Cannot believe all you fans being taken in by the 8-1 Clyde result (18 replies to ONE post)
so Ally is now a world beater again and coach of the year, I have defended Ally in the past but fans need a sense of balance. it was a part time Clyde team managed by a manager WORSE than ours BF whose tactics were non existant.
Ally this year MUST do better in the cups (all of them) as well as winning league.
I see he is again asking wallace for more money we do not need more overpaid players give the young boys a decent chance.

1.) Just read on news now that's he's looking to offer former keeper lee robinson a 1 yr contract

2.) I think we all know it was only Clyde and this is the big season for us, but put it this way, if we had demolished teams like that over the past couple of seasons we maybe would be more optimistic now and maybe the result has provoked a sense of light relief for the fans. Onthe flip side I can't believe so many fans are treating it like a funeral.

U have lost the plot pal! Never seen any gers fans who were "taken in " by the clyde result, only mainly honest opinions!
You mate are the type of person who slaughters young men like Barry Ferguson, why? He is vastly experienced in playing the game at the highest level, now he, s learning his trade again the lowest level, and people like you think tactics would have changed that result? How can you possibly justify slagging the guy as a manager? Get a mirror m8
Tommy

4.) CLARKSON BUD What are you on about mate no one has been taken in by the clyde result. It was a great result and it was much needed for a confidence booster. But somehow you have managed to turn it into a bad thing??? And in regards to barry Ferguson give the guy a chance.

5.) @OP - I am willing to bet dollar to doughnuts that you would have been on here calling for Ally's head if it had been anything less. You and your ilk are actually an embarrassment to the support. All you are interested in is your own silly little "Ally Out" agenda. Who do you think would come in to follow him? Get a grip on yourself and try living in the real world. We won 8-1, we are on our way back up and all in the shadow of a club that is crumbling around us. But all you are interested in is "Ally Out" - PATHETIC.

Just wanted to compare our pre season activity with our "friends" across the city.
Ally has set about signing good international class players and getting them signed early.
our board, despite all the tim press reporting are well on their way to getting ALL the funds needed for a successful campaign, then SPFL here we come.
Across at "Commonwealth Game City" they bought an untried manager on the cheap (half of what Ally is getting in a lower league) Then despite promising their fans a major signing (ie snodgrass) NOTHING as usual as the biscuit tin cannot be opened.
If they get beaten by the wee Icelandic team they will be OUT OF EUROPE with no money coming in a loss of at least £30m with BT taking over the tv contract.
So in a years time will be a level playing field when we challenge them for Champions league football.

1.) We will not be on a level playing field with them for a long, long time. Forget about them for now.

2.) @op
I would take their manager on half of what ally gets and the style of football he wants to play instead of ally, s footy any day, this is their paul le guen moment but this guy has every chance of doing well until proven otherwise.

3.) Wow, you just managed to prise your head out of the sand. So, Celtic bring in a highly rated young manager and he will be ably assisted with one of the best footballers Scotland has ever produced and the problem you have is we are not paying him more than Ally!!! I think your 1st issue should be WHY are you paying Ally that amount of money, The next point is priceless, you have brought in a 36yr old and a 30yr old, I tell you what Ronny is actually thinking of resigning because he knows that he won't be able to compete with those kind of signings. Now, the new manager has come in, he is now looking at the current squad, deciding where and IF he wants to bring in new faces and when he decides then he will be backed with the millions that Celtic have as we have backed every manager. Now, please don't talk about Europe, you obviously have no clue what you are talking about and in fact you are making yourself look like a complete muppet with your comments about the wee Icelandic team. That wee Icelandic team are in Europe. So, in a years time you think that the squad you have will be challenging for the champions league, all the players a year older and a yard slower. To challenge you will need to spend 30million because that my friend is how far behind this current Rangers team is, You are still reliant on people like McCulloch to help you get through the season and dig you out of holes against teams like East Fife and yet in 12 months these players are gong to become Scotlands premier club. So CB, I would suggest another period of head in the sand would be the best remedy for you and come back in a decade when maybe, just maybe mind, things will have improved enough for you to make these ridiculous comments!!

Congratulations OP the award for the most deluded post of the month goes to you. But hey your posts always give us a laugh so welcome back.

5.) 27 Jun 2014 18:11:58
And he's back! A good old pint of Clarkston Bud for a Friday night.

6.) At the moment RFC could not challenge a polar bear to a snowball fight!

7.) Allymac yous won't sign anybody this season its called a money problem problem being yous don't have any

8.) 27 Jun 2014 23:53:16
@3, just a wee point m8, I remember people saying that sellik were 10 yrs behind Rangers when Blessed Martin came, They weren't, they wer only about 20million behind us and they spent it and won,
Now I know fine well how far the Gers have had to come back from, but understand this, If we get back, and IF someone invests, which I am certain is the plan, then rangers won't even be a season behind sellik, just like sellik weren't 10yr behind Rangers,
really you should understand that in Scotland all the old firm needs is money to spend to win the league,
Tommy

9.) Defo no the dug nbear. my point is we are going backwards instead of forwards. yes Boyd is a goal scorer and will probably score goals for us. but if and it's a big if we get promoted what then?and to answer your question. yes I have played and at quite a decent level, not that that makes any difference to how I feel about us signing 2 strikers that are basically past their best.

10.) 28 Jun 2014 13:40:20
agreed bigcol, the team is going backwards and will be the oldest by far in the top league IF we get promoted and IF we last the season without going under. But this site is going backwards as well with the Super Ally men and their delusional posts now in the majority again. It's the ED I feel sorry for as a non supporter of Ally the Manager he has to read all super optimistic tosh.
When I first started visiting this site Baybear was almost a loan voice of sanity and reason. He was joined by anonymous posters like myself but others like sweep 1 and Stewie, LW and LS until there was a majority seeing sense and the folly and lack of sustainability of the board and Ally's approach.
Now it seems optimistic lunacy with no foundation is taking over and joining Ally and this board with an ageing squad we cannot afford in a boring inept march to possible financial oblivion all because of an incompetent manager and an incompetent board.
Still at least we don't moan about it.

11.) 28 Jun 2014 14:52:49
@8- you are forgetting the fact that he inherited some good internationals: moravcik, macnamarra, petrov and a certain world class player in larsson. So add a few million onto your 20. If rangers gain promotion next season who will they have? Templeman(if he's not injured), black and Wallace(if he doesn't get sold this season). The rest are getting too old or haven't been tested in the prem.

12.) Op 7) Celtic have no money?!? Really?!? You do know this is 2014 and not 1994 yeah? Dare say there are a few clubs who would kill for Celtic's balance sheet! How much for Wanyama? Hooper? Ki? Potential for more coming in. Champions League cash. season tickets (you remember what a season ticket is don't you?) Like 1st post on here. lay off the glue!

13.) N6 bbab I don't get your post who could challenge a polar bear to a snowball fight

14.) N11 sc66 most have played in the scottish premier

15.) N12 mo89 well let's wait and see who yous bring in if yous bring in any players that cost as much as one million pound I will come on here and say I got it wrong will you

16.) N12 of course I know its 2014 maybe you should type in celtic already bankrupt then you can tell me about all this money you think celtic have eh godnight all

17.) 29 Jun 2014 09:06:40
@14- yes I know, but the first part of that sentence was 'most are too old'. Smith, daley, Boyd, miller, mculloch.no spring chickens are they?

18.) Scarecrow666 [ the rest are getting to old ]is what you said and I agree but let's not have a dispute about what you said and not what you think you said eh lol

19.) Tmnww- lol. Fair enough, I'm getting too old and my eyesights too poor for these small phones! My point about replacing an ageing squad is still valid though

20.) Scarecrow666 lol agree we need to get younsters involved but we will be laughing if we win premotion cause these faceless investers are going to invest 50 million lol more chance of me investing 50 million lol

10 May 2014 10:30:07
Some information I heard from an aquaintance at Rangers Pools who told me this interesting fact.
As we all know up to now ally was untouchable, as they needed him to help sell season tickets, but now apparently board are a) worried about poor sales and b) Ally's falling reputation among the fans.
Board are SERIOUSLY thinking of replacing Ally before start of season.
Any other bear heard these rumours?

1.) Hawd on CB that's an almost sensible post. Are you feeling alright? lbj d said he had heard something similar- I think

2.) @1 And that's probably where CB heard it or have he and lbj d got a source that they are willing to share.

{Ed039's Note - No, it is something doing the rounds quite consistently though)

3.) Come on guys stop trying to cheer me up!

4.) Just another rumour made up, like cribari signing a new deal, rangers 2 weeks away from admin, etc, etc

5.) Clarkston bud I was told that wallace is looking at the options I believe this to be true

6.) Jyf its not the same source I have crossed all my fingers and toes I know it won't cure the shareholder problem but it would make the club more attractive to new investment or acomplete buyout every commentator and reporter know macoists management and tactics are pure mince

7.) Bonbon its certainly not made up on my part

8.) So we have 2 sources saying the board thinking about getting ally out, are these sources privy to all boardroom talk? Surely one of them must know who blue pitch holdings are or margarita?

9.) I think the benefits to our team would be immense if it comes to pass.

21 Apr 2014 10:07:29
Now that season is nearly over I see Ally is hoping to get his transfer budget organised and bring in a couple of players. I am also hoping Ally and Mr Wallace and others on board are planning for SPFL return.
They must get Mr King and David Murray back on board, Mr King has promised £50m if Murray can match this we would be in a very strong position in the top league. We would be once again be able to attract the calibre of players that won 9 in a row. Another regular poster "RF" has already said we are on a par wages wise with EPL clubs so let's do this.
Here are a few possible signings I would love at Ibrox, John Terry/Frank Lampard both will be out of contract so it will only be their wages to meet, I know they are in their 30's but so was David Weir and look at him, my next two might surprise some gers fans, but sign Hooper from Norwich he will be in final year of his contract and will not cost much, also big Wannyamma again in final year of contract and the added bonus of pissing off the tims. With another 4 solid EPL calibre players we will surely win league at our first attempt and gain Champions League entry where we will make back all the money we have laid out. win win all round.

1.) Mate I can't figure out whether this is a joke or not Rangers can not afford even the wages of one single player you mentioned. Seriously man what planet do you live on? If Rangers are going to sign anyone it will be a free Transfer that is willing to play for less than 10k a week & that's an if we sign anyone. Celtic would kill to get Wanyama & Hooper back & a couple of Players like Terry & Lampard for Champions League but they couldn't afford any of them either. Seriously what do you expect from Rangers in the next 5 years do you think we will have players who have won the Champions League Previous in our side? I'd be happy if we had a young promising side with experience like Dundee Utd & Aberdeen but honestly we will be lucky to be challenging those 2 never mind Celtic in 5 years. I'd love to sign Kenny McLean & Stevie May but even they are out of our League that's the sad truth. I think Puyol, Ronaldinho & Sammy Etoo are out of contract soon though why don't we bring them in for the 1st division. We could have
Bell
Foster Puyol Terry Smith
Ronaldinho Lampard Wanyama Aird
Hooper Eto
Maybe with that team we can go through the Championship unbeaten still giving youth a chance (Aird) Christ can't wait for next season il get the open top bus booked now.

2.) Lmfao. This has got to be the most deluded post I have read yet. What about Gerrard, Iniesta, etc etc. like the way you took the misinformed ranting of another and claimed it as fact. Rangers do not have the wage budget of a top EPL club, they have the same total wage budget as one top EPL player. Lol

3.) @ op you have got to kidding we have no money dk never offered 50m either and also we aren't paying anywhere near epl wages the days of having players that won us 9 in a row are well and truly gone also yourself and r. f come up with some ludicrous post

4.) Sorry CB, but I'll leave any reply to NBear2 as I'm afraid I will not do it justice. All I will say is '' hope your enjoying being out for the holiday week-end. ''

5.) Op can I get some of what u either eat or drink because something must give u inspiration sadly not reality

6.) I'd like a pint of what you're on! Lampard and Terry's wages are around 12million per season combined. Both Wanyama and Hooper have years left on their contracts and would cost over 15 million in transfer fees. Their wages combined would be around 5 million per season.

7.) 21 Apr 2014 14:12:23
Why all the negativity and calling genuine posters names, Mr Murray has already proven in the past in attracting big name players to Ibrox.
Mr King has also stated getting back in CL quickly was his main goal, as that is where the money is.
As for Terry and Lampard they both stated they are massive Rangers fans and having already made their money will come for one last tilt at Europe, same as both Keanes did at Celtic, both took big pay cuts.
Next season in championship we can sign Boyd and Kenny Miller, sign a decent goalkeeper someone like Marshall of Cardiff who if they are relegated will be eager to offload him. and maybe 2 other defenders and keep our main money for SPFL, if we can get the promised £50m we would be able to outbid even Celtic for players as their board are still penny pinching and will only invest maximum of £10m a season. If Rangers even only invested say £20m in players, once we got into the champions league we would double that as BT are now putting more money in and clubs get bigger returns.
We spent big before, be honest, most of you fans would love the board to spend big again and play in CL every year instead of Celtic.

8.) Marshall week on week is being touted as one of the best goalkeepers in the league & have kept Cardiff in with a Chance but he's played with them in the Championship before why not again. I'm sure plenty teams will be looking to keep him in the EPL though. I don't think Terry has stated he's a Rangers fan quite the opposite actually.

9.) I am now totally convinced that you are a Celtic fan on the wind up.

10.) Clarkston bud and larky bear we need an ack ack gun to bring u down let's have a bit of sense to the situation we find ourself in we don't need a goalkeeper anyway but please boys feet on the ground

11.) Two possibilities. Either the Fonz (as tmwnn already suggested) is throwing everybody another wobbly or this is Matt Crozier in a new guise. In either case well done- it is a banter site after all.

12.) Aha, Stop it! I cannae take much more of this Bud. Aha, I'm literally greetin' with laughter here. Clarkston Bud, you are a comedy genius sir!

13.) Lbjd you clearly didn't read my post did you?

Larky Bear

14.) @ cb the both keanes wer still collecting over 30k a week and who promised 50m

15.) @bud

If you are a genuine poster then you have been heading too many balls, thankfully David Moyes is now available to sort things out on the park, he specialises in meaningless possession.

16.) Oh and for the record John Terry is a Celtic fan not Rangers.

17.) @16 not that I give a flying fork as this is a complete wind up but how do you know who John Terry supports?

17 Apr 2014 13:19:58
I cannot understand all the Ally haters on here, given what he has had to put up with the past 2 or more years he has achieved a great deal.
Two titles and back up the leagues in record time, and unlucky in cup competitions. Also every small team have raised their game as it is their chance to compete against the mighty Glasgow Rangers.
Even Dundee United raised their game to compete and in the end resorted to heavy handed tackles to put us out our stride as we were clearly the better team. Their first goal should not have stood as cifki was clearly offside and we should have had a penalty if it was not for a clearly one sided referee, who punished us but let the united players away with everything.
Ally has proven he is the manager to lead us back to the SPFL and then the champions league.
This is what lawwell is dreading as once Mr King invests his £50m we will be unstoppable at home and in europe.

1.) PMSL, must be the school holidays!

2.) Oh dear.

3.) Are you being serious? Ally couldn't get us past diddy teams to qualify for the Champions league or the Europa when we had a good squad. I can only asume that you are having a laugh, a bafoon or a Celtic fan in disguise trying to keep Ally in a job.

4.) Lmfao

5.) Sorry CB. That was just too funny. DU did not raise their game; they played poorly but Rangers raised THEIR game to compete (and to some extent, did). Ciftci WAS in an offside position but he very clearly and cleverly walked back and so did not commit an offside offence. Read the offside rule and you will understand the difference.

6.) 17 Apr 2014 17:07:29
Fantatic post OP. I'm guessing you must be worried that a Barca or Real Madrid might try and lure Ally away during the summer if that massive achievement of remaining undefeated in Scotland's renowned third tier of football is realised.

Even Sir Alex never went a season unbeaten and now Ally in only his third season in charge looks like he's going to make that happen. Is it maybe time to ask if Ally is already Scotland's greatest ever manager?

7.) Omg Please no more my sides are hurting too much with all the laughter. Barman 12 pints of what Clarston Bud is drinking please.

8.) Haha just waiting on he Easter bunny comin the mora!or is this the 1st April. got to be winde up

9.) Are you ally's agent.

10.) ED I hope you don't mind me posting this- just read a government health warning about an illegal beer called Clarkston Bud- apparently it can affect some people's mind. let's hope the damage is mild and temporary to all already affected- get well soon!

I think everyone can now see that replacing Ally was not the answer, any team he put out would not have lost so heavily to any team let alone Hibs.
He was the heart and soul of Rangers and loved this club, I believe he resigned as a matter of principal over all the redundancies. Any monies he received as well as any monies from shares he was given he deserves and earned.
He has now earned the club £1m as it was him who nurtured macleod and all the other Murray Park kids.
