This will turn into the longest takeover in history, as for the manager hunt i am getting the fear the last man standing wil be Russell Martin who in my opinion should be nowhere near our club, the ancelotti saga is taking far too long as i think he is hedging his bets waiting for something bigger to come along.
1.) 30 May 2025 11:20:17
True, This takeover will be completed in around 9 months and for me that is very fast takeover.
2.) 30 May 2025 11:21:01
Or maybe waiting on take over to be done so they know what budget they have is actually able to get them the players they want?
3.) 30 May 2025 11:23:57
This is a long way away from being the longest takeover in history. Even now it is relatively quick in progression.
4.) 30 May 2025 11:30:59
Remember the takeover at Leeds was delivered over a number of years.
5.) 30 May 2025 12:02:31
Maybe Mr Ancelotti, was cramming a last minute holiday in with family before the chaos of revamping a sleeping giant begins.
23 Jan 2025 14:34:38
Matondo deal broke down.
1.) 23 Jan 2025 16:30:24
Issue over bonuses
Sunderland are in for him so hopefully they firm it up.
2.) 23 Jan 2025 16:48:26
He's on way too much at Rangers, unfortunately.
3.) 23 Jan 2025 16:50:08
There's a shock! He's making a fortune. We've got him on the books until his deal runs out.
4.) 23 Jan 2025 16:58:09
Wouldn't mind Sunderland signing him, they need more width, he could do very well in that league barring injury.
5.) 23 Jan 2025 17:05:50
Boo him out of the club. He's an absolute parasite. Fed up of these mercenaries. Don't care for playing football just leeching our finances. I'm not usually one for this type of stuff but if he comes out for us again he needs to know when don't want him. It's a shame I named my account after the complete imposter.
6.) 23 Jan 2025 17:08:36
Shame. Oh well.
7.) 23 Jan 2025 17:29:51
Mph where u seeing spurs for igaman.
8.) 23 Jan 2025 17:33:47
I agree rabbi. Guy is useless. A complete loser, with no heart or desire. You can see the way he runs about the park (on the odd occasion he's fit) same bracket as dowell.
9.) 23 Jan 2025 17:38:52
Rabbi, shocking behaviour.
10.) 23 Jan 2025 17:40:18
Bah. Hopefully someone else comes in!
11.) 23 Jan 2025 17:46:17
Rabbi no we won't boo him out and it's not his fault our board signed off on 27k a week. If you were offered that would you turn it down? Ridiculous post.
12.) 23 Jan 2025 18:02:28
Club turned down offered due to add ons and bonuses. Read the posts on the site. No blame to the player.
13.) 23 Jan 2025 18:15:54
Rabbi ; that's a terrible post. Matondo didn't turn up outside Ibrox begging to play for us he was scouted then asked if he would come and play for us it's a pity it hasn't worked out but acting like a spoilt child booing to get your own way is a shocking way to treat one of our own players.
14.) 23 Jan 2025 18:19:16
Rabbi - that's one of the most ridiculous posts ever posted on here.
Clown.
15.) 23 Jan 2025 18:49:55
MJ I really laugh at posts like yours. No attempt to actually add anything insightful or respectful. That 'loser' is pocketing £25k a week, pretty sure he'll tithing you're the loser. I can see why rangers bought him, amazing raw talent. Not being fit and not really suited to Scottish game, mostly playing for rangers in Scotland has made it really difficult for him to get a run of form even if he's fit. For us it's about protecting losses on players that haven't worked but the OP and you can never add anything to the forum with unintelligent put downs like that. Hopefully we move him on that to limit the cost to Rangers while taking advantage of any potential he has down the line, but best of luck to him whatever happens.
16.) 23 Jan 2025 19:09:01
No. hus fault the clowns on the board offered him so much this is precisely what I meant in a previous post re dessers,
Toxic re some players
Let's hound them out
We are beginning to get a rep as to how we treat players
Word spreads.
17.) 23 Jan 2025 19:14:20
Mj88rfc not much better from the same cloth?.
18.) 23 Jan 2025 19:35:35
I mean we all know the guy isn't for us and is a waste of a wage but at the end of the day if a club like Rangers come in for you and offer stupid money each week then you sign it. Numpties who signed him should be held accountable, not the player.
So Rabbi take a long hard look in the mirror and repeat after me "I Rabbi will do better" asking for folk to turn up and boo players is disgraceful and exactly what we don't want at our club!
19.) 23 Jan 2025 20:52:18
He's a parasite.
20.) 23 Jan 2025 21:01:47
So we should support the treatment of Cyriel who gives his all but not the walking sick note. He had no intentions of giving his all here. £3.5million he's siphoned from us. There's a huge difference between booing players playing and scoring to wage parasites who won't leave and are taking the life blood of our club. If you're happy with that then says more about you than me.
21.) 23 Jan 2025 22:10:46
put the drink away rabbi mate, absolute shocker of a take ? embarrassed yourself here.
22.) 24 Jan 2025 08:32:09
Rabbi
Your dissin boy for trying to earn crust. He took what gers offered and has right to see out his contract. Am sure boo boys will bother him getting 25k week but gers should be looking for potential buyer. he's got enough potential in him.
23.) 24 Jan 2025 11:35:39
Rabbi - the fact you can't see youve embarrassed yoursef here says it all.
I reiterate - Clown.
24.) 24 Jan 2025 13:39:06
Clown? Seems like my opinion is a common concensus. The real definition of a happy clapper. Get these rats out of our club.
25.) 24 Jan 2025 18:32:35
Turn up with the intention of booing our own players to drive them out the club
Calling our players rats
You think you have a common consensus?
And I'm a happy clapper because i disagree with the above?
Are you allowed out in public by yourself?
03 Jan 2025 11:25:33
Looks like the cifuentes deal is off at aris as their new coach does not fancy him.
1.) 03 Jan 2025 12:50:44
Its mad how far he's fallen as a player, his stock was very high when we signed him.
2.) 03 Jan 2025 12:53:37
Bloody fantastic. Another waste of a wage. Koppen and PC are going to have a really hard time getting rid of deadwood even if they're on the cheap.
3.) 03 Jan 2025 13:08:58
he has been injured since start of December I think so he hasn't been playing because of that. remember they are trying to negotiate the fee down so it may be part of that ploy.
4.) 03 Jan 2025 13:19:10
We should bring him back and give him January to prove himself while also looking for his next move before end of window.
5.) 03 Jan 2025 13:19:44
Gersgirl, cifuentes is a good midfielder and just because he didn't settle into scottish football doesn't suggest he ain't ?.
6.) 03 Jan 2025 13:27:39
He might even be worth a second look to be honest. I didn’t think he was as bad as some made out.
7.) 03 Jan 2025 13:27:40
Hes a dud. Just glad didn't splash on him like we did dessers and lammers etc but deary me we really need to start recruiting a lot better. Really hope we can shift dessers this month.
8.) 03 Jan 2025 13:59:29
Lot were saying the same regarding Hagi.
9.) 03 Jan 2025 14:14:43
Aye in your opinion Paul86 ? Because he's not played well in our league doesn't make him a dud ? He's looked good in america, in greece and for his country? This is stupid/ crazy patter a player is a dud because they've not settled or played well in our league ?.
10.) 03 Jan 2025 14:30:02
I always thought Cifu had something. never given a proper chance i feel.
I'd give him another chance in the squad now.
He can't be worse that Dowell haha.
11.) 03 Jan 2025 14:33:09
I’d look at touting him to clubs in USA n a swap deal for someone.
12.) 03 Jan 2025 14:45:59
Cifuentes was awful please no.
13.) 03 Jan 2025 15:16:08
Cifu wasn’t the worst and most people can see a player in there as some have said maybe not suited to Scottish football.
14.) 03 Jan 2025 15:29:51
Did he fail to make the grade in Greece?
15.) 03 Jan 2025 15:01:53
Cifuentes is a very good footballer but he never showed in a Rangers jersey apart from the game against Betis away, man seemingly isn't mentally strong enough for our climate, sell him, top teams in Greece very interested in him, or like stevie said teams in mls would be very interested in him he was one of the best cm in that league, only problem will he go back.
16.) 03 Jan 2025 15:38:25
I'd be in no hurry to see Cifu return, but given how poor so many players looked under MB I wouldn't automatically write him off if he did.
17.) 03 Jan 2025 15:49:16
He was very slow, and didn’t like the weather here, so he’s not going to settle, cut your losses with him.
18.) 03 Jan 2025 15:50:38
Dont think cifu should ever be a weatherman.
19.) 03 Jan 2025 16:11:17
Never believed for a minute they'd pay the £4m.
20.) 03 Jan 2025 16:24:20
Cifuentes didn't adjust from Sunset Boulevard to Mosspark Boulevard. Maybe best to alert MLS clubs and spin him round again. Definitely a player in there but just not got the temperament to make it at Rangers in the wind and rain of Scotland.
21.) 03 Jan 2025 16:56:33
Maestro he wasn't slow, he wanted too much time on the ball in our league, which probably made him look slow ?.
22.) 03 Jan 2025 17:05:04
He wouldn't be the first player not to settle in a new country.
23.) 03 Jan 2025 17:18:25
Ecuador gets plenty of wet weather so that's no excuse.
24.) 03 Jan 2025 17:30:38
No difference it temperature catch? that was the reason not rain fall.
25.) 03 Jan 2025 17:34:33
Exactly mark.
26.) 03 Jan 2025 17:52:25
Sir walter failed in scotland, has been heavily slated for his country, failed in brazil and now out of favour in greece? Was good in MLS by all accounts tho. Beale did day he woukd take us to the next level after all.
27.) 03 Jan 2025 18:23:15
Beale from what we know it’s the weather and culture shock for him; I’d imagine he’d junk at the chance to go back to America mate.
28.) 03 Jan 2025 18:52:23
He wanted a crack in Europe Stevie, he could be satisfied that he never cut in Europe but that certainly wouldn't be me mate, i wouldn't be going back to the mls unless I'm putting it down to failure and that wouldn't be happening before trying again for another season or 2,when went in for him he really seemed like a positive man but him seemingly not mentally strong enough for our climate does it for me mate.
29.) 03 Jan 2025 19:35:07
Wouldn’t be me either mate. Was it not something to do with his missus though? did she not leave him And head home when she seen the weather?
Maybe try the Dutch league; I know he has skills. It’s finding a league that suits him so we can maximise our return.
A loan swap is a great idea.
30.) 03 Jan 2025 21:11:57
Valued around £8-10 million when in the mls still think we can get 3-4million for him to the right club.
31.) 03 Jan 2025 23:34:21
Paul out of curiosity mate, what rangers players do you like ?.
32.) 04 Jan 2025 00:45:50
Did they not sign a binding contract to purchase him? Wether or not the new manager wants him or not they have an obligation to purchase.
23 Aug 2024 13:27:21
Davies to Birmingham loan with option to buy.
1.) 23 Aug 2024 15:26:53
Wish it was "obligation" to buy ?.
2.) 23 Aug 2024 15:43:17
As long as Birmingham pay his wages or at least most of them it gives us some flexability.
3.) 23 Aug 2024 15:45:19
would explain why we made an offer on the CB that got rejected then. wish Davies well and hopefully can bring us in some funds for next summer, and another high earner off the books reported 27k per week.
4.) 23 Aug 2024 16:45:00
Better than nothing. So long as it means we can strengthen at CB. Think he's contracted to 2026, so good this works out for him and he gets a permanent move from it. I was disappointed to see us missing out on McKenna and Souttar, and think we need another first pick CB in.
5.) 23 Aug 2024 17:38:21
27 grand a week? good God there must have been several eejits getting to that result .
6.) 23 Aug 2024 18:38:39
You would think some English club would take him. Ex Liverpool defender, that wouldn't cost too much.
7.) 23 Aug 2024 18:43:17
I think that us needing to sell before we bring in is to do with wage structure and squad size rather than transfer fees.
8.) 23 Aug 2024 21:27:59
The guy must have been decent at Preston, maybe other things have caused his problems, family stuff etc, good luck to him seems a decent bloke.
9.) 23 Aug 2024 21:46:33
Mark44, from what I remember he didn't make the first team once mate.
10.) 24 Aug 2024 00:47:12
Hopefully he kicks on wish him the best with his loan move.
11.) 24 Aug 2024 06:38:31
Pretty sure his manager at Preston rated him as the best left sided CB in the championship before he went to Liverpool
Coincidentally the other mob were trying to sign him before Liverpool made there bid, due to injuries
Genuinely think he was probably at one time decent but being ripped to bits by wee Mo and Sadio etc probably dented his confidence, just like it did to Leon King.
12.) 24 Aug 2024 07:27:02
Mark44 - Ex Liverpool in name only - there was probably a reason why he never kicked a ball for them - Klopp didn't want him and was only there as a benchwarmer - then we pay top dollar and high wages - knee jerk Rangers board once more - hope he gets move south and we at least clear our feet.
{Ed001's Note - he got injured, that meant he missed his chance.}
13.) 24 Aug 2024 09:44:18
Mark44 an ex Liverpool player that didn't play a game for them not exactly great selling point
I said at the Time we vastly overpaid and was hounded here.
14.) 24 Aug 2024 10:02:11
Guys, you might be correct that he never played for Liverpool, but he was still classed good enough for them to sign him.
15.) 24 Aug 2024 10:32:55
Birmingham ain't skint so if we are subbing them in any way it's insane. Would have been better to see if they had someone to trade.
02 Jul 2024 23:19:30
AZ Alkmaar allegedly submitting bid of £2.5million for lammers, got to be more than that, surely?
1.) 03 Jul 2024 00:28:16
Take it and run.
2.) 03 Jul 2024 00:40:03
I would give him pre season to impress.
3.) 03 Jul 2024 07:17:35
Take it and save 3 million on salary costs over next three seasons. A no brainer. Add in a sell on.
4.) 03 Jul 2024 08:14:32
I would be hoping for that up front with add ons taking it to 4m.
5.) 03 Jul 2024 08:27:01
Agree John don’t want to get greedy with him and we get stuck with him.
6.) 03 Jul 2024 08:46:52
I'd want more than 2.5 million.
7.) 03 Jul 2024 09:38:30
He impressed last pre season and look how that worked out.
8.) 03 Jul 2024 09:39:23
Mark last season you said Rangers would not be able to sell Lammers or dessers, let’s not get greedy.
9.) 03 Jul 2024 09:40:03
Agree John/ Bellshill 3m and add ons would do, aswell as the wages saved. ?.
10.) 03 Jul 2024 09:42:41
Yeah, said before I think it's important we don't get greedy with Lammers. I like him, but he's never going to be our no9 and didn't fit in our team elsewhere. We need to move him on and in the circumstances where he's never going to make it at Rangers anything from £2.5 m up is good business for us.
Our fans mostly agree buying him at c£3.5m is/ was bad business for us, so we can't turn round and seriously think he's worth £5m on the market now.
11.) 03 Jul 2024 11:25:22
So we sell Lammers for 2.5m and we talk about selling our players for profit, the tims want 4m for oh a poor cf, we paid 3.5m for him covered most of his wages but sell for 2.5m 12 months later, probably cost us 4.5m including wages but lose 2m in twelve months is very good business, by the way i don't think we only receive 2.5m for Lammers, hopefully media bollocks again.
12.) 03 Jul 2024 11:26:49
One of the best cf in Holland since Christmas but we want to lose 2m on him, cool.
13.) 03 Jul 2024 12:23:15
2.5 up front with achievable add ons to potentially double it based on appearances/ goals would be an ideal scenario. Was quality second half of the season but we run the risk of it being a flash in the pan by not selling now. Always thought there was a player there but not one that we will see in Scotland.
14.) 03 Jul 2024 12:43:40
Usual panic mentality from some. Aye let’s keep selling for a loss and say it’s good biz! Selling at a loss IS NEVER GOOD BIZ.
Selling a player who has been less than a year with us and been very successful in the league where a club want him to play for less money is completely inept!
15.) 03 Jul 2024 13:27:37
If the team who want him have just sold a player for £18 million we should be at least asking for a fee that gives us our money back .
16.) 03 Jul 2024 14:43:35
John, I still think 2.5 is too low. you don't get much for that money nowadays.

Rumour is russell martin adam gill maurice ross the dream team from our new owners, god help us, who knows where we are headed, if true we will be heading out of europe at the very first hurdle, cannot believe that this could be sanctioned.
1.) 03 Jun 2025 17:10:59

Just posted the same?.
2.) 22 May 2025 20:09:55
Dont think russell martin would be a bad appointment. Probably better than gerrard.
3.) 22 May 2025 20:22:28
Right. who's had £2 on Martin? Gone in in the betting to a 6/ 1 3rd favourite! Might take a long shot ew, et365 paying 4 places if you think they'll get an interview ?.
4.) 22 May 2025 20:31:35
Drove Maurice about a few times in Glasgow years ago
Just can't see it to be honest guys no disrespect to Maurice but definitely not what we would need and don't see what he would bring to Rangers being Assistant.
5.) 22 May 2025 20:36:50
Think Martin would be decent appointment tbh wants to play attacking football.
6.) 22 May 2025 21:06:11
Russell Martin is going to be next Leicester boss. No?
7.) 22 May 2025 21:57:17
No idea who will be our manager, but Matt Gill was the assistant when Martin was at Southampton.
8.) 22 May 2025 22:19:03
Maurice Ross has his A coaching licence and is going for his pro licence so obviously knows his stuff. stop equating his playing career with his ability to coach.
09 May 2025 20:40:44
Reports say 18,000 0n season ticket waiting list.
1.) 09 May 2025 21:22:51
It's incredible after the past few years to have that many people waiting for the chance of a season ticket. I wonder. if new owners will try and add capacity to accommodate more fans there's definitely a demand.
2.) 09 May 2025 22:30:18
Fsr rules has changed ows so I doubt that will happen for a long time.
3.) 09 May 2025 23:12:42

4.) 10 May 2025 06:03:29
Paul it has been changed it was mentioned in 2nd part of the fan advisory board meeting mate.
5.) 10 May 2025 08:30:45
PS stated that ground expansion was an option, which I know it to be, but that it wasn't a current priority due to the return on investment (ROI) . Most of the investment the club will make in the near future will be discussed on maximising ROI.
23 Feb 2025 01:09:39
Must be great for all these players in our club to know that they won't suffer any consequences of their actions knowing it will all fall on the manager, not bumming up pc in anyway here but shared blame should be placed at the feet of the players as well, a complete and utter spineless bunch to be performing like that, its been obvious that pc can't motivate these players and should be moved pronto but he won't be, they will all turn up for training as usual waiting till the seasons end with not a jot of concern, as i said in an earlier post i will not watch another game this season with that manager and players they are brutal, if jose is watching this piss he must be shaking in his boots waiting to play us.
1.) 23 Feb 2025 07:05:25
Of course it's not just the fault of our manager philippe clement as these players have to shoulder a big part of the blame as well as our directors! Sadly and i was prepared to give philippe clement at least until the end of the season, i think his time is up as our manager ☹️with a lot of the players also as they're hiding behind the Rangers manager ?
We need players who can carry the Rangers jersey in adversity and like i've said before we're signing the wrong sort of player's and definitely not enough of players who know what it means to wear our famous jersey ?.
2.) 23 Feb 2025 08:27:27
I agree Sir Walter. although PC seems to be either inept or too stubborn to change formations positively when things aren't going our way, it's the 11 on the pitch that have to perform. Too many are there for the show and pick up their pay. The days of players coming in and knowing what it means to play for our club may be in the past (unless young Scottish players) but any pro player should play with pride and fight to win a game.
3.) 23 Feb 2025 08:50:51
Sws if that's the case nk csn go as well he's lauded by many on here. There a culture at the club of being 2nd best thst rund from top to bottom but itd the managers job to set the team up and he knew st. mirren would set up like they did and done nothing to combat it because he's stubborn it's his way he's always right and he needs to get out ASAP j do agree on tav for me when he was out for a few games injured and raskin took the armband we looked better and had more variation on set piece but again the manager picks the players.
4.) 23 Feb 2025 08:54:48
I don't think he will be sacked I just think he should.
5.) 23 Feb 2025 09:26:59
Trueblue I am struggling to see how any manager could motivate those players. yesterday you would think at least a couple would play well or at least try for personal pride.
I have supported Clement as I wanted to see him manage at a time when all the backroom fuss was over. I suspect that won't happen now but not sure what any other manager can get out of this group after yesterday.
6.) 23 Feb 2025 09:35:21
I agree again Storm. I can't see it happening but perhaps once we are out of Europe if takeover is nearer. I see now that even if he were to improve that bunch of spineless gits then he has lost the fans so there is no way back. New DoF might have that as his job to instantly bring the fans onside.

Very much looks like martin is a stick on to be the new coach, my gut instinct is cheap job and a miserable failure, mind you i will say on his behalf he has got the gift of the gab, going to be in for the long haul.

Storm see how many he will sign for us when he runs out of players he does not already know previously, i garauntee you the will not be many or none at all, i don't think he has respect as a manager outwith england to pull anyone in, and by the way this is my opinion if you don't agree feel free to scroll by my posts.

Rusty that's my point re Darling.

Got a funny feeling that martin does not have the pulling power to get players to sign for us unless he has previous with them, could be a long transfer window for us regarding this, hope i am wrong but martin gives me the fear that this is going to go very slow for us this season.
