'll get pelters. 

    Can't believe I doubted us at home in Europe. Sensational from the boys to get the job done tonight. 

    Lawrence MOTM for me but a number of players were superb with Goldson and Lundstram worth a special mention. 

    My Dad, the lunatic that he is, booked his flights to Eindhoven after the first legs and it somehow worked out for him!

    Tricky fixture next but that game tonight netted us €5m in additional European prize money anyway while causing me to sound like Kermit the Frog for the next few hours so all's well that ends well.

    I think Morelos will start tonight and Kent won't come on unless we are needing a goal with 20/30 minutes left. 

    If we go out it's 100% GVB's fault but not because we've had some injury issues and he wasn't willing to risk players. Entirely down to his negative approach to the first leg and the fact that he didn't change it quick enough when it was apparent how poor we were.

    Kent being back will hopefully be a massive boost. I think it was glaringly obvious last Tuesday how much he brings to the team especially in Europe.

    It doesn't sound like he will be starting though which is concern. I can't see us turning this round to be honest. Horrendous performance out there cost us the tie.
