Is the reports true about souttar not being fancied by our manager or is he just out injured again?
1.) 10 Nov 2023 12:16:22
Soutter and Davies need replaced. To think the emoji man once said Soutter could be the next Richard Gough.
2.) 10 Nov 2023 12:16:33
Muscle injury.
3.) 10 Nov 2023 12:54:11
John Soutter is an outstanding central defender, on his day probably the best we have. Unfortunately, the injuries which have plagued his career have left him struggling to be fully fit and I don't see that changing anytime soon. Not signing his brother when we had the chance frankly is almost dereliction of duty from our previous manager. I would bring in Harry and allow John to either play a bit part on a 'pay-as-you-play' contract or move him on.
4.) 10 Nov 2023 13:01:59
Hopefully he's back for the 30th November.
5.) 10 Nov 2023 13:19:36
Soutter is our best CB imo. Like a few others though, is nowhere near fit enough to compete in such a busy schedule over the course of a season.
6.) 10 Nov 2023 13:24:39
Super swally your talking as if you're on the swally because i can assure you it certainly wasn't me comparing big john souttar to Richard Gough ?big goughie is the best centre half i've seen at ibrox bar none ?.
{Ed001's Note - I was thinking he meant Coldo?}
7.) 10 Nov 2023 13:34:12
Souttar has had some really good games for us although he is prone to the odd lack of concentration but to be fair all our centre backs are . We are screaming out to have Scots in the squad and he is one of the best we could have. I only hope he gets fit for the Aris game where he will be needed to play instead of Goldson . Playing right centre back will probably help him as that is his more natural side.
8.) 10 Nov 2023 13:54:54
I thought he meant coops ??♂️
Souttar makes too many mistakes that lead to goals for a centre back to be a first pick.
He’s inconsistent, for his height loses too much in the air. That causes us to lose a high number of goals. If u look at all our goals conceded in the games he plays u will see a pattern.
He’s a good football player, good coming out from the back but he’s never going to be good enough to be a first pick for us.
9.) 10 Nov 2023 14:24:32
I actually don’t rate Soutter as a starter.
He’s a decent player and very good with the ball, but unfortunately always seems to have a bad mistake in him that tends to lead to a goal.
Unlike most on here I actually rate Davies.
10.) 10 Nov 2023 14:25:50
Personally think Souttar is fine for SPL, and is even prone to odd mistake ( as is Goldson) but is often caught out in Europe.
I think PC will address our defence very soon.
11.) 10 Nov 2023 14:43:19
Super who is the emoji man? I don’t think coops has ever said that but could be wrong.
12.) 10 Nov 2023 14:44:28
Guys I don’t think he is our best CH, I have said we need a new back 4 but will settle for 3 in the next 2 windows.
13.) 10 Nov 2023 15:01:50
Souttar isn’t our best centre half I’d argue he isn’t even in the top 3. He always seemed to play a part in the goals we conceded when he was playing. He’s not good enough to consistently play across a season not even including his injury issues. He’d be a solid backup but that’s it.
14.) 10 Nov 2023 15:49:54
Storm has heavily backed souttar in the the past but you know what it's about opinions.
I myself was not a big souttar fan I think all our centre backs are way below the standard of some of our previous defenders weather it be .
Gough butcher McLaren amoruso bougherra boumsong Weir cuellar
Clement has given them all a clean sheet and souttar not done much wrong under Clement the way manager has turned lundstrum around and is getting a tune out of guys like wright
Then I'm more than happy to give everyone the benefit of doubt and back this manager he certainly seems to know what he's doing unlike beale.
15.) 10 Nov 2023 16:15:23
Bee82 I thought you were describing Goldson there for a moment.
16.) 10 Nov 2023 17:04:13
You seen what happened to our defence when Goldson wasn’t there last season, fell apart.
17.) 10 nov 2023 17:18:38
his brother may well be at ibrox sooner than later.
18.) 10 Nov 2023 17:31:38
Ha ha the emoji man…. wonder who that could be?
19.) 10 Nov 2023 17:56:35
Talking about central defenders, I thought Davies was outstanding last night.
20.) 10 Nov 2023 17:57:56
Don’t know about Souter being the next Richard Gough but he will be back playing shortly, perhaps alongside his young brother at Ibrox in January.
21.) 10 Nov 2023 18:04:18
I’m the emojo man?????.
22.) 10 Nov 2023 18:38:34
Gofor you spout some utter barry white on here pal. You make a hell of a lot up. No idea why.
Explain heavily backed? That’s never happened. I didn’t want him signed at the start because he was injuries prone and I gave him credit for a couple of good games. If giving someone credit is heavily backing him then I am guilty ?. Right at this time and this season I would have Goldson, Davies and balogun in front of him.
Also people can change their minds if they want to. gofor have you never changed your mind on anything?
I have slightly changed my mind on wright after the last few games I still think we need a lot better but he has done a job. This is not me heavily backing him tho.
23.) 10 Nov 2023 18:39:12
I did as well fool monty.
24.) 10 Nov 2023 18:49:05
I don't think Souter is our best defender, he is guilty of switching off which has directly cost us a few goals.
25.) 10 Nov 2023 20:09:43
Souttar has done nothing since he arrived to suggest that he is our best centre half and his injury record to date suggests that he will never stay fit for long enough to develop as he could do to be of the quality we need. I am not sure about Davies and it could be that under Clement he will prove to be a good acquisition. Goldson is still our best centre back but he does not come close to either Butcher or nGough, or for me, Amorusso.
For too long we have been signing players that have been signing players that are evidently injury prone, presumably on the assumption that they will suddenly become fully fit with us but the days of the 'magic sponge' have long since gone.
It will be interesting to see if any of those players will be able to attain the fitness levels required by Clement and maintain them.
Godfrey is not an option, if he isn't signed by Tottenham of Newcastle it will be because of injury issues and in such circumstances it would make no sense for us to sign him.
26.) 10 Nov 2023 20:19:45
Going on recent performances under PC there is an argument that even though many of us didn’t want him back that Balogun next to Goldson is out strongest pairing at the back.
27.) 10 Nov 2023 20:48:04
I think we need a tall commanding centre half to partner Goldson or 2 new altogether.
We need an aerial threat at set pieces at both ends.
I think we should look to Eastern Europe for someone for this position.
I actually loved Katic but it never worked out but someone in that mould but better for me.
A ball player and a solid unit is my preference in defence.
28.) 10 nov 2023 21:07:26
mirrors mirrors everywhere, and can't see any of them lol.
29.) 10 Nov 2023 21:51:15
Really can't see us signing harry souttar.
30.) 10 Nov 2023 21:54:03
It’s about time you looked in one of those mirrors TT ?.
31.) 10 Nov 2023 22:04:59
Souttar is our best defender and will be back in the side. The one consistent thing on here are people who don't like our team, players and even football in general.
32.) 11 Nov 2023 10:06:35
In my opinion John Soutter is the best cb we have, in my opinion by a distance, should be played at rcb.
33.) 11 Nov 2023 11:16:01
Souttar cost us most goals at the start of the season he ain’t the best we have I have 3 others before him.
34.) 11 Nov 2023 11:25:02
And by the looks of it only thing I've got wrong this season is cifuentes.
From what I seen in the MLs we should still be able to get something from him .
Wonder 8f he's been carrying an injury seems to be only one not had a chance under Clement yet.
35.) 11 Nov 2023 11:34:15
Storm best in my eyes by a distance.
36.) 11 Nov 2023 11:37:25
Gofor the only thing you got wrong, sorry man you get things wrong daily mate.
37.) 11 Nov 2023 15:37:56
Goldson for me is still the best CB we have, it’s proven when he’s out the team, however, I think Goldson will be away next season and Souttar will play and show what he’s capable of playing on his favoured side.
38.) 11 Nov 2023 16:27:31
Souttar is far from our best lol!
He gets far too touch tight and caught on the turn. He is also often unaware of his surroundings. Bull in a China shop. Good kid and works hard. Like when he runs forward but he often does it at the wrong times.
27 Aug 2023 13:14:50
Hagi is away to Spain confirmed by club.
1.) 27 Aug 2023 13:38:03
Seen that storm, we r going about business well, allegedly no loan fee but they r picking up all his salary
I’d be surprised if we see him in rangers jersey again
I wish him the very best going forward.
2.) 27 Aug 2023 14:16:24
Likewise John27,i wish ianis hagi all the very best over in spain and i doubt very much we'll see hagi in a rangers shirt again ?.
3.) 27 Aug 2023 14:30:10
One of the most talented players at the club John, poor decision to let him go. No wonder he asked to play every game watching what's in front of him.
4.) 27 Aug 2023 14:51:12
Good luck to the boy.
5.) 27 Aug 2023 15:01:05
Hagi will be a great success in Spain, suit his lack of pace to a tee.
I’d expect us to get a lot more money next summer than we would have now.
Great deal to maximise profits.
6.) 27 Aug 2023 15:01:49
Corp, sorry don’t agree, we r trying to progress.
7.) 27 Aug 2023 15:10:40
Awful deal in my opinion. He’s a talented player and even if Beale doesn’t fancy him it shouldn’t have been difficult to sell him for at least what we paid for him.
8.) 27 Aug 2023 15:31:24
I’d rather a loan. Than a sale
That’s what the club obviously thinks also
And I also suggest hagi coming back and staying for the long term.
9.) 27 Aug 2023 16:13:10
What’s in font a him? The likes a cantwell he’s no a patch on him and a rate hagi.
10.) 27 Aug 2023 16:31:17
Cantwell is hands down better than hagi, he has never been a 1st team starter and Beale doesn’t want him he needed to go.
Do you think anyone else will go other than kamara and Davies john?
11.) 27 Aug 2023 17:25:49
Personally always enjoyed watching Hagi train and play. A very nice young man also. Wish him all the best.
12.) 27 Aug 2023 17:45:21
Too slow can't/ won't tackle and many shots ending up in the car park, other than that he's gifted .
13.) 27 Aug 2023 19:20:42
A season on loan will benefit both Hagi and Rangers.
20 Aug 2023 17:13:18
John is the left winger that you have heard about Demari gray? As you said we would be happy and I wouldn’t be as happy like you said ??.
1.) 20 Aug 2023 17:43:30
Why wouldn't you be happy with Demari Gray?
2.) 20 Aug 2023 17:44:24
What happens to Lawrence and Matondo if we sign another LW? We just signed two new left-wingers last season and they are on long contracts, and good wages. Jo sign of Matondo and Lawrence being moved on either. Neither player has done much for over a year and Matondo seems adamant he’s staying to fight for the position.
Would we not be better off with a CB? A central midfielder would be nice too because I’m convinced if anything happens to Raskin or Cifuentes it could end our season.
3.) 20 Aug 2023 17:57:28
Lawrence is not a winger.
4.) 20 Aug 2023 17:58:04
Lawrence was out with an injury and just srltartinf to get mins now. Feel he is a very important player going forward.
5.) 20 aug 2023 18:06:40
i would be very surprised if gray considered scottish football but you never know, i'm led to believe a ch and another forward player.
6.) 20 Aug 2023 18:08:58
Jfm where did I say I wouldn’t be happy in my post? Please read it again very slowly.
7.) 20 Aug 2023 18:14:39
You typed you said we would be happy and I wouldn't be as happy like you said.
You've kinda lost me.
8.) 20 Aug 2023 18:17:05
Denarai Gray never hapoening to us he's talking to european teams and a saudi team - he's in £159k a week.
9.) 20 Aug 2023 18:23:42
John said I would be very happy and it’s obviously not hard to lose you. So please answer where did I say I would be happy?
10.) 20 Aug 2023 18:24:55
Big tel what are you on about he isn’t on anywhere that most pages say he is 25k a week one other days 42k a week ? where you getting 159k a week? Do you just make it up?
11.) 20 Aug 2023 18:26:48
Gray earns nothing like that Bigtel us or Fulham, Tom that is who Beale wants and had a meeting with him on Friday afternoon.
12.) 20 Aug 2023 18:28:54
Where do you actually get info telling you that's what he earns Bigtel?
13.) 20 Aug 2023 18:31:03
Storm you're losing yourself I said you said you wouldn't be so happy.
That is what you said, check your post.
Where did I say you said you would be happy.
14.) 20 Aug 2023 18:33:48
Demarai gray not coming to us -.
15.) 20 Aug 2023 18:40:11
I hold my hands up its my mistake Gray has neen on £59 k a week average including apps i typed it wrong but he is not coming to us as far as i hear / re John 27 i know that McInnes was not interviewed for our job / but i am led to believe that he is now on our radar if this project doesn't work out.
16.) 20 Aug 2023 18:44:57
McInnes will definitely get the job now that Rodgers has recommended him.
17.) 20 Aug 2023 18:45:12
Doesn't even earn close to that Bigtel.
18.) 20 Aug 2023 19:10:06
With Matondo we open the gates and let him run down South, maybe Preston or Blackpool or similar. if he can stop in time .
19.) 20 Aug 2023 19:11:12
I wouldn't want McInnes anywhere near the management job. Anyway Beale will get it right. Just need a bit more patience.
20.) 20 Aug 2023 19:15:23
Jfm that's how I'm reading it too.
??.
21.) 20 Aug 2023 19:17:22
Can the player you mentioned earn close to that in Saudi, Beale? I think a team would pay him £100k+/ week out there no problem. It’s not just the money either the wether and lifestyle must be significantly better in Saudi.
22.) 20 Aug 2023 19:18:08
If you like slow boring football McInnes is your man.
23.) 20 Aug 2023 19:23:44
I didn’t say wouldn’t be so happy.
What I said is I wouldn’t be as happy as you said. Referring to what John said .
I never said I wouldn’t be happy.
Jesus Christ
The last post was a typo should have said wouldn’t.
I don’t really know why this matters to you anyway.
24.) 20 Aug 2023 19:28:00
You lost me totally as well storm but this is possibly just another embarrassing post from me ?.
25.) 20 Aug 2023 19:31:11
McInnes naw, big punts up the park to a monster and long throws then defend like it was the Alamo with the aid of an atrocious pitch bought from the Barras. How many pitches have the effect of blinding you in strong sunshine, must be unique . Rodgers the gobskitter trying to play games . now he says he needs beautiful beautiful outstanding quality added to his side!
26.) 20 Aug 2023 19:40:50
I only asked a simple question as to why you wouldn't be happy with a player I think would be a good signing. Obviously in your head you knew what you meant by it. How was I to know your reply was a typo or that you meant not as happy as John said. Not sure how you quantify a level of happiness from a post.
It seems I was not the only one to read it that way.
I'll not bother you again storm. I'll completely ignore your posts.
Have a happy life.
27.) 20 Aug 2023 19:45:41
Storm he only ask the question why as you said in your OP why you wouldn't be happy. It is at the point all you had to do was say it was a typo as that's what I thought too. Its you who is getting your knickers in a twist.
28.) 20 Aug 2023 20:12:32
I was asking John something that he said on another thread so don’t really care who I have lost. Mols probably the 1st post that isn’t been embarrassing from you.
Sorry if you guys are lost but I wasn’t asking you any questions ? had a bad day the day but we move onto tomorrow have a good week.
29.) 20 Aug 2023 20:14:00
NRD for last time never said I wouldn’t be happy I said I wouldn’t be as happy as John said I would be.
John posted an said I will be very happy soon eluding to a new signing.
If it’s gray I wouldn’t be as happy as that. I think he is an ok player but not great just my opinion.
30.) 20 Aug 2023 21:28:57
Back Beale and our team!
We need everyone behind them on Tuesday. Give them the famous Ibrox roar and get our team back where they belong! Have faith and patience this team will click ??.
31.) 20 aug 2023 21:34:12
have to say yet again that the way you reply to other people who were extremely kind to you recently is nothing less than utterly awful, in fact it's disgusting storm, do you think you are something on here?
I'm in shock at how you treat people, and beale your very first post on gray said 150k per week. that's what you said.
32.) 20 Aug 2023 22:02:19
Lost me to storm. Posts make no sense ?.
33.) 20 Aug 2023 22:43:29
Verdant players earn far more over their, so yes of course. ?.
34.) 20 Aug 2023 22:43:36
Tbh after the hype I was a bit underwhelmed when it was revealed to be him, I’m with storm I wouldn’t be unhappy but I expected a better name tbh.
35.) 20 Aug 2023 23:10:02
@Beale - I know they earn a lot more in Saudi. So tell me why this guy would choose Scotland over Saudi…?♂️.
36.) 21 Aug 2023 00:49:41
Gray seemingly agreeing yto go to Al Shabab out in Saudi. Here's hoping we've got a backup plan as I really think we need a LW and a CB in. All the better if we can move on Lundstram and replace him and all. Surely Kamara needs to go soon too!
37.) 21 Aug 2023 04:42:13
People saying what he's on now is pointless if he's coming out of contract or whatever he wants what he wants and old wage got nothing to do with new wage considering most of them signed last deals years before hand ??.
38.) 21 Aug 2023 05:31:40
Tom nope i never said that, i posted 150k for the Chelsea lw not Gray.
39.) 21 Aug 2023 05:34:43
Verdant ok cool then, i told YOU who Beale wanted in as lw.
40.) 21 Aug 2023 06:07:34
Verdant you would be better telling me, all I've told you is that was our manager first choice wide left player.
41.) 21 Aug 2023 06:12:07
Tom i was answering gazzagers who said Hudson Odoi, i told him he earns 150k not Gray.
42.) 21 Aug 2023 07:32:19
I was watching the thread above and someone is going on about embarrassing posts, how can any post be embarrassing though- we are not exactly using our real names and have a photo attached, that makes zero sense. Ppl can and will write whatever they like.
It only makes sense if people are taking this stuff to seriously. If people write strange sh! t then nobodies work will find out or you’re girlfriend! And even if she did what she going to say lol. lol your dumped for writing a silly post?
It doesn’t say much about your life if you think you can get embarrassed in a place we’re nobody is ever going to know you. It’s nice outside the weather is pretty mild go out and enjoy it.
43.) 21 Aug 2023 07:44:37
Verdant, your question makes no sense, as Beale didn’t say Gray would choose Scotland over Saudi.
Gray clearly spoke to us given the information on here. He chose Saudi, like almost every person would. We move on. Let’s just hope the player we go for next has the same quality, because without it, it’s going to be another long season. Our forward line needs improved massively (I include wingers in this) .
44.) 21 Aug 2023 09:49:36
I think luis palma will be better than demarai gray anyway tbh better sell on value aswell.
45.) 21 Aug 2023 10:06:23
My question makes perfect sense and time has proven that. Why on Earth would someone reject the big money and lifestyle of Saudi in favour of Scottish football? Dream on ?.
46.) 21 Aug 2023 10:11:50
Gray's off to Saudi Arabia.
47.) 21 Aug 2023 10:27:55
Verdant can you tell me anyone that said he'd turn down that wage and move to Scotland?
48.) 21 Aug 2023 11:16:13
bedle, I'd be very surprised if our manager travelled to meet a player the day before a cupgame.
49.) 21 Aug 2023 11:26:20
Beale why waste your breath, talked to someone this morning, Beale met three players last week, one declined us and has chosen to go to Saudi, wait till u see the money involved
Another player could be arriving in January, defender, his club had allowed him to meet us.
50.) 21 Aug 2023 12:04:38
Do you know if it was cooper John?
16 Aug 2023 20:52:07
I don’t get info but just got a message off my boss and king time friend and it’s probably BS as I think it is but been told Jessie lingard heading to Glasgow and it’s for rangers ?♂️ anyone else heard this?
1.) 16 Aug 2023 21:23:05
Couple of years ago that rumour and somebody has recycled it, he's been training with Miami and West Ham recently .
2.) 16 Aug 2023 21:27:06
Hope not storm injury prone and past his best.
3.) 16 Aug 2023 21:27:49
All I’ve heard is he is back training with West Ham just now, mainly to keep fit but both parties haven’t ruled out the possibility of a deal. Can’t see why we would be interested. Already have Lammers, Cantwell, Hagi and Lawrence who play a similar role. Not a player we would need.
4.) 16 Aug 2023 21:36:08
We were linked with him quite a bit back in the window storm.
from what I’ve read online, I read a lot of transfer pages n like to keep upto date with what’s going on, he’s been training with West Ham to keep fit and they’re considering offering him a short term deal mate.
I’d guess he must be in 60:70k a week minimum mate. Find it unlikely due to what we already have in those positions unless mb thinks he can offer us that thing he thinks we’re missing.
Would stroll it up here mate and certainly don’t want him going to Celtic anyway.
5.) 16 Aug 2023 21:36:09
I would not be against this If true. If fit he could be the best player in Scotland.
6.) 16 Aug 2023 22:10:02
Not heard nothing storm, dunno what to think he’s 30 now isn’t he.
7.) 16 Aug 2023 22:21:27
Absolutely no chance. He is looking for a move to ??.
8.) 16 Aug 2023 22:23:46
Take him.
9.) 16 Aug 2023 22:31:22
Jesse lingard? Storm?

No thank you he's the watto of football
Money is all he cares about we need less players like that not more.
11.) 16 Aug 2023 22:51:08
Absolutely not, the guy’s a poison, wouldn’t have him at the club if he played for free. More concerned with his appearance, about and distracting others. We have a group of hard working guys at the moment with great morale among them and it needs to stay that way.

Outstanding at west ham a couple of seasons ago, he'll be away to the Saudi league or maybe back at West ham, i feel his deal with NF was a bad decision from him last season wouldn't be me I'd be staying where i was.
18.) 17 Aug 2023 09:56:26
I've had many wind up bosses quite a few ended up talking with a limp.
19.) 17 Aug 2023 12:39:47
Wages would be a problem so he would only come to us if he had no other offers, but then we would need to ask why is that . He fits the idea that MB has that he can get players playing back to their best but we have plenty of cover in his position. Would take the Lingaard that played at West Ham for 6 months but not the one from Forest last year.
20.) 18 Aug 2023 15:58:17
Beale you can look at nearly every player and see an outstanding 6month period the problem is the other 10 years or so ?.
14 Jul 2023 16:13:53
John or copland are you hearing anything regarding Danilo?
1.) 14 Jul 2023 17:30:02
Storm I’m hearing very soon.
2.) 14 Jul 2023 17:46:13
Fingers crossed, John25.
3.) 14 Jul 2023 18:10:32
Thanks as always John much appreciated?
John and MpH I seen that both had roughly same thoughts as me on balogun and I still don’t understand it but this signing is one to get the full support excited IMO.
4.) 14 Jul 2023 18:32:59
Info shared good or bad asap John ? lads need the insite what’s going on.
5.) 14 Jul 2023 19:11:41
Wil87 I don’t get if that’s meant as a nice message or cheeky mate?
Why the emoji it doesn’t fit the comment I’m confused mate soz if I’m missing sumfin.
6.) 14 Jul 2023 19:25:02

I have seen a lot of comments about cantwell situation on Thursday. There is no two ways about this the manager was 100% correct cantwell 100% wrong. If manager took Lammers off and put cantwell there then he would be seen as a soft touch. I don’t understand anyone saying BUT lammers stayed on. Lammers didn’t not follow PC instructions cantwell did. The final straw was cantwell losing the ball and throwing his hands in the air instead of trying to win ball back and we lose the goal.
1.) 02 Dec 2023 17:27:04
100% agree storm. Asked to carry out a role and didnt. More interested in throwin himself to ground and arguin, blamin everyone else. Kids talented but desicion makin is rotten. So many times should pass and tries to be fancy and vice versa
His stats since arrived ain't great, must be close to havin more cards than goals/ assists?
He flatter to decieve and think its why his career stalled.
2.) 02 Dec 2023 17:27:05
Agree 100% storm, Cantwell will need to knuckle down, unbelievable talent he should focus on doing it on the park under his managers orders.
3.) 02 Dec 2023 17:33:06
Storm, totally agree. I back the manager. he needs to stamp his authority on this team.
4.) 02 Dec 2023 18:28:47
Storm tbf I agree where my seat is I can see touchline to my right and I’ve always an eye on the manager and have done whoever the manager has been. PC was at Cantwell at least 15 mins beforehand telling him to hold position ( before anyone says I can’t lipread but hand gestures was clear ) and he was cutting inside. I seen PC fairly animated just before the substitution and turned to my mate and said he’ll be off soon and thought and behold he got hooked. I also said to him I don’t think they click and I believe we may see Todd leave in the summer if not January.
5.) 02 Dec 2023 18:34:02
The damage was already done when he started Lammers at 10, he’s now backed into a corner. I agree that the manager is correct but the situation was avoidable.
If the manager now loses Cantwell (and we’ve had better and will have better again in the future) but if he loses Cantwell and the cup final then the daggers will be out.
We’re better than the conference league.
6.) 02 Dec 2023 19:33:32
New here guys. I hear you and couldn't agree more. I said the same things in fans chat. Cantwell is not bigger than the club no matter how talented he is. He has to earn his place like everybody else.
7.) 02 Dec 2023 19:58:28
Think situation is being blown out of proportion, has cantwell or Clement came out and said anything of a rift between any party!? As far as I'm concerned it's done with fully expect cantwell to be in squad tomorrow and to tow the line regarding his role in the team. I think we may look back on it and say that substitution has gave him a kick up the backside.
8.) 02 Dec 2023 20:15:25
I'm playing him tomorrow.
McCausland Cantwell Matondo
Danilo.
9.) 02 Dec 2023 20:17:35
Cantwell’s problem is Canwwell he’s his own enemy.
10.) 02 Dec 2023 20:30:31
I don't think anyone needs to say anything J-zer, a blind man could see, that there's something not right between them.
The issue I have here with PC is, if he does it with Cantwell for not following instructions, he needs to do it with them all. You can't just single one player out, or that will be seen as picking on the lad.
By the way, I agree fully with everyone who said PC was right in taking him off, but it definitely looks like he has a real problem with him.
11.) 02 Dec 2023 20:40:23
There has only been one rumoured fall out between a player and the new gaffer that has susbstance to it as far as I have been told. Dessers being told he won’t get many minutes apparently went from a discussion to a disagreement. The gaffer has told a few they will be surplus and he needs to move some on to have added funds.
12.) 02 Dec 2023 20:59:18
That's really interesting Scotty. If this is true, it would appear that Clement is ruffling a few feathers?
The big fear I have with managers coming in a laying down the law, is the reaction he'll get from the players. Now, we know this playing squad are not the strongest, and lack heart, and stamina, and they have previous of turning against the manager (Gio), and downing tools, so can we expect a different outcome here? Remember when Le Guen came in and tried the same? That turned into a disaster.
I'm not saying he's wrong (I fully back him), and there's a good few he needs to get rid of, it's the reaction of these powder puff, prima Donna's, that worry me. If they decide to spit the dummy, and down tools, before PC has brought his own players in, then the season could be a total write off, again!
13.) 02 Dec 2023 21:08:30
Yeah roofe a blind man could see cantwell was raging being taken off and big Phil wasnt happy camper with but that's to be fully expected they both want to win nobody wants to be hooked like that but at the end of the day you kick off have a moan about it then you knocked down and crack on. I think that will be the case I don't know either of them personally but I just feel it's all being blown out of proportion. Cantwell for the winner tomorrow hopefully and everything Is rosy again lol.
14.) 02 Dec 2023 21:09:11
I think this is why clement trusts and likes lundstram so much, as he gives him everything and has risen to the challenge under clement and has been getting back to his best form under clement ? Clement clearly likes big lunny's attitude so much, thus why he has started him constantly, since he became rangers manager ?.
15.) 02 Dec 2023 21:19:57
I hope you're right J-zer.
16.) 02 Dec 2023 21:58:11
Cantwell is the new Morelos, as soon as he was seen as a potential talisman the timmy press and pundits jumped on his every move and stirred up negative stories abut him . He got all sorts of unfair bookings last season ( sound familiar) and although he has rightly been criticised this season for a couple of dives, the coverage of it was OTT, To suggest he be banned for a dive that was outside the box and not seeking to gain a penalty was ridiculous . Now we get the "rumour" that he doesn`t get on with the new boss and he wants to leave, which then starts to turn some Rangers supporters against him. Wait and see what happens, if he does push to get away then that's the time to turn on him, not now. On form he`s our best player we should be trying to get him back to that level.
17.) 02 Dec 2023 23:15:11
Jzer the manager came out and said why he took him off because he didn’t follow instructions.
Wsl that’s just nonsense. He hasn’t had many unfair bookings at all. He should have had another for the worst dive I have ever seen against the sheep.
18.) 02 Dec 2023 23:35:50
Cantwell does get booked for stupid things, he does get kicked but nothing like it was 30 years ago without a booking, couldn't see him playing then seems a soft lad.
19.) 03 Dec 2023 10:59:02
Cantwell for me is a bit of a luxury player, allowed to go and play wherever he wants. Unfortunately we are not good enough to carry that type of player, yet! And is fairly obvious he rates himself better than he actually is, imo.
20.) 03 Dec 2023 13:27:08
Stormtrooper last season he was getting booked for nothing in games . I did say it was a bad dive but it was outside the box and even if had got something it was only a free kick . I said he was rightly criticised but to suggest he gets a 3 game ban is ridiculous . He wouldn`t have even got that if he has been sent off, dives are booking offences at worst.
30 Nov 2023 22:38:12
I forgot to say their keeper never had many saves to make in that game and that’s what makes me angry. No creativity bar the young boy.
30 Nov 2023 22:35:23
After watching that embarrassment our manager will need a few windows to sort that mess out. Didn’t really matter who it was he took off cantwell or Lammers yes cantwell played out of position but he was rotten and basically cost us the goal throwing his hands in the air instead of trying to win ball back. The defenders everyone of them I would get rid of over the next year none good enough. Doesn’t matter what side souttar plays at.
Danilo I like him and thought he would be good but he can’t hold the ball up and get players into the match. Could go thru the full team but what’s the point.
That team are not good let’s be honest and they have taken 4 points of us shocking! .
At least we have European football after Xmas.
We will not win the league this season not with that squad we need a miracle
In January and I am not even confident of winning the cup in a few weeks.
15 Nov 2023 17:43:12
When everyone is fit front 4 for me
Sima Danilo matondo
Cantwell
Sima and matondo can switch also what does everyone else think?
Lawrence when fully fit will be fighting cantwell for that position.
1.) 15 Nov 2023 18:53:47
Only thing about that is long term we need to be looking at sima replacements can't see us spending kinda money Brighton will want.
2.) 15 Nov 2023 18:57:06
My sky, storm that fourhave great potential.
3.) 15 Nov 2023 19:31:51
A bit of everything in that foursome, Storm.
4.) 15 Nov 2023 19:45:43
Gofor, we have a replacement for Sima, in Lawrence.
5.) 15 Nov 2023 19:54:10
Sima, Danilo, Cantwell
Lawrence.
McCausland to stay involved, Matondo on the bench as impact sub until we sign someone better.
6.) 15 Nov 2023 20:06:15
Nice front 4, Lawrence v Cantwell 2 great options. I may be wrong has Matondo had a good game on the right, my memory maybe be wrong but think when he went to the left he started to flourish, correct me if i'm wrong folks.
7.) 15 Nov 2023 20:37:14
TJBB that’s why I said either can switch positions mate.
Wsl I just think cantwell best position is 10 that’s why I put him there. He isn’t a winger and clement likes wingers that’s my thinking behind with Lawrence fighting him for the spot.
Kilted I don’t think Lawrence is a winger so not replacing sima.
John I agree and even with Lawrence in their still great potential and all hopefully enough to fire us to the title. Big run of games coming up and we need to be at worse 5 behind them before we play them.
Cheers MpH and gofor the replies also.
8.) 15 Nov 2023 21:15:47
Kilted so far Lawrence has not been in a reliable state of fitness
And he's no winger.
9.) 15 Nov 2023 21:17:19
Mcausland should get a run in the team to see if he can grab his chance done brilliantly so far.
10.) 15 Nov 2023 21:19:56
Sima has played his most games on the rw, as storm says both can change sides and fullbacks don't like that.
11.) 15 Nov 2023 21:24:54
Matondo can’t go back to the right wing he was poor there and that’s how he lost all confidence last season. Would have to put sima on the right.
12.) 15 Nov 2023 22:04:25
Lawrence has played as a winger for derby am sure.
13.) 15 Nov 2023 23:33:24
Gofor, Lawrence has played the vast majority of his career as a LW. but your right, he's not a winger.
14.) 16 Nov 2023 04:49:36
Totally agree with you storm that cantwell's best position is the no.10 position and our best two we have undoubtedly for me are cantwell and lawrence ? What an exciting front 4 that would be ie. cantwell,
matondo, sima and danilo ???.
15.) 16 Nov 2023 08:40:42
I like that 4?.
09 Nov 2023 20:22:03
Who says cantwell playing on the right? ?
That would be me ??.
1.) 09 Nov 2023 20:37:45
Can’t.
2.) 09 Nov 2023 21:00:06
He's stitched you up there! haha.
09 Dec 2023 12:19:46
Bonuses etc…. He will get close to 30k so posters aren’t wrong we can only see what their flat rate is of players but some seem to forget that.
08 Dec 2023 22:23:23
Azul that won’t be shankland then as half his goals last season were pens and he ain’t getting them off Tav.
08 Dec 2023 19:08:53
What’s happened to Danilo? He seems to be injury prone as well.
08 Dec 2023 16:13:16
Davidb you don’t know a player when you see one obviously.
07 Dec 2023 20:50:20
Those Newcastle Utd pals are up there with timalloy kid in pals in the east ?♂️.
09 Dec 2023 12:25:38
Correct paul he has been a waste of a wage apart from one year.
09 Dec 2023 12:24:01
My star he hasn’t played tho for months as he has been injured that was his 1st game back.
09 Dec 2023 12:22:39
Lee McCulloch can say whatever he likes the same as me and you, it’s hearts we need to deal with if we want him no one else.
08 Dec 2023 22:25:20
No TJBB at he value him at 2 million if that’s what they want.
I have my doubts they will only want two million.
08 Dec 2023 19:13:59
Bgate it means we ain’t paying that amount for a 17 year old.
