Cracking point Beanie.
When there is a gulf in class, the lesser teams just can't mix it with the big boys and they have to employ tactics accordingly in order to achieve a result. That's exactly what the smaller clubs have done against the big two and it's exactly what Rangers have done in Europe this season.
I might have missheard it last night but I thought I heard the comentator say that Ranges had won 2 of the 13 games in Europe this season. Whilst you've got to applaud them for what they've achieved, you could well argue that if they had scored a late equaliser and gone on to win on Penalties they wouldn't be the most worthy of champions with only 2 wins in the competition.
Credit to Walter Smith for what he's done. It's a pity the fans let him down but we shouldn't really be surprised as we know what a bad reputation british fans have when they travel outside of their own country.
