We asked you Rangers fans for your views on the penalty shoot-out loss to Celtic in the Scottish Cup quarter-finals. Here’s a taste of what you had to say…
Brian: It saddens me to say but Danny Rohl doesn’t just cut it at this level – he might be a good manager at Championship level but he’s simply not good enough to be a Rangers manger. The two games against Celtic have exposed his flaws, in that he is not tactically ruthless enough and he lacks the guile to outwit a more seasoned opposition manager like Martin O’Neill. Rangers came up against a poor Celtic team and proved that they are just not good enough, just like their manager.

Bob: Pathetic – 24 shots to one – and we lose on penalties. Never seen such a poor Celtic performance but if you don’t have players capable of finishing, you lose. Our attack is incompetent and toothless. No way to win silverware.
Ronnie: Another heartbreak for Rangers fans. But I’m not going after the players, they gave 100%. Nobody hid. We dominated the game but just lacked composure in the box and with the vital pass. Rohl still has my support. It’s disappointing but let’s see where we are on the final day before we start screaming to sack the manager.
Sue: In our heart of hearts we knew how this would end – in defeat. Rohl is a decent man and a decent manager but he’s simply not good enough to get this Rangers team over the line, as he has proven. Two wasted opportunities to secure victories against a poor Celtic outfit. A season that started in disaster under Russell Martin will end in soul searching and recriminations with what could have been under Rohl – but it was all pie in the sky.
Will: A poor game against a weak Celtic team. There were too many passengers in the team today. No creativity and nobody taking control of the ball.

It was as though they were overawed, misplacing passes and rushing things. Not any quality on the park, too many mercenaries and not enough homegrown players in the team.
Rohl came in needing snookers to win the league but from what I’ve seen the last few weeks, I’m afraid the season’s over.
