Does anyone have reliable info on Alfie's return, will he be ready for qualifiers? Roofe also still injured I believe.
Bit concerned we need another striker.
1.) 11 Jul 2022 10:38:04
Should go for Adam Armstrong available on loan.
2.) 11 Jul 2022 11:25:53
If Morelos and Roofe are not going to be back in the next couple of months we need to have some cover other than Colak.
Even a quality 6 month loan would help
We can’t go through CL qualifying being light up front.
I’m sure the club will have this covered.
3.) 11 Jul 2022 11:33:44
I think someone said sept for Alfredo.
4.) 11 Jul 2022 12:18:45
Yep, we don't have Aribo to throw in as a makeshift centre forward now, so I hope Colak gets up to speed quickly!
5.) 11 Jul 2022 12:23:55
Gio says Morelos doing well and will be on pitch this week to step up his training.
6.) 11 Jul 2022 12:24:19
Frank the tank it’s not easy to get a quality loan in.
7.) 11 Jul 2022 12:31:13
Stormtrooper- 100% agree I just feel we are light going into the big games and if the option was there then we should look at it.
8.) 11 Jul 2022 12:41:33
Robbie Ure was in Portugal. I’m surprised more people are not pleased by this news. 6ft 4in and built like a tank, good touch as well. I hope he gets a chance this season.
9.) 11 Jul 2022 13:15:42
Anyone know what's happening with Juan Alegria pre season, wasn't involved in squad v Sunderland or b team squad v glentoran, thought he woulda been pushing for first team squad, he injured?
10.) 11 Jul 2022 13:24:01
Jzer- decent player but probably hefty loan fee but I would like us to get Simms who had a spell at Hearts and is currently at Everton.
Loan with an option to buy possibly.
11.) 11 Jul 2022 13:38:56
Tam Alegria has had a poor loan spell at Thistle, he's not ready to go the first team squad, needs to go on loan to another spl side this season imo.
12.) 11 Jul 2022 13:39:05
Club haven’t been happy with Alegria he’s been really poor and a few people don’t think he’ll last the season with the club.
13.) 11 Jul 2022 13:42:50
Tam, alegria is miles off of being pushing 1st team. Really struggled at partick. Hopefully another loan this season he can push on. Arbroath or the likes maybe.
14.) 11 Jul 2022 13:48:41
Aribo scored one goals as a cf for rangers shouldn’t even be considered even if he didn’t leave.
15.) 11 Jul 2022 14:04:57
Spoke to a mate of mine who is a thistle supporter. Says Alegria was a major disappointment for them so not going to be near our 1st team. On the plus side he did think Lewis Mayo has done well.
16.) 11 Jul 2022 14:08:14
I know I will probably get slaughtered for this but what about Sam cosgrove for cover his stats where great in the spl 70 games 30 goals 5 assists would cost 1 million or under would obv be 3rd choice down to 4th if no one was injured.
17.) 11 Jul 2022 14:10:46
Real concerns re alegria fitness levels, told he returned more than 10kg heavier
This could be one that does not work, although he can finish.
18.) 11 Jul 2022 14:12:13
Better touch than Morelos.
19.) 11 Jul 2022 14:44:46
BAR72,of course we all hope big colak hits the ground running right away but on the flip side he may need a little time to settle into being a rangers player and the way we play, so we as supporters need a little patience and get right behind the guy! I'm sure he'll be a really good signing for us ?.
20.) 11 Jul 2022 14:49:18
I just wish roofe wasn't so injury prone as without a doubt imo he's the best finisher in scottish football bar none ?Roofe is a tremendous one on one finisher, scores all types of goals, terrific movement, superb with both feet and terrific in the air? He's so composed in front of goal and his talent has never been in question ?
He's a very natural finisher ?.
21.) 11 Jul 2022 15:22:31
10kg? That's mental. Huge amount of weight to gain.
22.) 11 Jul 2022 15:44:44
True blue actually quite shocking for a professional.
I know when he arrived he was put on a diet, running program and lost 6kg. Our sports scientists could not believe how bad his recovery was.
23.) 11 Jul 2022 16:05:09
Sir Walter, agreed re Colak, but we don't have that luxury in the next month or 2.
I'm sure Gio has a plan.
24.) 11 Jul 2022 16:27:53
Big Colak had no early season issues last you as we unfortunately discovered.
25.) 11 Jul 2022 17:31:28
10kg overweight? Was that not his suitcase when he came over fae Columbia ??.
26.) 11 Jul 2022 18:19:47

My take on yesterday and where things lie
Clement is hopefully the right man he just needs time for 2 reasons
1 this is a real rebuild that is badly badly needed and tbh most of the summer signings have looked good ie cerny Jefte Barron of course the loss hurt and we where terrible yesterday but I have some faith and secondly if we do sack him we then bring in another manager who will need to do another rebuild with no money
2 yesterday was rubbish but if u analysis the game as a whole it's about moments and in the major moments they got a bit of luck propper slipping at the first goal if he doesn't slip he clears that ball no goal to Celtic
2nd goal Butland is not set properly and it's a quality finish
3rd goal takes a massive deflection but other then that we where brave at the back especially on the ball for the most part we had chances and moments but didn't take them (Dessers again, when given a chance has to do better )
3 the gulf is not as big as some seem to think yes there better than us but not miles better
We don't know how the new signings will work but hopefully better than what we had (still disappointed inDiomande for 4mill)
We need to back the team.
1.) 02 Sep 2024 11:53:21
KP sorry but they never got out of second gear that’s how bad we are.
Hope your right and the fans remain patient, results will dictate that.
2.) 02 Sep 2024 12:00:46
having watched the game its not just that got beat.
Its how we got beat and that we put up no real fight.
It will be a long difficult season and let's be honest getting a good result at Parkhead was always a challenge. The bigger test will be when we play Celtic at Ibrox.
But the likes of Tav and Dessers cannot be starting in Old Firm games anymore.
PC can be given all the time in the world but what are his tactics/ system and his poor sub timings/ choices and on top of that the waffle he gives out after a bad performance.
Surely it is the mangers job to organise the players and get them playing a certain way, regardless of the lack of quality in the squad.
3.) 02 Sep 2024 12:05:12
KP ranger, you're delusional.
4.) 02 Sep 2024 12:19:08
I agree we can't keep changing managers and I like that PC is trying to make this board realise how we have to move forward regarding profit and sustainability however saying that there is serious issues that need resolving.
1. CEO appointment needs to be done and asap.
2. Moments you say, we had no moments until they were already comfortably winning.
Tav switched off for the first goal.
1 pass and our midfield is nowhere, Kyogo picks it up and turns and passes into the net as Butland was nowhere near the right position.
3rd goal was a slight deflection and McGregor was able to just run past our players.
The gulf is huge, they never got out of 2nd gear as they didn't need to.
The biggest difference was the hunger and desire, Kyogo makes a full sprint back into his half to win the ball. Dessers/ Lawrence on the other hand just stand around moaning. It's a mentality thing.
I will start to back the team when I see them trying, even against the other lot in this league we have looked lazy and lethargic. We need a Scottish captain in our team and someone who will give these lazy buggers a kick up the back side.
Also we keep playing Tav!
5.) 02 Sep 2024 12:24:29
Ally been quiet about dessers 1st chance he gets back in on dessers he wasn’t the reason we got beat yesterday but you keep thinking that ?.
6.) 02 Sep 2024 12:28:31
Unfortunately we were outclassed and outfought by a Celtic team that won at a canter. They could easily have scored five or six and totally embarrassed us, yet we grasp at straws.
We lacked leadership, I'm really struggling to work out what our tactics were and our players were like rabbits caught in the headlights.
PC has a long and difficult task on his hands if he is to make us a winning team without the serious funds to strengthen the positions that need strengthening.
It isn't just about football ability, it is about mentality and too many of our players, including the captain had already lost that game before they walked on to the park.
We need a couple of old heads that know what it is like to play for a team like Rangers and we are desperately in need of leadership both off and on the park.
7.) 02 Sep 2024 12:34:10
Yesterday wasn’t a one off, it’s a reoccurring theme. The same bad movie over and over again. There was no luck involved. They made us look amateur at best. What game were you watching?
8.) 02 Sep 2024 12:35:04
Mental post, absolute mental post.
Kyogo wasn’t a great finish, it’s absolutely horrendous goal keeping, I’ve seen better positioning from under 14’s.
If he’s in the middle of his goals Kyogo is unlikely to even try a shot.
9.) 02 Sep 2024 12:38:29
I think as a squad we’re scared of Celtic and unlike most teams we never gained confidence from starting fast (for once) and putting them under pressure. The disallowed goal seemed to spook us and from then on we were absolutely abysmal. I personally don’t blame Clement for that as he set us up well the first 10 imo and he can’t do anything about the players wetting the bed. Clement isn’t free from criticism in any way but when the players collectively crumble then what’s he supposed to do? Tav sleeping at the back post for the first and Cerny with a weak tackle for the second is nothing to do with Clement. Must say though subbing on Igamane was bizarre in the extreme and made 0 sense to me. Really poor man management imo. His post match comments were terrible as well.
10.) 02 Sep 2024 12:54:40
Storm, how can you not have a go at Dessers? He is pants. There is no defending him now.
If he keeps himself on side and scores then we are 1-0 up.
Dessers done absolutely nothing for the team.
"oh but Kyogo missed a good chance!". Aye, but he had already scored and they were winning lol - there's a huge difference.
Maybe you are happy at Dessers scoring against the pub teams and happy to be second place but for the rest of the fans we actually want to win and not babysit a 1 in 10 chance striker.
Also when was I quiet about Dessers? he scored two goals against County, and you want to sing his praises. WOW.
11.) 02 Sep 2024 13:00:57
KP,
Very reasoned argument. See in other media knives already out PC which crap. We're building what looks brand new side untried untested but on Sundays debacle defense disaster. And also movement ball/ players either. But believe in PC and what he's trying to do. Wait few months get new signings bedded in.
12.) 02 Sep 2024 13:05:03
Sorry KP, they never got out of 2nd gear and still should have won by 4 or 5. We are miles behind them on and off the park. I honestly don't think it's a case of if we can beat them this season, and more a case if we can actually score against them.
13.) 02 Sep 2024 13:24:47
Lanzarote, maybe pain talking but KP spoke perfect sense.
14.) 02 Sep 2024 13:24:50
Nothing to do with clement. Who picks the team, keeps tav as captain and puts him in the team every game when almost everybody else can see he needs to be dropped.
15.) 02 Sep 2024 13:28:29
good post DavidB However when he came on Igamane did okay. could it have been that Clement thought at 3-0 we had nothing to lose so told the lad to go on and just play as it didn't matter at that point. who was he going to put on that would have made a difference as all our players are considered rubbish by at lest one poster on here. We weren't great but we were definitely spooked by the disallowed goal. even then we had at least 4 good chances, Tav's volley, McCausland's chance and one where he took the ball off Cerny, and Dessers soft shot when he could have squared it to Cerny. so they might have scored 5 or 6 (with their 4 shots on target? ) but we might have scored 4 with ours. like PC says it is often just about efficiency of taking chances and/ or right decisions.
16.) 02 Sep 2024 13:49:24
Aye its all dessers fault, nothing to do with the ten other players on the pitch???? christ.
17.) 02 Sep 2024 13:54:31
Dessers wasn't the only reason but he was a big part of why we got beat, along with a good few others.
18.) 02 Sep 2024 13:57:24
I get the game was gone Angus and he wasn’t exactly put on with the expectation to grab the game by the scruff of the neck but I’m just questioning why then. We were 6-0 up last week and he didn’t play so why throw him into a pumping at park head? I just don’t get it at all but he did do ok when he came on I’d like to see him start the next game.
19.) 02 Sep 2024 15:01:44
Fork. no one said it was all Dessers fault. I even had Tav before Dessers in my original post but Dessers fanboys jump to his rescue as usual.
Dessers is the striker, main job is to score goals and he cannot do that without 10 chances which you will not get against Celtic so why even play him.
No one in their right mind can stand up for him now. His time is up.
20.) 02 Sep 2024 15:54:57
KP Ranger - difficult to take as a life long Rangers supporter but the gulf is massive both on and off the field at the moment.
09 Jun 2024 17:27:50
Of the following who do we want / think the club will secure
Galdames
Garcia
Rrahami
Apologies if spelling out.
Cheers.
1.) 09 Jun 2024 21:36:24
Don't know much about them so hard one.
2.) 09 Jun 2024 22:43:07
I think we could eventually end up with all 3.
Garcia and Galdames contracts are up in Dec but i think we will only go for Galdames if we sell Yilmaz as we have Jefte and young Frazer for LB.
I think RRahmani is incoming but i think any other signings will be Free Transfers, Loan to buy or Loans until we start making sales.
Kabadayi fee would most likely be covered by the money owed by Bayern for Tillmans transfer.
Free transfers been mentioned as possible interest on sites are
C. Barron
L. Kelly
B. Johnson
S. Alzate
P. McNair
R. Walters
The Walters or/ and Johnson ones would probably depend on what's happening with Tav.
Would really like us to go for Miller and Watson, and use some players as exchanges or loans to reduce the fees.
Be interesting to see what PCs plan is for Lowery, King and Devine. Is it time to cash in on these guys and make way for the next academy boys. Would like to see more of Rice, Lovelace, McKinnon and Frazer next season.
Wage bill needs to come down also, its going to be a very interesting window.
3.) 10 Jun 2024 09:40:20
Coisty I don’t think, king, Lowry or Devine will be at the club for much longer, tbh I don’t think any will make it into the first team. although all have potential and talent I just don’t think they will get game time and at the stage in their careers they need to be playing week in week out. King maybe kept for cover. We do have some promising talent at our club, a few you have mentioned but i would really like to see Archie Stevens get promoted to first team and given a chance. Think that lad can go places in his a career and if treated and nurtured properly by the club and with a wee bit luck could in the future be a massive asset for us. Hopefully with the playing squad getting revamped there is a much clearer path for the youngsters to break through into the first team. I hope PC implements a culture where we are bringing through our own talent and selling them on at a profit. Think that’s the way we need to go. The problem with that is the balance between nurturing youth and success.
4.) 10 Jun 2024 10:43:42
Tbh, I've no idea about any of them.
20 Jan 2024 11:36:02
Is there a pitch inspection at 1.00, ? dry in Glasgow at the moment. rain due later I believe.
1.) 20 Jan 2024 11:53:06
Dumbarton weather fine bit cold.
2.) 20 Jan 2024 12:13:19
Guys, had Dumbarton cleared the pitch of snow before today?
3.) 20 Jan 2024 12:35:42
There's not been any snow in Dumbarton. I've just been down to the ground and spoke to the groundsman who said the pitch is fine . had a another look myself and looks fine.
4.) 20 Jan 2024 13:11:27
Rangers whatsApp game on. happy days.
5.) 20 Jan 2024 13:22:03
Porter no snow near Dumbarton.
09 Nov 2022 12:15:17
Do we know of any plans for stadium extension ? .
and do you think we will bring some new players in (jan) or promote from youth?
Financially we do look in a good place.
1.) 09 Nov 2022 13:24:49
Any stadium plans won't cost peanuts KP ????.
2.) 09 Nov 2022 18:44:52
? offa dad joke.
3.) 09 Nov 2022 20:48:15
I think I’ll change name as KP joke tiring….
27 Oct 2022 11:28:37
For what it's worth my take on things .
To many changes game on game. sands is poor midfielder and not a great centre half, back up only given our injury list. Davis should have started with Colak.
Tillman . Sakala, Wright, matondo all to lightweight, pace but no power.
Mcgregor didn't even try for the first goal, he may be losing interest along with Kent / Alfie. (/ Kamara. (shouldn't have started either)
To many players want away and they need shifted if possible In he January window
Kent, Morelos, Kamara.
New striker, centre back, quality midfielder and winger all needed, but highly unlikely we'll get all. in . and that they will be of the quality we need to win the league
Our signing policy this season has not been great other than Colak and maybe Yilmaz.
1.) 27 Oct 2022 11:48:01
Never mind new signings, get the youngsters in and give them a chance. Lowry and McCann especially. We have no chance of winning the league with the current players. Returns from injuries in January will help (Lawrence, Hagi, Goldson) .
2.) 27 oct 2022 12:02:35
greegs certainly hasn’t lost interest
he’s lost his youth, too old now but he had to come back in, i’m sure he expected to be sitting on bench all season
mclaughlin was never good enough and caused panic in defence, , i would now give mcrorie a month or two in front of him.
3.) 27 Oct 2022 12:17:03
I've been saying for the last 2 months about Kent, Morelos, Kamara not wanting to be here anymore also Tav has had enough chances as captain and its time he gave up the armband. So many of our players are off the boil at moment that if you played most of the B team, they would probably have a right good go at whoever we play and yes might not get all the results we want but they would play with heart and pride.
4.) 27 Oct 2022 12:26:35
I would also like to see Mcrorie given a chance he’s a cracking wee keeper from what I’ve seen of him so give him his chance.
5.) 27 Oct 2022 12:42:47
Lundstrum is the 1 directing players and imo although he's also dropped levels should be captain. Number of times tav gave ball away I lost count but he's definitely playing with some kind of injury.
25 Sep 2022 13:15:31
Who would replace him?
31 Aug 2022 11:53:26
Having seen McCann a couple of times, I would like to see him play, on loan if not going to get many opportunities at the moment for us… definitely one for the future… great composure for young man.
21 Aug 2022 14:20:17
Any thoughts, inside info on the 3 in? Is
. Olaru . as midfielder?
05 Aug 2022 17:00:02
Thanks John
From what I’ve seen, Olaru would be upgrade on Kamara.
05 Aug 2022 14:44:08
If Kamara and Roofe went, any possible names being considered?
03 Oct 2024 21:46:22
Bringing on Dowel as only half time change is pretty poor….
26 Sep 2024 20:15:30
Souttar, my man of the match . tav and diomande I thought were poor in passing
Need to finish the chances…. definitely moving in the right direction .
10 Aug 2024 14:52:16
Any tips on best stream to watch todays game….?
07 Aug 2024 14:30:49
Yes . Noted Barron was on list … … ?.
07 Aug 2024 14:06:05
I would add Barron to that list ……. a proper number 6 getting stuck in and taking ball of centre half’s … very impressive .
overall I thought we were better team and were only going to get better with a few quality additions.
