Post Match Analysis ,rangers v Celtic.

1) anybody who thought the referee didnt affect matters is a hun and wasnt watching the same game as me, full stop. 1st half Celtics, 2nd Half Rangers, Sending off left us whae nae chance.

2) Kenny Miller should have been sent off. he delibratley hand bawed it when Fortune done less and got booked. Then he snapped o dea similarly like lafferty done Hinkel last game

3) I counted Boughera had 6 really bad fouls and should have got sent off at least in 1st half. So Should Papac, particullarly 1 on the edge of the box, shawcross - like.

4) if you where going to to send anybody off, it was laugherty instead of Brown.

5) Hinkel played his best game. In the 1st half he was immense, particularly for 1 backpost header when he has left 2 on 1. Boruc equally as good.

6) Mowbrary hasnt got a plan B, or plan A, Bra- heid couldnae defend a sand castle.

 

I agree with everything you said mate. Miller...Should have been booked for the handball. Bougherra...the tackle on Keane was a yellow so a red should have followed. We all know about LAUGHerfy, smith took him off due to him being a disgrace.

 

Watched the game in my Gfs house and when they scored I nearly kicked the TV in coz we all know 0-0 would have done. In the first half I thought we played OK as we had a lot of the ball, but didn't really hurt them in the final third, though missed a couple of sitters eg Fortuné and Keane. At half-time Smith obv booted his players backsides coz for most of the second half, the bal lwas played in the Celtic half as they pressed us further and further. Maybe someone can corect me if I'm wrong but I cannot remember us having one single attack or chance in the second half nor even a single shot on target , the only time the ball went in their box was a couple of free-kicks which obv came to absolute zilch. it was the must subdued Celtic end I have ever seen at Ibrox coz our attack was non-existent in the second-half. Time for Tony to go and someone in the ilk of Gerard Houllier or Ronald Koeman in. Anyone agree or disagree with the points I've made.

 

the problem was we couldnt even run with the * ball, foul after foul being commited then the minute one of our own breathes the wrong way it becomes a big deal.i wouldnt mind finding out how many fouls were commited by the huns and compare it to us.Imo the whole setup of the SPL is biast, just makes me hate them more.

 

He done absolutely nothing. Samaras was more active when he came on although the fact samras isnt irish it means he gets more stick from everyone on here

But if you had read my post and not just the first line you would understand what i mean. I wasnt refering to keane personally, just the 'Keane problem'. I will type again.

Why does a player who hasnt trained all week get an automatic start? If he was some special star that had scored in every game for us then yes we need a star like that to start. so start him. However he has scored a penalty and 1 other goal. Why did Spurs let him come up? Cause he couldnt score. So why are we paying 65k p/w for someone whos having troube finding the net?

Why is he not taken off and fortune is, he was fitter than Keane has scored more goals than Keane and was more involved in the game.

I could rattle on more about how much this Keane signing has backfired but really cant be arsed. would probably fall deaf on all irish ears anyway.

 

have a word , honestly....................

 

why? nothing in his post was wrong.

 

it's a a lot to ask with 10 men plus you're playing against the referee. that said, mogga was a hinderance as usual and should be gone

 

them celtic players on that park today can play alot better than that .. there was no umph in the team no passion or strength .. rangers bullied them today im afraid and it could have been 5 or 6 if it wasnt for the holy goalie felt sorry for keane the day .. his face at the end of the match said it all .. he couldnt get a sniff

 

i hope samaras isn't what you are proposing as the answer here. to your point, keane didn't train all week yet his work rate was triple that of samaras. samaras is *, you can't still be defending him m8

 

What did he say?

 

Team Selection + Substitutions

Today I cannot understand the team selection and substitutions.

1st of all why did McGeady play today when it was clear to all he wasn't fit. Mowbray admitted after the game that he had been suffering with a bug over the last couple of days so why take a gamble of that magnitude in what was a MUST game win. I'm sorry but for me he should not have played.

The substitutions:

Bringing on Sammy, I'm sorry but how he comes on before Big Ras is beyond me. Although Sammy came on at right wing we would have been better with bringing on big Ras and and Keano going on to right wing. At least Keane would track back and show a bit fight unlike Sammy.

Ki??? Why the f**k do you bring on a 21 lad who is not known for getting stuck in with 20 mins to go when we are trying to hold out for a draw!!

I'm sorry but in my eyes the decisions made today were poor from the management team. I'm not screaming from the roof tops asking Mogga to be sacked I just think he got it wrong.

On a plus thoguht O'dea did brilliant when he came on and Rogne was doing fine until being injured.

 

Mowbray hasn't got a clue and regretfully it is looking like my earlier prediction of losing this league by 16+ points might well still come true.
He has no idea of building a defence and our midfield is powderpuff and was overun all day long by the Huns. We never got one single shot in on their goal the whole of ther second half which was a disgrace, and they had about nine corners and we didn't get one. As for Fortune he typifies Mowbray's tenure in my opinion, inept and lacking composure. That miss by our our £4M striker was shocking, he should have burst the net, but never even got it on target. Braffheid couldn't keep chickens out of a midden, and N'Guemo was appalling. Our most deadly striker Rasmussen is made to sit in the bench because of Mowbray's favouritism for Fortune, and what does he do when he brings Fortune off, puts on Samaras. I just can't fathom his tactical naivety at all. Anyway league is over in February and we are going nowhere under the Three Stooges.

 

no where did you get that from? in the 20 mins samaras was on i saw him more than i did keane the whole game. but no one criticizes keanes performance? cause it was * poor. i just think the transfer has totally backfired we needed a goal scorer and we brought in this clown, whos best years are gone, for 65k p/w just to keep the fans happy. and because of his ridiculous wages we are forced to play him despite him not being fit?

 

heard that before brown got sent off ras was about to be brought on but still no excuses ki is *

 

Ki is too lighweight for a physical tussle in an OF game , But what the * it sell shirts in Korea or am I being cynical .

 

:bbpd::bbpd:

 

Yeah great sub eh - Ki will put the boot in in these type of games....NOT !!

Rasmussen must be thinking what do i have to do to get on in front of that big greek waste of space.

Cheers Tony great vision bringing a Midfielder on for a Forward.....legend

 

Exactly as long as we sell shirts and make a bob or two the money men are satisfied

 

Ki should've started instead of McGeady, to offer a passing option, and to help control the game pace. He is not a player to send in when you want to close a game, though. Not playing Rasmussen from the start is an extremely baffling decision.
