    Despite 101 positives from the game today, my biggest concern is that the defeat will act as a demoralising factor for the team going forward. Imagine how they feel now and how they'll feel at training tomorrow. Can they pick themselves up?

    I honestly think that if we'd won today, it would have been the start of some good results (notwithstanding that we have City and Chelsea on the horizon). But now i'm not so sure.

    Can someone reassure me?

    They can and they will; they know they can compete with top teams now. The win against Villa shall be the start of said good run.

    I guess that's what they are paid to do. They will be as gutted as most of us are just at the moment!

    It is.

    Today was the worst possible outcome - a good performance but no points.

    Redknapp gets a stay of execution, whilst we are further adrift.

    Slightly harsh! I haven't seen heart like we saw today in a Rangers team for a long, long time. Perhaps we should stop the pessimism now and just start believing. We might just feel better for it!

    This! I feel that we have turned the corner now. We competed well against one of the best sides in the country and were unlucky not to get all 3 points. U Rrrrrrrrrs!

    I like positive comment. Whether we had won or not, the team are fully aware they must continue to hit the ground running.
    As Bomber Harris would say .......Press on regardless.

    I hope you are right. I was so sure we were going to get something from today's game that I almost bet on it. Would have been the second footballing bet of my life! Slightly more positive this morning. Or is it less gutted?!

    I'm still totally gutted mate!
    We'd barely finished celebrating that 2nd equaliser when it was all taken away!

    Feel like I did during that Wigan match two years ago.

    After OBZ got sent off for high kick from a throw in and we clawed ourselves back into the game...and MBia sent Remy through to score.....and then gave away a stupid stupid series of free kicks just outside the pen area for Moloney to score in injury time. (the team accepted relegation from that moment)
    I feel just like that gutted
