Cheers Goalie.

I wouldn't say I was a lee Wallace fan but nobody can deny the man stuck by the club through our darkest days yet I'm seeing posts to swap him for a guy who couldn't leave fast enough. I hope Lafferty doesn't come back to us main reason don't think he's the answer.

29 Jul 2018 01:18:59
Jaws, if Wallace is surplus to requirements and Lafferty is as much as our budget allows then i see this as a positive move.

Did you see Brenda seen in gay bar? Is that timophobic?

28 Jul 2018 13:21:14
osijek player saying we were lucky. they had more shots, corners etc. so they clearly were the better team. fact is we had more goals and won the game and they keep going on about beating psv. this and that we beat sporting lisbon, lyon, bremen, fiorintina doesn't mean nothing now. we will beat osijek and put them in their place next week, am sure of it.

28 Jul 2018 16:22:22
I hope so they had a really good midfielder that left back is also decent and there winger kept going and never let the head go down there weak point was there striker.

28 Jul 2018 19:09:59
They are a decent outfit and will be tough to shut out but I have a growing confidence in our defence and think we can knock one on the break. We just need to get through by any means, hopefully get a look at big Sadiq at some point!

28 Jul 2018 19:11:56
I would be happy with a draw but I am quite sure most on here wouldnr.

28 Jul 2018 19:12:06
Agreed STB72 hopefully this is a market we will be keeping a keen eye on in the future.

28 Jul 2018 12:28:56
Is Garner still with Ipswich? If so, why doesn't SG go after him and get him back. He might revel alongside Morelos plus the midfield service he'd get now?

28 Jul 2018 13:04:36
Between this and your constant push of Hardie, fancy joining my fantasy football league mate? With your taste in players would be easy money 😂.

28 Jul 2018 13:59:27
New topic. What would be your 1st team made up of former flops? DOIGER Utd.

28 Jul 2018 15:48:28
Doiger no just no! done nothing first time too unreliable.

28 Jul 2018 19:51:57
lol

dont post here regularly but read every morning and between doigers crazy posts which leave me wondering what players he actually watche at home games however the prized one of the lot is supercoopereleven with his miraculous predictions ( i'm sure 1 was actually correct and what a ticket he turned out to be ) poll after poll and his latest one, despite many of us reading the site for years claiming he always rated waghorn as a top player.

no wonder the other mob ( of which my best friend is one and continually laughs at most on here ) extracts the urine from me every chance possible when you read some of the posts.

interestingly one poster i noticed, kev iirc posted honestly about thursday nights game and was absolutely shot down despite putting across some very valid points and asking some serious question. still all is fine yet another rat is coming home to earn some more of the blue pound despite jumping ship to line his own pockets.

oh how we have fallen and being frank its embaressing to see the majority of our support welcome these guys home with open arms.

28 Jul 2018 20:34:50
Given the English market it would cost about five million to sign garner.

29 Jul 2018 01:41:35
Garner? You having a laugh. He didn't set the Heather on fire last. Hard man, no skill or temperament whatsoever.

29 Jul 2018 08:43:36
Yeah, my dream front three would be Garner, Waghorn and Hardie lol. This site is called Rangers 'Banter', defined in the dictionary as 'Good-humoured, playful, or teasing conversation'. Calm down everyone.

29 Jul 2018 15:31:36
I’d take him back before Lafferty however with the market in England, the fact that he done well last season and the Waghorn transfer value to consider he’s probably a £15m player now 😂😂 in all honestly, we can’t afford anymore transfer fees!

28 Jul 2018 11:45:02
For all those who doubt kyle lafferty just have a look at the day we wrapped up the league within 7 mins at killie, big man was class. He knows what it's like to win trophies at this club and the standards expected. I seem to remember him always popping up with important goals and if he sticks one in at the tattie dome in September he'll be a hero, i'd just have him back for the song lol.

28 Jul 2018 12:08:32
i was there that day Perth - what a day!

we were sitting 2 rows from front &’laff nearly jumped over us celebrating 1st goal

i’ve still got bruises on my shins from the bouncy that day.

28 Jul 2018 13:02:06
What a day that was, 💙⚽️❤️.

28 Jul 2018 14:41:15
The problem with that. 3 seasons in a row. the last 3 games of the season he turned it on mizt notibly hibs united and kille away. Rest of season he was garbage.

29 Jul 2018 00:54:32
I agree always seemed to come good end of season but can't be worse than last year.

28 Jul 2018 09:50:33
With regards to the Lafferty deal, we all know what we will be getting and what to expect. Therefore there is no risk at all. I have been skeptical in the past when we have been linked with him, but I am warming to the idea that it might be a good signing!

28 Jul 2018 10:59:01
I think the jury's still out on the merits of a Lafferty return. Would any one of our three main rivals bid for him? I think not. Yeah we know what we're getting and he's not a bad player but our ambitions should be higher and I doubt he'd be happy as a bench player. Makes some sense but I hoped for better.

28 Jul 2018 12:22:44
Why does Waghorn going for 8m Mena that out club is being mismanaged from above He was stinking in the EPL So he had to move on

He had a decent season with a smaller club with less pressure in the Championship and he is now worth 8m (in which we will receive close to 1m for him)

Unfortunately, this is the going rates down south Sky do lucrative deals meanwhike get pittance from Sky and this is what it results in a decent season and all of a sudden stupid money or over the odds in transfer fees

The players will also see it as a big opportunity in the Championship to prove to themselves and no doubt Waghorn fancied himself to do well and he succeeded

At Ipswitch there is no pressure their goal is to stay in the Championship Nothing more.

wasting your time explaining this to anyone. the ones with sense agree with what you say the rest, well you have seen what's been said.

It is funny to see a certain club in the SPL complain about not getting enough away tickets to Ibrox.

It is the clubs perogative to do what they like with allocations but for a certain club who trash talks Ibrox constantly, trash talks the club and even attempts to refer to the club as a ‘new club with no history’ to complain that it takes away from ‘the status of the game as a sporting occasion’ is pitiful.

One minute the club are ‘dead’ the next Aberdeen are the second best club in Scotland but now Rangers are ‘ruining the status of a great sporting occasion’. Which one is it? They seem to want it both ways.

28 Jul 2018 10:01:38
"The Glasgow Derby" is what they've been calling it now.

28 Jul 2018 11:13:46
And going by their logic, the old firm died in 1994!

28 Jul 2018 11:26:14
I campaigned long and weary to get their allocation to be cut because the demand from Rangers fans for tickets was so great I couldn't understand why we gave them a whole stand at our expense, that said 800 is on the low side. The thing is there is nothing to stop them from giving us our full allocation which would uphold ‘the status of the game as a sporting occasion’ for at least two games a season but have chosen to be childish and cut our tickets to 800. What they are actually saying is "we would rather sell tickets to Rangers fans at our own expense" where we are now saying "we will sell tickets to Rangers fans at their expense".

28 Jul 2018 08:49:09
I think we should swap Wallace and or Halliday for Lafferty and go for Moult. I would also take the man city boy on loan to prove fitness. That for me would be the transfer window complete. Remember John Hartson failing our medical and we all know how that panned out.

28 Jul 2018 14:40:20
Its ok saying let's swap but Hearts probably don’t want either of them. Hearts will hold out for the price they want like they did with Jamie Walker.

28 Jul 2018 06:25:26
Ive just read Hearts have put a £750,000 price on Lafferty. I would not give Hearts that figure. i'd offer Wallace or another player who is surplus to requirements. Or give Hearts hee haw and go for Moult.

28 Jul 2018 07:31:10
Agree with you goalie. Wouldn't give hearts anywhere near 750k, for kyle lafferty! If it was a straight cash deal, taking into account, that lafferty has only 1 year remaining on his contract, i'd offer 500k tops!
The other scenario would be 300k + lee hodson or possibly a straight swap deal with lee wallace!

28 Jul 2018 08:04:46
Straight swap with fabio cardoso more like.

28 Jul 2018 08:26:53
Does anyone know if Hearts want Wallace? Why would a club take a player who hasn’t played for nearly a year?

28 Jul 2018 00:52:55
New poster here. love to read the posts and just wanted to share. just watched Paul Gascoigne- The Rangers years again on YouTube. What a great reminder of who we were, who we are and who we will be again! Amazing to think of the quality we had then. Gazza, , Laudrup etc.
