Really cannot believe that the BBC ignored this game on the Scottish News a minute ago.

I assumed that nothing unusual had happened as it would have been news

It's only when I saw this thread had got to 500 posts that I thought maybe there was a story here.

Better luck in next years competition

...but as i've said before this result had been coming for weeks

What, since they couldn't beat Alloa at the Recs in the recent league game there?

I remembered that when I saw tonights score so I'm not seeing this as the massive shock which you're probably expecting here.

BREAKING: "I won't quit" - Ally McCoist.

Rangers deserved to lose to Alloa but I won't quit says Ally McCoist.

Ally McCoist says Rangers got what they deserved in their Challenge Cup semi-final loss to Alloa but vowed not to quit as manager despite his team throwing away a two-goal lead.

Goals from Kenny Miller and Dean Shiels looked like sending the Ibrox side through to a final date with Livingston next April.

But Championship rivals Alloa hit back through a double from Greig Spence either side of a Ryan McCord goal.

It was another damaging cup defeat during McCoist's three-and-a-half year reign as boss.

With his side trailing Hearts by nine points in the league, the Light Blues boss was asked if he would step down from his position.

He said: "No I'm too concentrated on the game here.

"My decision is to look at the performance tonight, particularly after we went 2-0 up, then sit down with the boys and go through it.

"It won't be a pleasant meeting but it has to be done and it will be done."

A section of the Rangers support voiced their displeasure at the boss during his team's 2-0 defeat to Hearts at Tynecastle in November and many expressed their feelings at full-time at the Indodrill Stadium.

"I share their disappointment," said McCoist. "They are entitled to a few choice comments. But there is a long way to go in the season and we will fight tooth and nail to get the club back to where we belong."

Alloa had secured two draws against Rangers on league duty this season and McCoist was far from happy with the professionalism shown by his squad late in the game.

Asked about his team's performance in Clackmannanshire, he added: "We got what we deserved.

"We took our eye of the ball and lost some really sloppy goals.

"We were aware how difficult it would be after coming here earlier in the season and them holding us to a 1-1 draw. They then hit us with a late equaliser at Ibrox.

"It is not as if we didn't know what to expect. But the real disappointing thing is that after being 2-0 up we couldn't see the game out.

"I didn't say an awful lot after the game - I will save that for the next few days.

"I'm not sure if there was a lack of character but there was certainly a lack of professionalism to see the game out from a great position. We should be able to see the game out.

"We switched off at a couple of crosses. We lost men at attacks, we turned our back on set-plays. They were allowed to take a quick throw for the second.

"It's about professionalism - taking responsibility to do your job."

From Rangers media :lol::lol::lol:

My wee boy plays football and watching him has been one of my greatest pleasures over the last 12 years. I encourage him. I support him. I do not boo him….

… Rangers are family.
I do not boo the players or the manager. I support them.
I actually find this easy!
The product is what it is, we are in trough years as Struth predicted.
This is when family must stick together.
This is not a defence of poor management or poor tactics… it is a support of my family!
They will forever have a warm place in my heart.
We need to stop this divisiveness, this cancer from within is ripping the heart out of my family more than any boardroom spiv could do
