Again, you are focusing on the position and haven’t explained why that matters if he is a goal threat.

You’ve also overlooked the point I was making about using arbitrary time periods to make a point. Since Beale was appointed, Kyogo has scored 70% of Celtics goals against us. See how easy that was to twist? 

Because again it is obvious to anyone but you. Your attacking players are contributing the square root of f**k all to these games so for Celtic it’s a case of stop Tav stop Rangers but you seem to be happy your strikers and wingers misfire in these games and quite at peace with your right back doing the job of them all and failing the do the basics of being a defender

We are talking about this season in its entirety ffs, a clearly defined period and not one just pulled out of thin air so not really arbitrary is it?

And since Beale joined Since Beale joined you have fallen further behind and picked up another losers medal. Probably best not to start any sentence with since Beale joined tbh

Yeah I assumed they picked him up to fill the gap kind of left by Aribo but he has nothing about him whatsoever. Raskin did look pretty tidy tbf, a more mobile Lundstram with better passing. 

A better midfield would have punished Celtics sloppy passing in the first half yesterday. There was numerous occasions where a Rangers player intercepted a pass in midfield only to make a dogs dinner of it by the time they had reached Celtics 18 yard line. 
 

Rangers need to bite the bullet and get shot of guys like Barasic, Davies, Sakala, Morelos, Wright, Jack, McGregor, possibly even Tavernier and Goldson too. Players that evidently aren’t good enough to compete with this Celtic team, and are a million miles away from the standard required in the Champions League. Obviously it would cost far too much money to try and replace all those with players of a higher standard, but the longer that group hang around and stink the place out the longer Celtic will dominate domestically.

Yeah I think the thing that surprised most of us was just how poor our passing was, I think our pass % was in the 70’s and the volume of mis-placed passes under no pressure was both frustrating and bemusing at times. We were there to be had yesterday imo but thankfully what we were was clinical with our chances which is something we have failed to be at times. We found a way to win it which is a good place to be and psychologically damaging to Rangers.

I know and we still won the game rather comfortably whilst being a bit pish as Tav played his part in giving us 2 back . Imagine if you had a secondary threat you could rely on in these games and you might have gotten a point but you don’t, you have Tav and it isn’t enough 

But you seem happy to that you only have 1 attacking option in these games and that because of that you have dropped another title and trophy to us and you will drop another unless you fix that particular problem

Never in my life have I seen someone so clearly rattled when their team has actually won a big game against their rivals.

Games up Celtic. Ange is obs an imposter and Beale has his number after that performance.  Tav will run riot at hampden.

[bennett]

Strange that a team as great as celtic are, have to resort to pressurising and influencing referees.

It wasn’t a big game, Stormzy. League was already won.

Just you keep your eye out for that letter Rangers are writing to the powers that be

Some Rangers fans have a short memory - look back to earlier this season when Morelos was given a soft penalty for having his shirt tugged against Livingstone.  Surely these things even themselves out over a season!

Shoosh. We all know the season is only 4 games long!

Do you seriously think he's going to say that we're going humped and don't stand a chance.

About the only difference is the date between that and this same page-filler crap

The headline vs the quote.

It’s disappointing to come away with nothing,” Tavernier said.

“We wanted to come away with three points.  

“We’ve obviously got an important game against them in three weeks' time, so if we take the positives out of this game and apply ourselves in the same way – with a bit more – then I’m really confident in the team. 

“Our next game, the St Mirren game, is important because we need a run of consistency going into the semi-final. 

“It’s obviously a massive game in three weeks. But St Mirren is massive because we need to get back to winning ways and work on ourselves.  

“But, yeah, three weeks’ time is obviously massive, and we’ve got to make sure we get in the final.”
