Interested in Matty willock from man u apparently.
1.) 09 Jul 2017 23:19:09
Maybe our new DoF target?
2.) 10 Jul 2017 13:24:54
Did we not just appoint a new DoF!?
3.) 10 Jul 2017 13:26:54
Boys a big central/ right mid that can play long balls. Not at Man Utd for nothing
4.) 10 Jul 2017 14:10:28
Big? I read he was 5ft 8🤔
5.) 10 Jul 2017 15:55:21
Swany!
Rainger is only 4'3" everyone is big to him.
6.) 10 Jul 2017 16:45:22
Quality blue genius 😂😂
7.) 10 Jul 2017 17:56:35
DoF's target sorry!
8.) 10 Jul 2017 20:35:07
brilliant blue genius 😂
9.) 10 Jul 2017 22:06:58
not at Man Utd for nothing, just like the lengend Grant Brebner ;)
10.) 11 Jul 2017 01:20:40
We had two players on loan from Manchester United few years back. Both flopped. Tic had someone from Manchester United last year or year before, flopped. Just because your at "Manchester United" doesn't mean you are ready for rangers. Young boys with decent future ahead yes. Ready to play in spl? 🤔
11.) 11 Jul 2017 01:35:28
I don't agree with the calls for a new LB! If Wallace is under performing then we have Beerman who I would promote immediately! The guy hasn't even been given a chance yet. In terms of priority we must bring in a quality LW! Can anyone tell me who we have to challenge Dalcio? If PC is thinking about using Morelos there then need to wait and see as I've heard he is good with both feet. I just want to see a left footed Player on the Wing and put a stop to Players needing to cut in when trying to provide balls!
12.) 11 Jul 2017 10:56:54
Don't know if a full promotion is what beerman needs, he was badly caught out a few times against so called 'good' opposition, even Brenda said before the game he was going to have the likes of Roberts exploit the lads weakness and he was right, at fault for 2 goals if my memory serves me, great prospect but I'd bleed him in rather than ruin him by giving him the job he's maybe not ready for, cracking wee player and I hope he comes on this year, Wallace is on borrowed time, again love the guy but caught wanting too much, can't really defend and in the premier league can't cope with the opposition. As for the Dalcio situation only time will tell, not going to draw the comparison but remember a teenage Ronaldo at Ibrox with Man U, kept falling over his feet that night, never bossed the game at all, minimal impact, not suggesting will be the case but he needs a chance to settle and hopefully we'll see him come good.
13.) 11 Jul 2017 10:59:58
Swany, agree mate the players from Man U are not always what they're cracked up to be, would say the winger Lee something or other was poor, the RB Bardsley was alright for us though?
I'd take another Kyle Bartley in a second, if for nothing else than to frighten the lego muncher!
14.) 12 Jul 2017 12:35:51
@Andy-NS Lee Martin I think it was. They were calling him the next Beckham! He did nothing for us
24 May 2017 12:20:25
Bruno alves been offered to galatasaray 😒 hope we don't miss out on him also.
1.) 24 May 2017 13:58:56
We won't miss out on him. It's probs his last big contract and he was never coming here to build up his pension.
& there lies the problem, we are so far behind in salary (never mind the state of Scottish football ) that it will be freebies and end of career pension seekers with no sell on value
2.) 24 May 2017 14:18:14
If we lose out on Alves and don't sign someone of the same calibre then our defence will be a shambles next season again and Pedro will be the next sacrificial lamb.
Only time will tell whether there really is a serious transfer kitty for Pedro that would be £13m+ all the transfer fees received or whether the Rangers support is being conned yet again by King and his Bullsh1t!
3.) 24 May 2017 14:51:37
TOMUSA no offence here mate, but what do you mean 'conned yet again'?
Do you not remember what our club has been through the past 5 years? King is running the club within it's means and he is the only chairman to have done so since David Murray and has stabilised the clubs finances. And let's not forget the small matter of Mike Ashley which prevents us from making any money from merchandise.
If it was not for King and Co it would have been game over for Rangers Football Club. If it was up to some of our supporters the club would have been in administration again long before now.
4.) 24 May 2017 14:55:58
Sound like they are trying to bump up the transfer fee by creating a bidding war!
5.) 24 May 2017 16:50:55
Bearmode91, King has from day one, talked about how he would invest his children's inheritance acquiring players for the Club and how he would see us returned to where we belong. Rule Number one for me, if you don't plan to do it or financially can't do it then don't promise it!
For me, having looked at the monies that other have put into the club, (not the purchase of stock, at a knocked own price to gain control), then, in comparison to others he is a minor investor.
I see nothing that he is doing other than with his mouth to take the club forward, and unlike Lawrence Marlborough all those years ago, I don't see the guy that he has put in to run the club on a day to day basis being all that dynamic.
Rangers, like their counterparts at the other end of the City is a Club with massive potential, especially given the potential for the right Investor to redevelop the surrounding areas to both generate jobs and generate significant income.
King is not the man to take us forward!
In the short term we will see whether the season ticket money + income on the sale of players goes to Pedro to enhance the playing staff or whether this was just more bullsh1t
6.) 24 May 2017 16:59:43
Well said bearmodeðŸ‘
7.) 24 May 2017 17:24:43
Spot on Bear.
TOMUSA has an agenda against King.
He manages to have a go at King in virtually every post and cannot quite bring himself to acknowledging the fact that King and only King put his money in to buy a controlling stake (along with the other current supporting shareholders)
I have asked TOMUSA and other similar detractors on many occasions who or what is the alternative (based on at least a smidgeon of reality) but oddly science is always the loud reply.
8.) 24 May 2017 18:18:32
BR65, Until he puts his money where his mouth is I will continue to question him. In simple terms, unless he was genuinely going to invest the funds in the team then he should have kept quiet.
Now, he has come out and stated that all season ticket money, and that should be circa £13.5m will be invested in the team, and I don't believe that it is a simple coincidence that it has been season ticket renewal time.
Let's just wait and see, the quality of players at the Club has been pretty awful of late and big changes are needed, changes that will only be of the appropriate quality if Pedro has serious money to spend. If he gets the players of the right quality then hopefully he will succeed, if he does not get the financial backing then we cannot blame the manager.
In terms of replacing King, that is a good question, he is only a minority shareholder so would he sell his shares and if so for how much, and if so could a new investor take the club forward. and would that Investor be acceptable to the majority of the Rangers support?
9.) 24 May 2017 18:49:33
Tomusa you are correct that King is a minority shareholder. What I do not understand is why you expect him to pump millions of pounds of his own money into Rangers when he is only a minority shareholder. Why are you not moaning about the other shareholders who do not want to invest their money. The money would not benefit him, it would benefit others that are only here to make money. I do not hear McCoist offering to put money into the club and he is a shareholder who did not back King at the last AGM. I believe King is willing to invest given the right circumstances but did not get the support he required at the last AGM.
10.) 24 May 2017 19:48:46
I think people should lay of DK he has put money in now and before when Murray was in charge. But let's be realistic he ain't going to pump £20m in every season we already know how that ends he's stabilising at the moment and once we we're making money as a club again then we can start spending again this is the only way forward. Dave King will be to rangers what fergus maccan was to ceptic
11.) 25 May 2017 08:40:53
Hi, I read with interest how your fans are divided on the D King issue and from the outside I think that you are both correct but also both wrong!
Yes, DK stepped forward and bought shares to get control of the club but the backing he received from you (the ordinary fan) was based on promises of OVER investing in the first few years in the playing squad and a suggestion that hew would happily spend his family's inheritance however to date all of the money that he HAS put into the club is in the form of a LOAN. someone above stated that his has the club living within its means. how can this be when the club is due anything from 7-13M (various figures being banded about) is loans just to get to the end of this season?
I really hope that this mess can be sorted and that you, the fans, get clarity of what is happening at the club because at the end of the day YOUR club means as much to you as MY club does to me and I really do feel for the ordinary fan.
12.) 25 May 2017 12:36:07
JHW, have you not been listening?
"What I (JHW) do not understand is why you (TOMUSA) expect him (Dave King) to pump millions of pounds of his own money into Rangers when he is only a minority shareholder. "
Ehhh, because he said he would. Is that not a good enough reason to expect it?
13.) 25 May 2017 14:45:43
to me so far king has tried his best to live up to what he said he said we will be in the top devision this season we are
14.) 25 May 2017 16:40:10
some people like tomusa are wanting a sugar daddy to fix things but they won't get it.
king is doing everything he can to get us back to where we belong
15.) 25 May 2017 19:53:50
James, I don't necessarily want a wealthy investor to hand over funds to Rangers, because investing in Scottish Football will never bring financial reward however what I do want is honesty and a strategy to take us forward.
Lawrence Marlborough did not have £billions but he did have a vision for the future and in David Holmes he had a capable CEO to implement his strategy. When Souness was brought in it met with some questions but Souness and Smith delivered and when Lawrence Marlborough no longer had the financial capability to take the club forward as he passed the Club over to someone that was committed to continue his strategy.
Right now all I have seen is empty promises, if you cannot or will not keep the promises made then as Chairman you should not make those promises in the first place. I do not see a strategy for the future and I do not see a CEO with the Acumen of David Holmes.
As for Pedro, I will give him the opportunity to emulate Souness and Smith, right now he is a breath of fresh air. He is giving the young lads a chance, he has quickly identified that most of our current squad are not fit for purpose and he has by all accounts identified players that he believes can take this club forward and challenge our enemies in the East End of Glasgow.
Only time will tell but given the financial resources to secure the players he wants I have a significant degree of confidence that we will have a team that will play for the jersey and give that lot across the City a run for their money.
16.) 25 May 2017 21:52:12
its quite clear to see david king is not going invest signifiant funds so really he should keep quite and stop promising the fans things then not delivering on the promises it is that simple actions speak louder than words then he wouldn't get sluaghterd on hear for it
17.) 25 May 2017 22:55:47
Tbf lads he shouldn't have made stupid promises about investing his kids inheritances etc. Yes he's stabilised our finances but he's also been far from honest with us from day one regarding the finances, you might not like it but it's the only truth of the matter, he hasn't invested like he said he would
18.) 26 May 2017 10:19:49
tomusa things don't happen overnight mater and king will get us there maybe not as quick as you would like but who cares what u and all the other pesimists like.
anyone with two eyes can see he is trying his best to get us back into a strong position but because it hasn't happened yet you doubt that's what he wants.
maybe u just want a sugardaddy
19 May 2017 14:38:30
Apparently we want Niall mcginn. being linked with just about every sheep player lol. a don't want mcginn.
1.) 19 May 2017 14:43:17
Naw just naw.
2.) 19 May 2017 14:43:39
Some fries with that whopper?
3.) 19 May 2017 15:43:57
Good player, will take on his man and can score goals. He's on the same as kenny with slightly less minutes played. And he's not played thru the middle. Be daft not to sign hi even as an impact sub.
4.) 19 May 2017 15:50:38
He's a decent player and better than what's at ibrox but remember this Aberdeen side haven't been close to Celtic for 5 years. It's ok taking 1 or 2 of their better players but signing much more than that will only take us so far.
5.) 19 May 2017 17:10:56
good signing if free!

Am starting to dislike pedro. if that's true about player can't wear green boots. that's just pissing players off and they won't wanna play for him getting told what colour of boots you can wear and can't.
1.) 02 Jul 2017 02:32:29
What self respecting human being would wear green boots anyway!
2.) 02 Jul 2017 03:46:25
Or drink limeade.
3.) 02 Jul 2017 06:59:54
Too right. Our players should not wear green.
4.) 02 Jul 2017 07:57:29
Good idea imo, he's trying to get them to hate Celtic and as much as we do
5.) 02 Jul 2017 08:50:53
I don't see Celtic players kicking about in blue boots (not that I've looked into to be honest)
It's a small fairly petty thing but I agree give them nothing on all levels.
I suspect most of this is bull*hit paper talk
Pretty much all the press is anti Rangers just now in my view so I take everything with a pinch of salt.
On that point what newspaper does everyone think gives the fairest coverage
I won't buy a Daily Record as it's a lot if sh*te
The sun is simply **** so I won't buy that
6.) 02 Jul 2017 10:02:34
Lol to dislike pedro because of that is just plain stupid in my opinion, ru sitting at home bored and just decided to write that up here to stoke up a reaction? Lol
7.) 02 Jul 2017 10:26:24
Sure i saw an interview with Gordon Strachan once who was told to get rid of his blue car before going to Parkhead.
He is trying to breed passion in these players. Also, if one of our players are annoyed because they can't wear green boots (despite the wealth of colours on every make of boot) they can jog on. They obviously care more about their fashion than the club.
Make you like Ped less CAW2, makes me like him a lot more
8.) 02 Jul 2017 10:37:24
Lol, its a pair of football boots! Really embarrassed by the mentality of some of my so called fellow fans. P. S who cares what colour of boots Celtic players wear, Celtic this Celtic that, Are Celtic the benchmark and yard stick we measure ourselves by?
9.) 02 Jul 2017 11:55:05
Banning coloured boots isn't a new I seem to remember advocat banning white boots an having a bit of a stramash with amato because it affected his boot deal
10.) 02 Jul 2017 16:05:20
He is trying to instill some passion in the team. Nothing wrong with that. I don't go to Ibrox wearing a green t-shirt, I wear a blue one. Plus we are Rangers and standards should be kept. Ryan Jack in the after match interview wearing a suit and club tie. The other players in the directors box for the game? . suits and club ties. Looks way smarter than kicking about i trackies.
11.) 03 Jul 2017 12:42:37
Pretty sure warburton done this?
12.) 03 Jul 2017 12:50:24
This is an entirely different type of ban if true. it's pathetic if you ask me. We need to stop this obsession with Celtic, I couldn't give a stuff what they are up to.
Im not sure I believe it to be honest seems petty and pointless. I understand trying to get the team together and educate the new players about our history etc. but green boots is just stupid.
30 Jun 2017 21:54:36
Hope Pena and Herrera are in the squad for the away leg. only seen second half of game but if we play like that then Limassol will make easy work of us am afraid.
1.) 30 Jun 2017 23:33:35
Caw2 are limassol a good team?
2.) 01 Jul 2017 00:19:17
If Pedro is really a first class manger he will immediately speak with McKay and Dodoo and create a pathway to get them back in the first team squad
3.) 01 Jul 2017 02:09:03
Limassol is a tough fixture we could of had tougher opponents so i'll take them any day but i see they did give tottenham a tough time a few years back
4.) 01 Jul 2017 02:26:10
Fd. Why?
5.) 01 Jul 2017 02:26:28
Aye they look good. seen the highlights of the 4 goals they scored away. will be a cricket score when Limassol get that team in Cyprus
6.) 01 Jul 2017 08:37:45
Fd have you been watching them play in different games from the rest of us mackay lacks baws and desire dodoo lacks everything
7.) 01 Jul 2017 18:43:01
Dodoo is a shocking player what you talking about
08 Jun 2017 22:14:46
Getting a tad excited with all these new signings ðŸ˜
23 May 2017 22:17:49
Looks like we are missing out on Patterson to Cardiff ðŸ˜
1.) 23 May 2017 22:54:28
Ye seen this mate look like Cardiff signing him wonder how many more we will miss out on
2.) 23 May 2017 23:46:45
Rangers will miss out every time if the player has an opportunity to play in Premiership or a Championship team that have half a chance of playing in the Prem.
3.) 24 May 2017 14:29:02
While King is in charge I just don't see us signing any quality players unless Pedro himself can convince players to sign for us. Like him or hate him, Murray usually got his man, King comes over as being disinterested except for when its season ticket time!
4.) 24 May 2017 20:16:10
Not that bothered we missed out tbh
5.) 24 May 2017 20:25:33
Murray got his man becsuse he paid them tax free so they could earn more money with Rangers thsn anywhere else. that's gone now and thete won't be any marquee signings anymore
6.) 25 May 2017 08:58:07
Gie us peace eh?!
7.) 25 May 2017 13:05:39
listen cardiff getting patterson and galatasari getting alves doesn't look too promising a start for our manager.
hopefully he can get alves to scotland though as he had his time in turkey with fernebache
8.) 25 May 2017 13:30:32
That's why naismith will not be signing either he will get a contract in the championship no problem
22 May 2017 14:09:58
Just read that toral got booed when he came off against st Johnstone. that's shocking. maybe we would of seen the best of him if he get played in the right position he's an attacking mid not a holding mid.
1.) 22 May 2017 14:38:04
I don't think he got boo'd he got a decent reception when he went off.
2.) 22 May 2017 14:42:28
Are we supposed to believe the support booed off one of our goal scorers? I head some booing on TV when young Jamie Barjonas was being taken off, but I'm pretty sure that was because the young boy was having a good game and the fans wanted him on the park.
3.) 22 May 2017 14:55:14
Was reading it on the rangers page said he got booed
4.) 22 May 2017 15:29:23
If that's true its a disgrace
5.) 23 May 2017 00:32:30
Caw2, where on the Rangers website did you see this? I've done searches and can find nothing. A whiff of something nasty here.
6.) 23 May 2017 09:44:12
I was at the game and he definitely never got booed at all, actually got quite a good reception leaving the park.
7.) 23 May 2017 14:35:56
he played ok at holding mid, he was just too lightweight, similiar to zelalem in many ways but probably a better player
30 Jul 2017 16:49:00
Need to stop playing miller for a full 90 mins every game.
29 Jul 2017 18:55:21
He's a fan big deal. doesn't mean we should sign him
09 Jul 2017 01:23:12
Dorrans past it can't get in Scotland or Norwich team no sell on value people want him to sign because he's a Bluenose.
08 Jul 2017 19:17:10
Dorrans isn't a marquee signing.
08 Jul 2017 18:46:31
Who said we were making a marquee signing?
21 Jul 2017 14:23:45
We won't beat Marseille. plus the game is tomorrow.
08 Jul 2017 22:47:32
I was saying it was disgrace that we drew with tns and st Johnstone and got slated but signs were there then we got beat in Europe. terrible team
08 Jul 2017 22:51:20
Aye rangers fans want there own team to get beat so they can moan get a grip
06 Jul 2017 00:07:12
Bates will never be good enough. he's rank rotten.
03 Jul 2017 22:02:58
Pena is a playmaker.
