watchin rangers v chelsea on premier sports right now, how poor is edu? hes been playin like this for the best part of a year, i think he is the worst signing of the past decade, judging by the amount we spent on him anyway (2.5million), touch poor, passing non existant, posistional awareness zero, does have good pace and strength, but what use is that if he cant pass or control the ball, i say get rid and bring in ness {Ed047's Note - His confidence is shot. Doesn't help

It won't happen though and our talented youth will either rot away or leave for another club.

Totally agree our young players will just stagnate with ally as manager just like they did when walter was there.

hi guys, chelsea fan here just wanting to say what a great atmosphere today, great stadium great set of fans you have, true blues together my adopted scottish club now, lets hope we play each other every season home and away good bond between clubs now i hope, good luck for the season, cfcfan. {Ed047's Note - Thanks for your post and I'm glad you enjoyed it today. Let's hope it's gonna be a successful season for both clubs.

Agree with the people sticking up for Ally and Whyte on this, especially the guy talking about this time last year we where talking about selling murray park etc etc, but everybody needs to get off both there backs, a mean Whyte has come in tied up possibly the best keeper in britain if not the best then right up there on a long term contract, the best midfielder in scotland, and a clumsy c**t at right back, he's gave Ally money to bring in potentialy the best scottish left back at the moment, and 2 other boys and am confident along with a couple of other gers fans that there will be at least 3 or 4 still to come in. Fair enough ally hasnt done good recently but c'mon its his first time running a full team himself, he will come good and bring us the spl back to ibrox, get behind the boys watp here we go 4 in a row

That all means sod all when we're winning virtually nothing, our reputation as both as Football club and a business is being damaged, the calibre of our team is not and probably never will be as great as it once was (World Class and a European force) and our attendance is worse than it was last season with no money, no new faces and no owner etc and our own fans are getting relestless, losing heart and whatever else. I'm not talking the likes that only turn up once in a blue moon either, am talking season ticket holders etc

McCoist is definitely speaking to ''old pal'' Villas Boas for some Chelsea fringe players, he said it would be ''foolish not to use his contacts'' see this is when Super Ally being such a nice guy comes in handy. Rangers till I Die, & Chelsea welcome at Ibrox anyday.

I thought it was Ian Durrant that was pally with Boas?

CC

I have a feeling (maybe more a hope) that this is true. Just like to point out though, apparently its Durranty's mate from back when they were doing their coaching badges. But i think we'll definitely try to chance our arm with a few loanees

It's Durrant's pal, ffs get with it man

Didnt ally and durrant do their coaching badges together along with villa boas?

think today's game was good , think Hutton is a class midfielder and think he could play there for edu/Mcculloch , Bartley was brilliant today also , young mcmillian did no bad and a love how we have so many good young scotish players , and anyone else think the young lad perry did superb when he came on ? also bendikson looks like he could be the answer to our right mid problems , ad love to see a midfield of Davis , Hutton , ness , bendikson ;) thought we held our own today 1st half Watp

I agree but is Ally got the courage to play them in games that matter...so far he hasen't i think he might be scared to change to much from walters time.

Midfield of Davis Hutton ness n bendiksen, three central midfielders out of four, thts y ur not a manager n don't hav a clue

So why is ally the manager then, as he plays 3 central midfielders out of 4 every week so you and ally both not got a clue lol

bigstevie

Too young a mid field to be honest. I think, as many managers at other clubs have done in the past and still do, play one young lad in defence/mid/attack along side experienced players and let them see from a few yards away what they have to do. It doesn't work when its 3 young lads without experience trying to deal with an experienced player of any quality.

06 Aug 2011 20:41:09
I think that some Rangers fans on here need to understand that Whyte isn't just going to bid millions and millions of pounds into the club straight away, I think 1 or 2 more players will come but more will come in the January transfer window. Have patience We are the people In Whyte and McCoist we trust

06 Aug 2011 20:13:15
Did anyone else think John Fleck played very well in the 2nd half today? Always looking to create.

06 Aug 2011 19:59:06
OK lets be positive, we now need to go on and win the league, concentrate on that and if a euro bonus comes along we will take it, we need to make sure that they think we are all falling apart then sit back and enjoy...., , ps superally will always be MY legend, ,

06 Aug 2011 19:46:54
Some guy from west coast ireland, calls himself an author and blogger, has just asked graeme speirs on twitter to comment on his story that " sherriffs officers are to enter ibrox on monday" and that the scottish media are covering it up. Anyone know anything about this or is it just another wind up?

Hopefully to get edu deported on ther grounds of his criminal midfield ability. Wind up mate. BBC would be all over this if true

Is Ally gonna try and sign them up ?

06 Aug 2011 18:58:15
glad too see wee Ness back today, hopefully hes put his injury problems behind him and hope he takes his place back from Edu when he's fully fit

06 Aug 2011 18:37:26
just in from ibrox, second half was decent from a rangers point of view with the youngsters especially jamie ness and man of the match kyle hutton, the star of the show for me in the second half had to be thomas kind bendiksen he terrorised ashley cole but chelsea were awesome i have to say :) great day out and mr mccoist give this young man a chance :)

BALLY BOY

I was there also ans Chelsea were at a canter, but good performances from, Hutton, Ness when he came on and I thought Wallace had a good second half. Chelsea fans wre brilliant, we were too quiet and it reflected a stale Rangers today, but enjoyrd some classy Chelsea stuf. Rangers 'til I die

Yes bendikson and ness should be in first team, waas nice not to see dumb whit in the team

06 Aug 2011 17:49:54
Would love to see us sign Thomas Hitzelsperger , What's the chances lads ?

Would love it too, there is just too much money down south and we cant compete

06 Aug 2011 17:26:23
McCoist should go back to being assistant manager and let someone better to come in and take over, also get rid of Craig whyte hes a ***wipe hes lies to all of us, we get our hopes up then suddenly something bad happens like another team would snatch the player up.
Get rid of whyte

Where would the club be at the moment without whyte, i recall everyone wanting whyte in. its fans like you the club dont need. lets get behind the team its only been 4 games. come on ally we believe in you.

Supper ally gee him a chance every team has a bad patch

06 Aug 2011 15:55:45
Would like to ask the fans to leave Edu alone this season and pick on Broadfoot instead as he is total pish and should be nowhere near our team

Dont want any of them in the team...

How about we leave all our players alone and get behind them instead, just a thought

Andy

Just watched chelsea game broadfoot should not be in scotland never mind rangers, , , tosspot, , , , , ,

Yeah andy get right behind them, and give some of them a swift boot up the arse, , , , , , , ,

If Rangers get rid of Broadfoot they should offer him the job of head egg chef.

Wellsaid andy

People who pay good hard earned money are entitled to there opinions m8 its called democracy. In regards to Broadfoot he's NOT good enough its that simple.

Get behind all our players?? not if their going to cost us the goals Broadfoot does whenever he plays. He, s total Garbage

Exactly Andy, do you to matches and when the any of the players let us down or give away goals do you just sit there and say nevermind?? dina bloody think so, did you curse Whitt and bougy on wednesday when they cost us our champions league place, get real we, re allowed opinions

06 Aug 2011 15:34:17
You huv tae laugh really cuz i did Kirk Bigfoot and well done ally fur playing Mcmillen at right back. Lee.

06 Aug 2011 15:11:56
Does anyone know when we win the league this year if we get direct entry to the champs league or will we have to qualify?

Yes if we win the league you go straight into the group stages

Yes if we win 4iar we will go straight in to groups.

CELTIC go straight into champions league no qualifiers Hail Hail Timalloy

Whats all this if we win The league, it's only a matter of time fellow bears when grandad Davie lifts the trophy aloft again. Positive thinking. It's not as if we've got a lot to beat. The manky mob across the city are just as bad as last year.

In super ally we trust

Haw

Wrong, were better than last year, you mob are worse...Ortiz? Healy? Old man Weir?

DazzaBhoy

So i take it you base that on 1 game against hibs then timmybhoy.

06 Aug 2011 14:15:57
i thought the game was on premium soprts, its not, im pissed off lol, it a repeat at 10pm

The games on p2p4u mate

Its online on my p2p web site, loads of links. watching it and big Bartley is doing

06 Aug 2011 13:17:18
am ashamed of rangers fans right now , , CW is doing wot he can without being 2 quick 2 throw money about, , , RFC is not just a football club its a buisness, , give the guy a break, , , even they get behind there team and managment wen the going gets tough and it pains me 2 say this but they show more loyalty 2 ther club than we do 2 ours, , , stop crying the transfer window is still open and its only the beginning of the season

willie89

Yea "we are more than a club"

Spending more on decorations than your main product is a disaster waiting to happen in any business FACT you dont go into a resteruant to look at the wallpaper

06 Aug 2011 12:41:12
Seems to be the same old story regarding the latest offers. The reason Rangers have not heard back from either club is because the offers are- as usual- too low.
Craig Whyte should just pay the asking price or at the very least 100, 00 or so below so they can negotiate. Goodwillie all over again. I feel for McCoist big time.

CC

I would think if the offers where too low we would have been knocked bk by now m8t? u dnt know wot we have offered nobody does apart from ally and whyte
mark.

06 Aug 2011 11:22:20

Why are all the Europa League games kicking off at 6pm (home and away legs)?

Bazza Bear

Coz thats the time yefa have decided

TO SUIT EUROPEAN TV TIMES

They will be split half will kick off at 6pm and the other half 8pm, probably for tv reasons

Tv rights perhaps

06 Aug 2011 09:00:25
Poster at 2a.m. was spot on. Questioning the downright strange way the club is being run has nothing to do with no being a "proper fan". Does being a "proper fan" just mean you accept anything?

Why are people "freaking out"- needlessly pishing the £15m against the wall last week going out to a pub team, when based on the evidence we've seen so far, we will really miss that money probably has a bit to do with it. If you bounce out to a superior team you put your hands up, but it's another of those most galling self-inflicted wounds we major in. Kaunas all over again, as many said before it. It's certainly frustrating when you can see the car crash coming but the people supposedly running the show do nothing.

Why does Whyte keep bitching in the papers? "Why don't the punters get off my back?" The kind that won't believe it till he actually does something to justify all the hot air won't be listening, only the "true fans" that apparently swallow anything.

Randolph True Blue

Nah mate. The true fans don't swallow everything, but they don't immediately being criticising our legend of a manager and a new owner who, i think, has done a fine job so far despite both of which not having time to prove themselves. I have seen your other posts, and you usually call yourself a 'disgrunteld rangers fan'. Clearly, you are not only criticising the management of the club but you are attempting to get others to criticise it. This affects (in a very small but symbolic way) the support of our club if you can turn just one of the readers on this page into doubting Whyte and McCoist). If you do not see that, then you are neither a 'true blue' nor a clever man. In fact, id go so far as to call you a celtic fan. We are the people, we have a fantastic club helmed by two supporters Whyte and McCoist and we will be champions again this year. {Ed047's Note - excellent post. Thank you

Been saying that for days now 3mill on fixtures and fittings and nothing on his main product (£1 mill outlay would have got us £10million) need to sell a lot of pies to make up that shortfall I will be there supporting my team but wont be supporting our new kiosks

06 Aug 2011 08:00:12
Any1 else LOVE to see big Thomas Hitzelsperger in a Gers shirt? I think we'd have a new 'Hammer'. Cmon Whyte get the coin out

06 Aug 2011 03:33:44
Ness go is a NO go forgo only on loan only

What?

Im going to be honest .. al i understood there was ness

06 Aug 2011 02:01:03
im reading a lot of comments about showing "full support" for the team and ally and even whyte.

How about we try this - Rangers fans show their unwavering support every season - how about whyte gets his wallet out and backs up his big promises, in order to show his support for "his team" and ally. Thats the only way we'll move forward.

06 Aug 2011 01:48:12
re my post earlier tonight about lack of quality currently on offer at IBROX and over last couple of years..... I notice 4 disagree with those comments
guys stop burying your heads in the sand and take your reality tablets.

If you formed a team from over the last 25 years which current players would even get in a pool...the answer is none.

Should the team even entertain imposters like Broadfoot, Whittaker, Lafferty, Naysmith Healy, Edu, Oritz ..... average and unapetising fare... we want to eat steak Mr White not mince

The Scottish Media Mafia do us a huge dis-service and help pull the wool over our eyes by salivating over the tripe and the onions being served up

At the very least we need to feel that the entertainment levels are being raised

Sorry but the days of steak are gone pal an u need to get that thru ur heid an enjoy the mince


T-Bear

Naisy? Really? Yer a sad wee man and if you beleave that go support the unwashed. Sick of you fair weatrher fans talking yer dribble. If ya don't like it jog on END OF

If there is any lack of real quality then its down to lack of money and the fact murray park has not produced enough players coming through the last five years

06 Aug 2011 00:44:41
Well at least that doughball Bougherra's away. Nae loss there. Onwards and upwards troops.

Randolph True Blue {Ed047's Note - He did well for us overall.

Agree with you ed, i think the big man done a good job for us

Good luck to bougherra over the years he did r well for gers. he wanted to move on we dont have to call him it happen sometimes players move on.sure we will get some players to replae him
