Some will not like this but we're a car crash of a clubs and have been for a good while.

New owners have no clue.

Sorry peeps.

11 Aug 2026 21:40:22
The new owners have definitely not covered themselves in glory, and right now, our club has regressed.

From the boardroom, the infrastructure, to the playing squad, it is clearly evident that it's all in decline. Many won't like it, but the evidence is right in front of our eyes for all to see. Prove me wrong.

12 Aug 2026 00:41:07
Yip, lads, I agree.

12 Aug 2026 09:50:11
Can't disagree with any of that and I see the excuses coming out for the recruitment team now in the other page. 🤦‍♂️

12 Aug 2026 10:03:04
Agreed. To me, we're now set up to aim for 2nd and win the occasional title when Celtic have a weird season (like 20/21). They were all over the place last season and even brought in Nancy to give us a chance, and we still couldn't capitalise.

This is the 1st season in years I haven't bought any new tops, as I don't see the point anymore. Had enough of everything to do with the club.

12 Aug 2026 10:24:57
I'm the same, SS. Haven't been as disillusioned as this before. Balls have hardly been kicked and it feels like we're competing for 2nd.
Cups might be our only chance but only if someone else puts them out.

Very interesting thread. I wrote two months ago that under new ownership we were downgrading all parts of the business.

Was told I was talking nonsense, many fans wanted McInnes, Scottish core, experienced club captains etc etc.
Very difficult to say we have signed better than what we had last year.

Can anyone tell me what has significantly improved in the last year?

12 Aug 2026 14:13:21
Aye, Tav has finally left the club, John.

12 Aug 2026 14:26:30
John, can you elaborate please on what is or has been downgraded? Right now we are a car crash, which I put down to poor recruitment for the most part. You appear to be suggesting there are more dark days ahead and not just on the pitch. Apologies if my "Reading between the lines" of your post is inaccurate, hence the request for further details.

Has been a rough ride for years. More stressful than pleasure watching us these days. I shouted that's us back on the map when we got to the Europa final. Wrong, that was us falling off the cliff and hitting the Scottish Cup on our way down.

@EHL what's the earliest that Chermiti could be back.
Are you able to give a brief on an ACL injury?

11 Aug 2026 22:33:43
Pieter,
I'm not sure we need EHL to confirm the length of time of an ACL.
If would obviously depend on many factors but I'd think well be very lucky to see him return this season.

12 Aug 2026 14:07:53
Pieter Huistra, it definitely does depend on recovery and how successful the surgery is. Based on experience, I busted my ACL when I was 19, and after surgery, and sticking really hard to physio therapy and exercise, it took me 9 months until I could play Basketball to my full extent again.

But that's just my experience, so it gives you a gist on how long it could take or so. But fingers crossed for the big man and it's a full recovery. 🤞🏻

11 Aug 2026 17:27:35
Sky are reporting we're looking to bring Meghoma back on loan.

11 Aug 2026 16:39:47
Wish Chermiti all the best in his long recovery. Many don't ever fully recover from that so hope it's not the case for him. Talk about a sliding doors moment. Reject interest that could have been used to really improve the team and less hand half a game later we lost out on the player and the money. Typical.

11 Aug 2026 18:03:19
Will be lucky to come back the same player. 6-12 month is usually the time. I don't think we will see the boy this season.

11 Aug 2026 22:05:42
Xavi Hernandez, Francesco Totti, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Ruud van Nistelrooy, and Alessandro Del Piero all had severe ACLs and came back. Michael Owen and Theo Walcott never got their blistering pace back, but remember he doesn't have that according to our fans, so he should be fine.

11 Aug 2026 22:27:54
And didn't Gazza do his ACL 3 times?

12 Aug 2026 09:52:03
No, he didn't, Gazza, he only done it once.

12 Aug 2026 11:52:38
Gazza, that was around 35 years ago, mate, so much more advanced in that department now.

11 Aug 2026 15:31:03
Our luck is awful, I'm certain Jimmy Bell ran over a witches cat when he drove the team bus!

Add a number 9 to the must get list now cause the 3 left are not firing Rangers to a title. Miovski doesn't want to be here if rumours (not mine) are correct. Unbelievable!

11 Aug 2026 16:45:05
Iron Rangers, if Miovski says he doesn't want to be here it's because he heard we are getting rid of him, imo.

11 Aug 2026 18:11:51
We're an absolute bin fire under these yanks! Far too many are consoled by them talking a good game yesterday. I wouldn't trust them to put the cones out!

11 Aug 2026 19:07:03
Ir N, I'm also now at the stage I don't trust them any longer.

They aren't backing the manager, I wonder if that's why Rohl wasn't happy either and jumped ship, did he know what kind of summer we were going to have.

11 Aug 2026 21:18:00
Honestly wish we could just take a year out and see what direction this club wants, cause right now everything we touch is an absolute farce.

11 Aug 2026 22:08:26
I wish they would just sell us. I hear Charles Green and Mike Ashley are looking for business investments. Sometimes you need to realise what bad ownership looks like. Have they made mistakes? Then probably, but I don't get the impression they are trying to do to us what the other two did.

11 Aug 2026 22:14:32
Nobody has suggested they are, mate, but just because we've had major issues in the past doesn't mean we should just roll over and accept this level of negligence from the recruitment dept, and if that includes the owners then so be it.

The club is being run terribly atm.

That's not the fans saying it's fault, Angus, it's just the truth, mate. Wish it wasn't.

11 Aug 2026 13:13:56
SSN reporting Chermiti has damaged ACL and be out for a significant time. Best wishes and speedy recovery

11 Aug 2026 13:06:04
Hearing Chermiti ACL will be out for a while, any more news on that?

11 Aug 2026 15:45:31
Rec confirmed by Rangers.
