Sad state of affairs at the two biggest clubs in the country these days tbh.

Why because we don't have 8 strikers? your the biggest idiot on this forum now Let has gone, Congratulations! 
Speaking of depth in the squad, maybe the injury to Valencia will result in Bebe getting a few games?

Yeah true. Being unbeaten is pretty shitty for United.

Sorry.

dunno why you are laughing tbh
I'm laughing because the thought of Rangers mounting any serious attack last night is ridiculous. Fair play for having a game plan and it working but to suggest bringing on a 20 year old winger that's on loan would have won you the game is laughable. Lafferty was brought on to try and hold the ball up when the defence hoofed the ball clear.

i know exactly why lafferty was brought on. dont see what difference it makes how old weiss is or whether we own him or that he's on loan.

I'd have accepted a draw against them if they'd actually tried to play football and fought for it and deserved it. As it is they stood there with 1 goalkeeper, 9 defenders and another guy stood on the half way line like a spare part. Any old pro team could do that if they wanted to. It wasn't even as though they were trying to play a counter attacking game, they rarely got out their own half Boring, boring, boring.

Dont know what you mean IVIark
Hammer - I wish I had watched Rangers in the Champions League before I went as if I'd known that's how they play I genuinely wouldn't of gone! Must be depressing being a Rangers fan if that's the sort of football you have to put up with watching

I can see that and it worked for you in that respect. Thing is we aren't as good as Barcelona but there's no way we'd go out and do what Rangers did, we'd still have a go and hope it pays off! Unfortunately it didn't do last time but I'd rather we went out trying.

to void between you and barca isnt as great as it is between us though
we will almost certainly do the same against valencia away from home and maybe attack abit at home

Can't believe you are justifying that performance, yes that is the game plan, but it's completely anti-football and i'd sooner not support a team that plays like that than support rangers
Not even attempting to play any sort of football all game is a disgrace to the game
Again, yes you got the point and well done to them, but how any rangers fan can be happy watching that shit is beyond me

you wouldnt be so disgusted with it if you were to have won
its the fact it worked against you that you are so upset
granted i would like them to try and play football against everyone but that would have ended up us getting beat 3 or 4-0
why would i be happy about us getting beat

I would still have been disgusted with it, i hate it when teams don't even try to play the game properly
Your goalkeeper was a disgrace as well, time wasting, and good on the ref for booking him early
The only thing i'll say about that ref is that he was shocking, not just with us, but with you as well, any sort of physical contact and he was blowing up for a foul
Me personally would sooner try and play and get beat, rather than do that

I'm daft too then because I agree with Strick. I'd rather get beat trying to play football than standing 9 men on the edge of the penalty area for 90 minutes.

Rangers fans did me a favour without knowing it last night. They had a convoy of their coaches with police escorts and all the roads they passed through closed to let them out last night straight to the motorway so I managed to pull out in to the middle of it between a couple of coaches and avoid all the traffic

Can somebody tell me why the Radio5 Live presenters were saying it was a historic night for Rangers?

Maybe its because they managed to create one of the most boring matches in the history of football?

Yes i must be pretty daft, i pay good money to watch good football and be entertained, and as much as i don't like losing, i'd sooner lose knowing we had a go rather than not
You'll not understand that though being an arm-chair fan
