In some other parts of the world they swear patience is a virtue. But in Scottish football – and especially here in Glasgow – it’s more like a virtual stranger.
With the odd swear word thrown in for good measure. So now Rangers have got two games under their belt the penny will be beginning to drop for Michael Beale’s new boys.
I had a wee smile to myself the other night when they were beating Servette 2-0 in the first half of the Champions League qualifier and Cyriel Dessers took a ball into his feet with his back to goal, 10 yards or so over the half way line.
The big man probably thought he was doing the smart thing. He wall passed it straight back where it had come from towards the centre of the Rangers defence, keeping possession safe and allowing the team to build out again from the back.
