21 Jun 2016 21:49:38
Mark Warburton confident of 3 more signings by the end of the week. I'd imagine Krancjar, Mariappa and either Vaughan or Bradshaw. Says he thinks we need 4 players in. Add a goalkeeper, (McGovern perhaps) to this and I'm absolutely delighted with the way the squad is shaping up.



21 Jun 2016 22:19:56
So that's now 74 players you are signing at a cost of £96m that's great pmsfl.



21 Jun 2016 22:37:17
What happened to the Will Grigg rumour? If prefer to see him or Bradshaw to James Vaughan.

Happy with Windass, Crooks, Rossiter, Barton, Hill and the defender from Jamaica. Who is our cover for Wallace?



21 Jun 2016 23:05:41
I think hodson has been linked and can play both fullback positions. 3 close and 4 wanted but that was on top of kranjkar, so i'd say mariapa hodson and a st. Not sure about vaughan and bradshaws went quiet, think it might be a surprise maybe on loan and mcgovern after the euros.



21 Jun 2016 23:12:05
If Mariappa comes in I'm sure he can play across the whole back four if needed.



21 Jun 2016 23:08:05
Oh and glory hibs you obviously no nothing because if we signed all them plus what we have signed under mw so far itl be less than 2.5mill. Not bad eh?



21 Jun 2016 23:22:03
Glorhibs are you actually joking what's glorious about hibs bad enough the unwashed from East end on here now you's are crawling about back under yer rock.



21 Jun 2016 23:28:32
Haliday can play left back Teddy.



22 Jun 2016 00:26:10
Not enough height in the back line.



22 Jun 2016 01:30:11
Halliday is our cover at left back.



22 Jun 2016 00:27:56
Hibs boy who you signed? Neil Lennon? Absolutely brilliant to notch challenging for the premiership next year when Cummings and mcginn leave and Lennon gets found out to be a rubbish manager.



22 Jun 2016 01:53:57
Clint Hill also plays CB, LCB in a back 3, or LB. He will be our cover. And IF we sign Mariappa, he will be cover for right back as well!



22 Jun 2016 09:16:13
74 players for 96 million! sounds as if our Leith counterpart has got nothing to look at on his own clubs page so has to come on to our page and spout constant drivel!



22 Jun 2016 09:27:22
Wearerangers makes a very good point. Height in our back line is a major issue. We couldn't defend properly against high balls last season and now we are signing 5'10 centre backs? I am happy with the way things are going just now with regards to recruitment but this deffinelty has me questioning MW defensive side of his tactics.



21 Jun 2016 14:08:25
Any updates on Steven Taylor? If we got Mariappa i don't think we'd need him but iv heard nothing at all about him.



21 Jun 2016 16:04:49
Attempting to sign marriapa suggests Taylor will be going to Turkey. Can't imagine we could afford both.



21 Jun 2016 19:28:57
I would prefer Marriapa!



22 Jun 2016 09:16:55
Defo Mariappa for me, no brainer.



21 Jun 2016 10:48:37
Is there any update on Esteban Alvarado? I know we were linked to him but it has went very quiet since then?



21 Jun 2016 11:25:20
Same with the boy Knox from livi!



21 Jun 2016 11:33:59
Was going to ask the same question. the papers where talking as if a deal was just about done and that was few weeks ago.



21 Jun 2016 12:02:19
Would rather go for a European keeper, Matus Kozicak of Slovenia. Been impressive during euro 2016, also market value only 1 million compared to Alverado who's 1.5 mil.



21 Jun 2016 12:27:03
Matus Kozicak plays for Slovakia. Slovenia aren't even in the Euros.



21 Jun 2016 12:30:27
Scotman, trabzonspor are doing a clear out and aren't looking for market price. They'd accept £1mil or less. Also Matus is 32 Alvarado is 27, I'd prefer the 27 year old to be honest atleast it adds value. after 2 years Matus would be more or less worthless, however alvarado could be sold for 2/ 3 million as an experienced, half decent goalkeeper. providing he performs.



21 Jun 2016 13:02:56
Swedishranger my mistake.
Onlyshowaround, your last 3 words in your post says it all. I'm looking at performance stats MK 35games,27goals letin,17 shut outs. EA 16 games,29goals letin, 5 shut out. I know who I'd rather have in goal. IMO.



21 Jun 2016 13:59:14
Scotman, quality of league though? Matus plays in the Czech Republic, EA plays in the Turkish Super league, Fenerbache, Galatasaray, Besiktas. a lot of decent teams are in there, I would say that EA has it much harder than Matus. IMO quality of the league needs to be taken into account.



21 Jun 2016 16:06:35
How about Bentley who we have been linked with. He's out of contract which fits current pattern, can't see us spending anything close to the money mentioned for other keepers.



21 Jun 2016 18:34:35
Luigi, quite a few Championship sides want him, not to mention Burnley amd Bournemouth.



21 Jun 2016 19:45:25
to be fair burnley wanted barton as well.



21 Jun 2016 20:52:28
Tjrfc, slightly different. Joey has made his money. Bentley is a young lad looking at being no1 for England. If he goes to Burnley and gets the no1 shirt there after a short time bigger teams will come sniffing.



22 Jun 2016 09:20:15
He won't be no 1 at Burnley tho, they have Heaton don't they who is an England squad member, whereas at Rangers the likelihood he would be no 1 with a potential big move to EPL in a few years for a tidy profit.



21 Jun 2016 10:07:32
Any updates on a Gk and forward last 2 pieces to the puzzle I reckon.



21 Jun 2016 11:26:19
I agree. Then all we need to do is tie MW and DW to long term deals. 👍🏻.



21 Jun 2016 15:33:32
Probably getting Cammy Bell off the wage bill then will sign another keeper, IMO.

Don't know about another striker, confident MW DW and FMcP will get something sorted though.



21 Jun 2016 15:53:23
What about a central defender?



21 Jun 2016 16:09:05
I heard from a guy at my work that MW has been meeting with victor Valdes in Belgium and the coaching badge stuff was all just to take attention away from this deal also guy at my work is a relative of Ryan Hardie.



21 Jun 2016 10:17:32
I can guarantee it will be Michael McGovern, he will cost nothing, so much for spending to keep up with septic, what's happened to the season ticket money from last season and this season, Dave King has no money.



21 Jun 2016 19:26:04
Stevan Potter, there's pictures on official websites with Warburton holding up his certificates.

Ango, how are we not paying? Joey Barton won't exactly be turning up weekly for a penny wage and neither will Hill, Kranjcar (if he comes) , Rossiter also. Not to mention the transfer window isn't even finished yet.



21 Jun 2016 10:03:18
The Sun clamming that Cammy Bell will sign for Dundee Utd today but doesn't say anything about the transfer fee . I'm happy to see the back of him but I'm not a fan of letting players go like we did with Darren McGregor for free to clubs that hate us or pure and simply will not sell players to us (Dundee Utd and Hibs) Does anyone know if there was a fee and if so how much?



21 Jun 2016 10:16:09
Cammy Bells contract has expired. We would not be be able to command a transfer fee.



21 Jun 2016 10:18:25
Thanks Bluerangers that answers my question more wages freed up.



21 Jun 2016 10:26:49
Doesn't his contract have 1 more year.



21 Jun 2016 10:30:13
The Sun clamming Bell has a year left on his contract?



21 Jun 2016 11:11:57
I'm sure he has a year left and yes, I agree, we should not do business with either feeder club.



21 Jun 2016 11:32:54
I don't think so either. I remember a year ago Hibs refused to sell to us even after there own player handing in a transfer request after we made a bid. Never do business with either of these clubs and never allow them to take players for free like we did McGregor.



21 Jun 2016 12:48:04
Bell has 1 year left on contract but we have released from contract early. Assume we would pay him something to leave early.



21 Jun 2016 13:52:16
My Mistake, bell does have a year left on his contract. In that case we should demand a fee and if we don't get one, he can sit on the bench. Who knows what wages he is on though, i would imagine he will recieve a 20% rise for us getting back into the SPL and he is probably on about 6k a week at the moment, judging on the other daft contracts Leech and Lambias organised with other dud players. So we may be forced to let him walk. I would offer him plus 200K to Hibs in a swap deal for Cummings.



21 Jun 2016 13:57:15
should never help any1 of those clubs but I honestly never rated the guy as a good keeper so I understand if we wanted rid of him I think wes will become better and better the guy is only 25 and I can't see warburton replacing him. I hope we can get another great keeper like the ones we are used to but don't think there are any out there that we can afford.



21 Jun 2016 14:32:43
I disagree, why shouldn't we offload unwanted players? Also could this mean Mcgovern coming in?



21 Jun 2016 16:08:22
Based on his performances for us I don't think we are doing Dundee utd a favour- quite the opposite, his butterfingers will keep them in championship for years to come.



21 Jun 2016 19:33:49
Transfer window isn't open! Thought it opened on 1st July? Obviously different story for free agents but Bell is not free.



22 Jun 2016 09:23:14
I also agree we should be doing no business with either Hibs or scumdee utd, let them act as feeder clubs to selic and take in their many many many rejects.



20 Jun 2016 22:04:29
I've just seen J Greig and Aluko in City Centre across from Bierre Halle.



21 Jun 2016 10:16:39
Did ye aye.



21 Jun 2016 10:37:19
See now that's just a lie forza, I'm currently at the top of Olympus Mons having lunch with the pair of them. You must be mistaken.



21 Jun 2016 10:42:33
Thats strange as i just seen greig and messi in mcdonalds eating a happy meal.



21 Jun 2016 12:20:44
Is that near the petrol station.



21 Jun 2016 12:54:03
Pogba is on his way too.



21 Jun 2016 13:58:50
Ronaldo just popped your maws did u see him bra.



21 Jun 2016 09:42:25
Anybody have any information regarding Harry Forrester's injury and if he'll fly to the US? I notice he's not back training but would be good to have him fit for the start of the season.



21 Jun 2016 09:20:24
Niko to have medical tomorrow.
Ssn.



21 Jun 2016 01:34:07
Good evening fellow bears totally off subject but new signing hill and Lee Wallace have been pictured in the last 2 days signing contracts with the new strip in hand? What's the score is it last season's strip or this new 1 we will be wearing?



21 Jun 2016 06:16:24
Evening Time reporting Problems with the new strip and won't be in the rangers store. 4p out of every pound that's all Rangers get its a joke! Well sad to say it but the wee boy and myself won't be buying the new strip!



21 Jun 2016 06:27:10
Hello baillie42,I posted on here several months ago that it would be a complete blackout where the new rangers puma kit was concerned, like a good few other bears this is what we'd heard from some prominent sources, the glasgow evening times is now reporting this this indeed is now the case that the players will be wearing the new kit this season but the supporters won't be able to buy it, this is due to the politics that still engulfs our great club and the continual fight between the rangers board of directors and mike ashley, as we all know we've cut all ties from sports direct and they can't sell any merchandise with our very famous trademark badge, I hope something can be sorted out quickly so we can all get back to buying our famous replica jerseys.



21 Jun 2016 09:47:07
Supposedly you can buy it directly from puma for 60 quid, it's definately a weird one.



21 Jun 2016 10:41:47
Cheers for replying didn't know what was happening. just think the new strips are quality looking but wouldn't give sports direct a penny personally just my own opinion. It's a shame going on holiday next week and would have been great to have been walking about Spain showing the famous red white and blue.



21 Jun 2016 12:56:55
Wear an old strip, with pride. (And enjoy the sun)



21 Jun 2016 16:44:26
Yes will do luigi (my word you sound like my Mrs haha) cheers.



21 Jun 2016 09:44:50

That's the article - I was wondering if Rangers may have a go at manufacturing their own jerseys, a bit similar to what Manchester United did in 2009/ 10.

Supporters took the stance over either buying old kits or wearing Newton Heath colours.

Idea is Bit of the wall I know - but if old/ retro kits were made available might be an idea.
