I think bwp could be a decent spl player but not for europe though a lot of people said bougie wasnt rangers class when walter signed him from english lower league but turned out ok and bwp is scoring well for plymouth just an opinion

Tim Matavz - Just another Filip Sebo.

Maybe some truth in Evans or possibly a long shot at Michael Owen - although i and most bears doubt Owen i heard that he has only 6 months in his contract and in order to gain an extension must prove his worth to Sir Alex.

Walter himself said 2 loan deals are what he is looking at, so this talk of "new funds" being available due to the takeover happening next week is hard to believe. And he said it's a defender and a striker he is looking at, so these people saying Boyd and Novo and simply living in the past. Both would NOT make Rangers a better team, Novo - as much as the commitment is there i believe the talent is not. Walter himself would know that youth and the future is where the success of rangers lies. Boyd -as much as he scored goals much of his success was beside Kenny Miller who has just parted company with Rangers. Plus Boyd was a lackadaisical and lazy player who rarely seemed interested in Rangers even after being told by a LEGEND in Ally McCoist how to better his game, who's advice he seemingly disregarded.

Walter is shrewd in the market and buying BWP would be a waste of money in my opinion and i hope in his opinion. I believe he (Walter) will look to the EPL for his loan signings, so look down there at the likes of Jason Roberts, and other fringe strikers. Defence wise i don't know where he will look, however i would like to see someone like Berra.

I really doubt Wolves would be willing to loan out Berra considering he plays almost every week. Jason Roberts is another lazy striker as Sam Allardyce even said about him whilst he was his manager. Who wants Owen he would arrive and then join Andy Webster in the treatment room. I would take Novo back if you look at what Walter said he wants a roward who is a 'utility' player I'm assuming he means someone who can play up front or from the wing. Don't know if you remember or not Novo got one season up front with Prso and scored 25 goal (roughly) then he became a RM. Novo and Jelavic up front.

Walter Smith says he wants to sign an attacker & a defender. Does that mean he's going to sign David Goodwillie & his lawyer.

Get your heids oot yir jacksies eh, the only reason people like Novo, Boyd, Thompson, Mendes, etc left Ibrox was plain and simple, they all thought they were better players than they actually were. Rangers couldn't pay them what they thought they were worth, lets face it, Rangers offered them all deals, just like they did with kiss the badge Miller, they all go on to kiss another teams badge. To go back to Rangers, would be them admitting they have failed elswhere. If they all loved Rangers as much as they said, why then in times of crisis, when they fully know the club is skint, why do they ask for more if the know the pot is empty? All goldiggers in my opinion, ta ta to them

Just reading on the offical club web site there that walters stunned at yesterdays defeat.in little over a year we have dispensed with the services of 2 players that was reaping us 50 goals plus a season, we spent 4m on a yet to prove himself spl player shold we not have invested this 4m in securing the services of boyd and millar for the next few years.we had the answer and some one gave it away

23 Jan 2011 18:26:31

Listen stop coming on and posting total rubbish about players like Riordan and Jonny Evans. Its complete garbage! Tim Matavz will not be coming either I would love to know where that came from. .
Rangers will make 2 loan signings - 1 is in Glasgow now and the other will not be done till last minute. Only way any other business can be done will be if Adam moves from Blackpool. . Also due to poor ticket sales from season ticket holders for Old Firm match in 2 weeks income is again very tight.

23 Jan 2011 18:18:17

Don't talk carp about Gary hooper being best forward in spl , jelavic will be 10times better , away back to your Celtic page and stop coming on herE trying to wind it up , away and sign another x epl dud!

23 Jan 2011 18:06:12

Not bad business at all at the time Adam was worse then useless for gers change of scene done him good, good luck to him

23 Jan 2011 17:54:34

'miller will not be sold in jan' lie martin bain

'Miller should have been sold in the summer for at least £2million as he knew then that all we could afford to offer him was a paycut of £7k per week. Bad management by smith & bain.

To give mcculloch a two year extension to 2013 is a joke as he is already breathing out a* e after 20 mins these days. although he took a paycut he is still on approx £15k per week

All these rumours about Tim Matavz, i think my fellow gers fans are getting ahead of themselves. He's valued at roughly 3m. Where are we gettin this money from lads? n whoever replies its a loan deal, come on. hes scoring goals quite regularly over in holland, and is a future international star for his country. Other european clubs without our troubles are looking at him. Why would his club allow him to leave on loan? Doesnt make sense.

I wish this were true, as having looked him up on utube got the same feeling about him when i first saw jela, but we just aint got a chance in hell with this one. Stuck with beattie i think guys, sadly.

Announcement tomorrow regarding takeover of Rangers; if not tomorrow then before Wednesday.

Derek Riordan heavily linked to Rangers - contract running out, 200k fee or pre contract move.

Jonny Evans looking for loan move to Rangers until end of the season, Man United to pay wages for duration of loan.

Tim Matavz also heavily linked through Dutch media. FC Groningen's board are saying that the interest is true. A move is unlikely though, player to comment on rumours in an interview later on this evening.

Oguchi Onyweu will not move to Rangers on loan as he has joined FC Twente.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Celtic - Gary Hooper attracting heavy interest from down south. A move is more likely in the summer.

Cheers ed. The only thing we have going for us with regards to the matavz rumour is, unless im mistaken, groningen are managed or coached by peter huistra, who smith signed and mcoist played along side. Now im not suggesting that groningen would help rangersbout because of this, i just think that might be where the rumour has came from. I personally don't believe it, but like i said earlier, it won't go away. I have a feelin the nacho novo rumour may be a little closer to truth, ive just been hearing his family are still in scotland and he stays in a hotel on his own in spain. He also trained with rangers over the festive period. Novo-jelavic might just work, jelavic is similar to prso, n novo certainly enjoyed his time up front with the big croat legend. Heard a scary one too, we're actively trying to get rid of mcgregor? Personally id sell him no probs, but it would just show you how desperate we are, havin to actually try to sell one of supposed "prize assets"

Why would we want wee nacho back.no disrespect to him .or wright philips. . we are the mighty glasgow rangers. .not queens park rangers

23 Jan 2011 15:03:18

Was kenny not contracted to us for the rest of the season? and will it not cost us the bulk of the 400k to gamble on another striker to get the goals to see us over the finishing line.maybe we should have kept the real deal.?

23 Jan 2011 14:41:27

We all no wee nacho wud run his heart and soul out for rangers.so we got rid of him.as far as the bank is concerned trophys don't pay the intrest.transfer fees do.wer gona have to accept that untill someone buys our clubcan you explain to me ed why we sold our top scorer half way through the season.? {ed's note - because his contract was nearly up and he was not going to sign a new one.}

The guy talking about Novo coming back - you're dreaming mate, cos he's not. The folk talking about Boyd coming back - you're dreaming, cos he's not. WHY after 6 months would a player take a considerable pay cut to rejoin Rangers, who cannot even afford their contract? Why do you think they were allowed to leave in the first place? Do you seriously think we'd pay a fee for somebody who's contract was allowed to run out in our current financial position? We just let our top scorer go for £400k rather than lose wim for nothing for gods sake - Move on, people! Just for the record; Gattuso, Lovenkrands, Cuellar, Vignal, Danny Wilson, Van Bronkhorst, Van Vossen and Terry Hurlock ARE NOT rejoining either - It's just embarrasing - i thought the schools would be back by now, to be quite honest. You sound as bad as Celtic fans and their consistant 'links' to Robbie Keane and other ageing EPL journeymen.

I believe the site is called rangers RUMOURS for a reason, or perhaps I am mistaken. If you don't want to read the supposed "embarrasing" statements then why don't you sit at the rangers homepage and read facts and then you'll know when somebody does sign. Until then don't have a go at anybody else.

Rumours till' I die.

To big doom and gloom , we will be making 2 signing this week , one forward and a defender , I would not want Boyd back anyway over rated , any half decent forward should score in a rangers team , but that's more to do with the state of Scottish football! Any rangers did make a last ditch 25k per weekfor miller and he is not worth anywhere near that kind of cash

And they could throw in central defender Andy Webster as part of the deal.

I would love the rumours about Nacho Novo to be true because we all know what kind of player he is, he would run his heart and soul out for Rangers all game. Ed, you have anything more on the rumour?

{Editor's Note: I didn't know there was a rumour?}

I know that the article doesn't have much info but lets hope its true.

'Nacho Novo is set for a dramatic return to Rangers.
The Ibrox favourite is being lined up as a loan signing until the end of the season to tide Rangers over after they lost leading scorer Kenny Miller to Bursaspor.' - Sunday Post website

The truth is rangers are the worst we won't win the title stop saying we will its all crap , you can't win a title without a proper team , rangers team is made up of youth players like jamie ness and fleck aswell as old grandas like david weir I even remeber in the chamipons league some kid called cole got a start against budsaoper what is smith playing at if he says cole is so good why is he not on the team everyweek

23 Jan 2011 00:33:12

Look this is the sad truth we arent going to get anyone on loan everyone is living in dream world we don't even have enough money to sign david goodwillie whos worth under 2m explain this all you people who arw writing about players from united on loan and boyd comming back on loan its all bulls* t

23 Jan 2011 00:24:46

Regarding Tim Matavz, if FM2010 is anything to go by, he is a phenomenal striker who performed wonders for my Gers team. After my first season, Everton offered me £10m for him. So needless to say, if this rumour is legit, we should all be VERY excited. .
