Rangers fans stood up (those that were seated) firstly on 10 mins to clap & chant
'Stanley, Stanley'. Then there was a minutes applause on 14 mins for young Ollie.
A free flowing move for our first goal prompted wild scenes from the
3,000 Rangers fans.
All the Home fans could muster was a very brief: 'You're Going Down, You're Going Down'
Followed by: 'We're Going Up, We're Going Up.'
R's fans sang all through the game, after the final whistle & then outside the ground
& beyond.
The lino on our side was getting pelters for not keeping up with play & in the
2nd half three fouls in very, very quick succession only prompted a free kick after the
third one.
There was a ridiculous foul on Jimmy Dunne near the corner flag & ref gave it the other way
Sinclair's first touch was knocking over an opponent & he smashed his first touch of the ball into the
net, cue even wilder scenes Someone texted me to say that the reporter on Sky had said that
it was the longest celebration she had ever seen...
Despite being under pressure for much of the 2nd half, we could/should have added a 3rd goal in the
closing stages.
Rangers players gave their all & there is only one stat that matters.
Marti & all the players came over after the final whistle & we cheered them & they clapped us.

Re: Yesterday at Leicester...(updated)
Sounds like we out-performed on & off the pitch!
Gary Lineker, can you hear me?? Your boys took one hell of a beating!!

Re: Yesterday at Leicester...(updated)
Some reports say nearly 4 minutes added on for that Sinclair Celebration ........
Well that may have been all very nice at the time BUT in todays modern game in a
tight situation you simply cannot afford to have these extra minutes added on at the death.
The Fat Lady is a very dangerous opponent indeed

Re: Yesterday at Leicester...(updated)
I expected more time to be added on.....
think it was 'just' 5/6.....
And we could/should have added a third...
