Red bull to be shirt sponsor next season.
1.) 28 Apr 2025 13:15:02
I would like Rolls Royce or Ferrari.
20 Feb 2025 22:44:40
If the takeover goes through do u think money will be spent on the stadium?
1.) 20 Feb 2025 23:32:13
Hope so we have stagnated.
2.) 20 Feb 2025 23:59:52
Upgrades to the facilities yes. Capacity wise not so sure. Looking at Parkhead, I think in Scotland 60k is the max capacity that can be filled and only on certain occasions. But let's not get ahead of ourselves. The surrounding area could do with a spruce up.
3.) 21 Feb 2025 01:03:28
My understanding is that ffp rules don't impact on money spent on facilities etc. So that could be a way to inject money in to the club, improving revenue streams for future years, while staying within the rules. That said, improvements/ expansions to the stadium might also come along with increases in ticket prices as is imagine they'd want to squeeze everything they can from all revenue sources. We'd adjust bed to factor in outside investors will probably want a return on their investment, sitting the current regime haven't really been chasing. All hypotheticals right enough. I'd guess there's a long way to go before and significant change in ownership actually happens (if it does at all! )
4.) 21 Feb 2025 01:06:54
Absolutely. Celtic have an advantage on us every year at the start of the season because they have a higher capacity. I can see us filling in some corners to up capacity because that'll be easy money in.
5.) 21 Feb 2025 05:35:00
I know i'm jumping way ahead of myself here but was thinking if this takeover goes through in a couple of months or so, i wonder how much they'll increase our season ticket fees for season 26/ 27???.
6.) 21 Feb 2025 06:47:47
Put a club deck on the remaining 3 stands. Was there not talk of it on the Sandy Jardine Stand at one point.
7.) 21 Feb 2025 07:16:43
Blue 89 not sure ibrox has been at capacity much this season.
8.) 21 Feb 2025 07:18:51
The stadium is in desperate need of improvement, but the majority of the improvements aren't revenue generating.
Think we'll see a number of alternative revenue generating projects prioritised.
9.) 21 Feb 2025 07:47:54
Been saying that for ages on here?.
10.) 21 Feb 2025 08:29:56
If Rangers became successful again, winning leagues, cups and doing well in Europe, we would easily sell 60k season tickets. Not sure there's space for another 10k seats inside ibrox though?
11.) 21 Feb 2025 09:15:08
Can't build any higher up fork am sure it's something to do with sun and houses round ibrox.
12.) 21 Feb 2025 09:33:11
Its definitely on the cards.
13.) 21 Feb 2025 09:45:54
Up until this season we would 100% sell out a 60k seater. If the team is challenging then there would be absolutely no doubt it would sell out most weeks. If it's another season like this one be lucky to have 40k there regularly.
14.) 21 Feb 2025 10:23:51
Even 5,000 extra seats would be good.
15.) 21 Feb 2025 10:45:47
Didn't know that, Storm?.
16.) 21 Feb 2025 10:57:19
In the day Murray was talking about having to rebuild as the pitch is affected if you close in gaps and can't build higher. the cost then was £700m so hate to think of the cost now.
17.) 21 Feb 2025 16:29:44
Could we play games in installments 50k in for first half and a new 50k for 2nd half, the current board would look at that and think it a winner. They could appoint a director for it and they love that sort of thing.
16 Jul 2024 23:53:03
Kamara now left Leeds now much are we due from the sale.
1.) 17 Jul 2024 02:30:15
Less than £1m.
2.) 17 Jul 2024 06:00:21
The less than 1million additional fee is still way more than we paid Dundee great business we should look at players doing well in our own league more.
3.) 17 Jul 2024 07:10:20
So how much is it, I asked this 2 days ago, is it 820k 10% of fee or is it 270k 10% of the difference between 5.5m we sold him for and 8.2m Leeds sold him for, no one seemed to know.
4.) 17 Jul 2024 07:43:52
Your right fork it’s 10% sell on fee, so if the fee is 10m it’s 10% of the profit so 10% of 4.5m.
5.) 17 Jul 2024 07:49:16
Cheers Wishy heard it was 8.2m bud so 270k then??.
6.) 17 Jul 2024 08:11:32
Think the 10m fee is euros so your probably right mate.
7.) 17 Jul 2024 08:15:15
Jesus what school did you go to fork? :)
8.) 17 Jul 2024 08:48:07
Widely reported as c800k. So i'd guess it's either 10% of the total fee (not common, but does happen), or 20% of the profit made. Either way it's a bonus, but not really going to make a massive difference in our transfers.
9.) 17 Jul 2024 08:57:15
I thought that "what school did you go to " nonsense had stopped and the Jesus thing too. Unless it's a question if Jesus used a fork?
Weird.
10.) 17 Jul 2024 09:41:02
Petera, fork is spot mate,8.2m - 5.5m=2.7m ÷10=£270k, maybe fork will ask you what school you went to?.
11.) 17 Jul 2024 10:07:23
10% of any profit.
12.) 17 Jul 2024 11:17:23
Some bitchiness on here maybe they should buy a cat for company or a goldfish, not a parrot as what would just be constant arguing.
Fork was right and his school has 'k all to do with things.
13.) 17 Jul 2024 11:38:04
£800k roughly. Depending on the structure of the deal which was £8.6m in total. Rangers due 10% of the transfer fee, however, unsure if that £8.6m is up front or subject to add ons.
14.) 17 Jul 2024 12:12:03
How many doctorates do u hold petera, I'm guessing none, comment when you have facts, you should try it then u wouldn't look a doofus when you are wrong. ???.
15.) 17 Jul 2024 12:16:44
"Foot in Mouth" springs to mind??.
16.) 17 Jul 2024 12:19:28
"If Jesus used a fork"? brilliant belhaven, though sometimes I worry about your sanity??.
17.) 17 Jul 2024 15:44:37
@TrueBlue33 that'll be £300k then, nowhere near £800k. Sell-ons are on profit only. We sold him for £5m, they sell him for £8m, we get 10% of £3m. £300k.
18.) 17 Jul 2024 17:16:29
Exactly as stated above?.
19.) 17 Jul 2024 20:25:54
is it enough to cover the expense of using hampden?!
20.) 17 Jul 2024 20:26:39
Fork is there a sanity clause, I was going to write a letter.
21.) 17 Jul 2024 21:58:00
No bud lol, but sometimes it helps to be a little doolally belhaven??.
06 Dec 2023 12:49:57
Any whispers about new players in or out in January thanks.
1.) 06 Dec 2023 14:12:30
Michy Batushuayi struggling for game time at fenerbache has got one year left. Experienced striker.
2.) 06 Dec 2023 14:32:00
A new striker is desperately needed. hopefully move a few players on. very disappointed our new Dof doesn't join until next month.
3.) 06 Dec 2023 15:19:06
That's because his attitude is poor and his wage would be too high. Personally I'd be using any budget to try and get shankland unless PC has someone lined up from Belgium or France, I'm sure there's someone he'll target from his time coaching in those countries.
4.) 06 Dec 2023 15:47:38
Need a proven competent striker that's done well or doing well in Scotland n will hit the ground running.
5.) 06 Dec 2023 16:01:11
Need to sign Shankland and somehow offload Lammers and Dessers.
6.) 06 Dec 2023 16:53:38
A think whoever we bring in will have worked under Clement before or at least played in the leagues he’s managed in, if we do manage to get a few out the door then all the better as I don’t see us splashing too much cash, the Shankland debate will continue till the summer when he has a year left on contract and realistic transfer could be achieved, hopefully he does not impress our manager tonight.
7.) 06 Dec 2023 16:55:40
I don't see the point in signing Shankland as hearts will demand a few million for him and he has no resale value. Would rather go for one of the lads at Aberdeen.
Mark the new DOF will already have the players in his sights as we will be in a similar market to PSV for upcoming talent. We are still waiting on red tape to be sorted regarding work permits etc.
8.) 06 Dec 2023 17:18:16
I highly doubt we will sign anyone on perm deal maybe a couple of loans
Unless someone moves on for a fee or we get a few of wage bill it will be frees and loans.
9.) 06 Dec 2023 18:43:57
Don’t expect any signings for cash in January. PC and JB have already told us to not expect movement and we need to become break even. Our budget was blown in the summer on the duds such as Desses, Lammers, Sterling, Dowell etc.
It will be a couple of loans maybe even bringing back Lowry and Hagi so they can be put under the careful eye of PC.
Summer will be yet again another rebuild.
10.) 06 Dec 2023 19:16:40
Armando broja fae chelsea good big powerfull striker only 22 love to see him even a loan deal.
11.) 06 Dec 2023 22:56:26
Danilo is starting to look every bit as bad as the other 2.
12.) 06 Dec 2023 23:38:29
Intr 86 doubt Santa could even pull a loan deal for him off for us.
13.) 07 Dec 2023 01:23:47
I don’t see how we blew the budget on likes of Sterling and Dowell? They were free transfers. Plus neither has really had a chance yet to impress so wouldn’t include them in the put down
Beale blew the budget on the 3 donkeys up front. Best part of £15m on 3 forwards who combined haven’t scored more goals than our right back
Dreadful.
14.) 07 Dec 2023 01:39:35
Wonder if hearts would take danillo, dessers and lammers for shankland? ?suppose we could throw jack in too.
15.) 07 Dec 2023 02:46:59
I’ve heard a few people worry about resale value. Is the most important thing not scoring goals and winning games. We can’t have a team of players under 25 just so they can be resold.
16.) 07 Dec 2023 06:34:49
I agree Blue89 as winning trophies is the no.1 target for me also mate ? I do realise it's a bit of both but if we chose to go and try and sign shankland as the guy to get us at least 20 goals season on season, then resale value on him is in pale significance to what he could possibly bring to the table, for me anyway ?.
17.) 07 Dec 2023 07:39:00
Blue / SWS - We need a blend of youth and experience - for years we have rewarded service and not all those who have been given extended contracts warranted it - we have been left in a hole by previous regimes (asleep at wheel etc etc) - it is a business we run too so do need some players with a resale value and not just pension seekers - we may need a little hurt for longer term gain but we have too many senior players just treading water at present and taking big bucks from the club and giving little trophies in return! IMO.
18.) 07 Dec 2023 09:16:25
Shankland or Miovski. The business needs done!
Danilo has turned in to Dessers and almost all hope is lost.
Last night should have been 5 or 6 nil but we missed absolute sitters.
At this point Tav would be best playing up front.
Sterling actually looked a bit of player, and that was well out of position.
Cifu played well and just needs more game time.
Need to find another Ross McCausland with a left foot for our left wing lol.
19.) 07 Dec 2023 09:19:25
Thought sterling looked a prospect when he came on, guy needs a run before we can say he's a dud like lammers and dessers, those 2 have had way too many opportunities and blew every one of them,2 empty jerseys so goodbye to the pair of them!
20.) 07 Dec 2023 10:22:47
Theres no chance we're going to buy a 31-year-old - shankland with zero sell on value.
21.) 07 Dec 2023 10:38:14
He (Shankland) is 28 Paul86 - we do need goals so if buying him, we would need to take a potential hit! Up to PC and the moneymen where we go from here.
22.) 07 Dec 2023 10:49:22
Shankland ain't 31 years old Paul86 ?.
23.) 07 Dec 2023 11:52:33
Shankland would cost too much, bound to be better options available.
24.) 07 Dec 2023 12:21:35
Ffs Paul you just adding 3 years oan everybody now? ?♂️.
25.) 07 Dec 2023 12:23:50
Abu Dhabi again nonsense from you. You have no credit posting anymore about transfer activity. In the summer you guaranteed x, y and z about players being sold before we can buy etc which was all nonsense. Negative fans like you are what drag us down.
26.) 07 Dec 2023 13:43:45
Yeah why not eh? ???? god knows where i read that ?? still prefer miovski i think.
27.) 07 Dec 2023 14:34:54
A few mill on shankland is well earth it as its no risk we know he will do well, we know what we are getting, a proven striker home and away, Scottish international, n no problem finding the net.
28.) 07 Dec 2023 14:48:12
I would rather pay the money for the lad miovski from Aberdeen than get Shankland. Has shown he is just as good a finisher but at 24 will give us that bit extra should he develop into a better player.
As for this window our business has to be similar to last January where we brought in Cantwell and Raskin for way below market value as both entered last 6 months. We will possibly bring in a couple on loan and I reckon anything else will be pre contracts for next season. I don't see big money being spent unless we move players on that just aren't a good fit. Send a few out on loan.
29.) 07 Dec 2023 15:01:42
Can’t see us getting Shankland in January, if a deal is possible it will be the summer when a year left on his deal, as a Rangers fan he just has to say not signing another deal or going anywhere else other than ibrox, so they either take the deal or keep him for the season, us wasting money in the summer is going to haunt us in the January market, difficult to get rid or bring in, to be fair on Danilo his play outside the box has been fine, getting in the positions is fine but instinctive finishing has let him down, the next games up too jan are huge for him.
30.) 07 Dec 2023 15:41:30
We are not getting miovski
I think he's a great finisher but some of his general play is poor and we would not pay Aberdeen the 4million they want.
31.) 07 Dec 2023 16:05:40
Plus Shankland bodied a few Gers players including Lunny last night. Shanks looks solid.
32.) 07 Dec 2023 16:36:45
Shankland has great body strength ally.
33.) 07 Dec 2023 16:49:09
Would take both Miovski and Shankland any day before those we have currently . Roofe excluded, who's unfortunately a waste of a wage. Kevin Nisbet another we should have gone for. Need to be hoovering up the talent succeeding in our league before buying duds from abroad.
34.) 07 Dec 2023 17:24:28
Gms nisbet just as injury prone as roofe.
35.) 08 Dec 2023 02:21:22
Anyone else hearing rangers trying to put a package together for sima on a perm deal
a few people have said it now but nobody I would say has inside knowledge
Anyone any info on this?
36.) 08 Dec 2023 02:54:34
Gofor PC has said he will have talks with Sima and that he would like to keep him if it's possible. So every chance we are looking into it.
37.) 08 Dec 2023 08:44:07
I think Lowry could be the key to a deal with Hearts regarding Shankland as long as we get a good sell on deal.
38.) 08 Dec 2023 09:10:52
Scrambled, a sell on and a buy back for Lowry would be good.
39.) 08 Dec 2023 12:01:32
Here we go usual suspects with Danilo is as bad as rest because he missed a couple of shots! Fricken laughable.
40.) 08 Dec 2023 13:59:32
Sir Walter do u think shankland would be our penalty taker as I don’t see him scoring 20 league goals in league if he doesn’t.
09 Sep 2023 19:12:18
Do any of the lads who have inside details know if it true MB been sacked?
1.) 09 Sep 2023 21:43:02
No info but hope so he’s an enigma.
2.) 09 Sep 2023 22:36:38
Azul he's certainly in mega trouble,
His in game tactics were very poor and our strikers seem to aim neg.

A don't think the final discussion has been made for new manager think there be a short list and interviews.
1.) 26 Apr 2025 21:59:55
As long as its not Russell Martin Al be happy.
2.) 26 Apr 2025 22:27:10
Seems like we have passed that stage from recent things being said.
3.) 26 Apr 2025 23:34:19
Ehl and asathor say different mate.
26 Apr 2025 14:08:31
What does Danilo have 2 do 2 start a game is BF doing what's best for the team or himself.
1.) 26 Apr 2025 14:28:16
For himself, i asked a question the other day, is he keeping the old guard playing to keep them in the shop window, instead of a team selection for the future he should be selecting teams for the future, the old guard have had their chance
IMHO he should be selecting teams with the future in mind.
2.) 26 Apr 2025 14:49:34
I don't think even Barry knows what he's doing.
3.) 26 Apr 2025 14:44:26
No idea what this line up is all about.
24 Apr 2025 16:23:46
Russell Martin favorite for Norwich job.
1.) 24 Apr 2025 17:36:08
He can be favourite for the norwich job all he wants because he's already got the Rangers job mate ?.
2.) 24 Apr 2025 17:36:36
Praise the Lord ??.
3.) 24 Apr 2025 17:46:48
Heard that too Coops???.
4.) 24 Apr 2025 17:52:25
Jeezy peeps.
5.) 24 Apr 2025 18:19:02
I heard he is job sharing both and will also be available for any other club where the bookies are willing to fleece the fans.
6.) 24 Apr 2025 18:27:23
So its not mourinho, dyche, terzic, or rose sws?
7.) 24 Apr 2025 18:33:09
I really hope Russell Martin gets nowhere near the Rangers job, and Brendan would quaking in his boots with that appointment ????.
8.) 24 Apr 2025 19:05:24
I have a funny feeling unfortunately it's Russel Martin. Just feel it.
9.) 24 Apr 2025 19:34:55
Paul86 open your ears my friend ? I've said for ages marco rose imho will be our new manager ? How's that ?.
10.) 24 Apr 2025 20:21:45
There is no danger Martin will be the next Rangers manager.
11.) 24 Apr 2025 21:54:13
Sws in all seriousness you've touted Martin and Rose who do you think will get it and who do you want? .
12.) 24 Apr 2025 22:29:22
OWS agree and tbh there have been so many touted by him I actually can't remember who was the one he wanted. I feel an 'I told you so' moment coming on whenever the manager is announced. and tonight Kevin I am going to be Sean Dyche (sorry stars in their eyes)
24 Apr 2025 16:11:17
If wee bring in players on loan and pay a fee does that go towards ffp rules.
1.) 24 Apr 2025 16:28:03
East Belfast, yes.
2.) 24 Apr 2025 16:31:11
Yeah, anything we pay for players - salaries, loan fees, agent fees, signing on fees, bonuses, transfer fees, transfer and ons - all feeds in to the Uefa Cost Control calculations.
Which period they are accounted in can be tweaked with some creative accounting - however I understand that Uefa are looking in to some of these 'loop holes'.
3.) 24 Apr 2025 17:44:33
Thanks for clearing that up.
4.) 24 Apr 2025 17:46:56
Do yous expect a couple from leeds with no fee attached.
5.) 24 Apr 2025 18:06:39
East Belfast no as Leeds need to generate income to meet psr rules.
6.) 24 Apr 2025 18:07:30
Doubt it East - most of the transfer work for the summer window has been done.
7.) 24 Apr 2025 18:42:31
Loan fees, salary of player. you get nothin for nothing these days.
8.) 24 Apr 2025 19:09:44
It was reported on here yesterday that it was said at the meeting that FFP wouldn't be an issue for the new owners investing in the playing staff.
9.) 24 Apr 2025 22:31:25
That could be because they don't plan on spending any money over what they would be allowed to under FFP rules. It may be as you interpret that we will just spend and have enough income to not break the rules. my question would be where does the income come from?
23 Apr 2025 22:20:49
Story on line seems klopps name is getting mentioned now seems BF got a fight on his hands lol ?.
1.) 24 Apr 2025 07:40:08
If klopp was even remotely available for us there would be no fight mate ??.
2.) 24 Apr 2025 14:32:14
???.
27 Apr 2025 17:43:11
Got sent that mate lol.
25 Apr 2025 20:22:14
Forever, i think youre right mate 100% i know u said it as a joke but it makes sense. jose would keep Leeds in the Prem league first season that's their main aim i would guess.
25 Apr 2025 16:40:30
I think he's going to be Leeds new manager and we're geting the Leeds manager.
20 Apr 2025 21:12:33
Hes had a very poor season, i don't get him at all.
17 Apr 2025 18:04:13
Utter pish talk.
26 Apr 2025 18:04:50
Just cause he plays a defensive style doesn't mean he's any good at it.
26 Apr 2025 18:02:11
Not at all.
24 Apr 2025 19:54:05
A like the Stuttgart manager fork Germany has a lot of young manager coming threw.
24 Apr 2025 17:46:56
Do yous expect a couple from leeds with no fee attached.
24 Apr 2025 17:44:33
