Any of the guys in the know here hearing of an unrest in the dressing room? Not towards the club or Phil but the fan base? I'm hearing goldson, tav and cantwell as want to leave because of it plus a few others. If it's true I think it's bang out of order these over payed over privilege men think 2nd is acceptable. I do get it though are fans can be brutal and I have said for years our negativity does cost us but these donkeys thinking 3 major trophy's in 13 years is ok need there head checked.

Okey dokey.

Celtic fans are playing a blinder this year with all the scare mongering and Rangers sites trawling, it's like a full time job / obsession for them
Absolutely warped in the head.
3.) 22 Jul 2024 19:27:25
None of those players have been here 13 years.
4.) 22 Jul 2024 19:27:38
They are going because Clement has told them their time is up, they were happy to take any praise so if they can't handle the criticism then the sooner they are gone the better.
5.) 22 Jul 2024 19:32:20
I’ve no doubt that those players taking heat are pissed off with it but if tav and goldson were good enough they would be cracking on…they now aren’t and we’ll Cantwell is cantwell he has the ability but if your going to be as prominent online and not back up what your posting then you are going to get it stinking from any fanbase.

Big club, big expectations. deal with it or move along.
Millions would love to be in their football boots.
7.) 22 Jul 2024 20:14:49
I heard they wanted the dressing room to become a separate entity, but this was refused, so they all got angry and refused to go home. Or something. Desperate Declan.

People are going to blame the manager and want him sacked and to be fair our track record away from home is awful but serious question does anybody believe he asks these individual players to go out and make mistakes every single week? I'm actually fed up with it we make mistakes every single week.
1.) 05 Jan 2025 14:03:56
Managers not to blame here. Didn’t tinker, started with strongest 11, was constantly telling them to keep up the pace and get going forward. This one’s on the players.
2.) 05 Jan 2025 14:04:23
He waited too long to make changes Hagi was very poor today and Diomande is the most frustrating player I have ever seen he’s cost us today.
3.) 05 Jan 2025 14:11:29
The manager was a centre half. he has coached our, albeit makeshift, defence to play like this. We do not pick men up at set pieces properly. Bajrami on the first goal watched hibs player run past him for the umpteenth time this season. a decent coach identifies this and tells the player about these issues. Same defensive mistakes over and over away from home.
4.) 05 Jan 2025 14:26:16
Mfo so you’re saying that the manager is telling them to make the mistakes such as giving a penalty away, the goal keeper making a pathetic attempt to come for the ball and 5 different players allowing a ball to bounce about our box?
5.) 05 Jan 2025 16:05:04
Of course he is not coaching them to deliberately make mistakes, but whatever he is coaching them, like what spaces to get into, what runners to track or not track is clearly not working. His job is to see this and and coach what does work. I do not claim to be a great coach, but I played enough football in the past to see blatant laziness and lack of football intelligence when I see it from players who earn thousands of pounds a week. The players were guilty as much as the manager this season. Unfortunately this day and age the buck mostly stops with the manager.
6.) 05 Jan 2025 17:19:03
so MFO did the teams you play for still make mistakes and lose silly goals despite your managers I imagine continually telling your players what to do. the principle is the same and all the money means is that it is being done at a higher level. the game is played at a greater pace so Bajrahmi switches off for a split second and the opposition are 5 yards away. yes he has done it a couple of times now; actually it seems just after Ally McCoist pointed it out in a match is when it seems to have started. or is it that nobody noticed until he pointed it out.
7.) 05 Jan 2025 19:06:21
Angus, of course players make mistakes. We all do. But it looks very much that we aren't learning from them. To me that's on the coaching staff. Defend them all you like, that's your prerogative. I am seeing a manager blame everything going apart from taking the responsibility himself. Hampden, injuries, lack of funds, sports science, poor refereeing. last season blaming the dundee game being moved. i agree these things have an affect, but this man is using them as excuses everytime we have a bad result. Hopefully we see a difference on Thursday night.

I posted a rumour I heard in the summer how a lot of the players where downing tools because of the fan base and the way they where being treated I know they were also stopped bonuses ect as it was changed to a system of winning things and a lot where not happy and then on top of that pc told a lot they could leave. Anyway my point is for that statement I was shot down on here by a lot of you and called a " Tim " even though I've posted here for the best part of 2 year original under samoforange I've not shared much else since then for being shot down and called a Tim ect. I think the rumour I had heard was true and could be the reason for the domestic downfall maybe their playing well in Europe to try get in the shop window?
1.) 30 Dec 2024 13:20:52
It must have hit you pretty hard Sam. I also got called a tim a few times over my heartfelt posts about Morelos. It took me at least 5 seconds to make a full recovery and get over it. I hope that you can feel the love again and nobody resorts back to the terrible name calling. Peace, love and sausage rolls.
2.) 30 Dec 2024 13:40:52
I wouldn`t call you a tim, if that`s a rumour you have heard and you believe it then that`s your opinion.
Don`t believe a word of it though because although some of them are playing badly I don`t believe they have downed tools.
I don`t believe that they aren`t playing for the fans, I don`t believe that Clement told some of them that he didn`t want them and as for the bonuses, I have no idea, but clubs have to honour contracts they can`t just change things without agreement.
3.) 30 Dec 2024 14:07:42
I have managed to get my recovery time down to around. 0.00000001 seconds! I've being called things like a "bombastic balloon" (still my favourite), someone who can't handle my drink (?), someone who knows nothing blah, blah, blah! Who cares what others on here think about you?
However, the day I was called a tim, and by one of my favourite posters (you know who you are), cut deep, very deep. Nah, I'm only joking, it meant nada!
Trust me, this place is a nursery school compared to other sites. Our Eds, who do an absolute amazing job, do not, and will not, allow a situation to arise where there is clear signs of bullying etc.
Try posting on FF, RM, Rangers fans Facebook sites, X, or other forums, and you will soon find out how tame this place is!
I remember the time I came on here under my old username and told the forum that Jim Macallister was going to be our new kit man long before it was announced, only to be called a BS'r. Honestly, some of the replies were hilarious and you would have thought I committed a crime. Infact, one poster, under his old username, let me have it with both barrels (no names as I don't want to make a bombastic balloon out of him ?), and was incredulous because he was adamant Jimmy Bell's son was getting the job. However, because I knew I was right, I didn't care one iota.
I got it the other day for calling BS on something which was BS, but it never, and never will, stop me posting. The only things that will stop me posting are death (mine), or getting a full time ban from the Eds (it might be close ??), and that's it.
4.) 30 Dec 2024 14:37:22
Players down tools because of fan base that’s just utter tripe.
5.) 30 dec 2024 14:38:26
thats nowt to what i was called re morelos cheers, but i can take anything nowadays i think, sam players are abused at every club if they don't perform or keep falling down, esp on very high wages.
6.) 30 Dec 2024 14:40:45
Samoforange, I don’t wish to offend but your article is absolute nonsense.
Winners forget about money when the whistle blows, they don’t stand there thinking am I in the shop window this game or is this the game where I don’t try.
7.) 30 dec 2024 16:02:08
no sima, some do, there's some think differently
finding the right type is key, you can have no doubt guys like morelos kent bajrami and a few others have they're minds eksewhere, cektic will have a couple too
not all olayers have the mindset you think they have, banging the badge is easy, morelos deliberately got himself sent off because he wasnt centre if attention, we need to find real men to play for rangers.
31 Jul 2024 22:55:08
What's everyone's thoughts going into the season then?
Personally after the last few days and the players we could potentially be signing i'm a fair bit more confident than I was a few weeks ago. The depth might not be there but I'm starting to like the way the first 11 is lining up all Be it baring 2 new cbs. Hopefully sima and a few extra midfielders and a striker come in and we get some of the dead wood on its way out. Has any one heard of potential right backs if tav does go? Really think we could end up struggling due to sterling picking up knocks now and again and from what I've seen of Devine he's probably not the standard required.
I think when it comes to the old firm the real struggle as it has been in recent times will be the battle of midfield as that's where I think we will come up short if they keep oreilly and hatate but if we can counteract that in some way I think they are there for the taking.
Any way I hope come may we are the ones lifting the trophy and not that mob. both cups would be a bonus as I've never seen a treble in person in my life time think the last time we won a treble I had just started school!
1.) 01 Aug 2024 07:04:09
Optimist. One game shirt if the league in 22/ 23 and two games short last season. So small margins and I trust PC to have improved us over preseason.
2.) 01 Aug 2024 07:06:41
Still way short, lacking about three or four for first team, and let’s see how the new guys perform, another centre half, midfielder or two and striker needed.
3.) 01 Aug 2024 07:39:40
Definitely getting there need a few more players but with the right additions we can do well - CL maybe too soon as Kiev look decent and we have still to gel - think we will be better this year in the old firm games - we’ve a top manager and he is building his team - will just take a wee bit time and patience ??????.
4.) 01 Aug 2024 07:46:17
Our squad is worse now than it was this time last season and we were nowhere near good enough last season.
So yeah, confidence isn't high.
5.) 01 Aug 2024 07:54:13
I’m optimistic but if we drop pints against hearts it’ll be a meltdown on here ?.
6.) 01 Aug 2024 08:33:16
We still need players to leave for us to progress.
7.) 01 Aug 2024 09:45:52
I think we will ge pleasantly surprised. Done some good business getting a couple of experienced guys in. I'm thinking Souttar beside Proper. Balagoun is 35 although still very pacy. If someone worked with Dessers to make him pull the trigger a bit quicker I think he would score a barrow load.
8.) 01 Aug 2024 10:11:58
Get defoe up to teach dessers how to hit right away ?Defoe helped alfie when he was here ? If dessers improves on the easier chances he misses, he'd be the top goalscorer in the league ?.
9.) 01 Aug 2024 11:34:59
Orange, in fifties and old enough to see 76&78 trebles and makes me hungrier for more. In both years we stank in Europe and feel now is our time.
17 Jan 2025 11:32:28
Have a soft spot for Walsall and he's an absolute weapon of a striker will definitely go on to have a good career.
17 Jan 2025 11:29:36
Ramsdale over butland
Sugarawa rb no debate
Bednerak as we have no centre half's
Bellis
Kyle walker peters is leaps and bounds ahead of jefte
Raskin
Aribo
Fernandez
Cerny
Hamaza
Sulamana
That's the team right there if you'd pick the best of both sides.
08 Jan 2025 17:05:40
Teddy blue he had a decent record in Italy considering his minutes to contribution ratio in a team that where lucky to average 2 shots a game and that’s not even on target.
05 Jan 2025 13:32:44
He’s a ball playing centre half was solid last season for Ipswich and strong in the air he’s around 6,4 as well so adds some much needed height to the squad. I’d take him on a loan with option gives you 6 months to see if he’s up to par.
01 Jan 2025 13:35:43
People have this weird notion that just because their Scottish their going to be brilliant and play for the jersey. Remember the warburton era we had what was it 7/ 8 Scot in the team and they were all terrible. Scottish players for the most part won’t win you fk all because unfortunately 80% of the good ones are all ready at better teams or out of our price range.
16 Jan 2025 10:53:12
Katic was good in the air. He couldn't turn, he couldn't run, he couldn't pass and his defending was ok.
There's a reason he plays mid table Swiss football the equivalent of hibs in that league as well. Just because you're good at something doesn't mean you can be certain about how good someone else is. Ally McCoist signed Kevin Kyle and sandaza.
15 Jan 2025 22:33:58
Think we are trying to play Danilo as a cf I think if we swapped him and igamane around you'd get a lethal top two Danilo has better movement in my opinion movement that would allow igamane better chances just my take on it.
14 Jan 2025 07:45:43
Sydney not even close on highest missed chances in Europe. Sure he's got a better hit rate than the messiah shankland.
12 Jan 2025 18:58:31
Tt you're sounding a bit like an entitled snob. There young guys there the life and soul of ibrox most weeks without them there's no atmosphere. You like to mention all their bad but none of their good like raising money for charity building relationships with other fan bases in Sweden and France ect and making ibrox electric not to mention the displays. I can only assume your one of the sit down for 90 minutes against Celtic in silence and then go home and complain on facebook fans.
12 Jan 2025 18:52:22
Subway shuts at 6 on a Sunday and usually a tight squeeze. I generally stay to the end but if my wee boys with me I leave early as it can all become crammed ect.
