Told today clement will have around 25 million to spend in the summer window,
1.) 26 Apr 2024 13:46:12
Hope this is true John as we will need every penny of it.
2.) 26 Apr 2024 13:51:10
Is that over and above any sales John?
We will need a decent budget to replace the outgoings, some of which are on a free with no fee.
But probably more than I expected.
3.) 26 Apr 2024 13:56:11
That's heartening to hear John. With that and good use of the loan/ free market, that's a boost.
PC will need it. He's got a big job on his hands.
4.) 26 Apr 2024 14:03:07
Heavily dependent on outgoings surely? That would tell me Butland is leaving and there may be truth in the Tav and Goldson rumours.
5.) 26 Apr 2024 14:22:06
I seen a tweet predicting this purely because of a trend.
Unsure I believe it unless we have a major cull of the squad alongside champions league football.
6.) 26 Apr 2024 14:28:41
John I was reading about that yesterday, But I thought it was BS because it was on Ibrox Noise. ???????????.
7.) 26 apr 2024 14:32:51
and yet i was told by one or two “ what part of can't afford do you not get “
i'm not surprised in the slightest, i suspected the plan was to back clement or he wouldn't b3 here, , rangers are far from skint, no matter what some like to think, we could easily hav3 soent in january but it a club decision not too because we have a plethora of players atm, i suspect more will be spent depending on losing at least 8-12 players.
8.) 26 Apr 2024 14:34:41
I don’t believe it’s over and above sales but time will tell
Remember most on here wat shot of Goldston tav Davies hagi matondo Lammers
Butland will if he goes generate millions on his own
Free transfers and loans in.
I’m very keen on two bosmans who r an upgrade.
We have significant savings on salary happening.
9.) 26 Apr 2024 14:54:29
With certain players leaving are we not looking to move 100-130k of the wage bill, that doesn't include the rumoured sales of Tav and goldsons which if true add another 67k to that rough figure. I would hope those wages would be spent on younger hungrier players with sell on assets.
10.) 26 Apr 2024 14:55:06
No offence to anyone but we get told this BS by the club most seasons and it never materialises. Funnily enough always around renewal time ?.
They don’t seem to take outgoings into account.
11.) 26 Apr 2024 14:58:08
Would that include the £6 million that i'm hearing Gerrard is paying for our captain and vice captain?
12.) 26 apr 2024 15:21:15
zikos, hiw do you take outgoings into account,
your either buying or not, there's always outgoings mate,
13.) 26 Apr 2024 15:31:02
Zikos I said last year we had 20 million to spend, we spent 21.
14.) 26 Apr 2024 15:37:52
25m would good to me . Hope we do get some quality bosmans.
15.) 26 Apr 2024 15:43:20
John -Think you mentioned in a previous post about the 2 bosmans.
What positions do they play?
16.) 26 Apr 2024 16:11:44
John is that just transfer fees? Or wages etc…. Also
TT it was the manager that said we had no money in jan and I was one that said that to you and that was the reason unless you are calling the manager a liar?
17.) 26 Apr 2024 16:26:47
I hope Connor barron is 1 of the bosmans. Brilliant young player.
18.) 26 apr 2024 16:33:40
all managers lie , every single one, surely you know that, the truth is often the last thing youl hear in football.
19.) 26 Apr 2024 16:37:14
Have heard quite similar John. Also heard Lunny agreed deal with Trabzonspor along with Barasic.
A good start to a heavy wage bill being reduced.
20.) 26 Apr 2024 16:42:58
Hope he's lying about Tavernier and Goldson been Rangers players next season Tom.
21.) 26 Apr 2024 16:58:02
Look at current side to asses what they have spent, we need real money people in but the current imposters would stop it.
Ron and Reg from Greenock on the buses have more money than the current lot added together.
It's a dream for a nice Saudi prince or Kuwait where one prince has just followed Jesus . is it the one that plays for Arsenal?
22.) 26 Apr 2024 17:19:51
Bosman signing on fees will take a lot up, Sima and Diomonde will take up about 12 m but at least this can be recouped, buying youth and keeping wages lower must be the way forward, can’t believe we could possibly win a treble and still need double figures in players coming in and leaving to have a squad for beginning of season.
23.) 26 Apr 2024 17:29:30
Zikos is the 6m for tav and goldson? Surely tav worth that by himself.
24.) 26 Apr 2024 17:30:45
Big tel the 6m you mention is that for both goldson and tav. Doesn't seem enough.
25.) 26 Apr 2024 17:32:35
Keep the faith, I'm sure PC/ NK already know how much, and who they want to try n bring in. Also who's out.
26.) 26 Apr 2024 17:45:44
Storm my info transfer fees, signing on fees.
We r very confident as a club we will actually reduce salary paid out next year.
In reality that should be a given
Copland two I know we have met more than once a ch and a midfielder, imo both upgrades.
27.) 26 Apr 2024 17:55:07
25m is a minimum of what’s needed this summer. Hopefully aided with a few sales we can see close to 30m spent. It’s what ange needed in his first two windows. 30m on 4/ 5 players of real quality and then 4/ 5 clever Bosmans and loans. We need to stop spending 2/ 3m on players like matondo.
28.) 26 Apr 2024 19:05:49
Not sure where we are at with Cortes, Diomande, will anything for them come out of the 20-25 mill, big chunk already if so!
Also, a bit sceptical as renewals are due, and time of season where this usually comes up to drum up interest / support.
29.) 26 Apr 2024 19:37:52
Cheers John,
TT are saying clement lied when he said we had no money in jan? We didn’t buy anyone the proof was there in jan we didn’t buy anyone. ?
30.) 26 Apr 2024 20:34:18
We need to reduce our wage bill. we're not getting value for our money.
31.) 26 Apr 2024 20:37:18
I'm sure of the correct type of player was avail in jan we'd have signed him.
32.) 26 Apr 2024 20:44:10
John, you called it right last season regarding budget, hopefully you're right again ?.
33.) 26 apr 2024 20:57:45
explain how that's proof mate, has the cash been found hidden in old murrays locker,
its not proof of anything, except that they didn't want to soend in jan, just like many others, not a good time to buy, especially when you have so many players, summer is the time for incoming, and outgoing, jan is only a pitstop.
34.) 26 Apr 2024 23:07:11
Why would anyone pay £6m for a player who plays in a back four. but can't tackle or stop crosses coming in. Loses his man, gets caught out of position in the transitions and dilly dally's on the ball?
But he scores pens so I suppose he's a player!
35.) 27 Apr 2024 06:58:56
John did we spend 21m? i'm pretty sure the net spend was around 4m and we sold better players to fund that than the ones who came in. Our points tally will also be lower than last year to reflect that.
This time round i don't think there is many players we should worry about leaving and should be fairly easy to improve on the current squad.
36.) 27 Apr 2024 09:02:00
Dado we spent 21 million or our accounts r a fraud.
37.) 27 Apr 2024 10:14:01
Hope we can buy Cortes with the money if true, I think he’s a different player to what we have, we need to spend all over the park which I’m sure people have pointed out and it’s true, 4.3 of that must be already spent on Diomande because that came out the summer budget, so then just over £20 million, I wonder if that would go up if we somehow managed to get the CL.
Like I said the whole of the park will need investment in. I think the majority of any money will get spent in the wings and striker area- just because normally forwards cost more than other position. If we are smart with it get some back to middle players on free’s Jefte for example. That Nils guy likes players from South America I can see a few of them coming.
The CL isn’t beyond us if we recruit well before starting the qualifiers if say worst case scenario we finished second. We were really unlucky to get PSV 2 years running and this years PSV were really good. There were other teams we could have got and maybe get this year who won’t be as hard, all about having a good pre season and good recruitment before hand. By the sounds of Sima and his agent it sounds like he wants to stay, if we can find the money or package to bring him I think we will do that, but out of the players that are end of contract and end of loan it’s only Cortes and Sima I want to stay, which is not saying a lot. And there’s players even on contracts that need to go Scott Wright, Lammers, Davies ect although I think PC will look over Hagi before selling him. He’s never seen him so he can’t just punt him without looking but eventually I do think he will sell him. Interesting tho.
15 Apr 2024 10:24:25
Anyone hearing loan deal Rushworth to Rangers for a year.
1.) 15 Apr 2024 10:48:55
Rushworth the goal keeper?
2.) 15 apr 2024 10:58:18
hope he hurries up john.
3.) 15 apr 2024 11:00:44
goalkeeper john, is butland on the road out?
4.) 15 Apr 2024 11:03:34
Is he not at Swansea on loan?
5.) 15 Apr 2024 11:10:00
Had a nosey there John, not seen anything bud, he's contracted with Brighton to 2025, unless big Davie Weir has input in this.
6.) 15 Apr 2024 11:42:24
Fork my understanding he has just extended till 2028. Yes he is at present on loan at Swansea
App it’s between him Trafford for third goalie in England euro squad.
Tom I’m not sure if Butland will leave, we would be very negligent not to be prepared, also if a bid of around15 million were made imo we would be fools to say no
That’s a yes Azul. We r definitely scouting goalkeepers, we could see three away in summer.
7.) 15 apr 2024 11:53:22
anything close to 10 and jacks away if you ask me john, be very very difficult to keep him if no cl, let's hope for a final push.
8.) 15 Apr 2024 12:12:05
John, I'm just curious mate, if we sold Butland do you think we would try and buy this Rushworth, from what I've seen it would be a good bit business as he suits our trading model. Just the idea of loaning a young lad like that to be second choice if Butland stays seems a strange one in my eyes for Brighton and him.
9.) 15 Apr 2024 12:29:21
Cheers John didn't know he had extended to 2028 bud, could be a gd shout, see as you say Southgate looking at him for Euro's?.
10.) 15 Apr 2024 12:37:25
Young blue rangers won’t be able to afford rushworth, Brighton allegedly value him higher than we value butland
The bar for young English goalies is around 15-20 million.
11.) 15 Apr 2024 12:47:47
Okay cheers John. Also, have you heard anything regards Callum O'Hare and Eduard Spertsyan?
12.) 15 Apr 2024 16:14:50
Striker required as the one currently in use couldn't hit a bison on the arse with a banjo . oh and set Lundstram free to pass to linesmen elsewhere and blame someone else for not marking players he should have, Keeper is far from the future problem V Dingwall he should have only needed a deck chair and cigar rather than at full pelt and having to go up for corners.
13.) 15 Apr 2024 17:03:50
Good goalie John, having a great season.
Definitely scouting goalies. I feel he may have a chance at Brighton next year over Steele.
14.) 15 Apr 2024 18:48:48
Young blue yes re ohare.
We r certainly scouting goalies as a no1.
My grandson reckons rushworth won’t go to Germany in front of Trafford.
15.) 16 Apr 2024 08:25:18
I wouldn't be surprised if a Epl club offered 15 million for Butland.
16.) 16 Apr 2024 15:27:20
Wonder if there's anything in when Forest inquired about him, might they come back in?
17.) 16 Apr 2024 18:17:04
Forkforest can’t afford him in terms of profability and sustainability rules.
18.) 16 Apr 2024 20:55:57
No probs John wasn't aware bud?.
19.) 16 Apr 2024 21:25:52
Let’s be honest sha#er is twice the keeper butland is butland is class but Alan was the goat up there with the best shot stoppers ever imo.
20.) 16 Apr 2024 22:35:12
And a grumpy fecker aswell??.
09 Apr 2024 15:52:36
I'm hearing hibs have offered Dundee Easter rd for Thursday night.
1.) 09 Apr 2024 16:09:27
Happy with that John.
2.) 09 Apr 2024 16:11:54
Thats very kind of them but they can do one. We have a game up dingwall sunday morning.
3.) 09 Apr 2024 16:29:30
Seen Nelms saying 16/ 17th next week, should tell them to do one, Dado is right games meant to be Wednesday not Thursday, a day less for County game, if moved to next week its in the run up to the Hearts game, tell them to feck right off, Wednesday or another ground on Wednesday, or forfeit the points, SFA should be on this but will they?
4.) 09 Apr 2024 16:31:28
Move that game until Monday BigDado.
5.) 09 Apr 2024 16:48:10
Why don’t Rangers offer them Ibrox? Have they forgotten people have got flights, trains, supporters coaches and so on booked and paid for (again)?
6.) 09 Apr 2024 17:12:39
What would happen if we refuse to play on Thursday night? This is not a weather concert, but the fact Dundee don’t have a groundsman or spent a penny on their pitch! Motherwell Boss comments were 100% correct.
7.) 09 Apr 2024 17:24:19
Wednesday or tell them to do one.
8.) 09 Apr 2024 17:26:48
Fork what do sfa have to do with an spfl game.
9.) 09 Apr 2024 17:29:05
Dado we play wed Saturday or Sunday Thursday I don’t see difference.
10.) 09 Apr 2024 17:32:19
Apologies John was on my high horse n gt my association's wrong??.
11.) 09 Apr 2024 18:33:41
lol fork, we can’t play on Tuesday as we play Sunday,
Also semifinal weekend all clubs Ger a week to prepare except us.
12.) 09 Apr 2024 18:54:34
Much rather play Thursday on a football pitch than risk injury Wednesday on a cow field.
13.) 09 Apr 2024 19:12:17
It's currently Wed, Sun, Sun. The problem I have with it is the rangers support who have organised travel getting mucked about again.
14.) 09 Apr 2024 19:42:27
CO2 but Thursday would still be dens park.
15.) 09 Apr 2024 19:58:01
Cheers John?.
16.) 09 Apr 2024 21:23:00
Completely confused now John.
Thought you said Thursday at Easter Road.
17.) 10 Apr 2024 00:35:22
If they can’t field a team again should get played at ibrox.
18.) 10 Apr 2024 00:59:34
Any decision should of been made by now, the SPL knew this would happen over a week ago and should of had another venue picked and ready to go, Sky should of fined them maybe that would of kicked their arse into gear too tell Dundee what is happenig.
19.) 10 Apr 2024 04:20:10
At this stage of the season john the more rest between games the better. A lot of our players look knackered as it is.
20.) 10 Apr 2024 07:37:34
If should now be offered at ibrox aor a 2nil win too gers this is an embarrassing shambles too Scottish football, once yeah coarse it can happen too any team in torrential weather but this park is shambolic, and keeps happening to more than less no conciseness, it should be apoints win too forsaken team, n 3 point took of celtic just incase lol ?lol ?.
21.) 10 Apr 2024 07:49:58
No they offered it to Dundee Dundee rejected it as say it will be played at dens.
The Saturday night before semi would suit them.
22.) 10 Apr 2024 11:45:07
Blue dreamer what would be embarrassing is gifting us a 2-0 they just can’t happen.
23.) 10 Apr 2024 12:03:41
Annoy our friends across the city big time though, but your right Storm, won't happen.
24.) 11 Apr 2024 06:06:07
Agree storm mate it won't, but if this was celtic this was happening too, genuinely honest question ? do we belive 1 the conciquences would be the same, 2, they would get away with it so easyilly, also if in england persay a skysports live game, it would be a totally diffrent outcome , why should us asa team, plus fans accept this twice, its tottally shambolic n showing the scottish game up, n we wonder why oup sponcer deals are so low, this is exactly the reason guys.
25.) 11 Apr 2024 06:06:32
TV sponsorship I mean sorry ?.
08 Sep 2023 13:05:38
Rangers have received two offers from Turkey.
One for wright which has been accepted, he may go talk to them Sunday
One for yilmaz, a loan, rangers want loan to buy
Also told interest from turkey for Barisic but no offer as yet.
1.) 08 Sep 2023 13:18:42
Can we still sign free agents?
2.) 08 Sep 2023 13:41:15
Think so.
3.) 08 Sep 2023 13:46:24
Yes Davie we can.
4.) 08 Sep 2023 13:54:16
Davie, yes, but why squad too big.
5.) 08 Sep 2023 14:05:46
Yes John it's a problem for the manager he's tried to shift more and had no luck.
6.) 08 Sep 2023 14:13:42
Mext two windows we need to shift at least 8, that’s b4 we look at who we signed this window.
7.) 08 Sep 2023 14:20:43
I was reasonably happy with yilmaz at the end of last season, think he just needs a run of games.
8.) 08 Sep 2023 14:39:04
I'd definitely keep Yilmaz. Talk Sport talking again this afternoon of Eustace to Rangers.
9.) 08 Sep 2023 14:46:20
Burt I would not get rid of yilmas unless he is doing a Colak.
10.) 08 Sep 2023 14:54:27
Is Yilmaz himself not settled, John27?
Or do Rangers themselves see his career too stop / start with us and are prepared to cut their losses?
11.) 08 Sep 2023 15:17:27
If there’s any interest in yilmaz who’s only in the door
And it’s a loan to buy
Obviously we want rid of him
This smacks of a disaster
Especially if barasic goes also
What’s actually happening at our club.
12.) 08 Sep 2023 15:22:06
Would Yilmaz be leaving us short at full back or does Beale have trust in Devine/ Yfeko?
13.) 08 Sep 2023 15:25:07
Great info John thanks again mate
Any idea on the fee involved for wright? And even what we’d be wanting for yilmaz in the obligation?
I think if Beale is to stay he will need to move on some of his own signings before next season starts, I can’t see dessers and Danilo. Both stil being here start of next season, I think one stays and plays and one moves on, I think the big lad fae Norwich will be gone by next season starting, lammers also may be moved on again.
A lot of these signings might need moved on.
14.) 08 Sep 2023 15:40:31
The Yilmaz rumour simply won't go away and I have heard on a number of occasions, the latest this week, that he is wanted by Besiktas, his previous club as well as Galatasaray and Fernabahce.
The interest from Besiktas and Fernabahce comes from folks that are linked to their perspective football clubs. (Both clubs were interested early in the Scottish Transfer window. At that time Besiktas wanted a loan deal and Fernabahce were interested in a straight purchase although my understanding was that they were undervaluing the player) .
I haven't heard Wright's name linked with any of these Clubs.
15.) 08 Sep 2023 15:52:02
Lammers needs a shout as a striker big lad good in the air good feet, he isn't what Beale is using him as . Sima is a headless chicken and Danilo unfortunately is wrapped in cotton wool for some reason by the manager.
16.) 08 Sep 2023 16:18:36
To be be Davie that's not a bad shout.
17.) 08 Sep 2023 16:30:43
Ravers how is it a disaster all the experts want rid of both players
Wright to club he has already met twice.
18.) 08 Sep 2023 16:42:48
Same as Hagi . don't want Yilmaz to leave. He should be starting games asap.
19.) 08 Sep 2023 17:02:39
John I’m referring to yilmaz
We pay x amount then a loan to buy the lads just in the door so someone doesn’t see him staying
Then there’s barasic if he goes
That’s a disaster
So who we playing there
Sterling is out of position
Yfeko still learning some say he’s good others not so
(Shakes head) in frustration.
20.) 08 Sep 2023 17:03:25
As744 aye maybe mate and I did hear Danilo was fairly quick so why not right side for a wee trial . Matondo, Lammers and Danilo switching around at will may make the opposition dizzy I'm thinking.
But I still don't know who Will is TBH.
21.) 08 Sep 2023 17:18:17
Why would we want to sell both Barasic and Yilmaz?
If the rumours are true this would leave us short of cover at LB, as both Devine and Sterling are right sided players.
The only other left sided defenders we have in our squad are Davies, King, and Yefeko?
Another tough decision for MB.
22.) 08 Sep 2023 17:20:34
John we may have a big squad but or defence is lacking quality especially in the art of defending some fans now making excuses because players playing left CB etc… we need a new defence pronto.
23.) 08 Sep 2023 17:31:48
Oh right ravers u now worried about players u run down and want rid off. Archive a great read.
I can’t see both being allowed to leave but not bothered with them constantly feigning injury.
24.) 08 Sep 2023 17:31:56
I think one of the other may leave and going by Beale this season it would likely be yilmaz.
25.) 08 Sep 2023 17:35:52
My auld uncle was insistent there should be no left footers at Ibrox, he was off his nut though eventually.
26.) 08 Sep 2023 17:49:58
Eustace's record for Birmingham is worse than MB's was for QPR, let's hope Bennett and Bisgrove have got a contingency plan in place a poor result against St Johnstone and I think there's no way back for Michael Beale. several of the summer signings when they were first interviewed by the press talked about being impressed with Michael Beale's playing philosophy! and that was a big reason why they signed for Rangers perhaps some of these players now feel they were conned by MB.
27.) 08 Sep 2023 17:50:01
So, we are thinking of letting Yilmaz and Barisic go to Turkey . Is this part of a new tactical plan to play without a left back or like we did on Sunday with no left footers in the side at all . As for reducing the squad by 8 . The squad is currently 23 plus two youngsters and McLaughlin and Wright who both do need to go . Why would we take 8 players out of a 27 man squad, that would leave us barely enough to fill the bench.
28.) 08 Sep 2023 17:59:46
John I have never ran down any mentioned
I can’t run yilmaz he’s hardly kicked a ball
As for barasic well half this site agree his time
Should have been up a long time ago
I will praise players like others I’ll also stick up for those being slated and I’ll run those down like everyone else on this site it’s only an individual opinion.
29.) 08 Sep 2023 18:04:09
I’d quite like to see Danilo and Roofe play together, and just stick with it. No more chopping and changing every time we play. So they could get used to each other. Although Roofe would have to stay fit which is not garenteed.
Lawrence can play wide left. So that’s a option there. These are things I’d like to see I’m not saying it’s the answer or anything.
But one thing that is bothering me is Dessers getting constantly picked over Danilo. He was the so called big signing yet just sits on the bench. I would love someone to ask Beale wtf is going on there- it’s making me tthink something isn’t right there. It just seems strange to me. Just my thoughts.
30.) 08 Sep 2023 18:26:09
Stormtrooper . we've needed a new defence for a long long time. The fact our club haven't recognised this is why they are the completly the wrong people moving forward. I honestly can't belive we didn't strengthen defensively especially at R and L back and don't get me started on our lack of width!
31.) 08 Sep 2023 18:32:03
MrRangers87, I agree with you reg Roofe and Danilo. I want to see players playing in their natural position. I'm convinced Beale isn't the manager to get the best from these players.
32.) 08 Sep 2023 18:43:40
Lawerance is first name on team sheet for me when fully match fit.
33.) 08 Sep 2023 18:44:04
Your right mr rangers
Danilo was the flagship signing
Only to sit on the subs bench
It’s absolutely wild.
34.) 08 Sep 2023 19:15:19
Danilo should be starting as main striker cannot understand that so obviously carrying knock not settled or something. Scott Wright is better option than sima lammers etc yilmaz can go couple games little promise then takes an injury.
35.) 08 Sep 2023 19:54:54
Yes let’s sell one left back and loan the other out! Why no add to the growing list of stupid decisions! Ridvan should be starting every game not loaned out! He has so much potential and we’ve ruined him! Turkish number 1 left back before we signed him! Can’t even get in the team now!
36.) 08 Sep 2023 21:07:40
If we are looking at Eustace then ? I'd rather try give Beale time.
Why do we jump from rookie manager to rookie manager do we never learn meanwhile Celtic go with proven records like Rodgers Ange and win titles.
37.) 08 Sep 2023 21:58:07
Wslgers. First I’ve said enquiries. We may say no.
Yes eight, over next two windows, not tonight.
McLaughlin
Barisic
Jack
Hagi
Davies Steve
Lundstrum
Ben Davies
Mb yilmas. I’d keep
Matondo
Then many on here want rid Dessers, Lammers, sima et al
So another rebuild yes.
38.) 09 Sep 2023 07:30:22
Beale needs to find his best starting 11 and soon and then stick with it. With all this pressure mounting on him I'd say he still doesn't have a clue and that's really the crux of the issue. He's not got faith in his marquee signing (what's going on in the background as that's just weird) and can't decide who the other main two attackers are. The midfield should pick itself in my opinion; Raskin, Cantwell and Cifuentes. The defence needed more of a refresh but it's been overlooked and Harry Souter would have been a great addition but left too late to do anything as at that point it relied on other outgoings - defence should have been as much a priority as upfront was deemed to be.
39.) 09 Sep 2023 08:08:36
I don’t know regarding yilmaz. Rumours not going away is he wanting to go home? Personally I’d keep him till January see if he can string some games together and find form. At least that way we can bring in a replacement.
40.) 09 Sep 2023 08:23:57
“ defence should have been as much a priority as upfront was deemed to be. ” - Last season Rangers conceded only 3 goals more than Celtic. However, we scored over 20+ less. Also, at the end of last season we lost two key attacking assets in Kent and Morelos for free.
We went into the summer with the firm intention of strengthening that forward line, and we did. The manager tried to get Trusty but we were priced out. He’s brought in Stirling who gives us a more defensive full-back to go up against guys like Abada. Beale also brought us another Keeper who looks to be the best in the country. I’m a massive fan of McCrorie but there’s no question Butland is the real deal.
But yeah, we had to buy forwards, and we did. I know everyone on here has already written off every new forwards. However, I’m confident Danilo will score 20+ this season. I think Dessers was desperately unluckily with that VAR decision last weekend after some fantastic work to create a goal out of nothing. Sima was ripping it up a few years ago and is still only 22 I don't think we’ve seen anything close to what he’s capable of yet. Lammers has all the right attributes physically and technically, we’ll need to wait and see what his numbers are like over time.
We won't know how good this team can be if we break it apart a few weeks after it was put together.
41.) 09 Sep 2023 11:58:10
I agree Verdant, Lammers up top with Danilo or Dessers feeding off him . All three have got to be given a chance .
42.) 09 Sep 2023 12:18:46
John27, you said that squad is too big and that we would need to shift at least 8 before even looking at the new signings who should be dumped. I thought this was how the club was looking at it not just your opinion which is fair enough. I don`t think a squad of 25 is too big but obviously if guys like Jack, Barisic and Lundstram go because their deals are done then we will need to replace them . Please stop including Davis as a viable member of the squad, we are helping him to rehab but surely his days as a Rangers player are over . He was done before he got the injury and would surely have been freed in the summer. If he gets back in the team then it really is time to give up . I don`t care how good he is in the dressing room we need players to play on the pitch.
43.) 09 Sep 2023 12:39:56
I agree John27, squad is too big I would go with a squad of 20, shame about Steve Davis, but his age and injury is against him, great servant for Rangers and NI.
44.) 09 Sep 2023 12:51:32
You should take your own advice u give verdant, read or check google
Re Davies our present manager stated two weeks ago in a live press conference that he hopes to give Davies a deal soon, I agree with u but am quoting the manager.
45.) 09 Sep 2023 13:01:24
Getting fed up with the same old issues re left back situation - whether Barasic injured or Yilmaz injured or whether both at it potentially? - just get Devine in there imo and give the boy a decent run in the side - he has never let us down and we need our own boys to come through and step up to the plate - we need some identity in this team and players who know what it means to play for the jersey.
Beale no doubt scared to do this as heard his old soundbites re youth - but still waiting to see any of our young lads get in regularly.
46.) 09 Sep 2023 13:30:27
John27 trust or believe our manager really!
?????
Funny I distinctly remember telling everyone we need to move people on before we signed anyone with everyone else saying we would sign 1 maybe 2 ?
Beale needs to stop thinking he's pep and stop changing the lineup every game football is not that hard you get a team that wins you stick by that team until you get a loss or injury.
And maybe try playing your most expensive signing rather than benching him ?
Just a thought ?.
47.) 09 Sep 2023 13:31:55
Blue Floyd ?????100% devine should get chance.
48.) 09 Sep 2023 14:09:56
A settled 11 should well and truly be in place by now
I agree with @goforbigcf2.
49.) 09 Sep 2023 14:22:59
Yilmaz and BB will not be leaving at this rate we would have to go back to the transfer market to replace them surely the club isn't that stupid.
50.) 09 Sep 2023 19:37:10
Scott wright isn’t a better option than anyone.
04 Sep 2023 14:27:30
Copland5, Iheard, ibrox 4 me or anyone
Have u guys picked up we can terminate Beale contract within a year off appointment with 500k pay off.
If true Wilson should get a knighthood.
1.) 04 Sep 2023 14:43:11
John ? clearly not good enough
And for once please rangers go with a manager that has plenty of experience.
2.) 04 Sep 2023 14:45:09
News to me John. Would be a sensible clause in any managerial appointment nowadays. You think there is legs in that? Would the Board act?
3.) 04 Sep 2023 14:58:18
We’re on a break so do it now not later now please ?.
4.) 04 Sep 2023 15:01:02
Ibrox it makes a lot of sense after Gio, who actually negotiated a pay off and not the full payment he could have pushed for
It would equate to six months of Beale salary
If it was true board May act giving he was not bennet choice.
5.) 04 Sep 2023 15:27:50
Very much doubt the board would act anyway. Think he’ll be here til January at least. He has to win league cup, qualify out of the group in Europe and be no further behind Celtic in the league at the very least to keep his job at January.
6.) 04 Sep 2023 15:37:30
Hope you’re right John.
7.) 04 Sep 2023 15:49:31
If, and it's a big if, Beale was sacked who would we want guys?
Also, if anyone knows, who was Bennets choice if it wasn't Beale?
8.) 04 Sep 2023 15:50:37
If indeed this clause is there surely the board will act you can all hear what the supporters think at FT on Sunday and once you loose the support it’s very difficult to win them back, so if the board don’t act now and the clause passes and performances don’t improve it’s only going to get worse I’m old enough to have sat inside Ibrox with 15000 at the game punters voted with their feet and I fear it will happen again, I’m not in favour of changing managers to often but I’ve said on here before the style of football we are watching is boring I was brought up watching wingers entertaining the fans this depending on full backs to create width is not for me our full backs are not good enough for that as we give the ball away to often exposing our CBs we need to sort our defence out it’s our week link.
9.) 04 Sep 2023 16:05:22
Jesus John, I don’t think I’ve been this excited by rumour in the last 10 years. Please let this be true and please let the board act now.
10.) 04 Sep 2023 16:06:30
Not heard anything about this John. Thanks for sharing regardless.
11.) 04 Sep 2023 16:08:10
If that is the case he is gone. why would we wait any longer.
12.) 04 Sep 2023 16:09:54
Afternoon all! If this info is true John the. It is a very astute price of business by Wilson. I agree this day and age we should be looking at clauses like this or rolling contracts going forward especially for untested managerial appointments.
13.) 04 Sep 2023 16:10:05
“we need to sort our defence out it’s our week link. ” - One could argue that our full-backs are our biggest attacking threat. The two highest all-time scorers currently at the club are James Tavernier and Borna Barisic. The amount of goals they create is just as impressive.
Our attacking full-backs is one of the few aspect of our team that actually works well. If we remove that we’re will the attacking impetus come from? Will Stirling drive us up the pitch? How bad and unexciting will the football be then?
People constantly complain about Tavernier but as soon as Stirling goes in there watch the script flip. People will express constant frustration at the lack of attacking ability because, after all, we dominate the vast majority of the games we play.
14.) 04 Sep 2023 16:20:36
Made my day john as you are not someone to put that out there without a degree of substances. Nothing against beale but he's out of his depth anyone of us would take the job amd be in the same state. I don't think he's the kind of man who'd know when to walk away so a wee push is needed.
15.) 04 Sep 2023 16:26:58
Fingers crossed it’s true and they trigger the guy is never a rangers manager.
16.) 04 Sep 2023 16:29:15
just imagine he turned it around and won the league and got a decent run in Europa HAHAHAHAHA.
17.) 04 Sep 2023 16:33:53
If ever there was a rumour we hope is true, surely it has to be this one. the man is a charlatan and has talked himself into this job.
18.) 04 Sep 2023 16:35:57
The fact that our full backs are our biggest attacking threat is part of the problem.
Beale did not address or poor defence but spent the money on improving our attacking threat.
Now we have no attacking threat and our defence is still hopeless.
19.) 04 Sep 2023 16:51:47
Verdun we buy a front line that will do the task. We allow someone else to take penalties. Honestly take away your full backs where’s your threat. That your argument.
20.) 04 Sep 2023 16:55:50
Celtic are only one or two results away from a league winning points gap. If we try to change manager and backroom staff now, less than a week after the transfer window has closed, the disruption could hand Celtic the title. The most logical and pragmatic thing to do is stick with the man we have and see if he delivers. If a change needs to be made do it next summer.
If a new manager is brought in now you’ll all want him sacked by the time the end of the season comes anyway because Celtic won. People will say that's not the case, but it is. When Pedro came in Rangers we’re 20 points behind Celtic and everyone said he would be judged on next season. But by the time the summer came the movement to have him sacked was already in full swing. One bad result the following season and we’re ripping everything up and starting all over again. Round and round we go….
21.) 04 Sep 2023 17:06:04
He was appointed in November from what I remember so I guess we don't have a lot of time to decide assuming the rumour is true however since talk on the Forum has been Christmas, November still gives him plenty of time to prove that he has what it takes and not too far away from January to give his replacement an opportunity to bring in defensive recruits come January.
Although I wasn't Wilson's biggest fan in terms of player recruitment he certainly could not be criticised for his ability to secure a good result in outgoing transfers and given that he most likely knew that Bisgrove and Bennett were taking over the Top Jobs in the Club I can definitely believe that such a clause would be inserted in Beale's contract and Beale is such an arrogant character that he would probably have gone with it.
I live in hope!
22.) 04 Sep 2023 17:24:57
Posted this earlier don't see it, I would talk to G Potter and Billy Reid now just to see if they were at all interested.
If Potter isn't I would like to see Billy as chief scout .

How bad and unexciting will the football be then?
Are you serious our play is bad and not exciting since he came in bar 3 games and one them didn’t matter.
25.) 04 Sep 2023 17:28:13
I was unsure of Beales appointemnt, but fully prepared to back him when he came, and to be fair he did well in that first part season. We have recruited some good players this summer and most of us were very excited about seeing the team come off the blocks flying, kaboom. The last two games have seriously dented moral but I believe that we have to give Beale a chance to show what his new squad can do. The alternative is to replace him with yet another manager working with someone elses squad, and then spit the dummy out if it doesn't suddenly work. I think we need to Give Beale to Christmas and pray he has us in the mix on all fronts.
26.) 04 Sep 2023 18:03:09

27.) 04 Sep 2023 18:08:17
John, this is a rumour which I hope is true. Beale has to go, Simply not good enough.
28.) 04 Sep 2023 18:13:46
Verdant ; that is my point our full backs are pushing up the park and if the ball is lost there are huge gaps left behind then either a midfielder or a defender are pulled over to plug that gap, I sit in the Sandy Jardine rear and look down on the pitch you can see teams playing balls into that spaces so our defence is weak, if we’re going to play that way I’d rather see a back three to help cover we give the ball away to often.
29.) 04 Sep 2023 18:16:08
Verdant I'll give you your dues, your relentless in defending these performances.
30.) 04 Sep 2023 18:16:39
BizzmyBrox, what good players have we recruited this summer? Butland yes, Dessers, Lammers and Sima have been hopeless . Cifuentes may be good but not in the role he is playing, Danilo can`t get a start and Sterling, Balogun and Dowell are bench warmers . We only signed one player ( Cifuentes) who was doing anything at their previous clubs and we are seeing why .
31.) 04 Sep 2023 18:30:44
Don’t you want beale to stay john?
32.) 04 Sep 2023 18:42:46
There was a lot of excitement on this very forum to most of these players arriving, I say give them a chance.
33.) 04 Sep 2023 19:05:40
If Beale gets sacked I want Kevin Muscat in.
34.) 04 Sep 2023 19:14:52
Twacoos - I’ve been watching Tavernier and Barisic for many years, mate. I know exactly what they bring. We need their ability to go forward and create and score goals. Without our attacking full-backs there would be no width, or attack to speak of.
When we get attackers who are banging them in from all angles then we can talk about swapping out the attacking full-backs for defensive ones. Until then, it’s not going to happen. The attacking full-backs are far too valuable going forward; especially in Scotland where we dominate possession and need full-backs who are good on the ball. Tavernier and Barisic contribute 30+ goals and assists a season. Do they cost us 30+ goals a season? No. Our fullbacks do a lot more god than bad.
Also, put Sterling in there at RB and see how long it takes for 50k fans at Ibrox to get frustrated at the fact he's not getting up the pitch as much, his delivery is poor, etc.
35.) 04 Sep 2023 19:30:02
As bad as it is how bad is it?
Ok out CL and trail them by 4 points
Beale can turn this around
This break has came at the right time
The players signed some have showed up some better than others, it’s a settled 11 we need
I’m going to keep positive despite poor results and performances.
36.) 04 Sep 2023 19:32:35
I’m not against relieving MB of his duties ASAP.
I’m all for standing by managers and think Gio deserved to be given more time but that’s history now.
It’s very difficult to defend MB based on the performances I’ve witnessed this season and I just can’t work out what the playing style or football identity of our club is.
John do you have any info that we’re any closer to appointing a DOF as I was led to believe part of his brief would be to oversee all the age groups so that they all approach training and games with a view to playing with the same style and identity that the first team do in order to make it easier for them to develop through the age groups.
I’m sure I recall someone from the board stating that having a Rangers identity and playing style would lead to less disruption when first team managers are moved on and lead to more seamless transition.
I’m asking because as we don’t have a clear playing style at the moment has this idea been binned or am I mistaken altogether.
37.) 04 Sep 2023 19:44:09
Verdant we didn't need them for years before they were here there is always someone else
It's just finding them
People are right Tav and goldson think they are undroppable and have no reason to work on Thier game Tav is the same player that got slaughtered by Anthony stokes and people still expect him to be able to defend against better players it's baffling ?.
38.) 04 Sep 2023 20:21:41
We have to sack Beale NOW and go all out and get Graham Potter. A top class manager who done very well with Brighton and plays attractive football. After Chelsea he is looking to rebuild his reputation and I feel we are a great suit for him. Bring him in with Billy Reid as he knows the SPL very well from his time with Hamilton Accies.
39.) 04 Sep 2023 20:30:44
The man can't work out 3 at the back and he's had plenty time to do so also playing a guy at left back who would have fallen on his arse if he tried to use his left leg was ridiculous, jeez even Ralston was made to look good later on and that's near impossible.
Whatever gobskitter Rodgers say's his CB's were diddies and we could do nothing against them.
The biggest nonsense however is not starting Danilo, did he sign him because something ain't right there. Regular with Dutch champs and Mick sits him on the bench .
40.) 04 Sep 2023 20:41:22
I don't think a Rangers manager survices a fan reaction like that ibrox, kilmarnock away was bad enough, the way people were talking about him in the stands was shocking then, ibrox on sunday was as bad as i can remember, possibly big ecks final couple of games.
41.) 04 Sep 2023 20:42:59
I think we need someone with experience of the league and knows what the club is about.
42.) 04 Sep 2023 20:51:49
Gazgers I said that earlier, Potter has worked in Sweden so Scotland shouldn't worry him, Billy Reid has spotted many players here and with Brighton it's ideal if it can be done, both not attached to clubs at present . They made a mistake going to Chelsea everyone does.
43.) 04 Sep 2023 21:10:18
Really hope that is true and the board act over the international break, in my eyes this is different from Gio as he at least had some successes to point to for some credit in the bank with supporters. This guy has given us nothing to suggest that he is the man for the job.
He has failed in every remotely important game for the club, the playing style is completely non existent and he is incapable of making a tactical tweak or substitute to change a game that's slipping away from us. The forwards that he has brought in have decent goalscoring records elsewhere and i don't believe that they have became bad players almost overnight since joining rangers, a decent manager with experience will get that forward line scoring i'm confident of that. Do the right thing rangers and get shot of this pretender while we are still in all 3 competitions.
44.) 04 Sep 2023 21:24:19
On top of my last post i said at the time we hired him that i didn't like how he conducted himself when Gio was toiling towards the end, hovering about ibrox like a bad smell hoping people would notice him. Not how a rangers manager conducts himself at all or any decent human for that matter, guy is a total con man. Get rid.
45.) 04 Sep 2023 21:40:45
If true what we waiting for! He’s lost the plot!
46.) 04 Sep 2023 22:59:19

47.) 04 Sep 2023 23:04:11
Let's not forget this guy was after players that clubs like Swansea don't want, that's insulting.
48.) 04 Sep 2023 23:25:22
The job won’t interest Potter, Billy would def try and persuade him though. They will be back in a prem league job very soon I reckon. on a side note Potter plays a system not too dissimilar to Beale albeit with 3 at the back and with width coming from his FB’s and a box of 4 with 1 CF. He doesn’t use wingers but has rotations like what Beale is trying to implement. He’s def not an attacking pressing coach imho.
49.) 05 Sep 2023 00:06:56
Nice one man! Xx.
50.) 05 Sep 2023 00:41:23

51.) 05 Sep 2023 06:02:24
Verdant a blind man could see after a couple of games we had made a horrendous error with Pedro, so no wonder we were wanting him out that summer but no we kept him on and the rest i'd history, we kept GVB to long last year as well, keeping him opened up a gap we couldn't close and we run the same risk this year with Beale.
52.) 05 Sep 2023 06:39:16
Honestly don't think potter is a great choice for us. He doesn't play much different to how we try to play ATM. His team's sit deep and defend in a 532 and then in position it turns into a 3421 two 10s.
When Chelsea started to struggle he panicked and went to a 433 and things just got worse.
He's a great manager and certainly his short Chelsea tenure shouldn't tarnish his career but to come here right after that Chelsea gig and when fans see us not change style. It would become toxic quick.
Personally don't think Beale gets sacked but regardless what happens we need so much more from our midfield as it's been non existent outside the first half of the PSV game this season.
{Ed001's Note - none of that is true about Potter. He plays multiple formations and changes them within games as well. And he doesn't usually sit deep and defend, that was the problem at Chelsea as the team had been drilled to do that and he wanted them to push up higher.}
53.) 05 Sep 2023 07:51:25
John, surprised at you, what happened to “thick and thin”.
54.) 05 Sep 2023 07:56:08
I'm not a Beale fan and never really was from the start as I never believed we played much different than under Gio. but if this rumour is true then how does this look to potential new managers? We seem to be turning into an Abramovich Chelsea (without the money) sacking managers every 6 months or so when its not working. We need to actual see a project through and give a manager time to build and sadly maybe sacrifice a season or 2. Or we need to burst the bank and literally get a manager in give him like £40million and take a huge risk to make the champions league a few seasons in a row.
55.) 05 Sep 2023 08:17:15
Potter and Reid are a team, Billy would fancy Rangers so ask the question, Ostersund, Swansea and Brighton ain't Glasgow Rangers and Potter went to them taking Billy to all of them.
56.) 05 Sep 2023 08:40:39
Even with £40m, what good players are going to come to play in Scotland? When they can double their money elsewhere.
No actually plays for the jersey.
57.) 05 Sep 2023 09:15:44
All I am going to say is be careful what you wish for. Nobody has come up with a replacement who in my opinion will be any better than Beale. Potter had a good track record at small clubs but got his fingers burnt when he went to a big club. Seen some folk mentioning Lampard which hopefully is a joke. And gimme a break if you are thinking about Sam Allardyce! The likes of Muscat, untried at any decent level. I can't see any decent candidate at the moment.
58.) 05 Sep 2023 09:47:46
Brighton are not a small club now and Potter/ Reid made them a big club, it was miraculous . Ostersund were a tiny club in a low division and the same guys lifted them to respectability in European competition. Not a decent candidate? is it Jesus you want? Many have failed at Chelsea and many more will also fail.
59.) 05 Sep 2023 09:49:09
What’s wrong with big Sam do the bouncy?
60.) 05 Sep 2023 10:02:52
Bankie what do you mean, I’m reporting a rumour, where do I suggest I want him sacked, not once have I said change the manager.
I would keep him till at least next season, probably at least two years.
61.) 05 Sep 2023 11:05:07
In response to the above nonsense, Brighton have become a big club since Potter left. Undeniable fact. Big Sam is a fire fighting mercenary who has dinosaur type views on football, 100% not what we need right now. And back to Davie, Jesus died 2000 years ago, he never managed a football team, so no I don't want him to be our manager. Any other ridiculous suggestions you would like to put forward?
62.) 05 Sep 2023 11:26:32
Beale should be given the year to win the league, as should any managerial appointment. He knows what it takes, and has proven he can take a team on a run of consecutive victories in the SPL. The early signs and performances this season aren’t good, that I agree with, but what guarantee is there by changing the manager at this stage? We will still have the same group of players that the majority of people on this page were raving about just weeks ago. 4 points behind and 6 points from 12 is a terrible start, but it was clear the manager hasn’t found his best 11/ 14, and trying to find solutions within games, which inevitably is costly. I, though in the majority support Beale up until the next OF game……. If we fall further behind in the league, game over and he should do the honourable thing and resign.
63.) 05 Sep 2023 11:30:32
Exactly the reason big dam would be a good option IF we wanted to get rid of Beale. His experience of coming into a club at short notice, organising the defence and grinding out results would be exactly what we need to steady the ship. The quality of football becomes secondary in importance if we are winning. The reasons u give for not wanting Sam are the reasons he would be an excellent appointment.
Fire fighting mercenary?
I suppose all other managers just come to rangers for their live of the club?
Please!
Fite fighting is exactly what we need.
64.) 05 Sep 2023 11:34:54
Personally I would keep Beale till next transfer window at least. We were robbed of a perfectly good goal, and it was the opening goal which is crucial in these games as only twice in the past 60 has the team opening the scoring lost the game. We shouldn’t just accept it and say well we still had time to turn it around as over the 90 there wasn’t much in it when all the pressure and expectations was on Rangers.
I’m not saying it’s acceptable but I don’t think it makes sense to sack him and bring in someone else to work with his players.
Can he win league cup? Can he qualify out of Europa Group? Can he close gap in league? These questions are yet to be answered and if the answer is no to any of these questions then pull the trigger but not now.

We want to give Wilson a Knighthood for being able to sack Beale with minimum compensation . He picked the guy in the first place and if he is deemed sackable after less than a year then that was a bad mistake by Wilson . His second, having appointed GVB and then sacking him after a year or so, that's without talking about the players he brought in that have either left again or simply can`t get into the first team . Forest are welcome to him .

Verdant is Michael Beale. Defending in indefensible. Honestly, mate take off the blue tints. He is utterly out his depth, the longer he stays the more damage he will do. He needs relieved now, not when (and it will be) it's worse. 88% of fans on this site want him gone. The horse is dead mate you can stop flogging it.

Wslgers4ever, how do you know that it was Wilson that picked Michael Beale. Parks was still dictating things was he not when Beale was appointed.

The team that started that game should have been able to win, county had never beat us.
Very lethargic for whatever reason.
1.) 14 Apr 2024 14:46:52
Correct John think it’s over now can’t see us winning every game.
2.) 14 Apr 2024 14:48:06
John I think the manager done great to get us into this position but when the pressure really counts we have players with no heart. Simple until they go we won't win another title.
3.) 14 Apr 2024 15:29:21
John27, agree but I thought Sterling would have started at LB and Lawrence alongside Lundstram.
No urgency and along with the defeat v Motherwell it must rank as our worst performance under PC.
Fair play to Ross County but this defeat has left us with a mountain to climb in our quest for the league title.
14 Apr 2024 11:08:55
Good team. Surprised after the experts last week saying Goldson won't play, Barisic will never play again and we have seen silva for the last time.
I like his front three.
1.) 14 Apr 2024 11:34:00
i would say BB should not play again
until league won hope he proves me wrong Goldson is getting much slower
as for silva well he just has to play football and forget the diving.
2.) 14 Apr 2024 11:35:21
I like the front 3 and even the midfield, defence is brutal, rangers win RBTTS I think.
3.) 14 Apr 2024 11:37:02
Not surprised with Barisic and Silvas play acting was probably down to most of the frustrations.
Good to see Dowell in, he gives a goal threat from midfield, Thought we may have seen Balogun today but three points is all that matters.
4.) 14 Apr 2024 11:39:23
It's all about opinions John. Good team? Not for me.
5.) 14 Apr 2024 11:39:42
Also Roofe on Bench, may get last 10 mins, before he goes of injured again.
6.) 14 Apr 2024 11:51:58
Sorry John what experts are you referring to about goldson barasic and silva?
7.) 14 Apr 2024 12:49:23
Go read the posts last two weeks especially re Barisic.
10 Apr 2024 15:55:14
Off again farcical.
1.) 10 Apr 2024 15:59:39
What an embarrassment, it’s like school football.
Our top tier league being shamed once again, we are trying to win the league and to be messed about to this extent is shocking.
2.) 10 Apr 2024 16:01:12
The game should be moved immediately to a neutral venue.
3.) 10 Apr 2024 16:10:51
You not think we should just be awarded 3 points
Or at very least it just gets played at Ibrox and we can get the game out the way.
4.) 10 Apr 2024 16:11:47
My 5 year old could organise better than this bunch of useless tools. A total farce!
5.) 10 Apr 2024 16:24:34
A joke was looking fwd to it, ah well PSG/ BARCA game likely.
6.) 10 Apr 2024 16:27:20
It’s embarrassing, John.
Yesterday they announced losses of £2.8 million this season and expect the same again as they spent big to gain promotion.
And yet they don’t even have a ground staff team on the books.
We quite rightly criticise Livi and Killie for the state of their pitches but here’s a club that has had 5 postponements this season due to an unplayable pitch.
Terrible for a Scottish game and we wonder why we get the sh%t TV deal.
7.) 10 Apr 2024 16:38:13
I honetly think it suits us to have the game called off.
8.) 10 Apr 2024 16:49:44
The SPFL should decree that the game should be played at Ibrox, either that or award us the 3 points.
9.) 10 Apr 2024 16:51:36
I don't mark, now 3 teams have a clear week to prefer for a semi final and we don't. Not a level playing field in more than one sense.
10.) 10 Apr 2024 17:48:27
We ain’t getting awarded the points why would anyone even think like that.
11.) 10 Apr 2024 18:37:41
More chance of seeing Elvis riding Shergar on the moon, the stig ?.
12.) 10 Apr 2024 19:10:52
Jfm, I was thinking of players getting injured. you make a valid point reg cup fixture.
13.) 10 Apr 2024 19:36:22
Jfm's spot on about the hearts game, it's ridiculous, SFA and SPFL corrupt 2 feck, n the Tims think they're being cheated, w.t.h. is this then?
07 Apr 2024 21:12:23
Lammers another two tonight.
1.) 07 Apr 2024 22:30:50
Hope lammers continues to score for utrecht John227? Then hopefully we can sell him to them as he's just not suited to scottish football ?.
2.) 07 Apr 2024 22:34:48
6 goals 3 assists in his last 5 game's then, even if they can't sign him sws, be other choices available for him, maybe make a pound or two.
3.) 08 Apr 2024 05:47:51
Hope silence of the lams never gets seen again but onistly probably better than Silva? lunny time to move on fed up with a wee move forward or pass forward people are creaming there pants Barron for free build him up get wage down n let diamante play football fed up us turning players into sideway bitches, don't rate raskin tbh but he's turned into a shell cannot look upty lunny should be playing lunny out the team at that age if that's not in his head move on.
4.) 08 Apr 2024 06:17:25
Dutch football is Scotland with nice weather n pitches good watch a few games it's dug meat think psv have bets on win both teams to score, remember that Bayern player people fot was not good enough for rangers? same as hearts loan player Simmons or something killing it, am bullin drunk but that first half shocking Al need to watch it again was it us good 2nd half or them sitting back hewcares roll on Wednesday off to sleep till then?.
5.) 08 Apr 2024 08:20:19
I don't think we'll have any difficulty finding a buyer for Lammers in the summer. turned out to be a very good loan for both parties.
07 Apr 2024 10:56:50
No Yilmaz. Wright starts.
1.) 07 Apr 2024 11:08:13
Lawrence in ahead of Cantwell.
2.) 07 Apr 2024 11:09:01
Yilmaz not training with squad always told me he was out. Surprised at Lawrence over Cantwell and Wright starting.
3.) 07 Apr 2024 11:14:13
Hope the manager knows what he's doing, a right back playing at left back when an international left backs on the bench, our most creative player in cantwell on the bench and silva ahead of sima, he's either a hero at the end of this game or potentially leaving himself open to a fair bit of criticism.
27 Apr 2024 09:02:00
Dado we spent 21 million or our accounts r a fraud.
26 Apr 2024 17:52:47
Many missing the point re tav and Goldson, first only worth what someone will pay, I’d take 5 million each, but to have their wages to reinvest massive
Tav 1.5 million plus x two years
Goldson 1.7 million x two years
That is over 6 million.
Also PC clear no players in his time at rangers will see out contracts, reiterated this today.
26 Apr 2024 17:45:44
Storm my info transfer fees, signing on fees.
We r very confident as a club we will actually reduce salary paid out next year.
In reality that should be a given
Copland two I know we have met more than once a ch and a midfielder, imo both upgrades.
26 Apr 2024 15:31:02
Zikos I said last year we had 20 million to spend, we spent 21.
26 Apr 2024 14:34:41
I don’t believe it’s over and above sales but time will tell
Remember most on here wat shot of Goldston tav Davies hagi matondo Lammers
Butland will if he goes generate millions on his own
Free transfers and loans in.
I’m very keen on two bosmans who r an upgrade.
We have significant savings on salary happening.
27 Apr 2024 09:11:37
Storm, if not for Fernandez Man U would be a bottom ten team.
I have watched him on multiple occasions, love him, a midfielder who can score regu, imagine rangers had one off them.
26 Apr 2024 15:33:38
Good team Berkshire, I was very close to including Hansen.
26 Apr 2024 13:13:00
Goram
Jardine
Gough
McLeish
Mcgrain
Souness
Brenmer
Baxter
Law
Dalglish
Hutchison.
26 Apr 2024 08:59:35
Agree Baxter dalgish a must
Ferguson and McGinn no way.
26 Apr 2024 08:56:13
Storm a massive wage at the time.
