Steven Gerrard is contemplating offering walter smith, an advisory role at rangers!
Gerrard will speak to smith and souness when he comes back home from Spain, on Wednesday. Gerrard wants to speak with smith on his return, with the rangers team on Wednesday! He wants to pick the brains of proper rangers legends, to help plot and end the celtic dominance! Good on gerrard for thinking this way! It doesn't show any weakness whatsoever, to pick the brains of a club legend like smith, who's been there, done it big style and got the t shirt!



24 Jun 2018 02:46:11
I don't post too often but that is a total load of pish.



24 Jun 2018 07:42:46
I suggest you have a wee read at this morning's newspapers TC71, before surmising anyone is talking a load of pish! Again someone on here with a rather large gub, who's got a big, fat goose egg all over his/ her face!



24 Jun 2018 07:55:41
That's not what he said supercoop. He actually said he would speak to souness and Smith and seek there advice. I've just read the article and it doesn't state anywhere that he is going to offer an advisory role to Smith.



24 Jun 2018 08:45:30
Calm doon girls!

90% of Rangers stories in the press are made up or exaggerated. why do we have to get our knickers in a twist about every single one?

If the SUN claimed that Pena was on his way back and was to be our captain there’d be a load of numpties on here calling for the board and SG to be sacked

Settle down and ignore to bull****



24 Jun 2018 09:03:22
36thulsterdivision, i think you'll find pal, that WAS what gerrard said! He said he also wouldn't rule out, offering walter smith an advisory role within the club! Everything i quoted in my post is spot on my friend!



24 Jun 2018 09:18:40
Coop don’t let them annoy you and this forum is for guys like ourselves who like talking about the Teddies!
Some people just like shooting people down as it’s just the way of social media. Onwards and upwards to the Glasgow Rangers🇬🇧



24 Jun 2018 09:32:21
Have a read at this morning's sunday sun 36thulsterdivision, regarding gerrard contemplating offering walter smith an advisory role within our club!



24 Jun 2018 11:23:32
I also read a quote from Stevie saying he was going to talk to Walter : Souness and murty . I think this is brilliant and shows the calliber ofvthe man when he is willing to pick even murtys brain for a lead . take what you can use and disregard the rest let's GO STEVO



24 Jun 2018 11:31:49
Supercoop there must be different takes on Gerrards quote depending on what papers you read. But I unlike some on here appreciate your comments on this page your obviously a true blue nose like myselfy



24 Jun 2018 11:38:31
Again coop, just because its in the sun (of all papers 😂) does not mean its true. Having said that, how great would it be if walter was back at the club in some capacity. As for egg on the face, that's a pot kettle statement is it not. I would run out of fingers and toes if I was to count how many times you've had egg on your face with the amount of daft things you have said over the years. Don't get so defensive mate when someone does not agree with you👍



24 Jun 2018 11:48:14
Fair play yately and 36thulsterdivision! There's most certainly a few different types on here, that's for sure guys! Like you two and the vast majority on here, we're all passionate bears, who only want the best for the club we go and watch and love! Then there's the minority on here, who because they've not got anything to add themselves,
doubt other rangers supporters who do! Yately my friend, there's no chance of them EVER being able to bother me mate! Cheers for the backing anyway buddy, much appreciated!



24 Jun 2018 15:26:14
Coop uv basically just quoted what today’s tabloids have printed! The story is hardly a revelation as other previous managers have used Walters wisdom and advice. I’d be mega surprised if Stevie G didn’t speak to these people!



24 Jun 2018 15:54:29
Scotty123,of course i posted what i read from the newspapers regarding this! Did i not say as much quoting the sunday sun newspaper? When i read this i just posted to share it with fellow bears! Where's the problem or big deal?



24 Jun 2018 23:42:57
No problem or big deal mate. Think u need to chill! As I said Walter isn’t far from Ibrox or training centre and it’s not big news or a revelation. Stevie G will also be tapping into Klopps knowledge and expertise. Ignore the press as they don’t have a clue what rangers or Stevie G is upto since the mole has gone . business is being done the way it used to be and should be now 👍🏼



25 Jun 2018 00:29:12
Scoop making it up as usual.



25 Jun 2018 05:09:02
Paper talk was quoted. Looks very true to me. Walter last manager to win title. Who wouldn't talk to him all day long? The bickering on here is unreal.



23 Jun 2018 18:17:36
I'm assuming by the lack of outgoings that's Gerrard and his backroom staff are also assessing each player whilst in spain.

Bet your bottom dollar within 7-10 days of returning from Spain there will have been a huge chunk of players moved on.

I'm saying anywhere between 5-7 players.

And a good 5-6 more will follow before transfer window closes.



23 Jun 2018 18:48:35
Hodson definitely one of them lol



23 Jun 2018 19:28:58
To move a player on, you need a team interested in the player, you don’t just pay them off for being crap



23 Jun 2018 22:36:37
I think the lack of outgoings is more to do with the quality of who we need rid of, we signed platers under Warburton/ Pedro who were just now good enough, they are on good wages and hard to shift



25 Jun 2018 00:25:26
Wages will be the big stumbling block players still need to agree to leave



23 Jun 2018 18:12:59
Not too sure where all these Lafferty rumors are coming from. I've no managed to find any reliable sources stating that we are even interested.



23 Jun 2018 18:57:21
Probably a chap called Kyle



24 Jun 2018 07:57:34
Well we could do worse he scored a lot of goals in a poor defensive hearts team last year. Including goals against celtic something our star striker couldn't manage.



24 Jun 2018 13:07:47
Poor defensive Hearts team? Didn't they go multiple games without defeat and barely conceding until we beat them 2-0 at Ibrox? Think he could still do the job though.



23 Jun 2018 17:16:59
Has anyone else noticed the pattern in the new signings and others targeted? Katic, Goldson, McGregor, McBurnie, Sadiq, possibly Lafferty, all well over six foot. Clearly an issue noticed by Stevie



23 Jun 2018 17:56:16
Good shout mate you’re only 3 weeks late



23 Jun 2018 18:32:19
Is McGregor well over 6 foot?



23 Jun 2018 18:33:57
I'm sure he's just over 6



23 Jun 2018 23:37:29
you get the point saaaaarf end



24 Jun 2018 07:58:30
When did we sign mcburnie. Must of missed that 1



23 Jun 2018 14:26:49
Windas should be selling for for 10 mill if they are getting 7 for armstrong 😂😂



23 Jun 2018 14:39:00
Behave yourself he's a 20 minute player hopefully Gerrard makes him a 10 million player



23 Jun 2018 15:52:45
Haha £7mil for Armstrong. it'll be undisclosed, in installments with numerous clauses won't reach half of it



24 Jun 2018 08:20:31
It’s £4m. He wants to play down south and not be another ‘hero’ like Scott Brown.



23 Jun 2018 13:41:19
We should keep Windass and morelos, if they have a good season and we play well in Europe then we will start to see bids on what the player is worth. With a good preseason we will see them at there best.



23 Jun 2018 18:15:00
damo666 if they have a good season and we do well in Europe, why would we consider selling them?



23 Jun 2018 13:31:05
I'm genuinely happy about Brandon Barker on loan lad has much experience at this level in a decent enough Hibs side that took 5 points off us last season he will be adequate back up and I hope we get the option to sign him up long term could be a good successor to Murphy the lad can play the league games when Murphy's been. on European duty big thumbs up for Mark Allen



23 Jun 2018 14:19:07
They took 7 Pts off us



23 Jun 2018 14:41:15
I stand corrected I forgot about the Ryan Jack red card game. Proves that he CAN deliver at this level though



23 Jun 2018 16:35:31
How many games did barker start against us wasn’t a starter every week for hibs



23 Jun 2018 18:17:22
Gets man barker seems like an impact player something we don't have, a game changer if you like. maybe a starter if he had a good run of games injury free. remember hubs tend to sacrifice an attacker to flood their midfield



23 Jun 2018 21:10:39
Bgate w I get the impact player thought but SimplyTheBest72 to state because they took 7 points off is it’s shiws what he can do correct me if I’m wrong but I don’t think barker influenced any them games and I don’t think hibs sacrificed any attackers against us as they attacked us as we where crap



23 Jun 2018 13:15:54
Seeing a lot off people discuss what there thoughts are on the window and who else they think we need to bring in etc. if we do bring in umar and Baker on Loan personally I feel we need 2 more signings BUT they have to marquee.

1. A quality Striker who has experience at a good level if we have to splash the cash then so be it!

2. Quality pacy Winger who can challenge Candias and if not even start over him if he’s a quality signing again if we need to spend money then so be it as our wingers we only have candies, Murphy and Arfeild but he’s better suited as a Centre attacking role, hope middlton gets his chance as he looks really promising but again I feel if we bring in a winger with really qaulity then it’ll raise the standerd even more.

After that we can put our focus on getting rid off the dead wood I. E Herrera Hodson Forrester Hailiday Cardoso Foderingham.

Last thing al add would be good if stevie g makes most off the World Cup and has a look at a winger or striker, I’ve been really impressed with some off the African wingers like jhanbakesh from Iran and Warda from Egypt who Likely aren’t going to cost a lot, just a suggestion btw!

Sorry for the post being long btw, but yeh looking forward to next season now has a real sense of stability and Challenge to it and who else we may bring in. as stevie g seys LET’S GO!



23 Jun 2018 14:42:14
Again Foderingham isn't dead wood just surplus to requirements



23 Jun 2018 16:33:25
fordingham isn't rangers class, its amazing how he dives theatrically after the ball goes into the net. at rangers we have been blessed with great keepers, woods, goram, chabaunier, mcgregor, klos. there's other guys to follow hodson, halliday, herrara, carduso, forester. wage bill reduced replaced by better in what we have got rid off, london jock



23 Jun 2018 18:29:05
Don't understand this give Windlass another season stuff. Sure he'll be under new manager but still don't think will bring him anywhere near gers class.



23 Jun 2018 18:37:13
2nd top scorer from midfield and you write him off already. Behave.



23 Jun 2018 21:44:38
Iran is not in Africa! Jeeso



23 Jun 2018 23:17:17
Yeh mate realized it’s in Asia, definitely not one off my best moments, my bad aha 🙈



23 Jun 2018 11:18:08
Im reading a lot of posts regarding Tav. I think Rangers will sell him if the price is right. Ed, could you run a poll please? Do you think Tav will be sold, Yes or No?



{Ed033's Note -


Tav Poll

23 Jun 2018 11:48:51
Could Ed create another poll, if tav stays who will be right back tav or Flanagan?



{Ed033's Note -


Tav or Flanagan Poll

23 Jun 2018 14:26:15
Flanagan played his best football for Liverpool at left back soAbe decline John who needs to watchout



23 Jun 2018 09:39:39
See Roma have signed justin kluivert. Surely this knocks sadiq further down the pecking order and might help finalise our loan. With ses and dzeko already in front of him if he's any good hopefully stick in a buy out clause



23 Jun 2018 09:08:53
Ok just signed up for Rangers Tv and very surprised £50 for the year I'd got it in my head it was £6 a week lol.
With Barker now likely and Ejaria already in midfield WHY? I can't see either as first choice in their positions. WE have Middleton and Kelly, (maybe more) our own youngsters, I honestly don't get these 2. Parent clubs will be demanding they get some game time.
Very Very happy with our transfers but I can't find any reason for these 2.



23 Jun 2018 09:17:43
Barker could be made permanent do you see Ejaria breaking into Liverpool I don't so if he impresses here goes to Liverpool then we sign him up on a free when his contract expires



23 Jun 2018 09:20:59
I know we need cover but I'd argue; Arfield, Candieas, Murphy, Rossiter, Jack, Windass and Docherty all before them in the pecking order again Why?



23 Jun 2018 10:05:08
Because these players were not good enough last season.



23 Jun 2018 11:39:57
we have bodies and numbers which is good, BUT we still need that guy who can dictate the game, don't see it in what we have in midfield so far. i realy want somebody who can stick the boot in as well as play. londonjock



23 Jun 2018 15:37:43
Simplythbest72, Ejaria has just signed a 4 year deal at Liverpool before he signed on loan, so unless he’s on a long loan deal I doubt he will be here unless we pay money for him



23 Jun 2018 18:17:26
Bee82

Arfield was at Burnley last season.
Candieas-work rate 100%.
Murphy - 16 games 4 goals and 7 assists.
Windass- 13 goals 7 assists.
Rossiter- quality midfielder if we can keep him match fit.
Jack - Was out injured for a good part of the season but needs to keep his discipline.
Docherty - taking time to adjust playing for Rangers
The statement that these players were not good enough last season is questionable especially Candieas Murphy and Windass.



23 Jun 2018 08:50:04
I'm going to be in Liverpool and Southport on the 12th July can anyone recommend a good bar to watch the game in Liverpool?



23 Jun 2018 10:59:00
Yeh. Any bar outside Liverpool.



23 Jun 2018 13:27:18
Go to the Derry Club.



23 Jun 2018 07:42:19
The Record has suggested BT sport are looking to televise our europa league away leg, but I am assuming Rangers tv will be showing it anyway?



23 Jun 2018 09:04:47
Rangers tv will most likely show it but if BT want it then Rangers tv will not be able to show it to UK based viewers



23 Jun 2018 09:38:39
To be fair I would prefer it to be on BT, I just feel sometimes rangers tv is a bit cheesy when it comes to the commentary depending on which ex player is on, but as long as I can watch it am happy.



23 Jun 2018 11:11:51
Rangers tv commentary can't be as bad as Sutton and Butcher



23 Jun 2018 11:10:52
If you have a VPN change your location - you should be able to watch all games live.



23 Jun 2018 15:26:37
RFC Chris you do have a point there. All I mean I would be better off listening to a punter at the game than some of the guys on rangers tv not all but some, fair point though suttons an arrogant. . . . I'll let you finish the sentence lol
