Barton isn't working out. If he isn't prepared to give up his contract the club has to follow standard proceedures. Warning, final warning then bye bye. It also gives his agent time to find a new club and a bit of face saving for Joey. Sad but no point in flogging a dead horse.

barton would have no problem finding a new club! I suspect that his previous club with take him back with open arms and their supporters certainly would. The one thing that I am told about Barton by folks that know him is that he is a winner. Perhaps the problem is not solely related to him.

Certainly, it would appear that non performers, (who just happen to be Rangers supporters), don't like to be told that they are crap!
While I would prefer to see Rossiter in the team than Barton, I only want winners. No point in playing pretty football if you end up middle of a pretty mediocre league!


2.) 19 Sep 2016 17:58:48
IMO unlikely that he will play for us again and we are following due process and procedure as required. Personally I dislike his childless antics and based on his form to date was not worthy of place in the first 11. Would love him to prove me wrong!


3.) 19 Sep 2016 19:21:49
Hes certainly not playing like a winner. a winner is a guy in the mould of souness, keane, viera, gattuso and sorry but the only thing bartons got in common with those guys is he shares the same occupation.


4.) 19 Sep 2016 20:50:05
Barton isn't alone in performing poorly so far and to be honest I feel his comments were correct. It's laughable that some of the players used what happened last season without him.

I think some of the problem at the club is that too many players are very soft and can't take the criticism they are getting. Derek Johnstone nailed it tonight saying that some players can't handle playing for the club with the expectations and scrutiny. Now is the time we will see what these guys and the manager are made of.


5.) 19 Sep 2016 22:47:15
I agree all the players are playing poorly but at least there trying to knuckle down and improve, barton on the other hand is just constantly on twitter/ radio telling any1 who"ll listen how good he is and what he's going to do to certain players. the true greats just do it. actions speak louder than words.

Gers back on top great for Scottish football. Lennon back a disaster for Scottish football.

How many wingers are we going to sign? They'll have to queue to get a game though I supppose we will have to trust Warbs has a plan.

Templeton will be back in at week or two as well.

Looks like we have lost out again. This time to Leeds. Not looking too cleverer esp when it is a position we did need to fill. Just have hope we have a plan B though not holding my breath.

What? Aren't we top of the league by 5 points? Strengthen the team for next year's return to the SPL by all means, but I think the squad Warburton has will comfortably win the league and may even have a good Scottish Cup run. Haven't we learnt the lesson of splashing out big bucks for players who often don't produce. Youn Mackay is a great example of our own young players who cost nothing and we also have Walsh, Murdoch and Hardie to call on as well.

On a slightly different tack listening to Sportscence with Cosgrove etc. Quite saddened these men of the people still can't stop their Anti-Gers digs. Astonished SC, when talking about our new Acting Chairman mentioned building bridges, he immediately jumped on the Rangers sack cloths and ashes stuff. Rangers have been ripped apart by spivs, banks, football authorities and fellow clubs and. still CS is looking for Rangers to apologise. I suppose it will always be " no one likes us and we don't care". Only in Scotland.

use the OFF button when appropriate - they are trash not worth listening to anyway so don't waste you time with them,


2.) 07 Mar 2015 16:57:33
I think that's exactly his point. You are still blaming everybody else for what happened when in fact everything that happened was the fault of Rangers and Rangers alone.

It might have been nice if something about the creditors had been said at the presser yesterday. That might have gone some way to mending bridges.


3.) 07 Mar 2015 17:12:09
Abhabh any problems we have had were down to craig whyte so maybe you should direct your problem at him not the supporter


4.) 07 Mar 2015 17:36:49
Edward123. I think you need to read the original post and then my response. I'm not sure you're getting the point.

Also the problems started long before Craig Whyte appeared.


5.) 07 Mar 2015 18:03:19
Abhaba our problens before whyte were under control .


6.) 07 Mar 2015 18:21:45
Why would you even care what Cosgrove thinks of us. His opinion is irrelevant and he is nothing more than a joke figure. Actually laugh when he tries to come across as some footballing expert. Judging by his appearance he has never played football in this life and can't run the length of himself


7.) 07 Mar 2015 18:32:30
Its a BBC thing Richard Gordon n Tom English done nothing but try to pick holes in Paul Murray interview and Dave King, nothing positive n these clown have been dining out on our troubles for nearly 4 years, is that not enough for them? No they still fancy a few kicks. I'd treat them with contempt when we get back to the top.


8.) 07 Mar 2015 20:18:53
Edward123. Utter nonsense. If everything was under control why did Murray sell the club to Whyte for £1?


9.) 07 Mar 2015 23:23:06
Abhabh ask the bank.they would let you know if they were honest enough.


10.) 08 Mar 2015 00:06:24
I don't need to ask the bank edward123. The answer is public knowledge. SDM could not afford to pay the bank debts, Whyte bought the club and the debt for £1, Rangers failed to qualify for the group stages of the champs league and subsequently the Europa league depriving the club of much needed income which lead to administration and ultimately liquidation.

Of course this is a very high level view of things, but I think it fits with the original post and who is to blame for the whole fiasco.


11.) 08 Mar 2015 00:51:07
Abhabh craig whte got the club for a pound on the condition he paid the 18 million debt to the bank, so though he got the club for a nicker, it cost him 18 million pound and one pence, but we won't split hairs over a paltry 18 million .

{Ed001's Note - actually that is splitting hairs, because it was only that he took over the debt, not that he paid it back personally. The club would have been surety and so responsible for paying the debt in actuality, not him.}


12.) 08 Mar 2015 10:23:31
Edward please read my post again. I said he bought the club and debts for £1.


13.) 08 Mar 2015 16:35:04
Ed in resonce to my post, yes the club would have been responsible for paying it back, but my reply was more to the point we had the debt under control, and the debt was going down, and not up, thus david murray only sold due to presure from the bank, the banks demands were in fear of us loosing the big tax case, a case that found in our favour twice.

{Ed001's Note - but your comment never said anything of the sort and was completely factually incorrect. Why try and argue the point? You were wrong move on.}


14.) 08 Mar 2015 17:39:51
Ed we will just have to agree to disagree on this one mate, if is the smallest word in the dictionary with the biggest meaning, if the bank, if david murray if craig whyte if charlieboy if ashley, if hmrc had announced the outcome of the case quicker if if if if .

{Ed001's Note - disagree? Give it a rest and be a man, you were wrong, you said he paid £18m and £1 for Rangers, he didn't. Just grow up and admit your error like an adult. Can't be doing with people who haven't the sense to see when they got it wrong! You were wrong end of story. There is no if, other than if only you were a grown up you would admit your mistake instead of trying to cover it up.}


15.) 08 Mar 2015 20:12:11
,, so my logic is it was part of the contract between dm and cw, thus craig shyte paid the money to bsnk.say to me give it a rest, have you seen the contract between david murrsy and craig ehyte, no, meither hsve i, but if the 18 million never needed to be paid back pront then whyte would not have psid it back pront I know he used the money from tickitus as the club never had the money to pay it, plus tickitux loaned whyte the money, not the club, thsts why tickitus hsve had him in a courtroom and not the club, so though we will need to wait until the court case to find out the truth, if whyte had not paid it back he would not hsve got near our club

{Ed001's Note - this is just gibberish, stop wittering on. Just accept you were wrong for heaven's sake. You should be used to it by now. Your logic is non-existent.}

Slightly different line but when it is crucial for Scottish football we have a strong fully functioning Rangers I am disgusted that our media is now awash with "don't sign for Rangers" rubbish every time a decent young player is mentioned. The reality is that for a young player there could never have been a more exciting time to sign for the Gers but sadly our narrow minded parochial media are unlikely to change their sad anti-Gers positions any time soon . So its back to "Nobody likes us . we don't care". Though I would suggest we care just enough to stop giving the Record, National, Herald etc any of our cash. With enthusiasm they helped bring us down and they are still at it.

Sorry I was trying a bit of irony using the word "harsh". The SFA decision was pathetic and it is quite clear they have no intention of help Rangers in any shape or despite the fact that Scottish is clearly going down the tubes without Rangers in the top league. A quick look at crowds on TV demonstrates this. The SFA have stood back and allowed a founding member club to be torn apart without lifting a finger. They are a disgrace.

Hi all . just noted our old friend Stan C is having a go at Rangers again. Why the media give this no mark work defeats me. If any of us had behaved as he has done over the years we would be unemployed and shunned by all. What a lucky chap (feel free to use another word) he is.

I am giving Rangers 1st proxy with my shares but I am so worn down with all of this I'll clutch at almost anything so if these young guys can give us a lift on the park I welcome their arrival. I would suggest however the chance of this late infusion working is very slim while "I don't want to be here Kenny" remains in charge. If we can't afford to bring someone else in give Jukebox a chance.

Only registered to join you all for a moan. Over 60 years following the Gers. Today I must have seen the most hopeless Gers team in my time. Put aside the power struggle. Ally and his pals have had the 2nd largest playing budget in Scotland for 3 years and this is the result. Today should have been a message to everyone "we are back" but what we got or never got was one shot on goal. not one. Ally and his management team have no excuses. I can't stand the "fans deserve more" anymore they really don't care about the fans. There has been more than enough funds available to ensure we had the best young players in Scotland and a few old pros today giving us a performance to be proud off. I would like to think they feel some shame but I doubt it. They will continue to blame everyone but themselves.
