Great start to the game by Rangers and totally in control for say the 1st 20mins.
The middle of the game was a total non event.
We scored and then hung onto the end and that was expected as Swansea always have lots of possession.
Bringing Frey on to see out a game was laughable.
The luxury of where we are at the moment is that we have a little bit of strength in depth and with that in mind and after a game on Friday Marti made some changes to keep things fresh and maybe look forward to the games ahead v Wednesday and Plymouth and being able to do that will maybe help us get those 2 wins maybe to see us safe.
The game will be forgotten in days but the 3 points will always be there on show and that is all that counts.
Marti got I right today and well done to the boys. MOM today Clark-Salter.
Come on you R’s

He can talk about missed chances, but Smyth might have scored early, Chair should have done; Begovic made 2 big saves at end of 1st half and 2 comfortable ones in 2nd. Hitting the woodwork counts as a Missed Attempt.

Interested to know what Chair and the Swansea player were discussing after we scored.
I believe they were comparing AJ Ayer's use of 'bliks' with Wittgenstein's 'sprachspiel' theory of language. Probably.
Edit - knew something was bothering me about this bit. It was RM Hare not AJ Ayer. 'Well don't I feel like the fcukin' asshole...' (Jack Nicholson). Broke my own golden rule - never do philosophy jokes sober.

I trust that Chair took Ayer's side - always thought Wittgenstein's later work lacked rigour.

Chair isn't a noted logical positivist but, on this occasion, he felt that Wittgenstein's arguments lapsed into relativism, negating the entire concept of objective meaning.

Decision to bring Frey on was more defensive IMOH. Getting another big body there for opposing set pieces .
Had Armstrong put in a earlier, Frey was on his own from 7 yards out.
It's a little thing in the game overall but Fox put Frey into space on the left wing with one defender between him and Armstrong in the middle, who had the freedom of South Wales between him and the keeper. Frey tries the outside of the right boot. Frey hits said defender.
Now it's entirely possible that Sincs muffs it if it ever gets to him but we'll never know. What grippeth my shìtteth is seeing a professional footballer trying a bad pass with his strong foot rather than an easy pass with his weaker foot. Those outside of the boot passes look great if you're Ronaldinho or Taraabt and they come off. When they don't you look glaringly one-footed.
