So can anyone shed any light on the "massive news" coming out of ibrox today biggest news in decades according to the DR.
1.) 23 Aug 2017 12:30:43
seen nothing of the sorts on DR
seen a fake backpage on another aite though
2.) 23 Aug 2017 12:35:40
Looks like a windup.
3.) 23 Aug 2017 13:26:22
Not seen the dr but some rumours of a new owner, take it with a pinch of salt though supposedly wants king out usual p1sh rumours
4.) 23 Aug 2017 13:55:22
Biggest news in decades, if its like any other big news out of ibrox it can't be good. Hope it is good.
5.) 23 Aug 2017 14:12:28
its a fake story
6.) 23 Aug 2017 14:20:26
Fake newn never ever belive anything som1 tells you what ever daily rec sun etc say only ever belive it when rangers fc give statement about anything or a player is on parade wearing scarf above head etc
7.) 23 Aug 2017 21:57:00
Seen this on another site but not the Daily record, think it's just a wind up mate
8.) 23 Aug 2017 22:17:22
4/1 second fav to sign nani
9.) 24 Aug 2017 11:17:03
Why anyone even looks at the DR leaves me bewildered. Why are Rangers fans funding this filth?
10.) 24 Aug 2017 13:11:25
Why would anyone read a paper when you only need to google rangers and get all the news from reliable sources like the club website, unless its confirmed take it as a rumour. So might as well just come on here the best rangers rumours page.

Why is it that when someone on here claim Moyes is a rangers fan suddenly everyone thinks he’d be a great appointment for us he’s been managing for near 20 years and won nothing hate to keep banging on about big Eck but even he won a cup in England with i p**h Birmingham side knows Rangers and Scottish football inside out he should be miles ahead of Moyes in the running for the job and I think he should have MURTY as his number 2 show him the ropes for a couple seasons and the let him take over cause I believe Murty deserves a chance at some point just maybe not quite ready yet.
1.) 04 Nov 2017 12:32:03
How many trophies had Rodgers won and what was his win ratio before he went to the bin shed?
2.) 04 Nov 2017 13:00:10
If it was the Everton era Moyes then he would be a good choice but I do t think he has ever recovered from Man U.
3.) 04 Nov 2017 13:34:07
didnt big Eck rule himself out last time it was up for begs
4.) 04 Nov 2017 13:39:06
I would happily take Moyes. He might have won nothing but in England it's all about the league and resting players in cup competitions. Most years he had Everton in higher positions that most expected.
Saying that, I stuck a tenner on Graeme Murty as next manager myself this morning. 12/ 1 but that will likely be cut after a win for us today.
5.) 04 Nov 2017 13:40:51
moyes failed at man utd as well as in spain and he also got sunderland relegated
he hasn’t managed for some time now and his knowledge of SPL will be very limited at best
why anyone thinks he should be considered baffles me
any football everton did play under him tended to be long balls up to the likes of fellainin and for me was dire
just my opinion bears
6.) 04 Nov 2017 13:49:45
I don't get why so many people slate big eck. I. ll tell you one thing if big eck came back to rangers we would start to win trophies again. of that I'm certain. but it won't be him it will be mcinnes
7.) 04 Nov 2017 13:52:51
Rodgers nearly won the EPL with Liverpool and by the way has been in management half the time Moyes has but he doesn’t concern me, I want a manager with winning credentials not someone that’s won nothing and failed miserably at his last 3 clubs
8.) 04 Nov 2017 14:22:50
Nearly? Hahaha
9.) 05 Nov 2017 10:02:14
Highland Bear is a man who speaks a lot of sense. Eck won 7 or 8 trophies first time without anywhere near the money Dick got. He has won a cup in England and did really well with Scotland with a poor squad. And he is not working at the moment. Eck and the likes of Murty/ Rae/ Ferguson.
And he is still comparatively young and used to giving the dark side a doing on quite a few occasions. How people don't think all that stacks up is very difficult for me to comprehend. With the time rattling on I suspect that Eck will not get the job and whoever does get it will get my support. I just think we have missed the boat to bring stability to the club when it is crying out for it in favour of another hopeful appointment
10.) 05 Nov 2017 11:21:45
Nearly? You mean he didn’t
29 Oct 2017 16:53:12
Bears I know some will slaughter me for this but I think it’s time for big eck he will steady the ship get us defending well and build from the back mite not be the best brand of football but I think it’s our best chance to close the gap on celtic for the time being Michel Preud'hommes sounds goo but he would just be an other experiment and we can’t afford that right now big Eck is the man if not give Murty his chance and see how he goes but I definitely don’t fancy going down the foreign route again
1.) 29 Oct 2017 18:03:45
Oh, please. All the best to big eck, but he is yesterday's man as far as managing us goes. I would go with Murty but if not, he should definitely be working with the 1st team in some capacity. You'd need to be blind to not see the positive effect he has on individual players, and the team unit as a whole
2.) 30 Oct 2017 09:12:22
Big Ecks not the worse shout but i think his time has been mate. i'm not keen on another foreign gamble either.
23 Aug 2017 17:23:55
Bottom line is pedro is not good enough he's brought in a load of rubbish aside from Dorrins, Jack and Alves I can't see any of his signing doing anything we could have signed better players from within the SPL we look like we're going to miss out on Jamie Walker a boyhood fan of our club cause he's spent money so poorly I hope I'm wrong about Pedro but I really think he's out of his depth
1.) 23 Aug 2017 17:38:32
Candeias doesn't look bad at all to me and neither does Cardoso at the back. Morelos looks like he will score goals too. Fans need to remember when teams come to ibrox its 11 players behind the ball for 90 mins and its going to be difficult to break down. I'll accept that Herrera and Pena haven't hit the ground running but so far I think they still have a chance to prove themselves and come good. Sometimes Pedros interviews are full of garbage but I think he needs atleast til Christmas to be judged. Playing Miller in the starting 11 is hampering us in my opinion. Should be used as a sub.
2.) 23 Aug 2017 18:03:15
GM90,
I agree with most of what you have said other than the Christmas part, like the new players, the new manager needs time, Pedro, Pena and Herrera will do well, mark my wordsðŸ™ðŸ‘ðŸ†
I do believe we could strengthen our fullbacks and would love to see Herrera and Morales get a good run together!
3.) 23 Aug 2017 18:27:09
GM90 don't you think teams have 11 men behind the ball at the piggery? I imagine they do and they seldom struggle to break these teams down so why can't we? Are the players not good enough? Are the tactics not good enough? Either way its the managers fault as is the fact he let's Miller play where ever he wants. Kenny Miller scores goals when he's in the middle so play him there or don't play him. Surely it should not be a question of time, give him till Christmas, give him the season etc, but a question of how well we are doing and how far off the pace we are, we have 3 league games before the OF game all 3 of which we should win but if we don't the leagues gone before playing them once. I've watched pedro play them twice and seen NOTHING that makes me think he can beat them so why are we giving him time?
4.) 23 Aug 2017 18:42:24
11 men behind the ball that just an excuse after all it not as if we never lose at ibrox with the so called 11 players behind the ball teams we have and when thses teams do come forward and don't score i'm sure there no 11 men behind a ball them but we still ca t seem to score
5.) 23 Aug 2017 19:51:36
I would give Herrera and morelos a go up front for the next few games. Can't say Herrera has looked too good so far, but like morelos has been isolated at times
No use signing him and not giving him a proper chance.
6.) 23 Aug 2017 21:51:56
Aye hopefully all the new guys settle and perform this year and we can concentrate our transfer funds on a couple of players. Which is what will happen eventually rather than 11 new players each year.
Any team will struggle bringing in so many new faces, we need a team to bond and work as a unit, to the point passes can be played to where they know their team mates will be heading :-)
23 Aug 2017 11:59:30
Pedro has spent north of £10m I think if that money was given to big Alex we might not be playing the best football but we'd be winning games and ready to fight celtic for titles remember what he did on a shoe string budget last time! He ran Martin O'Neil out of town with his tail between his legs!
1.) 23 Aug 2017 12:18:18
you think.
nothing is ever a certainty so let's give pedro some time work with his squad. he could win the title no one knows
man utd were crap last year. now they look like contenders.
should we sack pedro and give big eck £10m then if that doesn't work sack him and just keep doing that until we get success or go into admin
building a team takes time we just have to be patient
2.) 23 Aug 2017 13:29:05
Im all for giving Pedro time but i must admit Big Eck was my choice at the start
3.) 23 Aug 2017 14:01:50
I really wish people would give up with this Alex McLeish pish! He's done absolutely nothing in the last 6 years to suggest he's still got it as a manager, either in the U. K. Or abroad.
Pedro Caixinha is our manager and he's trying to build a team . Get off the mans back, give him a chance and get behind him and our team. Dave King was so very right when he talked about the huge difference between Rangers Supporters and Rangers Fans!
4.) 23 Aug 2017 14:44:33
A big Alex Rangers side would never have crashed out of Europe against the fourth best team in Luxembourg. And he wouldn't have set up his team the way Pedro did against Celtic twice last season, PC's tactical naivety ensuring two humiliations.
As for the comparison between Rangers now and Man United last season. Well, they are up against some of the richest clubs in the world and they did win a European trophy last season. Also such is Mourinho's track record that they also had to potential to become EPL contenders. If they had brought in a midtable manager from a mickey mouse league in the middle east then he would have been out the door quicker than you could say 'David Moyes'.
5.) 23 Aug 2017 15:09:30
What has Pedro done in the last 6 years in football management? I hope Pedro IS the answer but an Alex McLeish Gers side wouldn't be sitting behind the sheep and st Johnstone.
6.) 23 Aug 2017 15:19:44
Naz . u don know Big Ecks team got pumped out the UEFA cup first in 2002 quicker than you can say Victoria Zizkov
7.) 23 Aug 2017 17:39:28

Are you equating going out to a Czech side after extra time on the away goals rule to getting humped by a team that no one outside Luxembourg had ever heard of?
8.) 23 Aug 2017 19:38:04
Naz
Agree mate the result against the Luxembourg side was by far the worst ever European result in the clubs history. It's unfortunately a sign of just how low we have sunk that some fans seem to think this result was acceptable as was the 5-1 drubbing off them and practically lying down to them in the semi final.
9.) 23 Aug 2017 22:13:41
We should not have appointed a manager with no experience of British football and who wanted to bring a host of untried south Americans to the club simply because he had worked with them before. Period.
It is McGregor the Managing Director who recommended his appointment who should carry the can!
10.) 24 Aug 2017 15:36:28
Naz, a Czech team that no one heard of! I'm comparing getting papped out in the first round with getting papped out in the first round!
Away goals, extra time call it what you want. it still happened!
It stand to reason that the result we had in 2002 was WORSE!
The team that night was Klos, Moore, Konterman, Amoruso, Ricksen, Ferguson, Arteta, Numan, de Boer, Arveladze, Lovenkrands.
Subs: McGregor, Caniggia, McCann, Dodds, Muscat, Latapy, Ross.
Back then that team was very very good, now we are mediocre.
Both results we shocking, and big Eck slept with a manager! Inherited most of Advocaats team!
Done nothing before or after!
06 Jul 2017 19:03:39
I know Pedro had just signed 9 new players most of whom none of us have heard of but I still think he needs to go now! I'd much rather trust Alex MacLeish to get the best out of what players we have now than Pedro he is tactically useless I'd never heard of him before he came in and I'd love it if I never heard from him again.
1.) 06 Jul 2017 20:34:16
Yes let's get a known failed manager to replace a potential failed manager, Alex has been shown the door repeatedly.
2.) 06 Jul 2017 21:38:21
If anyone needs to assist Caixinha Graeme Murty should be promoted to work with the first team.
3.) 06 Jul 2017 21:49:52
Sorry but I wouldn't let Macleish within a million miles of Rangers! let's wait and see how Pedro progresses. He must know by now the changes that he still needs to make and where the team is still very weak!
4.) 06 Jul 2017 22:00:49
Treble winning manager, first manager to take a Scottish Club to the last 16 of the CL, league cup winning manager in England! Mcleish is a failed manager?
5.) 06 Jul 2017 23:19:19
@j1985 - he's done HeeHaw since that League Cup win with Birmingham. Failed at every club since.
6.) 07 Jul 2017 01:27:11
For the moment Wer stuck with Pedro I'm not 100% convinced either but these early European games are always dodgy, judge him and his signings after 10 league games.
7.) 07 Jul 2017 05:09:30
Ill probably get my heid chewed off for this. But he has only had two competitive games with SOME of his players. Imo the games came too soon, hardly any break for last year, hardly any preseason, not enough time to play all the new players - never mind gel practically whole a new team. - not that it is an excuse.
As much as it hurts being embarrassed like that and seeing how slow we were getting the ball in dangerous positions we need to give the guy the benefit of doubt for now. (Its hard to trust especially after warbs)
No doubt we need to hit the ground running in the league but i'm sure they will be putting the hours in on the training ground to bring everyone together and get a bit of cohesion.

STYAB you’ll need to explain that one to me 😟
13 Nov 2017 10:29:45
Truebluesotrue no in our current poisson I’ve said before and I’ll say again I’d like big Eck with Murty as his no2
13 Nov 2017 10:03:03
And just to be clear I have no problems with catholics or protestants I couldn’t care less about religion but MON’s club career consists of Brechin City and shamrock rovers and his win % was nothing to crow about with either of those clubs so for me this is a massive NO we need a manager with a proven track record in the transfer market and some one with big club experience that know what it’s like to have to win every weekend MON has none of those things
13 Nov 2017 09:38:52
For all those thinking MON is the man for Rangers just because he done a good job for NI wake up there is no comparison in getting a squad of countrymen to work hard and pull together to qualify for world cups and euro finals compared to getting our Rangers side full of men from all round the world to pull together every singal weekend and get results this guy has no cv to speak off apart from doing a decent job with NI please do not back this man for the job we can’t afford any more punts we need the right man in right now.
05 Nov 2017 20:06:12
Fodtheprod I’ve been saying big Eck since before Pedro got the job and nothing’s changed for me he is the best man for the job and Murty as his number 2 and if Ferguson is in there too I’d have no complaints

13 Nov 2017 17:09:14
We aren’t a mile behind celtic they are better than us at the moment no doubt, but they are far from great euro result tell you that, if we appoint the right man start defending well and become hard to beat anything is possible trying to play football against them man for man isn't going to work at the moment but that’s why we need someone like Alex Mcleish he’s done it before on a shoe string budget and would be prefect for us right now. IMO
07 Nov 2017 18:30:51
Peds11 what do you have against MacLeish? He inherited a failing team from Advocaat, Martin O’Neill came in to celtic and started dominating us i'm sure we all remember the 6-2 defeat McLeish had to sell players and manage on a shoe string budget but still managed to win 7 trophies in 4 and a half years and was the first manager to get any Scottish club to the last 16 of th CL and if you check his net spend I think you’ll find he done all that on minus £10m or somewhere close to that give the man some credit🙄
04 Nov 2017 13:52:51
Rodgers nearly won the EPL with Liverpool and by the way has been in management half the time Moyes has but he doesn’t concern me, I want a manager with winning credentials not someone that’s won nothing and failed miserably at his last 3 clubs
02 Nov 2017 13:09:10
It has to be big Eck for me Murty as his number 2 learning the ropes to take the job himself in about 2 and a half seasons Eck would steady the ship knows the score at Rangers an would be a good man for Murty to learn from, it would cost anything upfront to get him in and he is of a far higher pedigree than Derek McInnes
30 May 2017 12:22:26
Pena is defenely the most exciting target in my view exsactly what we need
