Not to be pedantic........you say that but we scored 10 goals in the league that season against Celtic. Only 4 of them were scored by forwards and McGarvey got 3 of those. ETA......that said, in the 3 victories against Rangers we scored 8 goals and they were all scored by forwards. 🤣 Edited December 28, 2020 by TPAFKA Jersey 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russian Saint Posted December 28, 2020 Report Share Posted December 28, 2020 Yep i think we'll lose but i wouldn't write us off especially if we score first. Maybe start their second meltdown.I’d like to see us going at them from the off, I’d rather we did that than sit back. No one expects us to win (just like the cup game) but I hope we turn up and put in a good performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine that at a piss-taking £12.50 to watch a crap stream, most will simply use an illegal stream and save themselves some cash. Honestly, I wonder when clubs will waken the hell up and realise they simply can't treat fans (home and visiting) like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest Oaky, after a few teething problems (which was perhaps to be expected given how quickly these arrangements had to be out in place), I think the quality of the streams has been vastly improved this season.

Fair enough but TBH, the quality of the stream is really a side issue anyway. For the most part, hesgoal streams are usually good enough (when they are available). £12.50 is the real problem here.

It’s basically half the price you’d be paying to go to the game. Seems fair to me and I’d gladly pay it if I had too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This kind of pricing is stuck firmly in the 20th century but things have moved on. It's incredible how long it seems to take football clubs to embrace change.

You should give it another try mate. The commentary is much improved. I reckon they were given a rap across the knuckles for talking pish. Because you are right, they were irritating as f**k.

Desperately Seeking Susans Posted December 28, 2020 Report Share Posted December 28, 2020 Given Sevco's humiliation against us in the cup, they will certainly be up for it this time and it won't be easy at all. BUT, as the game progresses with the score remaining at 0-0, the pressure will build up reflecting a negative and nervous style of play from Sevco. If the score is drawing at 60 minutes then I think we will win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Non-season ticket holders and Rangers supporters can watch the match live on PPV at ppv.stmirren.com for just £12.50.

I suppose the only thing it doesn’t say categorically is if it’s the only way (legally) Rangers fans can see the game.

Right, so that was the point I was trying to make earlier. So international Rangers fans can pay Rangers to watch a game at our stadium. That has to be wrong.

No. You have to go through other team's broadcasts. You can usually access audio only through SMTV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
