Heard from a mate that serge atakayi has been promised some first team action in the next 5-10 games hopefully this is true as looks like one of our biggest and promising talents.



24 Nov 2016 19:56:46
Anybody think we should bring back mo edu and bring in ben arfa?



24 Nov 2016 21:15:23
Ben arfa plays for PSG no chance.



24 Nov 2016 21:24:09
Don't think the manager would promise any kid game time but I have been told that they are quite excited about this boy.



25 Nov 2016 10:55:18
Before these boys play 1st team football they need to train with the 1st team squad which as far as i'm aware is not the case at present so can't see any breakthroughs soon unfortunately.



26 Nov 2016 08:00:11
Edu was mince first time around so why on earth bring him back now.



23 Nov 2016 09:02:13
Seeing as this is a rumour site I thought I would share a rumour with you all! I have heard that the Main Stand is riddled with asbestos and they cannot access/ maintain the heating pipes without removing the asbestos first. This could cost millions, but unless done, parts of the Main Stand could be closed in 2017 as the safety certificates will not be signed off. This is from a pal of mine who works with asbestos. Hope it's just a rumour, but thought I would share.



23 Nov 2016 11:01:12
Sure this was a favourite rumour on the other mobs site. AGM coming up, maybe someone will ask the question.



23 Nov 2016 12:03:06
It's a known fact Ibrox has Asbestos in it, which their is nothing wrong with. However if it was an issue that things couldn't have maintenance done due to the asbestos it would have been highlighted at some point in the last 16 years.



23 Nov 2016 12:28:55
Bigad how have they been accessing/ maintaining the pipes up until now this is another filed under bs.



23 Nov 2016 13:32:44
In response to Bigar, I have also heard a similar story regarding the roofs at ibrox. I have also heard that Glasgow City Council have been out to carry out an inspection, what the outcome was I don't know. So there may be some truth in this.



23 Nov 2016 15:24:38
Asbestos is not an issue. We've just had it removed from our Church. Two options . if you can afford to, remove it completely. If not, use tradesmen who are trained and qualified to work in an area where there is asbestos. (i. e. with breathing masks, etc) .

Just another rumour from the dark side who are gutted that we haven't gone away!



23 Nov 2016 22:37:05
Guys I have worked with asbestos and it can stay in place and be coated with a special rubber paint
Its only dangerous when its broken and gives off dust particles.
We boxed in an old asbestos garage roof last summer without any problems as we did not disturb the sheets.



23 Nov 2016 22:56:27
I can assure you its not that simple Stuart.



24 Nov 2016 09:58:19
Asbestos is only an issue if broken, I work with removal and management of asbestos daily. U will find asbestos in any plant room or pipework lagging of a building that age so totally not a problem, as long as it can be managed safely there is no need for removal.

As for the roof! That's not asbestos and y would Glasgow city council be checking it out? It's not a council building.

Crock of scaremongering nonsense.



24 Nov 2016 10:05:01
I don't know anything about asbestos, just passing on what I've been told. thebear82, I hope it is bs.



24 Nov 2016 10:55:00
Very much is BS, Asbestos is far more common than you think. it's also a lot more containable than people think. This is a bs story no doubt started by the darkside.



26 Nov 2016 09:36:43
Asbestos is only harmaful once disturbed. easy option is put in new pipes and use alternative route. easy peasy people. cost peanuts.



28 Nov 2016 22:46:34
Many, perhaps all, insurance companies will pay a chunk of asbestos removal as it is the cheaper of all of the options eg allowing it to downgrade to a dangerous state or the cost allowing so white van chancer to say they can do it, so I think the cost is manageable unless we has stinted on the insurance premiums!



23 Nov 2016 02:59:40
Been told by a board member that there WONT b any money spent in Jan! Gutted as I was really hoping we could strengthen! Thoughts bears?



23 Nov 2016 06:36:38
After much thought the last few months, I am pleasantly surprised. We do not have the money why spend it and end up in division 4? Focus on investing in youth build upwards, the only time we should begin to spend money is if 10 in a row is too close for call. King will not spend upwards of 2 Million on a player anyway, we will get a few loans, come second and see what happens next years. We welcome the chase!



23 Nov 2016 08:37:46
Bringing our own players through is definitely the way forward. Unfortunately, most supporters want instant success. Any money spent on players has to be with a view to selling them on for good profit. Sometimes you have to spend £2m on a player in the belief he will be worth 3 or 4 times that a couple of seasons later. We did this a few times with the likes of Boumsong and Cuellar. Celtic have managed to achieve this lately. These players use our clubs as a stepping stone to move to a big club.



23 Nov 2016 11:39:16
Lol good to see board members sharing imformation like that. Who ever the "board member" is he's a header.



23 Nov 2016 17:18:29
What are the chances someone says no money will be spent, the same day we're linked with a move for Matty Taylor.

There will be money spent in January whether fans think it should be or not.

Money was spent to secure the Championship last January. Money will be spent to secure 2nd place and Europe this season, guaranteed.



24 Nov 2016 14:03:16
Haha told by a board member classic.



26 Nov 2016 00:00:14
Why on earth would anyone admit that we had money to spend and alert teams where we might have an interest in one of their players. Notwithstanding this I would rather we spent January finding some better quality players that we can sign on pre contracts.

If the current lot can't finish second then they really shouldn't be at Ibrox!
