What you can't see is our goal is off the left hand side of the screen.

If you stick to the plan then nobody gives the ball away. This is a players problem.

The problem is they don't have enough of the ball. Apparently. He's thrown at least 2 of his players under the bus. The important thing is it's not his fault or his tactics.

Up to 7th after that. I won't lie. I feel asleep the 2nd half. Which is a shame as Rangers picked up 3 points for their performance.

Joe Rothwell has about 50% turtle DNA enabling him to breathe out of his ass.

What Rangers fans probably haven't had a chance to appreciate yet is Martin's ability to ruthlessly see out a 1-0 defeat. So there's a chance to tick that box today.

And God.

Obviously nowhere near the fittest man in Europe (tm) that is Nathan Jones.

Have to admire the burst of pace that took Martin down the tunnel away from them though. That's what a serious fitness regime gets you.

As the Rangers fans noted "Joe Slothwell"

St Mirren really need a second here before the whistle. Half time team talks are a Martin specialty where he has the chance to completely change the shape of the game.

Reading the Rangers forum they're all really calm about how this is just part of changing the culture at the club and part of a bigger process that's going to deliver the football they crave to Ibrox.

And normally I'd agree. But the park doesn't allow me to watch another long term process unravel before my eyes.

Proper Russell Martin goal that. 1 pass and straight through on goal.

WWPD what would Pep do? Obviously Pep never had a player to handle the front sweeper pie hero role like Rothwell but it's almost like watching Man City at times.

One thing that's come out of his new job is I'm watching a lot more Scottish football than I used to. Which I'm not sure is a good or a bad thing.

That is Champions League level trolling.

They'd be waking up in the middle of the night giggling for weeks after that.

Or to put it another way - the players that the last fuck-knows-how-many managers have brought in.

The important thing here is that they've all scored goals at this level at some point in the increasingly distant past. Get Adam Armstrong a penalty and he's going to put it away. If Archer goal hangs enough he's bound to tuck away a couple. As for BBD - I think we can all see the kind of free scoring footballer that's lurking beneath the surface. Throw in a newbie from the Bundesliga 2 and it's about as potent a strikeforce as you could want at this level if you're trying to build towards turning Saints into a European powerhouse. If we can do a couple of stats searches and choose some youngsters with high stats that don't cost much I reckon this could be the save game to end all save games.

Our proven Championship strikeforce continues to fail to find the back of the net.

Downes natural urge to stop and pass back is utterly infuriating

Johansson should be retroactively sent off for that.

Why take Charles off when Downes is a liability.
