Good lord Rangers are a funny team. I hope Hearts can keep it up this season after their false start last week, another procession for Celtic would be terrible for the league.

I know I shouldn't but......................

WHILE I'M WORTH MY ROOOOOMMMM ON THIS EARTH 

[Vacamion]

Social Media up here revelling in the "Derek McWinless" stuff.

 

Plenty of refrences to and comparisons with Russell Martin, as well.

It has had it's interesting season.

Hibs fans are broadly quite restless with Gray as well, think they're a bit too leaky and soft sometimes, great win but Rangers really do look a mess. Chermiti getting stretchered off when they were likely going to get decent money for him makes a bad afternoon worse. OH WELL

[BenTheFox]

Thing is with Rangers. This manager might, with time, start to turn things around. The problem is, you don't get that at Rangers. That fanbase is on your back straightaway because there is a demand to win every game. I feel like they're stuck in an iternal doom loop.

COUGH

Will only accept football from a ‘Rangers man’ while anyone trying to install some kinda of long term plan gets hounded out

Another bad result for Rangers.

 

Will now drop down to the Conference league play-offs.

 

I think they play a Czech side?

Might be Czech out mate for McInnes if Rangers lose.

It's not even the middle of August and it has started  

 

This was in the BBC comments, but there's plenty expressing their anger elsewhere, too:

There could be 4 Scottish teams in the conference league group stage 

[Tommy Fresh]

That's a shame isn't it

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

Pretty tough tie against Gent for Hibs, would be bloody class if they could reach the league stage

Motherwell got Freiburg too which is tricky.

 

Rangers probably got the most winnable tie but …

From Reddit.   Didn't know whether to share it in this thread, or in the Do They Mean Us thread.

 

 

, but then again, on reflection

Rangers look awful.

Yeah looking at the opposition, I think Hearts probably have the best chance if they can find their form over the next two weeks. Realistic chance they all lose.

A Belgian for the Scots ?

I just saw that. Never heard of the guy but hopefully a fresh start for certain players that Clarke has just been ignoring.

Rangers v Celtic in the league cup quarter final 🤣

Both Edinburgh clubs will be happy with Stenny and Ross C. 

 

Killie Aberdeen 50/50.

Mon the Well! 1-0 up v Freiburg 

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

Hibs have had a pen saved in Belgium, 0-0 Jeff

Good draw though.

Rangers co-owner arrested and convicted of "disorderly conduct and possessing criminal tools". Harsh description of Shankland that.
