Fellow bears altho am angry and frustratd at the lack of new faces we so desperatly need, a think we will see new players signed before tomz nites deadline If not I will be headn over to ibrox and protesting to whyte as to why last week fool us by saying new signings will arrive this week Watp keep beliveing
Awww ra best with your one man protest ya clown
20 Jul 2011 23:14:22
I think mr whyte is a very clever man he has tricked everyone saying more cash is on the way but realy he is using the money he has invested in the spine of thhe team and will be looking to sell either january or nxt season he will only sign 1 player before deadline. And its not miller or cuellar but some youngster grom hungaria defender then a few loans to take the bulk of the team to 20 its going to be another long season ahead but W A T P we dont want old players bring in young guys trying to prove themself in a european league . Or some exective will question and tell mr whyte ull need to step up and pay. A majoy despute will arrive and heads will go in the ibrox board to quite the truth about his future plans 4 the club like selling the name. We wer warned but didnt listen any mulltie million pound buisness man dosent clear debt and spend 1pound to sucure the clubs assests it waz rediclious from the start I myself didnt see it but I do nw. Its clear to see they have not done or delt with a situation lyk this before. Desparation sat in last week with the anouncements of returing old players.those players served well but we need new fresh players to lift the squad to another championship
Is there a country called Hungaria ? I was not aware of this country, is It new ? {Ed003's Note - just between Hungary and Bulgaria,lovely this time of year}
20 Jul 2011 23:06:29
see this is why we shuda gave hemed the 16k a week he wanted wudent have this crisis and people wanting kenny miller back
how much of a tube is graeme spiers, i hope he gets to eat his words pri#?
20 Jul 2011 23:00:20
Still Early Days, Here, But, Im Not Too Worried, I Still Have The Faith, That We Are Going To See Some Decent Signings Just Have To Wait, Folks, Though The Fact That Were Stepping Off Every 1 Cuz There Asking Price Is A Million+ Look, How Did We Mannage To Buy The Likes Of Bougherra And Mendes At A Pric Of 2.5Mill when We Are In Debt, But Now Supposidly We Cant Even Afford Someone At 2.0Mill(Goodwillie or Lee Wallace) I Think Thats Shocking, Whye Get Your Finger Out And Help The Team
McGinn.
Out of interest. Why do u put a capital at the beginning of every word? It makes it harder to read and makes no grammatical sense?
Bobby {Ed047's Note - I Was Thinking That Too.
And the effort needed, its a waist of time
Look This Isnt A Effin Grammere Site Its A Rumor Site Lol, Im Here Just Posting My Views :P
McGinn.
Doesnt that mean hes talking in a stern voice {Ed001's Note - all I know is that it makes it very difficult to read for us editors.}
20 Jul 2011 22:43:38
1 month ago virtually to the day Craig Whyte said we needed 6 new players.We have done very well at retaining key players but we have 1 new player with24 hors to go to the first deadline for getting players in for Europe.Is Craig waiting to see how we progress or not before he allows us to move for anyone else.
We still have a team that drew with man u n valencia last season, with jelavic n ortiz added to it. Why would we need to rush out n get players 4 qualifier against malmo? We are good enough as is already. I say take our time, get the rit people in for end of august, take it from there.
20 Jul 2011 22:43:01
Ed can you please stop posting "rumours" that are simply attacks on Craig Whyte. I'm on here to get some gossip on possible transfers and the like, not to see posts solely comcerned with questioning the intentions of our new owner and offering to show him the way out. As Rangers fans can we try geting behind the club instead of forecasting doom and gloom? If I remember rightly Davis was a late signing out of the blue and what an asset he has been. Expect more of the same this year - our scouts are no mugs and neither are our management. {Ed047's Note - for your info I am posting replies to earlier comments posted by another ed. Any fresh rumours that 'attack' Whyte will be posted in Banter because these people have the right to an opinion UNLESS it is OTT
Really the scouts know what they are doing?neil murray and john brown?ok total play for the jersey players but are they scouts? cant see it myself
Hi ed just tell me what you mean exactly as ott? {Ed003's Note - swearing ...... etc, and on a sidenote ;-) the posters tend to set the theme of conversation so if it's not to certain posters liking it's up to them to change the topic which I'm sure it will when Rangers sign someone}
I see you sharing your opinion with us as is your right...well mate everybody else has the same right as you..and dont forget that again please.
20 Jul 2011 22:34:09
i dont think we will sign abybidy tomorrow or even the weekend. somethings not right, either their is no money and it, was all bull or ally doesnt know who he wants and maybe lacks some decision making as if you get a couple of wrong ones ie transfers then presure is on. ed you agree {Ed047's Note - no, I'd be very surprised if Ally would still be here if there were no funds for players. After all the promises from both him and Whyte his credibility in the eyes of the vast majority of Rangers fans would plummet if that were the case and I think he's too loyal for that to be the case, but you're not alone in your opinion- Graham Spiers on Radio Clyde for one
Hi Ed I wouldnt listen to what the odious creep (spiers) says he hates everything rangers always try to bring the rangers down I say judge whyte when the windows shut we will get players in we have a strong 11 and some very good younsters keep believing remember we are super rangers Watp Robster {Ed047's Note - I'm old and wise enough to keep an open mind whenever I listen to any journalist. I don't agree with the OP's opinion and that was the same opinion Spiers had.
20 Jul 2011 22:37:49
Why are people worried about tomorrow's Champions League deadline? Do you not think we can get past Malmo without new players? Also, remember that teams can include a wild card after the deadline.
20 Jul 2011 22:37:30
Should we raid the spl for young talent in the morning id like to see (valuations Were guessed)
Darren mcgregor st mirren 750k
Murray davidson st johnstone 500k
Jamie murphy motherwell 500k
Tom hately motherwell 500k
David goodwillie dundee utd 2million
Not gonna happen but its not a unreallistic list of potentially good signings wages wouldnt be to steep and is under 5mllion on transfer fees .
Larky bear
Isnt that what murray park is for?developing your own young talent.
20 Jul 2011 22:16:07
lets hope ortiz turns out to be the new messi because hes the only player we are gettin. WHYTE YOUR A JOKER
20 Jul 2011 22:08:39
Why can't you just be patient with Craig Whyte- Last year we signed all your players in August so why are yo panicking {Ed047's Note - the season started in August last year. No panic here though (yet)
Last year the season started in august and we didnt have a cl qualifier, thats the difference this year ed {Ed047's Note Surely more reason to get players in asap and get them settled?
20 Jul 2011 22:04:51
C'mon people lets put this Miller debacle to bed, if the previous board had not dragged their heels on the takeover the only thing Mr Whyte would be negotiating is a new contract with Miller, not haggling a fee, and personally I would want to wait for the Goodwillie outcome and push hard for that deal over Miller, Goodwillie 22 would score as many as Miller if not more and could still be sold on for a profit in a few years if we needed to, also do we really all have that short a memory that if your going to pay over the odds for players just to fill a squad it's a quick way to the poor hoose, (Le Guen era) I for one would be happy if we got 5 players in but waited till the English teams announced their 25 man squads then picked up a few spare players than bow to clubs demands just now cos they think we are desperate, now is the time for real fans to show patience and support our great club through the biggest change since Mr Murray swept to power

just been on a site and it says cuellar has snubed rangers type in cuellar to rangers it says there
20 Jul 2011 22:21:46
Gordon smith confirms that rangers are completely out of the running for kenny miller. Source rangers twitter page just tweeted it. Laudrup1982.
Read the same thing and its been confirmed by rangers whatever that plan was its not working .....whyte its not business men your dealing with now its mercanaries...get the cheque book out {Ed047's Note - just on STV News, Miller likely to discuss terms with Cardiff tomorrow
20 Jul 2011 22:21:39
why do we not sign T J CAMBELL FROM BLACKPOOL FOR 1.25ML {Ed003's Note - Who? }
You mean DJ Campbell
20 Jul 2011 22:19:18
If we dont sign anyone by tomorrow 11pm then thats when a will be going off ma nut, however a think we will get two players in by the morra night dunno who but lol
The players a would like to see at ibrox this summer:
David Goodwillie
Carlos Cuellar
Lee Wallace
Kyle Bartley
Wesley Verhoek
And a CM
Keep Believing
20 Jul 2011 22:17:59
Can everyone please shut up with the Gattuso returning rumours as he clearly ain't as Craig whyte has ruled it out and quite rightly so as he is past his best
Thats not what The Goalie said today my friend
20 Jul 2011 22:16:30
Does anyone know when David Goodwillie's court case thing is or when we find out if he has been charged?
Its been droped
Do you honestly believe goodwillie will become a saint if he signed for rangers, he would get the life pestered out of him by the best supporters in the world and act accordingly.
we don't need another drunken duncan from the rapplock.
20 Jul 2011 22:01:14
AGREE for Goodwillie?
DISAGREE for Miller?
By the looks of things were getting neither.....grim
20 Jul 2011 22:00:48
Whyte wont give Rangers anywhere near what he promised.
His business is to save dying businesses and lets face it we were a dying business.
He in turn reaps all the profits.
This is what he is going to do with us. I must say it's a suprise he didnt sell Jelavic. The only reason players like Shagger and Davis are on long term deals is because he knows this increases their value - and again he'll pocket this. not us. WE are up Sh$%e creek as they say
He cant proffit excessively from the club theres things in place at the club to stop that. the only way he could make a proffit is from selling the club and lets face it he'd have a hard time finding another buyer.
20 Jul 2011 22:00:23
not a rumour, just a thought. i wonder if Mr Whyte has spent all, if not the majority- of his money on the "lucrative" contracts given to Davis, McGregor and Whittaker?
20 Jul 2011 21:57:46
I've got 2 say the Celtic fans must be p!ssin themselves laughin lookin at this page. I'm as annoyed at the situation as every other bear but we've got 2 calm down and just be patient. The transfer window isn't about 2 close so have faith. I personally believe we're strong enough 2 c off hearts and malmo so lets judge the situation after the window shuts.
Think you will find half what get posted is celtic fans on the wind up so wind it in and stop crying big rab by the way
Here here well said plenty of time good things come to those that wait a think we will have 3 new faces in bye the end of the window, a defender, midfielder and a forward
They, ve no even got a decent keeper so miko, timalloy and the rest of them can go back to there losers page where they belong.
20 Jul 2011 21:54:43
One of our toms is missing, Timalloy has left for night but he posted joke on Celtic site thought you might like.
Mr whyte is a true blue even his chequebook is doing the BOUNCY BOUNCY lol ILWT
20 Jul 2011 21:42:18
if whyte doesnt sign a player for ally in time for hearts i will join the "get whyte out" campain, the rangers fans want goodwillie and king carlos back so rangers better get the finger out and pay for the players we want because the ticket money and shirt sales comes from our pocket and we backed rangers through the last few years with the bank running our club, its time we were rewarded
20 Jul 2011 21:37:49
evening times
The Rangers boss knows he only has until 11pm tomorrow night to register players with Uefa in order for them to be clear to play Malmo next Tuesday in the first Champions League qualifier, although he does have the fall-back of one wildcard signing allowed until 24 hours before kick-off.
The deadline is only for the qualifying rounds im pretty sure if we progress we can still register players after the qualifying rounds
20 Jul 2011 21:33:31
celtic sign wanyama who nd thety think ther world beaters best fans in th world at wit bein complete t**ts aye
Could u repeat that please?very hard to understand person talk.
20 Jul 2011 21:32:27
Well the old board at rangers were right about mr whyte and I don't care what all gers fans say use cAn butter it up as much as use want but the truth is this man is a fake Nd a lier and mr mccoist is his puppet and a yes man,
20 Jul 2011 21:31:56
Please guys just take a chill and stop this whyte get out now campaign We are not business men so we dont know the ins and outs of whats going on, I for one will be backing the club 100%.

K miller can f@ck off now If was a true ger then he would not be heading to cardiff bloody city to win sweet FA. But yet again get paid more. Hope he wins nothing again until he hangs up his boots. We need to focus on players who WANT to play for the gers.
Wrtp
20 Jul 2011 21:30:08
As it stands we dont have a bad 1st team
McGregor
Whitty, Bougie, Weir, Papac
Wylde, Davis, McCulloch, Ortiz
Naismith, Jelovich(Spelling?sorry)
I know we need players but there is a while to go but think these will cope until we get some new faces in.Plus english teams will need to offload players due to squad size. Patience is hard but that is what we need. Give Whyte n co a chance, theres no need to panic. Every year we are linked to Tom, person and Harry, nothings different this year. We welcome the chase. Lets go 4iar
20 Jul 2011 21:27:35
Miller having medical at Cardiff on Thursday, would have been a bit more confident with Miller and Cuellar in the team, looks like there will be none.
20 Jul 2011 21:25:37
if miller is homesick why sign for a team at the other end of the country. money talks eh
20 Jul 2011 21:23:20
Do you think Mcgregor, Naismith , whittaker and Davies would have signed new contracts if there was not going to be any investment on the team, it's frustrating with all these rumours flying about but we will get players.
WATP
20 Jul 2011 21:44:55
So this £15million budget is supposedly the wage budget as well. Never heard of any club doing business this way. We have been insulting clubs the last couple of weeks now by offering ridiculously under priced bids, £300,000 for Wallace, £1m for Goodwillie when we all know United want £2m, and now £400,000 for Miller. Just remember, we decided to sell Miller for peanuts, and now we expect to pay the same back? By selling Miller for this amount, we were basically saying that if we didn't get this money in, the club would have gone bust. Come on Whyte, show us your all action, and not just talk. Get us fans on your side
20 Jul 2011 21:06:28
We are officially becoming a joke...How many more pathetic and low bids are we going to put in for players only to have them turned down. Luckily we have a good crop of kids but you can't expect them to do the biz all season. Miller is proven so whats a extra £488,000... every bid we put in gets knocked back. Whyte is penny piching and Ally must be feeling a bit foolish by keep saying. 'A signing in the next 24 hours' 'a couple of signings within 48 hours' this has been going on for weeks. We currently have a smaller squad than we did last year (Weiss, Diouf, Foster all gone back) And that was threadbare enough...For God sake Gers please splash the (some) cash
Winkle WATP
Its not the fact they need to spend cash, its just were is OUR reward here we backed rangers through the last few years when times were tough and a few good players FOR THE FANS isnt asking alot
20 Jul 2011 21:05:35
Just heard there the now from ma wifes sisters husbands grannies fiances pet dug that Ally McCoist is coming out of retirement as a player coach, Terry Butcher to strengthen up the defence, Stuart McCall for a bit of grit and determination in midfield.......'mon if we dont a couple of players in before midnight tomorrow night then we are dead in the water already.....who else is looking forward tae Staurday for hearts coming tae spoil the party at Ibrox.....then get humped dae Malmo Craig Whyte put the money where yer mouth is
Hearts will get beat at ibrox rangers looked good last night the boy ortiz has a good left foot on him killer ball to set up davis , naismith was his usual self a pest jelavic hasnt got out of 1st gear in pre season will find the net soon , steve davis was brilliant and got his self forward often and well , edu played well for his 1st game back and has bulked up from last season , the young players we have came on and done a job the boy bendikson loomed gol hutton and hemmings also , we have a solid core of a team there lets see how we play in the games thatatter before we judge this team our legend of a manager and new owner , the players that are there have ran threw brick walls for us fans for the past 3 seasons and they will do it again for ally mccoist this season
We are the people
The champions
We welcome the chase

20 Jul 2011 20:55:29
i for one wont be losing any sleep over miller, we are well covered in that department its a centerback we need, miller would take just an extra £10 to sign for an other club he is money minded not rangers minded, bluebellsareblue
20 Jul 2011 20:54:45
its simple we are squabbling over a couple of hundred grand and risking 10 million pounds there is no logic we are risking some much needed money i just hope mr whyte knows what hes doing cause cheers will quickly turn to jeers big G WATP.
20 Jul 2011 20:54:32
Millar going to cardiff should clear the way for goodwillie they and rangers were really the only 2 intrested what do u think g s t q
Wrtp
Cardiff reportedly want goodwillie to partner miller if they get him
20 Jul 2011 20:53:56
This is beyond a joke now whyte. The fee Bursaspor want for miller could be paid for from the money from Charlie Adam going to Liverpool. Step up and pay.
20 Jul 2011 20:47:13
miller/no cuellar/no conway/no rodriguez/no money for players/no whyte the saviour/no.us celtic fans loving it/ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyye
And no league trophy for celtic AGAIN .
20 Jul 2011 20:42:12
If we ain't signed anybody before Saturday, I'm gonna start the 'Craig Whyte Must Go' campaign. The guy is turning us into a laughing stock with aw these penny pinching, ridiculous offers for players Get your finger oot ya nugget

20 Jul 2011 20:37:19
Hey Bears.
With regards to the Kenny Miller saga. I'm not sure I want him back at Rangers, he did well for us last season and I dont particularly blame him for leaving but I think we have to move forward and not back. I think we must speculate to accumulate and Whyte knows that. My guess is he is waiting untill after the CL qualifiers to spend money to avoid another kaunas fiasco, which was ultamitly our financial undoing. Althought we are all worried, for now lets keep the faith.
20 Jul 2011 20:35:36
CAN WE ALL STOP WITH THE GOODWILLIE CRAP IT'S NOT HAPPENING AT LEAST NOT UNTIL AFTER HIS COURT CASE
Any team would be stupid to buy him now.
We have Jelavic, Naismith, Lafferty and now Hemmings up front so what's the big problem anyway? We need a central defender C'mon Carlos
20 Jul 2011 20:34:51
Lol. Am watching the smelltic game. Commans got booked for diving lol guess what Lennon is raging at refs again pre season lol no respect as norm
Lennons raging?u must be watching another game.go and make up another story.like miller and cuellar are signing.ynwa
20 Jul 2011 20:31:09
not saying its fact or anything just my opinion but to be honest i have a sneaky feeling that rangers are secrectly getting players signing and not reveiling it until thursday or the start of the season because if u look the players are close to signing then all of a sudden it goes dead and smith had been in italy mcoist in england and that but no signings seems weird if u ask me
20 Jul 2011 20:30:02
Miller signs for Cardiff. So much for not being about the money.
Rangers refused to pay any more than £400k - told Bursaspor they'll bid no more than what they sold him for.
This is becoming a regular occurance.
20 Jul 2011 20:29:59
Im guessing we are now at 9 attempted transfers with only 1 successfull. This is not a great record. It is reasonable to think that the 9 are our first choice signings, therefore as they have all rejected us we are now scrapeing the bottom of the barrell for cheap dregs. This is not what i invested my season ticket money for, we seem to have another owner who has only contempt for the fans.
WE HAVE NOT MADE 9 OFFERS THE FANS AND PAPERS HAVE RUMOURED RANGERS ARE GOING FOR THEM, DOESNOT MEAN ALLY WANTS THEM
20 Jul 2011 20:29:14
Goodwillie case dropped tommorrow
The rape case against DG will be formally dropped tommorrow. Everything is agreed with the crown prosecution but the only delay has been because Frank Mullholland (Lord Advocate) was on holiday until today.
We are aware of this and its expected a bid of £2m will be lodged, and accepted, as soon as its a...ll official.

So it looks like Miller is on his way to Cardiff - good luck to him - but I am amazed at all you Bears that think his first love is the Gers - Kenny's first love is cash - cash is King to him - if he signs for us (no chance) we will welcome him with open arms.
Don't forgive or forget thats my moto

Is Mr. Whyte interfering with the transfers Is he telling them what to offer I think some one is and it could be him . OPEN THE PURSE Mr. Whyte
20 Jul 2011 20:17:11
You're all moaning about how long its taking to sign players? You want to look at last season it took the whole summer to sign Jelavic and look how good a signing he turned out to be. Good things come to those who wait. WATP.

Re: fellow bears, feel free to correct me but to my knowledge ally has only publicly mentioned an interest in goodwillie, carlos and kenny. Sadly all 3 don't appear to be coming but this might be a smoke screen to allow discussions for others, really hope so. Ortiz came out of the blue, not fed up yet but might be very soon.
Ill correct you cos you're wrong. He publicly declared interest in Rodriguez, Wallace, Bedoya and Hemed. He's constantly washing our laundry in public. McLeish and Smith never discussed targets till there was concrete news that they were signing. If Ally and Gordon kept shtoom there would be far less hysteria
Bobby
20 Jul 2011 20:11:43
Can I make an observation? No matter who you are, who you know or who your Aunty Betty's dog walker's dentist's assistant is going out with, too much nonsense is being spouted.
Craig Whyte, Ally McCoist or any other person in Ranger's employ, would not be discussing their signing targets or their progress with ex-players, canteen ladies at Murray Park, taxi drivers, U19 players etc.
Get real.
Rumours are fine and well
20 Jul 2011 20:11:32
Getting sick of keep hearing 'Rangers have bid rejected' Show us the money Whyte

20 Jul 2011 20:01:28
I don't blame any players for not
wanting to sign for us because who
in their right mind would want to take such
such sizeable pay cuts to play football.
Carlos Cuellar is good enough to apply his trade
in any league in the world. What's the harm in digging
a wee bit deeper to bring him in to at least have a more solid defence? If we get past Malmo I think our defence will be found wanting against the stronger European opposition of the Champions League. What you think ed? {Ed001's Note - the man has more than enough money to live on for the rest of his life and he has not proven to be good enough for the English League. He has done nothing to earn anything other than a big pay cut, since leaving Rangers.}
20 Jul 2011 19:51:20
We should offer Walter the post of transfer negotiator if anyone could tempt players to Ibrox I m sure he could, , what do you think lads?
I think if walter was still in charge we might have got a few in by now

John Hartson ''Rangers threw the title away the day Kenny Miller left for Turkey.''
People have reason to feel pessism when our best goalscorers are getting sold half way through a season but thing is Rangers always rise above these things and become champions, I expect no different this season.

Football is just a big business now not a game
20 Jul 2011 19:27:34
What happened to Ally, s list of players before the takeover, you know 1 list of players if we got took over and another list for players if we did, nt, at this rate the only new player before the deadline tomoorow is Ortiz get yer fingers out gers even if it is squad players.
20 Jul 2011 19:25:11
What is with all the so called bears fans on here? Uz are all a disgrace, calling for whytes head, etc.
since taking over the guy has signed up our best players on long term deals, ensuring anyone who wants them off us need to pay big money, n has looked to reduce or clear the debt. The guy took on a club on its knees, with a huge tax bill over its head when he didnt have to, n yet uz still complain
This summer so far has saw us go for 3 bosman players very early to increase our squad size. due to silly demands from these players, plus issues such as the possibility of playing in a better league, etc we have missed out.
We have also in this time made it clear we wanted cuellar, bartley, goodwillie, wallace, bedoya, n now miller. Each of these players will bring something to the club, but paying over the asking price n offering stupid money will put us right back into the position we were in before.
Now think what would we be saying if whyte hadnt bought the club? no davis, mcgregor, etc, no players in. Possibly no club. So, get a grip, if u dont like it, dont follow the team, we dont need ur likes at ibrox.
Expect miller, cuellar and bedoya in for monday at the latest. Wallace, bartley, possible cm & winger in on loan from prem by end of august.
WATP
Ur pissing in to the wind if you think they players will b signed by mon no chance and as for signing our best players on long term contracts all he's done ther is increase the sell on value so when we don't get in to champions league he can say we need to sell them to balance the books he's no intention of spending money never has I for 1 won't give him a penny till he proves me wrong n I doubt that's goin to happen
Oh you've got it all worked out haven't son? I'll give you he's signing our main players on long term in order to potentially get a good return. That my friend is great business, perhaps something you don't understand. It's how the game is run. Half of these clowns panicking are just that clowns. Why don't you go and support Partick that seems to be you're level of football.
I am tired of this carp and we are only in July
20 Jul 2011 19:20:11
would like to know if anyone knows if there is a possibility we will sign cuellar and miller b4 the champs league deadline or will we sign anyone b4 then ?
20 Jul 2011 19:19:38
is anyone else thinking of phoning or writing to craig whyte and asking what player he thinks is worth paying for?
how misrable must his kids be at christmas with a billionaire dad who wont even push the boat out for a second hand mcdonlds toy - stingy auld cnut
20 Jul 2011 19:16:20
I think the same we shood forget about miller i dont think mCcoist or anyone on the rangers board have a clue how to bring players out to be honest when smith was gaffer we could sign players in one day we have to id agian for alejandro boyada and a dntt know what cuellar is doing ? but this mangers and borad dont have a scoob what to do
20 Jul 2011 19:14:54
Everyones complaining about payin more for miller? We are offering 2mil for a player we sold for 8mil. We are the peepo
You forgot to mention kerkar?
20 Jul 2011 19:06:39
yous aw said ti shut it when i told yeez we had no cash - back when cardiff first came in about goodwillie.
this has been apparent for ages that whyte is full of it - stop living in dream land -the champions league cut off date is tomorrow night - weve signed one player who is no better than average. before you say im one of them im far from it - im just a pi££ed off gers fan who is sick of watching this club be mishandled.
look at who we missed out on -
conway
hemed
goodwillie
rodriguez
the dutch guy
probably cuellar
miller - although not even i was this desperate.
bedoya.
wylde wont even resign with us - probably our best prospect.
look at what we have done
given weir a contract when he is on his last legs - waste of money
Still got andrius velicka on the books as well.
gave david healy a new contract a guy who played about 45 minuits last season
Beattie still there too UNREAL
Andrius Velicka went last year ya t*t.

Get a Grip
Do any of you actually have an idea how to run a business?...
-----
1/ Kenny Miller didnt have long left on his contract when he left in Jan. Hence why he went for 400k.
2/ He is definitely worth at least 800k at the present moment. An international striker who was last seasons SPL top scorer while only playin til December?
3/ It was a different regime, Walter & Murray. Its Whyte & McCoist now and it wasnt them that sold him for 400k so should have no bearing on their valuation.
4/ since you're the expert on how to run a business, i guess you think we should pay 9m for Cuellar? That's basically what you're sayin. Players values change constantly due to form, contract length, age etc; so would be a GREAT bit of business if we could get Miller for under 1m.
You have to speculate to accumulate Mr Whyte. Please dont let us down. WATP
You've no clue what your talking about mate, stick to your day job Ive read the post your slagging off and at no stage does he mention 9m he makes perfect sense.
20 Jul 2011 19:04:01
I'm am really beginning to lose patience with rangers tactics in the transfer window. McCoist looks like he's run out of ideas already. Plus I agree with Whyte that rangers shouldn't be held to ransom but with the depth of squad we have, we will be lucky to compete with hearts for second, let alone challenge that manky mob.

Wot Algerian?
What Algerian boy?
Kerkar ? He played at lb last nite when he came on but is he not a mf

At last some positive news from Ibrox, The Tea Lady has just signed a new 3 yr contract, On a sour note, The parking attendant has been offered more money to collect the trolleys at Asda so unless Mr whyte comes up with a better offer he'll be offski, what next
20 Jul 2011 18:50:04
Ha Ha 8 of you "bit" on my season ticket post, thank you Baybear for acknowledging Celtic ARE the best supporters in the world, FIFA, UEFA both gave us awards. All over the world we are known as the Friendly Fans. Our Green and White Hoops are Iconic and known throughout the world, how many teams play in blue and white Thousands We are UNIQUE, we are CELTIC Your friendly visiting Timalloy
You are definately unique.....paranoid......Anti British.....and second best......long may it continue
Sporting Lisbon, Yeovil Town, even Hibs play in green and white, not exactly unique, maybe we're not the only ones in blue and white but you are in no way unique
Racing Santander, St Gallen, Bursaspor, TNS, so to some up your are not even the only one's in Britain, your not even the biggest team that wears green and white hoops, Bursaspor and Sporting Lisbon can actually play in europe
CANNY BE MUCH HAPPENING JN SO CALLED PARADISE THAT YOU NEED TO SPEND TIME IN HEAR.
20 Jul 2011 18:49:44
I'm starting to get a little worried about the lack of signings but we still have until tomorrow night to get players for the Malmo game.
Before the deadline I think we need at least a striker and a CB. We could also use another CB (Cuellar) and a creative midfielder before the transfer window closes. I think we'll also get some loan deals before the window closes but it will depend on who the English sides decide they don't need so we'll have to wait to see who is available.
In terms of bringing in Bedoya I wouldn't be surprised if we see some movement in the next couple of days. We've said we won't increase our offer but if we sign him on a pre-contract they'll have a choice of accept our offer or lose him for nothing (essentially what we had with Miller in January).
I think we should be considering increasing the bid for Miller. We know he can do the business in the SPL and he wouldn't require time to settle in with the squad. I think we should stay clear of Goodwillie regardless of his legal troubles as he has a knack of getting himself into trouble and I think it will only worsen if he plays for the old firm.
I don't think a LB is a priority as we have Papac and Broadfoot is an adequate back up for the SPL and he did well in the CL last year in that position. I'd like to see someone like Lee Wallace but I can't see it happening until we can get him on a pre-contract in January.
I think we'll have to rely on the younger players for the start of the season and I'm a little worried about that. Ness has a history of injuries and we need to be careful not to overuse him. Wylde was good last year but had a spell after he first came into the team where he was ineffective and I don't think we can rely on him for an entire season yet. Hutton looks a good prospect but we're asking him to change and become a holding player. Hemmings looks a good player but again we have to be careful not to overexpose him too soon.
If Whyte hadn't taken over we would have had to sell but instead we've managed to secure our best players on longer contracts so in that respect we should be grateful but I do have some concerns about the way we're going about our business. I think Whyte is showing a bit of inexperience with the low offers and Stories about £15m budgets don't help as it alerts every club we're dealing with and prices increase.
We're working with a limited budget and I think a lot will depend on if the coaching staff can get something out of the likes of Healy and Edu. Healy showed flashes last season and if he can stay fit I think he might be useful for the SPL and Edu has had some good games but I think he needs a more clearly defined role and some consistency. He's been at his best for us when we pushed him forward to pressure the opposition (like against Valencia last season) and when we asked him to play the holding role last season he struggled. Sadly I think Beattie is a lost cause and we have to hope a championship club panic and buy him based on reputation the same way we did.
20 Jul 2011 18:48:07
Even if Millers preferance is Rangers which I think it might be he's not exactly going to be encouraged by Rangers apparently ending their interests is he.
20 Jul 2011 18:42:34
For all the people saying its bad business to sell Miller for £400k and then buy back for £800k. Bursaspor bought him for £400k and then have paid his wages for the last 6 months therefore it would would be bad business for them to sell for less than they have spent on him.
GovanFR
20 Jul 2011 18:41:04
rangers need a new leftback- what about terry the tank hurlock he d come for 300 sheets aweek in all honesty please mr whyte spend some money your transfer actions are letting the fans and the club down
20 Jul 2011 18:39:42
Ally MCCoist to be out by Xmas, Whyte wont give him any money
20 Jul 2011 18:38:19
jela money went at the turn of the season pal then we wer broke
20 Jul 2011 18:38:17
Bursaspor have said that Rangers policy is shocking but they are failing to look at their own team. Bursa stole Miller from Rangers when we were on our knees financially. He's not exactly became a better striker or goalscorer while he's been there 15 apps 5 goals. In my opinion, Bursaspor are a disgrace and they are hypocrites and I can't say I blame McCoist for not bidding higher. All it proves is that Bursaspor do not like a taste of their own medicine. However, I now believe that Rangers will not do well in Europe this season. PLaying against the likes of Barcelona, Chelsea, Manchester United etc will severly drain the small squad's stamina and leave them unable to play in other games in the SPL, the Scottish Cup and the CIS Cup. I am a die hard Gers fan and it pains me to say all this but it is absolutely 100% true. WATP
20 Jul 2011 18:37:06
the time for talking is over-we need new blue blood we are so very short of players, millers worth every bit of £1m so we sold him for less than half that, because he wuda walked away for free 6 months later
20 Jul 2011 18:32:52
so weve pulled out of the miller deal, we dont want to pay for bedoya? we dont want to pay carlos what he s worth, we dont want to pay £2m for a dutch lad who looks a possible star and could easily triple his value in a couple of years, bartleys loans stalled? there is being cautious with money and then there is being scrouge like i think whyte has done great keeping our top boys on i cant help think that we ll leave it so late we ll have to pay the money anyway to get someone in mr whyte has my full respect but he has to realise what a lift to the fans, players and staff a couple of new faces would bring id be happy with 2 buys and 2 loans right now very happy
20 Jul 2011 18:32:22
Do you like Craig Whyte or do you think he is full of bull? He promised £15M extra but so far we have spent £500,000. For a team like Rangers this is embarassing. We had a team on more wages ten years ago and we were spending much, much more than we are now.
BELIEVABLE: YOU LIKE CRAIG WHYTE
UNBELIEVABLE : YOU DON'T LIKE CRAIG WHYTE
20 Jul 2011 18:27:37
can i just state.. as well as offering pennys for miller.. we offered pennys for bedoya and the anderlecht defender to now i was thinking... either mr whyte is telling us all lies about this 15 mill or whatever it is, or we are looking to keep the majority of the supposive budget for a 10 million pound signing lol doesnt make sense does it? i feel ally shud be a bit more honest with us, hes said were looking for quantity then said were looking for a marquee signing.. im so confused.
20 Jul 2011 18:27:37
everyone is saying whyte has spent alot of money on wages this season tieing down top players, , , surely ticket sales, shirt sales, sponsers, champs league/europa money pays wages? so therfore he hasnt spent any money what so ever yet? correct me if i dont know the ins and out of how its works. in my opinion we need a winger and a centre mid to replace edu he gives the ball away way to much, a defender and a striker and id be happy
scott
VERY TRUE MY FRIEND, , I WAS ON EARLIER SAYING SOMETHING ALONG THE SAME LINES
20 Jul 2011 18:17:02
Alejandro bedoya? anyone heard of him? bid rejected according to news
He's an american apparently suited to scot/eng football and is pals with edu. Gets a regular first team spot.
20 Jul 2011 18:07:23
just seen lee miller getting a parmo in mamas in the boro.....said he is going to sign for rangers .going up to Glasgow tonight...
20 Jul 2011 17:39:24
regarding this idea of why should we pay more for miller than what we sold him for
quite simply we had to sell Miller if we weren't that skint we could have offered him a new deal a deal that was not derogatory. he is a Bursapor player and they do not need the money the way Rangers needed it. remember how much we bought boumsong for and how much we flogged him for remember how much we bought big Carlos for then remember how much we flogged him for.
not paying 1 mil for Miller is false economy as he could be the difference between champions league football group stages or not which in turn could lead to 15 - 20 mil
i for one have been very patient with whyte but that patience is wearing of if he does not pay that level of money for Miller then im sorry to say the Septic fans are right HE AINT GOT ANY MONEY
Tony
If rangers couldnt afford to keep miller at that time how did they manage to find the 4 million for jelavic?
They scraped 4M as a transfer budget... Walter choose to gamble on quality instead of quantity... thank f**k he did
Thats why we couldnt keep him cause all the money we had went on jelavic
Can't see miller being the diff between champs league footie or not he's scored one goal in Europe in 5 year not really prolific if u ask me and 1 million is steep for someone who only scores goals wen he wants a new contract or a move away

press confrence under way at murray park
What for?
We just signed dave macpherson, terry butcher, gary stevens, david robertson and ray wilkins
before anyone says anything i am a rangers fan and this delay in signing players is driving me to insanity, lets hope we get some bargains soon
Ha ha ha another one
Actually let me change my last post, i dont think we could afford butcher
Know the feeling mate, , loony bin fur me if this goes on much longer
20 Jul 2011 17:21:28
Craig whyte is right to not follow up on kenny as he is on the way down but not taking a risk on goodwillie or verhoek shows a lack of ambition or cowardliness.
Garbage again re Goodwillie......no right minded person on this planet could ''take a chance'' on Goodwillie......3rd assault charge in 3 years and a rape charge, and you want us to sign him.....so what happens if he gets a custodial sentance, HE GETS JAILED A RANGERS PLAYER , f*** sake use the head and get real....that's why there ar NO offers from any team for Goodwillie, or have you not noticed that yet....
Next time why don't you use your head specifically your eyes and see that we have bid twice and Cardiff have also bid. Maybe you are right about his charge but if we don't buy him now we will never get him as he will follow the money to a good premier league team and we will have missed a gem of a player just because we wouldn't fork out another 750k on top of our value of him.
20 Jul 2011 17:19:29
Bears, the club i love is turning into a laughing stock. Our failure to invest and underestimate will cost us. The squad isnt there, sat v hearts is no gimmy and i predict we wont win. Malmo is looking like another kaunas, whyte, mccoist need to have a look at themselves, we could play our way out of the season by not bringing faces in. So much for 4 or 5 players by thurs. East Enclosure Loyal.
20 Jul 2011 17:08:39
People, lets put things in perspective. without craig whyte, there would be no Rangers FC. We have to get value for money, no point in paying over the odds, thats what got us in such a mess to begin with. i will judge mr whyte come next may when the silverware is decided. lets get behind the team for the season. Miller left to line his own pocket when the club were on its knees and if im honest i dont blame him, he has a family and is not getting younger. so im not fussed if he comes or not. Tying down the others keeps the spine and if they do leave we get a decent fee, looking back we should have bitten birminghams hand off for the 3.5 million for boyd so we will not sell our stars for peanuts again like miller.
keep the faith bears, won the last 3 whilst skint, heres to the next one
20 Jul 2011 16:59:35
i think the joke about renaming ibrox poundland aint far of reality now lol
Or maybe re call it
"Another 24 hrs "
I can already see the only an excuse, spin on the series 24, craig whyte has 24 hrs to sign a player and save the world
20 Jul 2011 16:59:09
i know nobody cares about celtic but have you seen their new away strip, looks identical to their home, what a bunch of wallies.
20 Jul 2011 16:54:01
I don't know about anybody else but it seems everybody is of the same opinion on here. It's looking likely that we have missed out on Kenny Miller and King Carlos looks set for Espanyol.
We all had high hopes for Craig Whyte but that is beginning to look like a mistake.
We seem to be missing out on players left, right and centre..... All of which we need.
Why not just pay the asking price of these players? None of the values quoted have been overstated for any of these players.
At this rate, we will be lucky to finish 3rd
It seems like Whyte has just signed McGregor, Whittaker & Davis on these deals to maximise their transfer value, no doubt they will be sold to the highest bidder in Jan or next summer.

20 Jul 2011 16:49:57
...Seems to me theres a lot of bottle merchants on today....have faith lads..the transfer window is far from closed....4 in a row...here we go.
Have faith, why? If you give me and the rest of us a reason then fine, but you can't.There is a thing called blind faith or are can you just not admit it incase sceptic fans see it.Take your head out of the sand we've been well and truly done over.our 'faith' and all the empty promises made us buy season tickets, we can't get any signings have a european qualifier next week and you tell us to have faith, open you eyes and see what is going on mate.
20 Jul 2011 16:43:12
Am I alone in thinking that Mr. Whyte is unsure of Allys abilities as the man to lead the team forward, hence the appointment of Gordon smith and the tight purse strings. Moving forward if ally proves in the first few months that he is infact the man look for more serious transfer activity in the January window.
Ally came as part of the package, personally i dont think whyte is giving him full backing, nothing suggests hes 100% behind him, whyte talks a good game....but talk is cheap
20 Jul 2011 16:35:35
lol even the rumours have stopped, or is ed on a dinner break ?
what do we all think of ortiz ?
to me he looks just average, but time will tell
To early to tell bud, but he doesnae look anything special just yet.
Billy Dodds said his cross for davis to score last night was great. It looked to me like he had sclaffed it a bit and just got lucky as the keeper was half asleep.
His finish the other night looked pretty composed though so who knows.
Baybear
20 Jul 2011 16:17:23
I am personally convinced totally rangers will not re-sign carlos cuellar because whyte does not want any signings who will cost him money and if they are not super bargain basement they will not be signed on. bye bye bears Im gone
20 Jul 2011 16:16:56
does every 1 want rangers back in the mess that wee were in. personally i think that 25k to 30k wage cap is an immense idea. show up whos a mercenary and whos not. whytes just trying to be prudent and keep us alive. give the man a break if he hadnt stepped in there would be no davis, mcgregor, whittaker, naismith, jelavic lets stick together the way the rangers family should. lets start acting like champions and leave the moaning, greeting and conspiracy theories for the septic.

Who do them turks think they are asking for 1 million euros for a 31 year old kenny I think they are mental and ffs rangers fans keep the faith we still have all the youngsters to fall back on I'm not worried at all ally and whyte are doing the right thing by not panic buying if they sign a flop or 3 all you non believers will be shouting bout that so chill out we still have a team I f**king can't stand all these bhoys saying we need this an that and we have a winning side already chill out bet we sign someone before deadline WATP RTID
20 Jul 2011 16:11:54
call yourself a bluenose mr whyte ? its about time you pulled your finger out of your arse and sorted out your purse strings because you are realy taking the piss now. if we dont beat malmo then no european football this year all because you wouldnt spend a few extra quid. £15 mill war chest my arse
20 Jul 2011 16:11:44
God help us if anything happens to jelavic because we will be seriously struggling up front I think we need 2 forwards a left midfielder a centre half and a left back.
20 Jul 2011 16:11:08
Allan McGregor - Best goalkeeper by a mile in Scotland tied down for the rest of his career.
Steven Whittaker - The most versatile player by a mile in Scotland tied down for years.
Steven Davis - Best midfielder in Scotland by far even when he's not at his best, tied down for 5 years and through his peak.
Nikica Jelavic - Best striker in Scotland with alot left on his contract.
Now all we need is squad depth, come on Whyte son. 55 here we go.
Finally someone with some sense
20 Jul 2011 16:07:38
Told u carlos wouldnt come make 2 million bid get it accepted then offer him buttons for wages carlos says no. Great p.r. Mr whyte but we all know u have no money now.

PAY THE MONEY...CHAMPIONS LEAGUE...PROFIT.
SIMPLES COME ON MR WHITE W.A.T.P
20 Jul 2011 16:00:07
There is no way I would pay double what we recieved for Miller. He has hardly been a Delight for the turkish(no pun).
We need to have some perspective here, our season has started earlier players are still on holiday and its only has-beens that agents are pushing onto desperate teams.
Yes we need players but I don't want squad players or donkeys just to please the baying angry mob.... Have faith fellow bears and stop fretting, 4 in a row is ours and decent quality players will sign.... remember..... ........

Never mind guys weve all got our memories ha ha thats the friggin trouble lets have a new era where we win frigg all and are part of the relegation dogfight for countless years then we will remember the good times vividly its enough tae give you the goodwillies lol
20 Jul 2011 15:59:37
to this guy:
this is now beyond ridiculous, It appears Whyte is bothered about nothing other than making money from Rangers hence the reason he has signed any player deemed to be of value up on a long term contract in order to demand hefty transfer fees should anyone come in. Losing Kenny Miller for a paltry 500k is nothing short of humiliating, where else would you get a striker of his class for 850k ? Why dont you just F*&k off now Whyte?
------------------------------
I am sick to death of so called rangers fans slagging them off before a ball is kicked. Mr whyte has saved our club how can people judge just now is beyond me. Remember its all about the long term safety about our club not blow what money we have on overpaying for players. I dont care if we bring in no more players obviously i would like to see players but we have to be realistic and not stupid on these deals, im going to support my team 100% no matter what. now get behind them
Good man...get them telt....It's turning intae a village hairdressers on here.
Am black afronted so I am....Cannae believe that sister of mine won a grand at the bingo and she's only giein me 300 quid...a ken....it's fu**ing ridiculous so it is. Here's me oan the brew anaw, wi four bairns and she's goat the cheek tae gie me £300 fur dayin nuthin...
Singlemawbear
If whyte was only interested in making money he wouldnt be investing all the money he is on improving the stadium aswell as the bumper new contracts to keep the key players at rangers..with the core there we'll be fine until january..we need to be careful about this hmrc case i think we will see more activity to strengthen the team in the january window
20 Jul 2011 15:55:54
Let's not get too upset if we fail to re-sign Kenny Miller. Although he had a good season last year, he is a mediocre player with no sell on value. Whyte has demonstrated good business accuman by signing McGregor, Whittaker, and Davis on long term contracts.
It is high time that the youth was given more of a chance at Ibrox. We don't need to sign players in the twighlight of their careers, whose hunger has gone. Look at last season where Ness and Wylde were very impressive, and hopefully Fleck and Hutton can improve this term.
We have got to accept that with the revenue generated by Scottish football we can no longer compete financially with Championship clubs, let alone Premiership clubs.
I will not be judging Whyte on simply how much money he spends this transfer window. Lets back Whyte, and give him a chance to run our club. Murray and the old board put us in this financial mess.
Let's all be realistic, as well as optimistic about the up coming season and back McCoist and Whyte. No need to panic we won the league last year with the same players, and I see no reason why we should not do the same this year, and have the opportunity to blood new talent from Murray Park.
Deebeetee
I'll agree with you about the youth players. we've a good young midfield core to bring through hemmings looked good last couple games and fleck can hopefully step up. however, it's still the defence i'm worried about. there doesn't seem to be any youth ready to come up there and we really need to be signign a starter (or 2) i am worried about Whyte's true intentions. remember he hasn't actually got rid of the debt, only "moved it" he does seem to be reluctant to spend money. understandable but frustration none the less. i'm not convinced we'll sign anyone for the malmo game but will have players by end of august
20 Jul 2011 15:55:39
EVERYONE CALM DOWN
Guys just because teams put an asking price on someone does not mean we agree with it. Like buying a house we can always try to get them a little cheaper than expected as this makes the future better for the club as our assets will be much more profitable.
Kenny Miller as good as he can be is not worth 1m to our club. He will have no sell on price and although he may score 25+ goals this season im sure if Coisty and Whytey can find a striker who will do the same except he is 25 and could be worth 4 times what we get him at in 2 or 3 years then this is the way forward.
I agree it is very frustrating as our league campaign starts earlier this season and we will probably not see our top targets arrive for another 3 or 4 weeks. I understand we have very important games before then but i honestly believe we have enough quality at the club already to get past Hearts, Malmo and St Johnstone.
Lets support the bears and judge in a month not 1 week lol
I am a bit upset at not going for the Dutch lad as he is widely respected as a top dutch winger and for 2 mill i think its a steal and we would double that in 1 or 2 seasons

Good afternoon gentlemen,
I am a little concerned but have decided to wait quietly to see the outcome and the shape of our squad in August. However two small points I'd like to mention to my fellow bears....
1) Why is getting Cuellar so urgent? I believe the deadline on Thursday is for the qualifier only (I could be wrong). If Cuellar is out until Sept anyway and we need 2 central defenders we are better spending our time bringing in the other one who can play now and get Cuellar a few days/weeks later when the clock is not ticking?
2) When we are questioning should we pay more than £400k for Miller we have to take into consideration contract. A 30 year old miller with 6mths left on contract is worth less than 31 year old Miller with years left even if unsettled. £800k is not unreasonable.
I have been impressed with the names we have been linked with in the papers over the past few days but await the outcome with eagerness albeit fading.

Well I thot it all too good to be true , a 15Mil budget etc , new faces , broken promises, While i accept its not all Whytes fault , I think he has led us slightly up the garden path. A prolific goalscorer in the SPl that we may lose for what £500 , cmon chalky spend that money. a lot of us are losing patience with this charade
20 Jul 2011 15:53:23
I was one of the ones saying give Whyte a chance etc but for me this is getting beyond a joke. We slammed bursaspor for there derogiatory bid for Whittaker so why are we lousy amounts for players? surely if the management rate them highly then they would pay the money unless the money isn't there. I do hope i am wrong but tbh i can't see us signing many players the majority will be loans done in august.
20 Jul 2011 15:52:12
think you should let your husbands back on the computer ladies. this moaning, whinging is starting to get a bit annoying now. this is a rumours page for RANGERS FANS. if you think you are 1 stop bad mouthing the club, manager and owner. where would we be without whyte
Dont be folled by timothy writing on these pages mate
Still be puttin in better bids
20 Jul 2011 15:51:59
I for one am glad that we are standing firm on Kenny Miller. Bursaspor stiffed us on the original sale. Miller is not worth more than £400,000. Forget him and move onto younger players he's had his time and I thank him for it.
It's time to get real folks we aint payin over the odds for players, it's key we get it right first time, no more Beatties

On top of my last comment if the situation continues, David Weir will be the first to fifty to play for Rangers.
20 Jul 2011 15:45:46
just been to murray park and guess who i saw...................you got it no-one as usual coz whyte is a liar and there is no cash to spend on new players, thats why bids keep going in way under valuation so ally and whyte can make it look like they even tried......bring back lloyds tsb lol
Deary me...mair sniping and misery. I'm away to ma mammys for a cuddle, I just feel so sad :-(
Bay(bee)bear
Bring back lloyd tsb. if whyte hadnt of bought us out davis mcgregor whittaker would have been sold simple as that big rab by the way
20 Jul 2011 15:43:43
At this rate I can see no more signings for the deadline. It ridiculous going into the champions league qualifiers with 1 new signing that cost pennies if not a bosman not entirely sure. Every 5 minutes I check the news and hop we've pulled something oot the bag but honestly bears a dont think there's goni be any more signings. Hope to god am wrong. GET THE CASH OOT
If u genuinely think we wont sign a player before the window shuts ur off ur rocker mate
20 Jul 2011 15:41:45
Ppl on this need to get a grip, why wud we pay nearly double wot we sold miller for 6 months ago, miller will go where the money is so we are better goin for sum1 much younger, defo no need to panic 4 in a row
20 Jul 2011 15:36:42
How narrow minded everythings good and rosy when it's being reported that Rangers are going to sign this one and that one then as soon as a bad story comes out everyones contradicting themselves. I do not give a sh*t who Rangers sign, we have a club who are very much capable of being champions and we will sign players - who I don't know, who I don't care because at the end of the day i'm blessed to be a Rangers supporter. Simples.
Listen you will not be saying that next april when we have lost the league, , we dont have Walter to carry us this time, , Ally needs more players, , , , fact mate not fiction, , i am as true blue as you but my head is not buried under the sand
Yes we sure do, but the fans want to see the club go forward, and by the looks of it we aint, would u wonna fork out 500 quid to see the mighty gers grind out results every week? its not gd value is it? whyte really needs to back his comnents up cos by the sound of it hes leading us all on
Aye we, l c how blessed u feel when uv scrimped all yr to pay ur season ticket and were watching Celtic hump us don't b so f***en blind that team wont win the league without signings and I for 1 don't want to c the manky mob lift it when every sane person knows if we'd bought 3 or 4 players it would b 4 in a row another yr with no champions league money would cripple them and who knows many we could win so don't give me this loyalty pish any loyal gers
20 Jul 2011 15:33:37
There's is no way ally will let these targets slip. No chance This is what Rangers do, make ridicules bids then up them.
I believe we will sign Miller Cueller Bedoya Jahusz tonight or tomorrow. I honestly believe this We will also try and sign 1 more that's not been mentioned yet Keep believing

To the guy who was arguing with Miko regarding season sitcket sales at ibrox, look at todays evening times, quarter page advert selling tickets for hearts game, that PROVES not as many season tickets sold as last year, remember hearts will bring 4 or 5 thousand, This is you lot unfurling flag and you cant fill your ground. Timalloy
Are you a bit special timmy? have the worlds gretest support bought all available seats? nope? didn't think so. what happened to all the worlds greatest supporters when they stopped going to games?
It proves what? do you have knowledge of season ticket sales?
How does it? away back to the runners up page you loser. they need all the support the y can get
Hearts never bring more than a couple of hundred you dim wit
Lol hearts dont have 6 thousand at there own stadium ya plumb lol
Ibrox will be bouncing and you my unwashed friend will be watching it on someone elses (Probably with no TV Licence i might add)
Chin up kid you are great at finishing top of the rest lol WATP
And you can't fill your trophy cabinet

Rangers team for sat against Hearts.
McGregor, Broadfoot, Bougherra, Weir, Whittaker, Edu, Davis, Ortiz, Wylde, Naismith, Jelavic.
I sadly agree with you :(
but hoping we get a new defender in by sat. and hopefuly miller, i would put young wylde on bench put miller up front with jela
Weir is suspended for the game??
Weir aint playin saturday
Papac in for weir and i would agree
20 Jul 2011 14:33:03
for every tenner ally wants to spend whyte pays a fiver
20 Jul 2011 14:20:56
bursaspor say rangers offer for miller is ridiculously low even tho its the same offer they bought him for less than 6 months ago. and look at the 4 bids they put in for whitty. gers are right to put that offer in 1st. imo gers should up the offer slightly(as they did with whitty) and if miller really wants to come back to rangers he will reject cardiff and tell bursaspor that he will only go back to rangers. rangers and miller are holding all the cards this time
20 Jul 2011 14:20:25
According to STV iPhone app, Bursaspor have firmly rejected Rangers 400,000 (£352,000) offer for Kenny Miller as they want nearer a million so they can buy a replacement. Erkan Kamat, Bursa's Director of Transfers has deemed the offer 'ridiculously low' and claims Miller is on his way to Cardiff who have met the 1 million (880k) asking price.
I'm starting to worry bout this looming euro deadline folks.
20 Jul 2011 14:12:20
Look who was right. Last week I said Miller would stay in Turkey or go to England.
Looks like he is going to England.
I for one am very glad.
Davie
WALES IS IT NOT, , IF NOT IBROX
Not that i'm being pedantic but technically he's going to Wales.
TrampsPants
Mate, i dunno how to tell u this but cardiff are from wales.
Cardiffs in Wales ya numpty
Look who was wrong about where he is going to.
Cardiff City are a Welsh club playing in an English League. But since they're from Wales, that makes them a Welsh club.
20 Jul 2011 14:11:48
This is a joke now we are losing out on everybody, if we have 15m why no spend 800k we need players fast, read some clown saying on a post they will need training before they play anyway, well we will be waiting even longer if we dont start signing, if we go out against malmo coz of no squad there will be an up roar
20 Jul 2011 14:03:09
dont see why were argueing over a few thousand for miller but yet we are willing to bid over a million for verhoek and bedoya.
20 Jul 2011 14:02:10
400,000 bid for miller. i thought you had a £15m warchest or was that your joke of an owner believing he would win the euromillions?
20 Jul 2011 13:59:55
well in the daily star it quote's mccoist has, though ruled out a move for den haag winger wesley verhoek ..... and tbh a watch a fair bit of dutch football and he would be a quality signing tht the fans would love :-(
20 Jul 2011 13:59:27
I posted on here about a week ago but the ed never submitted it as I am not a WATP and "have faith in Whyte" type of guy.What I am tho is a Rangers season ticket holder who is sick of hearing lies, lies lies coming out of the club.Craig Whyte has stabilised the club...FACT.We have resigned players who would have otherwise left the club.If this is all he is doing then Im grateful for that but dont tell us theres a transfer WAR chest for the , management.Whos the war against...Faroe Islands?because thats the budget we've got.If u want a player pay the money or shut up.example Andy Carrol, never worth 35million but thats who liverpool wanted so they paid the cash.
Cuellar would be a good signing as would miller but I would be quite happy if we didnt sign the Judas.He leaves and we end up buying him back for more money??
I for one am starting to think that Murray, Bain and John Greig were right to be worried.
A Fed up Ger
Said from day one mate that something aint right about craig whyte, when legends like john greig (true legend)raise concerns you know something aint right, i would believe greig before i would believe whyte, if whyte is as rich as claimed why are ludicrous bids being put in, its almost as if he doesnt want players to sign then spout that they tried, its beyond belief whats going on, how long is he keeping this sham going before their is serious unrest from the fans?
Murray wasn't worried he sold the club and Greig is still on the board so he can't have been that worried, bain was worried because he was losing his job after awarding himself a 30% pay rise to bring himself into line with peter liewell's wages at the giro dome but I would point this out yet again yes I believe we need players but I also agree at the correct price as u correctly stated at the start of your post signing these players on long term contracts is good business but SUPER ALLY has pointed out many times he wants players who can go straight into first team, the team who finished most of the games at the end of last season I would find it hard to drop any of them so we can't panic and just get any1 in for the sake of it and miller wasn't a judas he was sold and was asked to take a pay cut to stay
Why do people keep saying 15m warchest ? whytes actual words were that there is more INVESTMENT "if" its needed he didnt say how much or what that investment is to be spent on....However i do think we should match cardiffs bid for miller £850k is a good price for someone that is proven within our squad.
Big John is undoubtably a Rangers legend but I wouldnae say he's a financial genius. He'll have just taken the word of the finnancial men around him as gospel. As far as I can see in a short space of time Whyte has secured our financial future, secured our best players and is in the hunt for more. That'll do for me boys.

20 Jul 2011 13:57:13
cardiff need to stop hacking on to ally mcoists computer and taking our transfer targets : miller goodwillie conway etc
Yeah cause how else would they have even heard of any of these players, maybe Rangers should try an be a bit more discreet about who they want Eh
20 Jul 2011 13:54:26
We have now offered £600000 for miller
People have said dnt worry etc, but if we are tryin not to stump up that amount we have every reason to be slightly worried now
Where are you getting the 600k from? I can't see it mentioned anywhere. Anyways, thats still 200k less than Cardiff have apparently offered.

RANT ALERT
TO ALL THE GET A GRIP WHITE BRIGADE
HAVE A THINK TO YOUSELFS HOW MUCH THE CONTRACTS FOR DAVIS, SHAGGER, WHITTAKER HAVE TAKEN UP
do you not think that is a sign of how much he is investing in the squad allready shagger 6 year contract 20 grand + per week, davis 20 grand+ per week 5 yer contract and whittaker 20 grand + per week 5 year contract
seriously people posting about protesting outside ibrox and people refusing to go to the games, call yoursel GERS FANS if thats the action you want to take fine your not welcome
white is being cautious in the market because he has to be to make it right first time round rather than make an arse of it and then be up the river wtihout a paddle
things will get sorted out soon enough, have faith in the living legend that is SUPER ALLY and his backroom team, they will be working their socks off to get deals done before the cut off for the qualifiers and if not they will get players in before the window shuts.
can i ask how a team that won the league albeit a small squad immediately needs to sign everyone we are linked with as i said white and ally want to get the players that are right for us first time and not waste the money on players that are going to sit in the stand picking up a wage for eff all
i for one will be doning the blue jerzy on satarday for the jam tarts game and taking up my seat in the coapland front for every game i can possibly go to this season just like any other, i support the team through thick and thin no matter who we do or dont sign
TRUE BLUE CRANNY

Couldnt agree with you more mate. See you down the copland front.
Totally incorrect I M SORRY MATE BUT YOU MIGHT WANT TO SIT BACK AND WATCH OUR GREAT TEAM GO DOWN THE PAN, AND BELEIVE ME IF WE DONT DO ANYTHING THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT WILL HAPPEN, , WE DONT HAVE SOME RIGHT FOR PLAYERS TO COME TYO US JUST BECAOSE WE THE GREAT GLASGOW RANGERS, , ON THE CONTRARY PLAYER DONT WANT TO PLAY FOR US NOW BECAUSE OF OUR SECTARIAN PAST, , WE HAVE TO PAY OVERE THE ODDS TO GET PLAYERS NOW, , SO GET YOUR HEAD OUT YOUR A*** AND SEE THE DAYLIGHT, , I HAVE SUPPORTED THE GERS FOR NEARLY 60 YEARS NOW SO DONT TELL ME TO STICK BY THE TEAM I ALWAYS WILL TO MY LAst day on this earth
Cmon guys wise up most of the crap on this page is written by the smelly lot from the other page dont bite
And would you like to elaborate as to what i am allegedly wrong about
Bang on True blue tranny (sorry couldnt help it) what is it they say good things come to those who wait and im sure Ally and Mr Whyte have the Glasgow Rangers best interests to heart and are doing there utmost to do what is right for us. HAVE FAITH and remember AYE READY WRTP :)
Whtye should NOT have come out & said we WILL sign players before Thursday, that's why people are starting to get p***** off or they don't trust him.

Whytes only gona pay these guys long term contracts If they stay, all he's done is bump their sell on value up, didn't Goodwillie sign a new deal at Dundee Utd but it seems he's on the move?
Bottom line, Rangers are still in debt only difference now is They owe that money to the majority shareholder who can take It when and as he wants instead of a Bank who would and have probably lost a great deal of money from puting the club to the wall. as for the contracts for players thats an obvious way to protect your assets from goin on the cheap or for free, Whyte paid £1 for his controlling interest in Rangers and the club now owe him millions.
At last a sensible post on here well said cranny
Love the tranny comment lol

everybodys saying we need signings before saturday, wrong. we need signings yes, but its 3 days till saturday, no player that signs before saturday will even play
We know that, , but a team needs to get to know each other, , and the c/l game is next week and we know how important that is for a warchest for next season
So what happened to the signings we were "definitely signing before Thursday's Euro deadline" ? all lies
It's only Wednesday??
20 Jul 2011 13:10:34
The rumer is not correct Kenny Miller is not on his way to Cardiff and no bid has been accepted by his Club.The full picture of the jigsaw will be in place soon.
20 Jul 2011 13:08:11
Miller is off to cardiff according to bursaspor because rangers are yet again paying ridiculously low amounts of money for a player
source : STV website
20 Jul 2011 13:05:44
RANGERS WILL NOT BE SIGNING KENNY MILLER OR CARLOS CUELLAR. KENNY IS OFF TO CARDIFF AND IF CARLOS WAS SO KEEN TO SIGN IT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED BY NOW. THE FACT IS THAT HE IS HOPING A SPANISH TEAM WILL COME IN FOR HIM. DON'T KNOW BOUT U GUYS BUT I'M REALLY PIS*ED OFF BY ALL OF THIS 200K HERE , 400K THERE. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?? WE NEED MINIMUM OF 5 PLAYERS YET I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO CONFIDENCE IN THAT BEING THE CASE
20 Jul 2011 13:03:06
I recon Bursaspor are twisting things abit. They could be saying Millers off to Cardiff in order to get more money out of Gers and the fact we rejected 4 Offers from them for Whittaker... If we increase offer, I would expect Miller to sign (Hopefully)
20 Jul 2011 12:52:59
why are rangers fans wanting us to pay twice as much for a player we sold 6 months ago, and remember although he was awesome for the first half of last season i can rememeber the previous years were he was always more a hard worker than a goalscorer - i personally would like to see rangers bringing in new and up and coming players rather than ones who choose to leave us while we were in trouble. i know we haven't signed many yet but i like the way we are being prudent and are only willing to pay the right price for the right players and that includes ones who actually appreciate what it is like to be a rangers player...... rant over lol
Could not agree more , well said

I got slated on hear for comments I made last few weeks, gers shd be called 2moro never comes, another day comes and still no signings, I said carlos wouldnt come got slated 4 sayin whyte never had any money, miller wont be comin, davis, jelevic, mcgregor, naismith and whittker will be sold 2 pay 30 million TAX BILL,

Check out wiki, says miller plays for cardiff. I know folk come on here and say that all the time and it really p!sses me off. Nip over and check iot now.
Anybody can alter wiki ya muppet
So what, you could change messi's page and then claim he plays for hamilton.

These disgraceful bids r turning our great club into a laughing stock
20 Jul 2011 12:45:49
Iv sent in a few posts now n they hav never bn put on.
Iv bn all for givin whyte a chance, web tho iv bn very disappointed with transfer dealings so far, by this is now gettin beyond a f***in joke. 400000 euros is a disgraceful offer for miller, 1 million euros is a bargain for him. Ano we sold him for a lot less bt he only had a few months left on his contract, he's now on a three yr 50grand a week deal, get a f***in grip whyte.
Once again we r gonny lose out out on a player to a pishy championship team, Conway, danns etc mite not hav bn great player by miller wud hav bn an excellent signin to hav bk n hopefully whyte gets the finger oot
20 Jul 2011 12:41:39
a seen that have they not offered balottelli silva aswell?
20 Jul 2011 12:40:27
5 million pounds originally, plus another 15 million. 20 million yet we still can't bid 1 million for a man who scored 21 goals in half a season. Stop trying to get players for much less and get the finger out Whyte
Whilst it would be great to get miller back I think our priority is a centre half and I think we will beat the deadline for that one.
We have plenty up front to see us through to completion of the miller deal.
20 Jul 2011 12:28:42
can people calm down about miller he wants to come to rangers NOT cardiff he would maybe wait for rangers to get a bid ACCEPTED then go to rangers simple as that
Calm down nothing, , the season starts THIS Saturday not a couple of weeks time EVERY point is needed you only have to look at how close the last few championships have been to see how important it is that we get some new faces in, , this is getting desperate beleive me mate
20 Jul 2011 12:23:42
Why can't Malky Mackay get his own transfer targets? Getting beyond a joke, they haven't been linked to any of the players until we declare our interest.
20 Jul 2011 12:13:45
I'm disgusted with the way things are being done at rangers we need miller and more b4 sat and they try and get him for penny's got a bad feeling the directors who left wer right about whyte he better get it together or he will surely feel the wrath of the fans on sat I don't think he's goin to spend any money and tied our big players up to long contracts so he can pocket the cash when he sells them on if we don't get decent players in by aug we should hit him by the only means he understands financially
Take it easy dude, it's financial chess. We're in no position to wade in waving cash about. It'll all work out, I still have faith.

ffs rangers get a grip ..another player lost ..i hope mr mccoist has a few rabbits to pull out his top hat or there will be a few unhappy bears
20 Jul 2011 12:04:20
Yet again more bids being rejected, i bet Whyte has no intention of buying players & after the Thursdays deadline for registering players, he will come out & say he tried his best. I expect people to come on here & have a dig at me & say things like "we don't need to sign anyone" or " we're the champions" or "who do you want us to sign" or "do you want us to sign people for the sake of it" say what you want, bottom line is, we NEED players in NOW.
20 Jul 2011 12:03:43
methinks a protest outside the main doors of Ibrox this afternoon is called for, , pay the going rate for players that we need is not too much to ask for, , a feww thousand turning up might just gee up Mr.Whyte to opening his purse, , what do you think lads??
Yes i think your right mate, , tell me when and me and the troops will be there
As much as I hate the idea of protests we need to do sumthing this is beyond a joke we need players and now I don't think we will get any pre season a shambles and our great clubs getting dragged through the gutter if protests are what it takes then so b it
Yes ur rite
Are you serious?...protests? what are we protesting about? The man has come in and wiped our debt, secured our best players and is trying to sign others. It's like listening to a bunch of spoilt bairns on here sometimes.

yeah guys you'd might not take this serious but i followed football stars on twitter and was following bedoya a while back and noticed he kept posting call of duty mw2 pictures so I added him and USA striker Charlie Davies , play only a couple of times online with them and bedoya seemed like a good guy , changed to xbox but a forgot bedoyas psn but Charlie davies is ( chuckdeezy10) check bedoyas twitter from a couple months back ;) hope he sings tbh , 100% truth
20 Jul 2011 11:34:36
The Rangers boss also thinks the club will be priced out of the chase to land Ado Den Haag winger Wesley Verhoek.
"We've looked at him but I think the fee would rule us out, " he said.
Taken from News and i'm disappointed by this as he seemed a really interesting player but who knows what will happen by Saturday, WATP
Against malamo we will win with our squad as it stands . But wee defo need players theres no exuse now .
What happened to the extra £15 million?its not there thats why we cant afford it.
20 Jul 2011 10:38:21
I wish I could bet my house on bursa rejecting our miller bid and I'm afraid the culler saga is dragging on far to long for it to be a positive outcome. I'm sure I read ally saying last week that we would have signings in the next 24/48 hours maybe worth just keeping his mouth shut until there is something to talk about. So I'm expecting no one in apart from Ortiz before the euro deadline against Malmo I just hope we get thru because if we dont whyte and McCoist are going to feel the pressure from the fans early doors.
20 Jul 2011 10:11:39
well thats 24 and 48hrs and still no closer to any bodies coming in before sat . i wish rangers would just shut up until the deals are done instead of filling all these hacks in the press with time scales ..but it looks as if its as we are for the hearts game . still get 3 points
Its football agents that inform the press mate. They want more attention for their client so they can generate interest from other clubs and get a bigger comission. Agents have completely shagged the life out of the football transfer market. Theyve inflated wages to burstin point, which increases transfer value as your havin to buy out a contract worth 8 million aswell as payin for the player. Agents should be monitered more heavily, or preferably banned. ha.

Was at the game last night and 1st half was encouraging but the 2nd half just fuelled my belief that our squad is nowhere near deep enough. Salim Kerkar isnt a footballer. Gregg Wylde couldny cross the road. Beattie looks like he's running on quick sand. Only positive was John Fleck who kept things simple, he NEEDS a prolonged run in the team.
I think Wylde was just a bit rusty, he's a good wee player. Some of his runs and crosses last season were outstanding. Kerkar is p1sh right enough.

I thought hemmings movement and willingness to look fothe ball was positive agree wi kerkar rotten though thought hutton looked good
Thomas lookd good i thought , and the old guy at the back wisny holf bad
Aye, Fleck kept it simple right enough. Especially both times he got caught in possession of the ball in stupid areas of the park with men ahead of him and put us under pressure.
Honestly, I wish folk would get of the Fleck bandwagon. He has ability but theres far too much pressure on him from folk wanting him in the team then expecting him to be Zidne.
At this moment in time Wylde, Hutton and especially Ness are all ahead of him in the pecking order based on merit. Thats not a bad thing as it should take some of the unnecessary pressure off the boy.
From whats been said about fleck its his off field attitude thats the problem lads.

Carlos n Kenny miller won't sign b4 deadline 2moro as they are still in Spain n turkey so don't see how they will b able to agree terms n get Medicals done b4 window closes hope ally's got sumthing up his cuff as I don't fancy playing malmo with what we have b a laughing stock to the beggars if we don't qualify steph {Ed001's Note - the window doesn't close for over a month, I am pretty sure they could fly over in less than that!}
Think he meant we need them to sign before the champions league deadline closes ED.
Still think we've got enough to get past Malmo though dude.

Deadline for cl qaulifier 11pm 2moro nite I'm talking about so do u see them signing b4 that steph
Carlos is injured anyway dude, he'll no be lining up against Malmo even if he does sign.

Another day another let down lets get the deals done rangers
Easy Eeyore, you need to lay off those blues and get some uppers in ye. Need I remind you we're Champions and the Walford massive have signed no **** of any significance. They're the ones who should be wanting to end it all.
Gie the Samaritans a call and have a wee lie down

Agree celtic have signed no one of substance..but they dont have a champions league game coming up
20 Jul 2011 09:25:29
It's too quiet, and we say it every year, and it's always ok for it to be last minute....but when are we signing some players? We have been knocked back too often for my liking..even the loans we are looking at, are still not confirmed...Bartley and 2 boys from Spurs...Miller deal 'live or 'dead in the water' ? Goodwillie, do we go for him if we fail with Miller? Dutch boy Kroenke, did we bid or not? Cuellar, somebody tell us something Yes it's great news that we have extended contracts, and stabilised the current squad, but we need numbers, quantity and quality I'm not just looking at 4 in a row, hit them hard NOW, let's get 10 GBTQ
Jesus you ***** are putting a right downer on being champions for the third season in a row. Hope you all change your tune when we make our last minute signings. Cheer up, I'm about ready to hang mysel here

After watching the first half of the game last night (couldn't watch the second half), i was extremely pleased with the Rangers Team and Ally McCoist looked the part for Rangers. I enjoyed their playing style...there was a bit more of a free flowing style with Jelavic, Naismith and Davis being the key men. I would have to say that from what i saw in the first half, Rangers were running Blackpool ragged. This display only confirms my suspicion that should Rangers be allowed to join the EPL (hypothetically speaking) we would certainly be challenging for a top 4 spot. The passion at our club, the traveling fans, the history and the desire to be a GER is evident in the way we play and with the TV revenue in England, we would attract the same caliber of players that the big 4 in the EPL do. I was pleasantly surprised to see Edu and Broadfoot do well, however, i still believe they are the weak link in our Armour. David Weir was actually looking his age as well IMO. Naismith was looking fantastic as was Davis...these two along with Jelavic will make or break our SPL fight and Champions League fight, if all goes well i wouldn't be surprised if offers come in for their services at the end of this coming season...they are fantastic to our cause and long may we hold onto them.
I agree we looked pretty good in our style of play but don't get too carried away dude. It was only Blackpool in their 1st pre season game. Remember this is a team that was relegated and are now missing some of their best players who couldn't even keep them in the EPL. I agree that once in the EPL we would attract better players, have more money and eventually challenge for a top four place. That said, it's a bit naive to think that beating Blackpool last night is evidence of being EPL challengers.
I admire your enthusiasm and positivity though. There's a bit to much doom and gloom on here for a champions page
Major signings today bears mark my words, I'm in the know...Durrantys maw is friends with my Auntie Senga. They cannae stop gossiping about potential signings at the bingo.

R U Serious, Blackpool have just been relegated and lost there 2 best players, are 1 week into their pre season, If what your saying is true then CL semi finals should be a realistic aim and the SPL should be wrapped up by Christmas, Get Real.
Let's be realistic mate , doubt rangers could get into the top 6 or 7 with the amout of money they spend ...
Of course they could and you Rangers fans who doubt their desire to win (even with no money) are deluded Rangers Fans. We won the League with NO money and selling our best players, we should have progressed in the Europa League if it weren't for dodgy refs...Rangers are far better than a lot of people give credit for and an extra £60mil per year in revenue from the EPL would most certainly allow rangers to expand and progress. After a few seasons they would be near the top of the league. Blackpool or not, Scottish opposition have shown that with next to no money they can challenge even the greatest teams in England on a regular basis for a share of the points.
Notable examples...
Newcastle - Rangers
Man U - Rangers (twice)
Man U - Celtic (twice)
Liverpool - Celtic (twice)
Chelsea - Rangers
Arsenal - Celtic
Arsenal - Rangers
The list goes on and where we were beaten we were marginally beaten which an injection of money and proposition of EPL games would attract some very big names to our team...
Enough dreaming though, it'll never happen

Just a thought to my fellow bears, who do you think will be relegated this season, i'm going for Dun Utd.
Dunfermline i reckon. I think St.Mirren might raise a few eyebrows next season. They have made some good summer signings.
Celtic for me, just don't think they've got the bottle for a relegation battle after Lennon gets the tin tack in January.
Mon the Pars

No team that has came up has been relegated straight away for a long time. 10 years I would say so it's looking good for Dunfermline. I'm thinking st Johnstone.
20 Jul 2011 08:13:27
Maybe Rangers have already signed 2 or 3 players but won't reveal the names until after Thursdays deadline ? but if not, we might get past Malmo but whoever it is in the next round we can forget it & if we get knocked out of the CL before the group stages, then we have lost out on the revenue, what's the saying again, speculate to accumulate.
Or maybe we'll sign Cuellar, Miller, Gattuso and Bartley today, pump Malmo 4-0 on agg and begin our journey to the champions league final where we'll meet Barcalona with Messi left out as he's put in a transfer request cos he wants to sign for the Gers for nothing other than his love for the club.......yaaaaassssssss
I really need to cut back on smoking this sh1t
At least I'm a happy champion though, cheer up ya miserable ****

Once again i've put my views across & some clown has a dig at me, lol, it's a banter/rumour site. it's what ( I ) think.
Awww, sorry pal didnae mean to upset you ;) I'm just on the site a lot and the negativity seems to be increasing by the day. It's pretty frustrating considering the state we were in a few months ago. We're champions, out of debt, we have secured our best players, we're trying to sign others and we've got a pretty good champions league qualifying draw. I just dinnae see what the problem is? (in my opinion). Don't think that makes me a clown mate, just a positive supporter.
Dinnae take it so personally, it's a banter site as you rightly pointed out. Just come back with something witty rather than having a wee greet :(

Hope cuellar doesnt come back, not the type of player we should be looking at- he struggled to hold down place at villa and made a big fuss about leaving last time around
You must be a septic fan in fear of King Carlos's return. He would be great at Rangers .
Septic fan because the chap has an opinion that differs? Gi' ma heid peace.
Any self respecting gers man would know that cueller is the best defender we have seen in the SPL for the last decade to say this is not the type/calibre of player we should be signing is very uneducated i think.
20 Jul 2011 01:20:46
Did anyone watch the Blackpool game? just wondering how we played especially the defence?
Rangers dominated the match, played quite well, hard to tell as it was blackpools first game...u could tell.
Broadfoot never put a foot wrong, i was impressed with him
Even Clubfoot looked the part, pretty solid although Blackpool never offered much.
Wee question, if we sign Cuellar and keep Bougie does anyone else think that Big Davie will become more of a squad player? Whitty, Bougie, Cuellar, Papac?

For the people who don't know the Rangers game against Malmo in the qualifiers are exclusive to PREMIER SPORTS (Sky 433), just telling you because I doubt there will be much advertising as it isn't a big brand. I watched the friendly against Blackpool on it and it kept saying it was exclusive. So go to yesterdays daily record get the number and use the promo code ''Rangers'' for a months subscription for £7.99 if you're interested.
You dinnae need the code dude. Signed up yesterday on the phone for £7.99 p.m, minimum 2 month subs. Seemed awrite to me for last night, both qualifiers and the full Chelski game (not live). Not to mention watching the Market traders of Walford getting taught a lesson by Cardiff tonight.

mcgregor to go to arsenal. dont think so. recently signed a 5 year deal. if that doesnt show hes happy here i dont know what does. WATP
6 years.
Why do you think he was given a new deal?if any big bids come in for him or davis..they will be sold, thats why whyte gave them new deals in the first place.
Bit of truth in both i guess ... these players were secured at gers for the time being what it will mena is that a bid will need to be funny money for gers to accept ie 10-12m for mcgregor right now.
It would have to be really stupid money to tempt any of them away. Davis talked last night of his family being settled and happy and how he enjoys being at the club. The pair of them are going nowhere and I've happily flicked your fly out of the ointment LOL No more harbingers of doom please, onwards and upwards. Happy days
