Timothy Fosu-Mensah any merit in these reports anyone?
1.) 22 Jan 2025 10:08:57
Timothy you say!
On a more serious note he's been without a club since leaving Leverkusen in July and didn't play a whole lot of games while there.
2.) 22 Jan 2025 10:16:49
Great player but has a horror injury record.
3.) 22 Jan 2025 10:55:34
That'll do us then. sign him.
4.) 22 Jan 2025 10:57:19
Played about 110 ish games in 10, years most played in a season 21, lots of 1-4 games per season injury record.
5.) 22 Jan 2025 11:17:52
Nothing in this one.
6.) 22 Jan 2025 11:48:47
If he wasn't so injury prone he'd still be at a good club and wouldn't be on our radar, canny see it myself.
7.) 22 Jan 2025 12:43:28
Where else could he get top notch physio as good as at Rangers.
8.) 22 Jan 2025 12:47:03
Was a very promising player back in the day, Man Utd wasn't it? Fulham? Don't know where he's been not heard of him for years.
9.) 22 Jan 2025 13:32:49
remember him when he was younger looked a good player, As plenty of u say bad injury record tho! hopefully we're not after another crock.
01 Jul 2024 18:57:10
Anyone hear anything on Goldson to Birmingham? Seems like it must be Rubbish Goldson has 2 more years and he's on more than they can afford surely.
1.) 01 Jul 2024 19:18:48
Speaking to a mate who supports Birmingham and he said the new owners are minted ??????.
2.) 01 Jul 2024 20:04:18
All I know is he built a big house down there a year or so ago, so could very well be a home coming kind of move and I hope it happens.
3.) 01 Jul 2024 21:51:12
A billionaire owns them.
{Ed001's Note - aren't they owned by a US consortium with Tom Brady as a member?}
4.) 01 Jul 2024 22:46:50
If he goes there good chances he’s hedging his bets on them flying up the leagues.
5.) 01 Jul 2024 22:53:16
They are Ed?.
6.) 02 Jul 2024 03:11:50
FFP rules exist. They won’t just start spending like mentalists and breaking their wage structure to win League 1. Goldson on £37k a week is massive money for League 1.
7.) 02 Jul 2024 06:11:32
Sorry ed I got it wrong I read an American billionaire and I believed it ?.
{Ed001's Note - there might well be a few in the group to be fair mate.}
8.) 02 Jul 2024 08:40:31
Generic ffp does not apply in league 1, it only applies for teams in Europe.
Psr applies to domestic football ball epl and championship.
They have some other title in the league one where 60% of turnovers can go on player's salary.
Principles are the same.
9.) 02 Jul 2024 09:38:21
Tom Wagner, Brady and a gd few others, couple of corporations involved with big % stakes, Brady has a smaller interest.
10.) 02 Jul 2024 09:52:29
SCMP John, Salary Cost Management Protocols bud, 60% of the clubs turnover and no more in relation to expenditure.
11.) 02 jul 2024 11:58:05
do villa have to be concerned here then ed?
is birminghan city the next big risers in england, very well supported i believe.
{Ed001's Note - I doubt it for a while anyway.}
12.) 02 Jul 2024 13:24:57
Tom, in my opinion it would take Birmingham couple seasons to get to championship, then at least three to get promoted to EPL
They simply don’t have the structure to support financial progression although they r active in seeking stadium naming rights.
30 Jun 2024 10:48:23
Is sima looking likely? Anyone heard anything? Anything under 5m is a bargain IMO.
1.) 30 Jun 2024 12:01:16
Was reported today that Brighton are happy to lower the price, I’m taking it with a pinch of salt.
I’d love to get him back but I guess time will tell.
2.) 30 Jun 2024 12:31:47
Think the big guy wants to be here, said he thinks he's found his home, prob Murrayfield now though??.
3.) 30 Jun 2024 13:04:24
I think sima could be 1 that runs right up until the end of window or if we qualify for cl.
4.) 30 Jun 2024 14:26:06
New Brighton manager wants to evaluate full squad including players out on loan last year. Will be late in the window if it does happen.
5.) 30 Jun 2024 15:55:13
Still got my fingers and toes crossed for sima to return. Absolute no brainer even for 4m.
6.) 30 Jun 2024 15:55:39
He seems keen to come back he’s a very good player, We need goals and pace he’s got both in him, Hard worker defensively aswell. would love to see him permanently at rangers.
7.) 30 Jun 2024 15:59:18
Sima scored 16 goals and was wonderful for us. We have been looking for a wide player with end product for years, and Sima is that man. Sima gets the goals Ryan Kent never did. Even with his injury Sima still managed to outscore almost every other player in the country who wasn’t an out and out striker.
Dessers and Lammers scored about 45 goals between them last season. Sima scored 16. you’re talking 60 goals between those three players. If Danilo and Lovelace can stay fit for a season how many goals can they bring? If Rangers had Sima on the left, and someone just like him on the right, we might finally have a front three that is balanced and can get big numbers.
8.) 30 Jun 2024 16:30:01
Lammers scored 23 goals last season? GRF i don’t think he did dessers for 22 and they wouldn’t be playing at same time either and Lammers will definitely be away I think this summer maybe even dessers.
9.) 30 Jun 2024 16:30:12
Sima looking more likely. Brighton want rid and we want buy. So much so Brighton prepare haggle. IMO 7m will bag him.
10.) 30 Jun 2024 16:33:45
Sima on the right would be great, Cortez on left is the way to go I think, think the Sima deal could be weeks away if happens at all though, hopefully Rangers are able to ship out the players not in their plans and get replacements in quickly, CL qualifying is going to be a big ask as August in a whole will be, players need to get their style of play drilled into them.
11.) 30 Jun 2024 17:37:42
Generic? Lovelace stay fit for a season. he can't get on the pitch when fit. this is funny ma man.
12.) 30 Jun 2024 17:48:49
How much longer Miovski left on contract? Sheep going to have to fold sometime.
13.) 30 Jun 2024 19:34:09
A lot forget that Sima is only 23 as well.
14.) 30 Jun 2024 19:38:17
Last seasons goals:
Sima - 16 goals 2 assists.
Lammers - 14 goals 3 assists.
Dessers - 21 goals with 5 assists.
Over 50 goals between these three players. Imagine Danilo never got injured? Imagine we had an actual right-winger instead of Scott Wright? Imagine Lammers got a run in his actual position and some fan support?
Rangers have players who can score goals. What they need is wide attackers who can score and Sima is the first in a long time to do that. I mean, 16 goals in just over half a season from a wide area is incredible. Plus, Sima’s age, potential, the fact he is the type of player highly sought after in the modern game, etc.
Sima is worth that £8m in modern football. I just cannot see Rangers paying that for one man when 4-5 more are needed.
15.) 30 Jun 2024 20:02:39
Am I the only one who thinks Mioviski is overrated, not saying he is not a decent player and playing in a better team would help him but a would not be going all out too get him, the market will decide his worth and if no one comes in for him early doors Aberdeen might end up letting him go late on for half the price people are mentioning.
16.) 30 Jun 2024 21:56:22
Cooper if anything Miovski is underrated IMO the best striker in the country by a distance and will only get better.
17.) 30 jun 2024 22:05:16
imagine we could stop everyone else from scoring, lots.
18.) 30 Jun 2024 22:12:59
Sorry but lammers can’t score in Scotland he was horrible ok in Holland the only place he’s ever done well. Get big sima signed.
19.) 30 Jun 2024 23:01:44
Imagine.
20.) 01 Jul 2024 01:46:09
Imagine we had left and right backs who could defend and help prevent goals conceded.
21.) 01 Jul 2024 05:58:17
Imagine all the people? living life in peace? never happened on here??.
22.) 01 Jul 2024 11:11:35
Lammers did score that amount of goals!
Just not all for the Famous!
07 Jan 2024 20:10:48
Souttars united at the Gers? Harry told to leave Leicester?
1.) 07 Jan 2024 21:07:56
Hope not think both are over rated.
2.) 07 Jan 2024 22:23:19
Both very decent centre backs. John doesn’t put a foot wrong when he plays for us baring in mind he always plays on the left for us when he’s a much stronger right sided centre back.
3.) 07 Jan 2024 22:33:20
Harry the better defender
John the better footballer.
Personally I don’t rate John as a 1st pick for a club of our size and don’t think he’s good enough for epl for example.
Harry I think would be great beside Goldson. I’d like a loan with an agreed fee though, maybe in the region of £5m £6m max.
If he performs to that level.
I wouldn’t be paying near £10m and so on for him though.
John will always be a back up for me.
4.) 07 Jan 2024 22:43:44
Funny seemed to put a foot or two wrong when it was him and Davis in old firm game ?.
5.) 07 Jan 2024 22:44:55
Honestly think our player standards when it comes to centre backs has fallen significantly and main reason we are not winning as much.
6.) 07 jan 2024 22:46:41
i believe he's been spoken to and about, possibly months ago.
7.) 07 Jan 2024 23:39:45
We've needed upgraded centre backs for years now, and I include Goldson in this. He's been great for us but we need more pace and consistency.
8.) 07 jan 2024 23:58:55
and we certainly won't be paying 6m,
9.) 08 Jan 2024 00:10:22
Gofor have to strongly disagree Our defence isn't the problem as we have conceded 6 less than our rivals, but they have outscored us by 12, same last year our defence was every bit as good as theirs, but being outscored year after year, we don't score enough goals, not just our strikers, everyone needs to chip in. we lost around 20 goals from midfield last season, haven't replaced them.
10.) 08 Jan 2024 00:26:15
I like John and he brings a different dynamic when bringing the ball out from the back but he does a have an error in him and gets caught under the ball quite a lot.
Apparently Harry is just as injury prone as him. We need to get away from these types of signings.
11.) 08 Jan 2024 00:47:21
Both Soutters better than McKenna, unfortunately we have not the money to be using in that position in this window, we might actually start scoring regularly from corners if Harry was in our team.
12.) 08 Jan 2024 01:08:06
John Souttar is a bomb scare at the back but decent going forward.
13.) 08 Jan 2024 02:17:35
Still on a big contract. Would have to be a loan as we could not afford to buy him.
14.) 08 Jan 2024 09:16:56
all efforts must be made in this window to bring in a striker that can score goals!
Yes we need an upgrade in Defence and almost every position barring the goalie.
But Gers does not have the money to get the level of defenders that most of you seem to expect. Plus bring in a lad that can bang in the goals. Most don't even want to pay £4-5million for Shankland.
One of our top goal scorers each season is our Right Back god sake lol (yes i know he takes the penalties, chill out)
15.) 08 Jan 2024 10:34:07
Coopersdad, scott mckenna is a left sided centre half mate, that's why we'd be better suited signing him if possible, as it gives us a much better balance at the back, not to mention he's much more suited than our other left footed centre half ben davies, for the rigours of scottish football ?.
16.) 08 Jan 2024 10:45:37
Both unfit and nowhere near what we need.
17.) 08 Jan 2024 13:05:08
I agree Ally. We desperately need a prolific striker. If we can get someone in who knows where the back of the net is the chances we create will easily win us games instead of hanging on to a one nil lead for 90
Mins.
18.) 08 Jan 2024 13:50:26
I like the idea of another big dominant central defender who can give us presence in both boxes but Harry Souttar is right footed and doesn`t give us the balance at the back alongside either Goldson or his brother that a left footed c. b would. John Souttar doesn`t always look comfortable on that side and I don`t know if Harry would be any better at it.
01 Oct 2023 20:34:53
Romano just posted on Twitter looks like Beales gone ??.

09 Jun 2025 19:31:39
Not a rumour just thinking out loud loads of people have mix opinions of CM replacements should Raskin and Dio leave, Maybe not quite a starter yet but what about Nectarios Triantis thought he was magic for Hibs last year valued at under a million quid only 22 years old.
1.) 09 Jun 2025 19:48:09
He was a good player.
2.) 09 Jun 2025 20:08:21
Seems we are looking at Pizarro and metinho for these roles…. maybe downes if it could be managed financially.
3.) 09 Jun 2025 20:10:20
Only seen him a few times R1 but he did impress.
4.) 09 Jun 2025 20:33:13
If we sell Raskin, dio and dessers next season will be tougher than last one. We cannot expect to sell our better players when with them we need prob 5 starters to come in.
5.) 09 Jun 2025 20:57:48
Walter as much as i'd usually agree that we couldn't lose the 3 they won us nothing if the right offer comes in we should be willing to let anyone go and replace them with players who are hopefully more likely to help us win medals.
That being said i could see raskin being a title winning captain if kept and surrounded by the right players.
6.) 09 Jun 2025 21:06:09
Seemed a good player to me, just didn't see enough of him though.
7.) 09 Jun 2025 21:19:20
Only ever seen Triantis play against us but seemed to give 100% if only £1mill he's definitely worth a look.
8.) 09 Jun 2025 22:27:38
Raskin is the one that will be hard to replace, he went to a different level in last six months and would love one more season from him but only if new contract signed.
9.) 09 Jun 2025 23:10:12
Triantis was excellent for Hibs last season and is the right age and profile for us. Apparently, Hibs are desperate to sign him and have offered Sunderland £1million for him. I'd definitely consider him as an option.
08 Jun 2025 07:17:23
I see every name in the championship thrown out way, if that's the case we've made a massive error letting Koppen go, Has he had flops yes but he was onto something being in players from all over! Personally I think 99% of the names are lazy journos and we had multiple targets in place pre RM. The two I like so far are Turgmen and Pizarro.
1.) 08 Jun 2025 09:10:57
I like Turgeman and downes although I think downes is pretty unrealistic without losing Raskin for big fee this window.
2.) 08 Jun 2025 10:02:52
Even if we sell Raskin for a big fee we aren't going to spend £10M plus on a player to replace him. hence links with metinho etc.
06 Jun 2025 11:10:01
Watched both RMs interviews if the board back him he'll be a success Imo, Love how he talks all about Mentality, aggression being relentless that's what we've been missing for a long time! What do you expect of your team "To never be outrun by anybody" that's a statement I can get behind.
He does need a fair bit backing tho we probably need and more sending on sales.
CBx2 one starter
Wingers x1-2
RB
Striker x1
CM but no essential
Sell
Dessers- Sell while stocks high-Martin might like his work rate and attitude
Bajrami- Work rate not good enough
Raskin/ Dio- one will probably go ?
Proper-looks like he's gone
Ridvan
Butland- Likes goal keepers involved he's shocking with his feet
McCausland- Just S#! t€
Really hoping to see him play some of the young guns aswell, Bailey more than good enough, Curtis ready for a squad role, Nsio the same.
1.) 06 Jun 2025 12:59:12
Keep dessers get danilo out the door. Will take a heavy hit on him but contributing zero.
2.) 06 Jun 2025 13:08:35
R1 Bailey may not be up to the physical side needed for Martin team just yet need to hit the gym.
3.) 06 Jun 2025 13:14:40
Rice has never shown in any game that he is good enough, he has a good left foot but all other aspects of his game are still lacking. Hopefully he will improve but at the moment he is not ready to play regularly at first team level .
McCausland showed far more in his early appearances than Rice has ever done and he should be discarded according to some, Lowry too and he's been binned .
So far its all hype and wishful thinking about Rice .
4.) 06 Jun 2025 16:15:42
Do people think that Souttar has the passing game to play the style of football Martin prefers. solid enough defender, bit of pace but fast passing isn't his forte. young lads like Nsiala with recovery pace (for high line defence) and good passing would be the preference surely.
5.) 06 Jun 2025 17:43:23
Rice showed enough in almost all his appearances especially Europe when he was given the chance. Lowry you can check back my old posts he's never been good enough an utter waster of a boy! McCausland never looked anything close to Bailey in my opinion he's brutal Rice physically maybe needs a bit time but Ferguson said he would be ready with a good pre season that's enough for me! he's unfazed in any situation, Cool on the ball, technically really good has an eye for a defence splitting pass! To me he's ready!
Think Soutar's passing will be fine under RM Angus actually love him as a CB.
05 Jun 2025 08:24:16
Think I'm the minority but quite pleased with RM, Suits everything the 49ers are after. player development and trading, Attacking brand of football, Plays youngsters, Young and highly motivated to kick on! He seems a clever guy who will have learned a massive amount from his time in the PL he's well thought of amongst players he worked with. The championships a tough league and he managed to go 25 unbeaten and get promoted if he surprised if many managers have achieved that! Good luck to the lad hope he has everyone's backing!
1.) 05 Jun 2025 08:30:46
T me you must be an idiot not to know u will need to change you're formation and tactics when going to the premier league from the championship, yous need to be a fool not to know you would end up with severe doings if u don't and it is in a sense a deriliction of duty to go ahead and do what u want anyway regardless of the outcome. Your job is to win or draw matches and playing far better teas with a wide open team is never going to end well. If we get to groups this year we will be beaten 7-8 nil if we get a few bad teams to play against.
2.) 05 Jun 2025 08:31:06
You've not done your research on him then. because that's the complete opposite!
3.) 05 Jun 2025 08:37:45
We need to give him a go. He started his coaching badges at 17. So he has been thinking about that for along time. This is maybe the break he needs.
The thing that could let him down is player recruitment.
This is on others at the club and they need to get recruitment spot on.
We as fans don't know the ins and outs, he could have been 1st choice or he could have been 2nd or 3rd who knows. It could have been because we haven't got a lot of money to spend.
Let's get behind him and start the season off positive.
Welcome our new head coach Russell Martin.
4.) 05 Jun 2025 08:58:59
Agree Storm but also think the recruitment won't be able to be done in 1 window. He is strong and resilient it seems as a person and that might just be the best characteristic he has when managing our club.
Stevie he did change things. he played 6 different formations in his 16 games in the EPL. What he says is he didn't change his footballing principles. Southampton just didn't have the squad to stay up as was shown but the next manager not improving the results they had in the next 22 games they played. in fact the next manager had a worse goals against record in his games in charge. so would anyone have kept them up?
5.) 05 Jun 2025 09:03:00
Great post Storm 100% correct on everything you have said.
6.) 05 Jun 2025 09:07:19
Stevie grow up your raging because it's not the man who walked out on us.
20 May 2025 10:57:05
I didn't think so but looks like it's Gerrard.
1.) 20 May 2025 11:49:58
What is making everyone say it. Has something major been spotted / annouced / tweeted. Or is it just cause the bookies odds. because if the latter I wouldn't go off that.
2.) 20 May 2025 12:23:41
Trust your gut if it helps. I've decided it's not.
3.) 20 May 2025 14:11:55
Don't know how accurate it was but if you google Gerrard's name then along with the info there are some videos that have been posted and one last night with Gerrard and what looked like an agent and another at Euston station, the poster said they were boarding the train to Glasgow?
11 Jun 2025 07:12:59
Aribo is on £70k Cantwell is on far less, These are the only two that remain with the agency Eliste the guy on rumours mentioned yesterday.
10 Jun 2025 20:55:23
Aribo and Cantwell were with these.
09 Jun 2025 19:19:39
You'd hope by the end of next season Nsiala would be pushing to start! Just needs a bit more physicality and experience he's gona be a very good player.
09 Jun 2025 19:17:01
He's on 120k a week.
08 Jun 2025 17:33:25
Defo Danilo is super talented, His face couldn't be helped and seems to have come back albeit slowly from the last one.
14 Jun 2025 12:12:16
He could be the surprise man next year IMO, Technically gifted so unlucky so far in his Gers career.
12 Jun 2025 16:10:27
100% cooper Souttar miles ahead.
11 Jun 2025 17:12:18
Really is silly season now ? Son ain't finished by a long shot, Top top class had few injuries last season still absolutely light years ahead of any one we have.
11 Jun 2025 14:32:47
West Ham offered him £75k a week he's out of our price range.
11 Jun 2025 11:14:24
I think we'll see him play a decent amount at Rangers don't want to see him on loan he's far too good.
