steelboy Posted July 22, 2020 Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 Polworth playing like he's half asleep. No positives from that 45. Very much like our January/February form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfc Posted July 22, 2020 Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 Same old script from us at Ibrox,defensively we have been all over the place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSR Posted July 22, 2020 Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 Our defending has been poor schoolboy level with no-one tracking their men. Normally I'm a fan of polworth but he looks like he's towing a caravan in the first half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

couttsy Posted July 22, 2020 Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 Not one for getting too carried away in pre season friendlies but good god that was horrific.... It’s 3 going on 6/7.... I tanking will do nothing for confidence heading into a new season. Far too open tactically, 2 full backs honking. Polworth and Campbell horrific.

Not saying for a second that we wouldn't lose in friendlies against anyone else, but I also don't have to suffer a week of laughing emojis, gifs and memes on my phone for a week after we lose to anyone else. I'd be going out of my way to create a feel-good factor...or at least avoid a feel-shite factor, just a bit counter-productive if we're hoping for a strong start I think, that's all. Expand This is why they are better played behind closed doors. It's a training exercise that fans take far too seriously. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purestate Posted July 22, 2020 Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 Definitely looks like Rangers are ahead in match preparation but also have a number of players that could easily be playing at mid to lower English Championship level so they should be beating us.
