Use our rumours form to send us rangers transfer rumours.


29 May 2016 20:12:38
Anyone think Steven Fletcher would be a good addition?



29 May 2016 23:52:06
No he's mince his goal return is a joke for a number 9 it's scary the living he has made out the game.



29 May 2016 23:58:54
I think he would be a good signing for us but I have a feeling that he could be away to the dark side this season.



30 May 2016 08:19:27
😂 fletcher is linked with that mob every transfer window. He'll sign when he's 36. Must admit I've never understood the interest as I don't rate the guy at all and that's me being polite about it. Just my opinion.



30 May 2016 12:22:28
Fletcher is a decent player but never a number nine. He just can't score goals. Maybe he could play in the hole behind, preferably at another club!



30 May 2016 18:52:37
I think he would do well for us.



29 May 2016 18:50:27
Anyone see the Millwall game today how did the boy Beevers look in defence for Millwall as we have been linked with him for a while.



29 May 2016 15:09:06
David vila contract expires 30.06.16.



29 May 2016 15:39:45
Too old now.



29 May 2016 21:48:53
I take it u have been on the booze with the nice weather? yes, he would rip this league up if we could afford him / past it . Seriously what you puffing.



30 May 2016 00:28:27
6 years younger than Kenny though eh?!



30 May 2016 07:05:44
Would be a great move and the guy would get a chance to say he played in the old firm Derby before retirement I suppose. Would finish top scorer up here with a bag over his head, although I don't know if he would appreciate being 2 footed at fir park when it's -15 on a Wednesday night during a snow storm.



29 May 2016 23:14:07
Just scored again tonight easy. I'll run amok in scottish football but way out wage range.



31 May 2016 00:48:57
Lets start getting serious why would David Villa come to Ibrox, he could be playing for a champions league team if he wanted. You lot playing Fifa too much.



29 May 2016 14:19:47
Why not take Lafferty back? . Guy said he wants to come back and we may need to make some concessions to win this league. We aren't able to 'buy' it with £15m worth of signings. Guys got a house up here now as well. While we're at it. Why not Hutton and try him at centre half? .

Both players would add expirience

Slate away!



29 May 2016 14:35:20
Not going to slate you but don't think there's much chance of either.

Many rangers fans seem to consider lafferty as something of a hate figure, personally think it's a bit harsh. Would certainly give us a different option with his height but can't see it happening.

One of my pals knows Hutton well and says he would jump at chance (if villa release him as expected) but doesn't think rangers are interested. He's very similar to what we have- a right back that is good going forward but hopeless in defence.



29 May 2016 15:51:10
How is he treated harshly? The club and supporters stood by the tool as he stumbled from one embarrassing incident to another.

Then when he got the chance to stand by the club and supporters he gave everyone two fingers and ditched them. Didn't even have the decency to command a fee to help the club but rather raised a constructive dismissal claim against the club!

The man is a parasite!



29 May 2016 17:26:58
Iwdawson

Spot on mate.



29 May 2016 18:03:43
I am with Iwdawson, Lafferty was headlines on the front page more than he was on the back page when he was last at Ibrox. Never worthe £3m or £4m, whichever value is what we paid for him. A liability in most games, more suited to the East End of Glasgow than to Ibrox. A definite no!



29 May 2016 19:00:26
How many times must we hear the same old song Bring Kyle Lafferty back, no thank you funny how there all getting older and made there money now want back Bougera as well it's as simply as this they don't fit into the managers plan!



29 May 2016 19:23:07
Don't think the players that are coming in ( rumours ) will
Be the ones that will be coming in .
That's not the way it's going .
MW and Frank McParland know what we need and I'm sure we will be in good shape next year, exciting times .



29 May 2016 20:11:49
Hutton isn't hopeless in defence he's just not as good as we can get. I remember the game against Barcelona all he did that night was defend.



29 May 2016 23:20:39
The problem is the folk that want him back only remember him getting the goals at Kilmarnock to win the league that day they forget all the rest of his pish and was very inconsistent.



30 May 2016 00:01:57
Lafferty was played out of position when we had him, as the main target man he can score goals, as his record with NI proves, he is a good poacher and I think he would offer something different that we maybe need.

I understand why many fans would be unhappy if he returned but I would be more than happy for him to come back, as long as he behaved better than last time, which I'm sure he would under MW and DW.



30 May 2016 09:44:52
I agree with most posters concerning lafferty but if mark warburton fancys him I would support the magic hats decision.



29 May 2016 18:24:47
Have to also throw my weight behind lwdawson's views on kyle lafferty, don't want his sort around our club, god he even wanted to take rangers to court.



29 May 2016 13:31:08
Anyone else think we try signing Will Grigg? played under warburton at brentford and has been in good form.



29 May 2016 13:42:48
Wigan paid 1m for him and he's done well in his first season, can't see them selling him cheap.

So no.



29 May 2016 15:52:33
I would sign him just to drown out "Stokey's on fire"! Haha.



29 May 2016 16:41:31
Celtic after him now as well.



29 May 2016 18:04:57
According to newspapers he is staying at Wigan although Celtic are rumoured to be interested in him.



30 May 2016 09:48:31
if will grigg has a good euros this summer on top of his club form we won't be getting a sniff. if we want him need to move now.



29 May 2016 13:23:33
Bit random I know but think it would be a great idea if we got Ally McCoist, Lee McCulloch etc the ones that were part of the journey on to the pitch before first game of the season and give them a true I brow thank you, would be moving and also be great.



29 May 2016 13:51:01
I don't want McCoist anywhere near Ibrox ever again. If you have seen the emails leaked by Charlotte Fakes ages ago then you will know that he sold out the fans for his own personal gain. In the emails between him and Charles Green he agreed to endorse the new board and share scheme in exchange for a bumper salary and 1% of the shares when the club was floated. So even though he was a great player, he has tarnished his reputation as far as I am concerned. Not only that he subjected us to 2.5 years of utter crap football, despite having a massive budget compared to other teams.

McCulloch is a different story as I would be happy to welcome him back. He gave everything to the club and gave us some good memories.



29 May 2016 13:56:31
Lee McCulloch is now with Kilmarnock so I don't see any rationale for him being at Ibrox other than when we play against them and I am sure that he will always be well received.

I couldn't personally care less whether McCoist is ever at Ibrox again unless it as a member of the support cheering on the team.

He has had his time at Rangers and I am sure that, like a lot of people he regrets taking the managers job, (albeit that financially he did rather well out of it) .

Under his watch as manager we saw some of the worst football players that we have ever had the misfortune of wearing the Rangers Jersey. His signings and his style of football was a joke as was his assistant manager that, unbelievably, later became manager.



29 May 2016 14:15:36
Why not? Guys given us more good than bad. No grudges in my family.



29 May 2016 14:40:49
Coisty owes fans something of an explanation as to why he acted as a public front man to a bunch of crooks plundering the club.

Legend as a player, was my hero as a kid. But his actions as a manager leave a bad taste in the mouth and his unwillingness to speak about it casts a question on his character.



29 May 2016 14:49:35
Great shout Rangers19722016!
McCoist should be welcomed back for the first game of season at Ibrox with open arms! He stuck with us through thick and thin, (latterly, mainly thin! And not to mention the amount of goals he scored for us over the years as a prolific striker! ) when we were at rock bottom, u must remember it wasn't him who put us there, yet he took our first steps as manager (granted, a very poor one, let's face it, he couldn't manage a bag of chips! ) on our journey, back up through the leagues.
Love him or hate him, the man is a True Blue Legend, and should ALWAYS be welcome back at Ibrox!



29 May 2016 17:49:36
Ally stole money from the club just like the other crooks and his style of play and results were shocking. If u want to thank him for that feel free however I could never bring myself to cheer for this greedy individual anymore.



29 May 2016 18:36:31
will never forgive Ally for saying ''i signed my contract and did not know what my salary was'' complete and utter bs, and worse he seems to believe us punters are so thick we would believe him.



29 May 2016 19:13:57
Boss Hog I'm with you, after all that I don't do walking away, shite eh he sure did do walking away more like a sprint with gardening leave payout every month to buy his silence, he knows way more about the shenanigans than we'll ever know. Come along at the flag ceremony but don't expect 100% welcome you took millions out of Rangers.



29 May 2016 20:14:03
The only way I ever want to see McCoist back at Ibrox is if he is going to apologise to the fans for his greed and the fact that he was the worst ever manager at the club playing the worst football seen at Ibrox.

Thank God Warbs is now in charge rather than McCoist.



29 May 2016 21:54:36
Ally mccoist is a legend, anyone who says otherwise are deluded halfwits, same people who cry about our players leaving as well in 2012, no chance anyone could expect players like that to stay and play in the 3rd division.



29 May 2016 22:05:21
Ally was a legend still is guy took a job on that was not just a job kept the club together whether he took too much he saved his club and put his neck on the line. He was paid good but look where we've come from to now there where times where we thought it was over lucky to still have a club that looking good atm. He was sick at the end of it no man deserves abuse for giving 100% just didn't work whether he thought it was the wage he deserved who knows? Iif Rodgers is on 40 at Celtic what was ally worth he was a leader in a time of need.



29 May 2016 13:13:05
With the quality we have in midfield and the passing and possession football we play we will see a higher standard to how we have played this season . a good DM will help the defence but still need a solid, experienced CB, some cover at the back and a striker that will convert more chances. with what we already have and a few quality loans in we will have a really strong team that will compete next season.



29 May 2016 13:58:04
Football wise I suspect that we will play the best football in the SPL next season but unless we tighten up our defence and find a striker that can score goals we will be on a hiding to nothing in some games.



29 May 2016 12:30:50
looking at possible strikers for next season both adam la fondra and lee tomlin out of contract this summer could do good job up here.



29 May 2016 12:55:59
Adam la fonda is class would score a Barra load up here.



29 May 2016 13:43:55
Mer like Jane Fonda. (Couldnt resist)

But yes, Adam Le Fondre would be a good striker for us to pursue. Always watched him at Rotherham few years back bang them in season after season.



30 May 2016 06:11:29
He's played 26 games this season and scored 3 goals. Sinc Cardiff bought him 14/ 15 season he was loaned out to Bolton and Wolves. Whatever he has before, he lost it.



29 May 2016 09:41:22
Not posted on here in a while but felt the need to post this after listening to my bear pals gloating over the signing of Barton and "spending what it takes" to compete with Celtic.
Your very own money man Stewart Robertson is quoted as saying the club "will need investment" to see out the new season, even with your raised season ticket revenues you are still running at a loss.
King is once again falling into the same trap as all the others, spending money the club does not have and running up more debts in the process. (Not counting all the legal fees the club will have to pay for)
All your fans gloating of big money signings is so far off the mark, you are heading for another administration if your board are not careful. FACT.



29 May 2016 10:09:06
Timalloy. Any sensible Bear will not be gloating or boasting. Yes, things are looking the best for our club for nearly five years. We are back in the SPL next season and showed by beating Kilmarnock, Dundee and Celtic that we aren't far away. I'm sure King and co will be very aware of budgets this time round. We've the makings of a very good team indeed and Barton may prove to be a shrewd signing. Celtic were nothing spectacular last season and it doesn't say much for Scottish football that they were hardly pushed to win the league again, though they couldn't win either of the cups and bombed out of Europe. I'd worry more about Rodgers making Broon his lynchpin next season and we welcome the chase.



29 May 2016 10:22:16
Our fans are not gloating over any signing. Joey Barton arrived because he agreed to take a drop in wages and he also fancies the challenge. Let's get one thing straight. Your club took Brendan Rogers as a reaction to losing the semi final. I would be more concerned about the wages Rogers is being paid than what we do. He is a good appointment Timalloy but if got don't make the champions league "again" where will that leave you.
2.25 million to win the SPFL.
Is that money well spent?
Concern yourself with your own club.
We will do just fine.



29 May 2016 10:22:18
Tell me Tim, were you talking to your bear pals or your ex-bear pals? It's nice of you to warn us all about the spectre of ANOTHER administration. Maybe you're finally having to admit to yourself we're the same club after all eh 😉.



29 May 2016 10:27:43
Get a grip pal, have you access to the financial documents?

Do you do the banking and finance for Rangers?

Every team in the world requires new investment at the start of each season. Your team lives within its means, well done Fergus for splashing your cash.

If you can't handle your Rangers supporting mates comments then tell them you aren't interested.

Don't come on here giving the admin story you lot seem to come out with every month about us. It's not going to happen, FACT.

We are a club on the increase financially, but it takes more than one season to climb over existing debts while still supporting daily running costs.



29 May 2016 10:29:58
What big money signings would that be?



29 May 2016 10:32:27
Ah feck tim. Thanks for the heads up. Just a couple of questions as to how you know this 'fact'

Do you have access to information or accounts the rest of us aren't privy to?

And

Can you see into the future tim, and if so, should we be calling you septic?



29 May 2016 10:33:40
Where did you read that then?

Suggestive terms "need investment" means more than oh we're skint and can't afford to keep going. We don't get the investment we should because of the commercial deals put in place by the other board, which are being disputed as we speak. We've shifted some massive earners from our squad as those players who were just released were on a bonus/ percentage increase for every season we got promoted so signing Joey Barton for what 15k a week makes sense when that's what templeton was near enough on alone.

A new commercial agreement, increased TV, money, more season tickets and general sale tickets and we'd be in good stead. Plus we're only looking to spend 4 million on transfers this year so not overspending as such.

I think we'd be the first to intervene if we suspected any overspending or if we were going backwards. i'm sure you'd be the first to know though given the Financial Experts FC are well and truly in the fold for all things rangers. as per.



29 May 2016 10:39:56
What big money signings? Barton was on a free and his wages aren't breaking the bank. to be honest I don't think we have to spend that much to compete with Celtic. How much money do Celtic owe Desmond? . Rather a lot from what I'm told.



29 May 2016 10:56:12
Oh and you don't pay legal fees in civil matters when you win the case.



29 May 2016 11:00:14
Terrible post, Barton might be on good money but windass, crooks and rossitet won't be on crazy money . you are forgetting that after a couple of years they could be sold for a large profit just like a lot of players in our team . we are in debt to king and ttb but they will be converted to shares I think we have someone scared and green with envy at what is happening at Ibrox.



29 May 2016 11:19:18
Why do you waste your time thinking about rangers finances without realising your own are a mess. You had Derk Boerrigter on 25k a week or more no even on the bench basically retired, as well as putting clowns like brown Lustig Izagere (no i'm no googling his shite name to get the spelling right) Blacket Richards gremlin James Forrest and Boyata all on similar contracts while our wage structure has now only introduced players over the 10k mark, the hat is just getting a contract extension to 12k a week, while your manager takes in 30k more than that, what are YOU going to do if you don't make the champions league this year with all this dead weight? What are you going to do if ambrose decides to sit on his contract for the next year or so? Honestly your own clubs finances are a riot relying solely on champions league qualification as a primary income, and I'm as stupid as you for putting the time in to smite you down you cretin away back to the unwashed forum and we will worry about your own deadweight club.



29 May 2016 11:20:55
when you put IF and FACT in the same line its not a FACT.



29 May 2016 11:21:55
Can you please show us hard evidence of your FACTS or is it a case of your mouth being a few minutes ahead of your brain?



29 May 2016 11:22:25
and the reason you ****ed off and stopped posting is because your teams football was dribble and you couldn't touch us with a barge pole in terms of the quality we played and we showed that in the semifinal, but I'm glad you finally found a reason to post here again, about finances you have no idea about on a forum you have no business being on, obsessed twat.



29 May 2016 11:46:59
With regards to the majority of football fans, all they care about is what happens on the pitch and most of us are hoping that we can challenge Celtic next season. The more staunch fan thinks we will pump Celtic based on the cup game and the more realistic fan knows we will be doing well if we manage to challenge Celtic because they have a much better squad. Our only hope of winning next season is if the Celtic players don't take to Rodgers and they underperform.

With regards to our finances, we are in a mess with a debt close to 20M and as you pointed out, our current business model involves us borrowing more just to survive. Obviously this business model is not sustainable and I reckon our board know that. However, they also know that our fans won't accept playing second fiddle to Celtic and that is why we have signed Barton, to appease the fans so we buy season tickets (you have done the same with Rodgers) . Our board are taking a massive gamble by doing this and if we don't get CL football soon we are in real danger of a 2nd liquidation.



29 May 2016 11:49:25
Not posted in a while?
Would be delighted if you never posted here again.
Can never understand the need for the unwashed to come on here.



29 May 2016 12:06:28
Don't worry about us timalloy. We're heading on the right track. You just worry about your on team and we will see yous on the pitch next season. Dry your tears and don't be jealous. Does it hurt you inside that we are back in the top league. I bet it does FACT!



29 May 2016 12:48:25
You can check our finances at company house if you doubt me. Based on those figures I can say for a fact that we had a debt of 18.1 million pounds when our accounts were filed in March 2016.

So basically we have made losses of nearly 40 million pound to get from the bottom tier of Scottish football to the top tier. I get the 40 million figure by adding our current debt to the money made from share issue as we normally don't have that money.

You may not find this worrying but I do and we will be in deep trouble if we don't reverse the trend and learn how to live within our means.



29 May 2016 13:34:51
Boss Hogg - a debt that's owed to dave king/ "the three bears".

Somethins DK has openly admitted.

Living within our means is what we've done since he's came in.



29 May 2016 13:37:37
Why are "they" so interested in our club? Seems like "they" are all fascinated by Rangers.



29 May 2016 14:03:36
delete reply.



29 May 2016 14:04:21
@Super Ally - to the best of my knowledge 5-6M is owed to a 3rd party in Hong Kong (borrowed to pay back Ashley) and the terms of the loan were never released by the current regime. With regards to the rest, yes it is owed to the 3 bears but I don't think any of it was put in by Dave King.

Regardless of who it is owed to, it will need to be paid back at some point which means it affects future finances as well as our current financial position. The only good thing about the majority of the debt is that it is unsecured and interest free. However, it is not sustainable to continually borrow money every season just to keep the lights on.

I should also point out that if we are now living within our means then we would not need to still borrow money. Not only that last financial year was actually our biggest rise in debt in a season (i. e. 9 million) . In addition we have just released a statement saying we will need to borrow more money to keep the lights on next season, which again does not suggest we are living within our means.

If you doubt what I am saying then why don't you start a business and continually spend more than you make and see how long you last before you are shut down.



29 May 2016 14:18:34
Bosshogg we will not be going into administration again that's nonsense the18.1 million is debt to the 3 bears and king which will be converted into shares they have already clearly stated this. we have operating losses of 9 million on top of that but if the retail deal gets sorted then that will negate a portion of that aswell as a 20 percent rise in season ticket prices and increased revenue from being back in the top division will also help as for living within our means you can't have it both ways people are complaining that we can't compete in the top flight with free transfers and players from league 1 etc surely that in itself shows we are living within our means as we are not spending big sums we can't afford.



29 May 2016 14:46:33
The reality is that we almost went into administration last season because we had a bunch of shadesters plundering the club and giving away the clubs assets.

Not convinced by king but there is absolutely no chance that he and the likes of Murray would let the club go into administration again.

Sorry to disappoint you Tim. Not really.



29 May 2016 14:48:06
I never said we were going into administration, what I said was continually spending more than you make is not sustainable and will lead to a second liquidation.

I disagree with you about the debt only being owed to the three bears as well because I know for a fact that we borrowed money from a consortium in Hong Kong to pay back Ashely. You also say it will be converted into shares but you may have noticed that it is not a possibility at present because Ashley blocked that from happening by taking us to court. Do you honestly think that the current board are going to continually loan us 9M a year from now until eternity? Common sense tells you that it will reach a point where they say enough is enough and cut their loses.

Yes sorting the retail deal would help us financially but there is no guarantee we will win the case and until we do we are going to be spending lots of cash on lawyers fees.

Yes increased season ticket prices and being back in the SPFL will help but I am certain that we already took that into consideration and we have stated that we will still need more loans this season.

Unfortunately for us we are stuck between a rock and a hard place just now. Our current revenue does not allow for us to sign players without borrowing more money. If we don't sign any players then we cannot get into Europe and generate the necessary funds to keep us solvent.

If you want to bury your head in the sand about our financial predicament then feel free to do so and I understand why you would. However, I am more of a realist and prefer to deal with the facts even when they are not particularly pleasant.



29 May 2016 15:01:52
Anyone that says "FACT" at the end of a post yet gives absolutely no facts isn't to be listened to.

Pretty much that simple.



29 May 2016 09:56:08
200,000 for 4 players so far is big money spending is it?



29 May 2016 10:22:29
Timalloy hate to break this to you but Celtic have more debt than Rangers FACT. And do you understand the difference between debt and investment, clearly not.



29 May 2016 15:19:48
So you are saying that it is not a fact that we are in 18.1M debt? Are you saying it is not a fact that we borrowed money from a Hong Kong consortium to pay off Ashley? Are you saying it is not a fact that Mike Ashley took Rangers to court to block the issuing of more shares?

There are legal documents and newspaper stories in reputable papers that show everything I am saying is 100% correct. Just because you may not have seen them or may not be able to understand them does not make me any less right, In fact, your statement only shows your ignorance on the matter.



29 May 2016 15:24:08
Bury my head in the sand about our financial predicament lol your the same person I had to tell we had audited accounts the other day lol I see you finally got round to checking. and I'm not saying for one minute that our financial situation is ideal I'm just saying your point about liquidation is nonsense and did I say the loans would be converted right now mike ashley will hopefully no longer have a say due to new castles relegation so at some point the loans will be converted and as for your knowledge on 5 or 6 million being borrowed from2 hong kong business men they helped along with 3 bears to pay back the 5 million how much of that they paid no one knows so your making those numbers up.



29 May 2016 16:04:34
F85 I am happy to admit that I was wrong when I said there were not audited accounts. However, I don't think you can blame the majority of us for not knowing about them. The reason I say that is that our board released a set of unaudited accounts before the audited accounts. These unaudited accounts were well publicised in the MSM and on our website as they had failed to put in all the bad bits. Then not long after the unaudited accounts we produced a set of audited accounts which were not on our website and were not given much column inches in the press. I actually had to do a bit of digging to find them.

You say my point about liquidation in nonsense which I also find hard to understand because it means you think that you can continually spend more than you make without danger of ever being liquidated. (you may notice that I am not saying we will be liquidated only that if we continue doing what we are doing we will)

With regards the loan to pay Ashley, I was going of memory of what I read at the time. However, it would appear that Dave King through a separate company, Douglas Park, George Letham and George Taylor had contributed along with director John Bennett and two additional Hong Kong based businessmen, Barry Scott and Andy Ross. The actual amount was 6.5M. As you and I both said we don't know the actual details of this loan.

M8 I'm not saying for a minute we can continually spend more than what we make I understand that would be unsustainable just feel that the talk of liquidation is a bit harsh I no dave king inparticular hasn't done hi self any favours with the 30 million war chest comments but I feel that the board definitely deserve some plaudits for what they have achieved in a short space of time they have certainly steadied the ship, the negativity really annoys me after the Motherwell game last year we were at our lowest we have now won the league convincingly with a good style of football and beat celtic to get to the sc final and have a board with rangers genuine interest at heart who imo wouldn't let us go into administration / liquidation yet some people still look for a way to be negative.

If you were to ask me if I was happier at the end of this season than I was at the same time last season, then it would be a resounding yes.

As you rightly pointed out we have made great progress on the pitch and the brand of football is vastly superior than McCoist's brand. Not only that I think we have a good manager who is capable of developing players, which is essential for us because we do have limited funds.

I personally realise that we are in a transition phase and that it is going to take time to challenge for the league and this is what worries me, coupled with the fact that we are continuing to rack up debt. While I personally accept we are where we are and the sensible thing to do is to proceed with caution and not to over spend. However, I don't think all the fans will share my patience if we are not beating Celtic. Rangers need the fans support now more than ever. If we are to become financially secure we are going to need to fill Ibrox every week.

As long as the team is there to play ever other week, that's all that matters.

BOSSHOGG, we will never go into Adminstration again believe me, onwards and upwards.

@WhatATeam - When you have a debt that is larger than your turnover you need to be worried. The lack of transparency at the club is also worrying, especially when King promised us transparency (among other things) that he has not delivered.

If you go on the SFA website and check our membership status for finance, we are listed as basic which is the lowest possible status. We have a long way to go before we can stop worrying. Personally I will continue to worry and question the board until I see the debt come down and the need for loans disappear. If you want to think everything is rosy then that is upto you but I know different.

I've been reading all comments about not buying a striker or defenders and us going for a lot of midfielders I think those positionseeking will be filled with quality loan deals when clubs spend big on players and other become surplus I wld go for Bentley gk.

I have a feeling Dom Ball will be back. Possibly on loan again and I for one would be thrilled if that was the case.

I am not one to go back for the old guard as such but I would also love Kyle Bartley back but I am not too sure what his current situation is at the moment. Having said that the boy loved the club when he was here and would be more mature this time around.

The gaffer builds the squad as he sees is most appropriate, if we have a solid starting back 4 (for me its likely to be tav crooks wilson wallace) we only really need one more centre back potentially a starter. We have signed three midfielders I.



29 May 2016 01:04:23
Have there been any comments made from MW regarding our "performance" in the cup final and the fact that we cannot defend? We seem hell bent on signing midfielders instead of an established CB! I sincerely hope there's something in the pipeline or we'll be made a full of next season.



29 May 2016 02:11:30
Why do you think we will be made a full of next season? We more than matched the current champions without our two key players and that's without our signings for next season. Please just take a chill pill and let Warbs and Weir do their magic.



29 May 2016 09:14:59
Well said Seaofibrox. Papers know jack and I am positive Weir, Warbs and Mcpartland among others will be looking at all postions behind the scenes.



29 May 2016 09:13:14
There is plenty of time to bring players in and I'm sure players for these positions have been identified and will be filled before the end of the transfer window.



29 May 2016 15:24:10
SOI. I think we'll be made a full of if we keep the current CB pairing, since the old firm game we have failed to manage games. I have no confidence in them, too many times this season they've been made to look amaturish by part time/ mediocre strikers. That's only my opinion and concern.
