Looks like everything coming to a quick conclusion re the takeover.
Roll on the good times!
1.) 09 May 2025 11:54:08
How quick is quick, have you heard something concrete.
2.) 09 May 2025 12:14:57
Rohl on the good times.

King saying middle of June.

Very interesting comments by big Dessers on Rangers Review, which, by the way, I totally endorse.
"I think if two years ago, the day I signed, you would tell the fans 'this striker is going to score 47 goals in two seasons' I think everybody would have said 'oh, yes, please'. And I did it until now. Could have been more, probably yes. Could have been less, probably yes. So I'm just trying to do my job, and it hurt me a lot in the beginning, but now I kind of moved past that. And I'm just focusing on myself, helping my teammates out, helping the team out. But I think, if you put it that way, I think in a team with a lot of ups and downs to score 25 goals, I think that's a good achievement, and I'm proud of that. "
What is they say, "You don't know what you've got till it's gone.

Big man is spot on Jim??.
2.) 05 May 2025 18:15:57
Can't argue with any of that.
3.) 05 May 2025 18:41:25
The amount of ridicule big Dessers gets is unbelievable. Where would be without his goals? I honestly think he gets the grief because we're shocking defensively and can't keep clean sheets so every miss from the big man can have consequences of dropped points.
4.) 05 May 2025 19:30:48
The problem is the fans see he misses some chances and the press in every match in every article on him go on about the amount he misses. yet if you look at Maeda who doesn't get that hassle he actually has a lower scoring percentage to chances but because the press don't go on about it it gets passed by. as an example he could have won the match on Sunday if he had finished the 1 on 1 sitter at the end.
5.) 05 May 2025 19:39:55
Fairly simplistic argument. If he told us that he would score 47 goals and miss at least that amount of sitters and that his conversation rate would be as poor as it is, I don't think anyone would have said yes please.
He's a guy I like as a person and would think he's a good team mate but even on Saturday he showed what is wrong with his game, calmly scored a great finish but later miskicked an easy chance from 10 yards that might have won us the game.
Lets not forget how poor his overall play is too.
6.) 05 May 2025 19:59:02
Even superally missed more than a few.
Nice big guy, just wish he would put the laces through a few rather than tiptoeing into the box.
7.) 05 May 2025 20:05:33
Seems a very likeable guy big cyril and if he goes, he'll go with my best wishes, hope he's successful wherever he goes.
Most are in agreement we need better.
8.) 05 May 2025 20:42:28
Sir Struth he gets the grief because fans believe there is a mythical striker out there who doesn't miss chances. only 6 other Rangers strikers have scored more than 20 goals since 2000 and only 3 of those have done it two seasons or more. so perhaps his goal scoring record isn't that bad.
9.) 05 May 2025 20:27:00
Sir Struth I 100% agree with you mate.
10.) 05 May 2025 20:44:53
Love the big guy??.
11.) 05 May 2025 21:23:57
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Ooh, bop-bop-bop

12.) 05 May 2025 21:31:12
I live the big man. He's a better striker than people realise. He'd be here next season if was up to me, one of 3 with igamane and another.
13.) 05 May 2025 22:45:34
What some forget is the amount of chances that Dessers creates for himself, it's not like he misses tap ins from 5yards out every week. He feeds off scraps and creates lots of chances for himself. I think we've had value for money from him, and he plays every week and not on the treatment table like others.
14.) 05 May 2025 23:52:00
Well said Alloa, he's always fit and smiling despite getting a roasting from his own fans most weeks. Aye, his missed some sitters but he's scored some worldies too.

I do subscribe to RTV (although I could access it easily without paying) just to put something back into the club. Although, having watched the coverage today, it is really a very poor end product.
A) So called "coverage" starts 15 mins before game.
B) No wee studio panel, historically, like Emma Dodds, Alan Hutton and maybe a Craig Moore.
C) No disrespect to the Ladies side of club, but, to use about 10 mins of the interval listening to all their worthy ambitions, I'm sorry, that's the Club just "padding out" valuable air time which should be used for analysis of the preceding first half.
D) A further full-time discussion on the overall performance, by the MIA Studio Panel.
1.) 26 Apr 2025 18:21:53
I have to agree for the 9.99 I think it should be better. Your prob right about padding out with any old guff as well. i'm hopeful that with our new owners this experiance will be elevated to another level.
On another note I hope having an establishd womens team will reap huge rewards in some way, women's soccer in the USA is huge, could we sign the top US ladies and poss do well in the womens CL, Americans would love that and the comercial opertunities that would bring is a good thing.
2.) 26 Apr 2025 18:27:39
It should be free as we need to listen to tam miller.
3.) 26 Apr 2025 18:45:35
Im also a subscriber living in Canada, it's dreadfully painfull listening to Tom Miller and his guest every game. The whole RTV set up needs revolutionized as part of the club rebuild, provided it goes ahead. ?.
4.) 26 Apr 2025 18:57:15
TJBB the top USA ladies either stay in USA or go to Spain England etc… no different to the males.
5.) 26 Apr 2025 19:02:31
As a plus (or is it negative? ) you get to see the game. I always go and do something anyway as I can't be bothered with any of that before middle or after bit.
01 Mar 2025 18:31:50
Ok guys, having watched the game today I'm now taking my evening pills.
No need for concern, overdose only briefly crossed my mind.
1.) 01 Mar 2025 18:46:07
Just weak that's about it Jefte and Hagi on one side meant it was a freebie for M/ well , Bahrami is just not that bothered, the apparent striker that's going to make us £50m ain't, Cerny now so predictable for any side to see and today tried shots that near killed someone in row Z, Diomande is in and out but physically weak, never mind Fergie there isn't a coach in the world that could do much with that lot.
10 May 2025 19:29:36
Well guys, who stated, prior to Clement's appointment, his preferred candidate was Frank Lampard, and got slagged for it, - yes it was our old manager Graeme Sounesss.
I've got a tenner on him at - 25/ 1, it seems to getting jumped on
as a very realistic possibility.
Who knows? - certainly, not me!
01 May 2025 17:40:33
Just because SG is one of the favourites actually means heehaw.
Total renewal of all things at Ibrox is imminent, as we move into an new era - simples.
27 Apr 2025 12:03:24
You are correct John, it was hard to watch Barry doing that.
Also, during the match, once or twice, he looked absolutely disgusted with what he was seeing (as if he was in a restaurant, having ordered a bowl of Cullen Skink and being presented with a bowl of steaming vomit! ) .
19 Apr 2025 18:05:23
I really think SG coming back to Rangers is a massive con by the bookies - how many mugs are going to waste money backing this?
24 Feb 2025 17:22:10
Having heard so many whinges about foreign coaches, foreign players
etc, for several years, let's see if a wee spell of "Scottish Rangers men" who, supposedly, understand the SPFL, can therefore transform us back into a team winning games that we should be winning.
These same guys have been (as pundits) earning a decent living, so, for them, it's put up or shut up.
I'm not being negative here, I honestly do hope these guys can use their collective SPFL knowledge to turn us around.
18 May 2025 14:49:21
MPH, John Brown on RTV was insistent it is "corruption". Quite funny when wee Tom Miller said "you can't say that John" and John replied "I just did, and I'll say it again - corruption".
15 May 2025 18:15:24
MPH, Tav allowing Dessers to take the penalty kick, to clock up the 50 goals, over 2 seasons, was about the only good thing he did against DU.
14 May 2025 16:30:40
Also Angus, as someone else pointed out, Cameron has 12 goals and 8 assists, and could maybe be a very good option, with better players around him at Ibrox.
13 May 2025 11:28:48
I'm a bit concerned if this latest rumour of DA possibly being in the running for our new manager.
Asa himself, a wee while ago, was not very impressed by any interest in this guy, while our Ed more or less said he would be a terrible choice.
12 May 2025 17:42:12
Boy Blue, imho, it's mostly about confidence and belief, which, we have sadly lacked, unless we're playing Celtic and in Europe.
