St Joseph's v Rangers: Back to the grindstone
It's been a little over seven weeks since our last competitive game and still just under a year since we began last year's Europa League campaign but tonight in Gibraltar, we're already underway for the 2019/20 season.
A Tribute to the Retiring Kris Boyd
If you utter the words ‘Henrik Larsson' anywhere other than within a 20-metre radius of Ibrox you’ll hear football fans chattering about a legend. Kris Boyd has just announced his retirement and doesn’t command anywhere near as much respect but maybe he should and at Rangers, at least, he'll always be remembered as one of the best, a true legend.
Making marginal gains
The concept of marginal gains was made fashionable by the Sky cycling team and much of their recent success has been attributed to it. It had its roots in a revolution in British cycling about 20 years ago with a view to winning Olympic medals on the track. The theory was simple, to look at an event and break it down into every possible element that could influence the outcome, then improve them. Many of the improvements may seem insignificant, or arduous, but sum them together and by the end of the exercise you have a measurable and hopefully insurmountable advantage.

A changing of the guard?
Before Sunday's final Old Firm game of the season there was the usual manufactured controversy by the usual trolls in the media. Last week it was Chris Sutton's turn to take the lead by suggesting Rangers should give Celtic a guard of honour ahead of the match to show respect for their title win. Of course, given the rivalry between the clubs, this was never going to happen but it didn't stop several other journalists and pundits latching onto the 'debate' inferring Rangers lacked the class or humility to applaud the Celtic players onto the pitch. Even Alan Stubbs and Neil Lennon had their say with neither having the brains to remember they or their clubs didn't offer Rangers the same guard when they played Hibs and Celtic after winning leagues in previous seasons. As always, when it comes to Scottish football, the hypocrisy and mischief-making stood out more than any genuine point being offered.

Silencing the sheep - Rangers v Aberdeen
One of the best perks of being part of the Blue Order over the years was bringing out the huge 'Silence of the Sheep' banner every time we beat them at Ibrox. Sure, it was rather crude and small children may have been offended and cried, but Aberdeen's awful record over the years in Glasgow meant it was good sport and a well deserved message. Unfortunately, this season at least, it's us that have been silenced and the bragging rights are currently the prerogative of our chums in the North East.

Eliminating the errors: Rangers v Hearts
Have to admit, due to family commitments, I didn't start watching Sunday's Old Firm match until the second half. All things considered, it seems I got the better deal as, despite Morelos' sending off, Rangers outplayed Celtic for much of the second period and only another schoolboy error on our part cost us at least a deserved point.

Hibernian v Rangers: Will it be steak or mince?
I must admit, I'm still a bit unsure about Friday night football.
On the one hand, it's the end of the working week for most so there are few better ways to enjoy a Friday evening than watching your favourite team with a few of your preferred beverages. Win, and you can stride about the Saturday shopping like a man who has just won the lottery (aye, grab a couple of steaks, hen). But, lose, well, everyone's weekend is spoilt and there's not much joy to be had from watching Sky Sports coverage the following day desperate for the teams around you to drop points too (put they steaks back and no sweets for the bairns either).

Defoe an Early Betting Favourite to be Next Season’s Top Scorer?
Despite being in the twilight of his career, Jermain Defoe has definitely not lost his predatory instincts and keen eye for scoring. The 36-year-old joined Rangers on an 18-month loan from Bournemouth in January, which means he should be able to play a full season at Ibrox in the 2019-20 campaign. Defoe still has the ability to do some serious damage in this league, and it may be a shrewd move to back the English striker to finish as top scorer in his first full season in the Scottish Premiership.
Explaining the inexplicable: Hamilton Acas v Rangers
It's perhaps not quite one step forward, two steps back with Rangers at the moment but there's no doubt this Rangers team are as frustrating as any I've followed over the years. Quite clearly, we have a number of talented players and a manager who seems able to motivate them for bigger games but the same personnel are just as capable of regularly insipid performances and even the manager acknowledges he can't quite focus them for other matches? Why is this?
Re-refereeing Scottish football
Referees will often talk to the players before a match and state their expectations on how players should behave and highlight any behaviour or acts that won’t be tolerated in that match. To the viewing public, the style of the referee and how he will handle the game is usually clear within the first few minutes. Some refs may opt to let things flow and some will exact firmer control from the get go. In short, despite the rule book being the same, the interpretation will vary between officials and between matches and occasions.

Weeks don't get much bigger: Aberdeen v Rangers
After what seemed an incredibly long January and winter break from Scottish football, the games are coming thick and fast again for Rangers as we enter February. And, despite the end of the season still being a few months away, this week will be a defining one for the club. Not only do we travel (again) to the hallowed, erm, artificial turf of Rugby Park on Saturday in the next round of the Scottish Cup, we're on league duty tonight in Aberdeen. Lose both games and pride may be the only thing we can salvage from the rest of our campaign. Win both and finally, just finally we might gather enough momentum to challenge for silverware.
