They deserve immense credit for doing what they had to do and the league was their primary focus, but let's not pretend Celtic were pish because if Rangers. Celtic were pish because of Celtic and Rangers took advantage. We've no idea if this Rangers team would have crumbled in the league like they did last season if it was closer going into the business end of the season. Because it was never close. It's easy not to crumble when you know you can afford to lose 4 or 5 games. But they did crumble under pressure in the two cups they thought they were going to win. So, yeah, I stand behind my view they've come on leaps and bounds under Gerrard, but done nowhere near enough to be considered even close to the Celtic team Rodgers built. Rangers have won 1 trophy in 9. Rodgers team, falling apart and run by a buffoon, won 6 of those 9. And I say that not really giving a damn about either side of the old firm, just as someone who watches a lot of football. The numbers speak for themselves really. The numbers do speak for themselves. Knockout cups are hugely influenced by variance. It’s not sensible to judge a managerial record against that kind of competition. Ultimately, Rangers priorities each season are 1) League 2) Europe 3) the Cups. If you excel in 1&2, no one cares if you f**k up 3. Comparing it to Rodgers team is stupid. Rodgers inherited an all-conquering team and then left one to Lennon. Gerrard had Jason Holt and Ross McCrorie in midfield before he joined. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverWolfe Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 I live in a shared house in south-east London with a bunch of strangers. I'm stuck in a room beside a nightmare of a man called Martin who tells me I can't watch football because he doesn't like football and it's too loud for him when I watch it at a regular volume on my Mac. Anyway, I've just watched football at a regular volume on my Mac and burst into loud, heavy tears. No regrets. Get to f**k, Martin.Maybe if you have a jobby Martin, yer mammy can wipe yer arse for you Martin. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagfox Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Ronny Deila has won more doubles than Stevie G...who has never taken the Rangers past the quarter finals of the Scottish Cup in three attempts... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SANTAN Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 At least we won the league. Good luck Saints. I sincerely want you to do the double now. Hopefully this will serve as inspiration for next year if we don't sell our best players... Signing off for the night. Don't @ me. -3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G51 Posted April 25, 2021 Author Share Posted April 25, 2021 Also, Callum Davidson deserves some credit. On a budget that’s nowhere close to Hibs or Aberdeen, never mind the OF, he’s put together a really well organised side that is both extremely durable and really adaptable. McCann is one of the finest young midfielders in the league and I’ll be astonished if he doesn’t move elsewhere this summer. If they can hang on to Davidson next year, they’re going to be legitimate challengers for third. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
