16 year old Blackpool player Weston signing, 250k.



29 Jul 2020 16:11:51
Not the one we were all hoping for!



29 Jul 2020 16:13:21
OMG WE NEED SEASONED PROS THIS YEAR OF ALL YEARS MAN.



29 Jul 2020 16:15:45
Bar why not.



29 Jul 2020 16:17:12
Totaly agree wonder if were that skint or loaded if we can spend on a 16 year old that's no good fur 1st team this year.



29 Jul 2020 16:22:32
A good signing.
He may be young but has already played in the first team and was being chased by several Premier League teams and ones from the English Championship.
We got him because due to different regulations, English teams couldn’t sign him until September.



29 Jul 2020 16:23:05
Guys I’df Weston signs good business, we can’t take eye of future.
Leeds, Everton and Southampton all want him.
Signing this lad has no impact on bringing in first team players.



29 Jul 2020 16:33:39
Hell stay for 2 year then head bk up the road home sick watch this space.



29 Jul 2020 16:42:27
look i am sorry to be the one to point this out, trust me i am, but no matter this years outcome we do have future seasons we will be playing in. we have one academy going and another to come in.



29 Jul 2020 17:03:23
Absolutely embarrassing that clown Stewart Robertson says in an interview trust us with your money it will be reinvested in team our signings ate an embarrassment free transfers young boys who are nowhere near readyy for the intensity of playing for our club outwith signing of Hagi this has been a shambles so far and I don't care that transfer window still has lot of time to go we play sheep on Saturday and we are in no better shape than last season so how is that any progress it's not there hasn't been a statement signing it's not good enough and we are virtually giving them 10 in a row without them having to do a thing shameful.



29 Jul 2020 17:04:59
great what a window so far 4 bench warmers and a 16 year old celtic must be crapping them selfs.



29 Jul 2020 17:12:58
Exactly Eric some people just don’t think before posting or they really are just that stupid.



29 Jul 2020 17:35:42
Peter all I’d say is give the lad a chance. He has played ONE minute for Blackpool first team.
U r right a few wanted him.



29 Jul 2020 17:36:49
Stick least you made me laugh with that rant.



29 Jul 2020 17:40:21
Alot of seasons are still wrapping up or just finished don't expect signings till mid August. Players are on player breaks.



29 Jul 2020 17:59:23
Good signing, the young lad is said to be a prospect. Welcome to the famous Glasgow Rangers Weston.



29 Jul 2020 18:23:05
John25, I have already said on here we won't spend until we get money in from Fred or Barisic. I understand that, however this announcement to me, at this time, 3 days b4 the league starts, either to get55 or to stop their 9.75, is embarrassing. Its another Academy player, we won't see in a first team Jersey.



29 Jul 2020 18:33:30
Well bar that’s life. If the boy develops he will get a game.
If our club embarrass u, u don’t need to support them.

I don’t agree we won’t spend before we sell.



29 Jul 2020 18:46:36
Folk moaning we need Statement signings, the majority of top leagues have literally just finished. Players will get a week or so off before reporting back for the start of next campaigns. The C.V. issues have totally changed the way the summer window will work this season, hence why it’s been extended to October! The only players you were likely to get in over June/ July were free transfers or pre agreements. You’re never getting a marque signing in before the SPFL starts, teams aren’t wanting to sell their ‘statement’ players whilst their seasons are not finished. I’d rather wait a few weeks for a top player than panic into signing Cosgrove or Shankland. It’s far from ideal but due to the circumstances it’s the way it must be. Need to be a bit more patient guys.



29 Jul 2020 18:47:49
So because the lad is 16 everyone assumes we are wasting our money. He has already made his first team debut. Ok won't push 1st team for maybe couple seasons but if we develop him into another morelos that's a lot of profit. Just now including him we have at least 4 cracking young strikers coming through. Look at Ajax they bring top talent into their youth academy, bring the players on to 1st team level then sell on for huge profits. Great business model if you ask me and 1 we should have been using for years. Who was the last player we got decent money for?



29 Jul 2020 18:47:56
I actually think this is a great signing another cracking young talent picking Rangers football club above other top flight English teams

Read about him a few months back and a lot of talent scouts said the boy is going to have a bright future ahead of him

No matter what will get profit from this after hopefully he progresses into a great young player for us

We obviously have money to spend

And I’m sure the first team players the club wants will be here soon

Wow what have I been drinking tonight - surprised myself when I read that back how positive it was 😛😂😂😂

SERIOUSLY though I’m glad we got him it’s a positive guys trust me.



29 Jul 2020 19:28:14
Yes it is positive the lad seems to have picked us, allegedly from same street gerrard was brought up in.
Grew up watching some of Sg career.



29 Jul 2020 19:35:36
We are just replacing the youths like Kai Kennedy etc that will be leaving with boys that want to be at rangers and 250k is a hell of a lot for a free agent cross border transfer would probably be between the 3-5 million mark in England great business if you ask me give him a 2 year deal with the club getting a option for another 2 year add on in 18month that’s the way it should be done that way in 18 months if he’s good we can put another 2 year on his contract and protect or investment.



29 Jul 2020 19:47:32
That’s a few good young talented players we have now with the likes of

James Graham we signed back in June
Now tony Weston coming up
Charlie Lindsay signed a 3 year professional contract from our youth ranks, heard Gerrard really rates the lad
Along with rest that are already here McPake, Mebude, Paterson, Kai, Mayo to name a few

At least the young squad is looking good

If we can get zunga and a striker for main squad I’ll be happy.



29 Jul 2020 19:50:39
I might be wrong but there's rumours of the boy Nathan Young Coombes going to waste ham! Maybe softens the blow getting the boy from Blackpool! Absolutely have to demand the right money for our kids but if we can and also a big sell on clause!



29 Jul 2020 19:51:35
We're signing and already have lots of young talent at the club, but they never get a chance. Every club in England, Portugal and Spain are fielding first teams with an average of 3 players under twenty years old. Should Patterson be in for tav, when our glorious captain admits he can't handle the pressure? Maybe a youngster can. Could he be any worse? Now we're going to be signing another midfielder too. We have about ten defenders now, sixteen midfielders and only Defoe, crocked, alfredo, off as soon as he can and Murphy or Barker, both not trusted by Gerrard as forwards. Am I the only one scratching my head.



29 Jul 2020 19:52:55
Securing Weston is a major plus. The boy has been attracting interest from EPL Sides like Leeds United. As for not being ready for the first team, although I am sure that we have signed him for the future I remember a young lad, Derek Johnstone, making his debut for us at 16, wouldn't mind DJ back in the team now! No one is disagreeing that we need new players especially a striker and a quality midfield player and Gerrard has already highlighted the need for more players. The European Leagues don't open their Transfer Windows until mid August. We can start worrying if we haven't signed two or three quality players by August month end.



29 Jul 2020 19:55:20
Too many doom and gloom merchants lol BAR honestly mate of this bothers you that much I think football isn’t for you.



29 Jul 2020 19:59:03
Hopefully Mirko Marik does a really top job by scoring a lot of goals
and I would love to see SG getting Adrian grbic from Clermont in France to team up with marik at rangers.



29 Jul 2020 20:01:58
Rossco that is just hyperbole mate. Could pull up within two minutes a team in those league that doesn't apply too.



29 Jul 2020 22:21:53
Rossco can you name the sixteen midfielders we have. Please be realistic about ones who may play and don’t call our wingers midfielders.



29 Jul 2020 22:53:55
Nathan Young Coombes Under contract till end of june 2021 so if West Ham want him 1-2million plus 20 percent sell on imagine if he was at West Ham youths they would prob want between 5-10mil just cause it’s the epl

We need to stop letting player leave for nothing.



30 Jul 2020 06:24:02
Young-Coombes going to west ham?



29 Jul 2020 15:40:04
Looks like Zungi is on his way and might play on Saturday.



29 Jul 2020 16:28:08
Doiger. Think he will need work permit first.



29 Jul 2020 18:23:55
Now John25, that WOULD be better announcement if it were to happen.



29 Jul 2020 18:51:29
I missed this one . ?

Have we signed Zunga - if so this is the creativity I have been shouting about we need this guy looks class?

All we need now is another top striker and I think we will be sorted.



29 Jul 2020 18:57:14
No we enot signed him.



29 Jul 2020 19:29:28
Thestigno imminent. He has apparently turned down Celta Vigo and Strasbourg and is another who wants to play for SG.



29 Jul 2020 19:35:26
Not agreed yet but all sounds promising. He is a regular international so wouldn't imagine work permit would be an issue.



29 Jul 2020 22:22:35
Huey, u won’t have it before Saturday imo.



30 Jul 2020 02:10:49
Zungu isn't a creative midfielder so don't know where Thestigno1 is getting his facts from another fan who just jumps on bandwagon kidding on they know all about him when 99% of us had never heard of him until few weeks ago.



30 Jul 2020 12:52:53
Stiv65

Never said I knew all about him

From what I’ve read and seen of him he can spray the ball about the park and very comfortable with the ball at his feet - can pick out passes etc


So lose the attitude

And if anyone jumping on the bandwagon it’s you buddy with your rubbishty attitude

Don’t like what I post don’t fecking read use the swipe down method!



30 Jul 2020 19:34:56
Signing Dykes no chance of lazy slowcoach Shankland, he makes Kris Boyd (right now) look like an Olympic sprinter.



31 Jul 2020 02:37:47
I'm a realist not a fantasist so I won't lose attitude it's fans like you who when we get linked with anybody you go on YouTube watch a 2 minute compilation and come on here and say yeah that would be a good signing when you have never heard of player or know anything about him because he sprays couple of passes about you come out with statement of that's the creativity we have been lacking when that isn't even his game so that tells us all how much you actually know.



29 Jul 2020 15:08:36
Looks like Weston deal nearly done 250k.



29 Jul 2020 15:46:24
Whos he never heard of him?



29 Jul 2020 15:52:14
Also must be some player if he's cost us two hunner n fifty grand not.



29 Jul 2020 16:14:36
Am all for rangers signing youngsters with big potential but this season couldn’t be any bigger let’s get the players in that are going into the starting 11 in ASAP because the squad we have just now isn’t going to win it. 3/ 4 really good signings needed!



29 Jul 2020 16:27:38
Of course we need players coming in for the first team but we surely must still look forward to the future and continue signing the best young players available?



29 Jul 2020 16:40:57
Deano relax. These signings don’t affect first team. Signings will happen soon enough.



29 Jul 2020 17:33:20
Ds gets fan are you ever happy? U must be a joy on a night out?



29 Jul 2020 17:42:58
Dsger it’s a fairly high price for a sixteen year old.



29 Jul 2020 18:21:51
Herewego 55 i don't support gets never heard of them lol and on a night out i'm the life and sole of the party 😂😂.



29 Jul 2020 18:23:05
Thats exactly my thinking john we couldve got kamberi cheeper.



29 Jul 2020 18:24:17
We ran Celtic pretty close last season. I don't get the mad panic to buy loads of players. Get the right players. I think a couple of quality signings and we are good to go. Winning is a mentality. Think when we brought greggsy and Davis back the team improved and that is down to having done it before.



29 Jul 2020 18:48:13
Dsger. I think kamberi would want a signing on fee and much higher wages.
Some on here need to be patient.



29 Jul 2020 18:51:29
Getting bit bored of the whole but this season is huge we must only focus on 1st team. If we target top quality youth we can develop and bring through our own 1st team and dominate for 15 20 years. That's why celtic are still so far ahead. Thry are selling players for big money with big sell on clause. We won't dominate the league until we get closer financially.



29 Jul 2020 19:10:39
JkingGERS80 - we ran Celtic close? Did we, maybe if leagues lasted til December we did. We were 13 points behind at lockdown and the way we were playing, who's to say it wouldn't have been more?



29 Jul 2020 20:02:28
We need a minimum of sixteen quality players this season, just to fill the team and the subs bench. Personally I reckon we are still two or three players short. Then we start to look at the squad and I am still not seeing the right level of quality unless some of our youngsters can come in and do a job. We can't afford to repeat the mistakes of the past, bringing in substandard players, not having a youth policy, not having a Scouting System. Gerrard has given us hope. He can bring in young players because they want to play for him, he is attracting good quality youngsters like Weston for the same reason. We will know by the end of August whether the Board are supporting him financially. Hopefully they are.



29 Jul 2020 22:12:52
Berkshire I reckon Zunga and two strikers will be signed and at least one loan player.



29 Jul 2020 09:19:41
First time poster guys, been following the site for a while! I work in an international environment and was told from a Croatian guy this morning that Maric to rangers is looking extremely likely, all the talk over there at the moment.



29 Jul 2020 09:27:37
Hope so mate, looks the part👍.



29 Jul 2020 10:22:47
Crooks one of them.



29 Jul 2020 12:04:58
John 25, yesterday you said deadline was 31st for this month payment. Have you had the email with link to pay yet?



29 Jul 2020 12:19:14
Bgate I don’t pay by that method. My nephew does and has not received any email yet.



29 Jul 2020 14:28:43
Thanks again John.



29 Jul 2020 14:31:38
bgate, I haven’t received a link either mate. I wouldn’t worry about it.



29 Jul 2020 16:41:53
Bgate I got text from nephew saying got email with link this afternoon.
Hopefully you have yours.



29 Jul 2020 17:48:51
Got one too 👌🏻.



29 Jul 2020 01:39:13
Well looks as though it could be Cosgrove that's coming. Stevie G called McInness and asked him not include Cosgrove in the squad for Saturday as a bid is forthcoming at some point today. We told them we would match the 2 million that was offered a few weeks ago.

The reason Cosgrove knocked back the French bid is because he knew we were coming in for him. His agent has been speaking to Stevie G on the phone for a few weeks now. Also looks as though we are playing with no striker on Saturday but using a false No9. Stevie told McInnis on the phone call he is trying that new system out against them and Hagi will be in that role.



29 Jul 2020 09:15:22
Stevie G phones rival managers and tells him his tactics? Have a day off mate 🤣🤣.



29 Jul 2020 09:20:00
So Gerrard is letting McInnis know his team selection and tactics in advance of the game! Oh that’s a good one it gets better and better on here 😂 Beam me up Scottie!



29 Jul 2020 09:22:12
Crooks you waking up wi a hangover after that post 😂.



29 Jul 2020 09:22:58
Early morning giggles lol.



29 Jul 2020 09:23:02
I don't think I know Chooks but also heard same tale.



29 Jul 2020 09:29:00
You're at it chooks, everyone knows stevie's tactics anyway🙄👍.



29 Jul 2020 09:31:10
Chooky, what you on mate.



29 Jul 2020 09:37:05
Chooks bullsh*tting at 1.39am! 😉.



29 Jul 2020 09:39:24
Chooks, what utter nonsense ! Did give me a laugh though.



29 Jul 2020 09:52:27
That’s a cracking 01:39 post. had a few?



29 Jul 2020 09:53:01
🤣🤣🤣.



29 Jul 2020 09:59:47
Chucky your a doll no a footballw fan oops ment chooks.



29 Jul 2020 10:42:07
Dum dum dum...

Tune in tomorrow at 9am for the next episode of glasgow's eastenders

Hold it, maybe chooks is stevie g lol.



29 Jul 2020 11:09:06
Did he aye.



29 Jul 2020 11:50:25
Chooks has wire tapped Stevie Gs phone and got this straight from the horses mouth. Belter hahaha.



29 Jul 2020 12:48:14
Jeez there's yet another Cosgrove fan, he is not going to Rangers, naw no chance never



29 Jul 2020 13:33:01
🤣🤣🤣 Chooks, you should change your handle to Carlsberg because that’s the best post I’ve ever read! 🤣🤣🤣🤣.



29 Jul 2020 13:53:42
Cant believe that mob are on our site at 1.39 am there addicted to us aren't yous chooks.



29 Jul 2020 14:02:53
Chooks where do you get this absaloute nonsense from? Cosgrove will play against rangers 100%.



29 Jul 2020 14:03:32
Chooks that has to be THEE biggest Bollocks story I've ever read on here! Seriously man what you on about!



29 Jul 2020 15:24:45
Get Maric and Dykes if Morelos is off. all good . Livi have had support from the club and will get further players on loan. and £1m plus. But Cosgrove? get a grip we don't need a big lump that is only of use as a roundabout we are trying to play football not end to end missile launching like fake tan McInnes. hoooof bounce hoooof goal isn't pretty to watch.



29 Jul 2020 15:36:15
I've had a few pi**ed posts too mate. Wait for sat. Cosgrove will score a penalty against us and Morelos will get a hat trick. Brilliant.



29 Jul 2020 15:57:40
Chooks the Timposter hysterical post apparently STEVIE G called Lennon and said any chance you could feed the thumb fish suppers so I does happen 🤥🤥🤥🤥.



29 Jul 2020 16:15:27
You've hooked a few beauties chook👏👏😂👍.



29 Jul 2020 16:28:16
What a load of Barry white.



29 Jul 2020 00:16:47
I really hope we can purchase Maric and that Morelos stays Can you imagine what that pairing would be like up tops 👍 Throw in Rhian Brewster on loan or Lyndon Dykes ss back up 😮.



29 Jul 2020 09:11:34
But we only play 1 striker 🤔.



29 Jul 2020 09:24:12
We should be playing two ST's in the SPL bgate👍.



29 Jul 2020 09:34:36
Let's all hope Stevie gets the tactics right and results this season, dreading their tainted ten.



29 Jul 2020 10:03:49
He has scored a lot of goals just not during the big title crunch games. People need to stop acting like it's the end of the world. If he goes, he goes.



29 Jul 2020 10:43:57
Coldo I’d play 2 strikers most games if I picked the team.



29 Jul 2020 16:25:46
I agree mate, celtic and europe play with one ST but the rest has to be two. 👍.



28 Jul 2020 23:38:19
Rumour Nathan Young crombes is going to West ham.



29 Jul 2020 13:02:31
boy has an ego and always using rangers as a stepping stone. this move was mooted a few years ago.



29 Jul 2020 17:38:48
Hes struggling being away from his family during this apparently. Hard time for a kid to be away on his own.



28 Jul 2020 22:56:03
if we manage to sign maric and zungu they will add quality to our squad and i am sure they will play a big part in season ahead
If we are paying a decent fee for zunga he has to a first team regular so who place does he take in the team we have a lot options in there.



29 Jul 2020 09:54:35
I would imagine he’s earmarked for sitting/ box to box role with jack or Kamara as partner to allow Aribo/ Kent/ hagi to be advanced.



29 Jul 2020 09:57:03
I think Davis is past it to be honest, tail end of last season he kept losing the ball and hasn't looked great in preseason either. I also wouldn't rule out bids coming in for Kamara.



29 Jul 2020 10:00:46
Maric is ideal replacement for Morelos, but Zungu does not excite me at all! Approaching 30, last year of his contract and playing for a team that got relegated. from the french league! And it’s rumoured we are paying 4 million for him? Can’t help but think this money could be better spent elsewhere! I hope I am wrong and he is kante2.0 or at least plays more consistently than Kamara.



29 Jul 2020 10:25:49
Rangerscynt our management must see something four year deal
Also only 27.



29 Jul 2020 11:47:34
As I see it, Davis will not play regularly, Kamara is a risk in tough games and goes missing. I have to believe that Zungu will be the first choice for that position. What is more, commercially this move is major since it will open up the South African Market to us.



29 Jul 2020 13:04:35
after the referee allowed cosgrove to kick us around and davis hobbled off. it was done there. watched it happen.



29 Jul 2020 13:29:45
Agree with all Berkshire. Davis contract up in eleven months can’t see it being extended.



29 Jul 2020 14:00:13
Davis best days are behind him so i reckon he is the likely casualty if we sign Zungu.

Davis slows the game down as well which is detremental to the fact we have a fair bit of pace in our team.



29 Jul 2020 15:32:30
Hes 27 mate. Still got a good 4+ seasons left in him.
