can we please spare our thoughts for the family of former Celt Liam Miller who has passed away at the young age of 36 from pancreatic cancer, RIP YOUNG MAN.



10 Feb 2018 18:32:34
Rip. Taken too young. Thoughts with family and friends.



10 Feb 2018 19:30:34
Just came on to post the same mate. Really sad.

36 is no real run at life. RIP pal wish your family all the best from the blue side of town.



10 Feb 2018 20:02:33
Totally agree, a sad day for football. Wishing his family my sympathy.



10 Feb 2018 22:42:37
How can anyone disagree? If you have your a total rocket. Disgusting.



{Ed033's Note - People have admitted before to clicking thumbs down as they think in their minds it meant agreeing to a bad event. In other words in their mind you don't click on (hooray) thumbs up when someone dies, so therefore they click thumbs down.

11 Feb 2018 10:47:29
I should hope so. Someone dying at a young age is very sad. Regardless who they support or played football for. Respect should be shown. I'm all for banter but some people take it too far.



10 Feb 2018 15:31:47
Would just like to say the people that do nothing but m moan all day about models who is just 21 and windass who's Stats Speak For Themselves Do Nothing To Help Our Team Give The Players The support Confidence Will Buil And Results Will Follow But If U Wherena Player And Your Own Fans Where Berrating U You wouldn't feel welcome amd In Turn Performances and confidenvs wouor dip So Just Think about that before U refuwe to look at the positives .



10 Feb 2018 16:05:05
Ed do you have any translators?



10 Feb 2018 16:06:12
culddent agrew mor striling!



10 Feb 2018 17:42:31
I'd be thinking how lucky am i, my bank account is bulging and i'm playing for the Mighty Glasgow Rangers. I'm going g to get stuck in every week and make these great fans proud. Thick skin or get lost. We pay good money and so if players can't take abit of criticism your at the wrong club. Part of playing professional football.



10 Feb 2018 18:23:57
facts are we have a player in windass who has 9 goals and 8 assists ( correct me if i'm wrong ), however stats don't hide the fact the guy goes missing for 80 mins every game and does not like to roll his sleeves up and get stuck in.

his goals and assists tally TBFH are well below what i would expect from an average player in his position for us, coupled with the fact that the scottish league is far inferior to what it was 10 years ago.

i remember the days when an average midfielder would score 15+ a season and that's not including your special players in there day like albertz and ferguson who would bag over 20 goals a season. in all honestly that shows how poor not just our midfielders are but also our strikers given we are creaming ourselves at morelos who has a massively impressive 13 goals all season.

unfortunately for me windass is firmly in the get rid of UNLESS he's willing to knuckle down and actually fight on the pitch.

also for note why do people keep saying he's young give him chance to get consistency in his game. he's 24 going on 25 NOT a youngster and another 18 months will probably hit his peak, and given that then the guy has had his chances and blew them. that's all on the park opinions before we even hit his childish behaviour towards our fans and stupidity on social media



10 Feb 2018 18:40:33
Get rid of windass and replace with who? The days of albertz, laudrup, gazza are long gone am afraid. There's surely a long list of players worth complaining about. Niko, Herrera, rossiter. Is windass as good as Ferguson, gio? Of course not but he is one of our better players just now. Like it or not



10 Feb 2018 18:40:50
You seem very upset with the guy. I don't care if he goes missing for 90 minutes as long as he scores and assists. When that stops then we have a problem. Agree about morreles. Don't see the hype myself. Would be happy if we got the rumoured fee for him.



10 Feb 2018 20:05:54
If you watch the games without prejudice, you will see that Josh works very hard. Even late on in a game he will be sprinting to close players down. Yes, he sometimes drifts out for spells, but what player doesn't? Without his valuable goals we would be lower in the table.



10 Feb 2018 22:46:19
Rab he has literally just turned 24.

Still a young man, don’t make things up and say ‘24 going on 25’ as if it makes your point more valid, it doesn’t.

Windass is coming up with the goods, stats prove that. Yes, he does not do it every single game but he’s not alone. Morelos went 9 weeks without a goal, 9 full games, imagine the uproar if Windass didn’t perform for 9 games straight?

He’s the whipping boy and that’s it, it’s always forwards and wingers that get it at Rangers. Rangers are sitting third because the full team including the manager didn’t perform. Not just Josh Windass!



11 Feb 2018 03:14:57
24 is relatively senior for a pro player. Young for a tortoise but moderate for a professional footballer



11 Feb 2018 07:18:45
Windass has been good value for the outlay, one of our better signings since returning to the Premier League. He has a level and we will need better in order to compete consistently but on his day he can be terrific, those days just don’t come often enough for him to be top class however having top quality CDM’s behind him will help as they will clean up all behind him!



11 Feb 2018 13:55:27
Can u make these average midfielders that scored that many goals a season? And the standard of football has suffered because we have not got millions to spend. I agree he goes missing for large spells but he is getting better and better under murty. Personally I would play him in a cam position with a 4-4-2 diamond formation as I said he has everything to be a great no 10



11 Feb 2018 19:10:16
All the doubters look at it the other way - you take Windass out of the team and who do you replace him with? Who will be the lynchpin between midfield and attack - who will be making the assists and banging in the goals? I look forward to all the glorious suggestions!



10 Feb 2018 13:56:17
Not unthinkable just his age and whether he wants to get involved in club football after enjoying retirement.



12 Feb 2018 13:24:04
Whether or not Windass does go missing for 80 minutes a game the fact is recently his goals have been winning us points, there is a player in there I just wish he'd take a step back and look at where he is! From Accrington Stanley to Rangers, he should very soon start to realise that he may in the future play for a club with more money but he will NEVER play for a bigger club EVER



10 Feb 2018 10:19:07
I don't know about everyone else but i am adding 2 and 2 at the moment and getting 5. This is about a manager for the club.
1 Jimmy Nicol is the assistant to Murty To the end of the season
2 Michael ONeil turns down the scotland job.
3. Michael ONeil says the other day that he did not want to leave NI for scotland because if he was to leave NI he would only be looking to go to club football.
I have been told a few things over the last few years and have all come true, The bread man getting the boot, Pedro getting the boot, Cummings coming to Rangers, Danny wilson going to America.
So what i am trying to say is why would Jimmy Nicol take the job till the end of the season? Has he been told Michael ONeil is coming to Rangers at the end of the season and after what he said about leaving NI only for club football.



10 Feb 2018 10:56:30
Why would O'Neill sign a 4 year extension to manage northern Ireland? Think your adding 1+1 and getting 3!



10 Feb 2018 11:04:33
You beat me to it blueberry up till last week he was free to go anywhere but now he has signed a new four year contract we would now have to pay a hefty compensation deal that just will not happen



10 Feb 2018 11:11:06
Plus the media reported that his new contract has a clause where compensation will only need to be met if it's a club he moves onto.



10 Feb 2018 11:47:29
His contract has a clause if a premiership club comes calling but it did not say if it was English premiership or both premiership.



10 Feb 2018 15:00:56
Nicol only appointed to end of season because Murty only has the job until end of season. What is there not to understand?



10 Feb 2018 18:27:48
if we are genuinely going down the route of o'neill as manager we are as well shutting the doors once and for all. how the hell can a manager whose only club experience is shamrock rovers and brechin seriously be considered. admittedly he has a better CV than murty and no doubt would be a better appointment than murty but c'mon guys.

just shows how far we have fallen that we are even discussing guys like this and having murty as manager



11 Feb 2018 13:58:06
He is not the answer anyway done well internationally But That Says Nothing At Club Level



10 Feb 2018 10:01:34
My thoughts with Liam Millers family at this sad time. Another person lost at a tragic young age to cancer. RIP.



10 Feb 2018 10:09:23
He was a lovely football player. so sad. Just 36.terrible



10 Feb 2018 08:45:51
R. I. P Liam miller, thoughts go out to his family. sad news.



10 Feb 2018 08:43:14
Rest in Peace Liam Miller. Heart breaking for his family. So sad 😔.



10 Feb 2018 07:49:39
I would also like to pass on my deepest condolences to glasgow rangers legend, paul gascoigne and all the family, at learning the death of his beloved dad, john gascoigne yesterday! Thinking of you gazza and all your family at this very sad time! GOD BLESS YOU ALL!



10 Feb 2018 00:00:06
I Just want to extend my sympathies to Liam milers family. Just announced he died aged 36 from cancer.



10 Feb 2018 06:43:40
Absolutely tragic news, thoughts are with his family at this time! 36 is far too young to be taken. This is when the game is brought into perspective.



10 Feb 2018 08:56:22
Sorry hit the disagree button by mistake
My thoughts are with his friends and family heartbreaking



11 Feb 2018 14:01:31
Hate these situations my deepest sympathy to the family of a wonderful footballer. Just hope no idiotic bitter person that's calls themselves a rangers does anything disrespectfull. Just think of his family
