Rangers Bingo #110: Conceding within the first minute of the 2nd half.
You could see it coming as soon as we lost a tackle in midfield and they broke away. Cook ball-watching, allowing Sargeant to pull away from him. Then the only way he was not going to score was if his own bloke got in the way.
I know we play the self-defeating “Charity Park Rangers” card a bit much, but we have conceded goals straight after HT like this for as long as I can remember. How on earth can they come out for the 2nd half and just let Norwich walk through them so easily. Tw4ts
He used to laugh about that in later years. I recall a home (v Saints?) when he was getting some fairly mild reminders, he just thought it was a laugh, waved us off at the end and got a big cheer from us.
Does anyone have a link to his pre-game interview? I can’t find it anywhere. Sounds like it was quite interesting …. which makes a change from the usual platitudes you get.
WAAAAAA! Just got in from walking the dog, didn’t take my phone and, well, you know somethings up when you’ve got messages from mates who support other teams. Thin i’ll spend a pleasant 10 mins scrolling through the Fred
We were actually one down at HT but man, how we swamped them in the second half, so much so that Tel said some time afterwards that we were the best footballing side in the country. Super Ray’s diving header will always be one of my favourite goals, bless him.
IIRC, it was the season after the Gurnham Singh game, too.
We were sh-t hot in a 3-0 win at Goodison, Bradley Allen hatrick, Wilkins was unplayable, then Les decided he’d had enough and went on a brilliant run, only to thump it over the bar towards the end. I think we were better in that one than the 5-3 win there before it, but I was sat on my hands in both games as I was in the home stands with my Blue Nose mate.
I feared the worst at 3-0 after only 55 mins. No doubt Boro are a better team but I would have liked us to shore up the midfield for this one and made it at least a bit more difficult for them to break us down. Ho hum, back to watching Tuesdays highlights.
Safe trip home to the faithful who made that long old journey.
I saw the starting line up and thought, well, he’s not learned much from the Budgies game, has he? Surely this was the game to play three in the middle.
6 from 9 is great, I know, but when you’ve already got the 6 from the first two, then don’t just chuck out the same 11 and blame the three game week straight after.
We’ve only just got over a couple of seasons where we were VERY close to going down. A cheeky flirt with the play offs but just falling short would be great this season, but that’ll do for now. Fck going up. It’ll be horrible. Consolidate over the next 2-3 seasons. Be prepared to lose a couple of players in that time - this is why we bought them young & cheap - but build it slowly.
