What's the deal with Andy firth? I thought he was brought in short term the second half of season, has he signed permanent contract now?



29 Jun 2019 04:52:29
Firth signed 18 month deal when he joined don't know you got your info from but mine is from Rangers Official website.



29 Jun 2019 11:43:37
Just in my mind he was stop gap as Alnwick was on loan. Strange one that we still have 4 senior keepers.



29 Jun 2019 13:06:10
It’s also strange that he has a 12 year olds head on a mans body.



29 Jun 2019 13:33:58
Blue 89 .



29 Jun 2019 19:26:28
I see two goalkeepers moving on permanently, Mcgregor, fods, Alnwick and firth all have twelve months left on deal.
Would like to see Mcgregor extended plus think mccrorie Robby will go on l.



30 Jun 2019 14:28:44
Shagger obv No1 has 12 Months left but no need to extend contract, he will no doubt be happy to sign 12 Month deal each season until he decides to retire.
Either Fod or Alnwick will move on in this window. Fod is Gerrards 2nd choice despite it initially being Alnwick, club more likely to get a fee for Fod though it probably depends on if he wants to get 1st team football or stay and battle it out with McGregor.
I think Firth will he kept as a no 3 as he is on low wages just to ensure we have a back up if Mcgregor gets injured. McCrorie is highly rated as a future replacement for AM but at this stage looks likely to be loaned out again.



30 Jun 2019 21:33:59
John25 I see us having 2 new keepers fighting for no1 Jersey after next season and all 4 current keepers going 2 just now fod and alnwick probably then Firth and McGregor at end of season/ contract.



01 Jul 2019 07:37:04
Could be right bellshill, I think Mcgregor on last years form deserves another twelve months.



28 Jun 2019 18:10:00
Just read an article from Football Insider saying that Lille want Morelos if they sell Pepe. And apparently we are only demanding 10M+. that + better be another 10M on top! Be shocking if he goes for 10M.



28 Jun 2019 19:30:48
Don’t believe that price tag for a minute. We can get 20 million for him easily if teams aren’t willing to pay that then he stays at Rangers simple.



28 Jun 2019 19:34:29
I think 10 million is a fair amount, I’d sell for that plus some add ons, 10-20% of his next transfer fee.



28 Jun 2019 20:09:54
We are never going to get 20 million for Morelos. We will get around 10 plus add-ons.



28 Jun 2019 20:17:48
There is no chance we will get 20mil for him. I reckon 13-15mil mark with a 10% sell on and he'll be gone. I'd love anything close to 20mil but I can't see it.



28 Jun 2019 20:32:30
£10 million? Seems ambitious.



28 Jun 2019 20:34:29
Why do people actually believe things that they read on click bait sites such as ‘football insider’! I guarantee the people that write on such sites no absolutely nothing about the transfer dealings of Rangers (or probably any other clubs for that matter) .



28 Jun 2019 20:56:49
Rangers already rejected bids from clubs in China last year at 10 and 11 million how you can value him at that is a disgrace. Sick of getting no money for players when we move them on. Rangers have valued him at 20 million. 17 to 18 million minimum.



28 Jun 2019 21:10:27
£15M and he’s gone, it much interest so far but goalscoring strikers are a rare commodity and a premium must be paid, I’d rather he stayed another year and lead the line but if he goes it’s good money that we should replace with 2 starters minimum.



28 Jun 2019 21:21:58
All we can say for sure it he's worth at least 5 million and no more that 50 million, he's not up for sale and nobody is actively bidding for him as far as we know. So let's get behind him, hope he kicks on, no red cards, ups his game, scores loads and sells for whatever when the time comes. If he does that, particularly against the upper tier teams then there is no reason, based on past SPL figures, the guy can't go for around 30 million but I must add the guy has to show discipline and scoring ability at the highest level for Rangers not just the accies. He is only 23, look at his record over different leagues, its undeniable. For anybody that's forgotten look at the SPL montage of his goals and you will see the stiker we have, left foot, right foot, head, long range, flicks. he's got 3, 4 or 5 years to develop into his prime. He will be our Suarez but better. IMO LOL.



28 Jun 2019 21:45:01
some of the posts on here honestly

10m for fredo but scotland’s 2nd best LB is ‘worth’ 25m

i’ll crack the jokes.



28 Jun 2019 21:56:36
See some comments on here if Morelos isn’t worth 10m then how do some of the same people rate Kent at 12m it’s utterly laughable! And Celtic won’t sell KT for less than £25m we’re allowing people to dictate the prices to us it’s starting to get on my nerves now rumour has it we’re considering a 8m offer from Bournemouth for Tavernier if he goes to the PL we should be asking for on less than 12-15m they have all the money make them pay.



28 Jun 2019 22:38:43
Highland Bear you say that then justify allowing Tav to leave for that? Surely he’s worth £20m after being top assists in league for 2 consecutive seasons who’s captained a huge club, played in Europe and not conceded 5,6 or 7 like Tierney has.



28 Jun 2019 22:39:48
Island Celt coming from you That’s Rich,
You want 25 million for a left back who’s only played in Scotland
Plus there’s some idiots claiming he’s better that Andrew
Robertson .



29 Jun 2019 00:01:33
Theglasgowranger I don’t think Tierney is worth 10m never mind 25m but big clubs are looking at him, not so big clubs looking at Tavernier I’d love him to stay btw but if we are listening to offers for him then I’d be looking for 12-15m minimum but I also think that realistic, 20-25m isn’t.



29 Jun 2019 06:03:37
Can't see many teams going for him after that end to the season, keep him another year and if he sorts that attitude out we might get the money we all think he's worth.



29 Jun 2019 07:28:40
Alfredo is going NOWHERE I think a bid of 15m+ will start to turn Gerrards head If nothing comes in like that then its BAU This is a big IF now If we win the league and he continues the same scoring spree as last year with also an improved discipline the boy will easily go for 20m+ So it would definitely be worth holding on to him this year unless the proper offer comes in

The only boy I can see going this year is James Tavernier Yet again he is a pivotal part of our Season and I'd rather not see him go! However, at 17 goals and over 10 assists from right back Incredible stuff! We will see this summer but I reckon a bid of 15m will prise him away!



29 Jun 2019 08:57:29
Highland bear I don’t think Tav is worth £20m either I’m just saying if clubs are willing to pay £17.5m plus add ons for Tierney then we should value Tav at a similar level.
I think both are only worth £7-10m but if it’s a BPL side who interested that value is literally doubled due to their ridiculous wealth.
The boy from Palace and Sigurdsson from Swansea to Everton both around £50m are 2 examples of this with both probably only worth £15-20m.
Unfortunately for us celtic are better off financially which is why they can afford to negotiate when big money offers come in which allows them to get an extra few million in here and there for players of similar ability.
Hopefully they don’t qualify for Champions league then they will no longer be far better off due to their £54m wage bill and £30m turnover before player sales and Euro competition.



29 Jun 2019 10:34:23
Well according to sutton Tierney bidding should start at 35 mil. The question you need to ask is how much is a 22 year old first team 30 goal striker with caps for colombia worth down south. He would be going for 25 30 mil starting bid minimum. its time for us to stop accepting low fees for our players. If he tries to force a move sit his backside in the reserves till his contract is done. We need to play better offence when selling players. Should be telling teams you want our top striker then you will be paying our price or he stays here. Same goes with tav. Seen figures as little as 8mil starting price should be double if KT is 25 min tav is finished player going forward not the best defensive but good enough.



29 Jun 2019 11:14:12
I've said this on here 'till i'm royal blue in the face. If kieran tierney is valued, playing in the scottish premiership at £25million by celtic, then our captain at rangers james tavernier most definitely should be valued at anything between £10-£15million.
Tav's stats are better than tierney's, FACT! Now i'm not saying for a minute, that tierney isn't a good left back because he most definitely is, but there's no way in valuation, that they're poles apart in transfer fees. Rangers should NOT accept a penny less than £10million,
from any club wishing to buy james tavernier, simple as that, as far as i'm concerned. Tav improved last season on the defensive side of his game, because the rest of his game is superb! Always have been a big fan of his. Could never quite understand some of our supporters and there berating and complete negativety towards our captain!



29 Jun 2019 12:29:18
sites like football insider are awful, pretty sure its just made up bull. Too be honest I hope we keep moralos and Tavernier, certainly for this season.



29 Jun 2019 13:12:42
SGL. You are stating that Celtic value Tierney at 25 million But Tav has better stats FACT And you would accept an offer for 10 million You sir should have a word wi yurself.



29 Jun 2019 13:13:36
Do we ever put a sell on clause when we sell a player?
On another note what’s Jackie macnamarra all about. I’m no fan of Chris Sutton but he is a poor version.



29 Jun 2019 13:37:18
Are we talking real money or demebele dollars or Tierney Dollars? No one in the SPL can say they will make it in EPL or any other top top league as they have not proved themselves in that league. All you can ask for is a fair price and a really good sell on clause. I don't get this, 'well if he was playing in the EPL he would be worth a fortune' Morelos is scoring against poor teams in a poor league as Tierney is a good player in a poor league. The worth of the player comes from the league you are in, the financial position you are in and then players ability.



29 Jun 2019 13:52:51
Cunny my friend. Unfortunately stats don't set transfer fees and clubs will pay more for tierney because of champions league experience. I'm not saying clubs should pay £25million for tierney. The old saying is you're only worth what another club is willing to pay. I would say from my perspective, tav and tierney should be valued roundabout the same. Like I stated tav between £10-£15million and tierney the same. Hope I've made that crystal clear for you cunny.



29 Jun 2019 13:42:41
I personally hope Morelos stays and bangs in another 30 goals!



29 Jun 2019 13:44:24
Lille have just officially been took over by Britain’s richest man tonight. Expect a big bid for Alfredo i'd say they will start at £10m, we will ask for £18-20m prob leave for around £13.5-15m with sell on clause.
This is just my opinion with regards to fees but it’s factual that they have now officially been took over.



29 Jun 2019 13:45:41
Supercooper72, your living in fantasyland if you think we would get 20 million for morelos the guy is a liability lucky if we got 10 for him and sooner the better.



29 Jun 2019 13:48:34
I honestly think Tav must have the same value as Tierney. Tav is a very fit athlete and has been injury free, unlike Tierney. Tav is improving all the time, with goals and assists he is the modern right back. The same goes for Morelos- 30 goals per season and that's with suspensions. Personally i'd love those 2 players to remain at Rangers .



29 Jun 2019 14:48:52
Theglasgowranger, is it not nice that's getting taken over by britain's richest man?



29 Jun 2019 19:27:33
As I'd hope. For 12million plus add ons taking it to above 15.



29 Jun 2019 19:42:09
10m 12m or 20m, who do we replace him with?



30 Jun 2019 06:37:33
SGL. Why post about Stats then, The only thing that is Crystal Clear, Is that you don’t like anybody else’s opinion, That’s a FACT, As numerous persona on this site have Stated.



30 Jun 2019 11:40:46
6counties Well all I can say is thank **** your not the manager because we would be in a crisis tbh. Rangers have already said that they value Morelos the same as what the manks got for Dembele. So if a team doesn’t meet our valuation of 20 million 17 minimum then he’s going no where.



30 Jun 2019 11:41:58
6counties the guy is a liability u say? But he scored 30 goals last season u defy any sort of logic really.



30 Jun 2019 12:14:20
Bryan 1978, you ask a fair question, I never said I'd sell but would want at least twelve. What I would say is every player is replaceable
Scouting department must have names.



30 Jun 2019 20:57:55
If John McGinn is reportedly going to Man Utd for £50m then we are getting shafted big time if Tav and Morelos end up going for £10m each.



01 Jul 2019 13:42:15
Whats interesting is the boy che adams has just been singed by Southampton from Birmingham city for 15mil. He is similar age to morelos scored 22 goals last season in championship but doesn't have any international caps to his name where morelos has been capped by colombia a couple times this year so 15 possibly million or 2 higher should be a realistic figure for morelos.



28 Jun 2019 08:00:58
First time poster here, i am a journalist, I also have close links to the club through my profession (not close enough as some of you) but i believe still close.

In regards to some of the rumours on here, the Sturridge one is a no go, he wouldn't be willing to reduce his wages in order to join the club irrespective of that he is also not on the clubs radar. Football clubs don't just sign players on a whim, every signing has been scouted for months on the field and in training. Steven and Mark Allen Also want players who aren't passengers hence why Dorrans, Rossiter etc have been told to move on.

Aribo as widely reported is signed and will be confirmed tomorrow and should meet up on Wednesday (this is subject to Charlton agreeing for him to train as he is still under contact until the end of the month)

Lawrence Shankland is being viewed as an option and if signed either he or Hardie (most likely Shankland) will go on loan for playing time to see if he can cut it at top level.

Kalas, Cooper, Jagielka are all not on the clubs radar all barring cooper are on too high a wage for fringe players and cooper would demand too high of a fee.

Morelos, Tavernier and Barisic won't be sold unless an exceptional bid is made, most interest in Morelos has been paper talk and rangers haven't been contacted about him, Teams have however enquired about Tav. Barisic is one of the first names on the Croatian team sheet at the minute a team that are ranked as the 6th best National team, The management staff realise this and are willing to give him another year, apparently he struggled last year as his English wasn't great and he didn't have many other hobbies away from football. This year that should be rectified.

The Kent situation is literally down to Liverpool and the player, Liverpool are unwilling to sell him this summer as they feel his price could inflate more if he has another successful season or two, therefore the ultimate decision will be on Kent as to where he would like to play next season.

There is the potential for one or two Marquee signings later on in the summer after the team see their progress in the Europa league. (I mean Marquee as in by Scottish football standards, don't be expecting Arden Robben to be pulling on the famous jersey) other than that the recruitment team and coaching staff are wanting to give the younger players a chance as fringe players, this is mainly down to the Europa league registration rules whereby you have to register 8 or more players trained at the club for more than 2 years when they where 16-21, currently we only have McGregor and Stewart who fits this criteria.

Steven Gerrard is also likely to rebuff any other managerial offers from derby, Newcastle etc. as he sees rangers as a larger club and he doesn't want to have to compete against Liverpool. Rangers as hard as it is to admit basically has gerrard on loan from Liverpool to Hone his skills before returning to Liverpool, This is why (this isn't factual its just my opinion) Gerrards contract at rangers expires at the same time as Klopps at Liverpool.

Either-way we are on our way to 55, if not this year or next or the season after that we will eventually win it, and it will taste even sweeter regardless of how many times the ones from the dark side have won it, no other club in world football would have recovered as quickly as we did, and that's what makes us The famous Glasgow Rangers.



28 Jun 2019 08:42:39
Good post. Definitely Stevie G has morals so he will want to get his teeth into some silverware before he heads South. My fear is if Klopp isn't getting silverware soon he will jump which might dictate SG's pace.



28 Jun 2019 08:52:16
55 this year or next year or the year after that lol.



28 Jun 2019 09:10:49
Most of what have written any well in formed fan could tell you being journalists thought you might have come up with better scoop than Shankland signing which I don’t think will happen.



28 Jun 2019 09:16:15
This is mostly stuff we already know and no offence but I doubt it if a journalist would come on here.

Rumour has it Tav is off to Bournemouth. I don't think anyone will buy Morelos to be honest. At least not the now. I think we need his goals if we are going to win the league. Can't reply on Defoe as his age will have a factor, especially playing on the artificial pitches.

I would give Barasic another chance but I'm not a fan. Saying that why does he do well for Croatia?

We need another striker. I think a target man would suit the bill. Someone different. Onwards and upwards.



28 Jun 2019 11:03:16
As usual the rush to slate another poster is pathetic.

Almost every post on here is guesswork or uninformed nonsense or simply made up.

Perhaps a secret group for those of you with nothing positive to say would be preferable to letting g everyone have their say and then debating views and rumours instead of simply shutting folk down.

My dads bigger than your dad and I’m a bigger Rangers fan than you style of comments are for P5 playgrounds.



28 Jun 2019 11:57:45
Too true DK19 What happen to the cry of UNITE AND FIGHT. It's hard enough with every other club and the sfa hating us without infighting about hearsay and whataboutary. Opinions are all well and good but don't shove them down each others throats.



28 Jun 2019 12:10:04
Dk19, the OP is at the wind up. Surely the last paragraph gave the game away? If not read it again.



28 Jun 2019 12:12:40
Bit rich DK, you are one of the worst for having a go

Welcome aboard Stefan, hardly back page exclusives mate but always good to see a new name on here.



28 Jun 2019 12:57:28
Only a couple of things about this post that is wrong, has already signed, deal was confirmed yesterday, and we have more than 2 players trained at a scottish club, the mccrorie brothers, jamie murphy, Ryan Jack, Andy halliday, ryan hardie. Other than that post was good.



28 Jun 2019 13:11:35
tbf I think every man and his dog knows Gerrard is 'on loan' at Ibrox till it's his time at Liverpool.



28 Jun 2019 14:18:44
Snell

Think you’ll find that I “have a go” at so called fans who have nothing positive to say about my club and team.

I’m a supporter through good and bad days and whilst sometimes not happy with results I can understand that we are on the way back from a very poor position and realistic enough to see that we cannot have instant success.



28 Jun 2019 16:21:57
everything you just was in the papers for weeks when you say close links did you mean you've got a paper round i could of told you all that.



28 Jun 2019 17:19:47
This doesn't prove you're a journalist, just shows that you've been reading the paper for the past 3 weeks.



28 Jun 2019 19:23:01
Negri

Why would he need to prove he is one?

Some poster on here are ridiculous to be honest just welcome they guy

Welcome Stefan.



28 Jun 2019 20:35:50
he's proclaimed to be a journalist then wrote a full spiel about everything I've read in the paper? not really new information.



28 Jun 2019 22:08:55
Negri he still doesn’t need to prove his a journalist tho either believe him or don’t he probably doesn’t care wether you do or not anyway.



29 Jun 2019 09:01:28
If he doesn't care whether we believe him or not why say he's a journalist at all? The whole post was filled with stuff we either know or could guess. It was fun to read but contained little of substance.



29 Jun 2019 11:59:34
Who cares if he is a journalist or not this is a rumour site. Guy took time to post why can't folk just say thanks instead of criticising guy.



29 Jun 2019 15:22:45
I love this site it's a laff!

Blah blah blah, your a d! ck, blah blah blah. Naw your a d! ck and ah know better than you. Naw I think you need to read what I wrote again ya person, that's not what ah said. I it wiz, naw it wiz'nae. you must be from the dark side. Naw av been on here for years! Ah know so and so and he told me FACT. Aye my cousins dads' sister told me you don't know him FACT.

Brilliant!



29 Jun 2019 15:31:25
Seriously getting bad here, rarely contribute and this is why.

Keyboard warrior behaviour, would you rubbish a stranger to their face like that? Unlikely.



30 Jun 2019 12:17:36
most definitely andy. I've no slaughtered the guy. simply bringing up the post that everything he says has been in the paper. awfully time consuming, drawn out post to let us know things we already know! stating he's a journalist, was starting to make me believe we were getting some unknown information.

Keyboard warrior behaviour? don't think you're reading the same thread as me?
