There has been a definite shift around Rangers in recent weeks. It has not been flashy and it has not always been easy on the eye, but it is starting to feel effective. As the season progresses, the sense that things are finally moving in the right direction is growing with every fixture.
Results First and That Matters
Under Danny Rohl, the football might not always be pretty, but it is producing points, and that is what this club has been crying out for. Rangers remain unbeaten in the league during this run, the points per game has improved noticeably, and the gap on Celtic and Hearts has been trimmed.
This is not about style points right now. It is about momentum, belief, and staying in touch while the season takes shape. Rohl deserves credit for grinding out results at a time when confidence could easily have collapsed.
Confidence Is Creeping Back
You can see it in the players. Mikey Moore is the standout example. He looks sharper, braver on the ball, and far more assured in his decision-making. Not everyone has kicked on at the same pace, but the general standard has lifted.
Players who looked genuinely frightened earlier in the campaign are now putting in reasonable, professional performances. That may sound like faint praise, but it is a vital step. Confidence grows through competence, and competence grows through results.
January Is Getting Closer
Every match takes Rangers one step closer to the January transfer window, and that matters. In yesterday’s press conference, Rohl made it clear that conversations are already taking place behind the scenes. This is not just about talent, it is about character.
Rangers are sounding out potential targets early, assessing attitude, mentality, and whether they understand what it means to play for a club of this size. The message is clear, the club wants business done early, and they want the right personalities in the building.
For supporters, that is hugely encouraging. We have all seen what happens when recruitment is rushed or poorly aligned to the demands of Ibrox.
Pressure Shifting Above Us
Let us not ignore what is happening elsewhere. Hearts dropping points in five recent games has helped, and while Rangers must focus on collecting three points one match at a time, the wider picture matters.
Across the city, there is a very real wobble. The meltdown on the other side of Glasgow has reignited belief among the Rangers support. Suddenly, this does not look like a foregone conclusion. The title race is not over, it is alive again.
A Massive Weekend Ahead
The timing could not be more interesting. Rangers face the league leaders tomorrow, while Celtic take on an in-form Aberdeen side. This weekend has the potential to shape the direction of the title race in a big way.
Nothing will be decided in one round of fixtures, but momentum can swing quickly in this league. Rangers just need to keep doing their job, maintain the pressure, and see where it leads.
There is still work to do, standards to raise, and questions to answer, but for the first time in a while, the feeling around Ibrox is one of cautious optimism. And in this city, that can be a powerful thing.
