    Couldn't find anywhere to watch it. Tied for 2nd worst rating on Sofascore (6.8--but then 3 others got 6.9s so...). Played 59 minutes before being subbed along with the striker who was the one player that got a lower rating.

    Rangers just brought in Aaron Ramsey. Gotta think that'll limit whatever pt our boy might have gotten moving forward. We'll see.

    mmm......nah.....Sands is more defensive, Ramsey more attack oriented. In any case, Ramsey will be quickly banged up and spending most of his time on massage table.

    Wasn't aware what you meant by Thunderdome but just checked it and it's the 17-3-3 team vs the 17-5-1 team in Scotland. If I were going into the dome v. CCV, I'd probably stop going. See you there. In this thread, I mean.

    Won't spoil it for you but to me they could use Sands in the few minutes I saw so far (I came in late at 41' mark or so). Yeah......

    Sands starts vs Annan Athletic, looks like the RCB. They're already up 1-0. Cup match.

    Sands has looked for some crisp line-breaking passes and hit them all. Rangers racking up the failed opportunities, including Ramsey getting more time on the ball in the box than he would have had in a season at Juventus, only to put it over.

    And I jinxed Sands, who just passed out of bounds.

    Rangers go up 2-0, it's pouring rain, and this isn't likely to get any better for Annan.

    Sands comes on in the 75th minute for Jack. They lead 3-0; Jack was on a yellow, which may have driven the decision.

    Very late - Sands is first to a bouncing ball, and draws yellow as he gets spiked by a high foot. They finish off the 3-0 win, seems like it was a flattering scoreline, but nice minutes for Sands to get.

    Sands just jumped the passing lane in the middle of the field, intercepted, and sprung a counter that put Rangers up 3-0 against Dundee late in the Scottish Cup. MLS assist for him on that one.

    Well, Sands is starting before the international break. They try to keep pace with Celtic against last place Dundee. Looks like he’s the right side of a dual 6 in a 4-2-3-1.

    Dundee scores in about the sixth minute, and these are points they probably can’t afford to drop.

    Fans throwing tons of tennis balls on the pitch as a protest of something or other. At least the fans seemed to be deliberately not endangering players.

    Sands with a skillful turn in the midfield that effectively breaks the lines in itself, but the attack fizzles out soon after.

    Sands and Lundstram have fluidly been switching between covering the right and the left sides. Lots of Rangers spending a little too long in the ball, including Sands.
