“We got in at 1-0 – only 1-0 – that was probably the only positive of the first half…”
The ambitions at Rangers have seemingly drastically changed over the years.
Another Sunday saw another defeat to Brendan Rodgers’ Celtic and another chance of a trophy go begging as their great city rivals marched into the Scottish Cup final and left Kenny Miller and co licking their wounds.
But the striker fronted up and spoke with Rangers TV after the game in a bid to sum up the 2-0 thrashing that had just gone by.
“We never turned up,” Miller said.
“We allowed them too much time on the ball and allowed them to dictate the play and pretty do whatever they wanted in that first half.”
Now 37, Miller is in his third spell with the Ibrox club having also played for Celtic during the 2006/07 season.
The fans didn’t give him much sympathy though and you could barely make out what he was saying in his interviewing.
After the game, Miller faced a few questions from a reporter while standing on one of the Hampden touchlines.
As the footage below shows, quite a few Celtic supporters remained in the stands at this point – providing an amusing soundtrack to a disappointed Miller’s assessment of the game.

Miller and his Rangers colleagues have the opportunity to partly make up for their semi-final loss on Saturday, when Celtic travel to Ibrox with their unbeaten-all-season record still intact. Denying their great rivals an unbeaten record would go some of the way to making up for finishing so far behind them in their first season back in the Scottish top flight.
Wonder what James McClean made of this one.
