Anyone know the deal with young Hastie? Is he going out on loan? Hasn't even sniffed the bench since after pre season.
1.) 14 Aug 2019 13:29:22
We've only played a handful of games.
2.) 14 Aug 2019 13:44:29
I would think it depends on the situations with Murphy and Kent. If Murphy goes and we don’t bring Kent in then I would think he stays as a squad player. I’m more concerned about spending 4m on a CB who in my opinion shouldn’t be put anywhere near the team just now as we are doing well with the CB pairing we have. Money could have been better spent IMO.
3.) 14 Aug 2019 14:02:44
There's just some folk you can never please.
4.) 14 Aug 2019 14:07:37
Flip side. Katic Goldso injured. Oh we don't have a cb. get real man.
5.) 14 Aug 2019 15:35:53
Gerrard said he would be taking his time introducing Helander to the first team when he signed him. Chill out.
6.) 14 Aug 2019 16:18:48
Why play helander for no reason. He was brought in to improve our defence. Through the competition he has done that. When one has a dip in form he will get his chance.
7.) 14 Aug 2019 16:48:40
We have a long season if we progress to the group stage so having 4 cbs who are all good is only a good thing. Competing to start does wonders for a players ability and we have god competition in a number of positions this season.
8.) 14 Aug 2019 17:03:05
3 mill on helander! SG says katic is playing well so what's the problem? c'mon lighten up a bit . look at it from the view of what is katic worth if he continues to keep playing well and keeping helander out?
9.) 14 Aug 2019 18:21:06
And it gives us the option to play 3 at the back. Or if a big offer comes in for Katic in the next couple of years we don’t need to panic about replacing him. Anyway good luck to Hastie if he does go on loan 😂.
10.) 14 Aug 2019 18:50:03
Im glad we have been able to help Hastie with his bench sniffing fetish, I really hope that's him cured.
20 Jun 2019 02:34:47
Kent signing imminent. My source is. Mikael Lustig told me at the petrol station heading out of toon.
1.) 20 Jun 2019 05:32:27
Good one Blue89.Lustig was staying at celtic, 'till he heard ryan kent was coming back to rangers. Kent absolutely terrorised him. Wonder if there was any truth in the ibrox old firm game in december last year, that lustig said to brenda rodgers at half time while pleading to come off, brenda he said, "i honestly don't know if i'm Mikael Lustig or Michael Caine"! . Kenty gave him an absolute roasting in 3 of the old firm games.
2.) 20 Jun 2019 07:13:00
Yeah its disappointing Lustig is leaving as he was awful and a real weak link .
3.) 20 Jun 2019 09:01:20
Was Lord Lucan at the petrol station as well Blue 89?
04 Jan 2019 21:16:46
Is anyone else underwhelmed by the potential signing of Jordan Jones? He's played over 100 games and only has something like 9 goals and 22 assists. I feel he'd be like another MOH. Would much rather give the chance to Middleton whose almost scored as many goals and provided assists as Jones has and he's only played a handful of games for us. It also makes me think that we wouldn't be going for Kent permanently. We've also got Murphy to come back as well.
Kamara on the other hand would be a cracking free signing. We need a box to box midfielder like him.
1.) 05 Jan 2019 00:01:05
Decent age, current international, good value on a pre contract. Currently playing in a team that is defying all odds to challenge. I would trust SG as he must see something of interest.
2.) 05 Jan 2019 01:19:10
I don’t agree that being young and an international means you’re a good player. Lee Hodson springs to mind. I trust Stevie G and hopefully if he does sign he proves me wrong.
3.) 05 Jan 2019 01:23:45
Blue89 you called it right, I'm underwhelmed by Jones and Kamara is a far more intriguing signing.
4.) 05 Jan 2019 10:53:39
Does us signing Jones on pre contract mean we won’t be signing Kent permenantly.
5.) 05 Jan 2019 11:57:08
Give the kid a chance (Jones) remember a few teams in the English championship wanted him, Aston Villa, Leeds United, and some other team I read, but he turned them down to sign for Rangers, he plays for NI but he’s a born and breed English man, so to pick Rangers over those other teams gives him a few browny points in my book.
6.) 05 Jan 2019 13:28:36
'Kid' Ulsterman? He's 24, he's been an international for two years, he's made just a little progress in that time and the other clubs being after him were no more than speculation. First time I've ever questioned a signing but we'll wait and see.
7.) 05 Jan 2019 15:49:56
He’s a kid to me, but we’ll wait and see,
8.) 05 Jan 2019 18:41:46
So with those stats at killie. He either scores or sets up a goal every 3 games. Then he comes to us who he supports and was dying to sign for. Let's see what happens.
9.) 06 Jan 2019 01:51:24
Jones will probably go on loan next season decent free signing if it doesn’t work out in a year or 2 we move him on for a modest fee it’s the modern football way.
02 Jan 2019 01:06:46
The only thing better than Davis signing would be Davis signing and him getting the number 55 on the back of his strip. Make it happen Stevie G.
1.) 02 Jan 2019 10:46:09
Haha ah few Timmy's biting at that one . lol.
2.) 02 Jan 2019 13:36:55
or number 90 and stand to Andy H's right in team pics.
3.) 02 Jan 2019 14:29:28
Aye cause that wouldn't look stupid if we don't win the league blue 89. let's keep our dignity👍.
4.) 02 Jan 2019 20:35:09
We will win 55 at some point coldo 👍.
27 Dec 2018 20:51:57
Can someone explain to me why signing Shankland would be a bad idea? He's 23 and would probably cost less than 400k. If it didn't work he could be sold.
The Nicky Clark comparison isn't valid because Clark was playing in an even lower league.
The other thing folk aren't realising is that we got Morelos from the Finnish league, which is surely no better than the Scottish Championship. If we had that mentality with Morelos we would never have signed him and be talking about selling him for 15 million.
1.) 27 Dec 2018 21:48:10
Totally agree blue 89 i can't see the harm in shankland joining rangers.
2.) 27 Dec 2018 22:30:36
Well said mate it's a no branner.
3.) 27 Dec 2018 22:30:42
We won't get him for 400k before end of season, no incentive to sell him for that as if Ayr go up its worth about 1m to them. Might get him pre contract for next season.
4.) 27 Dec 2018 22:43:25
I was one who compared to Clarke, but then I thought about Andy Robertson. It could go either way, but a low risk factor.
5.) 27 Dec 2018 23:11:38
Morelos was too good for the Finnish league in the same way that he is too good for the scottish but you have to start somewhere. Shankland if he came would hardly get a start behind Lafferty and Morelos and would that be good for the lads development.
6.) 27 Dec 2018 23:41:23
Makes sense good post.
7.) 27 Dec 2018 23:53:31
It's a pretty low risk move, I don't really see any reason why we shouldn't go for him, we need at least 1 or more attack minded midfielders that could allow us to play different formations effectively. That could allow playing with 1 or 2 up top but of course you need the right players for any formation, it would just be nice to be able to change it up sometimes without having to play players out of position.
8.) 28 Dec 2018 02:27:27
If he is out of contract then sign him up and leave him at Ayr for the rest of the season, we need players who come straight into our first 11, two or three at least, our poor December has now made this game on Saturday a 6 pointer, win and we are right in it, lose and its long way back, draw and there’s still hope and the result could affect the boards willingness to get quality in.
9.) 28 Dec 2018 04:33:03
Morning boys well not long now derby day is on the harizon buzzing as this is the boys first auld firm let's get in to those persons.
10.) 28 Dec 2018 08:31:57
Blue it's a no brained to sign this boy. He definitely could turn out to be an asset at a low cost.
11.) 28 Dec 2018 08:59:45
I’ve never seen Shankland play so I’m going by his scoring rate and what the other posters say. But the second division in Scotland is a far cry from the Premier league, would he be able to make the step up?
12.) 28 Dec 2018 10:36:17
That was an excellent point blue89, never crossed my mind concerning the Finnish league. Your on your game this morning.
😝.
13.) 28 Dec 2018 12:39:48
I would request him on loan to buy but give ayr a few players on loan.
14.) 28 Dec 2018 18:34:10
Yep, sign him and give Ayr Dallas on loan the rest of the season, win-win all round.
15.) 28 Dec 2018 18:58:03
Ayr won't get promoted, stadium doesn't meet requirements. Whoever signs Shankland will have to loan him back to ayr as part of deal or they won't sell, Shankland already aware of this and happy to stay at somerset park rest of season.
16.) 28 Dec 2018 19:16:51
FB it's already been decided by SPFL that ayes midden meets criteria to be promoted.
They done away with 6000 seat rule few years back
I want better than shankland, any signing must improve the eleven not the squad.

I tell you what, if Ryan Kent does come back he'll be under some pressure to put a ten out of ten performance in every week because folk on here are acting like he's Brian Laudrup!
1.) 21 Aug 2019 18:57:43
What do you mean acting like he's brian laudrup? Ryan Kent is better than brian laudrup Blue89!🤔.
2.) 21 Aug 2019 19:45:45
Cooper, you often talk pi$$ at times but you have outdone yourself now. Kent better than Laudrup? jeezo i am speechless.
3.) 21 Aug 2019 19:49:10
Hes no Brian Laudrup He barely passes for a Jerome Rothen!
Hes no near as good as Laudrup, Cooper, McCann or Kanchelskis and/ or Mark Walters.
4.) 21 Aug 2019 20:07:11
😂😂😂.
5.) 21 Aug 2019 20:14:42
If you can't see that was said as a laugh you need to go and push the reset button on the back of your nut. Come on people!
6.) 21 Aug 2019 20:23:16
Good work coop 🎣🎣🎣.
7.) 21 Aug 2019 20:25:37
So easy c_of_ibrox, so it is mate! 😂😂.
8.) 21 Aug 2019 20:34:27
Clearly coop is having a laugh👍.
9.) 21 Aug 2019 20:48:18
Gerrard loyal, that is the stupidest statement I've heard in a long time, Kent is a good player but Brian laudrup is one of the greatest footballers to have played in Scotland. I don't know if you ever seen him play, if not look on youtube.
10.) 21 Aug 2019 21:42:41
Laudrup, Kent both couldn't do the velcro straps on Nuno Capuchos boots.
11.) 21 Aug 2019 22:13:01
Oh ready, I can assure you i saw the terrific brian laudrup play many times for the teddy bears. On home soil and foreign soil may i add pal.
Think about it. I have been following rangers boy and man everywhere for 40 odd years now my friend. 🤫.
12.) 21 Aug 2019 22:18:35
Goodness Coop they took a big bite🎣🎣.
13.) 22 Aug 2019 00:56:11
Nuno Capucho😂 he was no Egil Ostenstad though!
14.) 22 Aug 2019 09:44:27
Gerrard loyal, and I've been following Gers for 50 years so I know the difference between Kent and laudrup, good and great.
15.) 22 Aug 2019 11:21:24
Ready, has the penny not dropped yet pal? Honesty goodness! 😂.
16.) 22 Aug 2019 17:45:46
Shortly after joining Rangers Laudrup was the subject interest from Barcelona. Laudrup told a concerned Sir Walter “boss I prefer to stay here and play Falkirk”.
16 Aug 2019 13:13:45
It still baffles me how bad the Scottish media is and how bad they are at their jobs. After listening to some of the pressers in the last few days it's shocking how they don't even know simple things.
Stevie G was asked if Barker would feature last night. -Wasn't signed before the team had to be listed for Europe.
Raman Bardwaj asking Andy king today about being the highest scoring midfielder in the EPL- he laughed and said I think it's just at Leicester
Ridiculous how these folk are in a job.
1.) 16 Aug 2019 14:08:23
Big Raman I think is a big Celtic fan if I am not mistaken
But I would have to agree they often talk a load of Craig White. Look at big Chris Mutton on BT Sport often to be found dribbling on with his anti Rangers agenda
Then look at Dumb and Dumber on the BBC
I remember the days when you could bump into some of the Rangers players in the DISCO at Hamilton Palace
Doon the Vim Janson ( dancing) at the Hugh Dallas ( the Palace) occasionally they has TV guys with them for a night out. No chance of that now
Rangers are a very professional outfit and good days are not far away now
DISCO inferno get they lights on
Disco lights for champions league nights
You got to love it £4M up the chocolate spider.
2.) 16 Aug 2019 15:08:10
Ramon bardwaj is a big rangers fan i can assure you william king.
3.) 16 Aug 2019 15:37:50
Raman is a big blue nose.
4.) 16 Aug 2019 16:31:59
Rangers or smelltic, the guy is awful at his job 😂.
5.) 16 Aug 2019 16:57:37
I am surprised at that but I’ll take your word theta Raman is a blue nose.
11 Aug 2019 10:15:21
I'm going to make a prediction that Barker will be as influential as Kent was. I think Gerrard and Allen have been extremely clever with this one if you look at the similarities of the two players:
Both roughly same age
Both came through big clubs in England's youth systems and were standouts
Both play on left wing but mainly right footed
Both have similar playing styles
Both are brave and won't hide when things don't go their way
Both have had several loan stints with "unimpressive stats"
Both sound and talk exactly the same 😂.
09 Aug 2019 18:21:58
For everyone that is missing Kent (cough Coldo), close your eyes and listen to Barker talking. Sounds just like him😂 he's not coming back lads so this might soften the blow (cough Coldo👍)
P. S your boy Morelos was stinking last night as usual 😉.
1.) 09 Aug 2019 18:31:35
Ur blind mate he scored and set 2 up you
2.) 09 Aug 2019 19:14:28
I have gave up being sarcastic on here mate. Even winky faces is not enough for some folk to get the picture lol.
3.) 09 Aug 2019 20:11:37
Brilliant, I thought the winky face would give it away but obviously not C of Ibrox.
4.) 09 Aug 2019 20:50:37
Oblivious. A 4 year old could've pegged that as sarcasm 😂😂.
5.) 09 Aug 2019 22:49:17
100% agree mjg1067😂😂👍.
05 Aug 2019 19:22:33
Not to do with Rangers but had to mention the Harry MacGuire transfer. Just about choked on my cornflakes when I read 80 million. That's absolutely scandalous! Just ripping the p! sh out of the game now.
1.) 05 Aug 2019 19:41:00
Still doesn’t beat Ollie McBurnie for £20 million!
2.) 05 Aug 2019 20:09:14
Or the KT figures. Saw one of them write that they should demand 50 for Ajer. No wonder they slaughtered St Johnstone with the multi million pound superstars they have 😂.
3.) 05 Aug 2019 20:14:35
yup i was there that day
THOUSANDS hibs fans invaded pitch attacked our players and managers wrecked pitch
just a bit of over exuberance tho eh.
4.) 05 Aug 2019 20:20:29
C of ibrox some of our guys do exact same, they said 20 million fo Barisic based on he plays for Croatia.
5.) 05 Aug 2019 21:30:44
See Bournemouth want 75million for Ake. The game down south has gone mad.
6.) 05 Aug 2019 22:13:29
Maguire for 80m, Bournemouth have quoted 75m to Leicester for Nathan Ake (apparently), and Brentford and Bristol city have both just sold players to Brighton for 20m each. It's past embarrassing down there now and I can't wait until the day the *rse falls out it all.
7.) 05 Aug 2019 22:55:59
Don't forget Neal Maupay from Brentford to Brighton for £20 million. It is getting ridiculous now.
21 Aug 2019 21:50:17
LOL, unbelievable the crap some people talk just.
16 Aug 2019 20:42:37
Life of the party as usual Rick. Lighten up man. The guy bangs in goals for fun. And I’d be willing to bet you good money he’ll score against Celtic this year.
16 Aug 2019 12:56:12
I don’t mind him coming in at all because it’s another quality player. The two things that worry me are
1. I sincerely hope there is not a clause saying he has to play “x” amount of games. We seen what happened with Worrall.
2. Since it’s the last year of his contract at Leicester and Rodgers is their manager, I can see this being some sort of a deal where Alfie goes to them in January (as coops mentioned in a newer post)
16 Aug 2019 00:21:33
Just announced an hour ago.
14 Aug 2019 21:06:49
Mr grumpy, I think it means Dorrans is done which most people thought anyway. Arfield is being considered a forward I believe. I’m not concerned about having another player because it will improve the competition for places. The thing that worries me is the amount of deadwood we have collecting a wage. Surely there is a plan to get shot of them.
22 Aug 2019 12:44:42
Hemdani or Papac.
22 Aug 2019 12:43:55
I agree he was good going forward but his defending was woeful at best. The amount of times he got caught out of position was shocking. He also wasn’t very physical and I think that’s what Gerrard was addressing when he first came in the door.
22 Aug 2019 00:56:11
Nuno Capucho😂 he was no Egil Ostenstad though!
21 Aug 2019 17:25:43
I think Barker was left out leaving space for Helander to come in.
21 Aug 2019 02:49:30
Cambiger, remember Riquelme as well. One of the most underrated players ever I believe.
