Rangers banter 7

Godfrey MOTM for me

Looks like he could be a good signing. Early days though

26 Jul 2026 19:46:38
Devlin MOTM for me, and only played one half. 👌🇬🇧 The wee fella already a fans' favourite, and was superb again. 👌🇬🇧 A certain starter at Tannadice on Friday night. 👍🇬🇧

26 Jul 2026 20:02:08
Coops, I love Devlin already. He'll have a big part to play this season.

26 Jul 2026 20:13:31
It's quite simple really, if we want to be champions, we shouldn't be worried about games like next Friday. I personally am a lot more confident of a new season and I have been for years.

26 Jul 2026 20:43:48
If we don't win our first game, which we haven't done for about 4 years, we will be playing catch up on Celtic again. It will be a very tough game, and to be honest we don't look ready.

26 Jul 2026 17:14:14
Lots of good and bad. Liked our defensive shape. We faded as the first half ended. Diomande though! Soft soft soft. Just crumbles under the slightest of pressure.

26 Jul 2026 18:30:27
Was Dio playing injured? He was running with a limp for most of the game.

26 Jul 2026 18:52:30
Lost count the amount of times Dio gets robbed in possession. We need a shot of this guy asap.

26 Jul 2026 19:25:06
Dio probably needs moved on, I agree.

26 Jul 2026 19:51:17
100% Peterpanloyal, very very poor again. I just hope we can find a buyer sooner rather than later.

26 Jul 2026 20:02:44
I agree b2b re Dio.

26 Jul 2026 20:09:23
Dio spends more time on his arse than he does his feet.

26 Jul 2026 23:50:54
There will be buyers for Diomonde if the price is OK. I know we want top money for players, but the market will decide their value. If we hold out for figures we have set, we could be left with a few players who are not in McInnes' plans.
Soutar
Macauslan
Berami
Nsiala
Would add to that list:
Gassama
Antman.

27 Jul 2026 09:00:05
Dio is poor. Don't know why he starts games.

26 Jul 2026 16:58:40
We sign devlin vanja chucki neil
An have Aasgaard best playing further back Dahl might have happened if the price was 5million but not now
So best to move on

Great first half performance
Curtis needs to be more direct an Naderi needs to get involved more apart from that the footballs good to watch
Put a cerny Chermiti in that team

26 Jul 2026 18:16:26
A lot to be pleased about in that showing. Defensively looked sound. Godfrey was great, loves a tackle and great awareness. If he can stay fit, we'll have a player on our hands. Aasgaard was very good. Change of manager might just be what he was needing.


Antman looked keen when he came on, but not sure he has a future in this team.
We were the better team and on another day could have won it. All eyes now on the "ins" and "outs" before the league business starts on Friday. 🤞

26 Jul 2026 18:47:36
Thought the same about Antman. This team needs some proper width, so if he's not crying for a move and is prepared to work hard, he could still be an option.

26 Jul 2026 16:54:15
Well penultimate half of football before the season starts.

Ups:
Devlin looks great, Sterling and Aasgaard look the part.

Downs:
Lacking attacking threat. The limit of our creativity is hit and hope crosses. Naderi looks like a headless chicken. Gassama can't pick the right pass and Curtis looks burst already.

Hoping we see some more of the actual starting line up second half.

26 Jul 2026 16:49:58
Lots of positives from that 1st half.

Aasgaard
Devlin
More compact in defence
Keeper looks good
Good pressing.

Just lacking a bit of quality in final 3rd.

26 Jul 2026 18:36:57
Sterling had a good game today.

26 Jul 2026 18:48:45
He did, Mystar, but that'll be him bust until early October.

26 Jul 2026 19:01:20
Not been injured for a while, first pre season since his first one as a Rangers player, Marco.

26 Jul 2026 19:05:34
If only Gassama had a football brain - need upgrade there for certain. 👍

26 Jul 2026 15:52:18
Don't know how I feel about Sterling being made captain.

26 Jul 2026 16:20:44
Well, I doubt he is leaving because surely you don't make people captain when they are leaving.

26 Jul 2026 16:21:08
A lot of people seem to be getting misinformation at present.

26 Jul 2026 16:48:03
So far Aasgaard is proving me wrong from my criticism of last season and for that I'm more than happy to be proved wrong, don't get me wrong, one swallow doesn't make a summer, but maybe the WC has galvanised him, because all I ever asked for as a fan was 100% effort, and he is showing that in abundance today, plus his movement and football brain is on show.

Well done, Thelo. Devlin is doing the business as well.

26 Jul 2026 16:55:10
I agree, Mcmillst. There's a player in there. Devlin will be phenomenal for us if he keeps fit. His type of play must incur injuries.
Only a friendly. Enjoying the dig. First half better than last showing. Bodes well.

26 Jul 2026 16:59:54
Sterling, Devlin and Aasgaard looking the part in first half, better team performance all round so far.

26 Jul 2026 17:05:24
It's a complete and utter disgrace that we think it's acceptable to have a drunk driver captain of our great club. It's absolutely disgusting sooner that guy is gone the betterb

26 Jul 2026 18:25:34
Bit harsh, Storm. Yeah, shouldn't have happened, and lucky no one injured, but everyone makes mistakes. He had a great game today, and if he stayed fit (not going to happen, I know), then he's a huge asset to the team.

26 Jul 2026 18:50:29
Storm, people make mistakes in life. Is that all you took from today's game who was captain? 🤔

26 Jul 2026 19:06:12
Sterling is a player. Too quiet for captain though.

26 Jul 2026 19:27:08
Sterling was fantastic today. Hopefully, and praying he stays fit as he's better than McCrorie.

26 Jul 2026 19:27:47
I prefer a captain to lead by example on and off the pitch.

26 Jul 2026 20:06:02
Yeh got to agree, I was a tad uncomfortable with him as Captain today.

Is that hypocritical though, as I didn't complain about him playing for the club again? I dunno.

26 Jul 2026 15:37:28
A strong West Ham side here today and I've saw stronger Rangers sides. Interesting too see this back 4 up against West Ham's front line which isn't too shabby. Hope both teams come through injury free and The Famous 🔴⚪️💙 win an entertaining game against The ⚒️

26 Jul 2026 17:03:53
Fernandez strolled that opening half, wait and see coin we brings.

26 Jul 2026 17:37:41
He sure will, mate 👍 Funny how last game he's crap, him and Godfrey wonder if they will have a change of mind after today's game.

26 Jul 2026 18:04:21
Rangers probably the better side, I think. Defence comfortable.

26 Jul 2026 18:52:25
Fernandez, still slowing the game down and silly short passes to our midfielders is either going to get one of them hurt or cost us a goal. He needs to smarten up. And also stop waving his hands at his team mates when he messes up.

26 Jul 2026 19:04:54
Marco, do you ever say anything positive. Slowed the game down? What, when there was no one available for the pass, so he waits till other team mates make themselves available. 😉 How is passing a short pass going to get a player hurt. A would be surprised if you actually watched the game with them comments.

26 Jul 2026 19:34:03
I agree with Marco, Fernandez seems allergic to playing a quick ball and some of those straight passes into midfield were criminal.
