Cracking young full back. Should be deputy for Tav next year unless tav goes before then and would probably still need to be a deputy as not quite ready yet.

The boy is ready.

John25, i mentioned his name on here a couple of weeks ago, maybe even a month back, and you said he wasnt ready, did you not, i said patterson edmonson, catic and barasic, should be our back four.

He’s ready to be introduced, not sure week in week out yet, should be in squad ahead of guys like Polster who we r trying to get rid off. Another full back got extended deal today, James maxwell lad we signed from Falkirk. Very good going forward.
We seem to be tying up our best young players.

Paulellen, would like to see that back 4 play in cup against Stranraer next month.

Yes you did mate, John it seems to me like you believe your an authority on here, relatively new to this site too, you had a girl in the first team last week and now you have two opinions on Patterson, not ready and ready, very strange indeed.

Tomster I’m dyslexic, he is ready to be introduced to first team squad, not ready to be a first pick every week. I’m certainly no aothority, u don’t like my posts ignore them.
I won’t lose any sleep at all.

As for girl tomster post younger in cheek, this site is turning into a Celtic appreciation society.

Bankie, that's our strongest back four mate, that's just my opinion, but young patterson makes tav look like an amatuer, the young guy is exceptional.


12.) 22 Dec 2019
22 Dec 2019 20:38:04
Bankie, sorry mate i thought you were asking me if ide like to see them four against stranrear, but yes definetly like to see the two (patterson& edmunston) play against stranrear, cause ide imagine if those two were played there would be more people than me wanting to see them take the reigns, ( spelling) sounds like rains, lol.

Im not saying Patterson is not a good player but until he has scratched the surface of Tavs 156 game record at senior level he is just another youngster.


14.) 22 Dec 2019
22 Dec 2019 21:32:41
Tjbb, that post of yours is the same to any youngster, that's not played first team football, so i don't really see the logic in it.

Speaking about RBs What about the boy Houston our right back on loan at Ayr, 20 years old and has been getting a regular game on the championship.


16.) 23 Dec 2019

think Maxwell is a midfielder. another good player and only 17.


17.) 23 Dec 2019

Ulsgers totally agree with u mate. I was accused yesterday of thinking I’m authority on all things rangers.
Least I watch our young players. Academy and read all things rangers. I watch and read about all our players as I’m retired and have plenty of time on my hands. If that makes me an authority so be it. Not how I see it
Struth games I watch Maxwell for rangers and at internationallevel he has lined up on left of a back four.
He does love to get forward and may be a wing back or left midfield player.
Another young lad with great potential imo.

23 Dec 2019 14:23:15
John25, don’t think your an authority but you are well informed and enjoy reading your posts. What are your thoughts on the boy Houston out on loan at Ayr?


19.) 23 Dec 2019
23 Dec 2019 14:46:23
Patterson better than one of our key players? Our captain. Give me a break. I don't give a rubbish if you see him play some 17yo kid from Aberdeen who will most likely not make it to the top flight. How deluded can one possible be. I wish the boy well and hope to see him make the step up.


20.) 23 Dec 2019

Bankie I’ve watched this boy a couple of times at Ayr whilst on loan. he likes to get forward like tav. Can put in a tackle. There is something about him that makes me think he won’t go far in the game.
Although you did not ask the lad Kelly is an absolute standout, great passer of the ball, can shoot, also can really put the boot in. He will go all the way.
Also watched loan players, Robby mccrorie, excellent
Palmer at thistle, struggles at that level
Mcpake struggles
Shields, Dumbarton struggles.

Bankie further to your question I’ve seen a lot of our 16-18 age group, best we have ever had.
Love seeing Maxwell, Lyons, Nathan Coombes Kennedy and mebube brothers.
The lad Lyons is best young player I’ve seen in years, mb better than Gilmour although different positions, we will do fantastic if we can keep him for a few years.


22.) 23 Dec 2019

Thanks John25, agree the development squad looks very good, really hope some of them make step up. Think McCrorie could be brought back as cover for McGregor next season. Disappointed with McPake at Dundee, thought he would make breakthrough.


23.) 23 Dec 2019
23 Dec 2019 15:27:40
Bankie know what you mean re mcpake, still young.
Look at Dallas this time last year people on here wanted him in first team, went to Morton the Cambridge can’t get a game.
Tells me not good enough for Rangers.

23 Dec 2019 16:09:17
John, I'm struggling to believe you buddy. Who's Lyons? Theirs not a Lyons in our Academy or Second team. Theirs Lyall and Lowry?

CallamR, think John meant the youngster Leon King apparently interesting Man City amongst others. I’ve not seen the lad but said to be an outstanding prospect.

Nathan will be Tav’s backup for the second half of the season. Gerrard views him as a special talent.

One of the most balanced and informed posters on here John mate imo, i certainly hold your opinion and news on club mateers in high regard pal, keep it up 👍.

Rangerstalk5, cheers for that mate, even sg says that patterson is exceptional, as well as other clubs trying to lure him away from ibrox, nathen patterson is a pure bluenose, and it might be a few years down the line but he will be our captain some day,

McPake just not ready for men’s football. Looks great against boys his own age but getting bullied in the Championship.

Paul, hope you're right. We need to look for players coming through.
Tend to agree Wagsman boys need to develop further.

Ulsgers, i to, especially after the youngster won all before them this last wee while back, i also except we will loose a couple of the youngster, through them not being top players, but we've been signing youngster from all corners of the earth, so i recon there will be a lot of them to play for the first team.


34.) 24 Dec 2019

I think what's happening in our academy just now is outstanding and we are attracting some youngsters with huge potential. But and don't slate me here it will all fall to bits if there isn't a path to the first team. Its all good getting the talent in but the up and coming talent will be looking on to see if they get a first team chance. Not seen many youngsters come through our ranks recently. Mccrorie the exception but even then he was good enough for our first team SQUAD but was put on loan for experience. If you look at the likes of Ajax for example at least half their starting 11 came through the acadamy there. We need to be producing and eventually selling our youngsters for decent money. All the top teams are bringing youngster in and giving them game time in their teens, doesn't seem to happen with us. Would love to see maybe 1 or 2 youngsters get some game time in new year. I know we are going for title and European matches but what better time. Bring them into high pressure cause at our club a draw isn't good enough. As fans we demand a win in every match that's what rangers is.
