Match Thread St Johnstone v Rangers - 12:15 Sunday - BT Sports

[Billy's Big Toe]

Great ball by Tav after great distribution from shagger...

 

[CaptainObjective]

Tempo is too slow, suits St Johnstone.

 

[Marlo Stanfield]

Clumsy and scrappy the last few mins

 

[Chastu]

missing arfield here

 

[TheBridgeLoyal]

Does Goldson realise we’re playing in red today

 

[Jaws II]

Midfield playing well, Ojo and Barker have to start doing a bit more.

 

[roaring meg]

Scrappy and dull

 

[VGM]

Boring as hell

 

[JimmyBuffetloyal]

Goldson's distribution is rank

 

[Homelander]

Absolutely chronic game to watch

 

[WATP_74]

How was that not a free kick on aribo? Ffs.

 

[Mr_Miscellaneous]

This linesman is useless.

 

[CaptainCourageous]

Do some thing with the ball, make some thing happen.

 

[Partickger]

Another developing shit show from the ref.

 

[Barnster Bear]

We need a spark or up the tempo

 

[Gerrard55]

missing arfield here

He’s been anonymous most of the season?

 

[Seaside Blue]

Turgid,tippy tappy and slow. Need to up the tempo.

 

[devilman]

We are in control of the game but need that killer break

 

[Danger Zone]

This has European hangover written all over it. Everything’s slower, less urgency and the sharpness has gone.

 

[AnglianBear]

Dallas hates Aribo.

 

[borderbear]

Half an hour and barely laid a glove on them. Need more intensity and urgency.

 

[mustn’t grumble]

We look tired, need a goal soon and hopefully kick on.

 

[sprally]

Jesus this is torture to watch.
Is going to be a long afternoon.
C’mon the Gers!

 

[WATP_74]

Another foul on aribo. Ffs.

 

[Unicorn]

I think most Away games are going to be like this, especially after a Euro game.

I’ll take a scrappy 1-0 right now.

 

[Jaws II]

Wtf that was a foul.

 

[Marlo Stanfield]

Aribo really struggles against the hammer throwers

 

[HowdenEnder]

Aribo barged off the ball twice in a minute, no foul.

 

[blue barney]

Need more intensity, they are quite happy to slow the game down

 

[mad4rfcme]

So you can just push a man off the ball now, mist that change in the rules.

 

[Lovenkrands]

Our final ball needs to improve massively.

Not just to today, but overall we play decent stuff until we get into that final third, and either choose the wrong option or throw in a poor ball.

The poets still have a better cutting edge in that area is my concern.

 

[BobbyShearer]

We’re needing someone to rattle into a hard challenge and get things fired up a bit.

It’s too pedestrian and the danger is the clock keeps ticking on.

Hopefully Jack will leave one on that cun.t May shortly and get us going.

 

[dh1963]

Lots of possession with no real pace or creativity.

This is like a carbon copy of a lot of games we dropped points last year.

 

[monkey magic]

Unless changes up front are made quickly, we could lose this today. This is like the Timpanzee game at Ibrox after beating Legia in the European tie days before. We're not threatening Saints much.

 

[Boab4]

Always think it's crazy how a professional footballer can be so bad at something as simple as passing the ball, Goldson is rotten at it yet earns a fortune doing it for a living.

 

[Vote For Pedro]

We need to speed up our play, giving them time to get sorted. It’s been comfortable for them, run them ragged Rangers!

 

[HeverleeRFC]

This is awful, surely no neutral would tune in to watch Scottish football except an old firm game.

 

[Antsy]

I hate when we play at this slow pace.

 

[devilman]

He’s been anonymous most of the season?

That really isn't true

 

[noucamp72]

The lack of a real cutting edge in the final third could be our downfall this season.

 

[Brian Laudrup]

As much of an anti climax as expected after thursday

 

[sirstevefleming]

A fairly typical Sunday match - no one particularly bad but everyone just seems a bit leggy. I really wouldn’t be against the idea of whole sale changes for these games - players just don’t seem capable of producing high energy performances within a short turn around.

 

[Lovenkrands]

Goldson’s distribution is awful!

 

[CaptainCourageous]

This is absolutely garbage.

 

[rossgers]

Ran out of ideas now. Barker is a passenger.

 

[Ubik]

we dont look like scoring here

 

[bert]

What’s wrong with king see he’s no on bench

 

[mad4rfcme]

Need to be quicker, sharper in and around the box Gers.

 

[Chastu]

no movement gotta make yourself available strolling around here

 

[Jaws II]

No excuses here Rangers you pressed fucking Feyenoord do it to this shit mob.
