Rangers’ 1-0 Win Against St Johnstone Elicits Varied Fan Responses

Following Rangers’ 1-0 victory over St Johnstone, supporters shared their perspectives on the match. Here are some of the comments received: George described the performance as “A disgrace,” stating it was the “Worst Rangers team I have followed.” Bill found the first half “Boring,” noting the second half was “a bit better.” He expressed optimism for Ianis Hagi’s improvement with more games but doubted Robin Propper’s potential, stating, “Can’t see Robin Propper ever improving.” Steve characterized the win as “A turgid three points,” but added that “after the result on Thursday I’m happy with the points.” Peter considered it a “Decent game after a good European game,” suggesting the team “Could have had a couple in the first half but kept at it.” He acknowledged St Johnstone as “A hard team to break down when they defend in numbers but deserved the win.” Peter also highlighted Robin Propper as “A big concern,” observing that “he likes European games but not our league games,” and expressed hope that “he’s not looking for an escape route out in January, he has to knuckle down and get to grips with the pace of our league.” Fraser contrasted Rangers’ struggle to score with Celtic’s performance, stating, “Celtic score five without breaking sweat and we toiled to score one.” He urged that “Philippe Clement must now go for proven strikers during the January sales,” concluding that “this season is all but over if we’re being honest with ourselves, we must hit the ground running come the summer.” Lennie described the match as “Another very frustrating display,” questioning, “I don’t understand why we can’t put teams like St Johnstone away.” He noted, “We were a different team in the second half,” and asked, “when are we going to see 90 minutes from this team?” Ronnie declared, “Three points but I’m not celebrating,” finding the game “a painful watch against an average St Johnstone side.” He pointed out, “We didn’t even score the goal,” and remarked that “Three league goals away from home tells you everything.” Ronnie identified Hagi as “One bright note,” who “showed touches and a bit of vision,” but criticized, “Clement has no idea how to solve this. Rotating your number nine doesn’t work.” Tim expressed hope that “the new CEO starting later this month has been briefed on looking for a new manager.” He warned that “The supporters will not tolerate this level of performance domestically week on week and if the board fail to act they will be seen as the main cause of the decline.” Gerry advocated for “more of the academy players come through,” observing that the team “sometimes look like a team of misfits.” He relayed an analogy: “Rangers are like a partner cheating on you at the weekend and then taking you out on Thursday night,” and asserted, “Celtic would have scored at least two by half time against St Johnstone.” Murray offered a contrasting view, stating, “I don’t think the game was as bad as some fans are saying.” He noted that “Players were trying and although the game was won by an own goal, it was forced by James Tavernier’s presence and Hagi’s cross,” concluding, “Move on to Kilmarnock now and hopefully gain momentum.”
