Rangers banter 9

31 Oct 2026 13:41:09
Philippe Clement must be gone by tonight, shame, I honestly thought he was dealt a tough hand with us, but I think the reality is he's not a great manager.

31 Oct 2026 13:58:46
I thought he was doing a good job mate, no?

He was unlucky last season almost worked a miracle.

31 Oct 2026 14:22:46
Looking like Norwich wins today.

31 Oct 2026 14:25:06
Why would PC be gone? Norwich just won 3-2 against Watford coming from 2-0 down!

31 Oct 2026 14:26:59
They did win, 2 nil down before 30 minutes, won 3-2, Stevie i though Norwich would be up there, play offs anyway, but you just never know in that league, look at Burnley just now, in the relegation zone.

31 Oct 2026 14:49:41
Beale, I've not payed any attention to that league this season mate. In fact, I tend to skip that plus 1 and 2 when gambling. So unpredictable mate.

I look for 1 or 2 from each foreign league, I don't even touch many EPL these days.

31 Oct 2026 15:01:53
Fair play to him today, nobody should lose to Watford, awful team.

Keeps him going for another few weeks.

31 Oct 2026 15:17:33
I don't pay any attention to any leagues apart from our own but looking at the Championship just there then that must be one of the toughest leagues out there to win or get promoted . The amount of big teams that are closely matched, with lots of them been in the Premiership in the past few years is unreal.

It got me thinking about some of the comments you see on here when folk post about some players saying he's a Championship player at best. Haha I think if you're good enough to play in that league then you're good enough to play up here.

Anyway good luck with Norwich Phil your a good man.

31 Oct 2026 15:29:49
Exactly Three Cheers.

Do some bets in the Championship Stevie, treble just now, Middlesbrough win btts.
Millwall win btts, Southampton win btts. 20.86/1, basically 21/1 mate.

31 Oct 2026 16:15:57
Good bet my star, I took Southampton and Middlesbrough, unfortunately I took City 🙈🙈.

31 Oct 2026 17:32:01
It's a strange one Three Cheers. How many top Championship players have we seen been utter failures up here but at the same time our players go there and struggle too?

31 Oct 2026 19:45:41
More quality in the Championship, good players coming from the Championship some find our game too fast, and more physical with less technical ability.

31 Oct 2026 12:41:59
If Sterling isn't fit for today, you think he'll play Godfrey at right back thus solving his problem og giving Godfrey a game but keeping Manny in the team.

31 Oct 2026 13:26:47
Possibility, would tick 2 boxes.

31 Oct 2026 13:43:26
I wonder if he may go back 3 today or something? I just feel he's going to do something we don't expect today.

31 Oct 2026 13:57:56
Godfrey should play instead of Fernandez, for me.

We need players we can trust, and unfortunately, Manny just isn't that.

31 Oct 2026 13:58:21
Is Sterling a doubt Stevie?

I thought he was now robust enough to play 3 matches in a week.

He did not appear to pick up a contact injury on Wednesday.

31 Oct 2026 14:53:46
I would play the young Serb at RB, drop big Manny, play Sterling along side makhyana, give Penrice a rest and start Rommens.

31 Oct 2026 15:12:21
I don't think changing three quarters of your back line is a good idea for a semi final, Teddy.

31 Oct 2026 15:20:20
Stevie, Sterling isn't a doubt for today, mate, I don't know where you're getting that from, that just leads to more nonsense getting posted.

31 Oct 2026 16:09:46
Someone had suggested it 2 days ago maye that if he's not got for today who should play.

I just gathered there must've been something I had missed.

I'd play him today if for absolutely, Godfrey should replace manny.

31 Oct 2026 17:05:42
He is showing he is robust, I'm only hoping his last operation sorted his issue, can't understand why anyone wouldn't want the same.
Stevie, I never seen that post then mate, was never a doubt, three games from Saturday to Saturday, some need to get it a rest with his injuries now.

31 Oct 2026 22:48:26
He certainly is bro.

31 Oct 2026 10:02:19
Think this will be a stiffer test than some might think the sheep are usually well up for these games against us, can't see there being many changes to our starting 11 think it will be more or less of the same, going for a 2-1, couldn't be on at a worse time right enough will all the kids chapping the door for their Halloween.

31 Oct 2026 10:19:00
Really hoping that this team bares its teeth today and absolutely dominates / batters Aberdeen as a reaction to the pish we had to endure on Wednesday. Saying that I'll take a scrappy 1-0 win and place in the final at the end of the day! 😂.

31 Oct 2026 10:45:31
Heart, desire and character from the players.

Proactive adaptability from the management.

That is what I asking for.

These players need to show they are up for the fight and can handle the pressure of being at Rangers.

31 Oct 2026 13:33:50
All of the above and right from the off, NATO. Ideally allied to a constant high-tempo in everything we do. Forget the sheep's form leading up to this, they will be up for the fight and we need to have that same desire in spades.

MON THE GERS!

🔴⚽🔵🇬🇧👍.

31 Oct 2026 13:33:59
Borders ger need to get the performance too U can feel it when you're in a team flying or not. A bad result comes from previous performances.

31 Oct 2026 17:19:55
I get that Aberdeen will be right up for it but I would ask why wouldn't we be right up for it as well? Its a cup semi final so surely we should be desperate to get to the final. Most of our team hardly have a winners medal between them and this is a great chance for them.

31 Oct 2026 07:39:07
{Ed's Note - Ed001 has posted a new article entitled, Liverpool v Brighton & Hove Albion - A Quick Liverpool Perspective

30 Oct 2026 17:45:43
Too much emphasis is put on formations.

Winning your 1-2-1 battles is just as important.

Everyone winning their individual battles overcomes a poor formation.

Everyone losing their individual battles nullifies a good formation.

Who won their individual battles the other night.

Im a big DM fan but the changes came way too late.

We can dwell on the negatives or say we played at the hardest/second hardest away ground and never lost ground on the team above us.

30 Oct 2026 18:02:42
Performances need to improve considerably and Del needs to start finding a better balance with his formations or this season will inevitably be the same as recent years.

In my eyes Wednesday night was extremely concerning, we were fortunate to even get a draw.

30 Oct 2026 18:20:22
How did you get on with your error code phone problem Athole?

30 Oct 2026 18:36:05
I don't agree 4L, better teams than current have played worse Hearts teams at Tynecastle, a ground I think is unique and really like, and had a hard time.

We are a young and new side, there was always going to be backward steps in their development. We cannot attract the quality of player that we can expect to charge full steam with no setbacks imo.

I also think we have a good squad this year, unlike previous seasons. For me, we are actually building for the future this time around and I am hopeful the cycle of chaos and rebuilding has ended this summer.

It's not to say we win(title) but I feel we are better placed to challenge, like we should have been since 55, so am not concerned about going backwards to previous seasons although with all the scar tissue I understand where your coming from.

30 Oct 2026 19:05:39
Cool Tommy I get some fans won't see it that way however that's the way I look at it. I agree Tynecastle is always a tough place to go however the performance we put in on Wednesday against the worst Hearts team in recent years is simply unacceptable.

Warning signs have been there against Dundee Utd, Dundee and St Johnstone. The 2 man midfield is not working for us and if Del persists with it we are going to see more of the same results as teams know how to play us, our weaknesses and where the gaps will be.

30 Oct 2026 19:10:46
The foramtion and set up dictate the 1-2-1 battles so different set ups will have differnt match ups, once matched though I agree that's how you win most gmaes. The balance of the team was wrong for the Hearts game, we sacrisfed the middle of the park in favour of 2 up front and lost compelte control of the game.

Anyone could see Hearts getting a foothold and goals were ineviteable. Immediate steps, Naderi off, Gassam off, Chukwuani on, Bouani on. Minsu on the left. If we had started like that we would prob not had the yellow cards which were for despearte defending. ANo is easy to look back but we've had previous warning in games.

30 Oct 2026 22:13:20
TC - I've had to come on using an incognito search via Google.

Don't know what's happened. I've been getting a liot of random junk mails recently and I turned off some permissions.

No idea if that's what's caused it.

30 Oct 2026 22:20:10
Athole try clearing your cookies and data history mate or even search history,

Maybe you're memory is full or you've picked up a bug. Worth a shot.

30 Oct 2026 22:38:56
I had a similar problem a few weeks back and did exactly what Stevie-G-New has suggested, I've not had the problem since.

30 Oct 2026 22:49:34
See at the end of the day, Hearts only had 2 cm's.

30 Oct 2026 23:42:40
I think they had 3 v our 2. Win the ball get it wide to mcpake done the trick. We should have matched that within 15 mins our 4321 wasn't working, they were really a 451, we needed to go 433 to match that with the subs i said. We all could see what going to happen. I stilll feel having sad all that BS that we are still week in midfield, front, wide and defense is good enough in the middle is where we lack and has been for a while now.

Pelase don't mention Barron and Cameron no where near the levels. We need influencial box to box goal scoring mids and ball winners. IMO.

30 Oct 2026 23:58:52
Sorry our 4222 or for 424 wasn't working.

30 Oct 2026 23:59:25
TJBB, Hearts had 2 cm's 4 forwards.
Rangers had 2 cm's 4 forwards, Hearts forwards dropped deeper.

31 Oct 2026 00:11:11
Exaclty Star they won the middle of the pitch and allowed them to spring attacks, get turn overs and win second balls, our balance was all wrong from the get go, only reason we got 2 was our pure quality.

31 Oct 2026 07:37:25
Any formation works well when players playing their position work 100% in battles vs their direct opponent and who work like hell for their team-mates- fairly simple.
If you stroll around the park like its a game that has no meaning then we will get found out. Its proved in the big games ie vs them that we can fight our corner - its when we play the so called also rans that our attitude and work rate stinks and that's where the problem initially stems from.

Along with players who's form has severely dipped and yet still get a jersey can be added to the mix🤔All these issues can be sorted by Del but need done sharpish or another see saw season will be the norm for us.
Drop the slackers and get work-rate up- its not rocket science 👍.

31 Oct 2026 12:17:55
Stevie - thanks bud I'll try that.

31 Oct 2026 12:22:54
Thats worked lads, thanks.

31 Oct 2026 12:50:33
Athole, I'm the least technical person in the world bro, so it wasn't an educated piece of advice, just a wee guess, but glad it worked bro 👍🏻.

31 Oct 2026 12:52:37
Athole, do u remember to close all your tabs when you're done using them?

Leaving tabs open slows down you're downloading speed ability. That's maybe what's happened mate.

Always close your tabs mate, ma mums the worst for it and always causes her problems.

31 Oct 2026 15:12:38
Cheers bud.

30 Oct 2026 16:37:52
Custom Rangers Livery on Gran Turismo 7!

Just a wee bit of fun for the page. Check out the bonnet on this car from GT7 made it Gers themed with the full Rangers top livery sorted out. Sad I know for such an ole fart like me. 😁 What do we think?

30 Oct 2026 16:52:00
Never had u down As a computer geek parlane haha good for u mate.

Wonder how long it would a last n the streets of Glasgow right enough lol.

30 Oct 2026 16:53:54
All I'm getting is a blue box with service unavailable.
It's a nice shade of blue right enough and a very similar colour that's used on this season's fourth kit.
Atoll blue is it's proper name, paying homage to our massive fan base who bide in the Atoll communities in the Pacific and Indian Ocean regions.

30 Oct 2026 17:47:24
Nice car. Don't let Dujon drive 😉.

30 Oct 2026 18:47:58
Probably takes corners better than dan neil 🫡.

30 Oct 2026 18:57:05
Dan Neil doesn't take corners , you should aim your jibe at Minsu or Penrice or Bouanani the guys who do .

30 Oct 2026 19:01:32
Lads, lads, lads just a wee attempt at lightening the vibe around here the last couple of days. Folk arguing, falling out with each other etc, etc. Beginning to think I was on the Man United site instead of the glorious Teddy Bears one.

30 Oct 2026 19:08:55
Very good, Laudrup 😂

Fourlads, hope you didn't let Mr. Sterling's behind the wheel indiscretion influence your post, that's how trouble starts! 😉 😇.

30 Oct 2026 19:11:14
I like your joke Parlane. That's what it's all about. Too much seriousness and people taking offence to opinions. Crazy man.

30 Oct 2026 19:20:17
100% FL 👍
Can't disagree - well, I could I suppose, but that would just be like our worst ever Champions League group stage performance.

30 Oct 2026 19:20:40
Can anyone remember a guy that lived in Benidorm and had an XR3i, folk knew he was a Rangers fan and used to put his car windows in, so he had written in big letters across both sides of his car "kick me if you're a tim!". Was not a square inch on his car that wasn't dented but no more windows put in 😂.

30 Oct 2026 19:46:29
@Alloa,
Ah Benidorm. Remember going to a pub there whilst on holiday many moons ago to watch an Old Firm game and took one of my daughter's along.
I thought I was the bees knees with my brand new Sony Handycam that was the latest thing at the time.

Set it up facing the telly screen eager to have the glorious highlights to watch again and again. Turned out it was O'Neil first game in charge v us. They scored straight away, and gubbed us 6-2 😕 🙈.

30 Oct 2026 19:28:34
Need to get the ed to make a bickering section at the top of the page as there isn't much banter going on.

30 Oct 2026 22:16:24
Call it square-go-square.

31 Oct 2026 12:37:11
Parlane that's bad luck! 😂😂.

30 Oct 2026 15:19:49
It's all too easy to say we didn't play well on Wednesday or that 8 of the team had an off night. My take on it was again we didn't know how to cope with the speed and physical play of heart's.

Why didn't we win any second balls why did we panic when they ran at us. Hearts didn't allow us to play and DM has to ram this home to our player's or we will continue to drop points away from home.

30 Oct 2026 16:27:25
It was always going to be a difficult game. Leaving tyncastle with a point isn't a bad result in my eyes.

30 Oct 2026 16:36:34
For me the thing about the other night is that we haven't played well at any of our away games with the exception of Parkhead. That is probably the biggest worry but a point away to Hearts wasn't that bad a result helped with the fact that lot dropped points too.

30 Oct 2026 17:06:49
The end result might have been bearable, but the performance was abysmally inept. The manager must take Manny out of the firing line ASAP for the sake of both the player and the team, and everyone except the manager seems to realise that the best Gassama will ever be is as an impact sub, and probably behind Curtis for that job too.

30 Oct 2026 18:49:44
The worry the other night was McInnes watching that and still sent Gassama out for the second half.

30 Oct 2026 19:00:32
I would have said 9 out of the 11 didn't play well but its all okay , it was all Fernandez fault . Not Minsus who sold the second goal or Sterlings who missed a header I'm confident I would have scored.

30 Oct 2026 23:09:58
Gassama would have been told at half time he didn't have long, he was off just after the 50th minute.
