I see there is a bit of consternation
about young mr wylde tonight Ive read a number of different things about the situation and
a lot of you are criticising him ..hes just a youngster
saying that it would appear one former celtic player has his ear..and Id say this to mr
wylde if there is one person who you should not listen to its that man..hes certainly
not a person anyone should listen to
A good day for celtic when they got
rid of him.

Please enlighten me, which former Celtic player would that be...

Frank McAvennie

Wylde he used to be at celtic

Maccaveny the tool he is Haha

I could be wrong but other teams can only talk to player if he is in the last 6 months of his contract or his current team gives permission. and that includes his agents floggin him around? and he still has 12 months to go in his contract.

McAvenie is his agent.There's brains for you.

Rangers manager Ally McCoist is disappointed to hear that midfielder Gregg Wylde is being touted to clubs in England.

The Ibrox boss says the player's representative has also moved the goalposts on a new deal with the club.

"I don't know who has been hawking or touting Gregg around England," McCoist said.

"People have been telling me that he has been, so if that is the case we'd obviously be very disappointed."

Wylde has been with Rangers since he was 14 years old, and McCoist remains hopeful that association can be maintained.

"You'd obviously be hopeful a new deal can be agreed.

"I can't speak for the lad or his representative, but I know we went back with an improved offer and we were told not only was it not enough but the representatives of the player had moved the goalposts again - they wanted more than they originally wanted.

"So I'd have to suggest a little bit of work has to be done before an agreement can be made."

Despite doubts over his contract situation, Wylde has featured twice for the Scottish champions this season, and McCoist hopes that will continue.

"At this point he is firmly part of our plans," he added

"You just have to look at Gregg - we played him almost every game at the end of last season.

"He's been part of the team and squad ever since, so that won't change."

People are saying about the amount of CB's we're going to end up with but that's what we need competition.

Weir is older and can't expect to play every game & personally I wouldn't want him too it's good to have him in and around the club though 100%

Mo Edu likely to be sold? so Bartley can slot into Central Midfield or holding midfield.

Goian Centre Back, King Carlos centre back or right back.

Danny Wilson a young extremely talented young defender who has the club at heart being there to play left or centre back if needed.

Lee Wallace what a gem of a signing, Ortiz shouldn't be played on the left but some of his play is immense but should be on the right or back-up for the right to wee Naisy.

Lafferty & Jela up-front on form unstoppable as we seen last season.

We're ok, we do need squad depth that's one thing for sure so i'm not concerned how many extra players we get we already have the quality.

If the boy wylde is gettin above his station and being advised by that p%$ck mcavenie then bury the boy in the youths till his contract is up

You have to wonder about the boy's loyalties and mindset given his choice of agent and that said agent has just been exposed in a Sun article/video singing a banned rebel song in a pub belonging to the father of a present Celtic player.I'd get him out of our club sharpish.

Mc avennie caught at dover a few years ago with 100,000 in a briefcase said it was for a property deal,was offered chance to verify this,never went back to customs to get money back ou dont have to be einstein to know what is was for,should not be allowed anywhere near a young player,or influence his career,bloody disgrace,,,,,,,,,,,,

Frank McAbigot isn't his agent.

Yes he is

His agent is steven mcbride' frank mcavennie works for his company part time

ed why did you not show my post this mornin bout rangers and the administration email?
this is supposed to be a rumour site and i posted a rumour i heard and you dont show it and from a fellow bear tae. wits the script???? {Ed001's Note - if I had a clue what you were on about I might be able to tell you, but I don't sorry.}

It was posted up then removed by the looks of it . i saw it this morning ..it was his mates daughter is a lawyer and she said she saw an email in her firm that rangers will go into admin and ellis is buying murray park . load of **** if you ask me and if its true then she needs her p45 for blabbing about it .....bigt {Ed001's Note - oh that one! I deleted it for being complete and utter nonsense.}

The Editor that was on this morning did publish your silly comment but obviously removed it because you mentioned the Orange Lodge. We are a Football Club heed. Stick to the script.

It did get posted cause a mind reading it

Absolute nonsense. Its not like a lawyer would go divulging their clients details. I'm a law student and i know a little of Lawyer/client confidentiality ( on par with doctor/ patient confidentiality) and i can promise a huge thing like this would lead to further law suits for breach of confidence etc. if the info was spilled. I'm saying, this is made up. No lawyer would tell their dad's mate about such a hush hush affair.

I know players can really look the part on u tube, but got to say after watching Mckay i do feel we have a winner this time.

Offical rangers Website:RANGERS will approach Swedish outfit Orebro to try to complete a deal for Alex Bedoya now after being granted a work permit for the American midfielder today.

The Light Blues have already concluded a pre-contract for Bedoya to join in January. However, they were given clearance on the player today and will attempt to bring him in as soon as possible.

It has also been confirmed by boss Ally McCoist that a deal has been done with Australian midfielder Matt McKay and Rangers are now waiting for a work permit to be processesd so that he can be brought onboard.

However, the manager accepts that the chances of signing Hungarian centre back Roland Juhasz appear to be fading. He is still keen on Carlos Cuellar but the stumbling block is that the former Ranger won't be fit until the middle of next month.

McCoist also indicated that he could be open to a loan move for another former Ranger, Danny Wilson.

He said today: "The good news is that we got a work permit this morning for Alejandro Bedoya. In an ideal world for all parties we would like to get a deal done sonner rather than later.

"I will speak to Craig Whyte and see if we can do a deal with Orebro and it would be ideal if we could have Bedoya registered for next week's Europa League match in Maribor."

I think our team tomorrow will likely be:
Shagger
broadfoot/edu Goian, Bartley, Wallace
Davis, McCulloch, Edu/Ness(If fit), Ortiz
Naisy, Jela

I think Broadfoots ultimatum the other week will force his place in the line up but i'd rather see Edu there (assuming Whitty can't be played). Not sure if Ness is fit but i think Edu will play one of these two positions. Maybe if all is going well, last half hour we'll see some of the youngsters get some time - Ness( if not starting) Hutton, wylde most likely.

Broadfoot is rank rotten so it doesnt matter what he says get rid an take whittaker 2

FORGET BROADFOOT.

I agree with you, but becasue im not the manager, im speculating what is the most likely team to be played. Not the one i'd pick personally, where i'd have a restrainging order on broadfoot from coming within the same postcode as ibrox on matchday.

I would give jordan mcmillan his chance heard he played well against chelsea

That team looks like a step in the wrong direction to me

Broadfoot is a fud

Aye and youre his neighbour

Am I the only one who rackons we should be pulling the finger out to get wee weiss back ? Am sure he only has one or two years left on his deal at man city?

Defo he has great potential for the future and we need a player with pace and creativity on the wings WATP

Weiss had one good game every 5. Sand dancer....

Weiss was always pulling the strings when he played. Easily injured and not very physical, but you can't deny he was a key man when he played. M

So he had 3 good games for us then? A load of rubbish, he was a right footer played on the left wing and was one of our best players last season.

Yes we should get him before anyone else comes in for him

do rangers own ibrox? Murray Park? Have a full quota of season ticket holders? 16 million from CL football last season? If so how can a BUSINESS that have assets and income like this be in trouble. All this crap about the Sherrif officers doesn't bother me at all. If the worst comes to the worst we could easily sell the right to name ibrox and raise a good few million, personally i wouldn't mind. I know a lot of people will be against the idea but look at the reebok, britannia, emirates, DW, Walkers, KC. All have an annual sponser so why shouldn't we do that. Don't call me a part time supporter or anything like that, i paid for my season ticket in the Govan front for 6 years before work commitments restricted me from going. What's your thoughts?

Not one of them stadiums has history like ibrox has If its was a brand spankin nee stadium then fair enough

Scott brown

I agree, sell the naming rights, would make lots f cash and if we sell to samsung or Sony we might get free jumbo screens haha

They can name it celtic park 2 for all i care, it will always be ibrox to me

It,ll never be paradise though

Ed on the naming rights issue: How can Man City sell the naming rights to the City of Manchester Stadium? I thought Manchester City Council owned the Stadium. Also has there been any official enquiries about the renaming of Ibrox? {Ed001's Note - the council own the stadium but not the name it is called, it is like renting a shop, you choose what to call it not the landlords. There has been very little interest in naming rights of Ibrox, sponsors know that the fans won't use the name anyway.}

I saw in yesterdays sun that tinchy stryder big rangers fan should get him to pay and name it after his biggest hit Number 1

Papac was taken ill while on international duty with Bosnia and Herzegovina, with reports suggesting he had contracted pneumonia.

While he is sick, Rangers insisted it is not that serious, saying: "Sasa Papac will miss Saturday's trip to Inverness but Rangers are keen to point out that he does not have pneumonia.

What makes u think it was ally ya mug? it was leaked to the papers then ally said he is not rulling anything out try reading stupid it helps.

Danny wilson stay at liverpool wee Man Utd left us when we wanted u to stay and now u cant get a game u want to come back dont think so mate u chased the money so enjoy it as u warm the bench up at liverpool.

Mate i would grab him in a second he is a player we need think about rangers not ur own feelings towards him.

Hes a quality player so hope we get him

I think it was basically the bank who sold him. Surprised he wants to come back as i've heard hes a tim?

Think he is a tim, but he knows rangers made him and hes too grateful to go play with celtic

Albertz is a tim, as is Amuroso. Does it really matter? Would you rather he went to celtic for the reason he is a Tim? Turn it up

So albertz and amoruso are lifelong, die hard celtic fans? thought not.

Just wached makay on u tube looks good can pass a ball sets up a lot of goals just wat we need bring the best out of jelivic

if Rangers go down for 40m for this tax case, then it sets precedent and the whole of english football will be quaking in their boots. If our bill is 40m , can you imagine what some of theirs are ? How easily we forget, bears. Less than a year ago we had huge debts, key players running down their contracts and ibrox in a state of disrepair. I now believe there has been improvements made to the stadium, Davis and greegs signed up on long terms and we're trying to bring others in. Wallace looks a great buy, bougie was a liability waiting to happen. never really played a full season what with returning late (very) from international duty, suspension or injury so good riddance, you've heard what he said after he left. that says it all.
I think after the transfer window closes, we'll see hutton and ness come into the team fairly regularly. Naismith will probly drop to midfield, so in all honesty there's not a great amount of players to buy for the scottish league. We may rely on a decent loanee from premiership to provide the sparkle for this season, but overall we have a new owner, a new manager and some new players. It takes a bit of time to gel. Also, did u check out Goodwillies comments in the sun, says he was never coming here. If thats the case then the transfer saga was not as much of a disaster as we thought, heards the same about conway, that he was never coming. the sun and the record only want to sell papers so they string us all along with whatever s***e they can think of. Yesterday they both had the front page of the bailiffs?, no other paper had this on the front page ?

Do you think James McFadden could be useful ed? {Ed032's Note - 28 year old injury prone striker/winger who IMO is living on past glorys (especially for Scotland) He would be a gamble without a doubt.}

Was Gazza not thought of similarly. Not saying hes fit to lace Gazzas boots of course... WATP

12 Aug 2011 03:48:56
think we should throw a bid in for wee Weiss , we could probably get him for 3-4 million , he's still young and he showed last year that he had a trick or two in him and could beat players , looks strongerthis season and we could sell him on for a huge profit

He also loves the club and would jump at a chance to join us again

TrueBear72

3-4 million? On one player? Where hav u bn for the whole of the transfer window

He may still be developing and certainly wants to come back but he is not a 3-4m player at this stage

Mancini wont let him leave he said it in the daily record about a week back he only wants him to go to the spanish or italian leagues

blue boy

I think that would be a good move, as Mancini has the money to simply buy in great players - there isn't a whole lot of point in focusing on the development of younger players while the money is still there. Will Veiss realistically make it into the 25 man sqaud this season? no. Is he the kind of player who can hack it in the premiership? probably not for a few more seasons.

Is weiss not entering the final year of his contract with man city?

Completely agree he will come as Mancini wouldn't care where he goes if permanent.

Just watched a video on you tube of Matt McKay for the first time, and he looks like brilliant player. Scored sum great goals, looks a good passer and skilful. Looks like a bargain for the prices bein quouted.wot uz think?
