Rangers were out in force at Liverpool Street station before the game and the atmosphere both inside and out of the Wetherspoons was buzzing. Great singing all round.
We must be by far the loudest and most loyal away support in London, sat with my brother, a Spud, in the North Stand and from there Rangers out sung the home fans by miles. The only time they cheered was after each goal and then they just sat, no jumping, no joy, absolute sh*te support. Even at 3-1 they we all moaning and unhappy with Spurs performance.
Whats with the 'Your sisters your Mum chant' at Barton?, that and the Ledley King song was about all they sung. Even the 'spurs go marching in' was very poor.
When I jumped up as Bothroyd scored noone said anything, unbelievable! I clapped every Kenny save in the second half and was pretty vocal in my support but noone challenged me , couldn't believe it. By the end of the game, to give them their due, half a dozen of them said to me that Rangers had a good second half.
I thought Warnock got it right second half, but surely he knows by now that the 4-2-3-1 formation isn't working in the prem. Adel, for me, needs a confidence boost if NW is going to persist with him, he was shocking. Thought HH was solid, Bothroyd looked better but Gabbidon well off the pace and watching MOTD2 this morning, defensively we were all out of shape. If NW uses a 4-5-1 vs Man City we may keep the score down to 2 or 3, but then we'll never score, and that is going to be a problem, we compete well defensively and in midfield, but really lack quality in the final third.
Overall I thought our performance was pretty good but we do need a goalscorer come January. Our fans were fantastic, as always, and many thanks to those of you who kept a eye on my lad in the upper tier of the away section.
