Rangers

[Ludlow Richard]

A lot in the media about Rangers' "miraculous" or "legendary" journey from Scottish Division 3  to a European final in 10 years. But marching their way up the terribly weak Scottish Leagues must have been a complete doddle compared to Fulham's journey from 23rd in the English 4th tier (91st in the English League structure on 3 Feb 1996 and staring the Conference in the face) to the Premier League and then to the Europa League final in 2010. But of course no-one ever mentions Fulham in media discussions of this sort. We are not a media darling like Rangers.

Horrible bunch who support them as well,red hand of Ulster and all that crap whistle and flute marches....Hope Frankfurt put 6 past them.

Both the BBC & Sky have been banging on about them all day.

Showing my age, but what a waste of time drinking all afternoon when in such a beautiful part of the world.

Minor miracle that they are not behind in this game. They have some good players. Kent and Bassey would be good additions to our squad. Jealous watching it. I'd love to see Fulham back in a Euro final.

This Rangers squad wouldn't have finished in one of the automatic promotion spots in the Championship this season. And somehow they might just win the Europa League...

Rangers 1-0 up

[Wingnut]

1-1. The amount of mistakes in the game is unreal. Scrappy as hell in the middle of the park. Like watching an u10s game at times.

They did put 6 past Dortmund.

They did put 6 past Dortmund.

They also finished second in their league to a side that got dumped out of Europe by an out of season Norwegian side that hadn't played a competitive match in over two months!

In all seriousness, if you were going to make a best 11 out of the Fulham and Rangers sides from this season, you'd probably pick 5 or 6 Fulham players before even considering one from Rangers.

I agree about Bassey, he has looked very assured

Is Steven Davis ever going to stop playing?

Probably would do if that strike went in at the end.

What a career the bloke has had. Great for everyone except us!
His 3rd appearence for Villa was against us. He must have been about 12. Our line-up was like something out of the history books: EVDS, Bocca, Voltz, Knight, Pearce, Diop, Steed, Boa, Pembridge, CJensen, Cole.

True, just took a cracking penalty.

I'd still take Aaron Ramsey, just saying..

For 400K a week? Wouldn't have him near us. Bassey was the best player on that pitch.

[I Ronic]

I think the Europa is one of the best knock out competitions going.  Our journey through to the final was amazing. How Roy managed the squad though all those long journeys and still produced a team that held it's own in the Prem was and is incredible.

There's zero chance he'll be on anywhere near that next season. If his wages were reasonable I would take him

That's Sunday morning football for you.

I would never knock any club outside of the BIG clubs that make it to a European final. Many bigger clubs than us and Rangers have failed to achieve that even when given a helping hand by uefa in allowing them to enter the competition halfway through. Hard luck Rangers but still a great achievement just goes to show what an unbelievable achievement it was for us.
