Hes coming up to Glasgow tomorrow lads to sign a 2 year contract and an option for a further year if he wants it, can't wait til he gets that blue shirt on.
24 May 2016 01:13:21
Joey signs for us gers absolute fantastic can't wait and shocked to get somebody off tht quality one things for sure from start to finish roll they sleeves up and let's get ready to rumble attitude we have badly missed tht in midfield bring on rodgers and celtic now fingers crossed fellow bears we get a solid no nonsence centre back who will spill blood sweat n tears and another striker greg stewart or kane hemmings would do me i have my doubts about jason cummings.
24 May 2016 11:02:47
I agree Barry, I wouldn't want Cummings any where near my club. He's a glory hunter and not a team player and I don't believe he'd put his head in where it hurts to make the difference for us.
24 May 2016 11:48:08
and joey barton is a team player What planet are you on.
24 May 2016 15:36:26
Dundee want 1.5 mil for Greg Stewart would rather we spend our money else where. Björn Sigurdarson and Adam Le Fondre are out of contract at wolves would rather one of them just random names i'm putting out there.
24 May 2016 15:53:11
Dth100, Think you'll find Barton is an ideal team player who makes other players play.
23 May 2016 19:52:01
Scottish Sun stating that Joey Barton has verbally agreed to join Rangers on a two year deal and will sign within next 48 hours.
24 May 2016 00:41:44
Could kranjcar be about to follow Barton, To join the famous Gers.
23 May 2016 14:08:27
Joey Barton is set to sign for Rangers today.
23 May 2016 14:34:38
Looks that way judging by his tweet half an hour ago.
23 May 2016 14:39:19
Hope ths is true all i can say is thts one hand on the title and scott brown good luck lol.
23 May 2016 16:00:22
Barry it's going to take more than joey barton to get the title back, but he is exactly what we need in midfield.
23 May 2016 16:28:44
He just re-signed for Burnley, in Irish Times.
23 May 2016 16:26:17
Hopefully Niko does as well and just wondering wasn't MW scouting two players in America could one possibly be Juan Arango former Venezuela international also plays for NY cosmos.
23 May 2016 16:28:46
soeone will need to find warburton first he appears to have dissapeared.
23 May 2016 16:36:10
He just signed for Burnley.
Let's put this farce behind us.
23 May 2016 18:28:07
No he didn't you fruitcake. He's signing for Rangers.
23 May 2016 18:38:53
No one really knows what barton is up to. The Irish Times says that he has accepted the Burnley Offer, all very quiet at Ibrox! Next thing we will see is someone coming in for Warburton! Can't help but think that we will end up with more mediocrity when what we need is four or five players of Barton's ability if we are to mount a serious challenge next season. If Saturdays performance is anything to go by this current lot would be struggling to get out of the bottom six! Leaderless on the pitch, no fight and pathetic defending. Add to that, totally toothless in attack and only youngster on the bench worth talking about.
23 May 2016 19:13:18
What a massive test this is, but we are The Rangers and will beat it.
Think this will prove to be a pivotal point in the career of MW and test him as a football manager and a man. If he is the quality individual we all believe him to be, he also will rise to the challenge.
I hope JB does sign, but if he does not then so be it and we will move on. On the pitch we need to improve. I have commented before on the silence from the club and MW on our performance on Saturday. We got thumbed 3-2. Please MW communicate with us and tell us how we use this as a positive. Losing the final was not that big a deal although perhaps our preparation was not ideal. The club is putting out statements on non football related matters but continues to be silent on the game. Are we to believe that we are traumatised by the events after the match. Come on this is Glasgow. Come on MW and DW speak to us. Otherwise are in danger of resembling the previous owners and their dishonest and inconsistent behaviour. We have the moral high-ground on the wider issues. We need a straightforward football explanation now.
23 May 2016 19:30:39
I agree, the silence by the club (statements aside) are rather troubling to say the least.
23 May 2016 14:07:55
Tough decision but it's now made. Onwards and upwards from here.
#Rollupandspendyourlastdime
Looks like Barton is signing as he just tweeted that.
23 May 2016 14:35:40
Beat me to it Albertz, looks like it's a done deal boys.
23 May 2016 14:51:33
If its true I hope they announce it at 3:45, steal Blessed Brendans thunder.
23 May 2016 18:39:37
Sorry but the tweet about Penny Arcade could just be him taking the p1ss!
23 May 2016 18:56:57
And it might not be.
23 May 2016 13:13:00
Nicky Clark released by Rangers. All the best Nicky.
23 May 2016 14:26:27
Released or contract not renewed?
23 May 2016 15:18:32
Released.
23 May 2016 15:53:37
Good luck Nicky he may not have been a star but every player has played there part.
23 May 2016 16:48:34
Yeah I agree. Cheers Nicky you played your part and will always be welcome at Ibrox.
24 May 2016 07:56:15
So he wasn't released, he didn't accept the new offer and decided to leave.
23 May 2016 12:59:46
Anyone think the joey barton deal could be done but not announced till his contract officially ends with burnley is it not june 1st they end usually.
23 May 2016 13:55:55
No cause all the other players signed on previous contracts were announced.
23 May 2016 15:57:37
His contract runs until 30/6/16 but should be able to sign pre contract. Burnley have made another offer, no word on what's in it, just hope he comes to rangers.
23 May 2016 12:53:42
Hearing from a source close to MW that we have made enquiries into taking Dom Ball on a permanent basis but Spurs are "playing hardball".
23 May 2016 13:44:53
Is Dom Ball not out of contract at the end of this season?
23 May 2016 13:53:20
Can't be - he is out of contract in the summer!
23 May 2016 14:00:02
Another year to go I believe, Some said he was out in June but that was his loan deal.
23 May 2016 14:27:58
1 more season to go.
23 May 2016 14:44:26
According to the players profile his contract with Spurs ends on 30/ 6/ 16 so if he holds out we can sign him out of contract.
23 May 2016 15:04:57
Spurs activated a 1 year extension therefore his deal expires next season.
22 May 2016 23:35:28
Joey Barton just tweeted the following:
'How does it feel?
How does it feel
To be without a home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?
#'
hashtagging is surely an indication that he is signing?! Hope he's not on the wind up.
23 May 2016 06:51:45
He hashtagged we are the people, not sure why it never pulled through, apologies bears.
23 May 2016 08:17:21
It seems like a massive hint that he is on his way. Great signing, Genuinely wish we had a player like him on Saturday, would have been a different battle in midfield.
23 May 2016 08:56:14
Could be taken either way.
Without a home might mean he doesn't fancy living in hotels
Hope he does come up.
23 May 2016 09:04:34
I hope its a good sign and he is not just trolling us before he signs a new deal with Burnley!
23 May 2016 09:05:12
I can with certainty confirm that Joey Barton MIGHT be signing.
23 May 2016 10:58:49
RFCinfinity, just to add to this.
I can 100% confirm that you confirmed he MIGHT be signing.
22 May 2016 22:53:18
Would any of us take back the experienced and more importantly free agent Neil Alexander? I'm just throwing it out there as he meets all the criteria that we're looking for other than age, and he's far better than we currently have.
23 May 2016 00:55:05
Daniel Bentley is the one we should be after.
23 May 2016 01:35:04
Was buzzing to beat us with hearts so no thanks. Need to stop looking at the old and look to the future!
23 May 2016 07:34:16
I believe that Foderingham kept us in the game at several points on Saturday. or was I watching another match?
23 May 2016 08:16:18
Fod had a decent game against Hibs but does not fill me with confidence going forward! The first goal was a defensive mess up but the ball wall just rolled at the corner, his positioning was wrong and it should have been saved easily. It seems to be a common flaw in keepers trying to dive for these balls, he could have taken one step left and controlled the ball! Personally, I can't understand why David De Gea is the only one who has figured this out and just uses his feet when its easier!
23 May 2016 09:30:18
Think he was expecting Tiernan to do something other than run away.
23 May 2016 11:32:56
Bentley will not sign he is worth 3 million and to be honest I'd want to yous that 3 mil to bring more players than one and wes has been good the only time he didn't perform was the hibs away game but he has been good for us so we don't need to spend all that on a keeper.
23 May 2016 09:17:13
Why we let alexander go in the first place is beyond me. Gk, rb, cb's, cm's are a must.
23 May 2016 15:54:29
Bentleys out of contract is he not?
