Use our rumours form to send us rangers transfer rumours.


05 Aug 2011 23:28:15
Sorry ed... not a rumour butvery relevant. OK... we make the usual dross signings, and we scrape together a few bodies ( btw Bartley must play DM, we are crying out for him there ) and struggle for title. We can win it again and we need to give OUR team evertyhing they deserve which is our complete support. This as a club is what we thrive on, look at last season, and that is what makes it interesting. The guys running RFC LOVE the club as we do so drop the s$$t and get behind the boys. Including whitty. Thanks. WATP

Whitty is the worst right back we have had in many a year

An early edition of the Daily Record states that Ally McCoist is in need of two more players before the Europa League deadline versus Maribor. {Ed047's Note - Let McCoist decide what he needs, not the Record. Probably Jim Traynor who loves Rangers as I love dentists

Believable2 Unbelievable1

Its not only the record that thinks we need at least 2 more players in before europa deadline ed most of the fans do too. remember the same discussions were going on before the CL deadline against malmo. {Ed047's Note - I'm not stupid. I'm aware we need to strengthen. The simple point I was making is that McCoist doesn't need that rag to tell him how to run the club

I was reading the football pages on bbc.co.uk and it looks like there will be some decent players available on a free transfer at realistic wages

There was comments from agents saying the 25 man squad rule will mean some players on 40k will need to get a grip and accept a lot less money or they will get no money

Come on whyte get your money oot

Ive only posted a couple of times before , i really find the need to say again to all my fellow bears that although the result agaisnt malmo was below exptations we really need a reality check, mr chairman has done more than has been done for the last few years when our players have been cherry picked for next to nothing, our true fans will understand this , this year im glad we have been linked with so many players, i know our buisness could and should have been shrewder but ffs 1 st year, lets follow follow as we should always do In my hero i will always trust and forever he will true fans in his corner, mr chairman i thank you watp, let it never be forgotten

Lots of rumours guys, and I realise there is not a lot to be happy about down Govan way but is it not time for a reallity check
Has anybody ever heard of half the names being branded around....... so do not let us be wetting ourselves over those with foreign backgrounds, history tells us that even in better times a relatively small percentage of imports have blossomed.
Now the Gers are shopping in back street bazaars rather than quality showrooms and with limited funding more chance of finding an odd half decent run-around than a quality performer.
We dont need to be a whizz surely to take a good hard think of our current circumstances and recognise that good players will not sign contracts at circa 20k when they can play in the championship for half as much again.
Its a no brainer........ second class wages will only satisfy second class players
Who in the current set up, and remember we are Champions would get in the best Rangers team of the last 25 years.......guys the answer is, none would get near that standard.
Realistically, and this is an emotion in short supply we supporters are paying top dollar for poor fare.
Rangers performances in the CL, generally have been over the last 2/3 years shown to have the zero entertainment levels not worthy of a once great football club........ 5-5-1 formations were an embarassment.
Maybe we should not be entering competitions that show us as no-hopers, over the next weeks and with a little good fortune, months We can allow Academy players who must possess some skills to play alongside 6 or 7 hand picked proffessionals not the over-egged prima donnas presently around.
At least we can be assured of honest endevour and perhaps a quality that is missing.
For too many supporters beating Celtic more than they beat Rangers is the be - all-and-end-all lets get a life
MacGregor, Papic, Wallace, Bartley, Davis and Jelovic
form a decent base
Lafferty, Whittaker, Naysmith, are average in everything but believing their own publicity
Weir, McCulloch should be playing in Sky Sports Legends Fleck has been around so long as a promising youngster perhaps he would play there too
The kids are maybe not the finished article but they are genuine.
Maybe it will take a month or too Ally but its surgery needed not a stich or two.
Perhaps if wee Chick Young and his pals had less emotional ejaculations and took Vlad s advice then the Rangers Army would get a product they deserve

Never read so much sh** in ma life man.Obviously you and the rest of the bams calling for Ally's head and questioning Craig Whytes intentions for our club don't have half a clue about modern day scottish football, Spending 10's of millions on so called big names bought us no more sucsess than we are having at the moment but nearly ruined our great club.Trust in the scouts, managerial staff and players or take your scynical BS elsewhere.

Fare play to McCoist for taking on the job of managing the mighty Glasgow Rangers. He's a young manager, starting out on his managerial career and he has the task of taking over from the best Scottish manager to have granced the game in "Sir Walter".

So lets lay off Ally, he's a legend and only has the clubs best intentions at heart.

We'll get the players in, we'll win the league and we'll rub it right into our neighbours

Believable2 Unbelievable1

I'm a big fan of Walter but... really? Best Scottish Manager? no doubt the best scottish manager in scotland in the past 20 years but... Sir Alex Ferguson, without a doubt, has been more successful. No point beating around the bush.

I should have said one of the best to grace the game

Im convinced ally is having us all on..
murray davidson wont be here , I
doubt that carlos cueller will arrive
which is fine by me if its ok for rangers
I hope they spend whatever money they have very wisely and we just have tp wait till the end of the window to see what we get in..not any point in listening to the mostly stupid
speculation any more it would be okay
if they were good liars but they are
just too stupid for that...tell the council

Sorry ed: have difficulty with reply function on my phone.

To Andy who replied to my previous post: Indeed it certainly does make business sense to no constantly bid over-the-odds on numputys as was the hallmark of the early Murray era. However this really isn't ideal either. Having a ridiculous number of bids rejected for every target approached (bar Ortiz- the lack of a haggle there probably keeps Whyte awake nights) is to say the very least tedious in the extreme. I think it's very damaging to the club's reputation, which is the last thing we need right now. Makes us seem a Mickey Mouse operation. Totally clueless. It does not inspire any confidence that they have the first idea of what they're doing. I'm no sure I'll ever understand what the purpose of the £1m opening gambit for the DUFC nutcase was all about for example. Just a waste of everyone's time.

Havent seen so much negativity towards our famous club since before Murray took over.Give yourselves a shake people, am actually wondering if most were happier when our club was being run by the bank.Does everyone expect Whyte to drag our club balls deep into debt again? Or that he has a bottomless pit of disposable income?, the guy is trying to run a tight ship so that we never have to go through what we did financally again.Lets just be patient and see what the end of the window brings before we write him off as a cheat, liar or fraud.And most of all lets get behind Ally and the team, as far as I can see the beggars have added virtually nothing to there runners up brigade so for that reason am in , and so should everybody else

Why is mccoist after so many central defenders? we now have weir, goin , bartley plus papac broadfoot and mcculloch can play cb if needed if we manage to get juhasz and cuellar we are going to have a few unhappy players we need a creative cm to take pressure off davis and two strikers Agree?

Believable3 Unbelievable2

Bartley will probably play defensive mid as he did in his first game for us. Did a good job there and i wouldn't mind seeing him do it week in week out... at the very least, lets Edu attack a bit more

craig whyte needs to get a grip and open his wallet he should just pay whats asked and there's nothing else to it, and bougherra's a person what a way to see out your last game for the gers he'll never see a team like us again. WATP in ally i trust :)

Believable3 Unbelievable3

So Craig Whyte should open his wallet. Do you mean in the same way David Murray chucked money (he didn't have) about? You should get a grip. Rangers are emerging from a really grim situation, the last thing the club needs is getting back into unmanageable debt. Yes I agree spend but not recklessly like before. The continued existence of the club is more important than throwing cash about

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Aug 2011 21:00:41
Don't understand why folk want cuellar and the Hungarian. With Goian, Bartley and Papac already in the squad. Too many central defenders when other positions need filler IMO. Super Ally Super Ally, oh way oh way oh way.

Believable1 Unbelievable4

Goian is not yet proven in the spl papac is to light weight for cb better on left, weirs getting 2 auld.

That's why

Agree0 Disagree0

Well last year we had right backs playing at centre half cause we never had enough know were getting to many .. lol

Agree0 Disagree0

What I mean is why would we want 2 more central defenders when one more should do it? Either Cuellar or the Hungarian. If anyone at Rangers thinks Goian isn't good enough for the SPL then he shouldn't have been bought. I think he'll do a job. Don't want Bartley in CM. Good player but want some box to box creative CM.

I'll not be cheering for Terry . He may have said he was blowen away with our support but he has also publicly stated that he Supported Celtic in the scottish league .

He said that his brother loved playing for yeovil as they both liked to follow celtic .

And before you say his brother does not play for yeovil this was 2 years ago and he also said it on an interview with soccer am a few years back.

I will be cheering on Lamps but terry can go screw someone else's wife.

we only need 1 sha*ger at Ibrox and that the goalie.

WATP.

Believable8 Unbelievable2

Did John Terry and Frank Lampard not do a lap of honour and applaud the supports the last time Rangers played them?
Must be a big Hoop

Agree0 Disagree0

Just because someone walk around clapping at fans does not mean he doesn't prefer Celtic. Messi clapped the last time he played septic but I bet he doesn't give two hoot about them. I saw the Terry interview to and he said his brother loves wearing the green and white hoop shirt as they both follow Celtic in Scotland that's all he said

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Aug 2011 19:57:58
I knew we would announce a signing after the malmo disaster, , its so predictable, yes they will say bartley only signed a new contract for arsenal and that is why it took so long but i think they are so obvious in what whyte is doing, , in five years time the season ticket money will be paying the wages to the players not this seasons available cash, so how can he say that this years money has been spent on extending contracts ed, ,

it says on the bbc website that mccoist defends our transfer policy (how could you?) but when you actually read the story, he states its down to the buisness men not him, and is clearly making that point, im starting to think bbc have got it in for ally with making stupid headlines like that.

i was told 2day that blackpool offered 500k for broadfoot av not seen anything anywhere else has anybody heard this ... i think they should sell him as he is a liability ..


also why in the hell as rangers not going all out for jamie murphy after losing out on goodwillie prob just as good .

and just a personal not i think the prices for the europa league game at ibrox is a joke .. the champions league qualifier was 23 and this game is 23 in a lesser competition.

It's a qualifier...........wait till you see the prices if we qualify....

Is it only me thats wondering the hell we're trying to sign Murray Davidson, when we've got 2 of the best young prospects in scotland in Ness and Hutton. It just seems crazy tae me, we should be going out and bringing in a proven mf.

Believable6 Unbelievable0

I agree and even tho I like bartley and rate him highly I don't understand why we are thinking of getting young epl players on loan instead of trying to improve our own young crop

Agree0 Disagree0

Ness is a class act give you that but Hutton is no more than average at best Davidson is a better player and that my friend is fact And McGowan of hearts is a far better right back than Whittaker any day ....

To all the Bears going to the Chelsea game tomorrow, lets give a big Rangers welcome to John Terry and Frank Lampard. It is well documented that Lampard is a Rangers man, But big JT was blown away with the Rangers support the Last time we played them at Ibrox

How times change you all wanted whyte in to save our club- i remember the terms like whyte buy us- put your hands in your pocket- get lloyds out now they are out you`s want 10 signings straight away, in a couple of months when the window is closed we`ll have the strongest rangers squad in years but some of you wont be happy-whyte has saved us from feeding other teams-do you think we`d still have davis, shagger, sasa, jela, naisy-or of got lee wallace, doian n ortiz in-we are trying to get roland and wesley in as well as a few others- bedoya looks a good player-it takes time allys new as a full time boss, whytes new to this game 2 but 1 thing is for sure we are alot better off with whyte in ( folk were queing up to buy us after all)-stop this constant dis gruntled ive handed back my season ticket bollocks and take a good look at yourselfs-real fans i question that- a handfull of games your wanting super ally out-we will prevail- watp, in ally i trust he`s 1 of us

Believable10 Unbelievable1

I ttotally agree with regards Ally as he was a true Rangers great and i, m sure given time he will become a great manager but i am still a little concerned with Whyte as he speaks alot but up to now hasn, t shown alot wit regards his promises, if he never wanted Goodwillie then why make the best offer when it was too late and i fear the same will happen with the dutch guy, hope i, m wrong

Upson from West Ham is still without a club apparently, might be willing to take a wage cut as the window gets closer, might be worth a look.

Im seeing on tv news that newcastle
united have warned former and
present players that they face
legal action if they twitter or go on
any of the social networking sites
and criticise the club to any person
public or media .Im just wondering
where that places sites such as this
one ?are we all liable to be sued by
club owners in law we can be prosecuted
for being sectarian, racist, and a host
of other things can be levelled at one
on the internet..eg the hearts player
who was labelled as a sex offender
the thing is all these things keep
coming up and I dont think the
current laws are adequate to deal
with these issues in law and the law
will have to be altered accordingly.
But what about civil liberties ?I
am begining to wonder what contractual
conditions will get like now.Its not
about a game of football anymore
is it? what do you make of it editor? {Ed001's Note - we have always had to be careful what we allow on the sites due to fear of prosecution, which is the problem I had while discussing Joey Barton last night. While I know a number of issues regarding the player that aren't in the public domain, I am unable to put them on the site as it would lead to me being sued. Even when you are telling the truth you can get yourself in trouble in this day and age!}

Rangers would certainly be up the kibosh If there was a three bid maximum on these "targets"

If I were the selling club I think I'd be telling them to GTF myself. Shocking way to conduct business. To all those extolling the virtues of our saviour the "whyte knight"- you agree with all that I assume?

If you don't have the money don't bid. If you do, only make serious offers. What you don't do is what we have been constantly these last couple of months. If I were a selling club dealing with Rangers in future I'd automatically be throwing out the first few bids even if they were fair- it's what's expected Bloody joke.

Randolph True Blue

Believable2 Unbelievable5

Not too good business sense to go straight in with serious offers, Mr Whyte has to run the club sensibly or we'll go down the same road we did with Mr Murray and no fan should want that. We will have 4 or 5 more players in before close of window(not fact just what I think and hope:)

I really do worry for Ally Mcoist, I hope I am wrong, but I think he really needs some help, he just seems way out his depth.
The first problem was Whittaker. I dont know why Ally went all out to tie him down on a long term contract, everyone knows whittaker was just a squad player. I dont know where people are getting " he's a key player" nonsence, he is mediocre at best. That was ok when we were paying little money for him but now in excess of £20, 000 per week, there must be better players out there for that money. Basically giving him a new contract has cost us the champions league money plus drawing with hearts the first game of the season (due to whittaker losing his man). I know this sounds a bit dramatic but I think its true.
The second point is tactics I could go on and on but lets look at the Malmo game at Ibrox. After playing Ortiz on the left hand side in the last game anyone could see it was'nt working so why play him again on the same side against Malmo?. He plays Davis on the out side and Edu , Mculloch in the centre. Ok he switches it a bit at half time but it still was'nt working, so why leave it?. He says he didnt have many options on the bench but why not take off Edu, put wilde on the left, Ortiz on the right and Davis and mculloch in the centre. But not to make one substitution all game when anyone could see the team were a bit stale does not make sence.
the third point is his dealing in the media, he needs to realize that the media will stab you in the back the first chance they get, so if you dont know anything about transfers dont say anything IE "we will know something within the next 24 to 48 hours"its better off not saying anything.
Dont get me wrong super Ally is a legend and always will be, but that does not always make a good manager, Alan Shearer comes to mind with Newcastle or Bobby Robson. I know he has only had a few games in charge and as I said at the top of this that I really hope I am wrong but only time will tell.

1st up i'm a season tkt holder and have been for years, but i'm not going back, i've had enough of the b.s coming out of ibrox... i should say whytes mouth, he claims to have given ally between £15m-£20m to spend, if that was the case why didn't they bid £2.9m for goodwillie, if the boy is that good they could have sold him in a few years for double poss triple that. these stupid bids are going to cost us the season, and ally his job the smellic will run away with the lge this season, because whyte has handed them it on a silver platter W.A.T.P. and we want answers no more B.S.

Away and gees piece season ticket holder my a*se. You are not a supporter. You won't be missed that's for sure. The good thing about it Whytes got your money cause if you have a season ticket you must have paid for it. Lol Goodwillie isn't worth £2.9m. Who's to say if utd did let Goodwillie speak to us could we have matched blackburns wages for him? Don't think so.

Gi'day fellow Bears, decent draw for the Euro qf, but we need to sharpen up and get a couple of fresh bodies in first, mainly a striker. I would like to see us drop the interest in M.Davidson and spend the £800-900k on a quality striker, the boy is certainly not any better than the boys coming through the ranks. A signing of that nature sends out all the wrong signals to the guys at Murray park. Any comments Bears ? Rangers 'til die

Believable4 Unbelievable1

There is no way we should be spending what little money we have on the boy davidson. Total waste of money in my opinion and certainly no better than ness and hutton. If we do waste money on him and lose out on the dutch boy and the guy from hungry well shame on both whyte and ally, more so in ally

1st up i'm a season tkt holder and have been for years, but i'm not going back, i've had enough of the b.s coming out of ibrox... i should say whytes mouth, he claims to have given ally between £15m-£20m to spend, if that was the case why didn't they bid £2.9m for goodwillie, if the boy is that good they could have sold him in a few years for double poss triple that. these stupid bids are going to cost us the season, and ally his job the smellic will run away with the lge this season, because whyte has handed them it on a silver platter W.A.T.P. and we want answers no more B.S.

Believable3 Unbelievable2

Na show me whyte saying that he has given mccoist 15-20 m how can he give him both exactly? which is it he said nothing of the sort...

Your entltled to your opinion you pay ur money for ur season ticket but if ur giving up ur ticket just cos YOU think that we will lose out this year then good Ibrox will be a better place without you perhaps someone who is willing to support the team regardless how succesful we are takes ur spot and backs the team in what i believe is the right way. Maybe we will bump into each other wen the gers are bak skooshing the league ... ill be in the same seat .... will u ?

Wake up and smell the coffee person For one Mr Whyte has already forked out a few bob on keeping key players playing for the jersey for a few years apart from giving that knobber Whitaker a five year contract FFS and extra money as well just tae get sent off against Malmo well i hope Ally at least fines him two weeks wages for the petulance of a five year old, and as for Goodwillie i do believe we was held to ransom over that fee and fair play to Ally and Mr Whyte he wuznae worth 2.9 and im sure we have at least another couple of surprise players coming in to help the cause and to win us the title again. in Ally we trust.

Believable5 Unbelievable6

Whittaker should be sold for his 2 performances against malmo cost rangers a possible £15m +

Agree0 Disagree0

Whittaker a great player, he may be the 'worst' full back we've ever had.

I was livid when we gave him a megabucks deal that he didn't deserve, and the start of this season proved that.

By the way, towards the end of last season, the Hearts game at Ibrox (anyone at it will remember) Hearts fired everything down Whittakers side over the top and he got done every time, Jefferies knew the weak link, it never went near the left back area, everything was down the right side where Whittaker was.....shove him wide right or nothing.

Agree0 Disagree0

I would have blamed wattie for us getting beat from Kaunus would u have suggested gettin rid of him ? stand by ur team ... thick and thin not just wen the good times are rollin, he is playing poorly but we all know the level he can operate at people havin a go helps in no way whatsoever and only hinders. Ill back whoever is there and ecourage them. Be a REAL FAN.

GTID

Agree0 Disagree0

Whittaker is the most casual player i have seen in a rangers shirt you can count at least a handful of schoolboy errors in every game he plays in .. granted he does have the odd game but his consistency is poor the boy doesnt deserve the length of contract he got and certainly not to be on of the highest paid him and edu would not even taste the team 10 years ago

Agree0 Disagree0

Its alrite sayin back your team easy answer but whittaker isnt a right back and will cost rangers more games because hes a weak link so people are entitled too say so

Agree0 Disagree0

Is this the same whittaker that danced round half sporting lisbon team and scored the goal that took us to manchester. boys just going through ruff patch just a shame it was in such an important couple of games. shut your faces and support your team PLEASE

Agree0 Disagree0

Whittaker had a good season last season because of his versatility and the fact we had no players and he covered problem areas. His ego has now grown and I feel he needs some real competition at RB to bring him down to earth. {Ed047's Note - I though he was poor last season

Agree0 Disagree0

I will always support rangers through thick and thin but whittaker is S...E {Ed047's Note - he's a liability. Why we let Bursaspor off the hook I will never know

Agree0 Disagree0

I do believe in constructive criticism but after his antics against Malmo that was a disgrace and cost us yes cost us progressing to the next stage of the CL. He should be dropped for a couple of games and fined and let M Edu play right back he would do a better job than that person Whittaker. lee

Agree0 Disagree0

My dad has always rated Whittaker, so i can understnad those of you saying he's just going through a rough patch. However, don't forget his red card against Celtic in the cup last year. Certainly cost us the game then as well.

Agree0 Disagree0

Well i like whittaker he is a player for me who if you give the ball to he will run at players and 9times out of 10 get a ball in the box {Ed047's Note - what Whittaker are you talking about? certainly ain't Steven. He runs into players. loses possession and leaves us exposed and as far as getting balls into the box, he rarely gets it over the first man. One word - liability

totally agree about the earlier post on Murray Davidson. The lad reminded me of Stephen Hughes we had years ago. Half-Decent BUT not good enough. Not any better than Ness, Hutton who we have at our disposal.
Dont waste £500k or so when it could be better used for more of a flair/creative midfield player which we DO badly need.

Good afternoon Ed019, I come in peace, our Ed007 has told us good things about yourself. anyway what does everyone think of euro draws Maribor are current Slovenian champions so could be tough, Sion that Celtic get are Swiss cup winners a bit unknown but I am not counting any chickens yet, poor Hearts Tottenham? but at least they will get on the telly and make some money. Overall I think Old Firm SHOULD? make group stages and get our coefficient going up again. Timalloy {Ed019's Note - hello. I'm always wary when playing these unknown teams. We have no idea just how good they are. I think Maribor will be a challenge. But your right. Both of the OF should beat these teams. Would love it if hearts beat spurs. The greed League needs taken down a peg or two.

Yea, i'd rather hearts had a great European Run than them. Look at it that way.

Agree0 Disagree0

Don't think the original poster should be laughing at hearts, we need to get through a tricky tie ourselves and I hope hearts do well against a very good epl team who have imo one of the best managers around in arry. Hopefully all the scottish teams do well(and yes even celtic)and show all the doubters the spl is not the diddy league everyone thinks it is

Andy

Agree0 Disagree0

Calm down it seems to me that tim put the lol not as laugh at hearts more a "you have to laugh" they pulled the hardest team they could pretty sure he would love hearts to go thro as any other person should from scotland.

Lets be honest both sets of OF fans will know very little of their opponents we have no idea what level they are at or current form we cannot simply be naive enough to think that cos we havent heard of them means were better. Slovenia, Swiss and the swedish leagues are pretty much the same standard as the SPL now so i really dont think we can say we should be goin thro not at least til were a little more educated on the teams.

O the good old days. I actually remember when the Glasgow Rangers were a great team, when playing for the team as a team meant more than just picking up a wage packet. And before you start I can see Alistair McCoists vision for the future.

I do however agree with the posts regarding Whittaker he has been handed a good deal so step up to the plate and get on with it, so far he has cost us against Hearts.
He has cost us against Malmo 1 st leg.
He has cost us against Malmo 2 nd leg.
And worst of all he has cost us 15 million quid, and Scottish football will also suffer.

And whilst I m having a moan what about Lafferty, he needs to get his act together, he cant keep plodding along, we need quality and consistency and I don t think he has it The tic are going to be coming after us so we need to be on our toes and I am afraid sir laughalot is flatfooted, a damp squib

I am in no doubt that decent signings will follow, however I just find it hard when I think of the farcical way we dealt with the Goodwillie saga, that was an absolute disgrace, embarrassing to say the least, (thanks scrooge McDuck), however we will now never know how him and Jelavic would have paired up, I think we have missed out on a s**t pile of goals and on of the all-time great pairings

Anyway I am content at the moment, not happy, I don believe that signings will follow and for sure we will be great again, so come on my fellow bears lets get behind the club and lets show the world why we are the most successful club in the world.

My comments are not knee-jerk reactions to Wednesdays defeat, I do believe they just represent the TRUTH. Come on the bears.

Believable1 Unbelievable7

Sounds lik a witch hunt against Whittaker if you ask me, the boy has had a nightmare start, but he plays for Rangers and so he deserves our support..... not hounding

If Murray Park can't produce a player who is better than Murray Davidson, then it should be turned into 3 blocks of flats, and if Davidson is deemed to be better than Hutton, Fleck, Ness etc, then they should move on, because they are never going to get a game.

Believable7 Unbelievable2

I totally agree, if this is the standard we are looking at well i fear for us, should be nothing more than a squad player.
To me CM is the one position we must get right, i'd love Ness to step up but his injury record is quite poor.

Agree0 Disagree0

I felt davidson was one of st johnstones best players against us and would take him over edu right now until he gets his confidence back, give the boy a chance, looks very comfortable on the ball and would give davis the chance to surge forward and get in the box more

05 Aug 2011 11:09:31
Morning all, firstly I am appealing to all Rangers fans to stand strong and together and realise that we are going through a rebuilding process due to the past 5 years of being skint. Money is there to spend but this is not in massive demand and we need to balance the books and move forward. Don't expect any big signings but players who we can maybe have for the next 3 years and move on for a profit. Whyte views it as a business and is here to make money for the club and himself. He has backed the stadium upkeep, refinanced our debt and has taken a massive HMRC case on against the club so fair play to him.
I believe that he has been a bit naive in the transfer market and this is Allys first furlore into the market so it is a learning experience for everyone. The league and european run would be great but lets get our house in order before we start evaluating and jumping to conclusions.
The proof in the pudding will be there to see come christmas time, if we are there or thereabouts then great, if not then questions have to be asked and I believe we will get answers.
Its good to see Whyte publicly backing the team and signing policy and shows that he is human and realises that the squad needs investment but most importantly the fans SUPPORT, not this silly calls for peoples heads etc.

Any thoughts ed? Fans?

William {Ed001's Note - I just don't understand what is wrong with fans these days. On every site they are whining about lack of signings, constantly. I just don't understand what they want. Has nothing been learnt from the disasters that befell Leeds etc? Do they all want their team to become the next Portsmouth?}

Believable5 Unbelievable1

Absolutely spot on

Agree0 Disagree0

I agree with standing strong, but we do need signings urgently, this current squad needs competition and freshness.
We are not operating on the same level Leeds were, nowhere near.
Apart from GK We need to strenghthen in every department with quality players or i can honestly see us finishing 2nd this year and as its direct entry to champ league next year a win is a must.

I think maurice edu should get a run at right back
he looked settled there in sweden andI
must be frank he was a lot more comfartable
than whittaker in there lets see if he has what it takes to make that position his own Im
sure the management will have noticed this
Im just surprised auld wattie seemed to have
overlooked it

Believable3 Unbelievable5

I would have bambi on ice infront of whittaker still cant believe he got a new deal i said at the time it was a huge mistake an would ave accepted bursaspor 1st offer as he aint worth it he is a waste of space an he has confirmed it by the way he has played in the 4 games this season


T-Bear

Agree0 Disagree0

I think Edu should get a run also, to any team that wants him.

Agree0 Disagree0

Edu will 'never ' make a right back, are you forgetting that he got skinned at least twice down the flank, and was only let out of jail when the guy put in a pish cut back that greegs read.

He cant tackle either, you guys are just thinking that he is having a nightmare in midfield, and looked a wee bit better at full back, but he's never and never will be a fullback.

At the moment (and i know it's not ideal) but Broadfoot needs to play right back, and if Whittaker plays at all, it should be right mid, because he is a brutal defender.

I would have stuck boogy out there and let him maraude up and down the flank, but i think he'll be gone.

By the way, Ortiz has played both full back roles for Almeria.....just a though.

Agree0 Disagree0

Couldn't agree more. He's played there several times for the US too. For me, he's quick and athletic enough to play the role, and I also feel he'd be much less inclined to try the stupid Hollywood passes and dribbles that Whittaker seems to think he has the ability to pull off. Edu would play it more like Papac on the other side - simple passes and very occasional runs forward.

Agree0 Disagree0

Are you blind edu was shocking at right back, that winger went by him as if he wasnt there, he shouldnt be allowed near the rangers team

Agree0 Disagree0

I hear your comments I just think hes a better full back than what we have at least it looked that way and I say play him at right back see how he does.

Agree0 Disagree0

No no no, what is it with trying to fit square pegs in roung holes?
If we had good standard of player to play properly in their preffered position we would see a far better level of football at Ibrox.
Sick of suggestions to play players in wrong positions, Edu is a cen mid who is lacking in confidence and has little awereness and quite clearly couldnt handle the Malmo right winger who is average at best.
We apparently have money, lets get the players in to play in their prefered position.

Agree0 Disagree0

Edu is too many peoples scape goat, remember it was his pass that set up jelavic on wednesday, was a stand out against the millionaires of old trafford last year scored winning goal against manky mob, he just isnt a flair player in midfield and should never be played there with mcculloch

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Aug 2011 10:27:26
Delighted we got big Kyle back great player. Looking forward to the game tomorrow should be good meeting the Chelsea fans in the pub and having a bouncy lol Think it was good Craig Whyte has came out and reassured the fans we are still pursuing a number of players. People on here have been on Whyte and co's back since the opening day of the transfer window. I have faith in Whyte and of course McCoist.

Does anyone else feel that the reaction from the Malmo game was a little over the top from the media? yes it was a bad result and Glasgow Rangers should be disposing of teams like malmo without too much problems, but the press are writing it like if we beat them we were guaranteed 15m, forgetting that there is still another qualifying round to go and looking at our squad we are very poorly equipped to face a lot of the teams in this round. So we're in the europa league, at the re-building stage we're at its probably a better level for us and while financially its not great we're not under pressure to pay the banks now, i think the efforts must be on re-building, getting a good run in Europa but most importantly securing the title which means guaranteed entry to champions league next season and ridding Scottish Football of the little Ginger Shrek for good as he will surely be sacked. Lets give Ally and Craig Whyte a chance, WATP 4 in a row

Malmo scored from extended play after the corner kick that should never have been. Bouggy sending off was harsh. Whitaker was stupid even though it was a shocking tackle on him and the ball never hit the guy in the face.
The luck was definitely not there, as usual. Fans persuaded ref in big calls.

Believable2 Unbelievable3

Sorry m8 but it wasn' that shocking a tackle on whittaker, just put it down to a moment of madness(a very costly one)I thought the guy kind of fell awkwardly and slipped into the back of him but whitty should never have reacted like that, but we carry on and maybe get a good run in the el and 4inarow and i'll be a happy bear once again

Europa League potential oppnonets for the three scottish teams:

Rangers potential opponents:
FC Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk (UKR)
PFC CSKA Sofia (BUL)
FC Nordsj lland (DEN)
NK Maribor (SVN)
FC Spartak Trnava (SVK)

Celtic potential opponents:
CD Nacional (POR)
FC Sion (SUI)
PFC Litex Lovech (BUL)
SV Ried (AUT)
FK Rabotnicki (MKD)
WKS Śląsk Wrocław (POL)

Hearts potential opponents:
Tottenham Hotspur FC (ENG)
FC Spartak Moskva (RUS)
Hapoel Tel-Aviv FC (ISR)
Athletic Club (ESP)
PAOK FC (GRE)

Source: Uefa website

Personally I would be happy if rangers drew FC Nordsj lland as avoids going to a horror country and avoids potential crowd trouble (I hope). Do not want CSKA Sofia, that could be a potential trip up.

Hopefully ALL 3 teams get a favourable draw and make it through as we need it for Scottish football.

Glad big Bartleys back and hoping McCoist plays him in midfield to allow davis to be our creating force. 4 more signings please rangers and I sense a close title race.

I cannot believe some of the abuse and comments that Rangers supporters make, not only about our management team but the clubs' owner also
I found it exremely refreshing to wake up and see Mr Whyte come out in the Daily Record and attempt to distance himself from some of the high quality drivel being aimed at him from the Rangers support.
The club is in a period of heavy transition from the financial mess that it was in previously. Rangers fans have to accept we were extremly spoilt last season and if it hadn't been for Celtics slip up we would have been in the same position as we currently are.
I am content, not happy, with the direction the club is going in, I believe Mr Whyte is an extremely shrewd business man and knows what is best for our club. Signings will follow, and I believe they will contribute to this being another succesful season. So come on fellow bears, get behind the club and lets show the world why we are the most succesful club in world football

Believable8 Unbelievable1

So good to see someone talk sense, how can anyone knock Whyte at this point is beyond me, the mess we were in was not his doing and there was no rush of suitors to buy us so just think what would have happened without him.

Agree0 Disagree0

I agree and have said pretty much the same from day 1, if it wasnt for whyte just think of the players we would have sold it would of been at least 2 from shagger, jela, davis, laffs, naisy and whitts just to keep lloyds happy-face it he s saved us i think walter had had enough of constant restraint, no money unless he sells 3 players, transistion can be tough but we will find out how good our people really are -the days of us buying 5 players each summer at 3 n 4 million each are well behind us and im glad id rather have a club a well run club

I know this is getting away from the original subject matter, however, I am and I think I can speak for the vast majority of Rangers fans disgusted and ashamed of certain individuals.

I watched the game on the internet and what Whittaker did was bloody unforgivable, he held the club to ransom, he got his big money deal so you expect some commitment and attitude, not struggling tom keep the pace and the toeragory he displayed and McCulloch and Edu get there arms strapped to there sides, then Baggie, good rid den s, I am sick to the back teeth of these mercenaries, what ever happened to playing for the shirt.

The team put in a very spirited 90 mins, I have to agree with the wee man on that score, they played well even when they were down to 9 men, they still looked menacing. However as I have said these four in particular should hang there heads in shame, they have let the bears down badly, and Scottish football as a whole will also suffer for there actions.

Come on the Gers. It s still great to be a bear, lets get some strength into the team and get behind them 4 in a row here we go.

Believable4 Unbelievable0

Cant agree with all of this, i thought edu put whittaker to shame wen he was moved to right back, considering he had players doubling up and overlappin down that wing he did very well and for me should be his new position nad move whittaker into right mid to take away the responsibility of making mistakes

What price do you reckon crazy Romanov will want for under contract Templeton if he got £1.5m for a year to go, "I'm off" Wallace?

You can at least double it to £3m, but I would anticipate more like £4m. No worth it. Bit lightweight and drops out of games. Similarly Driver. Better off signing some quality for beside Davis in the middle of the park. If Rangers would not meet the more reasonable 3m for the Den Haag winger I don't see them stumping up for Templeton- and frankly, I hope they don't.

You can get tucked up by some of these Scottish teams. We have in the past, with likes of Whittaker and that dummy Thomson from Hibs, though "Scottish tax" is obviously no on the same planet as "English tax" and the premimum you pay for garbage from their league. The value is quite clearly on the continent. Unless you're making the kind of Bosman signings Celtic made this year from down there, I wouldn't even bother looking to be honest with you if funds are tight.

Why do people keep going on about lafferty coming back, he had a few decent games towards the end of the season but that's all, he will still be the same, a hot headed waste of time, we need a striker in fast, naisy is far better coming from deep, we are a one man team at the moment and jeli his on his own.

Believable4 Unbelievable7

Lafferty, should be laughalot, the lad has shown nothing no real talent, a couple of moments of what looked like he had something to offer, however he is a cart horse, a liability old firm games I cringe when he goes in for tackles better shot of him me thinks.

Agree0 Disagree0

Well do you not believe in giving someone a chance.big kyle has settled down and was playing well last season who would you get better for the kind of money we, re splashing around.support the team and stop moaning.if you have a problem with some start with whittaker or bougherra. watp. airdrie bear

Agree0 Disagree0

Why does everyone only remember the last few games? I think lafferty played well most of last season. But when he's out of position or up front alone it's too much for him. he's a good conecting player with Jela and naisy. Wheres your faith? Sad wee fans you are bad mouthing a guy who helped win us the league.

Agree0 Disagree0

Couple of games ? are you for real ? tell u what u take the last 5/6 games from the last 3 seasons (not just one) all three and u tell me his record ... go on ... tell me how many of the goals he scored were winners or the first goals. That guy has shown that he clearly has the bottle and can deal with the pressure of playing for gers .... he just needs to grow up which it seems he might be doing after settling down with his mrs and a baby on the way. Id say defo giv him the chance to prove hs can be first choice with jela, after his form last season playing up front with him he deserves it.

Agree0 Disagree0

Disagree...Big Laff will be a massive player for us, and that's from someone (me) who thought he was pure p***.

He was on 'fire' at the tail end of the season, and not just that, i seen a massive difference in the way he was finishing, cool, composed and confident, stroking them away...playing with Jella through the middle will be the making of him, with naisey behind in the hole.....

Be big enough to change your opinion, too many guys tag a player as rubbish, and that's it, i was the same with Laff, but he's gonna come good.

I also thought big Jig was magic, but ive changed me mind there as well....he should be dropped.

Agree0 Disagree0

Laffs is growing up- he was very good the 2nd half of last season and he played a huge part in keeping the spl crown at ibrox

All this talk of Alexei Eremenko on a reported 40k a week is alot of nonsense The boy was on 15k a week @ Metalist Kharkiv and the reason Killie was able to take him was because his team continued to pay most of his wages whilst on loan
Rangers have made it clear that there is no interest
Instead Rangers have turned their attention to Dinamo Zagreb midfielder Milan Badelj

a question rather than a rumour. why last week was a bit of 2.6m for boughy rejected and this week gers accepted 1.5m? anybody? or is it all just the usual media sh*t?

Believable1 Unbelievable0

Media pullinf figures out of thin air, mate. It was never going to be for 3 mil. That would have been far too good a deal. Might be that the media are pulling this 1.7 m figure out of thin air too though. We'l need to see

rangers have decided to hand odonkor contract after he impressed on trial rangers are looking for wide man and have decided they wont bid for bedoya again they will just get him in january and have decided odonkor will do until they get the amercian, odonkor likely he be handed short term deal with chance of new contract depends on how many games he plays and his fitness, Also ryhs murphy who also played in bounce game this week likely to be signed 2 he was on trial at boro they were keen sign him but after talk with kyle bartley he has decided join rangers. From good source

think we should go for le fondre, tom hateley, eremenko, juahsz will hopefully sign need to lay off mccoist he aint at blame hes dealin with a dummy in whyte bartley a good addition young lad dying for a game and obviously the team no him also think we should try a cheeky bid for lovenkrands again wages may be a bit much but players like that wee need. also novo a die hard ger for life is it worth him comin back to even just play the scum he was the main man in the pld firms always in about .

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Tom Hately is decent but not good enough, regardless of how good his dad was.

Agree0 Disagree0

Erimenko wants more money than both sides of old firm could afford was on £40k a week not paid by killie obviously but by former club

Agree0 Disagree0

Le fondre definitely worth a punt

Getting a wee bit frustrated by the signings - surely Bartey knew he wouldnt be part of Arsenal this season and could have been signed before the European deadline. Ortiz - first impressions are that Novo could have done the same if not better job. He doesnt seem too comfortable on the left, so why not get him bombing down the right and let Wylde do the same on the left. That way big McCulloch can take up a seat (or 2) on the bench and let Davis run things in the middle of the park.
Think back to when Ally played - ball into Ally(Naismith)/Hateley(Jelavic), controlled and played out to the wings, beat the full back, whip the ball into the box, GOAL.
And one more thing Ally - get the tracksuit back on and do what your good at. Let Durrant sit in the stand where he has been learning from Walter for the last 4 years, and get him to phone down with any tips.
What do you think Ed - me for next manager? {Ed025's Note - i have already put your name forward..

Naismith is nowhere near the player fat sally ever was
