Ello rangers fans a life long admirer of the famous blue white and red of glasgow im typing from down under where the kangaroos run freely! lol. Me first rumour for you is in the sydney times robbie fowler has been linked with rangers and they plan to take him for 50k when kenny miller says his farewells.my next rumour is rangers will announce a short term link with man utd to get players on loan for free like a feeder club however man utd won't have first choice on OUR players! And finally my work colleague is cousins with "Al Murray" and he wants to go to a rangers game before his next gig at glasgow so he can talk about his love for a real british team.

Just a little? ? on the tax issue at ibrox . from what i have heard that it was murrays international holdings that was paying the players wages ( non repayable loans)which really accounted for there wages .
now if that was murrays company paying the players wages . . . how can hmrc send rangers the bill if it is 2 seperate businesses. ?

Is it not the case that Jelavic will now be able to play in the Europa league as it is past the group stages?

Although I do agree we won't and shouldnt buy any SPL striker or any striker from Plymouth Argyle.

Ed any insight ?

Steven {ed's note - I don't think it matters where a player comes from, his ability should be all that matters.}

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Sorry Ed I meant with regards Jelavic being able to play in Europa now the group stages are over. Feel free to just add this to the last post rather than adding a new one.
Cheers {ed's note - you can register one player who played in Europe for someone else.}

Well we need to get a replacement because Jelavic Cant Play In The Europa League and i don't expect beattie to ever score a goal for us

"Can anyone tell me what the story is behind Ebi Smolarek? goodwillie will not be joining because of the rape charge. BWP will possibly sign as he did not fail a medical reading pulled out of the deal but Dont worry fellow rangers fans Walter will look into every ally to bring in new players if possible"

Don't think Ally will enjoy that

Where did you hear this one then? Walter smith confirms signing of former bolton hitman ebi smolarek

They didn't hear it anywhere coz it's bot true! Don't believe anything u read on here! I've yet to read any rumour on here that turned out to be true, but then again it's a rumour site so what u expect

Sad days for Scottish football. BWP linked with Rangers. SWP linked with English Premiership clubs.

We're not signing anybody because we don't have the money. End of. Smith is not seeing any of the miller money. But to be honest I'm more concerned about the fact that cektic can put together an exciting strikeforce of hooper and stokes for £3m but jelavic cost us £4m

Wat r u on? Jelavic has been injured for 3 months so how can u compare! Nothing like giving the guy a chance eh! Jeez

Rangers banter

Just banter, for what its worth(not a lot) I reckon if is going let him go now for as much as we can get! I would prefer he signed a new contract but he won't.

I am not a fan of Riordan or Goodwillie off the pitch but I think both would do a job for us on it.

When Riordan went to the dark side he didn't get much opportunity out on the left attacking side as they had McGeady and others. We have Lafferty! I would rather see Riordan out there.

Goodwillie is a goalscorer and has more ability in other areas than Boyd and we all know what he did for us! I would however not take him if the allegations turn out to be founded!

As for Bradley Wright Phillips he is nippy and I reckon worth a punt for £300,000.

I don't think all 3 will come but I'd happily take any 2 and let Miller go.

Bluegenius!

how u paying for all these players pal?

19 Jan 2011 14:44:38

An exciting strike-force of Hooper and Stokes? You must be joking, Hooper granted seems to score alot but Stokes is awful, how many non-penalty goals has he scored. Not to mention Celtic's awful defence. Cha and Izaguire can't defend just attack. Majstorovic is awful, Rogne seems ok and Loovens isn't worth mentioning.

stokes is a proven goalscorer don't u remember he scored 21 last season 2 behind kris boyd? hooper has been injured for 2 spells this season or he would have scored more than miller! and another point celtics defence is the best in the spl check ur stats pal

Your obviously a supporter of the unclean mob from the East . .
Point 1 . . No bear would call any Celtic player exciting
Point 2 . . Jelavic is twice the player of Hoops & Stokes combined, so your obviously thick
Point 3 . .You can't even spell your own clubs name . Celtic, not Cektic . . again THICK
Point 4 . . I can smell you from here
Point 5 . . 3-in-a-row here we go

Martin hardie at rangers don't think so why would we sign him when he makes it clear that he is a tim

19 Jan 2011 12:07:38
Roll on 12.30 saturday! !

Cmon the Jambos.

Tuck away you blue noses sat and the league is ours!

Time to break up the old firm dominance

Get it up ye!

Talking about which club signs which religeous denominations is nonsense now and you know my friend both clubs sign players of all creeds and the days of one up manship should be over!never mind though back to jock stein. he was not rc and he carried people off the terracings during the disaster here and never once said anything detrimental about his actions to any club or religeous organisations that Im aware of -which would right away suggest to me that he was a better person than you. judging by your own criteria and comments. .who would agree or disagree with that? ed.

"Not being sectarian but what is the chances of rangers wanting to or going to sign southern irishmen or catholic origin ie adam rooney and connor sammon, think before you post! same with celtic they would not sign any protestant northern irishmen would they ?"

The chances of Rangers signing an Irish Catholic are zero, because the so called people wouldn't want it. But you have already answered that in your question.

Famous Celtic Captain Bertie Peacock and goalkeeper Allen McKnight were both Northern Irish Protestants.

Paints a picture, doesn't it.

Any Celtic fan saying that has a cheek, they hated Gordon Strachan while he was winning the league three times in a row because he was not as many said 'Celtic minded'. I wonder why they really didn't like him.

I was having a look at this wright philips person and he is carrying a knee injury and is not in my opinion skilled or fit enough for rangers.it would be a better option financially to have james beattie and velicka put under the care of a sports psychologist and given till the end of the season to improve drastically or Id cut my losses and send them to the jobcentre reasoning simply is we know both can score goals and might turn around their attitudes both are signed at moment
nothing to lose really beattie is too old I feel in fact he should, nt be here but he is and maybe foster will come over if a deal can be done he at least can offer something but the posts are full of nonsense at the moment, millers gone get over it.
