‘Fragile Rangers need support not snarling’

Must read

[BBC]

Things at Rangers are far from rosy. The shambolic performance and result at Parkhead were followed by the moronic abuse of James Tavernier after the match.

The team have looked low on confidence and ability so far this season but the only thing we can do as fans as is get behind them.

Rangers seem fragile and having a fanbase who are snarling and ready to go tonto at the first bad pass is not the way to help the team out of this situation. Rather, they are more likely to go into their shell.

Things are tough for the fans just now but all we can do is support the players and hope the manager can get a tune out of them and see where we are when we get to the next international break.

We have to reset and go again. We are five points behind a team that looks like they are going to motor away and be clear by Christmas. We are also behind Aberdeen, who are enjoying this early spell under their new manager.

Dundee United on Sunday will be a tough afternoon; every game feels like that. The season already feels like a complete chore destined to end in failure.

However, we need to see a proper reaction from the players and the manager. It’s all up to them, let’s see how they respond.

Stand up and be counted or fold under pressure. We’re about to find out which players will fit into which category and if the manager will find a style and shape that fits the players he has at his disposal.
