Seen him in that cup final vs Celtic and in the warm up vs burnely, he couldn't catch a cold dives the wrong way a lot

01 Aug 2015 09:39:02
I think foderingham should play, New boys need games under there belts.

01 Aug 2015 11:10:07
Is that Foderi than condemned after one game.

31 Jul 2015 20:31:34
I hope both templeton kicks on and become the player he should be and that warbs gives him time and transforms him 2 his potential. He has bags of talent with no confidence(fair does he's made of chocolate) he's defo sum1 who ontop of his game that could make us money if we gave new contract then sold on

31 Jul 2015 16:46:04
If we don't get sa then its still a coup for the gers as allans heart no at hibs now so hibs best player will be half hearted in the games and defo pulling out of 50 50s as he no want to get injured either way its a win win for us maybe its a total genius we h.ave at the healm now as the little transfer we have offered for him.unsettle the player and hibs.show him we want him and get him on pre contract for nothing for back in premiership.lets win the champuonship by christmas an let dave king concentrated on the club itself.so far so good

31 Jul 2015 12:42:45
Stv linking us with ex Brentford midfielder Toumani Diagouraga, possible alternative now clear SA is not happening.

Am I the only person who thinks this situation has worked out rather well? We need players and he is a good player but hibs need him more. After the way it has developed there is no way he will be a positive influence due to being forced to stay. Only a desperate club keeps a player in these circumstances. We have taken away their best weapon and seriously upset their pre season.

This story will rumble on beyond the transfer window and be a constant thorn in their side. Then we will get our man in January.

31 Jul 2015 13:33:32
Diagouraga is a big physical Defensive midfielder, Allan is an attacking mid, slightly different. however yes the situation has worked in our favour.

31 Jul 2015 11:17:53
all we have done is put a bid in for a football player is that not what happens in football if the team rejects the bid you bid again Hibs and Stubbs are being a bit stupid about all of this it was them that made it public if the boy wants to live his dream of playing for his boyhood heroes let him go

31 Jul 2015 13:21:11
hibs are playing the injured party they got the boy for nothing if rangers pay circa £325k that's the only profit they will make this year they maybe earned quite a bit of money in the past for transfers but now allan is the only pay day this season so I reckon somewhere between noe and the close of the window they will let him go does not matter what stubbs says he has an unhappy player on his hands which will affect the rest of the squad and fans will give allan a hard time

31 Jul 2015 16:03:51
wit would stubbs do if everton wanted him to be manager after signing his new deal I no not in same league but team he supports would he want to go mmmmmmm

31 Jul 2015 09:55:53
Hi anybody got any idea who the 2 or 3 players are that rangers need

31 Jul 2015 10:34:23
A holding midfielder, which we are linked to 3 off. other than that we are okay, maybe some cover for the wingers and a leftback.

31 Jul 2015 09:43:32
I see that Parma have started up as a new club, really is a shame that no one came in to save them. Once had such great players. The annoying part of it all is that the obsessed will think it gives them ammunition for the "new club argument".

31 Jul 2015 09:53:04
Wrong (as ever), the "obsessed" will think that's what happens when a club spends far more money than it has. And for the record it is a shame, it's a shame when it happens to any club but when the expenditure exceeds the income AND YOU CONTINUE SPENDING BEYOND YOUR MEANS then hell mend you if a sugar daddy or other funding isn't available.

31 Jul 2015 10:26:48
Also Gaz I'm not wrong at all here, I've already heard it from many fans who do not support rangers yet only talk about them. They used parma as an example of how Rangers are a new team, must admit it was a good chuckle.

31 Jul 2015 11:00:39
Did the parent company of parma not go bankrupt in 2004/2005?

31 Jul 2015 11:23:18
To the Parma fans they will always be the same club as they will be for most people without agendas I would guess.

31 Jul 2015 12:13:52
Onlyshow right now you are talking to me and that isn't my opinion. It never crossed my mind that "Oh goody I can relate this to Rangers". What crossed my mind was how a team that had Thuram, Buffon, Cannavaro and Veron amongst a host of others can fall so far. And it is a cautionary tale, sure Parmalat crashed but they were clearly living way beyond their means, the very thing the FFP is there to prevent. Chelsea are but an Abramovich heart attack away from ending like Gretna much as they would deny it and Man City would be in even worse debt should their backers disappear.

31 Jul 2015 13:35:19
Funny that cause all you seem to do is be on a rangers site, my bad Gaz, I just thought as you are always here you must link everything and anything with us.

31 Jul 2015 14:01:33
WHAT teams do not spend more than their means?
Certainly not most PL and continentals, I think, if you consider the weird loans many have.

31 Jul 2015 14:01:59
I should have said successful teams do not spend more than they earn

31 Jul 2015 14:36:27
Onlyshow you're presumptions are generally miles off the mark so I really shouldn't be surprised but trust me on this one I did not relate it to Rangers and hadn't commented on it, you then said we would tie it up to new clubs, I told you I didn't. That relates to me, the door was opened for a "Celtic" reply when you, as ever, made some nonsense claim. Tell you what stop mentioning us and it might just reduce our input. I've been named twice in here lately and the references to Celtic are numerous but we're "obsessed" haha. Is there a Rangers player alive or dead mentioned more often than Scott Allan has been? And short of possibly McCoist, Stubbs has clearly had more mentions than any other manager, even Warburton bizarrely. I doubt some of you guys could go five minutes without having something or someone to get bitter about. Prove me wrong.

31 Jul 2015 17:26:40
Please tell all us bitter b*****ds why the eff you keep trying to wind everybody up. In my opinion, your posts should be in a column of their own and maybe call it 'the gaza strip!'

{Ed001's Note - that is a brilliant name for a comic that.....}

31 Jul 2015 21:42:02
Because Billyb (and it was a good name by the way) I can't believe some of the crap in here, we've all been there our team is crap whatever, I was at a ton of old firm games during your 9iar and it was bloody horrible. But it taught me humility and never boast too loudly etc because who knows what is round the corner. Meantime today Davie 1980 is talking about winning the league by xmas. Someone yesterday suggested a youth on the subs bench every week for when you are up 3-0 at HT and some other genius said Stubbs should be on a shoogly peg if they sell Allan, this was before his contract extension I hasten to add. The arrogance is breathtaking and I'll happily take it down a peg for all and sundry with some garbage claim, less garbage less "winding up" arguably but some of you can't help it I reckon, it's in built, some smug, inherited notion that the world owes Rangers something. Wrong, wrong, wrong. And by the way I never called you b*****ds you did.

31 Jul 2015 23:21:02
Come on gaz, all valid points but there is astounding arrogance on the Celtic page too from some re winning the treble easily this year, qualifying for group stages of champions league as if it should be your divine right not to mention ten in a row already in the bag, Celtic too big for Scottish football etc. I don't go on there very often and don't comment anymore even when I do, despite a lot of what I see 'getting on my goat' as in relation to us all I read is sevco this or that, ibrokes, etc and I quickly found it wasn't worth wasting my time or breath on it. It's exactly the same thing in this instance.

01 Aug 2015 09:18:23
Gaz, Some not too bad points, but you and humility cannot really be taken in the same breath.
Spart is correct and what we have is the pot calling the kettle black. I feel that you come on this site like a condescending school teacher. You make some good points in your posts, but your delivery needs toned down.
In my opinion, we [ bluenoses.] are divided in our interpretation of everything that is Rangers. The one thing that we are proud of, is the fact that we are bluenoses and we do not need any lectures.
Maybe we are deluded, maybe we can be arrogant and sometimes we hide from the facts but we are united in one thing -------
THE GLASGOW RANGERS.

30 Jul 2015 23:33:04
Someone tell me this isn't true! Offer for SA was payment over two years with an add on if Rangers went up. WTF is king playing at?

31 Jul 2015 02:19:25
Are you still on the payroll Jack? Or is this just a good old fashioned but feeble attempt to muck rake?

31 Jul 2015 02:26:18
Your post contradicts itself Jack, so they would get the add on at the end of this season but payment over two years? An add on is exactly what it says it is a conditional bonus added to the original fee when conditions are met. If you are correct this deal would have the add on before the payment. Its desperate Jack and just plain daft.

{Ed001's Note - no it does not. You can have add on clauses that are triggered before the full transfer is paid for.}

31 Jul 2015 07:15:14
Se trata tis better to stay quiet and have everyone think your an idiot, than open your mouth and remove any doubts 😉

31 Jul 2015 08:21:40
Aren't most deals usually have add ons and payments over a couple of years do they not? Is it just because it's us that it's a bad thing Jack?

31 Jul 2015 09:08:37
It has been reported that all clubs dealing with Rangers have all asked for full fee up front because of the club's poor financial history, Hibs are no different.

31 Jul 2015 16:17:40
The point I'm making is add on if going up. So Hibs do a deal where they gain if the fail.
