Just been reading English papers wee stories here and there
Everton, West Ham Burnley interested in Tav
Swansea want windlass
Two or three championships clubs want foderingham
Morelos wanted by villa
Would be a good start.



30 Apr 2018 22:38:36
Yes Jboy and about 10 more to get off the books also, should be a busy summer again I think! Did any of you see Michael O’Halleron grinning like a Cheshire Cat when congratulating Brendan Rodgers on sky yesterday, not surprising but he can be at the top of the exit list for me!



30 Apr 2018 22:46:18
Aye wee bear, I noticed that. It’s no secret he’s a Celtic supporter but he’d be first out the door. Heard somewhere else that Candeias was having a laugh with one of their players during the game. They just don’t understand what it means to play for Rangers



30 Apr 2018 23:12:55
For some reason I have a strong dislike for O’Halloran, be glad to see the back of him. Contributed absolutely nothing but then again he’s not the only one



01 May 2018 09:10:20
The media say we have the worst team in our history.
When I think about it it's true, but now I don't blame Murty anymore.
This BOARD are a disgrace to our club appointing dud managers spending millions on dud players then throwing Murty to the wolves with probably the same wage he got at the juniors squad.



01 May 2018 17:24:23
Every one slaving our team but I see half the team's in England want our players.



30 Apr 2018 17:55:03
I was listening to Talksport today and Danny Murphy spoke with Steven Gerrard at the weekend all he would say is more talks with Rangers would take place this week.



01 May 2018 09:58:40
Agree loads to go, but some half decent money to be made on some of them



30 Apr 2018 17:27:57
The recent pressures of the job is having a huge effect to Murty's health and I'm hearing the guy isn't well. Rangers Football Club take mental health very seriously and will do everything they can to ensure Graeme's situation improves.

We could see the board placing Jimmy Nicholl in charge for our remaining games if they deem Murty unfit.

I haven't heard anything about the Steven Gerrard interest, however, it's nowhere near the finish line (as the media wants to make out) .



30 Apr 2018 18:12:20
I hope that we are also giving Counselling to whomever gave Pedro the managers job.



30 Apr 2018 18:39:41
My mental health isn’t great after watching his side and tactics absolutly brutal! Get him out



30 Apr 2018 19:17:34
Bluepete and kpnuts10. Have a word with yourselves and sto0 being idiots. If tyeir is any truth in the opening post the oast thing it merits is clowns trying to crack jokes. Mental health ain't no laughing matter. And its idiots like u who out this unwelcomed pressure on people. Support (not blindly obviously) or piss aff. your attitudes ain't welcome on these matters



30 Apr 2018 19:23:28
Gordon83 well said, back you one hundred percent



30 Apr 2018 19:57:40
Pedro is more experienced than Gerrard.



30 Apr 2018 19:58:40
Gordan a want to give u hand shake spot on bud these are the idiots that rant and rave but have never been to ibrox the closest these sick individuals have been to ibrox is finding it on google earth if true a wish murty a speedy recovery and do hope he gets his roll back as under 20s



30 Apr 2018 20:01:51
Wouldn't be surprised, everyone has a breaking point, and the constant uncertainty over giving him the job full time, managing other managers players, only giving him loan players till summer, constant pumpings in big games, no fight from players and then the Gerrard rumours behind his back.

He has given his all and done as good as he could when no one else was there to step up, he will always have my respect for that.



30 Apr 2018 20:15:46
Smodge81,true right mate! Too many on here pretend to be big rangers fans when they probably wouldn't know ibrox from breezeblock boulevard! If there's any truth in the OP regarding graeme murty then i also wish him well and a speedy recovery and for any idiot making jokes about anyone regarding mental health issues, my message to them is we don't want any morons like you, associated with glasgow rangers,
simple as that!



30 Apr 2018 20:58:30
Nothing up way Murtys health he was at the under 17s game the nite



30 Apr 2018 21:08:49
Andy Cargill you say you've heard nothing about Steven gerrard interest but it's nowhere near done if you've heard nothing hire do you know that?



30 Apr 2018 21:26:45
Shocking comments from some people but good news is murty was at game tonight. He came in with Mark Allan. Last thing anybody wants is the man to be ill but fact is he needs to go back to being a development coach at ibrox and step aside for the last 3 game before he does end up ill.



30 Apr 2018 22:03:37
Dsgersfan that doesn't mean there isn't anything wrong with his mental health go do some research



30 Apr 2018 22:08:37
Supercooper and smudge for all everyone else knows u 2 could never have been near ibrox. Hate it when folk on here think they are better fans than others you could be a couple of wee lassies sitting in your one direction jammies. If it's true get well ongramme murty my mrs had really bad depression after our 2nd baby it's a horrible thing to watch and your health comes first! @



01 May 2018 01:03:28
Murtys fine there's nout wrong with him stop all going off track to a false comment.



30 Apr 2018 13:41:03
I know you can’t just go by the betting but, I see that Graham Potter has went from 25/ 1 to 8/ 1. Are the club having someone else in mind just in case? If Gerrard doesn’t accept the job that would be a major
embarrassment for the club. I just worry that, if he really wanted the job, what is the difference with announcing it today and announcing it at the end of the week? Is he waiting to find out about what is maybe happening at the club (investment, changes to the board, etc)



30 Apr 2018 14:04:24
Odds change due to getting patterns. He obviously has had a lot of people putting £££s on his name lately so the bookies have reacted by slashing the odds.



30 Apr 2018 14:47:16
Thanks for explaining how betting works. I never would have guessed that is what happens. The question really was, why are lots of people placing bets on Potter if they all think Gerrard is nailed on to get the job.



30 Apr 2018 15:04:10
To try and win some cash would be my guess.



30 Apr 2018 16:09:12
Because it’s a gamble. If you’re willing to stick a fiver on it not much point picking the odds on



30 Apr 2018 17:30:14
Well shaft if that’s what the question really was you uttered no such words in your original post. Not even close. Poor attempt at a save mate 😂



30 Apr 2018 17:46:00
Better aff with 4 draws



30 Apr 2018 12:35:31
Out in glasgow the now on the way to visit family and was coming up to clyde tunnel and police stopped traffic to allow to blacked out vehicles onto the road with police escort and they turned off to go down towards ibrox don't know who it was just passing on what i saw so hit disagree if you want



30 Apr 2018 12:41:07
Think its Prince Harry!



30 Apr 2018 12:44:23
It’s certainly no for a football player



30 Apr 2018 12:51:48
Harry for manager? Good shout!



30 Apr 2018 12:54:17
M8 your right am looking out the window and there is 4 cars out side ibrox at the govan end of a could up load screen shot I would haven't seen anybody yet but could be interesting and bears we will be back as I was growing up rangers where winning everything this is ther time we will stop 8 in a row a don't no how thay can go from 7 in a row then to ten just shows how thick that are



30 Apr 2018 13:18:07

30 Apr 2018 13:27:14
Its Princess Anne - going to Thales at Govan



30 Apr 2018 13:34:29
Just saw on news feed that gerrard back in Scotland today for fresh talks . espn



30 Apr 2018 13:52:45
I heard from a source it’s the Queen herself she has come up tae batter Murty and tae tell King tae get his finger oot and sort this pish oot or she will not be renewing her season ticket 😜



30 Apr 2018 13:53:59
maybe we should sign princess anne

cant be any worse



30 Apr 2018 14:32:19
just to confirm the road convoy as I was held up going into work near the back of the airport at 1210pm -



30 Apr 2018 19:30:43
Was that not the poison dwarf sturgeon. I'm pretty sure she was over that way today for something. Probaly dropped by gloating about her team.



30 Apr 2018 12:27:54
Don't know if there's any truth in this, but heard from a cop I know who was trackside yesterday that Alnwick was involved in a bust up with Martin in the tunnel at half time yesterday for leaving him exposed too many times.



30 Apr 2018 12:42:15
I wouldn't be surprised as Martin is a bomb scare of cb. Can't wait to see back of him.



30 Apr 2018 22:10:07
Thot he'd do a good job but he's been rotten



30 Apr 2018 11:57:58
Steven Gerrard will be in Glasgow today for more discussions (espn)



30 Apr 2018 11:47:34
Rumour mill in Liverpool is that gerrard is going to be Kopp no 2 after his assistant chucked it following a burst up can't see anything about the gerrard aspect but definitely burst up with Kopp and his no2 this is from work colleagues in the area and it's circulating down there ever had that sinking feeling were about to get kicked square in the plums again!



30 Apr 2018 12:21:41
Klopps assistant has been given the rest of the season away from 1st team duties due to personal circumstances. Nothing to do with a fall out and doesn't affect his employment with Liverpool



30 Apr 2018 12:22:50
That will be the next thing to happen, honestly I can just see it.

However, I believe this Gerrard appointment has been in the pipeline for a while, hence why Gerrard was at the last Ibrox OF game.



30 Apr 2018 14:26:20
All doom and gloom. If he chooses not to come, we move to next target. Once we get someone we get behind them.



30 Apr 2018 09:45:09
Express reporting Liverpool assistant has quit after row with Klopp. states Gerrard could be new assistant.



30 Apr 2018 09:53:30
Gerrard to assist until the end of season.



30 Apr 2018 10:02:56
On ssn he is on a leave of absence till end of season and will not effect his job



30 Apr 2018 10:50:00
So you are disagree with a comment on ssn? some people on here just love to hit that button 😂😂



30 Apr 2018 11:52:12
Its maybe because his personal tweet contradicts Liverpools mate. Just cause SSN are reporting it doesn’t make it true.



30 Apr 2018 13:14:01
He's been put on Gardening leave.



30 Apr 2018 08:18:02
Just an update after ydays farce - Skyhi bet have SG at 1/ 12 on with NW as 4/ 1 2nd fav and joint 3rd fav is GMAC -.



29 Apr 2018 21:18:37
Evening Ed.

After that horror show today somethings needs to be done urgently or we will have no european football next season whatsoever. Do you think there is any serious chance of steven gerrard coming to us and if he does would this signal major funding for summer spending. I see it this way it is a risky chance being taken if he doe's get the job. But with his links with liverpool we could gain some good talent on loan from them and with him being a big name player world wide people could come just because he is manager. I just wish that this nightmare we are in would end and soon. something has to happen in the next few days regarding manager and investment or we are doomed.



{Ed001's Note - I have no idea what Gerrard will decide and it is up to him. As for funding, I really think it depends on what you call major. Gerrard will not take it if he does not feel he would have the backing to compete.}

30 Apr 2018 09:01:40
Gerrard is not the saviour! He is a big name ex player who has less coaching experience than Pedro, McCoist, McCall and Murty. Whatever players he brings, if ANY, will still need to be coached. We are going backwards. An under 20s coach to an inexperienced U18s coach in Gerrard. Everyone lumping in on this because of his playing reputation, take a minute and ask yourself why we can't get a half decent Cozch/ Manager. I can't believe people are happy with Gerrard but are dead against other (more experienced) names that have been mentioned.



30 Apr 2018 09:45:02
I don't see why SG would take the job? If he fails his career is dead before it starts. If Rangers want to challenge they need 4 or maybe 5 quality players. SG may get a couple of decent loan deals but any manager needs time. This King talk about guaranteeing success is rubbish. As for major investment, what is major investment. Rangers owe £17mill now. So that needs paid off with maybe another £17mill plus on top. The only way to get that back is CL football. Can't see who would want to throw £35mill into any Scottish club. The only way is to slowly grow. Look at Hibs. No debt, decent squad. Not obsessed with any other club. Supporters enjoying their football. If supporters can't accept that then all that is ahead are more years of disappointment. No one is catching Celtic soon. Maybe win some silverwear but not the league. Don't see Aberdeen, Hibs etc expecting anything different so why should Rangers expect anything because they are Rangers?



30 Apr 2018 09:55:26
you don't need to be an experienced manager to be sucessful. also gerrard if he is to be our new manager will have experienced coaching staff with him. he was the type of player who would get stuck in if someone wasn't doing their job. also we are more likely to attract a better quality of player because of who he is. I am not saying he is the answer but i believe giving financial backing and the right coaching staff in place he might just be the answer.



30 Apr 2018 10:46:10
If he does take the job, it is a piece of marketing genius. All the media attention it will get, as it is now, puts the club in the spotlight even more and makes its more marketable product in the process, driving up sponsor deals.



30 Apr 2018 12:30:45
James09, give any decent manager the financial backing he needs and he has a good chance if success. I agree with that. The question is this, how much does he need. Well if Celtic don't strengthen then maybe £12 to £15mill. Celtic sell Dembele. Maybe £15mill topps for him. Buy Edouard so no difference. Lose Rogic and Armstrong which will happen. They need to spend £8MILL to replace so that's Dembele money gone but another £5 or £6 from Armstrong and Rogic. Tierney won't go. So they use the Rogic and Armstrong money to maybe go out and buy a couple more so the gap stays the same. Rangers have little to sell aoart from Morales who is Dembele is worth £15mill then Morales is not worth much more than £8 or £9mill topps.
Celtic have £30mill in the bank. If they qualify for CL again then another £25mill is getting banked. So if Celtic want to they can step up again. Issue is that right now till Rangers, Hibs and Aberdeen mount a challenge they don't need to. So in reality the new Rangers manager needs many millions and he won't get that. So Rangers fans have no change coming next year



30 Apr 2018 14:14:24
The best players don’t always cost the most. It’s about getting Value for your money. Ceptics Squad is full of players purchased for under a £1m including regulars like Dembele, Griffiths, Gordon, Tierney, Ajer, Rogic etc
Murphy £1.2m
Candeias £700k
Morelos £1m
Cummings £900k
Docherty £400k
Dorrans £1.5m?
Ryan Jack free
McCrorie Yth
Tav £250k
Windass £100k
Mcgregor Free
Arfield Free

Basically there’s value signings everywhere from Bosmans to loan market and minor fees, it’s about targeting 2-3 positions who are your weakest which i'd say includes both CHalfs and ensuring you get good players in on favourable terms, repeat process over next few windows and we have a team to compete. Regardless of how much cash they have they won’t sanction a deal of £8m plus for any player and there’s not many players with a high value that would consider joining Scottish football.
We have a good enough GK, LB, RB, CM x2 CAM x2 RW and LW and 2ST
We need 2 1st team CHalfs, back up or competition for both full back roles.
Jack, Holt, Halliday, Rossiter, Dorrans, Docherty, McCrorie for CM I’d punt 4 and bring in other starter in CM
Dorrans, Arfield and Windass for CAM I’d punt Windass and use funds for CB or CM
Need a wide player for back up to Candeias with Arfield covering Murphy if required again get shot of O’Halloran and Pena
Keep Morales unless we get £6m plus with Cummings and sign 1 more Striker, get shot of DoDo, Herrera, Miller (gone) Niko (gone)

I know it’s difficult getting shot of players on decent money but it’s possible to loan them out, get small fee or terminate their contract for a smaller fee.
Add steel, Heart, Desire and Pride into the mix and we will get back to where we belong again



30 Apr 2018 14:29:23
Well written the Glasgow ranger. I’d get rid tav, rumour Swansea want to buy for 3.5 Million. I’m afraid I have never rated him as a defender.



30 Apr 2018 20:55:20
I agree, Tav stepped up defensively for a while with Candeias helping him but recent old firms have highlighted his inabilities again, he like Windass is replaceable and I’d expect £2m for each, insert sell on clauses and use the funds wisely. Personally I’d have Arfield playing in the 10 with Dorrans as back up if the new manager is going to play that formation.
Next 3 games may define next Season in terms of who we can attract and budget. Obv if they win Cup top 4 will suffice for Europe but let’s make sure we get top 3 minimum and build again



29 Apr 2018 23:58:49
News in Aberdeen is Wallace is going up there with Shinnie coming to Rangers.



30 Apr 2018 09:03:10
Wallace will go back to Hearts



30 Apr 2018 09:22:33
Wallace going nowere



29 Apr 2018 22:14:23
Stevie g deal finalised 100% now



30 Apr 2018 08:40:16
Dont belive till stated by rangers
