No creative midfielder and no proven striker in the door, 3rd position it is then!! Gutted is an understatement.

02 Feb 2026 20:28:14
well that is better than the bottom 6 we were forecast to have in September. Joking as still 10 games left in the league but feel free to write us off.

02 Feb 2026 20:51:16
for crying out loud, we've brought in 3 good players so far and are seemingly about to add a centre forward for a hefty fee. Concede the league if you want, but seems a bit silly after what's been a pretty good January window.

02 Feb 2026 21:52:28
Tav I think it might be Paddy Power infiltrating us. he normally writes the league off earlier though 😂.

03 Feb 2026 00:21:37
4 players and all quality additions 3 of which were signed as part of Rohl's long term squad rebuild,
Chukwuani, Rommens, Naderi, and if Skov Olsen hits form again another quality addition on the RW where we had to play Gassama out of position until recently.


The big rebuild is next window.
And i'm sure the recruitment team will be working hard identifying several quality additions in anticipation of the coming summer squad rebuild.

03 Feb 2026 08:31:17
LH I agree apart from the fact that the rebuild in summer will just be to replace loan players and OOCs. possibly others who move on IF the club want to sell. I still don't see many of the ones we bought in summer been moved on. changing 10-11 players every year just harms the club.

02 Feb 2026 18:46:30
All quiet!!

02 Feb 2026 19:11:35

Enjoying the sherry tonight Angus 😉 steady on the night is young.

02 Feb 2026 22:28:29
Pieter filling in the gaps between announcements. not on the sherry or even a drink at all. Bjork just came into my head when I saw the OP. forgot to put the final line in 🤷.

02 Feb 2026 22:48:27
Angus, I did recognise it, looked up video on you tube. 1995 release date. Still to modern for me. 😁 also like how you put in last reply between announcements. 😉
What about the two after that🤔😁🎣.

03 Feb 2026 00:40:10
Bjork's karaoke cover is a rip off of a rip off of an original German song from 1948, then covered by and American, then covered by a French band, then covered by Bjork, it was a warm up track for her and her band pre gig that they decided to cover and release, now Angus has done version 5, release it mate could be a big hit mate.

03 Feb 2026 02:08:42
Angus, and so peacefully clear, , is that it, it's so peacefully? Something i'm site, but can't remember, it's this auld heid of mine lol, brilliant mate.

03 Feb 2026 08:37:39
Fraser it is "and so peaceful until" but good stab at it. If I had reworded that I would then have had to do the next verse and struggled with what I did.

LH "Und jetzt ist es" good knowledge mate; stillI don't think I will release it as I can't see it getting me another number 1 and gold disc 😂🙈.

03 Feb 2026 09:54:20
Think you need to go to the doctor ⬆️😉🤣.

02 Feb 2026 17:36:43
Cristiano Ronaldo AWOL from Al Nassr training. I wonder if this is the transfer that will "Rock Scottish football to its very foundations" - JBL27, any updates on you're quote the other day?

02 Feb 2026 19:00:02
🙃🙃 come on now.

02 Feb 2026 19:24:30
Messi, Muller and Ronaldo the new dream front line.👍.

02 Feb 2026 21:35:15
Don't spoil it, let's wait for the announcement. 😁.

02 Feb 2026 16:10:03
£25 million for Engels the mind boggles only good for corner kicks and penalties, especially when we have our very own Belgium international in Nico Raskin, any EPL team want him the bidding starts at £30 million.

02 Feb 2026 19:05:59
What if Raskin's agents negotiated a lower buy out valuation as part of his contract extension?

This would be sensible business by the club, as it prevented him leaving for free.

03 Feb 2026 02:10:07
25 million, phew it must be just his boots there trying to buy lol, lovl.

02 Feb 2026 15:59:48
I cannot believe Nottingham Forest have bid £20Million +£5Million add ons for Arne Engles, our man Raskin keeps him out of the Belgium national team. I cannot see what they see in him apart from him taking penalties.

02 Feb 2026 16:44:13
Bid been knocked back by Celtic.

02 Feb 2026 17:39:01
Completely gabber flasted by that!

02 Feb 2026 17:40:09
Hope he stays as he is nothing special. And that haircut! 🤣.

02 Feb 2026 18:21:10
can Rangers fans be a green eyed monster 🙈.

03 Feb 2026 00:53:07
Well they managed to get 75 mill combined for Tierney, Jota, O'Riley, Succesfull teams attract bigger fees from buying clubs.

Up to Rangers to step up to that level of success if we want to sustain bigger player sale fees.

02 Feb 2026 13:26:05
Now correct me if I'm wrong here with reports of Naderi in the UK. Would his club not have to grant him leave as no doubt if played on Saturday they be back training today. If rumours are true I think this one happens. Be interesting to see what Rohl thinks about him on the park. Rohl's probably first signing by himself.

02 Feb 2026 14:38:22
Davie, if they have a training day today then yes they would need to give permission. if he is in Uk then it seems that the clubs may not be too far away.

02 Feb 2026 18:23:55
someone else asked about about a medical. would we wait until summer only to have the medical then and find out he had an injury no-one knew about. we would then have missed out on other alternative targets. so is the visit an agreed medical.

02 Feb 2026 21:14:11
Davie it's reported on sky that his club had given him permission to travel last night. The deal had effectively been agreed.

03 Feb 2026 00:59:07
Done deal, even transfermarkt have updated the team with him added now, was agreed prior to Naderi leaving germany, only thing that would have stopped the deal was a failed medical, he passed after completing the medical in manchester and the agreed fee between Hansa and Rangers was finalised.
Some player like.
Going to be a fan favourite i believe.

02 Feb 2026 12:43:56
Ryan Nedari on route to UK for medical. Its not clear if its for a move now or for the Summer. Surely that's indication its for now.

02 Feb 2026 13:02:58
It's been co formed it's for now by sky germany plettenburg.

02 Feb 2026 18:02:45
Jasper, we would be mad giving him a medical now for a summer move, ie, what happens if he gets bad injury before his summer move to Rangers fc?

02 Feb 2026 11:50:13
Skov Olsen getting pelters already after two games. Bit unfair, Cooper, McCoist didn't set heather on fire their outset either.

02 Feb 2026 12:04:00
I don't think he's getting pelters, I think its down to him not being fully match fit. Tochi and Skov I think you should be bringing on as subs not starting straight away. Did and Moore changed our attacking options yesterday, we maybe should've started with them.

02 Feb 2026 12:24:21
*Dio and Moore.

02 Feb 2026 12:42:34
💯 Jasper. Start your best up to speed match fit team until such time you can't leave them out. Diomande should've started yesterday. You could argue otherwise but bringing them in not match fit and up to speed put huge pressure on them from a fan base who's patience has been tested so much in the last 12/13 yrs it's no longer realistic in many regards.

02 Feb 2026 13:15:08
Lmac I would agree. my only caveat being that we had a hard game on Thursday so playing fresh players where possible to reduce the number of tired players mentally and physically could have been thought to help.
I agree re Dio and whoever goes in there needs to get forward and play forward more often.

we literally had Raskin and Tochi sitting as players in front of our CHs yesterday for most of the game. stops us losing goals possibly but not great for scoring.

02 Feb 2026 13:38:28
I trust Rohl to make the right decisions. he would have had advice on who was best fitness wise to start. How does Olsen get up to speed with 20 mins on.

02 Feb 2026 13:57:26
Think its the ones calling him the new Laudrup that's annoying.

02 Feb 2026 16:09:01
Olsen just playing steady, expect him to get better as the games tick by, reall like Chucky always on the go and usually one touch football from him as well as being in right place for second balls etc, think he might become a fans favourite, Raskin, Chucky and Dio looks to be the preferred midfield for most the fans.

02 Feb 2026 16:58:36
Coopers not enough assists and goals in there for me so if we play that triangle I would rather one who chips in with goals. Moore, Aasgaard for me or even Bajrami or Antman.

02 Feb 2026 18:05:11
Agree with u Angus, Raskin seems the one that gets things happening more when let go forward but not a scotty Arfield, those three seem to be the steadiest though for tougher games, top three need to give us a lot more as well, if we don't we will be nowhere near a title.

02 Feb 2026 11:03:27
Our transfer approach is very much like our forward play, no sense of urgency and no will to hunt down this league. There was a lot of reported promise, but it's materialised to a poor end to the window. Don't want to criticise the lads that have came in, but that business won't win us the league.

Jens Hjertø-Dhal still available, Silas Andersen still available and German 3rd tier team dictating purchase of their striker. Our negotiations from a fans point of view appears to be pretty poor.

02 Feb 2026 12:27:22
Jasper every clubcan dictate the purchase of their player.

02 Feb 2026 12:29:10
Jasper the owner off a player has every right to dictate the sale off their player.

02 Feb 2026 13:04:42
Hansa Rostock have played the transfer out perfectly and we've had to do what the want fair play.

Dahl or a creative midfielder is needed but I can't see that happening.

02 Feb 2026 13:18:03
I actually think the club has done exactly what thy said. we got 3 in early and everything else was down to a domino effect. you need external things to happen mostly for that domino effect to work including a team being willing to sell their player and at the right price.

why would the team who have reduced 13 and 8 point leads to Hearts and Celtic suddenly not be good enough? we have filled the gaps in quality where we didn't have it and kept all our main players who others were reportedly trying to buy. is that not a good transfer window?

02 Feb 2026 13:28:20
As the guys have said the power lies with the selling club.

02 Feb 2026 15:12:29
John & Aph, I'm giving my point of view from our side. If the selling club dictating the deal then of course that's their right to do so. From our side then I think we should have strong back up negotiations going on for similar players that both the club and player are ready to make the deal happen.

If Rostock have played us for more money, then hats off to them.

02 Feb 2026 17:02:18
Jasper, so you want the club to not go for their targets which take us in the direction they want and just go for the next choice. No team likes to sell their 1st team players in January so these guys may be looked at again in summer; however only if the price suits us.

we will have a price we are willing to pay even with Rostok and I suspect won't go above it.

02 Feb 2026 18:33:02
Coo
Jasper, but we do know at least one other striker is beitlooked at ie archer.
