Use our rumours form to send us rangers transfer rumours.
10 Dec 2020 23:12:44
Just glad that SG is the manager and not us , we all posted about what team and how we should play both today's game and Sunday's game and he presto he comes up trump again. Yes he sees these players every day and knows that they can be trusted to carry out their duties that's the part that we don't know.
Well done Itten.
11 Dec 2020 01:14:04
Said all week he would change the team, be madness not too at this stage, some ridiculed that but others could see the message behind it and the reduced risk of serious injury,
11 Dec 2020 01:16:47
And would now not be in the least surprising that alfie has not now finally got his way and is offski in January, new boy from Colombia all but done apparently.
11 Dec 2020 07:08:07
Not sure who ridiculed it Tom. People entitled to their opinion.
Also some one needs to meet our value for Morelos for him to go.
10 Dec 2020 22:32:21
Folks had a wee nosy at the dark side there. It's still about the Rangers and our players are busting a gut for SG. While their players are training to their weakest link. This year has broken their whole being from fans to the top. Talking about a complete rebuild lol. I know I will anger a few on here by posting this I apologise. But I can't add to any of the positive comments it's excellent I hope we can all gel behind the world famous. So happy the way things are going for Rangers it's like being a child getting excited about santa. It surely is a BLUE CHRISTMAS. Enjoy fellow bears.
10 Dec 2020 22:04:31
Heard a rumour not sure how much truth is in it though just passing on what a heard that Shane Duffy wears Connor goldson pyjamas to bed heard it from a good source 😂😂.
10 Dec 2020 21:44:45
Item should start Sunday no if buts or maybe outstanding tonight, Alfredo has been very poor that’s me being kind, the big man is in form tail is up let him play!
10 Dec 2020 21:55:03
Aye right 🤣🤣 item.
10 Dec 2020 22:06:14
He’s definitely earned the start that’s for sure.
10 Dec 2020 22:09:23
Absolutely, was brilliant tonight. Should be played through the middle.
10 Dec 2020 22:12:02
Aye oh rite barrowlad predictive text 🤣🤣
ITTEN ITTEN ITTEN🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌.
10 Dec 2020 22:40:02
Fredo will start.
10 Dec 2020 23:13:56
Itten has to start, the other option is an empty jersey who is towing a caravan. He's absolutely awful I'm afraid, shouldn't be in contention to start.
11 Dec 2020 06:15:36
Blue would do. How dare you say that its his new role he plays just makes him look bad. :)
11 Dec 2020 06:31:00
That's nonsense morelos ain't been at is best but you don't get to december in an unbeaten team playing most weeks being rubbish. Folk need to lay off him the goals will come and he's giving 100% back our players! He's contributing to the team or he wouldn't be in it pure and simple.
11 Dec 2020 06:48:42
Yet BBD your manager disagrees with you!
10 Dec 2020 21:44:17
Itten was brilliant tonight he looked a different player after his goal hope the lad kicks on now. Really like the look of Zungu aswell great option.
10 Dec 2020 21:35:35
I think if the manky mob win a meaningless game tonight we should ask wee sturgie if we could do a clap every Thursday for their xmas.
10 Dec 2020 21:55:54
👏👏👏😁😁.
10 Dec 2020 21:29:43
Heads or Tails.
Both sides of the Rangers currency are just as shiny as the other. Great to see so many getting a start tonight - anything else would just be a scunner. We've proved yet again that the quality of our squad is second to none. A group full of quality a group we have won. We have perhaps one or two humpty dumptys who simply can't be put back together again but all of the kings horses and all of the kings men will soon enough bring us back to glory and stop the ten.
Fifty Five is bang on nigh and the pigs from the piggery are back in their sty.
10 Dec 2020 21:29:15
Well I spoke too soon haha.
10 Dec 2020 21:28:28
Will actually be beneficial for us if Celtic win the night, helps the co efficient and it's pointless to them so even when they win, if they win it helps the co efficient for automatic qualification.
10 Dec 2020 21:05:53
It's amazing to be a Rangers supporter right now. I've been following since the late 70s and supported through thick and thin. Right now I genuinely expect us to win all our games. A great feeling to have returned after a long stint of dreading results. Mr Struth predicted these highs and lows. No trophies yet but hopefully the great run continues. Onwards fellow bears. I'm normally a grumpy git but tonight I'm buzzing 😜.
10 Dec 2020 20:56:52
Kris Boyd just said (on Sky Sports News) that Celtic have issued more statements than victories over the last two month 😂😂
Kris, take a bow mate, well done.
10 Dec 2020 21:35:41
Did you see the grin 😂😂.
11 Dec 2020 01:19:33
Just put a big fat target on his back, and a helluva fall god forbid.
10 Dec 2020 20:56:44
Does anyone know how much we will receive for each win and topping the table?
10 Dec 2020 21:09:31
500k for a win I think its 170k for a draw and 1million for winning the group.
10 Dec 2020 21:18:28
Think we get a million. Benfica get 1/ 2 a million.
10 Dec 2020 21:19:28
Stuck.
Qualifier 260000
Qualifier280000
Play off 300000
Qualify group stage 2920000 euros
Victory 570000 euro x4
Draw 190000 euro x2
Group winner 1000000.
10 Dec 2020 21:21:16
Think its 260 grand a point plus 900000 for winning the group.
10 Dec 2020 22:40:40
Ban her these figures I post are exact not a guess.
11 Dec 2020 08:32:00
cheers John, £8 Million+ so far is a fantastic return for our Club.
11 Dec 2020 08:46:36
Irvger u r right. Tv money next round is very good as well especially with them out. we get full share of money coming to Scotland.
Example English clubs get quarter share each as four went through.
10 Dec 2020 20:38:16
Another good performance from the team tonight.
Thought itten played very well and just needs game time which is hard because of the size of our squad these days.
Onwards and upwards and hopefully another 3 points on Sunday in another must win game.
10 Dec 2020 20:47:53
Took his goal beautifully.
10 Dec 2020 20:49:59
We won butdont think we played well but done enough n zungà well il no say.
10 Dec 2020 21:05:43
Given the changes we made, that was a very good performance once we settled down.
Could have been more than 2
But take it and move on
onward and upward.
10 Dec 2020 21:15:27
I thought we played well. The only real chance they had was the header over the bar at the start of the game. Making that many changes and still looking very comfortable was great. Job done and on we go.
10 Dec 2020 21:27:21
It's easy to see how a good few clubs want to sign glen kamara! He's a helluva midfielder, who just glides past opponents with ease 👌His technical passing ability is immense and we'll do well to keep kamara at rangers, beyond the summer 😞His style reminds me of former arsenal midfielder patrick vieira and shades of chelsea midfielder kante in there also for me. If he can be anywhere near as good as these 2 he'll go on to play in one of europe's top leagues, for a very big club 👌.
10 Dec 2020 21:56:15
Kamara is the business.
10 Dec 2020 20:21:36
Less than 3 years ago the gaffer inherited a squad that were knocked out of Europe in the 1st qualifying round against a team of part-time footballers. Tonight we topped our group with 14 points and no defeats whilst finishing the final game of the stage with a better 11 than we started because now we can do sort of thing 👍🏼🇬🇧.
10 Dec 2020 20:12:06
So we made a few changes. Stevie has spoke about depth in squad and what other players will bring. Tonight my fellow Bears I see this in abundance. Right back covered, centre mid covered. These spots were our worry and the South African lad given a few games will be immense never a square pass always forward and yeah sometimes it didn’t come off but he has vision.
Now I’ve got a question for all of us. In previous seasons in Europe we have sat and thought he might be a good addition or it could make our team better. Apart from a few Benfica players is there really anyone we’ve seen and thought yeah he’d make a difference?
10 Dec 2020 20:27:44
Commentators tonight mentioned the stats of the Poznan striker (dunno his name) . Not to say him specifically but it was something like 14 goals in domestic and 5 in Europe so far this season. These are the markets and the teams we should be looking at players for, provided the age is right. Young hungry lads wanting to make a name for themselves that we can get early are what we want. Sell for profit after a few years.
10 Dec 2020 20:49:29
Liked the look of tapsoba from liege. iege goalie was also decent.
10 Dec 2020 21:03:22
Mikael ishak Swedish striker he isn’t young tho he’s 27.
10 Dec 2020 21:12:42
1 or 2 liege players and 3 or 4 Benfica players i'd take. Itten was good tonight, just as well as Alfredo is really toiling.
10 Dec 2020 19:58:04
another win another clean sheet . most points by a scottish team in euro group stage . does it get any better? lad show about putting a couple of bob into the food appeal above it will help someone this xmas and it also makes you feel good . pay day tomorrow spare a wee bit .
10 Dec 2020 20:35:57
Steven Gerrard's record as rangers manager in europe since he came has been stunning to say the least guys 👌He's done some job from what he inherited in 2018 and as well as europe, he's getting it spot on domestically, after 2 years of building up to this! We were very comfortable against lech Poznan tonight, even allowing for all the personnel changes 👍No matter what rangers player takes to the field, they all know their job and are well versed from our management team on this 👍I thought all our team done well tonight and again it was a very comfortable, professional job. I thought big itten took his goal extremely well and led the line superbly, in his more natural position! He was my motm 👌 Thought zungu also had a very good game!
10 Dec 2020 21:59:44
Wee prague striker that scored a few against glasgows 2nd best team 😁.
10 Dec 2020 19:54:14
Another emphatic and professional job done tonight, all of the players coming in tonight were magnificent, Itten deserves to start on Sunday with Roofe at Tannadice. Young Patterson showed a lot of composure for a young man, and is a definite prospect for the future. Two terrific goals again tonight and, another clean sheet. Well done boys, keep it going.
10 Dec 2020 20:42:38
Fredo will start on Sunday not itten.
10 Dec 2020 20:47:47
Of course our defence has to be complimented on these clean sheets but a mention also for the rest of the players in front of them who protect our defence, by defending from the front 3 back into our midfield 3 which it should be! The way our midfield 3 and front 3 work in closing the opposition down by constant high pressing has definitely also contributed to our defence not losing goals, as our defence is rarely constantly under pressure because they're getting protected by our midfield 3 and our front 3.So its a full team effort to how we're hardly conceding any goals 👌.
10 Dec 2020 20:50:55
Felt sorry for young patterson I'd have gave him thr 90 mins. He was excellent.
10 Dec 2020 20:54:40
Totally agree Irvger every player looks comfortable with the ball. I’m looking at a lot of games now with good teams playing and thinking that we are a better football team than a lot of them.
10 Dec 2020 20:58:17
Emphatic naw profesional aye.
10 Dec 2020 21:04:57
Herewego I get Paterson was just starting to feel the pace, good time to take him out. He had a good game.
10 Dec 2020 21:09:22
Agreed Herewego, he looked VERY good, never missed Tav. He defended well and pushed forward as often as Tav. Well done son.
10 Dec 2020 22:30:58
KJA9, what do you base Alfie starting on Sunday on, he's not been doing the business for months, Itten is champing at the bit for a run, and I think quite a few agree he's earned it.
10 Dec 2020 19:53:23
I feel sorry for the Poznan fans because they missed the chance to see the famous Glasgow Rangers.
We are on a high just amazing to see everyones atitude and desire to win.
Well done guys
So proud to be a bluenose.
10 Dec 2020 19:51:43
We topped our group the Tim's are poop!
10 Dec 2020 20:51:44
I'm sitting with a bowl of soup.
10 Dec 2020 21:38:26
On yer hoop?
10 Dec 2020 22:01:10
Lennon's gone loop de loop 🤣🤣.
10 Dec 2020 22:23:46
Ittens as good as Davie Coop!
10 Dec 2020 19:51:37
Great game by Itten. Held ball up well, nice touches and link play and scored a good goal. Anyone reckon he deserves to start ahead of Morelos on Sunday? I do!
10 Dec 2020 20:43:12
Naw I would go with fredo.
10 Dec 2020 20:59:11
Defo alfie.
10 Dec 2020 21:06:20
Brw absolutely not. However, he will be a real asset. Remember he has had no close season, I see him as a major asset next season.
10 Dec 2020 19:51:32
Fantastic performance from our boys. Each and everyone of them should be proud. Let's park it up for a few weeks and concentrate on the big one. Absolutely love the Teddy Bears 🧸
Live it up 🥳🎊🎉🎈🍻.
10 Dec 2020 20:26:57
A few months.
10 Dec 2020 19:50:00
Good team performance tonight.
Itten, Zungu and Paterson all had good games.
Popcorn at the ready for the other lots game 🤣😂
🔴⚪🔵.
10 Dec 2020 19:56:37
Bluebell as did McLaughlin.
10 Dec 2020 20:00:22
Superb I couldn't be happier😁
Another clean sheet 3pts top the group brilliant Rangers
I've never in my life looked forward to watching so many Celtic games and hopefully they lose another 4 goals just to keep up the consistency levels.
10 Dec 2020 20:26:38
Yes john25,
McLaughlin too was solid as usual mate.
Great squad performance.
10 Dec 2020 19:40:24
Brilliant! We are like an unstoppable wrecking ball with quality all over the squad. Alex Rae just saying we have had 16 different scorers. Must be some kind of record. Well done Rangers. We have not won anything yet but this is looking so good. Let's just bludgeon ourselves to the treble and give the Europa League teams a right scare. You just never know.
10 Dec 2020 20:25:50
Seeker I remember Alex McLeish team of 03 having something similar goals were well shared around the team.
10 Dec 2020 20:53:24
Thi k that's 17 now as I don't think haji had scored this season.
10 Dec 2020 21:07:14
Hagi had one goal, I think motherwell.
10 Dec 2020 19:33:21
Itten was excellent tonight I would start him against **** dee utd.
10 Dec 2020 19:24:39
Topped the group well done lads #55.
10 Dec 2020 18:54:03
see suttons face at half time, he is going into meltdown. you can see its draining the life out of him.
10 Dec 2020 19:56:33
Yeah he can’t handle it.
10 Dec 2020 20:31:08
Hes not his usual smug faced self at the moment.
I wonder what's changed 🤣🤣
🔴⚪🔵.
10 Dec 2020 18:46:37
Itten through middle is superb can't waste him out on wing anymore what a goal.
10 Dec 2020 17:51:45
Lets remain calm n hope IF things don't go as we want/ hope/ expect. we remain level headed n positive.
10 Dec 2020 17:29:41
I never anticipated that many changes but really looking forward to seeing Zungu and Kamara starting together.
Also interested to see Patterson at this level - I know he's highly rated by Gerrard.
And it's great to see Itten get a start as the main striker tonight.
In Gerrard We Trust.
10 Dec 2020 18:57:34
Great to see the strength in the squad, we are looking like a proper well organised football club at last both on and off the pitch, gerrard and his staff coming good, long may it continue
Great stuff RFC.
10 Dec 2020 19:23:26
Benfica getting beat.
10 Dec 2020 16:55:34
I know a few people were debating to rest some players but is their any need for gary McAllister to be on the bench. 😂😂
According to flash score he's a sub 🤣🤣🔴⚪🔵.
10 Dec 2020 17:47:34
If team is true am totally puzzled 🤔🤔.
10 Dec 2020 18:41:45
Fresh legs. Looking comfortable.
10 Dec 2020 19:24:36
We're winning benfica getting beat.
10 Dec 2020 21:50:45
Sack the manager, eh, dsgers? 😂.
10 Dec 2020 16:45:21
Interesting team looking forward to match. Going for us 3-1.
10 Dec 2020 18:53:48
I've went 3-0 banx.,
Hope one of us are correct 🤞
🔴⚪🔵.
10 Dec 2020 18:55:38
Nah Banxger 2 - 0 to us clean sheet again I hope mate.
10 Dec 2020 20:33:02
Hope you had bet on bluebilly 😁👍.
10 Dec 2020 16:43:03
Great looking line up have already qualified Certainly not playing our strongest side. did say after we went through would like paterson invovled hopefullt barjonas gets a half too.
10 Dec 2020 16:51:15
Makes sense to rest a few Key players. 👍.
10 Dec 2020 16:53:20
Good luck to young Patterson tonight. Also looking to see how Itten, Hagi and Zunga handle themselves.
10 Dec 2020 17:12:40
Let’s us see how some players step up especially young paterson.
10 Dec 2020 19:58:50
Fair play to team performance, itten zungu look players.
McLaughlin ready made replacement for mcgregor.
10 Dec 2020 13:45:46
Has any scottish team ever went through European group unbeaten?
10 Dec 2020 14:21:14
Aberdeen won a European trophy 1984 ; 85 according to google search Davie mate.
10 Dec 2020 14:26:30
Don't know about EC, however, I'm sure Rangers went through the very first Champions League campaign 92/ 93 season unbeaten? In fact, I believe they were the only unbeaten team in the competition that season?
That's some achievement!
10 Dec 2020 15:02:27
A bit of witty sarcasm bluebilly😂👍.
10 Dec 2020 15:43:44
Back in the day, it was a straight knockout in Europe, perhaps 5 or 6 games to reach the final. Nowadays, it is a much tougher task.
10 Dec 2020 16:25:11
Well someone had to Coldo my friend.
10 Dec 2020 16:52:14
Had me laughing Bluebilly😂👍.
10 Dec 2020 11:32:36
Is it true the Celtic kick off time has been put back tonight to after the watershed? On account of the last few euro games been live coverage of them getting sh*gged?
10 Dec 2020 16:29:05
Nah, it's no true that it's been put back Snell mate but the other bit is true.
10 Dec 2020 16:57:38
Think it's just been changed to BT adult channel but still same kick off time. 😂🤣😂.
10 Dec 2020

10 Dec 2020 16:33:28
Nice Christmas card to send to your celt supporters (that's if we have any just now) Bob mate.
10 Dec 2020 10:40:00
Morning guys another big game tonight if we win can top the group which would be an incredible achievement given the group
We're in
We have all enjoyed the performances of our captain Tav
But would Also like to have a shout out For big goldson just like Tav the big man never misses a game not sure how many in total he has played, but I bet you can count on one hand how many he has missed same as Tav
He is another brilliant professional and a role model to young kids coming into football you never hear any bad press from on field or off field just like Tavernier
2 of them very high class professionals and deserve a lot of credit for how they behave play every game and keep themselves in good condition.
10 Dec 2020 10:51:57
Here here Stigno.
10 Dec 2020 11:16:07
Here here stig!
When you consider what big Connor's been through it's testament to the character of the big man that he's an absolute colossus who never misses a game! It's clearly evident that him and Tav are the leaders of this special bunch of players.
10 Dec 2020 11:58:25
Correct re Goldston, given games lad missed he just wants to play all the time. What is good for me neither defender misses games due to suspension.
10 Dec 2020 12:14:00
The lack of crowds helps understand the vocal part of some players and have heard both Tav and Goldson are the ones dictating when to press and when to fall back. Really important part of the game.
10 Dec 2020 12:45:50
I like goldson he really solid defender I think he worked a lot on his physique he seem a lot more solid than he was when he first arrived all down to get attitude and coaching.
10 Dec 2020 15:47:18
Tavernier and Goldson were two players heavily criticised last season. Look at them now. Get behind our players. I was in the shower this morning and on the radio came 'Simply the Best', our Ibrox anthem. An omen for tonight and this season. I hope my friends and acquaintances in the Ibrox Bar, Costa Adeje, Tenerife are enjoying this season within the constraints of the C.V.. How I long to get back there and see big George and sing the songs of the Famous. 2 or 3-0 to the Famous tonight.
10 Dec 2020 15:53:37
The difference in tav and goldson this year is night and day, both were very indecisive defensively. Maybe the lack of pressure from fans is helping, maybe both have just upped their game or maybe its a bit of both but we are certainly reaping the benefits. Both outstanding this year. 👍.
10 Dec 2020 09:45:49
Changes for me tonight:
Mcgregor
Tav Goldson Balogun Barasic
Arfield Zungu (Kamara/ Aribo)
Hagi Morelos (Aribo/ Barker)
Would keep morelos in tonight as feel he is playing well but needs a goal, he loves europe also.
Not huge changes but would look to rest Kent, Roofe, Davis and Maybe Kamara.
If we can get ahead in the game we could make changes to rest maybe tav or Goldson?
Is Patterson Available?
10 Dec 2020 10:21:28
Barker? Really?
I would be tempted to rest McGregor as well to be honest.
10 Dec 2020 11:11:25
I hope that's Ronnie Barker your on about.
10 Dec 2020 11:36:13
Hes the next choice probably for wide man, for me i'd rather aribo up there however it depends on whether he choses to rest Kamara or not. If we are resting Roofe and Kent like i think we might then who do we go for? Only really leaves Barker or Middleton.
However i did realise after the post i missed out Itten, as i thought he had a knock, If he's fit he starts.
10 Dec 2020 09:22:51
Team for tonight
McGregor
Tav
Goldson
Balagun
Barasic
Itten
Arfield
Zunga
Aribo
Kent
Morelos.
10 Dec 2020 09:46:48
I left Itten out my side as i heard he might have a knock, however he'd start for me tonight if fit.
Id look to rest kent tonight and would be shocked if hagi doesn't come back in.
10 Dec 2020 11:59:25
Is roofe suspended tonight.

It's all about the banner 😂😂😂.

{Ed's Note - Ed001 has posted a new article entitled, A To Z: Leicester City
09 Dec 2020 23:55:09
Jeezo boys what’s happening here, went over to the dark side to see what vile they’re spouting about is today and all I could see were comments about how our players are bursting a gut for Gerrard, how our players are much fitter than theirs, how good Tav is and he could score a penalty against any keeper, and that minus his penalties he’s still 8 goals and 10 assists which is really good etc. It must be the season of good will, or is reality finally setting in 😂.
10 Dec 2020 04:18:44
That can't be true it must be a conspiracy.
10 Dec 2020 07:33:36
They will get no good will from me. Christmas or not. They are $h! t€, terrible and have turned into a complete laughing stock. I hope Lille take a few tonight and make them the worst performers in Europa league history.
Celtic the banter years is now is full swing!
10 Dec 2020 08:45:52
Personally AlloaGer, i wouldn't go anywhere near their sites mate. It doesn't surprise me they know everything about tav🤔They know more about tav and everything rangers more than you and me, because their obsessed with rangers mate, its a disease they've always had 😁.
10 Dec 2020 09:14:48
Hoping for a solid Celtic performance tonight and a win.
Might be enough to keep Lennon in place for a few more months.
10 Dec 2020 10:29:21
SGL I don't search the dark side either. I'm obsessed with the Rangers 🇬🇧 onwards and upwards people ✋.
