Why whenever some1 posts a rumour there shot down or ridiculed by many on this site. It's a rumours page for fans no need to be so aggressive to some of our own.



16 Aug 2020 19:43:02
It’s the same when you have a bad opinion of a player everyone jumps on you and tells you your not supporting rangers unless your positive aye sound barker is world class and everything he does is 10/ 10 can’t be negative guys.



16 Aug 2020 19:53:43
Can anyone explain to me how Brandon barker is a Rangers player? A still think we need 2 wingers, people who are not afraid to really go for it, our centre midfielders don’t contribute anywhere near enough goals or assists it’s the same story as last season.



16 Aug 2020 20:05:49
Deano it’s an easy answer because SG says so.



16 Aug 2020 20:23:59
Young Docherty would get 7-10 goals a season If a regular in our midfield.



16 Aug 2020 21:31:18
Not sure there's many on here ever claimed that about Barker hends22?🤔.



16 Aug 2020 22:46:02
Never claimed there was mrgrumpy think you’ve missed the point.



16 Aug 2020 22:48:22
Barker has couple good runs in a friendly that means he should play! Prefer to see jones or Murphy getting a chance before them.



16 Aug 2020 23:20:30
After watching today’s game I would rather have had jordon Jones come off the bench and really take players on than barker and honestly have no idea why Sg took off arfield instead of Kamara, we were passing side to side then with the occasional cross but never really took the ball past Any1 for most the game, the defence was able to cope with most of livi’s few attacks, felt Helander struggled a wee bit with the physicality of the boy up front for them. But we looked very much like last season when we couldn’t break teams down. I am on the fence with morales as without him I didn’t see too much from Roofe and itten but he also annoys me hitting random shots in the build up and just bouncing the ball off defenders. Yes 1 in 10 or so go in but there’s normally a better option than attempting shots with your back to goal.



16 Aug 2020 23:38:29
Jones Murphy and barker not good enough last season we had ojo to add to that lot offt
If we are losing or drawing and need a goal A real a game changer can anyone say They get Excited with one of those lot coming on? We need at least one quality winger same standerd as Kent but obviously that costs money.
I know Itten and Roofe are not fully fit and settled yet but at least when they come on I had some confidence/ excitement that something could change
it was not to be today but that’s how we should feel after any attacking substitution unfortunately I don’t get that with barker Murphy or Jones I personally think they are not good enough.



17 Aug 2020 06:14:28
Kamara strolled the game, no reason to take him off. The finger should be pointed at Gerrard for his inept tactics. Players are not to blame for sideways passing, this was caused by poor tactics. 👍.



17 Aug 2020 07:11:19
Why are we playing a back four and two holding midfielders against a team we have 80% posession that's 7 out of 11 defending?



17 Aug 2020 08:04:34
A good manager uses what they have, I think JJ has more than enough to contribute in spfl games. Can't always just throw money at players, sometimes need to use what's there.



17 Aug 2020 08:50:47
To be fair to barker he didn’t do any worse than Hagi whom he replaced. i think we were too slow in possession lacking creativity. Could have taken Kamara or jack off and added a forward. Morelos instead of coming so deep at times coin have been dragging defenders left and right creating space for Kent, Arfield Hagi etc to get through.



17 Aug 2020 09:22:34
Barisic and Tav are attacking full backs. When Tav goes forward, jack slots in to cover for him. Kamara does the same for barisic.



17 Aug 2020 11:53:24
Hahahaha! Sideways passes are the managers fault🤔
Aye no bother Mr Thumbs Up. So when Kamara decided to break forward near the end that was all down to the manager then🤔
If our players are unable to do things off their own back then they don’t deserve to be at Rangers. 👎.



17 Aug 2020 13:31:22
Of course it is, morelos is the player central and he's surrounded so we go sideways or backwards because our tactics and set up is all wrong. Gerrard's fault. 😉👍.



17 Aug 2020 16:57:25
Jamie Murphy should be involved, he would be for more effective than Barker, Hagi, Arfield and before we get the usual their different position nonsense Kent can play left or through the middle and cover any of these positions.



17 Aug 2020 17:19:00
6 counties according to sky player map our most forward player was barisic, hence reason kamara plays to cover him.
I find it so difficult to work out how u don’t understand the basics.



17 Aug 2020 18:44:27
John I understand the basics, but I agree with 6counties 2 defensive mids aren’t essential plenty of very good teams operate with one defensive midfielder. The bottom line is we need more creativity and Jack and Kamara can’t play a 50-60 yard pass, they work hard especially off the ball but too many sideways pass give teams so much times to get organised witch makes it harder to break them down.



17 Aug 2020 20:16:01
Highland bear yes u r right but these teams don’t have their full backs in front of the wingers the way we do
Also tell me ho u play a fifty sixty yard pass against a livi team with 11 in their half.



17 Aug 2020 20:49:57
I understand where you’re coming from John but they also don’t dominate the ball like we do, 80% is a hell of a lot of possession and to not be able to score a single goal with stats like that tells me there’s something wrong, the fact that we pack the midfield and dominate possession means the only thing that so called lesser teams can do is sit in and play on the counter, and yes that does make it difficult to make defence splitting 50-60 yard passes but it’s all relative. If you give up a little space in the middle of the park and encourage teams to come at you a little it inevitably creates spaces in behind, we are a far superior team to most teams in the league it’s not all about clean sheets we should invite teams to have a go and then blow them away! Just my opinion but that game yesterday just made me feel like nothing has changed from last year. 🤷🏽‍♂️.



16 Aug 2020 15:07:10
Apparently Dykes will not play for Livi today as they have accepted a £2 million bid from QPR.



16 Aug 2020 16:05:33
SGL was right that Dykes was signing for rangers lol just that’s the wrong rangers.



16 Aug 2020 10:56:25
Could Scott Allan becoming to ibrox as part or the Ross McCrorie deal.



16 Aug 2020 11:37:36
Hope not punter👍.



16 Aug 2020 12:02:30
Not a hope in hell punter. Why would u accept a poorer player.



16 Aug 2020 12:32:18
A hibs sub? Get a grip man.



16 Aug 2020 12:38:58
I hope not, Scott Allen came on as a sub for Hibs yesterday and to me he looked overweight,



16 Aug 2020 12:50:30
Just naw.



16 Aug 2020 13:10:06
Absolutely not, overweight watered who had his chance with us, wouldn’t touch him with a barge pole unless it was swinging it at him, complete dick.



16 Aug 2020 13:10:56
What sort of price do people on here think we will get for mccrorie or Docherty.



16 Aug 2020 13:24:31
Sorry about the print mistakes lads, I meant Allen is an overweight waster and I wouldn’t touch him with a barge pole unless I was swinging it at him, but I’m sure my sentiments are echoed around the proper rangers fans thank you.



16 Aug 2020 13:44:44
Was watching myself and wondered when that question might pop up.
Didn't look great when he came on and he isn't first pick, so not sure he'd even make our bench.
Shame, as he definitely had something about him but not now.



16 Aug 2020 13:46:08
John 25 I’d say 600k to a million with add ins sell on for the doc and 500k with similar deal for mcrorie.



16 Aug 2020 13:49:56
Jetmayfair why would you be watching
Those trash.



16 Aug 2020 13:58:48
Personally I wouldn’t sell him to hibs at all, they were very clear that when we were looking at Scott Allan they would not do business with us. For me that works both ways especially when there is definitely a high potential with Mccrorie. I do think for Mccrorie though if he wants to develop he will have to move on to get game time.



16 Aug 2020 14:06:50
Had his chance to join rangers would have been 10 games on his c. v and released his attitude seems terrible and wouldn’t make a match day squad.



16 Aug 2020 15:42:15
Gerrard likes allan hopefully is part of deal.



16 Aug 2020 15:50:09
Bathgate that wou, d be excellent business, I hope u r right.



16 Aug 2020 15:55:30
John 25 that’s just what I’d ask for but if mcrorie goes to Hibs I doubt they could afford that.



16 Aug 2020 16:01:46
I thought Hibs were skint. I do not think they can afford McCrorie.



16 Aug 2020 16:25:50
Hibs being skint is paper talk, they just wanted a clear out. I’m hearing 350 for Ross.
Wonder if Stewart or Murphy will end up at livi, would be good bus for gers.



16 Aug 2020 02:50:18
My cousin played at Wednesday with Jacob Murphy says there where talks today about it at Wednesdays training that he is coming on loan, a don't usually comment on this page but heard off my cousin thought I would share it, and before a get age yet cousins uncles aunty telt you, it's 100% true talks about a loan and he would love to come to Rangers Ps Murphy wasn't at training with wedensday just talks within the camp that he is meant to be heading up on loan.



16 Aug 2020 08:30:24
Awful fake rumour! Why would he be at training for Wednesday? The season Is over therefore his loan would be over now hence clubs like us are interested. He is a Newcastle player so would he not be back training with them now?



16 Aug 2020 08:50:27
Thought that myself deano. Surely he is back at parent club.



16 Aug 2020 10:25:41
Heard from my cousin. more like read online.



16 Aug 2020 11:25:56
Wonder if anyone talking about it just happened to see the HITC article 🤔.



16 Aug 2020 12:34:16
Naw he didnae.



16 Aug 2020 12:59:58
This seems to be picking up traction, more sources reporting it.



16 Aug 2020 13:02:22
If you read my comment above a says ps he wasn’t at training it was just talk between the players at training and they heard he was joining rangers on loan, a seen it late last night in the paper and text my cousin straight away, also knew everything that was going on with Steven fletcher and nick Hammond due to my cousin but believe what you like, always get people who think they know best, when he joins on loan al be on here to get all the smart arses back 👍.



16 Aug 2020 14:25:43
A hope it’s true scotty1972, a think he would be a really good signing, and he’s only 24 aswel good age, remeber the situation with that rat Scott Sinclair! A think Murphy situation is similar can’t get a game for a top club down south really good player think he would tear it up in this league.



16 Aug 2020 16:02:27
I read that in news now but i did hear from a friend down south that we have been keeping tabs on him and have had him looked at. I was lead to believe it was to sign in January on bosman. Just now I think it will possibly only be a sitting midfielder unless we move players on. Sitting midfielder could be similar deal to hagi with loan to buy.



15 Aug 2020 22:55:58
Rangers newsnow article saying we are interested in jacob Murphy winger tho it’s from the daily celtic.



16 Aug 2020 00:35:13
Jacob Murphy a good player.



16 Aug 2020 01:46:23
Talk about a flyer! Complete guesswork from the poorest of sources about an utter flop of a player. Typical of the mince they try to pass off as 'in the know' stories.



16 Aug 2020 07:25:08
The convenanter when have I said I am in the know? I have told you before I aren’t in the know also told you I know one of the rangers coaches but not spoke to him in a while silly post.



16 Aug 2020 09:57:31
The covenanter as usual you running every rumour down. When are you going to provide a rumour.



16 Aug 2020 11:16:59
To be fair not one rumour from a coach has ever came true on here😂👍.



16 Aug 2020 12:50:58
Very true coldo.



16 Aug 2020 14:45:19
KJA9, steady on, there, I did not say you were 'in the know' I said these sources portray themselves as in the know, not you.



16 Aug 2020 14:49:38
6counties, I've provided quite a few rumours I've heard over the years. Of them all, I've been correct just once, so I've got about a 5% success rate, which is about average on here. I hear talk at Ibrox, I hear from former colleagues, but I've not posted a rumour lately because I haven't heard any. I do hope this puts your fevered mind at rest.



16 Aug 2020 18:36:14
Due to the result today against Livingston and we had 2 main players out we should have still won and got all 3 points today, and SG should and needs to bring in another striker as there's talk about Terem moffi but i would love to see marik come in.
