[Albion] Rangers v Brighton

[Surf's Up]

Doubt we are playing Rangers for the challenge it presents. It'll be more about fitness than anything else and their second string will be good enough for that.

Might as well have stayed at home and played Hassocks at The Beacon then!!

What do you mean ? Granted it’s a lazy story mainly containing copied and pasted tweets but not gobbledygook

Gobbledygook because it didn't open properly.

I see the Scottish press are claiming Brighton fans are "outraged" at the cost of Rangers TV (£7.49) to watch the match. I'm not outraged, but it's obviously a stupid/greedy price to charge for a pre-season friendly against a low calibre team like The Huns. I'd only consider it if we had just signed Lionel Messi and it was his first game.

That is a very defensive first eleven, I'm not sure even Potter would name three goalkeepers to start a match.

Is Locadia unavailable due to overall ‘waste of spaceness’ or another reason?
Still a few to shift out looking down that list to make space for (hopefully) a few new signings in a 25 man squad Locadia obviously, plus Tau, Duffy, and likely a few loans (or even perms) in Van Hecke, Richards, Connolly, maybe Zeqiri.

Locadia is still on holiday as his loan only finished 3 weeks ago.

Trossard back on Saturday but I assume he'll be doing his day 1 medical checks at Lancing.

Sanchez and Caicedo back next week.

I thought it was a 3pm kick off, would have stayed up if it was.
Will check result in the morning, no match thread as yet.

Locadia has been on holiday, ever since he came to the Albion

It’ll be really interesting to see who gets the minutes out of the three centre back boys.

Leo Skiri Østigård
Or
Hayden Roberts
Or
Jan Paul van Hecke

Might be an indicator of which defender is favourite to stay with the squad or even which one is being put in the shop window for a potential loan or sale.

Personally, I’d love to see a back 3 of

Shane Duffy trending on Twitter…. Rangers fans planning a heroes welcome for him

 

[Fiskmås]

I for one will absolutely definitely probably not pay to watch the game tonight.

Does anyone know it there usually are ugly streams to be found for friendlies hiding behind paywalls?

Asking for a friend.

A very hot day in Glasgow as we anticipate a great game against my favourite two clubs. Hope the Albion really turn it on and win of course but Rangers will be a very very stern test.

About to buy the £7.99 match ticket.

Canne wait.

Cricfree.sc will probably have Rangers TV somewhere. It's quite a good and not too biased channel by contrast with some club channels.

Possibly. So that's 26 players to share the 90 minutes around. Everyone should get a game.

Love that little old Brighton costs £7.99 and Real Madrid costs £9.99. Might tell you all you need to know about the Rangers team today.

They're running out 80% first teamers!

Strolling around for 45 minutes, saving themselves for Real Madrid, I guess.
