Alex Rae

he was unplayable yesterday he missed a couple of chances but he's all good players he keeps going and gets himself another double he's been fantastic for Celtic in the last couple of weeks and who knows he might get them that title Top performer Alex?

no I totally agree with you there the money Rangers spent in the transfer window you let a kid because he's a young boy maybe he deserved a chance at Rangers and he's went to Camarnock and he's shown what he's all about and he's been down there and helped Neil McCann and Billy Dodge so Rangers might rule that loan deal right then 01419511025 maybe you're a Celtic fan that wants to focus on the podcast

finance this manager and trying to be balanced and fair to Danny Rowe he said one transfer window which is not a great deal it's not a good mark either that time in January when the money he spent and the players he brought in you could see the buzz that were round about the Rangers supporters they fought and by the way a lot of us fought as well that they came out of that so strongly and everybody kind of thought Rangers could go on to win this title the fact that Rangers had only lost two games up until the post split fixtures to then go on free and lose free on a row when you're pushing for a club like Rangers to go and win a title

that is simply not good enough and by the way I've been on this show in the last couple of weeks and I've said about Danny Rowe and I felt and I still do feel he deserves a pre-season and get these same players in because at the same time it's easy to shout at the manager the players that are there need to take a huge responsibility this is now the second manager at Rangers and if you actually look at the game yesterday Rangers started extremely well

Romans and Tavernier had the freedom of Celtic Park on the flanks The two, Mikey Moore and Ant-Man were coming into the pockets Tying up Celtic's full backs Rangers' problem was the quality They could not get the ball to those wide players to really go and hurt them And on a few occasions where they actually did get it to Tavernier He would hit the first man and that is so unlike him So there were signs of Rangers starting extremely well They get the first goal But as soon as Celtic get level And then obviously they score the two goals in the second half

he needs to be quicker and I just don't think he's got it So here's one for you Mark for example if Danny Rowe does go who would you like to see as a Rangers manager going forward then?

the second goal where Giga I don't know where Giga's going I know there's a Celtic player in front of him but he can speak to I think it's Connor Barron Connor Barron get him to help you stay in your position stay compact don't breach your line don't breach your line when the ball goes wide if he's in his position he clears it but he's not he gets sucked under the ball ball over the tap Taveriers get his hand up for offside Celtic are in ball across and Fernandes for me as well he's got to open his body he's got to see Maida coming across him and be a defender get your arm across him block him

It's not just that.

It's the first time for 26 years they've lost three in a bounce as well.

So, get into their game on Wednesday night, they'll be hoping to bounce back just to get rid of those defeats three in a row.

I understand where Ross is coming from.

He's very angry right now because Rangers were so close and a lot of people had them as favourites to go on and win the title, but...

the way it's played out in these post-Blitz fixtures that they've lost three in a row and a lot of the fans are saying they've only played for 45 minutes and you can see that because even the game before that when they played Falkirk

they never played particularly well first half second half they were excellent and then after that you think right Rangers have got the momentum here and then they go and Murdoch were outstanding they get themselves in front of Hearts they were excellent that first half against Hearts and then it was like a different team that comes out yesterday I actually thought they started really well they go in front but then Celtic level and then they go in and win the game and Rangers disappear second half it's

so and I think it is a mentality thing he keeps dodging that question as Alex said earlier on but it is a mentality thing I think the players need to take a bit of responsibility for that Danny Rule did manage to close that gap from 13 points to one point at one point Ross does that count for anything now just given what's happened over the past three games

Ross mentioned the board there as well.

and that's listen if Rangers couldn't win the league finishing second that Champions League potential money if they could go through those qualifiers and get to the Champions League so there's all these things to factor in because at the end of the day football club like Rangers it's a business it's about making money and getting the revenue in and that might hamper Rangers getting into the transfer window in the summer who knows Ross a lot of money was spent this season a lot of players are brought in is there still another big rebuild to do this summer

In this day and age, for me, I think it's a red card.

I'm not saying he's went in to try and break the boy's leg, but the studs are up and it's endangering an opponent, and that, for me, is why it's a red card.

It didn't get given, and Celtic probably got away with one in that matter, but other than that, instant, Celtic deserved their victory, regardless if it went down to 10 or 11 players.
