With interest in Chermiti becoming more public, I understand why fans would want to keep him but we must acknowledge every player has a selling price.

If we are offered the reported £25m then for me we must accept. A potential £16m profit on a player within 12 months is incredible.

This allows us to not only reinvest the money into the squad but more importantly makes us an attractive club for potential signings.

08 Jun 2026 00:03:25
Very true, Trueblue, desperate for him staying another year, mate, but you're spot on with selling him for a good profit after a year. It does show other players what we're capable of. I'd prefer selling Raskin for more investment in players, plus imo he wants tested in a far better league.

My mate heard we are looking at Ryan Porteous as an option for Centre Backs apparently

07 Jun 2026 20:14:16
No. No, no. Please no.
To clarify my position, No.

07 Jun 2026 21:25:16
Not a fan of Porteous on or off the park.

07 Jun 2026 22:13:47
I think we are safe, no disrespect to OP, but it is the same names every transfer window, and we never ever sign them. In fact we rarely sign anyone who we have rumoured to be after.

It is almost always left field. MPH, you need to put your definitions up at start of every week so we recognise the difference between rumour and fact again. 😉

What I have noticed in the Scotland and England games is the women officials, what an absolute embarrassment for W. Collum if any female officials are involved in the World Cup.

06 Jun 2026 22:54:35
I'm not quite sure I understand your post?

07 Jun 2026 00:12:47
Sorry, what I meant was that there were more women officials than men from Scotland.

07 Jun 2026 01:58:03
Scramble Egg, I understand your post. The referees have been shown to be untrustworthy due to their officiating in Scotland these last five/six years, at least, eh.

07 Jun 2026 08:03:32
Surely we should be embarrassed that no referees from the country have made it to the WC full stop. The fact that there are female officials going has nothing to do with it. The choice has been made over the last 3 years on ability and not gender.

07 Jun 2026 08:13:21
Maybe we should be looking at having some female officials in our league. The men are severely lacking the quality and their absence at the World Cup proves that.

07 Jun 2026 08:22:48
What an absolute embarrassment of a post.

07 Jun 2026 11:26:55
There is nothing wrong with having women referees. Poor post on this occasion. I've seen many games where women referees have officiated, and can tell you that they are better than many of the male referees.

There is a growing number of young female referees coming up the ranks, and expect to see some of them to appear in our top games within the next 5 years.

07 Jun 2026 12:04:57
I'm sure O.P. didn't mean the way that read.

Me personally, couldn't care less if you've male, female, black, white, elephant or giraffe, just be competent at referring and do it without fear or favour.

07 Jun 2026 14:19:47
Best person for job suits me whoever they are, unfortunately does not always work that way.

07 Jun 2026 15:06:38
Think it is just an overall poor standard of refs in Scotland, & in fact SFA will not admit this & do something about it.
If players performed as badly as some in a game they would be replaced.
It is just a hobby to them that makes them some extra cash. Most are already in high paid occupations.

05 Jun 2026 10:26:51
I quite like the new away kit

Maybe just me
The top sort of reminds me of the 2001/02 top when we were sponsored by NTL

And the shorts are like a throw back to early nineties when we were wondered by Mcewan Lager?

It's a sort of mix between the two.

05 Jun 2026 11:23:00
No matter how bad any of our strips look, they'll never be as bad as any Celtic top.

05 Jun 2026 15:00:59
Yes it's just you Stig.

05 Jun 2026 18:14:37
Correct, Cuillin, that hooped rhag is just awful.

06 Jun 2026 07:23:35
I was underwhelmed initially when I saw pictures of the top alone, not being modelled. But having seen the photos on the Castore site with players modelling it in full kit, I've changed my opinion. I wouldn't say it screams "Rangers" but it's pleasant enough. Not my favourite by any stretch.

06 Jun 2026 12:04:06
I don't mind the kit. I just mind the price tag. Rangers shouldn't be following the doomed kit pricing model of the EPL. They have TV money to cover the lack of top sales (compared to us). 50 quid is enough that if we buy all 4 they would make more than if we only can afford to maybe buy one. And, with tariffs and shipping, the normal top would cost me 100 dollars plus.

That's insane. Between RTV price and, if I make it over, the ticket and travel costs, a top just isn't in the budget. And I've bought at least 2 tops a season since 06. Last year was my first year not getting one. I even have the crappy Puma gear from the lower leagues.

06 Jun 2026 14:28:30
Brad, it has been increasing by £5 for each of the last 3 seasons now, but I agree it is far too expensive. When you think the cost and shipping of the top is less than £9, by the time the retailer, marketing, the manufacturer and the government take their share we reach that figure.

£37+ goes to the retailer, so if at club shop the club get all less overheads.

I haven't bought one for ages since I stopped playing 5s. Tops for em were always just to wear to match or play in. Wife would kill me if I even thought to wear it anywhere else.

07 Jun 2026 07:25:13
I only wear a top on European away trips, which cost 3 times my season ticket. And nowadays my preference is one of my more vintage tops. My money goes into tickets, travel to support, and a few quid a month into the development fund.

I might be swayed with a home top if it's the one that's been sweeping the group chats, but not £85 for the white top.

07 Jun 2026 11:30:33
I'd like to see a 4th kit of Red with Gold shirt (ala 49ers).

04 Jun 2026 20:29:05
New away top out tomorrow, just announced

05 Jun 2026 08:03:38
Think it looks like a poor training top. No thought put in it.

05 Jun 2026 21:36:07
Quite like it, plain but nice.

04 Jun 2026 13:14:07
Try and get a listen if you can to jonny McFarlane of Rangers review doing a podcast about an hour ago to how good a signing he rates lawrence shankland, it's a superb listen 👌🇬🇧He states he even thinks some Rangers supporters don't realise how good a signing this is, as some just see shankland as a kris boyd type striker who's a natural finisher in the box 🤔He says shanks overall game over the last 3 or 4 years has improved so much and he stated that he absolutely although not as good as harry kane, likens shankland's style to kane's 🤔I said the exact same when we signed him last week 👍He was waxing lyrical about shanks link up clever play and movement as well as being a very good goalscorer and reckons both Chermiti and Miovski will benefit massively playing beside shanks 👍🇬🇧 In mcfarlane's opinion he reckons shankland will play mostly and it will be Chermiti and Miovski that will take turns at who plays beside him, i'd imagine would be mostly Chermiti if that indeed was the case 🤔Shanks now overall link play and style was also linked to being of a similar style to the man United striker of yesteryear teddy sheringham 🤔It was a very good podcast and actually made you really think about what a very good signing shankland is for us 👌🇬🇧 What's everyone's thoughts 🤔

04 Jun 2026 13:39:28
Miovski wants out, very lazy player who is ok at scoring goals against lower league teams.

I suppose it's a great endorsement from a Hibernian fan.

04 Jun 2026 14:21:10
I assume McFarlane has forgotten we also have Naderi?

Will Shankland track back and chase in the same way as the others?
Unless we sell Chermiti, Shankland won't be first choice striker, though he may play in a two.

04 Jun 2026 14:36:23
Swso there's not even a slight possibility that Chermiti will play second fiddle to Shankland. That's crazy, mate. I do agree that his game has got so much more than just goals to it. If Chermiti is here he's number 1, 100%.

04 Jun 2026 15:22:29
I think Shankland is a better finisher than all our strikers, but, at 31, we should manage him and use him properly. He's ready-made for certain games and will be better off the bench for others.

Rather than guess who plays most, let's see who's here when the window closes, then have a guess at it.

04 Jun 2026 15:47:57
I don't think Miovski will still be here. Shankland, in my view, will replace Gassama when he plays.

04 Jun 2026 16:12:54
Blue, I wrote early March Miovski was told he could find another club.
Along with Nsiala, Sterling, Bajrami, Danilo, Cifuentes, Cortez.

04 Jun 2026 17:43:45
Think it makes sense if we are playing two up front that Shankland would be playing along side one of the other strikers like Chermiti/Naderi/Miovski.

I don't, however, think Chermiti will be taking turns with anyone.

He will be first name on the team sheet to play up front with Shankland in a two, and, if we go with one up top, Chermiti will be the first on the team sheet then also. In my opinion, of course.

05 Jun 2026 07:19:01
Having both is the real bonus ball, along with Naderi, competition for places, pushing each other along. I expect a lot more goals from the front players this year.

06 Jun 2026 20:30:52
Shanks is a really good player, Coops. I agree with how excited yous are over him.

He's going to surprise a lot of people with how good a forward he actually is.

He's going to do great.

03 Jun 2026 10:57:27
Anyone have any idea of the release date for new strips? I've seen a few posts on what they look like but its still not 100% confirmed that is them.

03 Jun 2026 16:01:27
Deemc stuck in Strait of Hormuz.

03 Jun 2026 16:36:36
Everything stuck there, the now job am
Waiting on my new shaver for my pubes, been stuck there for a month now, and am hairy as feck down there now.

03 Jun 2026 17:03:52
Storm, I'm eating my dinner.

03 Jun 2026 17:41:41
Now you are making it personal, Storm. 😂😂

03 Jun 2026 17:49:20
Get waxed. 🤣🤣

03 Jun 2026 18:44:21
Should be open soon. Israel today opened its borders and is no longer considered a danger to travel.

03 Jun 2026 19:04:55
Ducking Fiscusting. 🤮

03 Jun 2026 19:27:17
Poor John. 😂

03 Jun 2026 19:32:55
Storm Ed has wisely edited my post

03 Jun 2026 22:27:10
We'll use our imagination, for what you had actually said, John, not for Storm shaving his downstairs mix up. 😂

03 Jun 2026 22:57:39
Sorry John, I hope you enjoyed your dinner. Fourlads tried a bikini wax before, maybe should have worn the wife's. 🤦‍♂️ It was rather tight.

04 Jun 2026 08:05:40
There is a bush tucker joke in there somewhere. 😇

06 Jun 2026 17:50:41
Storms shaver stuck in the strait of hormones.
