Rangers 7 v 1 Dundee United - The Return of Barry Ferguson

Barry Ferguson made a welcome return to Rangers as they destroyed Dundee United 7-1 to reach the final of the league cup. Nacho Novo and Dado Prso combined to give Rangers a 2-0 half-time lead but Dundee United fought back at the start of the second half and looked like making Novo pay for missing a penalty when Jason Scotland scored. Jim McIntyre then struck both posts with a 30 yard effort but soon after Thomas Buffel scored his first goal for the club and Rangers were set for victory. Fernando Ricksen curled in a free-kick minutes after the return of Ferguson and he setup Nacho Novo for his second goal while fellow substitute Steven Thompson added two further goals to seal the comfortable victory.
Lineups:
Rangers: Wattereus; Ross, Kyrgiakos, Andrews, Ball; Buffel, Ricksen, Rae (Ferguson 70), Vignal; Prso (Thompson 75), Novo
Dundee United: Colgan; Mair (Dodds 75), McCracken, Ritchie, Archibald (Duff 46); Wilson, Kerr, McInnes (Scotland 46), Robson; McIntyre, Crawford

Nice to see big Marvin again, loved to see him on the pitch for us

I remember this game like it was yesterday! BF returning was the signing that I’ll never forget! I remember watching this game I remember who I was with.

Pat Nevin is absolutely devastated at this result 😜

[@henrywarnell7694]

There was lots of damning with faint praise.

[@shaunthesheep4398]

Remember watching this with my gran a got shivers when he was subbed on, loved Barry ever since a remember just simply because he had the same second name as me led me to support the famous.

I just noticed the first goal, the goalie tried to catch the ball by hand OUTSIDE HIS BOX, lol

Big Dado...What a player he was!

[@becksy539]

he was against pub sides in the spl

[@navnig]

@@becksy539 what about his time with Monaco? Pub sides over there too?? 😄

[@johnsmithsnr9818]

@@becksy539 only 6 teams in england the rest would struggle in spl but if rangers celic even aberdeen hibs hearts had the fantasy football money that England teams get well different story maybe we could have a league of high end foreign imports that make up the bulk of squads foreign owners foreign managers and mostly foreign players and yet it's still called english football 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣no bother pal

[@becksy539]

@@johnsmithsnr9818 Thats like saying if all the league 1 and 2 teams in england had the fantasy money the teams in the prem it would be a different story, what are you, a genius?, got nothing against the smaller clubs in the SPL, but when you have the old firm, and then the 3rd and 4th best teams with 10 x less to spend on wages its an equivalence to man city and man utd playing every season in league 1 in england, and thats highlighted in the fact nobody has won the SPL outwith the old firm since Dinosaurs were still around

Celtic man here and a genuinely set out to look back at this..you my friend are the problem with some people,ignorant comes to mind

[@boyddickson1751]

Sad but true....we will NEVER see his like again. The family connection....coming through the system.....deservedly the captain of a team with world class players......a GENUINE big game player (memo to Ryan Kent).....goalscorer....role-model (flicking v signs..gimme a break). Sadly a truly banal pundit, and not able to cut it managerially. Regardless, a TRUE legend. WATP

[@SonnyL]

Novo & Prso what a partnership. Need to find a partner like Novo for Jelavic.

[@Bing-a-ling]

Strangely enough, Barry Ferguson telling Alex Rae to give the armband to Fernando was the most captainiest thing he coulda done 😂

[@FCC1876]

Yeh Nevin totally gutted. THis was b4 he claimed to be Hibee - Aye Right ya wee Dullard

[@thecomedian1984]

I don't remember the BBC ever referring to Rangers as "The" Rangers. Anybody know why they did this?

[@conspiracycrackers996]

Neither have I tbh

[@williamrobertson7977]

“The Rangers” as like “the FA cup “ the original and best must be a Rangers fan , only a fan would say that .

[@AntizableGames]

repeated that against motherwell in 2018 😃

🇬🇧💙 Fernando

[@fraser_mr2009]

decent player for us

[@alisteringram2600]

Iain Mackenzie captains them to a cup and plays unreal during the season, gets a bad injury and struggles with depression been away from family etc, comes back and wipes the floor with the rest of the league

[@johnballantyne6853]

Pat Nevin being his usual biased Tarrier self ! ❤️🤍💙

[@markwatson4043]

Final score should have been about 15 - 3 to Rangers.

[@Adriaantje2008]

I don't get it. The commentators sound pretty neutral to me. Explain to me please... Are they for or against Rangers?

[@kingnutyy]

I like how Rangers don't have any numbers on their shirts - like in div3, the HUD scoreboard says "The Rangers" and the uploaders name is "weareTHErangers"... sigh.

[@billymcmonagle949]

Should have been 10 we gave them a hosing

Big Jock Newco fans watching Rangers videos? Fuck me, there's a surprise.

[@robdean704]

Looked good in Scotland, nothing special in England. Says it all

[@6steveo9]

PS this cup is under the SFL jurisdiction and they have stated they are not interested in stripping any trophies, regardless of the outcome of any tribunals. Unlucky.

[@billystevenson5509]

The commentatorin this match was utterly biased every goal rangers scored was lucky according to this second rate pundit the goalie was to slow natcho should never have got two goals bacause their defence was slow you could hear the difference when they scored oh it was brilliant it was magic so biased against rangers fact

[@rachelwillett1999]

rangers are chapinas

[@conspiracycrackers996]

Watp

[@tottles1979]

cis cup games has no names on strips if your going to comment get facts first as for the rangers that has always been our name av got numerous tickets with that on them

A result like this doesn't half leave a nasty taste in the mouth.... Its the utd supporters I feel for you spent good money attending this game and it was all a total con of a team they were facing. This was basically an EBT team assembled most of these players wouldn't have been near sevco if it wasn't for their underhand cheating.... 🤮 🤮 🤮
