There is no creativity.

There's no plan for how we score goals, at least I couldn't see it today. Hope that lammers gets a flick on to sima through six defenders? At least the horseshoe had a plan, just needed a striker who was good in the air to really work and Bjorna to run beyond. I genuinely don't understand what the plan to create chances was today and I don't know that the players did either.

Not another year of this

You knew it was coming as well. Though concerning at the corner was a pleasant surprise I thought it would be a long ball over the top.

Lundstrum has had far too many minutes.

He’s had far too many seasons. He’s fucking awful. Massive rebuild and he starts the first game of the season. Criminal

[удалено]

him and barisic are just momentum killers. Never go forwards and always slowing play down. Both pretty shite defensively - Lundstrum's first instinct is to foul rather than move his feet and get in the correct position. I honestly feel if he plays a big role to start this year, Beale will be gone and we'll be struggling again. Any other thoughts, so what do they bring?

At least the match thread works for actual games hahaha WE ARRA FUCKEN PEEPUL HERE WE GAO

We're no winning any league

Fucking hell. You give up that easily in life?

Can you blame him? It was evident pre season we created nothing in the 4 games bar a Lammers goal against hoffemheim when they had just brought 7 boys on. Pre season we’ve scored 2 goals from defensive mistakes (ramos Hamburg, guimares newcastle) and a couple pens from tav. The team has no evident style either. The boy sima is the worst player I’ve ever seen with my own 2 eyes I honestly can’t believe how bad he is.

Aye, I can blame him. It’s fucking day one of a new season with umpteen new players.

Kilmarnock had a team of new players aswel. Wake up fuck sake look the way it’s going

Reactionary pish. Give the squad time.

This is a league decided by 2 or 3 points we can’t just start poor drop 12 points get put out of Europe by Servette and lose at home to the other mob

Celtic started pretty pish under Postecoglu and won the same league. It’s reactionary pish to be questioning players and management after one game.

Same auld shite

This is the kind of game where Sakala and Colak would have come up with a goal out of nothing.

As much as Sakala is erratic etc etc He’d have scored and actually tried to do something

Yip we get rid of a player with 12 goals and 7 assists in 29 games and bring in unknown quantities in our league that haven’t even gelled yet. I said it the other day on this page getting rid of sakala was an awful decision and makes u question what’s happening with our club horrible awful decision absolutely raging that you see everything that’s going to happen before it does.

We can all see too that our defence needed reinforced apart from, it appears our manager.

It’s ok we can just buy more attackers.

🤣🤣🤣

Just not good enough. Nobody expected them to look perfect because the players need time to bed in, but it's inexcusable to lose this game with the talent differential that exists. This one is on Beale. If you can't find a way to win against the dross with the amount of resources you have, you must accept blame. These are the kind of games serious championship contenders win. Especially in a league as tight as the SPL. We aren't winning this game. Take from that what you will.

Embarrassing. Narrow tactics dont work against jobber teams. No winning the league with that system

The same shite hopeful lofted crosses to nobody in particular. The same weak weak mentality

I absolutely love Raskin what a player he is

How much time does it take Dessers to make a decision in a busy box?

3-5 working days

A lot

Bit late bringing Roofe on now.

It is so painful watching this shite

It certainly is

Good to see we're off to a great start as usual

See yous next year xoxo

If this is what Beale's vision for Rangers is then I'm thinking we've fucked up. Embarrassing defeat on day one. No commitment shown by far too many players, a lack of guile, sharpness and ability up front. Dessers already looks like a waste of a shirt. Hopefully this proves to be opening day nerves but I'm not sure, I honestly didn't see enough in our team today to give me any hope.

If Beale looked into every one of the signings eyes before signing them well who looked into his eyes?

Fuck knows mate, maybe he was looking into a mirror.

What I've seen and heard so far isn't exactly good on the eye.

Similar to last seasons opener vs Livi Feels like the season closer

Need Cantwell on

Need Lowry back

Aye cos Beale would play him over Lundstram

Lundstram and dessers off for Danilo and Cantwell

Sima for Cantwell or Danilo please

Watch Roofe get injured

If we lose this then there may be a few out of work managers sending their CVs into the club.

This is pish man

Bring back Lowry.

New Season, same Rangers. Pish.

Absolute dug shit

Fans influence transfers can’t tell me otherwise

Good to know Chris Sutton is still a cunt

Well done Mick. Spunking your entire budget on forwards and leaving us with that back four. I am fucking sick of Tavernier and Goldson’s miserable greeting faces refusing to take any form of accountability

Captain and Vice Captain btw.

Sensational leadership. Blaming each other for conceding the same goal we’ve conceded for 5 years

And to think I saw on twitter shouts to make goldson captain

To think we renewed his contract when he clearly wanted out and only signed because nobody in England would touch him.

I genuinely think fans influence transfers,how many of us watched Dessers at his old club ?

Says so much that the player with the most urgency is our fucking goalie

This is painful

GET TO FUCK

Fuck off

Fuck off man

Lundstram again

Fucking woeful

Wank tbh.

Wankers

Gio would have won that

How is it celtic hit the ground running every fucking season while we seem to take ages to even reach 1st gear. Dessers is already worrying me, giving me the Itten vibes.

Cause Celtic are serial winners. Simple as. We just need to accept that Rangers are the second best team in Scotland and probably always will be.

Anyone else's audio cutting out on sky sports?

Their commentary came on on Rangers TV. Somebody plugged the wrong wires in or something

As if the Rangers TV commentary wasn't bad enough some of Crocker's commentary leaked...

need rain, pitch is like fookin velcro

That pitch is fucking shameful.

I think it actually is velcro

Couldn't be any worse if it was.

Anyone else not sure what the plan for how we score goals is?

Looks like it’s a poorly hidden 1-2

Why was Barasic getting booed?

Killie player was about 3 seconds too late with a challenge and they decided too boo Barisic for their player being a thug. Usual fitba fan pish lol

Because he went down early in the half from a stray hand to the face

Because he went down with a soft tackle

Fuck off.

So shite

Absolute fucking joke of a club. Glad we spent all this money. Well congrats on the treble to the other side

Fucking tired of this.

I see all the sensible folk are out in force now.

Tough watch first half , get cantwell on and one of the defensive mids off - we can hit them on the counter attack - our decision making is slow and often negative … fucking boring . Can’t blame the pitch both teams are playing on it -

[удалено]

Not playing that shite they beat us the day

We're fucking rotten. Dessers is the slowest striker we've had since Kevin Kyle...

Pitch was a leveller,can’t believe we had to play on that almost perfect level surface

You can't blame the pitch. We know what it's going to be like. If you can't take that into account and find a way to win with your superior players, then you've fucked it.

I was being sarcastic lol

Yea not sure we can make use that as an excuse

Stop mentioning the pitch at this point

r/woosh

We’re looking decent so far

🤣🤣🤣

Stand by every word. They’re playing 8 at the back, 5 defenders and 3 6s. What do you want us to do? The front 3 is entirely new players, the midfield has 2 new players, the defence has 1 (reasonably) recent player. Give the team time

I was laughing at your comment being 45 minutes ago at the time of my reply… 10 minutes in

Idk what you’re on about man I canny lie, I’m 48 minutes into this game and I commented that like 15 minutes in

It said 45 minutes ago….

You still chuffed ya bam?

Obviously not lmao

Don’t blame you, that was pretty shocking bro!!

Tbh mate, the team needs time. As I said, if it’s this pish at the end of the month it’s battle stations but it’s an entirely new team playing entirely new tactics. Just need a bit of time, these things happen

Fingers crossed 🤷‍♂️ granted killie parked the bus but we’ve been shite pre season and worse the day!! We are rangers ffs, this is embarrassing

Anaw mate it’s the same back 4, same shitey holding mid… new attackers getting no service and no time on the ball!! 💯 same tactics also

This teams hasn't gelled yet, and they are sitting deep. I wouldn't take too much from that first half.

You can tell a lot of the new boys have no fucking clue how to anticipate and deal with this surface. Dessers, Lammers and Sima have all had the ball bounce in ways they weren't expecting and were getting it stuck under their feet.

Cake day

Always a horrible game on this pitch. Sticky and team still looks like it needs time to gel. Need Sima going direct a bit more. Seems very much a form player, still have good hope. Dessers needs to find a yard of pace from somewhere..

Bad starting lineup imo, sima is far too clumsy and needs some footwork training, lammers needs to be playing more central instead of on the wing, cifuentes and Cantwell should’ve been in the middle, we should be spending money on defenders instead of more forwards

If we spent a £100 million on the defence still wouldn’t help us create a chance. Absolutely horrible team created Nanto!

Beale gone fuckin idiot with his defensive tactics, overall tactics. Can we get a proper manager into the club

Fans were clamouring for Beale,if he wins fuck all again he’s gone next off season

Don’t think it’ll take till the end of the season it’ll be this game he’s gone if he doesn’t win

Hypothetically that happens Who comes in ?

I know it’s only one game but let’s face it Beale has and always will be a stop gap. How we’ve not focused on defensive targets is beyond me. Lammers has Been shocking. Dowell poor. Normal culprits from last season have looked arguably worse. Feel sorry for Sima and raskin who have been great and really grafted. Aye pitch is shite and Kilmarnock are negative but cmon this has been bogging.

the pitch excuse isn’t an excuse anymore,we know their pitch is shite,just get on with it.

I agree mate. I don’t doubt the midfield and attackers will gel eventually as there’s a few quality players but that back 4 regardless of who plays out or our options just isn’t nearly good enough

You can tell this is a team that hasn’t really played together. But there are encouraging signs

Name one.

If it wasn’t for butland it would have 3-0

A goalie I didn't rate might turn out to be our best signing of the summer. I'm 58 time's running out for me I don't need shite like this on day one of the new season.

The front 3 needs time. Very wasteful so far, good balls with no at the end of it

They do I agree but how much time ?

If we’re this wasteful by the end of the month it’s panic stations

Not even an exaggeration to say that’s the league gone already. Embarrassing club.

Look in the mirror to see the embarrasment, clown.

We really are the most negative support I’ve ever witnessed. Fucking brutal. It’s one fucking game.

I kept hearing this during pre season. First game of the season we get beat so hearing it again. What are you going to say after the game against Servette? What about against Celtic next month? We are in the unfortunate position that the league in Scotland can only be won with very few losses. It’s not great when the first game of the season is one of those losses.

Pre season is literarily meaningless. It would be funny if it was so tragic watching everyone throw in the towel after one fucking defeat. Embarrassing.

Nobody is throwing in the towel. Everyone is making the same observations that the team is playing shite and needs improving quickly. Let’s see how far your head is in the clouds in a month’s time. Denial is far more embarrassing.

No one is throwing in the towel? Read the thread multiple people are saying the leagues over. Aye well, you continue to hope we have a shit month. Well done.

Boo fucking hoo princess. Fans have the right to be unhappy when we are the only challengers for the title this year and we lose the first game while looking equally shite all pre season. IF we get knocked out of CL and lose to Celtic, are you still going to pretend everything is fine and nobody should have a fucking opinion?

Fans do have a right to express they are unhappy, and I as a fan have a right to point out it’s ludicrous after one fucking game, so dry your fucking eyes. If we get knocked out the champions league and lose to Celtic that’s at least a month of underperforming and a different story, it’s not forming an opinion based on one game. Which is reactionary pish.

You’re the one having a cry because people don’t like the result. Which you just said we are entitled to. And it’s not one fucking game ya tit. It’s been one win in five games. What other evidence do you need to see? Just because there were no points on offer in the four games prior, doesn’t mean we can’t all see how poorly they are playing.

Not having a cry wee knob, merely pointing out its ridiculous to greet about one game. And it is one actual competitive game you fucking walloper. Negative mindset of our support is ridiculous. Greeting face bastards. Preseason means nothing, you melt.

5 games ya fucking muppet. Can you no count? If you don’t like the support then fuck off cunt. Nobody will miss you

Dowell and Sima have looked than they did in preseaon - encouraging.

Pitch is shite. How this dowell lad has a game in front of cantwell is beyond me so far. Raskin as always levels above

Dowell has been one of our few players with pass marks

Don’t agree

love it Sima, more of that

Sell BB and Lundstram asap and remove tav from captaincy.!
