The word os senderos has failed his medical.

26 Aug 2016 18:00:20
Not surprised the medical has been taking place since yesterday. He's either failed or it's the longest medical in history.

26 Aug 2016 18:07:38
Not necessarily bad news of true.

Can't see a player failing a medical who's been training at the club for two weeks.

Calling BS on this one.

26 Aug 2016 18:12:48
Sorry but i don't believe that one, one thing I have noticed is that Rangers take their time when they are signing a new player, so i think the player will sign in the next 24/ 48 hours.

BREAKING: #Rangers trialist Philippe #Senderos has failed his medical and will return to Switzerland. More to follow

from twitter.

I think we can believe it when we hear it from an Official Source rather than from Twitter!

If that is the case then we have five days to find the money to bring in someone of quality or we will have potential problems all the way to January 2017!

In any event it is up to the current centre backs to prove that they have the quality and skill to keep a shut out tonight and in our next league game just as it is down to the team to make sure that we win by a few goals in both those games!

Don't think he is the answer, but agree with a lot of people that people deserve a chance. If he could see the posts slating him on here he'd probably damage his own metatarsal to get away from us whinging wegies!

Thank you TOM42 for a bit of sanity.

26 Aug 2016 22:14:29
Simon rowntree is an alleged fraud btw just letting you know. Can't see him failing a medical after training without any problems the past 2 week.

26 Aug 2016 22:14:40
Looks like a wind up from the dark side.

27 Aug 2016 12:23:51
Senders will sign Monday but as usual wi Rangers we've fe. ed about and dropped another two points.
Anyway senders and a left back who doesn't just fill a shirt and we will be ok.
Also need to get Kranjcar on park because he's the only one with a bit of vision who can pick a pass.

27 Aug 2016 19:10:13
Are we loosing sight of what this page is for guys. its NOT for slating our new and improving team and player. you have short memories of where we have just come from. honestly fellow bears get a grip and get fecking real and back not belittle our boys. in warburton we trust!

28 Aug 2016 11:28:58
If Hill had been signed by McCoist, McCoist would have been slaughtered! It is all about opinions, he is not and never will be a Rangers' player.

Against Celtic we need athletes and people that play with a passion for the jersey. It will in many ways be a make or break game for Barton given all his 'hype'.

Our centre backs will be fundamental to the outcome of this game!

The latest rumour that is doing the rounds is that we want Chambers on loan but I reckon that he will be sold so unless we magic up some funds for him he won't be coming.

26 Aug 2016 11:13:55
Don't know if this true or not. But heard from a guy in work who has been spot on with a few signings this year not only with our club but also Celtic.

Rangers are interested in bringing AZ youngster Opdam on loan for the season. He's a RB with a bit of pace, back up for Tav incase injury.

Don't know much about him but why not wee need back up for that position.

And in relation to Senderos signing I hope we get him and he can shut all the haters up, that he has still got what it takes to boss a back line and take care of high balls in the air. His experience would be great for both our CB's we have the now. Don't get me wrong he can make mistakes but hey so dose all defenders. Big Amo made lots but we all still loved him.

What you think Bears?

26 Aug 2016 11:35:27
There are no 'haters' just people who realise he won't be a good signing myself included.

Extremely immature to describe anyone who disagrees with something as a 'hater'.

The real 'haters' are those who continually criticise our current players - in particular the ridiculous comments that "anyone could do better"

I don't want senderos (for logical reasons) but he will have my support if he signs- unlike the so called fans who seem to have no respect for some of our players.

The answer to our problems is on tue training pitch. Better organization and practice.

26 Aug 2016 11:41:36
Hodson mate.

26 Aug 2016 11:36:08
If MW and DW like what they see, then who are we to argue.

26 Aug 2016 13:13:51
so u want a back up for our back up? tav is first choice no matter what the haters say about him and hodson is second choice behind tav for that position he can also cover our captain at the other side.

26 Aug 2016 13:37:21
Mr Nice, think have heard you say before answer to central defence weakness is to be found on the training pitch and better organisation and practice and think you have something there. I think there is a naivety about how we are organised and perform there that is disturbing. Our inability to effectively defend a corner is alarming and results in a nervousness and inevitable goalscoring opportunity. Really surprised that DW has been unable to influence this and get it right. Don't believe Kiernan, Tav or even Waldo have genuine defensive instincts and need better preparation that should be worked out on the training pitch. On the positive side think Fod looks more focused this season and the threat of Gilks is having an impact. Think also that Wilson looked better and more prepared last time out. Would like to see Barton and even Rossiter provide more leadership. Rant over.

Bare necessities

I am a supporter and I'm arguing with them, MW and DW - results so far are simply unacceptable!

Line has to drawn - and on current form they are currently simply below the line!

Any word on senderos medical, pass/ fail?

26 Aug 2016 10:42:44
Well if it was last night and they haven't announced the signing it might not be good news. I hope not. I want him to sign.

26 Aug 2016 10:45:39
does anyone know the latest he can sign and still be included in the squad for tonight?

26 Aug 2016 10:48:35
Does anyone know the latest that Senderos can sign and still be included in the squad for tonight?

26 Aug 2016 11:00:06
Want him to sign too, that was my next question jersey loyal, will there have to be a certain time players must be registered by to play in the game, saying that, will he be match fit?

26 Aug 2016 11:37:48
The guy's not played for months. Surely the friendly game is more realistic (if he's passed medical)

26 Aug 2016 11:14:43
He is currently continuing to impress! How long has this been going on? Every morning is the same news report lol.

26 Aug 2016 11:36:05
Probably been sorted and just needs to sign.

28 Aug 2016 20:54:00
If his Agent watched the Kilmarnock game then Senders terms will just have increased!
