Use our rumours form to send us rangers transfer rumours.

!

Jackie McNamara has warned Rangers manager Steven Gerrard that he is unlikely to get what he wants after his comments on Alfredo Morelos.

If he's dishing out warnings, i'm a away down to Asda George to get a pack a five boxers before they sell out.



12 Jul 2019 20:31:41
Asda George pack of 5 that good?



12 Jul 2019 21:52:42
I see what you mean, for any normal adversary they would suffice but for Don Mcnamara maybe I should upgrade to M n S.



12 Jul 2019 22:05:06
Agent Jackie has been tasked by the celtic boardroom to deflect attention away from the powers that be at parkhead.

"Right Jackie we need you to talk all things rangers, don't mention us cause we need more deflection away from our plans"

"OK Pete tell Desmond to put the usual back hander into the usual pacific shelf account cheers pal"

Now all things rangers are been talked about by celtic men to hide the fact we will be selling off players mentioned in the leaked document to cover our summer spending spree its job done.


So here we are we have the mutton Sutton stating quiet cause he is currently hiding under the stairs screaming dave showed us the money omg rangers have money arrrrghhhh

Now this fool Jackie bumping his gums labelling us unable to shunt a late bid for our players. Been stated we don't need to sell our top players just clean out ones not deemed good enough. Even if there was a late bid we didn't want to knock back am sure as we don't drag our heels there will be a replacement ready to be signed with the money we received for any player sold.

That's the difference we don't rely on 30m+ CL money every year as we ain't been there hahaha but celtic have no matter what they and the fans state are heavily reliant on said income without it. Well the leaked document states as much sell ntcham rogic teirney and possibly magregor.

With the news from lennon teirney is nursing an injury well he won't be going not for anywhere near the money u lot want. Rogic injuries state the same nobody will pay for a sick note, ntcham well the only 2 teams interested say u want to much so he won't be sold, leaves magregor I see him been the 1 sold on deadline day.


Your replies are greatly awaited.



12 Jul 2019 22:25:00
Slip two pair of the Asda ones on that should cover it.



13 Jul 2019 01:47:47
Blackwoodbear, that's a great idea, the cheaper ASDA elastic should hold in the short term and the extra material absorbent enough if the Godfarter targets our area with threats.



12 Jul 2019 19:10:36
I hope our gaffer isn't too disappointed Jackie mcnamarra is telling him he might have no choice is late bids come in for Fredo! why is he now the Oracle of all things Rangers? Imagine getting paid to be one of the obsessed.



12 Jul 2019 23:06:45
Where can I find this macnamara stuff?
No wait a minute, who gives a toss?



13 Jul 2019 07:29:10
He has cottened on to the fact that to get famous again he needs to talk about the Rangers again. There was me thinking "its all about the Rangers" was just a bit of banter. Funny that?



12 Jul 2019 17:46:13
Based on the below statement are Hibs a new club and should they be stripped of their entire history/ honours.

Any Bydand (Hibs), Celtic or any other supporters willing to raise their heads and comment.

STATEMENT
The Board of Hibernian have announced that the majority shareholding in the club has passed from HFC Holdings - owned by Sir Tom Farmer and Rod Petrie - to Bydand Sports LLC - a new company set up for that purpose by US businessman Ronald Gordon.



12 Jul 2019 17:58:34
Personally mate I would stoop to their level with this, understand the point though.



12 Jul 2019 18:02:59
Obviously should read “wouldn’t”.



12 Jul 2019 18:06:38
High Hello Hello, i'm taking the Michael as we all know the facts just hoping for some comedy gold from some Bydand supporters. Cheerio Hello Hello, dam, you need a name, LOL. ATB.



12 Jul 2019 19:39:55
That is the name of the majority shareholders company, what'the name of your majority shareholders, bet you will have to look it up to see what King and his associates call themselves.



12 Jul 2019 20:32:37
Whats the rules on here, catch and release or can we take one home for the pot.



12 Jul 2019 20:37:10
St Joseph's minor tweak? We could field U16 or girls team and walk it.



12 Jul 2019 17:31:46
Team for second leg against St Josephine's then? All change or minor tweak?



12 Jul 2019 17:49:26
Would be excellent to see a few young boys getting a run out, it’s still preseason though and think some first team players would benefit from 90 minutes as well.



12 Jul 2019 18:34:37
Just seen Liverpool going to be very reticent to let us have Kent next season. IAH think it's a reflection on his performance for bears last season. Don't know situation. If Pool take him back, under contract, do we have to wait until end contract before showing interest. Know lot on here don't rate and think better worth elsewhere. But I challenge bears to show me another class player poss. available for 10m. Still think we wave 10m front of pool and he shows his heart with gers, regular 1st team and European football might swing it.



12 Jul 2019 18:52:45
Sir rock won't happen, guys need games, also why play youth in Europe when they don't get a game in Scotland.
Mb mcpake will get ten minutes.



12 Jul 2019 19:16:10
Yeah I agree with the game time as I said it’s still preseason. Would be good for a couple to get a run out though!



12 Jul 2019 21:31:15
Sir rock like who mate.



13 Jul 2019 00:12:07
I’d go strong again, go for 7 goals, guys need competitive minutes at this stage:

McGregor

Tavernier
Edmunson
Katic
Barasic

Docherty
Davis
Aribo

Hastie
Defoe
Jones.



13 Jul 2019 07:32:25
Agreed wee bear. That what you mentioned and the fact Stevie said "you won't find me or my team being complacent".



13 Jul 2019 09:37:27
We're not spending £10m on Kent. If he's as good as you say millerbrandwilson and such great value at £10m why isn't there a rush of clubs bidding for him? I think he might still sign, on loan just before the end of the transfer window.



12 Jul 2019 15:15:13
anyone know about charlie allen from linfield?
was in their euro squad at age of 15.
lot of teams after him?
didnt he play for gers in alkass tourney?



12 Jul 2019 15:13:04
I posted this yesterday but never got put up.

Question guys. Ppl on here saying katic will be dropped when helander comes in, I know he was dropped for that duddy worrell last season. But who's to say SG won't go with a 5 at the back but fullbacks push more up or even goldson dropped. I know a long shot but no one knows what the managers thoughts are on this.

Thoughts guys?



12 Jul 2019 16:07:57
Seems unlikely when were already midfield heavy.



12 Jul 2019 16:19:34
Suppose he could do . 5 at the back out of possession and 3 with the possession. Bit risky though If we lose the ball in the middle of the park .



12 Jul 2019 16:40:33
But Supercooper says he knows for a FACT Katic is being dropped and GOLDSON is SG number one, he knows this for a FACT!



12 Jul 2019 16:41:10
It just would not work. He didn't change formation to accomodate defoe. So he's not going to do it for a centre half like katic who he had no prob benching majority last season.



12 Jul 2019 16:57:07
Why change the team, formation etc when it worked wonders towards the end of the season?



12 Jul 2019 17:20:20
I can see your thinking mate but I doubt Gerrard would have brought Ojo and Jones in if he was planning on playing with wing backs. If we get through to the Europa League proper and go deep into the cup competitions there will be plenty of games for Katic, Helander, Goldson and Edumndson to rotate although I fully expect Goldson and Helander to be our preferred centre half pairing this season.



12 Jul 2019 19:16:06
Cheers guys just thinking tho I do like katic and I think he has potential to be a great at us, just don't want to see another good defender go for pennies as we have seen it before.



12 Jul 2019 19:38:19
I would drop Goldson wasn’t impressed with him at all.



12 Jul 2019 19:40:35
That sounds more like a 3-5-2

I think we might change to that in some games when struggling to break teams down but we have signed to many wingers to make that the preferred formation.



12 Jul 2019 14:15:51
Hi fellow bears, just like to get my tuppence in regarding Kent. Although I think he is a good enough player I really don't think he is worth the kind of money being banded about. To be honest I don't really think we need him, although perhaps another loan period would be okay. If we do sell Alf I think the money would be far better spent on an out and out striker, to boost our firepower.



12 Jul 2019 19:32:13
I think a loan with an option to buy would be ideal, as he was showing a wee bit more consistency towards the end of last season and if he was to kick on from there then he would be a +£10M player.



12 Jul 2019 13:40:26
Interesting to hear Koop say Brewster will be in his PL squad with origi next year.
Not sure that leaves a space for Kent.
Also don't know if academy players r out with the 25.



12 Jul 2019 16:08:47
Kent will never make the Liverpool first team.



12 Jul 2019 19:36:58
Youngster don’t count in 25.



12 Jul 2019 21:33:15
Cool gannet.



13 Jul 2019 00:13:54
Loan with a recall very possible then!



12 Jul 2019 12:56:27
According to the transfermarkt Ojo is valued at 2M now we don’t know how much Liverpool would want for him but surely if the price is right we should just buy him and make his loan a permanent one maybe at the end of the season start of the new one. He certainly looks a player.



12 Jul 2019 13:03:02
Liverpool just handed him a new 5 year deal. They would want about same price as they want for kent.



12 Jul 2019 13:08:55
Please stop taking valuations off of transfermarket. com, it talks pish. The fact that he has signed a 5 year contract at Liverpool and that they rate him higher than Kent, a player they apparently want £12 million for, means that we can not and will not be buying him, end of.



12 Jul 2019 13:16:36
Unfortunately, transfermarkt valuation mean SFA. His valuation is whatever his club want for him. End of story. We need to stop going off what a website says someone is valued at or what wage someone is on. None of these things will be disclosed by club or player. It's pure guess-tamation.



12 Jul 2019 13:30:46
Morelos signed a new deal recently, does that have similar effects on his estimate or not because it's the spl.



12 Jul 2019 13:46:59
Transfermarket and youtube eh, makes me chuckle everytime.



12 Jul 2019 16:21:30
Basically agree with the other guys on here . Only worth what someone is willing to pay . Look at Hutton for proof lol.



12 Jul 2019 12:23:03
If we manage to get Filip Helander over the line in the next few days then we will have done well this window. Always fingers crossed for a rabbit out the hat but I’ve always said if we can add 2 players to our starting 11 each window then we are doing good business. Helander should slot in with Goldson to begin with and Aribo will be a starter I’m sure but we’ve also got Ojo who looks like this years Kent, and starts as out right sided forward for me. To top that we’ve managed to hang on to all our best players, so far so good and keep it up all involved!



12 Jul 2019 13:34:24
I think Arfield will play outside right this year as per the last old firm match. That will free up his central role for the likes of Aribo and Doherty to compete over. I think he will try Ojo on the left cutting inside and allowing Barasic to overlap.

Who knows though, there are so many options now! ReLly looking forward to the new season. Think we will have an edge over Celtic with a more settled team and with more running and intensity in the Midfield.



12 Jul 2019 11:22:21
Hi Bears, . Anyone watch the highlights of the Liverpool ztranmere friendly?
Kent on for first half looked lost - a couple of other young guys showing up miles better.
Do we really need him this year?



12 Jul 2019 11:44:24
I’d love to see him up on loan with a view to buy, the only issue is the value, surely he can’t be valued more than 4 with a sell on? He’s good but remember the Bristol City fans couldn’t wait to get rid of him. He’d be our best left winging if he signs.



12 Jul 2019 12:43:08
ive said before kent isn't really needed. jones is overall going to be as good if not better value over a season. He is not a kid so doesn't need coddling.
Ojo will probably do well if his form doesn't crash and burn (thinking ajaria and coulibaly here)
Roofe is the type of player we should go and get irrelevent of whether alf goes. He will be worth twice that as soon as pen hits paper.



12 Jul 2019 13:27:13
If Kent plays well he stays at Liverpool, in the squad. If he wants to return here then he's doing the right thing in not catching Klopp's eye, ergo making it likely he'll be back.



12 Jul 2019 09:44:15
I am an avid reader of this page. And i want to address the constant agro that goes on with people shooting down posts. And when that happens, people sticking up for the fact its a rumours page. As they should. I saw on here first that stevie g was in line to be our manager. I told my mate and he bet me his guitar it was bull. Strat Deluxe in Olympic White for anyone in the know.

Anyway, nice guitar. He obviously lost that bet. And obviously, i never took the guitar. But it shows that the unbelievable can happen and any noise we hear is worth sharing and should be shared without scrutiny. Some of the shooting down is harsh and will put people off passing on what they have heard. Which results in less for all of us that come on here to read. So for once and for all stop slating folk for posting what they hear. Or soon enough there will be no one posting to slate.



12 Jul 2019 10:22:50
Ronaldo seen getting into SG car at Glasgow airport.



12 Jul 2019 10:40:04
Well said Huistra.



12 Jul 2019 12:21:53
👍Good shout some of these “rumours” do materialise.



12 Jul 2019 13:49:44
If your "rumour" deserves to be shot down then it will. People need to stop being snowflakes and taking offence at every given chance.



12 Jul 2019 19:08:07
So says Coldco the pessimist of the site - or is that just a rumour, away an no annoy me.



12 Jul 2019 08:35:52
We will see a few players over the coming weeks being either released from their contract or sold on, some others are being loaned out. A few senior players are being moved on due to injury or do not suit SG future plans - these players are Rangers players until they are released but a few posters on here are calling them 'Deadwood'.

what a horrible use of a word, Rangers Fans should never call Rangers players Deadwood - they may not be playing for all kind of reasons, most of which we do not know.

I have had the unfortunate scenario of being made redundant a couple of times - it is not nice, can be undermining and debilitating. Please choose your words carefully. Our competitors can do the slagging off - we can do the encouragement.



12 Jul 2019 09:29:32
Surplus to requirements, deadwood, not needed is exactly what they are cato. There is only one reason why they are not playing and that's because they are useless. If that's offensive to you then you should wrap yourself in cotton wool and stay indoors mate.



12 Jul 2019 11:01:25
I Cato, unfortunately it’s a big bad world out there!



12 Jul 2019 11:46:00
I suppose if you wan to split hairs, you could class Kranjcar, Clint Hill and Barton as deadwood as they are a the end of the careers. Jason Holt, Herrera and Garner not good enough. Mcrorie, Murphy, Candias, Lafferty and Halliday may find themselves or are surplus to requirements for now or in the near future as we've improved and we are bringing in a better standard of player. Simple as that. However I agree that there are ways to deal with departing players. We want the players to keep supporting as this will help raise the profile all round the world. Such as ex pros going to the conventions or charity and pundit work. It also creates a network that was sadly demolished that enhances our scouting system. We still see and hear some of our ex players talking fondly of the club I for one want that to continue. If any player signs and the gives their all but can't cut it, then we should be decent enough to say cheers, thanks for trying and good luck down the road - don't be a stranger. Coming to Rangers should be seen as a massive challenge to be sought after for a player and not something to be feared but embraced. SG is creating a hard but fair environment and I can't imagine he would ever have a player in his office and say your deadwood and these two guys are here to take you for a drive in the countryside, Pedro might have gone down that route which is not Rangers. SG has in one year raised the standards in how we go about our business in every way, off and on the pitch. If a player takes the piss then this should be dealt with behind closed doors professionally and quickly and in a away that does not leave us open to criticism like any other industry I suppose, negative news is not good for the club. JEES that was a bit longer than I anticipated and i'm not on my high horse BTW just options for discussion and to end on a question - which ex player/ deadwood (LOL) do you think is still doing a good job for us off the pitch. Hatleys decent.



12 Jul 2019 08:28:19
I for one will be very unhappy with the sale of Morelos, I think with another year of 30+ goals and his value could double! Extremely short sighted in my eyes.

One question for all those wanting him gone for £12M. How much would Celtic sell a 22 yr old Colombian international that finished the season with over 30 goals? I’m sure it wouldn’t be for any less that £25M!

I’m not saying that’s his value but it will be extremely difficult to find a 30 goal striker for less than £10M.

For those that think Defoe will play 55 games this season you need to wisen up!

And for those quoting Roofe. He maybe a good player, but a goal scorer he ain’t. Averages 1 in 4 in a very average league.



12 Jul 2019 08:53:30
morelos is a red card waiting to happen. cash in and reinvest and if you think the english championship is an average league you're deluded.



12 Jul 2019 09:26:39
One in four in a very AVERAGE league. Behave yourself!



12 Jul 2019 09:32:41
I'd be over the moon if we get anything over 12mil for morelos this summer. We are a better team with defoe up top and if the cash for morelos gets us kent then that would just be the ticket.



12 Jul 2019 10:52:08
Zikos so many holes in your comment mate

saying hard to find a 30 goal striker for less than 10m when we payed 1m for our 30 goal striker. Aberdeen lad cosgrove got 20+ and they got him for a tenner . your talking nonesense

calling championship average is a punt. on grand scheme of things comapared to top leagues then yes but compared to SPL its streets ahead. Roofe will score goals galore for us if we were to sign him.



12 Jul 2019 11:46:19
Zikos totally agree with u.



12 Jul 2019 12:43:27
@jbf500 - You've a brass neck comparing that Cosgrove diddy with Morelos!
Half of Cosgroves goals came from penalties!
If Morelos took and scored ours he would have been on 45+ for the season!



12 Jul 2019 13:33:53
The championship is bang average. The evidence is there for everyone to see. Just look at all the players that can’t cut it in the SPFL and go down there and are superstars. Too many to name!

I agree you can find a gem now and again that can bang in the goals, but not a proven one. That’s my point.

Yes Aberdeen picked up Cosgrove for a snippet, but now he is proven, I doubt we could buy him for less than £9M.

In regards to Roofe, were is the evidence he would bang in the goals here? Garner has a better scoring record!

As I said, shortsighted!



12 Jul 2019 16:29:56
Seriously think the Scandinavian leagues are a decent market for us to operate in . Not too expensive and a lit of young talent. Their not going to fear the winter either lol.
