John, is there been ever any news about aribo extending his contract. Even if he doesn't want to stay getting more money for his final year and us getting a bigger return would be more of a priority to me than ever giving goldson the time of day. Even if he goes in the summer we'd get more but the power that be must think if he playing how we know he can at a world cup then that's big money.
1.) 06 Feb 2022 22:25:05
Nothing. Why would he extend he gets bigger signing on less time in his contract. Walks away for nothing he is rolling in it.
2.) 06 Feb 2022 23:48:34
Kamara did they are pals. From our point of view getting any extension from him would be good.
3.) 07 Feb 2022 07:07:35
It would. But I won’t hold my breath.
4.) 07 Feb 2022 09:40:15
In paper sayin rangers value him at 10mill. would have a year left but would still like more than 10mill in the summer. As i said b4 even if we win the league i reckon half our starting 11 will be away. Come start of next season.
5.) 07 Feb 2022 09:52:44
Paul as long as morelos stays i can cope with the others going, i know no one player is bigger than the club but I can't imagine us without him, I know he's going to leave sometime but hope its not for years.
6.) 07 Feb 2022 10:58:32
Yeah mark hopefully not mate. He can go on a little dry spell then all of a sudden folk want him sold. he's so vital to our play. Night and day when he's in our starting 11 whether he scores or not. Hopefully he stays. Aribo goldson borna mcgregor davis kent kamara imo all will be away.
7.) 07 Feb 2022 11:09:27
I am probably in the minority but I would look to do a deal with Aribo, Kent and Morelos, (even if it broke our current wage structure), to extend their contracts. Morelos in particular is indispensable and that will be the case until we bring in a significantly better back up than Itten or Roofe or until one of our young guys like Weston proves that he can do the job!
8.) 07 Feb 2022 11:52:21
Hopefully we can follow the sale of Paterson with a couple of other big moves to the EPL.
Be it Kent, Aribo, Kamara or Morelos.
Appreciate we want to hold on to our talent, but we also need to show we can be stepping stone for bigger moves, as this will help massively with the recruitment going forward.
9.) 07 Feb 2022 12:34:02
Agree berkshire love to see kent sign extended etc.
10.) 07 Feb 2022 12:43:08
Itten and roofe can go in the summer, one not good enough the other injury prone, I'd have gave weston a chance before itten.
11.) 07 Feb 2022 17:18:18
EHL, perhaps with Kamara if the fee is right but if we can get Aribo and Morelos tied down on a new contract then that for me would be the best option. We can only sell players, in my opinion, if we have ready made replacements or if we are confident of bringing in better players to replace them. At the present time there is no way that we can replace Morelos from within as the young lads with potential are most likely not ready and neither Itten or Roofe come anywhere close. Indeed as mark says, both Itten and Roofe can go in the summer if we can find a buyer!
12.) 07 Feb 2022 17:35:27
Berkshire no kids any where near to replacing Morelos.
13.) 07 Feb 2022 17:41:38
Both Aribo and Kamara will leave in the summer. If we get £15m for each plus sell on that will be good business. Both have and continue to fighting for us.
14.) 07 Feb 2022 19:19:44
Agree John, I would do what it takes to keep Morelos. The guy is often the difference between winning or dropping points as we saw when he wasn't available. The cost of replacing Morelos without ending up with another Itten suggests that he is easily worth an additional £10k or more a week if that would keep him at the Club.
15.) 07 Feb 2022 23:45:10
Do we think it is all down to money with Alfie or if we make CL do you think he would fancy chance of playing in that and proving himself that may lead to better clubs chasing him.
16.) 08 Feb 2022 01:28:47
Alfie thrives in the spot light, if, and I state if we win the league, I think he would want to play CL football next season. Our best players on Sunday IMO were Alfie, Jack, Arfield. All of which have been criticised by some for being past it, done with injury’s or not interested. Let’s just get behind our team for the rest of the season and pray for 2IAR.
17.) 09 Feb 2022 03:41:02
I know jack good but fact is been out all season with Injuries played 45min and he's out injured again. No point him being great if we can only use him 1 in every 10 games and that's me being generous. Even a few years back Gerrard said we would have to manage his condition as if to say it's not going away only getting worse over time.
18.) 09 Feb 2022 03:55:33
Think we might need to settle for less for aribo unless we make champions league it might away him could be his only chance to play in it so I'd say he needs to sign extension or miss out on CHP league and be sold even if it's less maybe the 10million quoted we need to remember he left Charlton on a free and already said he wants to go also something better than nothing and we got him for nothing so 10million would be great business.
19.) 09 Feb 2022 17:20:58
Damn predictive text.
20.) 11 Feb 2022 19:18:32
Morelos is the best striker in Scotland and he thrives on being in the limelight. I don't think that money would necessarily be his main motivator but he is the one player that we simply do not have any backup for and to replace him like for like will cost us more than we can afford, (assuming that Wilson could even find such a player) . For that reason it would be worth making Morelos our highest paid player on a new three year deal.
That would give us the time to see if one of the young lads can step up or find a quality striker.
One thing is for sure, Itten will never by an option. Just look at the points we dropped when Alfie was on International duty.
11 Jan 2022 22:02:07
Southampton fans have made a video on Joe aribo and are saying he's signing for them. If Joe aribo goes there how much would they have to pay and how little ambition would that be on Joe's behalf to go there.
1.) 11 Jan 2022 22:23:19
I know, Southampton?! It never exactly worked out for Van Dyke or Sadio Mane?! If he goes, he's showing loads of ambition by playing in one of the biggest league's in the world, up against some of the best players around. Once he's there it's up to him to showcase his talents and win a bigger move, to a bigger team. Bidding starts at no less than 20m before we even entertain a bid.
2.) 11 Jan 2022 22:38:27
Why is going to Southampton little ambition? Double probably treble the wages signing on fee sets up for rest of his life and it has worked for other players players don’t want to play in Scotland they want to play in EPL mostly for any club.
For me why would he show little ambition by staying in Scottish football? A lot of rangers fans slagged brown for doing it with Celtic.
3.) 11 Jan 2022 22:38:48
Why would anyone want to go and play in one of the best leagues in the world getting paid a fortune when they could stay in Scotland and play on the odd plastic pitch and get the added bonus of trips up to Ross County on a freezing winters night.
4.) 11 Jan 2022 22:52:32
20 minimum he's by far our best player this season.
5.) 11 Jan 2022 23:12:28
Aye but I believe that aribo is proving internationally for Nigeria and with us in Europe that he could go to a much bigger club.
6.) 12 Jan 2022 02:17:51
Has to be £25m.
7.) 12 Jan 2022 04:13:19
Unfortunately going to Southamptonon is a step up on wages and benefits for players up here.
European football is the catch for us to give new signings.
8.) 12 Jan 2022 05:42:07
Sorry disagree livibear playing in premier league your in shop window each day not just European games cannot blame a player for wanting to go there and aribo is good but he’s not a top 10 team epl player yet.
9.) 12 Jan 2022 06:35:28
It’s no happening anyway apparently they are willing to pay 9million 😂 think some of them smoke crack down south.
10.) 12 Jan 2022 06:38:42
We should demand £30m with a sell on %.
Teirney to Arsenal 25 and aribo is a far more accomplished player than Teirney was when he left that lot.
Maybe wishful thinking but, Rangers should play hard ball for these players.
11.) 12 Jan 2022 08:35:51
Yeh I mean it never worked for Steven Davis? 🤷ðŸ»â€â™‚ï¸.
12.) 12 Jan 2022 08:43:21
30m plus add ons. Easy! None of this sh! te he’s not worth it. I couldn’t give a toss what he’s actually worth none if them are worth that but that’s your figure.
For me he goes summer for that kind of money.
By the way Van Dyke didn’t work out at Southampton BMGH? He got a move to Liverpool! 😂.
{Ed001's Note - I think he was being sarcastic as both Mane and VVD got big money moves and won the Champions League, Premier League, Club World Cup on the back of it.}
13.) 12 Jan 2022 09:00:38
Thanks Ed mate. I do think that GDog was just having a bit of a laugh there and his tongue was firmly in his cheek. I hope?! 🤣🤣.
14.) 12 Jan 2022 09:39:53
100% my friend!
15.) 12 Jan 2022 10:06:11
I thought that, mate. And maybe a wee wind of Ed001 regarding Liverpool?! I thought you would have picked up on that Ed001? It's not like you?! 🤣🤣.
{Ed001's Note - I am very distracted trying to sort out my visa so sorry if I missed a joke at my expense!}
16.) 12 Jan 2022 10:11:17
Southampton aka Liverpool training center 😂 shows ambition and courage if he moves and if he does good luck to him.
17.) 12 Jan 2022 11:21:15
Its easy stormtrooper to why joe aribo would quite possibly sign for southampton mate🤔Lets be totally honest here, as if aribo goes to back down to england he isn't going to go straight into a top 6 club think about it🤔He could go to the likes of Southampton and play against the best teams in england, hopefully play well, showcase his talents and then the bigger guns down there take notice🤔That's why he wouldn't be showing lack of ambition for me if he did go to Southampton🤔He would trust his undoubted ability to then get a better move at a much bigger club, by playing well against these bigger clubs👌.
18.) 12 Jan 2022 11:28:05
Anything £20m upwards i'm certain we would accept. Hopefully with a nice sell of %.
Will end up another excellent piece of business from the club selling a player we got for 500k for this sort of profit. I think we could replace the big man for far less and with 18 months left this is the time we will get best value for him before his value seriously drops in the summer.
19.) 12 Jan 2022 14:15:09
Coops I think you have misread one of my posts again as I don’t see anything wrong with aribo going to Southampton mate.
Also a lot of fans on here wanted rid of aribo that’s also forgotten about on here funny that.
20.) 12 Jan 2022 17:37:11
Aribo is one of the best players in the spl in my opinion, I'd like him to stay this window and see what happens in the summer.

After yesterday i'd like to see liam kelly get a chance. Butland has been woeful lately. Kelly has stepped up.
1.) 03 Jan 2025 17:25:17
Livibear, agree with you mate. Would be nice to see Kelly getting a run in the starting 11.
2.) 03 Jan 2025 17:25:30
don’t think there’s anything wrong with giving him a run in the team but also don’t think he had an awful lot to do and butland would have dealt with their few chances yesterday. Kelly was also caught by kyogos offside goal in no man’s land. was really impressed with his distribution though.
3.) 03 Jan 2025 17:53:22
He was very active in organising the defence and letting ridvan etc know when they weren’t where they were supposed to be positioned when the ball was in certain areas of the pitch.
Could tell he had been a club captain previously.
4.) 03 Jan 2025 17:55:48
1st Rangers clean sheet against celtic since Butland arrived.
5.) 03 Jan 2025 18:21:00
Think of Schmeichel 6 goals in 2 games catch.
6.) 03 Jan 2025 18:26:57
Kelly deserves a chance. McGregor came from nowhere rem
Le geun tried to punt hi. To Dunfermline for 150k and the couldn’t come up with the money 3 mkk ok the later he was out no1.
7.) 03 Jan 2025 19:00:57
Not the same, McGregor was just an inexperienced kid at the time Le Guen wanted rid of him.
Kelly was calm and composed yesterday but he had very little to do. His kicking was great though, way better than we`ve been used to over the years.
He`s nowhere near as a good a keeper as Butland and as soon as he loses a couple of goals people will turn on him and ask why Butland isn`t playing.
8.) 03 Jan 2025 19:41:05
That was one of the easiest debut for a Rangers keeper you could get in an old firm game. No doubting he done well, but one swallow doesn't make a summer. On Butland, I'd be looking to replace him in the summer. Certainly not as good as i thought he was.
9.) 03 Jan 2025 19:42:49
Well I don’t expect Kelly to do what mcgregor done. Just pointing out how it came about
But land will be back in goal as soon as he’s deem d fit.
10.) 03 Jan 2025 21:16:38
Kelly is a good keeper and will have the next 2/ 3 games I believe to knock butland of the no1 spot down to him to prove himself.
11.) 04 Jan 2025 00:19:00
He’s never going to knock a £30k a week player of the top spot. Just shows, Butland ain’t the answer. Celtics keep still world class for same money.
12.) 04 Jan 2025 00:31:22
Wouldn't say wc limping wouldn't even say close to it, he's still a good keeper but wc is maybe going a bit extreme.
I'd like Kelly to get a chance very good with the ball at his feet and picks out long range passes very well for a keeper, get away from this tipy tapy between the cb's all the time, done it to good effect yesterday.
13.) 04 Jan 2025 08:55:14
Schmeichel still has one more OF clean sheet than Butland Mystar.
14.) 04 Jan 2025 09:51:35
6 goals in 2 games, you'll not be with with that cc.
11 Oct 2024 19:11:48
Scotland u21s tonight have miller, barron and cameron as the midfield 3. We should be aiming for that for next season or January transfer window.
1.) 11 Oct 2024 19:16:05
hoping that doesn't come back to bite you Livi but like the look of it.
2.) 11 Oct 2024 20:51:23
Shame 1-0 down in the dying minutes.
3.) 11 Oct 2024 21:09:25
Celtic would absolutely smash that midfield 3, Aberdeen would probably dance around them.
I’m all for given young players a chance if they’ve put the work in and are good enough but the reality is we’re not playing champ man.
4.) 11 Oct 2024 21:59:40
Dado 3 good young players with potential. probably not ready to be a 1st team choice together now but who knows in future. most young players need experience alongside them to thrive. They look like they were playing against a 4 in the Belgium midfield so perhaps outnumbered as well.
5.) 11 Oct 2024 22:53:09
U need some experience in there. They would get ripped apart.
6.) 12 Oct 2024 00:32:06
How did it work out.
7.) 12 Oct 2024 04:29:57
Yeah I don’t disagree Angus, I expect and hope all three will have very successful careers, we just couldn’t expect that to be a successful mid field three to take us forward. We need better today whiling balancing building for the future. We’re actually doing that with Barron, we need to see who we can add to bring the best out of him as he can’t do it on his own.
8.) 12 Oct 2024 08:09:43
agree Dado. I thought they looked good on paper as 3 for u21s but not for us at this time as we do need some experience. never watched the game so don t know if any stood out against their Belgian peers.
9.) 12 Oct 2024 11:41:35
Aye you don't win things with kids!
10.) 12 Oct 2024 13:05:20
I do agree we should sign both Miller and Cameron if we can, but don`t see us playing them all together at the moment. Cameron seems more of an attacker than a midfielder, possible No 10 playing off a striker.
I hope we were scouting the Belgian U21s, they are country that produces good talent and there may be bargains to be had if we get in early enough.
24 Aug 2024 17:29:13
Ah we needed that. So much better.
19 Jun 2024 20:53:29
Watching ralston i'm reminded of Ali Dia, the guy graeme souness was duped into signing. Anyone who doesn't know he plays for them would think we've asked someone out the crowd to play and they aren't even there to support Scotland.
1.) 19 Jun 2024 22:28:03
Bit prouder to be a scot tonight.
Ralston is obviously out his depth but he's been asked to do a job with our 2 rb out injured, he gives everything that's all you can ask for, he has my support.
Have to say that stadium was brilliant, not the best to look at, but for atmosphere it was so good, something really old skool about it. one of the best national anthems I've ever heard and I've heard a few. We special mention for people of cologne so welcoming friendly all wanting a Scottish win.
2.) 19 Jun 2024 23:11:59
Souness signed him for Southampton as a striker, not even sure if he played?
3.) 20 Jun 2024 06:40:37
Carrick he came on as a sub and was subbed that's where it came out it was an elaborate hoax.
4.) 20 Jun 2024 12:56:20
Ralston is crap, he doesn`t even play first team football most of the time and if his circumstances were the same at any other club he would be nowhere near a Scotland shirt. If there were only two Scottish right backs in the world, I would pick the other one. He makes O`Donnells performances at the last Euros look great. A dreadful player.
5.) 20 Jun 2024 13:04:23
6.) 20 Jun 2024 13:41:59
Agreed boy blue, if your asked to play who is going to say no? Limited ability but tried, all you can ask . better performance tonight and hopefully a win on Sunday.
14 Mar 2024 19:47:47
Well next seasin the gaffer will have a chance to bring in his own players. To many passengers in the second half. i'd have kept Wright on. Ridvan was awful tonight. Matondo is too wasteful, big silva had lost his cool and it showed in his play. Move on claim 56 and the cup and get ready for next years champions league.
1.) 14 Mar 2024 21:51:46
Thought Yilmaz done well early doors, but seemed to tire quickly, agree about Wright, best game in a while.
03 Jan 2025 11:09:00
Kent i'd not needed his numbers were rotten. Sima showed us last season and cerny this year exactly what we need from our wingers. Kent is thick as and does not have the footballing brain to understand when to release the ball and where to go to change his numbers. Getting rid of him the right thing but the fact he dragged his heels that we got no money shouldn't be forgotten. Kent probably thought he was the best player to pull on the famous jersey. I hope we don't even speak to him again let alone sign him.
04 Dec 2024 11:26:15
Good info mate and as always believable.
12 Nov 2024 09:32:53
Let him see out the year and give him a testimonial. He doesn't have to start games anymore but this crap that people give him is disgraceful. Almost 500 games and this is the way people treat him. They should be ashamed of themselves. that's not supporting its the oposite.
08 Sep 2024 14:25:13
Id have the easdales as owners in a heartbeat. They're self made billionaires and support the club. If they were majority shareholders it would be massive compared to their previous time as minority shareholders. do we see many other billionaires wanting to buy in and keep the identity. They are worth crazy money bring them in.
05 Sep 2024 17:59:17
Dado he wouldnae play for boab main.
16 Jan 2025 06:59:06
The hair transplant went to his head. Moaning all the time. When him stewart and mc fadden go on about attitudes of players it drives me mad. When we first had him he wouldn't run that's why he never played well against them or featured in europe. Second time we had him he couldn't run. The other two one was an everton reserve as he couldn't play in a set position the other retired at 29 due to his attitude. Boyd is an idiot.
31 Dec 2024 14:23:41
Wtf has yilmaz done for anyone to think he should wear the jersey again let alone start. The boy is mince.
28 Dec 2024 19:35:06
Angus how can teams with bigger budgets in england not simply do better than forrest this season.
18 Dec 2024 08:58:57
Ehl that would be my 3 as well. If i could have an extra midfielder i'd take gazza or trevor steven. That first 3 of yours would let everyone who came to the club in no uncertain terms what playing for rangers is all about.
08 Dec 2024 19:55:03
Win both no compromising we are rangers even if the football hasn't lived up to it our expectations mean winning every game.
