King seems to have manoeuvred his way out of having to make offer for remaining shares. https://rangers.co.uk/news/headlines/dave-king-statement-7/

More than we can afford.

So just to be clear someone who pays less than I do for my season ticket gets better benefits than I do. Great plan. As others have said to try and pretend that this about closing gap on Tribute Act and and Victim FC is just bullshit. Sure it will play well to the I'm a better fan than you brigade.

BBC give McKenna Man of match award.

Christie on now.

McLean on now.

Great cross from Fraser for Phillips goal. Good finish as well. McKenna playing well again.

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DZT4_jSX0AAChPr?format=jpg Team for tonight. No striker!

International break should have given players time to recharge batteries and ground staff time to work on the pitch. Saints are not the team they were last season so should be looking to win this one comfortably. Up in Aberdeen over Easter weekend so no mad rush for transport. Hopefully warmer than last home game. In Pub Y Pub then visit in laws 2-0 McLean and McGinn

Replaced by sacked Swansea manager Paul Clement.

Piss poor first half but better second. Though McBurnie played well and should have had a goal. McKenna looked comfortable despite being asked to play on left of a 3. Robertson looks a class above the rest of the team. McDonald and McTominay showed some decent touches in midfield. Costa Rica looked a good side with some decent players.

Difference is Maynard, May, Arnason, Cosgrove, GMS etc are our players and we can chose which games we can and can't play them. Loan players the parent club has a say so not really our players.

Most experienced player in the squad so suppose it makes sense. Going to head along tomorrow but sure what to expect. We were decent under McLeish the first time around so hoping he can get same type of results again.

Iain Ferguson has to be up there.

Ten man Motherwell get a draw against Celtic.

Another poor performance but thankfully that was more than enough to beat a shite Dundee side. May looks a yard slower than player who was at St Johnstone and rarely gets into a position where he might score a goal. Nwakali runs about a lot but contributes little beyond that. Christie had another poor game. Shinnie played well and took chance that was presented to him by Dundee keeper well. Coldest I have been at Pittodrie in a long time.

According to SSN Southampton to appoint Mark Hughes.

Hopefully cup win gives the team the confidence boost it desperately needs. We need to start the game the way we finished last night. I would hope that we will go with players who will be available for the semi final as we need to give them as much game time as possible. In Train then beer Y Beer then train back to Capital. 1-0 Rooney

Better game than Saturday but that was not hard. 1 goal in 4 games (inside 90 minutes) is not good. We need to approach games like we did in extra time last night from the off. Work rate was good last night but we created very few clear cut chances. Great to see Rugby park with a big crowd. Great atmosphere. Special mention to the ref. He was awful again. However we are through so got to be happy with that.

Read elsewhere that UEFA fine EFL for showing the games but Sky pay the fines.

Against my better judgement going to head over to the replay tomorrow. Hoping the fact it's a cup tie means Killie have to open up which should give us space to get after them. Given up trying to guess what team and formation McInnes will put out. Hopefully no extra time as it means I will miss last train back to Edinburgh. In Train then time for a beer hopefully. Away end Sprint back to train station. 2-0 McGinn and Rooney.

Pellegrino sacked by Southampton.

Email sent to supporters clubs suggested there would be a cash gate.

That was brutal today. We looked totally devoid of ideas. Ball was only one to get pass marks. He was not spectacular but kept things simple and worked hard. Rest of the team were awful. We look like a team that cannot wait for the seasonto end. Woodman's distribution makes me miss clangers. Christie was like being a man down. How he managed to avoid being subbed is beyond me. Most worrying thing is McInnes seems to have no idea how to change things.

Excellent news. Means even more money when we flog him in the summer.
