Any rumours on ben Davies and rabbi Matondo leaving? Glad if they go and get some money back.

1.) 28 May 2023 19:58:54
Wouldn’t be surprised if either were sold. Think Davies is more likely than Matondo but both may be moved on in the summer or both may stay.

2.) 28 May 2023 20:41:23
There would need to be a bid first and there’s nothing to suggest there has been. Rangers paid a far some of money for both these players, and Imimagine they’re on good wages too. Both have had poor seasons so I find it highly unlikely that we would get that financial outlay back. Really bad business from the club again.

Last summer was a disaster.

3.) 28 May 2023 20:58:41
Davies to Brentford being banded about at Brentford, Matondo will stay.

4.) 28 May 2023 20:59:24
I think matondo might come good with more game time.

5.) 28 May 2023 20:59:58
Davies will be gone if a suitable offer that both the club and player agree to, it's not that he doesn't like it here or wether we think he's good enough or not he's got family issues that have affected him this season and he wants to be back down south with family.

6.) 28 May 2023 21:27:09
Both will stay.

7.) 28 May 2023 21:45:19
Davies wants to be closer to family with his ill partner. Rangers willing to listen to offers to allow the player to go.

8.) 28 May 2023 22:10:46
Both maybe be moved on in the summer or both may stay lol brilliant ?.

9.) 28 May 2023 22:49:42
I don't get this about Matondo. Think the lad has looked like he has something about him in the last few games. Think it would be a huge mistake letting the lad go as think he will come good for us.

10.) 28 May 2023 23:35:37
Don’t get why folk want rid of Davies either would be a great back up next season say we gif rid of him that leaves us with Jon and Conner the only senior cb at the club wee need another cb in and is Davies leaves we would need 2.

11.) 29 May 2023 03:05:37
@Rfc22

Goldson has sustained an injury that’ll keep him out for several months. Souttar is injury prone and it’s doubtful he’ll remain fit for a team that plays twice a week beyond Christmas. Davies doesn’t seem to have the physicality for Scottish football, or the mentality to handle those high pressure games against Celtic. I’d argue we already need another 2 CBs.

We will absolutely sign at least one CB. My guess is that if we can sell Davies, then we will. However, I imagine he’s on good wages so It certainly won't be easy.

12.) 29 May 2023 07:04:17
I honestly think Davies is get far too much stick it was a high profile error in the Celtic game sure. But his performances in the lead up to that game were not bad. He's also capable of being used as a more defensive lb which could be handy in Europe.

13.) 29 May 2023 07:34:19
Verdant have you taken a misery pill mate. How is it really bad business again by our club. No bid made for Davies or Matondo and you've no idea what we will get for them if and when an offer comes in.

14.) 29 May 2023 12:26:10
Verdant if we sign 2 cb better than Davies they will need to be 1st choice cb do you thing Jon and Conner will be happy on the bench?

08 May 2023 16:50:57
Very concerned I received some information regarding the transfer market i'm hearing from a trustworthy source there's nothing more than 8M avaliable to the manager.

1.) 08 May 2023 17:13:31
Sounds about right tbh. That's why we seem to be favouring bosmans. Perhaps we'll sell a couple and get a few mill in to boost it.

2.) 08 May 2023 17:22:01
Sounds about right Fred, but if we sell maybe Kamara and maybe barisic then we should get another 3-5 m. If we don't take Tilman then that's another 3 I think. We'll save a huge amount on the wages of Kent, Morelos mcgregor, Davis, Hellander and probably look to shift out Wright and possibly Colak and mcglaughlin. We'll be looking at decent bosmans such as the boy from Norwich and maybe Maja, try to buy young hungry players for a few million like the arsenal centre back that's on loan in the mls and maybe a Nisbet/ Shankland that can do it in our bread and butter league. Hopefully devine and lowry come through and hagi fit again . Based on cantwell and Raskin, Beale has a good eye for a player. I really don't think we're a long way off celtic if we stop carrying the passengers and have a hungry team. I've quite liked Matondo in last couple if games, think Soutar will come really good for us and there is a small chance our best striker Roofe may stay fit for a season.

3.) 08 May 2023 17:22:11
I would be pleasantly surprised if it was as high as £8m.

4.) 08 May 2023 17:28:40
Fred86 strange considering Beale came out and said he has a bigger budget than any rangers manager in years. So that would make that statement false.

5.) 08 May 2023 17:43:18
8 plus a % of player sales isn’t bad.

Colak, Davies, Barasic, Hagi, Kamara, Lundstram, Sakala, Yilmaz, Matondo are all sellable assets and I’d expect at least 5 of them to be moved on.

6.) 08 May 2023 18:31:01
Our board need a kicking pissed away a lot we've earned.

7.) 08 May 2023 18:55:57
You would think some people on here would have the exact same source because there can't be that many. Plus I definitely wouldn't be asking that source again if none of these come. If they are that reliable then these should be a shoe in. Do you mean we are wanting these players.

8.) 08 May 2023 18:57:55
£8m they will be quaking in their boots over in the east end.

9.) 08 May 2023 19:43:10
Would keep Hagi and Yilmaz. Hopefully we could get our cash back for Davies (he's thought of highly down south) and a good profit on Kamara. Barasic, Sakala, Matondo and Lundstram we will struggle to get decent cash for. Need to cash in tho if possible and invest wisely.

10.) 08 May 2023 21:08:40
Did someone post that the money to sign Tillman was ring fenced and if that’s correct there must be more than £8 million in the transfer kitty?

11.) 08 May 2023 21:21:52
If the board didn't have to payout on legal fees we'd be OK from what iv read poss 4/ 5,m to elite if they settle add that to money paid to Ashley that's 11m complete incompetence.

12.) 08 May 2023 22:34:08
David why sell Yilmaz? very talented lb.

13.) 08 May 2023 19:56:28
Who would give you this information that it would make you believe it. Or Does it come to you in a dream or a vision.

14.) 08 May 2023 20:04:18
Would agree with that estimate, less than 10mill, then IF IF IF we are able to sell, some of that on top.

15.) 08 May 2023 20:34:11
I'd imagine any signing on fee for a free agent will be in the budget remember they add up too if its a decent player.

16.) 08 May 2023 21:07:23
Gms. Looks like Davies getting op and will be out till after window closes.

17.) 09 May 2023 12:33:39
If its any less that last years £12 million there should be a call for an investigation from the support. If you add that to the money that was ring fenced for Sands and Tillman which is about £10million plus sales and that is a decent budget.

18.) 09 May 2023 15:57:54
There are loads of free transfers available, spending money on a player doesn't mean he'll be a success.

14 Jul 2022 20:12:18
Two premier league clubs are interested in Bassey Aston villa and Brighton. Bassey has been in contact with Ajax over a potential move Rangers are wanting 25M nothing less but I would slap another 5M on that he is clearly wanted and is only 22 with years ahead if Rangers are clever here they could bank 30M from the sale of one player.

1.) 14 Jul 2022 20:29:28
Or Maybe they say they aren’t paying that for a player from Scotland a look elsewhere we lose 20 million lol.

2.) 14 Jul 2022 21:22:53
Bidding war ?.

3.) 14 Jul 2022 21:45:04
Dont think there is a 25-30 mill bid coming in.
The BUYING clubs have seen how we operate and won't go there.
It's all about add ons!

4.) 14 Jul 2022 21:47:41
Not seen it reported anywhere that Villa are interested Ajax and Brighton yes.

5.) 14 Jul 2022 22:01:07
We don't lose 20m. We keep a 20m+ rated player.

6.) 14 Jul 2022 22:22:28
Love bassey but lefts be honest he an amazing 6 weeks before that was hot and cold and start a the season couldn’t win a header young players form goes up and down grab 20 million if it is there because it’s the most we will get for any our players anytime soon and could invest in the squad.

7.) 14 Jul 2022 22:24:22
Any bid above 20 million the club can't turn down, 20% sell on as well and it would be a great deal for us.

8.) 14 Jul 2022 22:43:55
Agree Mark. No way we can turn down that, especially given how much Calvin cost us.

9.) 14 Jul 2022 22:53:40
I'd be very surprised if Ajax offered £20 million for a Scottish player, or any other player.

10.) 15 Jul 2022 06:04:07
Otterspocket, they just spent 26m for spurs player.

11.) 15 Jul 2022 06:10:04
How many years has Bassey left on contract?

12.) 15 Jul 2022 06:42:50
He has 2 years left on his contract stormtrooper.

13.) 15 Jul 2022 06:46:52
2 years Storm.

14.) 15 Jul 2022 07:54:17
Cool for some reason I thought it was maybe 1 so we really need to get him signed on a longer deal or sell him as next season the price will drop because he only has one year left then.

15.) 15 Jul 2022 08:04:49
Agree Storm. If we can get one more good season out of him his stock will be even higher next summer.

16.) 15 Jul 2022 08:41:58
Allegedly as well as ajax, brighton and aston villa interested in signing calvin bassey, i'm told west ham very interested along with 2 german clubs rumoured to be eintracht frankfurt and borussia dortmund ?It was also reported that RBLeipzig had shown an interest ?
If we are going to sell big shirley and money does talk, then for our sakes it's better being an auction and the more clubs vying for his signature the better for us, as we'll get a higher fee for him?.

17.) 15 Jul 2022 09:24:31
Walter his agent doing well. Throwing out names off clubs.

14 Jul 2022 13:59:16
The most ridiculous rumour I've seen so far is Reyna from dortmund on loan the guy is on 40k a week and valued at 25M.

1.) 14 Jul 2022 14:30:21
Are you forgetting we signed Diallo last year worth a similar value? I wouldn’t rule anything out - Reyna’s god father is Gio too.

2.) 14 Jul 2022 14:35:53
Fred how about Ramsey, 400k a week at juventus to rangers.

3.) 14 Jul 2022 14:42:14
Ramsey was £400k, anything in football can happen, although this one is extremely unlikely. There is no reason for Dortmund to pursue this. If he is struggling for form then there would be of leagues and teams better suited for his development. Not in a team where every win is crucial. Would doubt Man it’s would have been happy with the amount of minutes diallo got last season with us.

4.) 14 Jul 2022 14:58:24
I agree zikos, I don’t think it will happen

I have contact at Man U, they would actually like him to return to us, they feel he made progress and toughen up a bit, that’s why they wanted him to us

More work required re mental toughness and physical development.

5.) 14 Jul 2022 15:01:56
Don’t forget wee jd as well was on 65k a week.

6.) 14 Jul 2022 17:25:40
I don't think getting him in is to farfetched atall look at Ramsey, Defoe, Diallo on massive wages. But aren't Dortmund happy with him and starting him most games? In that case we have no chance.

7.) 14 Jul 2022 18:24:56
Only thing that with they 3 mentioned is that they were basically bombed out at the clubs they were at.

Reyna will be a starter for Dortmund most weeks if fit.

8.) 14 Jul 2022 18:54:34
Ramsey was on £175K not 400K.

9.) 14 Jul 2022 19:52:15
Tell that to juventus then.

10.) 14 Jul 2022 20:05:25
Gr7 Ramsey was in 400k mate


Reyna will not be at rangers.

11.) 14 Jul 2022 20:10:41
Reyna won’t be at rangers.

12.) 15 Jul 2022 10:12:32
The BBC reported 400K when he signed. His wage was 175K. Dybala is highest paid on 222K. This info is no hard to find. 400K per week is over 20 Million per year. Was he worth that when he left Arsenal?

Please clemont take lundstram out and put sterling in midfield it is more effective with diomande, cantwell, sterling.

1.) 06 May 2024 22:57:26
Have we ever even seen a midfield 3 of Cantwell Diomande and Sterling for you to make that comment?

2.) 06 May 2024 23:22:01
Lundstrum will be first name on sheet for Saturday, thought he played well in last on Sunday to be fair, a would put Sterling in the middle as well with Dio and Lundstrum and go 4-3-2-1 with Lawerance and Cantwell in front of the three and Silva up top unless Sima is fit, really hoping Clemont not stubborn to keep same formation but doubt he will change it.

3.) 07 May 2024 08:54:47
Dessers starts all day, certainly b4 silva

I see sima and matondo coming off the bench, also do not dismiss wright being involved.

4.) 07 May 2024 09:36:41
How can anyone want silva leading the line is beyond me. He’s 5/ 10 as a winger but as a number 9 he’s a 0/ 10.

5.) 07 May 2024 00:45:14
Take Cantwell out.

6.) 07 May 2024 10:39:58
A said Silva because he’s only option for pace with Sima and Matando out if he decided to go 4-3-2-1by flooding midfield and catching them on break, like it or not he’s twice the speed of Dessers probably better finisher and will at least get us free kicks further up the park, who else going to give us that that’s available.

7.) 07 may 2024 13:49:37
wright will play a part john, I've no doubt about that.

8.) 07 May 2024 15:06:42
Tom I will not be surprised if he starts.

9.) 07 May 2024 15:22:15
He needs the balls to take Tavernier out of the team against them and play Sterling rb.

06 May 2024 00:10:42
Do you think sterling is more effective from midfield take out lundstram he slows it down and put matondo on the right wing maybe give roofe a start for 45 mins then dessers.

1.) 06 May 2024 06:51:48
Matondo is injured mate.

2.) 06 May 2024 08:42:02
Would matondo and Roofe not need to be fir, once agin need goals roofe not available to vom on even for 15 minutes.

3.) 06 May 2024 09:49:46
Very concerning regarding roofe, thought he’d come on yesterday but obviously manager doesn’t think he’s capable/ or doesn’t trust him. No other striker on bench.

4.) 06 may 2024 13:25:34
just shows how thin we are for strikers,

5.) 06 May 2024 15:04:19
Tom, not just strikers, but also defenders.

05 May 2024 23:49:54
Not a rumour but if I were a Rangers player we have to go to parkhead with no fear yes they will boo us they will try everything to make it a toxic event for us but we have to go for them and silence them just turn up do them and leave quietly is the approach we should take I hope we actually take the game to them show no respect what so ever we need to press them hard shut them down quickly no time on the ball in there face attitude just like the dortmund game take it to them when they don't expect it I just question how much they are up for this do they have it in them to turn up?

1.) 06 May 2024 00:18:47
Agree Fred, but been seeing these types of posts for past 2 year every time we play them, unfortunately it never turns out that way pal. We as fans and our manager will know what needs to be done, but this group don't have the minerals mate. I honestly think we as fans are due a performance from them, we always do our part, over to them.

2.) 06 May 2024 08:02:00
At the end of the day, it's 11 against 11 on the park, no matter what's coming from the stands. Blank it out and play the game at 100% is all we can ask. ?.

3.) 06 May 2024 10:00:53
Fred, sadly it’s very unlikely that this group will somehow find the mental strength to go out and do what you say, there have been too many games when they have failed, I hope I’m wrong but in my heart I know how it’s going to go and it hurts.

4.) 06 May 2024 10:17:12
Good players thrive off an atmosphere like that. No extra motivation should be needed but Brenda comments should be fuel to every player.

5.) 06 May 2024 10:32:33
Spot on, Seeker.
All we can ask is that the players give their all.

6.) 06 May 2024 10:52:16
They are now laughing at us. Brenda wants to have fun and toy with us, I don't know a lot of Celtic fans but the ones I do have us down for a humiliation. They will start like Duracell bunnies and we have to get in their faces from the off. We need every player to fight for the Jersey and carry a great deal of luck. I would like to see a midfield of Lundstram, Diomonde and Sterling and I'd play wee McCausland and get him to run at them at least he knows what it's all about.

24 Apr 2024 12:09:19
Do you think it would be a good idea if we deliberately navigate our way to the europa conference league we have a high chance of winning it plus it will be 12M for the winners plus a cup all the qualifying rounds total 12M plus the ticket sales.

1.) 24 Apr 2024 12:27:42
A high chance? Not sure about that. Also champs league money is crazy this coming season which the club are very much in need of.

2.) 24 Apr 2024 12:57:41
Firstly, not sure rangers should be deliberately losing games just to end up in the Europa Conference.
Secondly, we should always be striving to test ourselves at the highest level possible.
And lastly, the semi-finals are contested by Villa ( 4th in the EPL ) , Brugges ( a team who have done well previously in the CL ) , Italian and Greek team.
No mugs at that level anymore.

3.) 24 Apr 2024 13:18:14
Are you joking? Why in God's name would we intentionally sacrifice the chance to play in the biggest club competition in the world to drop into a lower level? Also, "high chance of winning"?! Eh?
If ever a post wasn't thought out, this is it.

4.) 24 Apr 2024 13:23:08
I never want my club in that competion.

5.) 24 Apr 2024 13:45:11
We could make over 24 million from 8 games in c. l then potentially drop into europa, make more money. If we can't beat motherwell, rc and dundee how do we have a high chance of winning it? Any the 3 euro comps are full of quality at the later stages.

6.) 24 Apr 2024 15:04:36
No europa league drop down this year i don't think boy blue.

7.) 24 Apr 2024 16:37:37
Cool paul cheers mate ?.

8.) 24 Apr 2024 16:38:13
Paul I'm sure we do drop into el if we fail to qualify for cl.

9.) 24 Apr 2024 16:54:31
I’m fairly certain that ‘deliberately navigating’ a drop down into a different competition would be considered match fixing. No professional sportsperson, who by character, are hardwired to aim to win, would deliberately want to lose as a small fish in a big pond to win as a bigger fish in a smaller pond. I find this notion preposterous.

10.) 24 Apr 2024 18:26:06
This year in the conf league you have Aston Villa, Olyimpiacos, Fiorentena, Fenerbache, Ajax, Betis, Frankfurt. you say high chance, I say low chance, very low. Deliberately navigating into this comp, how would that work.

11.) 24 apr 2024 18:37:48
balderdash, nae, bunkum.

12.) 24 Apr 2024 19:32:45
Really is the most ridiculous thing I have read on here in a while Fred ?.

13.) 24 Apr 2024 19:44:19
Pretty sure Paul is right no drop into EL from group stages 1-8 straight into last 16 9-24 play off winners through 25-32 out of Europ.

14.) 24 Apr 2024 19:48:38
Nae nae Mr wilks.

15.) 24 Apr 2024 20:14:23
One walter yes but not if we make group stages.

16.) 24 Apr 2024 21:02:09
Up there with some of the worst posts I have seen.

17.) 24 Apr 2024 23:27:18
The champions league is just a leathering for us. Pointless. Money fine but to watch our team get kicked around like an empty fag packet is not enjoyable.

18.) 25 apr 2024 17:41:02
no, we had a terr8bke season due to a ridiculous amount of injuries, we've had some decent times in cl too, like almost making the first eve4 final before marseille cheated and we suffered.

23 Feb 2024 17:13:40
We must win the spl league to gain the riches of the revamped champions league and get the benefits of the financial gain because the 2026 season looks unlikely any Scottish team would get into the champions league cause the czec Republic will have better coefficient then us come 2026 so best enjoy the europa league for the next 5 years or so before we can claim an automatic spot in the champions league again.

1.) 23 Feb 2024 18:11:48
i thought it was what they had at the end of this season, maybe i am wrong.

2.) 23 Feb 2024 18:32:19
Do the winners play a qualifier if not straight into revamped group stage, do we lose the spot for upcoming season if the Czech teams leap frog us?

3.) 23 Feb 2024 19:19:41
Remember the ‘champions route’ in Champions League Qualification is easier than the ‘league path’. We would likely face the champions of Moldova etc and then Denmark or akin to that level as opposed to runners up of higher ranked leagues like PSV or Monaco etc.

4.) 23 Feb 2024 19:31:28
So you’re saying we couldn’t qualify through the knock out rounds? Like we did when Tillman scored the winner v PSV? That’s positive thinking ? Whilst we are nowhere near being a CL level club, I fully expect us to be participating in the competition in the coming seasons.

5.) 23 Feb 2024 19:37:09
The 2 Sparta's got Liverpool and Milan so don't think we should worry 2 much about the coefficient just yet.

6.) 23 Feb 2024 20:19:56
Whoever wins league this season goes straight in next seasons. But if we don’t outperform the other Czech teams then as of the season after it will be a qualifier.

7.) 23 Feb 2024 20:32:19
Fork they also have a team competing in the confrence league. Regardless of competition its all co efficient points.

8.) 23 Feb 2024 20:43:01
Fork their is another in the conference up against sevette.

9.) 23 Feb 2024 21:24:02
Its not for next season but the season after.

10.) 23 Feb 2024 22:02:13
Aye but if they two go out and we go through, it leaves one in the conference against us, one team a piece similar points, think we get 0.4 a win as it stands, Czechs get 0.5 cause they have 3 teams as it stands, I maybe be wrong but that's my understanding.

11.) 23 Feb 2024 22:09:27
The other Czech team is Viktoria Pizen.

12.) 24 Feb 2024 01:10:41
They might all get knocked out but still pick up enough points to take over us if we fail to win any of the two games, something to worry about in a year and a half a suppose, got enough on our plate starting at 3pm.

13.) 24 Feb 2024 08:22:54
That's all very well coops but means the 2 Sparta's need to draw or win against L/ pool and Milan, same applies to Viktoria Pizen/ Servette albeit for lesser points in conference, but your right 3 points today is a must.
