SPL Nightmare

After two good wins it is back to square one again. Can Rangers play in Europe rather than Scotland as the SPL seems to be too hard.

The poor SPL campaign continued with a draw against a fairly mediocre Motherwell team.

Rangers actually took the lead in this game through a header, what else, from Kris Boyd, only to lose it in the second half.

Both teams also had strong penalty claims turned down, incompetant refereeing rather than biased.

Novo started well for Rangers with a good run and shot that went just wide. Then wee Barry Ferguson had a shot blocked by Jamie Paterson andCharlie Adam's free-kick was saved by the Motherwell keeper.

Novo again showed good skill down the wing that lead to the corner that lead to Rangers taking the lead.

My man Buffel played it short to Ferguson before crossing to the back post where Boyd scored from a header, as ever. That was it for the first half, good play and a lead

Then came the second half and it was back the business as usual for this season. Foran had a header that went close before Motherwell equalised.

McDonald ran into the box and his crossed, it was cleared properly and it fell to Kerr on the edge of the box. He smashed a shot at goal that was deflected in.

Rangers did attempt a comeback when Novo's shot from a Boyd flick was saved by Meldrum.

Then both Sebofor Rangers and Motherwell's McDonald where both denied penalties.

Mr Perfect Thomas Buffel brought out a brilliant save from the Motherwell goal. But even he could to keep Rangers in the title hunt.
