Rangers in the UEFA Cup

Well they never showed much in the way of a threat last night, but then neither did Rangers (which isn’t uncommon) so I don’t think there’s too much to fear for the second leg. Don’t think Weir is such a great loss, he wasn’t with it last night and Dailly is more than capable of coming in.

I reckon Novo and Cousin will start in Lisbon and if everyone else does their job, ie the boring stuff, it’s more than possible. Still a bit early to start dreaming, but I don’t think any Rangers fan expected to be in this position.

You could be right, as much as they needed an away goal I’d have felt better about the second leg if we had got one or two to take over there.

Bremen, one of the teams I thought were among the favourites. If Big Al hadn’t been on top form in the away leg (think we were leading 2-0 from the home tie) then they’d have went through as they looked different class on their home turf.

Panathinaikos? (or something similar :lol: )

Must admit, I was pleasantly surprised. Thought everyone played their part, Darcheville was full of running and energy (what a signing for a free transfer) and Whittaker was probably the biggest shock of the night :D

We’ll miss Fergie & Thomson in the next game (even though it was their own stupidity, especially Fergie) and I had hoped Bayern would get knocked out. Fatigue could be a problem, as you said BM, but I thought Rangers were jaded against Dundee United at the weekend – didn’t look it last night though. Don’t think Walter & Ally would allow it :lol:
