""We looked at the seven games, which started with Hibs [on Monday] until the cup game [against Annan on 16 January] and we spoke about how we need a lot of points," he said. "After the Hearts game, of course, the feeling is disappointment. "But we have to go forward again. It's about us creating a new momentum, a new run.""
""I think when you look back, I know football is not always easy, but if I asked you eight weeks ago if it is possible to have, at the end of December, a game where we can play again for maybe the title race? Then you would say, I'm not sure. "It hurts so much at the moment that we had this small setback, but it's for us to start winning games again.""
Rangers suffered a 2-1 defeat at Tynecastle, their first league loss in nine matches, leaving them 12 points behind the Premiership leaders with a game in hand. The team has seven upcoming fixtures, including a cup tie against Annan, and needs to collect many points to remain in contention. The squad aims to create a new run of form and recover confidence after low emotions at Tynecastle. Players will have Christmas Day off, and training intensity has increased with four sessions in a week for the first time since late October. Focus now turns to the next league match against Motherwell.
