He had at least two other options. Pass it to the right or hoof it up the park and he ignored those options and chose a riskier option by trying to take on their player.

Not sure I would describe the gap as massive between us and bang average European sides. Might just be a case of plays well enough on the day. Yesterday we didn’t play well enough but I’ll be looking for us to play much better in the return fixture at Fir Park.

Again, with expectations…… AJ will not fix everything in the next 10 days !!!

Changed days. 59% possession at Ibrox and getting beat by a single goal is regarded as a really poor performance. Not meant as a slight on the comments from anyone but rather a reflection on how far we have progressed that this is how we view today’s game. just wait till AJ gets them all sorted out and they come to Fir Park.

Aberdeen hopefully get a bruising tiring 120 mins game at Rugby park next Saturday before they play us on the Tuesday. Be nice for us to be the team that has rested.

I’m thinking it is going to be a great season but as always with a few bumps along the road.

Regarding the theme of the last few posts, Rangers probably played as well as they have done this season whereas we put in a performance similar in quality to the game against Falkirk. Still we only got beat by one goal that we literally gifted them.

That was his issue, his decision. Had an easy pass to player on his right side, no need to try and fake out the forward.

I hear what you’re saying but keeping the ball means the other team have a lot less chance of scoring but we so need to score goals to win games.

Good first half with one black mark. Struggled the second half. Kind of lost our shape and focus. No real attacking threat from us today. Couple of players below par today but, as with the goal, we expect these things to happen just hopefully not a lot. 2 weeks to work on the training ground with AJ and then show us how it should be done, against Aberdeen at Fir park. Sorry 10 days, not two weeks.

We also need to keep playing when Ranger's players get injured. At least twice we stopped play. Then at one point we had 2 players down and they kept going. Take every advantage you can.

65% possession but out shot 12 to 5. on target 3 for them and two for us. sort us out Alfred and let’s take 3 points back to Fir Park

1 silly mistake but it’s done and we move on thought RCC could be a bit more aggressive when he’s got the ball on the break a couple of times. Said has struggled with passing and has more often than not turned the wrong way when he receives the ball. We are well in control with the odd attack from Rangers but still room for us to improve and perhaps get one or two of our big forwards on and make more use of Longelo to fire balls into the box.

5 mins was fine. Between Shankland and the reds equipment

Said can’t buy a pass today
