I honestly think the board are to blame here, not Clement. The manager can only work with the resources available to him.

For me, sacking yet another manager is not the answer. The majority of supporters screamed for Gio to be sacked. Yes, his style of play wasn't the prettiest, however he won a SC and got us to a European final - the semi final v Leipzig at Ibrox will be remembered for years.

Gio suffered not only an injury crisis but also the failing of the board to properly financialy support him. His sacking cost a fortune in compensation.

Beale then came along as that's what many fans were screaming for and spent a fortune on what can only be called a disaster. Again more needless compensation paid to sack him.

Clement comes in and has to deal with many players walking out the door for nothing and next to no money to replace them all.

Many players we knew were not good enough but wouldn't move due to the ridiculous contracts the board sanctioned ending up with having to pay them off to get rid of them. Again next to no money to replace.

We are 2 weeks into this window and there's still no movement in with a few out. Does anyone honestly think that Clement doesn't want to sign a CH, a RB to replace Tav and the unreliable Sterling, 4-5 experienced players to provide more stability to the team? Of course he wants all of this.

The reason it isn't happening is because the board can't/ won't provide the finance, not because Clement is clueless as a few have suggested.

We need to realise and accept the days of Souness, Smith, and, the wee dutch general buying the very best are long gone.

If there are going to be demonstrations and frustrations at Ibrox v St Johnstone then let's direct it where it should be directed which is the board.

We need to get behind the team and Clement because until such time the club is properly financed, Clement or whoever is brave/ stupid enough to take over is doomed to fail.

Maybe time to take off the blue specs and see the reality of where we are.

SirStruth

1.) 10 Jan 2025 22:30:21
agree sir truth but those with blue specs are claims dot be those who still support the process not those who dont.


2.) 10 Jan 2025 22:33:11
Best post I’ve read in a long long time.


3.) 10 jan 2025 22:36:44
well said mate.


4.) 10 Jan 2025 22:38:36
The fans need to take a look at themselves aswell, turning against Gio was ridiculous. He was left with Sands and King for CBs. He didn't get the backing Beale got and if he did then who knows where we'd be. My biggest gripe though is how 99% of fans had this idea that Beale would be a success. Under Gerrard, we also struggled badly against the 'low block' and Gerrard's trophy haul speaks volumes yet most fans think he was also a success. What was Beale ever going to do that Gerrard didn't? Given that he was apparently the brains of the operation.
Yes. the board must take full responsibility but Clement can't get away with this 'project' nonsense when Gio didn't get the time in the job that Clement has been afforded.
Another point btw, Liam Kelly is not good enough to play for Rangers. He looks well below the level required. No better than Robbie McCrorie imo.


5.) 10 Jan 2025 22:48:11
Once upon a time, supporters supported. Half of them now think their CEO material.

As much as I agree that we should keep PC, my main reason is because I’m tired of changing managers every year and changing nothing else. Any fan wanting rid of PC after Dundee is allowed that view and looking at Dundee for reasoning, we barely looked like scoring. Yes we’re not anywhere near where some of the fans think we are but we’re head, shoulders and a few ladders ahead of Dundee. No excuse, we should have been battering their goal and left without 3 points due to serious luck on their side.

PC needs 6 points, some strong performances and a couple of players back or signing’s in the next week.


6.) 10 Jan 2025 22:55:42
The board are very much to blame but that doesn’t change the fact that Clement isn’t the right man to take us forward. We are weak and have zero bottle or personality in the team and he has to shoulder the blame for that, injuries or not!


7.) 10 Jan 2025 22:56:41
I somewhat agree with that, but on a football note - there are good enough players to be getting results against St. Mirren, Dundee, Dundee Utd, Hibs, Hearts, Aberdeen, Motherwell and the likes we’ve dropped points to and this team look like they have a major lack of enthusiasm, urgency and fight- that all comes from the manager who looks like his team are ill prepared for the matches against the aforementioned teams! We’ve become a team who on occasion can rise to the challenge and the buck for that football matter lies with the manager!


8.) 10 Jan 2025 23:00:03
Agreed . Clement will take all criticism, while the players and board will fly under the radar! Our club has been on its erse for years. We can all try to deflect this, but it's unfortunately a fact. going to take 2-3 years minimum to sort.


9.) 10 Jan 2025 23:04:19
Thank you SirStruth.
Clement is being failed by his Board. Yes he's made mistakes, but ultimately his Board have lied to him and failed him.


10.) 10 Jan 2025 23:05:38
Fantastic post Sir Struth, agree totally.


11.) 10 Jan 2025 23:07:21
The club has been run badly for years. And we can't compete financially with Celtic. But going back to your opening sentences are the resources he has to work with better or worse than the teams he is failing to beat on a regular basis? That is his big problem.


12.) 10 Jan 2025 23:34:04
Everything you say is correct but pc doesn't seem to learn. We've won 3 times in 11 away matches 4 in 16 going to last season yet he sets the team up almost the same every time away from home. What's plan b. Why throw on a winger to play rb when Leon king is on the bench but say he had to be creative if he stays he has to find a way to overcome these away matches at home we are fine in Europe home or away are fine yet he cannot overcome poorer teams in scotland that's on him no1 else.


13.) 11 Jan 2025 00:15:21
This is the best post I’ve seen on here in a long time barring the good transfer intel from a few reliable posters

How can we as a club move forward without first stepping backwards, we can’t move forward if we sack a manager who has implemented a structure and framework that will grow the club well into the future via a young talented squad filled with saleable assets

We have

1 - Reduced our wage bill from 23/ 24 significantly (circa £7mil)
2 - Sold or not renewed contracts for most of our experienced players last season (Lundstram/ Goldson etc)
3 - Used what little money we could raise and invested on players with potential (although do agree the one player with experience bought in Propper is a bombscare)
4 - Given a very very good manager a longer contract to build a squad that will eventually complete with that lot

This season was always a season of rebuild, I did not have expectations of us challenging this year

This is a chance for us to back a manager and sporting director that can genuinely lay the foundations of a very bright sustainable future for us

Get behind him and the club, and stop listening to the stuff spouted by pundits and some former players on the TV

They are paid to be controversial, never thought someone like Chris Boyd would ever have influence over Rangers supporters opinions as I never believed he was intelligent enough to do that.


14.) 11 Jan 2025 00:20:24
The reality of where we are though? I would have understood you completely if it was pre Covid, since then am I the only one that remembers the great unwashed chasing the players out of the car park after a match because they were brutal? The difference there is the board reacted, sacked Lennon and paid to get a decent manager in. We were miles ahead of them then, the only thing that has changed is boardroom decisions and poor recruitment. I agree long gone are the days of us getting laudrup etc.

But Celtic over the years buy young good players and develop them then sell them for millions (jota, edouard, van dijk etc) we sign Davy propers at the age of 30, don’t sell top players when the time is right and when we do we replace them with 26 year old ex wonderkids from the championship that have an injury record longer than a week in jail and then cry out for sympathy when inevitably every year we have a “injury crisis”. Now I’m no business guru but to me player trading is simple, buy cheap while young, develop (which means actually playing not stuck in the B team) they play well then you sell on.


15.) 11 Jan 2025 01:09:03
Very well worded statement. Perfectly sums it up. Clement, Koppen, Stewart and the new chairman all inherited this mess.


16.) 11 Jan 2025 01:14:24
17 million in debt no matter who comes in won’t have money to do anything.


17.) 11 Jan 2025 01:20:54
Okay so I'll start by saying I feel bad for PC as I don't think he was coming to Rangers under these circumstances and was clearly lied to.

That being said not sure you understand how football works, yes the board are at fault for many, many things but it is the MANAGERS job to get the players prepared and ready for our matches not the board (again not defending them)

Blame lies solely with PC for results as this squad is way better than our results have shown.


18.) 11 Jan 2025 01:26:03
Picked oldest player we signed Belfast, What about 20 years old 21/ 22 year olds, but here you are going with the oldest.


19.) 11 Jan 2025 01:32:19
SirStruth : great post this was never going to be a one season rebuild we are where I’d expect us to be second we are well behind them and still ahead of the rest, we all knew we needed defenders but we’re now almost half way through Jan and nothing has happened in transfer front, do you think PC is happy with his squad I doubt it the board need to come out and say why no one has came in, this is just like when Gerrard won the league the following season no investment our squad has been cut back but no real investment to bolster it, I read on here sack the manager but we’ve sacked more managers in the last few years than in our history and nothing has changed so let’s start again and if we don’t win the league in a year or so sack rinse and repeat who would want the job I can’t think of anyone I’d like to see being offered it who would take it.


20.) 11 Jan 2025 04:07:33
I agree with a lot of what OP says.

I’ll answer Sidney’s points

1 still the 2nd highest wage bill in the league by a country mile and should still be good enough to beat these teams.

2 the experienced players were failing as well and it was time for them to move on anyway thi we should have got more money for them. Board fault butmajority of fans wanted rid and agreed with it.

3. Used little money we had don’t like way it’s worded as we still had a healthy amount spent just have to spend it wiser and better Koppen and OC fault.

4 the silliest decision I ever seen or heard of in my life giving the manager a longer contract this year and that is incompetence by the board.


Do I want to sack another manager? No I don’t did I want PC to work yes I did. But he is failing as a manager he should still be capable of beating theses teams plain and simple. 12 points from 33 points is unacceptable when you have the 2nd highest budget in the league. This is the reason he has to go.


21.) 11 Jan 2025 06:48:18
Tho I do agree to a point
Dundee worth a mill at most
Us say over 60 mill
So we should be hammering them either way
We are the second d most expensive team in Scotland
So if a manager can't get a tune out thes guys yeah his fault
We are two inconsistent no flow
No style of play
That's down to the manager
N on paper with the cash been spent on our team compared to others in Scotland
Weshould be winning no excuses
It's a decent post sir struth
But it's a managers job to win
N get the best out players week in and out
To beat teams tacticly
N he obviously can't
We should be battering
M-well
Dundee ext ext, he hasn't been able to pull results consistently for awhile now
It's just not good enough fora rangers manager.


22.) 11 Jan 2025 07:16:59
Gc u say 17 mill in debt we have lost monwy every year since 2012. So lost over 100mill.


23.) 11 Jan 2025 08:02:02
Thanks Stortrooper appreciate your time and effort there

1 - Are we not still in 2nd position in the league with the 2nd highest salary budget

2 - What was the total accumulated savings in yearly wages over remaining contract lengths for those experienced players regardless sale prices

The overriding goal was to lower the wage bill, not raise funds for new players

3 - We spent the 2nd most in our league on players in the summer, we are in 2nd place in the league, above every other team we had a larger budget than

4 - That’s a personal opinion that I disagree with as I have my own thoughts and opinions

There needs to be a sense of reality in where e are, yea we are way behind them, but still further in front of every other team in the league

That’s where I thought we would be at the start of the year, agree 2nd is never good enough but again I will reiterate in the financial position we were in, we had to take a step back to go forward.


24.) 11 Jan 2025 08:05:29
Great post. Echoes my thoughts.

it’s difficult to step back and appreciate the dire finances and restrictions that Clement is operating under.

I know I’m in the minority, but we must persevere, give him and Koppen time. Always darkest before dawn!


25.) 11 Jan 2025 08:15:23
Great posts Sir Struth and Sydney. Some of us live in the real world while others spout the same about sacking managers and transfers with money we don’t have, but do nothing by way of funding the club ie going to games and purchasing merchandise/ shares etc. The happy clappers and mediocrity acceptors are hurting just as much as the rest of the greatest fans in the world.


26.) 11 Jan 2025 08:16:18
Is he failing Strom?
I suppose if you can only see the points deficit or away form, that's fair but Sir Struth and a lot of us on here are trying to see the big picture. Proper was twente captain so when they didn't get their first target, it wasn't an unreasonable purchase. Apart from Cortes, the vast majority of the injuries are guys pre PC, so in terms of managing that he's done well, and most, not all, but most of the dropped points away can be put down to some glaring individual errors enhanced by severe injuries at the back. There's a lot of fans/ budding CEO's that are purely reactive to results, beat celtic comfortably and win big games in Europe and we're world beaters, draw against an inform Scottish team and were dreadful. That is the best post I've read in months Sir Struth and it's great to see so many fans agreeing with it.


27.) 11 Jan 2025 08:42:16
Sirstruth and Sydney - 2 good posts guys - when teams are down EVERYONE puts boot in - even supposedly our own aka Mr Boyd? (would love to see him dealing with remit that PC has had - its easy to sit on his butt and spout what the pandering masses want to hear! ) - Try and support the process or we wil be in our washing machine soon for the rinse and repeat cycle YET AGAIN - as it has been mentioned on here by many our failings have come from them on top for many a year THEY ARE TO BLAME FOR OUR EFFIN MESS - not just the guy who is carrying the can in front of media at moment - support the team and put the burning torches and pitchforks away! No one said this would be an easy fix.


28.) 11 Jan 2025 09:21:53
OP speak as if no one is criticising the board. They have been criticised for years by fans for the mess. We all know this. Doesn't change whether PC is doing well or not. He's not spent an insignificant amount of money either. He's spent close to £20m which is probably more than all the other teams apart from Celtic put together and it's those teams he's struggling with and still with a wagebill comparible with Celtics. So Yes they took over a mess but don't give us no manager could put a team together with what he had to be able to win games away.


29.) 11 Jan 2025 09:29:29
Whilst Clement must shoulder a big portion of blame for tactics, he can't legislate for the ridiculous amount of goals we've lost to errors of players. Since the start of the season our goalkeeping has been brutal. Butland has been culpable for making basic errors against Celtic in league and cup (a follow on from last season) and Kelly was shocking against both Hibs and Dundee. Add in errors by Propper, Jefte and the usual suspects on a regular basis doesn't help.

Everyone was singing the praises of Barron and he'll be a future Rangers captain but, to be frank, he wasn't good enough to hold down a place against Aberdeen and it showed in his performances of late. Others don't look interested or willing to adapt to the rigours of playing in our league. Does Clement believe he has the level of players that can play various formations if required?

It's looking increasing likely that Clement will be released but it doesn't help his cause when so-called senior players are laughing behind his back when the team are losing (Dessers, Dowell, Danilo all did that against Dundee) .


30.) 11 Jan 2025 09:32:05
Phil has failed in the first objective that he talked about when he arrived.
Synergy between the team and supporters.
I really don’t know the way forward from this point.


31.) 11 Jan 2025 09:34:03
Tremendous post Sirstruth, I agree 100% with all your observations.


32.) 11 Jan 2025 09:39:19
Sydney, good replies and good debate as rangers fans. we ain’t all going to agree mate.

We are 2nd with 2nd highest budget and 2nd highest spend but we should be doing a hell of a lot better away from home and I think another manager would have a better record away from home with that squad.


33.) 11 Jan 2025 09:54:43
agree Sydney, 2nd highest wage bill gets us 2nd position so we are exactly where we should be then so what is all the fuss about ?.


34.) 11 Jan 2025 10:18:31
Well said Sirstruth, Sydney and a few others. Sensible and realistic perspective of what is going on and what needs to happen now.

I don’t think any of us have truly understood the depths of the problems our club have faced over the last decade, we just accepted it would be difficult for a few years but by now we should be back to where we were in the 90’s. The reality check is, we are a decade away from even getting close to being the dominant force we once were and there are a lot variables and challenges to overcome to achieve that. Mismanagement and incompetence at board levels have lead us here but let’s hope to god Thornton, PS etc are the right people to make the painful decisions now to get our house in order to ensure a brighter future and that should not include sacking PC.

I’ve sat on the fence with PC but I am more behind him now than ever when I see some of the abuse he gets on here and elsewhere. He has been shafted and expected to work miracles whilst covering jobs that shouldn’t sit with the manager of a club. Has he made mistakes, got tactics wrong, tinkered with line ups, said the wrong thing at times, of course he has and I have been as frustrated as anyone at times but he is still here and their are glimpses of improvement but he needs the backing of the board and more importantly the fans to see through this difficult period.

I really don’t think we’ll see many incomings this window, regardless of budget versus other teams, there is a cloud hanging over our club and that must be affecting players, coaching teams, the manager etc. finishing second, achieving knock out stage in Europe and winning a cup were most likely the goals for this season and right now all three are achievable. Yes that’s a long way off what we’ve all grown up believing Rangers is and the success this great club has achieved but it’s the reality of where we are right now. We have years of difficulty ahead but to not go and support the team, not keep putting money into the club will inevitably lead us to 2012 and we won’t come back from it this time.


35.) 11 Jan 2025 10:23:14
Sir Struth, Excellent post and well worded commentary on the situation. So called supporters in the media like Boyd more interested in using situation for their own personal gain, no shame.


36.) 11 Jan 2025 10:47:32
Agree with most of what you have posted SirStruth you do make some very good points, my problem with the current manager is quite simple

1. Has the 2nd best squad in the league only has 3 wins from 11 away from home the same as Motherwell, Hibs, Aberdeen, Dundee, Ross County and St Mirren simply not good enough there is no excuse.

2. We don't have any money to bring in players fair enough we will need to start promoting some of the youth players but he doesn't do that he still brings on the likes of Dowell and Matondo, bottom line is he should be getting far more out of this squad than he does.

3. The board have wasted millions of pounds and rightly should be called to account however let's not forget if it was not for the board members and their soft loans we could be in the hands of someone like Ashley or worse.

4. No idea where we go from here to be honest but carrying on burying our head in the sand will not get us anywhere either, I remember the 80's when we were finishing 4th and 5th in the league playing in an empty stadium when the crowds averaged 18,000 if we don't do something and soon that is where we will be headed.


37.) 11 Jan 2025 11:41:20
We’re all hurting Stormtrooper1, when u get up at yond o clock in the morning hoping for a turn in fortunes every weekend to be dissappointed over and over again

Somethings got to give, we’ve got to rebuild to move forward and at some in the next couple of years, prepare a squad strong enough to dominate again

We finally have a coach and director of football who see the benefit in developing players

Let’s give them a chance, and get behind them

I hope we all get behind Clement who given time and a decent budget will take us back to the top of the league.


38.) 11 Jan 2025 12:50:39
SirStruth well said that man ?????????.


39.) 11 Jan 2025 12:57:06
Great posts SirStruth and SydneyGer. I totally agree and firmly believe that, given time, Clement and Koppen will sort us out.

Sadly, our academy isn’t working properly at present and so there are very few players coming through of the required standard, hence why they don’t get chances.
Nsiala did ok the other night but he was raw, a fairly weak header of the ball and positionally naive. This is why Clement hasn’t played him until now. Time and coaching will improve the lad but he demonstrates that PC is right not to chuck the kids in too soon. I really believe Koppen will sort this out at academy level and I think John2561 has previously told us there are big changes coming in the academy.

If we can just show some patience and allow time for some very fundamental changes to be made and blossom, I have a lot of hope. The future is bright. The future is Clement (ine) (a shade of orange) .


40.) 11 Jan 2025 13:15:23
What player has improved in Clement's tenure?, we’ve had the odd player that has played well for 4 or 5 matches. koppen has recruited a couple of players that look promising. If Clement was the manager we need at this moment in time then how is our away form so bad for so long it doesn’t make sense.

We might be second in the league but to be this far back at this stage is simply not good enough, Clement is a fraud and some simply cannot believe their eyes and the evidence in front of them.


41.) 11 Jan 2025 13:19:26
Good post irvbear.


Sydney I agree and you are correct something has to give which is usually the manager.

I have tried to see the bigger picture but in my head and heart I don’t believe we can win the league with this man in charge.


 

 

24 Jul 2024 22:06:50
Four lads reporting Cantwell has asked to leave the club.

SirStruth

1.) 24 Jul 2024 22:50:48
Yes, the manager referred to it twice just after the game.


2.) 24 Jul 2024 22:50:57
Clement came out with it himself. Todd will be with the B team until he leaves the club.


3.) 24 Jul 2024 22:54:46
Seen that mate.


4.) 24 Jul 2024 22:58:50
Think big Phil confirmed it after match.


5.) 24 Jul 2024 23:02:06
It came straight from Clements mouth Struth on RTV.


6.) 24 Jul 2024 23:03:01
Clement has confirmed it.


7.) 24 Jul 2024 23:03:06
Wanting to leave and finding someone wanting to pay the fee that the Board will want are two different things. He is a decent quality, better than most of our current players, but he clearly has personal problems and we are seeing the same impetuous character now as Norwich had to deal with.

Why would anyone want to spend money on him!


8.) 24 Jul 2024 23:07:57
Mistake imo the most talented player we have, there's simply been a personality clash there from day one.


9.) 24 Jul 2024 23:46:15
Now is this because Clement has said to cantwell he is just a squad player or is it because he doesn’t buy into Clement’s ideas and system.


10.) 24 Jul 2024 23:49:16
Called it when he joined from Norwich, but said at the time I hoped I was wrong. I've seen this movie before with him. Same issues that saw him leave Carrow Road and Bournemouth then decline their option.

Waste of talent. His mentality will never let him fulfil his potential.


11.) 24 Jul 2024 23:51:16
Talent without hard work, he's also been shocking this season.


12.) 25 Jul 2024 01:08:08
This putting players to b team is idiotic who is making these decisions all we are doing is slashing transfer price as clubs know we are desperate to get rid of them.

Our club is in a total shambles.
I'm a clement fan but if it's true he told players not needed last season and it's him dropping players to b team when we don't even have replacements then he's going down in my estimation.


13.) 25 Jul 2024 01:11:32
Here we go I think your totally right but if clement can't man manage one of our better players it says more about him.

This style of management dropping guys to b team might be OK if your. A team with plenty of funds to make changes but not if your trying to maximise every asset

GOT horrible feeling clement has already had enough and he will jump ship and he might do damage before he leaves.

?.


14.) 25 Jul 2024 01:44:08
The board LIED to Clement, just to get him in the door. Cantwell is only one of our better players when he isn't thinking about Instagram and tiktok. He's got a flair about him, but he's hit or miss. Personally I would have liked to see him. with better quality players around him but of he isn't playing for the badge, I'm not interested. No player is or ever will be bigger than the club. He'll be replaced and we move on.


15.) 25 Jul 2024 02:58:33
Rfc we can't have an unhappy player that doesn't want yo be at our club with the first team. I think the b team till he leaves is tge best option. Cantwell was in the papers and social media more from his constant back and forth with various people including chris Sutton than he was for his performances last season. He simply didn't perform and causes constant headaches with the social media rubbish.


16.) 25 Jul 2024 04:11:10
Topsykrets, can you tell me the lies the board told Clement?


17.) 25 Jul 2024 04:56:25
RFC what you on about? Cantwell
Has previous for this which says more about him than the manager. Cantwell is inconsistent a walking booking mostly every match. He is another who thought it would be easy up here and he has shat the bed. Putting players like that in b team is correct.


18.) 25 Jul 2024 05:16:01
Spot on storm, why would any manager want an unhappy player around his squad in pre season, plus it does seem Cantwell is being a pain in the arse, lad is a very talented player but it looks to me he's got too much nonsense up there.


19.) 25 Jul 2024 06:41:10
This is 100% the fault of our worryingly increasingly toxic so called “supporters”
We need to banish the knuckle dragging element from social media. They are damaging our great club
Under Gerrard we had a tremendous relationship with our players, look at the likes of Defoe etc who’ve taken the club to there heart
Now we have young players like Cantwell Silva etc leaving because of the fans, not the boss.
I understand the frustration but the fans are about to send the club straight back to the Ian black and Kevin Kyle era if they don’t wind there neck in.


20.) 25 Jul 2024 06:53:40
Where have all these new posters came from ?. Cantwell at the end of the cup final was never going to play for us again. His attitude stinks. All those thinking the gaffer was lied to where do you get that. He told players at toward the end of the season they weren't wanted. They are still here. That tells me he knew exactly that he needed to clear out players. Even if we had millions to spend the ffp rules mean we couldn't go into the season adding more players to the wage bill so we need to shift them. I hate this time of year on here as the rules of the game and experience of previous close seasons are out the window and crap is spouted about us not signing people and the club has no money, we are falling to bits, the manager is leaving and they've never seen it so bad. Time to get a grip and just wait and see. If we qualify for the CL i guarantee these new concerned posters will disappear. I wonder why that is?

He thinks he’s David beckaham with none a the talent and hard work.


22.) 25 Jul 2024 07:10:28
Baldy get your point here on the fans being toxic.
The thing is it's just because of pure frustration of watching us being so piss poor for year on year.
Under Gerrard it was better for the fans as they could see a direction a style of play and a system.
Right now we have none of this.
I'm just hopefully we can get some players in very soon or we are serious bother.


23.) 25 Jul 2024 07:33:59
Baldy that's 100% nonsense. Is it our fans fault he was exactly the same before and has said he will never change for anyone. Unfortunately there's loads of players like him that love the attention but don't fulfil their potential because of their attitude. Likes of ravel morrison, alli, lindgard etc. But then again maybe rangers fans are to blame for them too. Seriously, how many times did PC take him off early because his attitude was wrong on the pitch even though fans adored him to begin with.


24.) 25 Jul 2024 07:39:40
Mystar whether he was lied to or misled I'm not sure but Clement said he was told one thing when he came and then another later regarding rebuilding job.


25.) 25 Jul 2024 08:02:05
Baldy:

Our toxic hand are right good if they can influence a player at 2 clubs before he joins us! ?

Cantwell had the same issues at both Norwich and Bournemouth before us and was removed from first team duties at Norwich too.

At some point he might realise that the one constant in all his problems is him and screw the nut. But he's 26 now, not a kid anymore, so hugely unlikely.

There are many legitimate concerns around our fanbase and being overly critical of players, but I'm afraid that doesn't apply to Cantwell. As someone who follows Norwich I can tell you he was a banger long before he turned up at Ibrox. As I say, this is the same outcome he's had at EVERY club he's ever played for.


26.) 25 Jul 2024 08:59:22
Had a nightmare last night and Lampard was in it trying to sign Jimmy Bullard and Shaun Duffy.


27.) 25 Jul 2024 09:08:13
It’s not the fans fault, the board have allowed a spiv to run our club, when in fact he ruined it.
Blaming fans is lazy, we pump millions into rangers, we support everywhere we go, but when we see it being run so poorly, we rightly moan.


28.) 25 Jul 2024 09:56:16
Just a thought. Clement came in under Bisgrove and Wilsons plans for future. Since Clement came in Koppen has joined and he has decided differently, more long term. So aye what Clement was told when he arrived may be different to current situation, doesn't mean anyone was lied to.


29.) 25 Jul 2024 10:23:29
Kaiser, i feel Clement was talking about his players wages taking a drop, and it was uefa changes.


30.) 25 Jul 2024 13:27:26
Lol@belhaven having any herbal remedies to cure that bud??.


 

 

08 Jul 2023 17:20:42
Looking forward to the new season with the new signings, however, is there any word on outgoings? Our squad is huge and Beale stated he wanted the squad trimmed and we must be paying stupid money on all these wages.

SirStruth

1.) 08 Jul 2023 18:44:55
As far back as I can remember you can guarantee it we will sell players around about the last day, then we have no time to buy in replacements.


2.) 08 Jul 2023 18:53:31
Loan offer for Kamara has been knocked back by Rangers. Besiktas now willing to pay £3m for him according to Sky Sports.


3.) 08 Jul 2023 18:58:40
Thankfully we’ve got our main targets in before we sell anyone Lithium.


4.) 08 Jul 2023 19:13:38
We don't need replacements lithium there already in the door. Kamara as good as gone. let's see who else follows him.


5.) 08 Jul 2023 19:31:30
Still think we need a no nonsense centre back.


6.) 08 Jul 2023 19:35:23
We need another CB and arguably another ST.


7.) 08 Jul 2023 19:36:02
Any money made from sales would be extra for Beale to work with. we have our players either signed or lined up.


8.) 08 Jul 2023 20:02:41
Players Out
McGregor
Arfield
Helander
Kent
Morelos
Davis (probably won’t play again)

Players In
Dowell
Sterling
Butland
Lammers
Sima
Dessers

The squad is the same size. Kamara is leaving, Wright and McLaughlin will follow.
So we’ll have 3 less. It’s only the beginning of July.
Can see Hagi and Davies being sold as well.


9.) 08 Jul 2023 20:20:00
I didn't think Kamara would fetch £3m, very good news if true and if so grab it .


10.) 08 Jul 2023 20:25:41
Think we have enough fowards at the moment.


11.) 08 Jul 2023 21:16:05
Just danilo and panzo then we are smokin.


12.) 08 Jul 2023 21:20:28
Lithium we're looking like having plenty of replacements already and if teams don't approach us to buy till the last what can u do?


13.) 08 Jul 2023 21:30:24
A think we will get 3 more in cicuentes a lcb panzo and another fwd danilo but somebody says truaro bit a don't think it's the latter.


14.) 08 Jul 2023 21:31:10
Kamara worth 5m 3.5 upfront make up the rest on games.


15.) 08 Jul 2023 21:45:34
Shame as we got offered 8 for kamara last season. Great business from the previous regime.


16.) 08 Jul 2023 21:50:36
Kamara has been dross for over a year now. 3 million is the top price on his form.


17.) 08 Jul 2023 22:34:34
Would take england under 21 captain on loan at centre half. Wishful thinkin.


18.) 08 Jul 2023 23:05:19
TJ we didn’t get offered 8 million for him last season.


19.) 08 Jul 2023 23:31:01
Kamara should be £5m and 20% profit on future sale he’s £20m player all day.


20.) 08 Jul 2023 23:50:21
Lithium

Maja continuing look no-goer. Looking to go EPL.


21.) 08 Jul 2023 23:59:48
StevieG2, don’t want to devalue our players, but £20m player all day for Kamara I can’t agree with. Struggled to make our team last season and will be the same season to come. He was a brilliant buy, was a mainstay. Up until his 2 besties lest last year, however since then his form and value has only decreased. To suggest he is a £20m player, does that mean the players that are playing ahead of him have a higher sale price than that?


22.) 09 Jul 2023 00:00:12
@Paul86 - I take it you’re talking about that you CB from Leeds? Rangers apparently bid for him a few weeks ago but it was kicked out. He looks like a real prospect. A proper enforcer.

Bell is valued at 25 million, 2 million for twelve month loan plus wages. Let’s move on.


28.) 09 Jul 2023 10:16:38
Aribo how u doing mate, my value on kamara is based on his skillset and his euro and old firm performances over his time here. Gio didn’t fancy him then played him as a 10 which he isn’t he’s a ball winning mf not a tough tackler but very intelligent in anticipating where to be, his ball retention is one of the best I’ve seen in Scottish football and I’m 37. Very rarely loses the ball. His performances for Finland against top sides such as Spain were outstanding. He reminds me of watching a Spanish mf actually in his overall game. I’ve no doubt that git Ben a run in his preferred position he’d be back to the old player. I do however agree we should now move him on same as we did with the others and start a new cycle. We tend to under value and undersell at rangers while Celtic and championship clubs down south over value and over sell. We need to address this
What would u say I’d kamara valuation mate?


29.) 09 Jul 2023 13:23:57
Stevie apparently we want 4.7ackage for kamara plus a sell on.


30.) 09 Jul 2023 14:07:17
We will probably get 5-6 mill tops for Kamara, a french side did make a higher bid last season, but moved onto another target, and they cooled interest in glen.


31.) 09 Jul 2023 15:16:20
Well John that’s not to wide of the mark then, seems about fair to me for the player your getting. Even at 15% still a good deal for all.
He won’t be in turkey long. 2 seasons and off to Spain or Italy maybe epl and that’s when we would get our true value of the player but for now we need to move him on and that price is fair.


32.) 09 Jul 2023 18:00:03
Kamara is a £20m player? jeez get a grip so we want rid of players of that value and chase players of 10% of the value, that's a wee daft head that needs a wobble .


33.) 09 Jul 2023 19:24:47
Mac under stevie g kamara showed the player he is. Injury lack of game time under gio and out of favour under Beale has saw his value go down. He’s a cracking player anyone can’t see that doesn’t know much about football.
Not all big money players need to be flair players. He’s outstanding at what he does.


34.) 09 Jul 2023 19:28:58
Lithium we don’t need to replace the players we sell that why it’s called trimming the team.


 

 

29 Mar 2023 15:13:07
Michael Beale hinting that Alan Mcgregor could stay at the club beyond this season. Surely this has to be in a coaching position - this jobs for the boys has to stop - we need to move forward.

SirStruth

1.) 29 Mar 2023 15:57:01
Would be a great coach a lot of ex players make good managers and coaches no harm seeing if it works out for 6months a year.


2.) 29 Mar 2023 16:16:21
Don't think it's a bad thing to have him around helping progress the young keepers and fighting for 2nd or 3rd choice keeper next year.

Would only really make sense if he is paid as a back up keeper/ coach and not a no1 goalie in his prime lol.


3.) 29 Mar 2023 16:35:52
SirStruth - He said nothing of the sort. Listen to the interview he did on Rangers TV instead of the nonsense spin in the rags.


4.) 29 Mar 2023 17:06:27
Correct Peter.

Not sure how he makes a great coach. Does not do great with ball at feet does not leave his line.

Mb he could learn to coach that in future.


5.) 29 Mar 2023 17:13:23
C’mon John you’re better than that . you don’t need to tick every box as a player to make a good coach. Lots of good coaches couldn’t trap a bag of cement. Personally I think Greegs could be a good coach but I’m not convinced he should be competing for the Gloves.


6.) 29 Mar 2023 17:18:09
John you heard anything about how kenty n beale talks went over the break?


7.) 29 Mar 2023 17:59:43
What Beale said that he had been tremendous for him and complimented him on notching up 500 appearances. Then he said "and he`s not finished yet " which is right, we have the rest of the season to go. The lazy media have jumped on this and made up a story about him getting another years contract.


8.) 29 Mar 2023 18:06:16
How someone plays and coaches is completely different. Great players don’t always make great coaches etc….


9.) 29 Mar 2023 18:40:49
Ano storm that’s correct but no harm in seeing how he does over 6/ 12months could be with the youth and still be 2/ 3 choice if needed that’s just my view.


10.) 29 Mar 2023 18:45:51
Scotty I am better than that yes however I don’t see mcgregor being a coach. We r trying to progress not give all our ex players deals to pay family bills

Intr my understanding they have not spoken yet, both only returned yet.


11.) 29 Mar 2023 19:41:18
To be a successful coach you need to have something between your ears that gives you the empathy to understand people and motivate them to change something about themselves.

Like Barry Ferguson I don’t see anything in McGregor that suggest he has that talent ~ but what do I know?‍♂️

He will be scooped up as a pundit as soon as he is available and make a decent living.


12.) 29 Mar 2023 20:48:40
Mcgregor will retire and go away and chill. He might get involved eventually at a club rather than Rangers,


13.) 29 Mar 2023 22:12:18
not sure scotty, what abilities does mcgregor have that makes you believe he is a good coach?


14.) 29 Mar 2023 23:01:54
I don't believe Mcgregor will become involved in being a pundit.


15.) 29 Mar 2023 23:36:15
Cheers john.


16.) 29 Mar 2023 23:36:30
Gees. He’s apparently well respected by coaches and players, that’s a very good start, has bags of experience at our club and in Europe and internationally, he’s worked alongside some world class keepers at our club and very well respected GK coaches. Again though that doesn’t mean he would be a good coach but he ticks a lot of boxes for me. He knows the club inside out and for me would be valuable to our new no1 to lean on.


17.) 30 Mar 2023 00:36:28
Can't see Mcgregor doing coaching meant to be bad with arthritis.


18.) 30 Mar 2023 01:23:22
Firstly how someone plays has nothing to do with how they coach or manage if it did every coach would be Ronaldo klinsman laudrup top players but that's just not the case.

Secondly I don't. see how McGregor going from our obvious no.1 to a great back up no.2 is a bad thing why do people want him hounded out when the current thought is he is better than McLaughlin and mccrorie ? if we move on too many players it will stop us getting real quality i'd rather 2 or 3 quality players that 6 to 7 projects and gambles.


19.) 30 Mar 2023 01:24:07
No way McGregor becomes a pundit he's too laid back and sounds like Andy Murray a bit.


20.) 30 Mar 2023 01:29:12
I don’t think McGregor has the right mentality to be a coach. Great keeper and great attitude but never constructive and always howling at his teammates.


21.) 30 Mar 2023 01:54:11
Ac21 you've obviously never been a keeper them as that's exactly what you have to do as a keeper.


22.) 30 Mar 2023 08:38:09
I would not be replacing Colin Stewart as goalkeeping coach, I used to do a night a week at his goalkeeping school when I was younger and the guy is a top quality coach. He's been building his coaching career since he was still playing senior football. Has experience with all levels of keeper.


23.) 30 Mar 2023 13:36:26
1. How do we know McGregor even wants to coach?
2. Do we even have a vacancy for a goalkeeping coach?
3. Does McGregor have any coaching qualifications?
4. Do we really think we should hire him for 6 months to see how he gets on? Absurd!
5. A pundit? Can't see it at all.
Allan McGregor might sign on for another year as a backup keeper and if so there is nothing much wrong with that. If not (and I don't think he will) he'll simply retire. By the way, I've known the guy since he was 13 and I love him to bits, he is a Rangers legend and will leave as such.


24.) 30 Mar 2023 18:50:56
Dk at his age he shouldn't need ti make a decent living. he shoukd have a good few mill in the bank ti live comfortably for rest of his days.


25.) 31 Mar 2023 06:48:19
The goalkeeping coach that's at the club will be the one advising the club if McGregor has what it takes or not it's amazing people who have no idea about keepers making daft comments about keepers ability

Very few keepers come from Thier line. nowadays at crosses and set pieces that thinking is dated.

And McGregor is fine with ball at his feet he is not accurate as some others but that is not the main attributes for keepers that are good with ball at feet one is assessing danger properly and two is not someone who will panic both of these McGregor has I argued this point at start of season people didn't listen when I was warning of McLaughlin's frailty and his lack of ability with ball at feet many saying he was better than McGregor and they quickly got proved wrong. ?

Some so called rangers supporters on here seem to have it out forcgregor on here.

Anyone know what the situation is with Sands? I've been hearing and reading stuff that says apparently we're obliged to buy him at the end of his loan - surely not.

SirStruth

1.) 24 Jan 2023 15:52:06
Sir struth, my understanding was we have first option to buy sands.


2.) 24 Jan 2023 16:08:16
Difference between first option and obligation lad.


3.) 24 Jan 2023 16:08:37
If we were obliged to buy then it would t be a loan.


4.) 24 Jan 2023 16:10:10
If we have first option to buy, then that option should be NO!


5.) 24 Jan 2023 16:15:18
It’s an option not obligation. I like Sands and I think he will have a good career outwith the SPL, he could be one that comes back to bite us as he’s a young lad with a lot of key attributes.


6.) 24 Jan 2023 16:15:23
Correct John, we have first option for a fixed fee to buy him.


7.) 24 Jan 2023 16:27:43
Did someone on here not say Sands would be Man City bound?


8.) 24 Jan 2023 16:36:46
Btw you can have obligations in Loan contract hope it’s not tht, He’s gash.


9.) 24 Jan 2023 16:44:27
Thanks for the clarification folks.


10.) 24 Jan 2023 17:13:20
Baxter yes I did. As that’s what city group felt.

He’s not shown that will happen. His game again not suited to Scotland

As I’ve always said would not pay more than two million. He’s a gio type player not a Beale player.
I’m sure he will leave in the summer.


11.) 24 Jan 2023 17:21:06
Sands isn't worthy of a permanent deal I'm afraid to say.


12.) 24 Jan 2023 17:31:55
Please get him away he is absolutely awful.


13.) 24 Jan 2023 17:55:58
Won't be anywhere close to city. Not being cheeky but my opinion is he's mid table spfl. if he played for another spfl side I don't think we would look twice at him.


14.) 24 Jan 2023 18:05:28
Man City?! PMSL! He'd be lucky to get a job in their gift shop.


15.) 24 Jan 2023 18:39:27
Where did anyone say Sands was Man City bound? as a player?


16.) 24 Jan 2023 19:06:27
Kelso what was said was Man City wanted to look at him in Europe, hence reason Gio bought him here.

That was me that said it, no time did I say he was definitely going to play for Manchester City

I’m sure one or two know it’s one off the ways they manipulate ffp,


17.) 24 Jan 2023 19:39:46
Big Ben your comments are brutal mate. Lucky to get a job in their gift shop?! Get a grip.


18.) 24 Jan 2023 19:51:29
To say Sands is 'absolutley awful' is ridiculous. He's still young, been played out of position most of the time and maybe not suited to our game. He's not awful at all, just not what we need.


19.) 24 Jan 2023 20:07:09
Sorry Scotty, too harsh for you petal?!


20.) 24 Jan 2023 20:58:35
Gotta to agree iv saw absolutely nothing in sands to suggest he is capable of becoming a decent player, no pace, no skill, no vision just don't see what he's got.


21.) 24 Jan 2023 20:45:54
Petal haha behave urself Ben. Is there a rangers player you actually like?


22.) 24 Jan 2023 21:15:44
Sands would suit seria A he's technically good and great potential to develope but too soft for British football.


23.) 24 Jan 2023 21:16:59
Of course there is Scotty! That's a daft question. Do you need me to name them?


24.) 24 Jan 2023 23:07:58

25.) 24 Jan 2023 23:38:30
Don't you worry about me Bazbear! If anybody on here isn't happy with my post, I couldn't give a toss. Some on here find it very difficult and take things personal, if you dare post something they don't agree with. Tough!
Life's too short to worry what others think mate. ?
Appreciate the compliment! ?.


26.) 24 Jan 2023 23:48:47
The abuse Sands gets is shocking, the guy came here as a midfielder and because of injury he played mostly as a CB even in the Champions League and he’s being judged in that position, he’s certainly not had a run in the team as a midfielder, saying all that if the price that’s been quoted on here is true £4 mill I’d say no but to say he’s awful and couldn’t get a job in a club shop is stupid.


27.) 25 Jan 2023 07:05:43
Sands is a decent player has been played out of position most of his time here. But I wouldn’t spend £4m of our budget on him. £1m-£1.5m maybe.


28.) 25 Jan 2023 07:33:52
Twacoos
I don't necessarily agree with Ben's views on sands, I think he's played out of position and still young, but valuation seems a bit high for what I've seen and there's definitely a mistake in him, that said a run at cdm might make all the difference. Regardless of my views I can still laugh my head of at the gift shop at man City line which is clearly humour rather than an insult,


29.) 25 Jan 2023 07:39:03
Ben I wasn’t unhappy with your post lol It’s just your patter is honking. Ted Bundy, gift shops, 10p mix ups. Sands pumped your Mrs?


30.) 25 Jan 2023 08:47:54
??? Wee Scotty boy says my patter is honking then he goes and brings a family member into it by asking If Sands pumped my Mrs?! I'm old school and believe you should never bring someone's wife or kids into an argument or you cross the line. If that's all you've got, you're on your arse wee man! ???.


31.) 25 Jan 2023 09:40:52
Sands is awful get him gone.


32.) 25 Jan 2023 11:02:55
There is no termination clause in the deal, he’s here till summer.


33.) 25 Jan 2023 13:28:00

34.) 25 Jan 2023 14:14:17
Sands is woeful.


35.) 25 Jan 2023 14:44:58
Regardless of what it was Scott, you do not disrespect anyone by bringing their wife, partner, kids etc into the chat, arguement etc. Once you do that, you've lost any credibility and you're on your arse.
If it annoys you so much, then will it help If I say Sands is good enough to work in Man City's gift shop? ?
There, is that better?! ?.

So, it's a friendly today, not even a ball kicked yet, and here we go again with the complaints about the line up and how RM doesn't know what he's doing. I don't think Asgaard or Rothwell were ever going to start today as they are just in the door. Let the manager do what he feels is best. If we don't get a result today, then I guarantee there will be people on here wanting RM gone.

SirStruth

1.) 06 Jul 2025 16:20:45
Sir Struth I think that is fans everywhere. they somehow seem to think they know how to select a team and set it up despite probably never having done that. good news re the manager is I think that the board will be stronger and ignore that fan opinion and do what is best for the club.


 

 

03 Jul 2025 19:11:39
I see there's already criticism regards the appointment of Mike Willianson as 1st team coach and Salvatore Bibbo as goal keeping coach. Some argue they would have kept McGregor as goal keeping coach despite him having proven nothing as a coach. What do people want exactly? Are we wanting experienced coaches appointed or continue to look backwards to appointing people who's a "rangers man". In the last few weeks, we've been taken over and now in the most financially stable position for a long time, we've a new manager, we're signing players and still some fans aren't happy.

I actually think that Colin Stewart was unlucky to be discarded along with Clements backroom staff as he had been our goalkeeping coach for years before Clement . McGregor had no real qualifications to be a coach apart from him being a Rangers legend so its no surprise that we have gone for someone better suited to the role.

Muscat why I banned myself from that years ago, would even bother looking know, fans with very little knowledge on the game constantly post crap.

But they fans lose management jobs.

Why can't you comment Asathor? you're only a username on a rumours forum, nobody actually knows who anyone is.

Just like I can't comment on other forms of cutlery, they'd know who I was?.

Just watched the interview with Andrew Cavenagh and Paraag Marathe on Rangers TV. Thought they spoke very well and obviously have good business acumen and are here to make us successful again, but what I see are complaints from total melts that they aren't wearing club ties. Craig Whyte and Charles Green wore club ties, so wearing one is not exactly an indication of greatness.

Ignore these people mate, they aren't worth a second thought.


2.) 23 Jun 2025 19:43:41
SirStruth, they had a Rangers badge on their lapels at the
EGM and the interview with RTV.

People will have a moan for the sake of moaning, seen it quite a lot over the last few weeks.


4.) 23 Jun 2025 22:05:16
Maybe wrong but I don't think those multi coloured ties were part of our history till relatively recently Murray onwards maybe?
I stand corrected if wrong, but maybe if they were bowler hats and brown brogues it would be more traditionaln????.

Hearing a deal between Rangers and AEK Athens for Dessers is close - £5 million. If true then I wish the big man all the best. Never injured, and despite the abuse he received from our own fans, his attitude remained first class.

SirStruth

1.) 13 Jun 2025 16:58:59
Some of the treatment from our fans was appalling in my opinion, hope the big man goes on an plays out his skin.


2.) 13 Jun 2025 17:13:48
GDJ

Think it's also time to get away from this whole thing about how fans treated Dessers let's be honest he's celebrated scoring goals with 50 plus thousand fans
Maybe in forums some fans have went OTT but let's be honest it's a very small minority he will leave with good memories scoring some great goals and important goals and played in some excellent matches whilst he's been here
He's tried his best and club have decided to sell he's happy by looks it if it goes through
So all in all both parties happy let's wish him well and look forward to the future ?.


3.) 13 Jun 2025 18:10:57
Thestig it's not a small minority tho.


4.) 13 Jun 2025 18:58:42
Definitely not a small minority his treatment has been absolutely disgusting. That mobs players get treated better from our fans.


5.) 13 Jun 2025 19:35:30
Good luck to Dessers if he leaves for Athens, hope he makes his fortune, agree with other comments he always tried his best and was always available and yes he did score a number of goals but it might be the goals he didn't score and the games we didn't win which of course wasn't all his fault which a lot of fans will remember.


6.) 13 Jun 2025 19:38:35
Guys everyone I know that attends IBrox has said they will miss him and the general consensus is he's a decent player nice big guy but also frustrates at times
But never any malice towards him and folk yes get on his back when he misses chances but what players doesn't get it in the neck when they missed chances
I'm sure Ally also got it in the neck back in the day and he's a club legend.
He's came out and played his football with mostly a smile on his face
He leaves I'm sure he has many happy memories to take with him and to be honest I think he won over the majority of fans so it is the minority who still give him stick and I'm sure he will be happy he converted so many Rangers fans
In my opinion guys.


7.) 13 Jun 2025 20:33:17
He's not away yet will believe it when I see it.


8.) 13 Jun 2025 20:35:03
Maybe Martin comes in and likes Dessers attitude work ethics and thinks he can fit him into his system and can give him 25+ goals a season along with others chipping in, maybe better value than what we would have left of any fee recieved.


9.) 13 Jun 2025 21:12:06
GJD what treatment was that? When he played badly fans are right to voice or write on here what they thought same as any other player got when playing badly, dessers in just my opinion when he was off it he was absolutely horrendous. But when he played well he got praised. As I said just my opinion when other players played poorly that was it they were poor but dessers is either horrendous or like the last 10 odd games at end of season he played really well.

Really do not like that away shirt but the home one is a belter.


5.) 06 Jun 2025 16:57:37
Rangers were all sold out home shorts for wee man so had to get them sports direct. Got discount on top and socks tho.


6.) 06 Jun 2025 18:11:37
Rusty i know you want to get the wee man his kit but sports direct c'mon would not give that fat ponce a disease if i had one, he is a total parasite.


7.) 06 Jun 2025 18:57:26
Cant really avoid the fat ponce, unless you want to shop at poundland and he likely owns that too.

Agree 100% huey. The sniping, slagging and general toxicity amongst some is embarrassing. I'm looking forward to the season and remain optimistic we'll have a good season and yet 45 mins into a friendly yesterday, the team are being booed off the park.

Some fans just can't help themselves tho. Is it a wonder the last title we won was when there were no fans in the stadium who got on their backs constantly.
