Rangers 1-0 Dundee Utd

There are gaps for United to attack despite Rangers continually looking dangerous.

While there's still only one in this...

Rangers hierarchy in firing line

After showing their disapproval of the players' efforts with a first-half banner in the Copland Road stand, it's now the turn of the incumbents of the Sandy Jardine to have their say, and they have the Rangers blazers in their sights...

'Stewart, Thelwell pack your bags and go before we pack them for you.'

May have Patrick and Kevin choking on their half-time pies.

HT: Rangers 1-0 Dundee Utd

Rangers have attempted five shots on target in this match, higher than their season average of four in the Premiership.

It's only half-time, too.

What's that strange sound?

There's an unfamiliar noise around Ibrox upon the half-time whistle. Ah, yes, applause.

Noticeable by its absence for the majority of Russell Martin's short-lived, doomed tenure.

Interim boss Steven Smith will be quietly satisfied with his side's work thus far.

A cracking goal, some nice, enterprising football; lots for the Dundee United goalkeeper and defence to worry about.

Much, much better from Rangers.

Should be more than 1-0, that will be their only concern.

Goodwin unimpressed

Arms folded, face like thunder, Dundee United manager Jim Goodwin prowls his technical area menacingly.

I would not like to be a United player in the dressing room for the half-time chit-chat.

I don't think their manager is particularly impressed with the way they've gone about their business, especially when they've had possession in dangerous areas.

Rangers fans on their feet

For the first time in the Premiership this season, it seems the Rangers supporters are really enjoying watching their team.

It's wave after blue wave of attack; there's already been a stunning goal to cheer; and but for Yevhen Kucherenko, Thelo Aasgaard would have had a double inside half an hour.

Ivan Dolcek gets in far too easily again, but instead of going for goal he tries to lift the ball over James Tavernier before having a go.

It all breaks down.

Completely different energy

For the first time since the very early European qualifiers, this place is absolutely bouncing.

Decibel levels not heard since Panathinaikos and Viktoria Plzen were being hit for two and three respectively.

Stunning

Goodness me, what a goal that is.

Absolute top quality from Thelo Aasgaard. Cuts inside not one but two players and then rifles an absolute rocket into the top corner of the flailing Yevhen Kucherenko's goal.

Wow. Where has that been from him - and his side - so far this season?
