Yesterday was some day to be an emergency service worker in Glasgow eh. 😵💫 #Rengers #Shellick #GlasgowFire
Ok just circling back to this. #Rengers #Shellick #TheReluctantJambo
Update: anyone who *DOESN’T* listen to Super Scoreboard in full tomorrow night is a sadist. #Rengers #Shellick #TheReluctantJambo
Rangers and Celtic are both losing 1-0 in the early stages, leaving Hearts with a (theoretical) five-point lead in the Scottish Premiership.
This as-it-stands table is brought to you by our good friends at Heart of Midlothian: “Hearts - For The Fans”. #Rengers #Shellick
Ed Miliband looks up.
Hearts 2-0 Rangers at half time.
Ed Miliband is stunned.
Ok this is a positive and right now I need two positives. #TheReluctantJambo #Rengers
BBC Scottish Football homepage focuses on the containing woes of Celtic and Rangers: “Celtic abandon AGM amid ‘sack the board' chants Celtic's annual meeting is abandoned after shareholders jeered when director Ross Desmond accused some fans of being ‘bullies’.” “Rangers reveal £14.8m loss despite record revenues”.
Don’t want club football to come back, just want to relive Tuesday forever and awwww go on then. 🫣 #Rengers #Shellick
BBC live text of Rangers 0-2 Roma: “The Rangers fans seem to be having bother unfurling another banner. It's blowing about the place.”
They didnt have any problems putting all those flags up, surely one wee banner is a piece of cake. #Rengers
New York Times article last week: “Danny Rohl second to pull out from Rangers manager job running after Steven Gerrard The German was interviewed by the club's hierarchy after leaving Sheffield Wednesday in...”
BBC Sport today: “Rangers end manager search by appointing Rohl Rangers end their search for a new head coach by appointing former Sheffield Wednesday manager Danny Rohl.”
Has any human being ever ruled themselves out of a managerial hunt then ruled themselves back in? #Rengers #InThisCityYouDontGetTime
BBC Sport asks Rangers fans about the managerial vacancy, after the top three candidates all pulled out of the running: “Who do fans want now? McCoist, Ferguson or Postecoglou?” Edward: “What about David Martindale? Done a great job for Livingston. Could do a lot worse.” Stephen: “Ange is free!”
Hahahaha good god almighty. What do you even say at this point? #Rengers
Ah telt ye, didn’t ah? Ah telt yeese aw! #Rengers
Glasgow Times (is it not called the Evening Times?) reports a, “Major Kevin Muscat to Rangers twist as ‘fears of late collapse' emerge”.
Super Scoreboard is often so dull I give it a wide berth, but tomorrow could be an all-timer.
Glaswegian men bristling and on the verge of greeting, everywhere you look (listen). Can I sit at the back of the studio? #Rengers #Shellick #InThisCityYouDontGetTime
Ed Miliband looks up into the corner.
BBC Sport: “BREAKING Gerrard rejects chance to return as Rangers boss Steven Gerrard has turned down the chance to return to Rangers for a second stint as manager.”
Ed Miliband is floored.
Discourse, gerrall yer discourse here. Two for a pound-ah! Toofirapoundah! #Rengers
Good luck recruiting the next guy: “we’ll probably sack you in 12 months tops, everyone is mediocre, the atmosphere will always be some form of toxic and if you draw five games you’ll need a police escort to get into your car.” #Rengers
Man Utd finally confirming their status as the Rangers of England (which, ironically, Rangers have always wanted to be). #CarabaoCup #ChampionsLeague #Rengers #ThisIsManchesterUnitedWereTalkingAbout
BBC Sport: Club Brugge 5-0 Rangers (8-1 on aggregate) approaching half time in the Champions League play-off 2nd leg.
Has a club ever just left the stadium at half time? #ChampionsLeague #Rengers
BBC live text: “Rangers 0-3 Club Brugge Fans are leaving Ibrox. We have played 21 minutes.” It has 1681 likes and 178 dislikes.
The BBC live text continues: ‘Sack Martin tonight' “This is a total embarrassment!!” (Russell) “Get Martin out tonight.” (Chris)
Agreed to miss the first half and let my child watch cartoons during her dinner, and I want you to know that no father in the history of Earth has made a bigger sacrifice. #Rengers
A Rengers Man wearing a simply incredible Union Jack hoodie throws his arms into the air defiantly.
A Rengers Man sits with his arms folded inside an empty Ibrox and looks deflated.
Tfw you’re about to kick-off against Club Brugge vs. tfw you’re 20mins into the Club Brugge match. #Rengers
A black t-shirt with superimposed text saying, “IN THIS CITY YOU DON’T GET TIME”.
Drink every time a Super Scoreboard / Sportsound / Open All Mics pundit says #InThisCityYouDontGetTime.
(Could be a new badass catchphrase for Glasgow ahead of the Commonwealth Games, now that folk are fed up of “People Make Glasgow”? #Shellick #Rengers)
The Simpsons meme, but instead the guy is saying, “There’ll be no 2pm fireworks then. I’ll tell the children.”
Glaswegian football men like to buy fireworks before big occasions (Old Firm matches, title deciders etc.), and set then off in the middle of the day for some reason.
The sound you can hear is about 100,000 fireworks being packed back in a shed at the bottom of the garden. #Shellick #Rengers
BBC live text: Athletic Bilbao take a 1-0 lead at Ibrox against the 10 men of Rangers.
However, the referee receives word from “VAR” that the goal shouldn’t stand because of an offside.
The referee goes to the pitch side monitor and agrees to disallow the goal, but spots a potential handball from a Rangers defender in the build-up to the goal, which is now not a goal… the ref then gives a penalty, and the Bilbao fans don’t know whether to laugh or cry.
Rangers’ 2nd-choice goalkeeper then saves the penalty, obviously, because Rangers are a freak of nature in the Europa League. The BBC don’t even know who took the penalty, amidst the bedlam of the last few minutes.
Hahaha imagine going back in time 10 years and trying to explain this to someone. #VAR #EuropaLeague #Rengers
BBC: Man Utd defeat Rangers 2-1 after an utterly ridiculous game of football. United scored in the 52nd minute after a comical own goal from Rangers keeper Jack Butland, who punched the ball into his own net from a corner. However, a blunder from #Slabhead Harry Maguire in the 88th minute gifted Cyriel Dessers an equaliser. Utd then won it in the 92nd minute with a Bruno Fernandes strike, for a laugh.
Well I was hoping for something funny, but this surpassed it. Discourse for everyone. Super Scoreboard could be six hours tomorrow and I wouldn’t complain. #Rengers #ThisIsManchesterUnitedWereTalkingAbout
Celtic 3-3 Rangers after extra time in the League Cup final. Celtic win 5-4 on penalties.
“Man City” 1-2 Man Utd, after a dramatic late collapse from the team hit with #115Charges for breaking every law in the sport.
Southampton 0-5 Tottenham at half time.
Ed Miliband stunned by all of this.
They won’t write a book about today, because you don’t write books about single days. But if they did, I’d buy it. #Shellick #Rengers #115Charges #ThisIsManchesterUnitedWereTalkingAbout #AngeBall #WellLookMate
