QUOTE OF THE DAY

‘Hibs went right off the Boyle. At this rate Jack Ross might not see the cup final. My money is on Scott Brown replacing him’ couldn’t even sell a 10k allocation for a semi-final whereas Celtic sold 35k tickets and could’ve sold 10k more if given them. Get real.”

Derek Adese, Dundee, said: “I’m getting a distinct feeling that because a Rangers player has come out and been absolutely honest about the state of play, it means the club is rank rotten.

“He said exactly what us supporters are thinking, yet gets slaughtered for it. Keep the truth coming mate. Any true blue will be right behind you.”

Stuart McLeod emailed: “The Rangers fans have every right to speak up when players don’t show any desire or admit defeat when the game’s only reached the halfway stage. Our previous manager proved in a Champions League final what you can achieve with some desire from what looks a hopeless position.”

Scott Cassidy, Bridgeton, said: “I’m normally a very positive and optimistic Rangers fan. The last week or so is the lowest I’ve felt since the dark, dark days of a decade ago. Gerrard was the one for our club and he’s now bolted and unlike some of you fellow fans I’m unsure how GVB is going to do with lack of funds and with some underperforming stars.”

Eddie Easson, Fife, said: “One trophy after so-called total dominance last season. Knocked out of the first trophy this season by an average Hibs. Mountains of debt that doesn’t look like subsiding. Players who look like they don’t want to be there. A captain who hid after a defeat after his big statements the week before. Yes, everything is rosy in the bluebell garden.”

Joe Graham, Garrowhill, said: “Fair play to Scott Brown for distancing himself from FIFA’S Fair Play Award by saying give it to a real hero. It was a lovely gesture he showed to Glen Kamara recently but to receive a fair play award for it is laughable.

“It’s Scott Brown we’re talking about.”
