Various sources indicate that El Hadji Diouf is trying to get an extension of his stay at Ibrox.

IMO he's a decent player but he'd be better if he could keep his name out of the papers and focus on the job. As a Celtic fan I'd have to say that he's shown that he's no more than a liability in Old Firm games and Rangers performed better without him in the games following the 1-0 farce at Parkhead.

Just curious as to how many Bears actually want him back? (Agree/Disagree)

"Rangers are interested in the extremely skillful moroccan winger Jaouad Zairi who is out of contract this summer"

I'd love this to be true having just watched some footage on youtube, he looks a talent.
Next season Rangers could end up with Zairi on one wing and Puncheon on the other with Granqvist partnering either Bougherra or Papac. If Bougherra leaves, expect a full back to be bought, perhaps Foster on a permanent. Goodwillie will partner Jelavic upfront.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Yes he's very talented. He'd look like Cristiano Ronaldo in the SPL.

Galatasaray have just released Zairi who recently hinted that he wanted to leave the Greek league. He said 3 years in Greece was enough and he felt he hadn't delivered his best football there. Zairi has interest from France (Saint- tienne Montpellier) but Rangers can offer him first team football and exposure to the Champions League. He's 29 years of age and well within Rangers price range in terms of wages.

Let's hope it's true as he would be a fantastic signing for Rangers.


are you having a laugh mate galatasaray is in turkey no greece so what are you talking about go back to school

Hows about you go back to school and learn how to correct people politely . clearly got the countries mixed up!

Anyway, I have also heard of this rumour! - hope it happens!

Team Mix-Up Not Country He Played In Greece With Olympicos.

ed is the puncheon and burke rumour true or totaly false like all the others like heskey mccfaden etc.

{Ed010's Note -I cannot answer that because without having firsthand knowledge of who Ally wants to bring in, potential transfer targets are complete and utter conjecture. While some of the players that have appeared on this site, may appear to some, to be unlikely targets, nonetheless we would be doing our great club a disservice, to say that it is an impossibility.

I know circumstances were different back then but who honestly would have ever thought that players like Gazza, Laudrup and De Boer would ever graced our hallowed turf.

Ed do you think Jay bothroyd could sign and do you think he would be a good signing

{Ed010's Note -I think that Jay Bothroyd would do job for us but whether he could or would sign is another matter. In the last hour I have "edited" several posts from supporters of other clubs stating that he was definately signing for them. There is no doubt that he will have several clubs to chose from.

David Goodwillie defo. Craig Conway defo. Roger Johnson widni mind Just read on the Celtic rumours page that Lennon fancies goin for Adam Rooney and guess who ? chris burke. hope this isn't true

{Ed010's Note -Neil Lennon has stated that there will only be a few "quality" signings at Celtic Park for the start of the new season and only then if they would improve the squad. Do Adam Rooney and Chris Burke fall into that category, I have my doubts.

Please note that only sensible answers will be uploaded if you want to respond.

Ed, where is this Jaouad Zairi rumor coming from is it true is there any possibilitie of it Is there any thing going to heppen with burke and bothroyd

And is there any Ferguson and Jerome gossip

is there any possibilities of any of these players coming

{Ed010's Note -I wish that I knew the answer to all your questions but the truth of the matter is that only a handful of people, within Ibrox will know for definate, who Ally will be looking to sign. He will have a had list and dossier of players that were available to him but now, as the days and weeks pass by, more players who failed to agree terms with their last club, like Jay Bothroyd and Chris Burke, will be added as available.

Ed010 - Asking for your help

Over the past few days, I have received numerous posts, responding to stories and rumours that already appeared on the site. These posts could be described at best, as being disrepectful (to other Rangers fans) and at worst, a form of character assassination and it is not something that we should be indulging in. We are better than that guys.

Due to the vast volumes of posts that are received on the site, it is an almost impossible task for Editors, myself included, to read and check, most of the spelling and grammar or to confirm facts, that appear in your posts.

It is with this in mind, that I would ask your indulgence in ensuring that from now on, that when you do want to make a responce, your post is written in manner that belittles no one and will thereore have a better chance of being published. Thanks Ed010

It was only a rumour, but this is one I'd love to see come to life.

Albertz should never have left, highest scoring midfielder in Europe 2 seasons running and Wee Dick tells him that he will be a 3rd choice left back at best if he stays.

Sky Sports website: ""Contracts have not been offered to Jay Bothroyd and Chris Burke following an inability for all parties to agree suitable new terms during the 2010/11 season, " a statement on the club's official website read."

This will further fuel speculation about Bothroyd being offered a contract with Rangers.
