Kairat arrive in Glasgow today after a disruptive trip across the globe. Unlike Celtic when they travel in the opposite direction next week, Kairat cannot keep to their usual body clock routine. It will be midnight in Almaty when tomorrow’s game kicks off – 2am by fulltime. For professional athletes, that’s a challenge.
There are seven Champions League playoff ties this week: five in the champions section, two non-champions. I watched Bodo/Glimt eliminate Lazio from the Europa League quarterfinal in April. Ange Postecoglou (eventually) got the better of them in the semifinal, but I expect them to make the cut against Sturm Graz.
Benfica are likely to progress against Fenerbahce, while I fancy Copenhagen against Basel. Red Star should have enough to overcome Cypriots Pafos. Ferencvaros are not the side they were five years ago, they could fall to Qarabag. As for Brugge? They have traded big this summer, spent €36m and sold €82m of talent. That’s a lot of change to pull together for their trip to Ibrox tonight. The Belgians should still edge it.
With what I am assuming is mischievous ‘paper talk going round, a friend suggested if we are looking for an older striker, it’s a pity Gerd Muller passed away a few years ago. Otherwise, he would have been ideal.

Is there a game on anywhere I could tune into?
A heavy defeat here could do more than just knock them out of the CL .
Won’t gloat too much until we’re through though .
I believe the deid team are gettting beat 3-0.
Hope Brugge score a few more.
3-0 now from twenty yards out.
Like I said the other day, I’m glad we’re playing Kairat
though I guess we could never play Bruges in the qualifiers
Games on prime if u have it…
Whit’s the coefficient darn Tam?

we dont do walking away,
20 minutes gone, they are going to miss the rest of the goals.
Greenpinata @ 6:32 pm,
Yes, exactly.
BSR @ 7:47 pm,
Very well put.
Yes Paul67 obviously has a downer on our Manager but he tries to be factually accurate and back up his opinions that way.
How the controversial nature of the site “adds” to the hits is interesting, you would hope the “wind ups” are genuinely felt rather than created for effect.
Yet for some disingenuous is the mildest way you can describe their noxious comments.
As GREENPINATA says, Brendan Rodgers is our best fit and loosing him because of the misguided egos on our Board would be tragic.
Hail Hail
rangers saving themselves for the st Mirren game
the halftime boos are going to be heard on the richter scale.
First time they’ve been down 3_0 so early in European action!!
A guess for half time comment
B9ooooooooooooooooooooooo
Ooooooooooo
Fckn booooooooooooo
Apart from that. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Laxalt @ 6:32 pm,
Yes, the idea we could get a Nakamura now is a stretch let alone a Larsson.
However, there is surely a mid-point between Declan Rice and Inamura.
Hail Hail
Now they are fckd we will be subject to the sectarian pish.
Subjected..
martin missed the goals, never seen them.
his hair got in his eyes.
boooooo effin booooo

Was hoping for a tighter game as they might sack Martin too soon.

HALF-TIME
published at 20:50 British Summer Time
20:50 BST
Rangers 0-3 Club Brugge
The BBC office in Glasgow is less than a mile from Ibrox.
There have been fans in red, white and blue heading past for a while now and we could hear the boos as the half-time whistle went.
They were just going back to the sports sportsound office
Club Boos 0 – Club Bruges 3
BTW Brugge is an anagram of Bugger.
Seems apt.
WHAT IS THE STARZ on 19TH AUGUST 2025 8:52 PM

Well played 👍
Hot Smoked,
Well,that will teach you to listen to TML.He’s only ever been right once.The time he said he was wrong about something.
This game/tie is unfortunately not over yet….if Sevco can get the ball to Antman and Danillio s bit quicker then Brugge could be in trouble.
At least there’s no Celtic fans hoping for an Ibrox victory…oh wait….there’s one!!
Chair boy….on behalf of all us real Celtic fans thanks for showing your support by buying a £40 a year illegal firestick.
Mon the Brugge….fekin bury these ratbags
Bruges may well have sold some of their better players but they are still a very well organised team with a bit of pace and power moving forward. Be surprised if they do not add to the score in the second half.
Celtic need to keep our eyes on the prize, which is primarily get into the Champions League proper
and hopefully use that windfall to strengthen the team for the CL league format.
I genuinely hope you don’t get arrested😛
I thought this would be a close tie, my goodness that wasn’t my best prediction 😂
Bruges may have given us a game plan for Ibrox. Sit in and break.
