Great to see some things never change. You come on here every single day slating every one of our players and some before they’ve even had a chance. That’s big soutter been written off already. Well done lads ??.

Not by everybody CaptainTav, a couple of fandan’s yes but there’s a solid core of fans looking forward to seeing the big man this season. I’d like to see him right if a back 3, I reckon we’d see the best of him.
2.) 25 Jul 2022 08:00:30
Correct CaptainTav?the usual suspects at it again ?They just don't understand football mate ?.

For years I’ve wanted a midfielder with a nasty side to mix it up when we are getting bullied. Not for 1 minute is anything about John lundstram nasty but I think we have finally found someone who won’t take any nonsense but still conduct himself with dignity and in the appropriate manner.
1.) 17 Jun 2022 22:17:50
I agree Capt our midfield has been crying out for a combative box to box midfielder that can also play. I put my hands up I never saw the transformation in him as being a possibility but he’s one of first names on team sheet now and was outstanding in latter part of season and deserved the fanfare song.
The other position that has been needing sorted for more than a good few years is RM/ RW and I’d love us to go for Akinkunmi Amoo, go watch this kid on utube, he would get bums off seats every game and go for around 3M. I get the Kent stats debate, yes he needs to score more but he is doubled up on every game, when the right side is sorted with quality Kent’s game will flourish as he will have more space to play in.
2.) 17 Jun 2022 22:22:00
He is as hard as nails. We have missed that for years.
3.) 17 Jun 2022 22:49:17
We still need a nasty streak in the side I think there's a lot to be said for a midfield hammer thrower.
4.) 18 Jun 2022 07:25:33
Love to see midfielders getting in about teams. Wee McCall was one of my faves.
5.) 18 Jun 2022 10:12:01
Jzer I see that nasty streak in McCann.
6.) 18 Jun 2022 10:51:52
I actually think he is the best on earth.
7.) 18 Jun 2022 10:59:51
Bears, when big John appeared I was sceltical thought we had acquired a lump. But then I think it was his 3rd game I noticed a turn of pace/ eagerness when tracking back. He sure has done himself and us proud with his ownership when results aren't joyful. Fair play big man all you can do is yer best. I feel he's a goodun for the Gers ?.
8.) 18 Jun 2022 11:58:34
Chunky, I'm with you. I thought we had required the player that looked disinterested in his latter days at Sheffield Utd., rather than the combative player that we have today. For me a lot of that is down to GVB and we now have the player that he clearly is.
We have a good nucleus of quality players assuming we can hold on to most of them this summer, and we have some very good young players coming through with McCann looking like another good acquisition.
For me we are just three or four players short of a team that can dominate Scottish Football and continue to do well in Europe.

Hand on heart guys absolutely delighted Connor Goldson has said signed a new deal. There is no doubt he brings along all of our defenders and coaches them through games. Yes he’s prone to an error or 2 but again, the good far outweighs the bad. We all have our favourites. Kent, Morelos, Bassey but why is it that the 2 guys in our team who are absolute machines and play every game, leave it all out there, get more stick from out fans than any other? Is it because we rely on them or expect too much like rangers fans do? Working away from my family for the last decade fully appreciates Connor goldsons predicament and appreciates even more the sacrifices he’s made. Captain and vice captain ??.

was it ever thus, ferguson, mcoist, cooper, brown, forsyth, hately, durrant, millar, miller, even de boer and laudrup1972
i could go back to the 70s, no more so than barry who was way better than his counterparts.
11 Mar 2022 05:03:38
Never Rangers Captain material? This guy has absolute balls of steel and maybe 1 day we will realise just how lucky we are to have him. Half of you lot are not Rangers fan material.
07 Feb 2022 12:08:01
Afternoon lads. Not been on as much. We were 100% rank rotten against them on Wednesday and the difference from top to bottom yesterday was night and day. Everyone fighting for each other. Saw a few posts about the bickering etc in here and to be honest the site drives me mad at times as I’m sure I do the same to others. What gets to me the most is we have a bad few weeks and some want every player binned, the management team sacked etc etc. Lost 2 in 62 is that right? . These players don’t suddenly become garbage overnight and when the chips are down really need our support. Yes it’s all about opinions and blah blah blah but anyone who thinks the answer is to get shot of x, y and zed after a bad game does not have a clue. Having 50,000 scream and howl at certain players making a slack pass doesn’t help. You pay the wages you can scream what you like? Don’t make me laugh your ticket money wouldn’t pay my golf fees never mind their wages. let's cheer them on to 56.

I don't shout and bawl at our own players while at Ibrox, but there's a good few around me who do. Every fan has the right to criticise, but a line must be drawn with some of the abuse that gets thrown about. I had it out with a poster on here when he called Tav a pr@#k on the live chat, which for me, was out of order, and is not on. Just the same as when I went OTT accusing one of our players of crapping the bed on here. Not as brutal, but I still shouldn't have done it (letting my emotions get the better of me) . If we keep with Tav here. He has been getting it for years, and no matter what he does, he still gets slaughtered. This is nothing new. I've see plenty getting the singled out treatment over the years, and on occasion, it is brutal. Criticism should be, but isn't always, done constructively! I, and many others, let our emotions take over, but there are some who constantly knock players regardless of what they've done. This won't stop! If it hasn't stopped so far, I doubt it will now. I've been guilty of saying that players need to be strong enough to brush it off, but that is wrong. Nobody know what's going on in a players head. We don't know what affect the abuse is having on them. We don't know what struggles they're going through. Just because they're famous, make loads of money, live the high life, it doesn't make them immune from mental health challenges. Maybe we should all take a step back and ask ourselves how we would feel getting some of the abuse the players get. If we're honest, I bet the vast majority would hate it, and admit it would get to them.

By far 1 of the best posts I’ve ever read on here BMGH01. Well said sir.
3.) 07 Feb 2022 13:46:21
well said, BMGH01 ðŸ‘ðŸ‘ðŸ‘ðŸ‘ðŸ‘.
4.) 07 Feb 2022 13:46:29
Maybe just me but also shoutimg willie collum your a wan##r will not help us get any decisions.
5.) 07 Feb 2022 13:49:21
Spot on, I remember that live chat incident bmgh. Made my blood boil also.
Our players try their best and have off days like everyone else, but to call them offensive names is bang out of order.
6.) 07 Feb 2022 13:59:00
Well said BMG.
7.) 07 Feb 2022 14:02:30
I wouldn't say your criticism of Borna was OTT because that's exactly what he done. His bottle crashed big time and his performance was one of the worst ever. Because he was so bad then i doubt he will get much more game time this season. Bassey is rough and raw can't header the ball but gives 100% every time and never shirks away from a tackle and will only get better. In your biggest game of the season you don't expect your experienced players to play the way Borna did and that is inexcusable.
8.) 07 Feb 2022 14:22:04
BMG we all have the moments at the games! But some of the abuse is beyond belief! I've heard it start after the first five minutes as soon as there's a pass back.
9.) 07 Feb 2022 14:36:07
You could tell Collum you loved him, Paul86, and he still wouldn't give us any decisions! 🤣🤣.
10.) 07 Feb 2022 14:37:25
Great post BMGH agree with you 100%.
11.) 07 Feb 2022 15:03:34
BMG, I don't know how old you are, bu I've been to Ibrox and away for 50 odd years now and it's not a new phenomenon. I don't know why it is but the horrendous dogs abuse our players get and have received in the past is beyond me. I know I keep harping back but Tommy McLean got the worst I've ever heard, awful. So as I've said it's nothing new but still does nothing to help the team.
12.) 07 Feb 2022 15:27:01
BMG excellent post. One of the main reasons i gave up my season ticket at the front of the govan a number of years ago was because i spent more time arguing with those around me who thought it was acceptable to shout at and abuse our own players for whatever reason on the day but then give up and leave after 75 mins to go to the pub. Nobody sets out to have a bad game and whilst the O. F. result still hurts like a kick to the stomach it was also down to them playing very well on the night and getting us on the back foot right from the off as much as it pains me to say it. they've responded the best way they can. let's see what the rest of the season brings.
13.) 07 Feb 2022 16:30:45
I've had a few arguements over the years, athole, as I find it hard to bite my tongue.
Parlane I'm (say it quietly) nearing the big 50, and witnessed a lot of it over the years. I started going to the games full time during the Souness years, so you can probably work out who I have seen being singled out for a particularly nasty time during a game. One guy I particularly felt sorry for was Alex Clelland. Some of the abuse he took was shocking. But there has been plenty more than him. Nothing like tearing a young boy a new one to boost his confidence. And the thing is, the ones shouting are mostly wee fuds who would s#*t a brick one on one with the target of their abuse.
Just think about this for a minute. Some of the players who were targets of the most disgusting abuse over the years have won league medals, cups, played for their country, played for teams like Liverpool (Charlie Adam), Spurs (Hutton), played in Champs league, played at World cups etc etc. What has these idiots who spew the abuse ever done?!
14.) 07 Feb 2022 17:41:48
Well said BMG. I stopped going because of that for a long time . Unfortunately I hear the same s××t every time I go back. It's depressing. Might as well stay at home and listen to my own foul and abusive language, at least I only offend myself.
15.) 07 Feb 2022 17:46:41
Alex Clelland there is a Name I haven’t heard about in. Along time
I remember Alex Clelland putting in some great performances for Rangers I actually liked Clelland and he never got the appreciation he deserved I don’t think goi g up and own that right side?
27 Jul 2022 11:14:45
How do you know he was refused?
10 Jul 2022 12:26:49
I think fashion jnr will go to be honest. The alarm bells started ringing for me at the tail end of last season when we had no strikers/ limited options in attack and the wee man still warmed the bench. Very likeable tho.
12 Feb 2022 23:32:08
Btw my post above was no criticism of Andy firth. I actually think his celebrations are magic ðŸ‘ðŸ».
12 Feb 2022 17:19:37
I think it’s hilarious he never plays or even gets a place on the bench but is always at the heart of all of our victory celebrations. He must have some patter.
07 Jan 2022 13:13:10
I wouldn’t be giving Dundee Utd anything. Horrible club from top to bottom.
31 Jul 2022 08:00:30
Totally agree, dreadful post. Have 2 paracetamols this morning big man.
09 Jul 2022 23:25:11
My opinion is that if you are going to post when you are mooned, please translate in the morning mate.
11 Jun 2022 12:35:44
You have got some brass neck even commenting on anyones european campaigns. Embarrassing.
14 Mar 2022 11:23:21
It’s interesting the amount of fans who don’t like or rate goldson but when predicting lineups and resting players he’s in their team every week. I think he will be missed.
