Need some help my 6 year old daughter wants the orange strip from santa does anyone know where I could get one I've tried online at mega store but nothing. cheers.
12 Nov 2018 22:09:31
Just have to play it by ear mate, I don't think anyone knows what's happening with kit sales👍.
12 Nov 2018 22:53:22
Try ourvipsfootballshirts.co.uk they may have them.
I’ve used them 6 or 7 times for my kids strips and the quality is good.

Pre-order on the gers store online realised 16th November.
13 Nov 2018 17:32:00
I've just been I to both JD sports stores in Belfast City Centre and they got more stock in this morning albeit a very small amount looked like 20 or so tops in each store in various sizes unless there was more and they've just sold quickly but when I asked one of the staff when did they get more stock of the rangers home top in the staff member wasn't even aware the new stock was out on the rails as they said they were sorry but it all sold out last month and they were expecting another delivery of Gers gear in on the 15th.
14 Nov 2018 19:56:43
Thanks guys ordered it online from store will be here in 2-3 days mighty relieved was stressing out didn't want to let her down.

How funny was it watching Michael Stewart on the verge of tears on national television yesterday the hatred he has for the worlds most successful football club is quite astonishing to say the least😂😂 If Rangers win 55 this season it will comedy gold watching the utter meltdown from him fatson and Cris mutton please make this happen Rangers🙏😂.
12 Nov 2018 17:37:20
Michael stewart is an absolute poltis of a man! Couldn't make it at the famous glasgow rangers and now he trys to take it out on us! An Absolute apology of a football analyst!
12 Nov 2018 18:28:43
Average football player and average pundit. Rangers pumping Motherwell absolutely destroyed him yesterday coops 😂.
12 Nov 2018 18:31:05
Should we have a poll on M. Stewart?
{Ed033's Note - There is a M. Stewart poll
12 Nov 2018 18:36:29
The same Michael Stewart who said it was a stone wall penalty when the same happened to Russell Martin last season at Ross County - embarrassing.
12 Nov 2018 18:43:53
I met Michael up in Fife with his wife and new baby a few years ago and he and I had a chat as they asked to sit at our table in the beer garden
To be fair he said some positive stuff about Rangers.
I think he is just trying to make a name for himself on the BBC I do agree he appears very anti Rangers
Perhaps he sould take a job in management and see
How he gets on.
It’s very easy to criticise when you not involved.
12 Nov 2018 18:58:24
Be careful lads I got 2 disagrees on my post which ultimately means Bhampot and rayman are hovering about😂.
12 Nov 2018 22:27:21
Stewart fanes being an MSP does he not?
Can hit us from Holyrood as well as BBC.
12 Nov 2018 22:43:11
The media in general are very anti-Rangers in Scotland. An example was when we lost to Livi, they ran with Gerrard under pressure etc. Yesterday when Celtic drew with Livi it was the pitches fault!
Even Proven who is normally quite diplomatic is starting to crack at the thought of Rangers under Gerrard being competitive again by suggesting he should leave before his reputation is damaged! And there I thought he was up here to build it?
As for Mutton and Fatson well they are already imploding inside.
It will make #55 all the sweeter.
13 Nov 2018 06:27:54
You're bang on the money Union Jack!
Some ex celtic media pundits are kacking themselves, with the thought that our manager steven gerrard,
gets his rebuild done quickly enough, to stop their beloved celtic getting 10 IAR. My own thoughts are gerrard has a more than decent chance of stopping their run! Although the rangers board, quite rightly, don't blab about what investment we have, there's most definitely investment coming into rangers and gerrard will be backed!
Davie provan's comments in his sunday scottish sun there, just proves they're most definitely sitting up and taking notice, of what gerrard has just started building at rangers. UJ, you're spot on, steven gerrard is up here to build up his reputation as a manager and not about to quit, because of the task of being the glasgow rangers manager! He truly believes and so he should, that he has a good chance of stopping them getting their holy grail, of 10 IAR. that's what's sticking in their throats and they know it! So Mr. Provan, stevie G is an iconic figure and winner and won't even think about quitting regarding his reputation! Look on the other side, he trusts himself wholeheartedly to get it right at rangers and if he does his reputation will be through the roof!
So its a glass half full for me provan, not like you, who are glass half empty, where rangers are concerned! Hope on, its not going to happen, where you say gerrard should quit or not!
13 Nov 2018 07:24:06
Well said Supercoop and the others. The media bias against Rangers in Scotland is an outrage. Even Steven Thompson, an ex-Rangers player, can't bring himself to praise Rangers. Maybe we shouldn't bother but it just made my blood boil when listening to that crap on Sportscene on Sunday! I wonder what they'll say if we go top of the league in a couple of weeks? Onwards and upwards to #55.
13 Nov 2018 09:31:50
These guys are paid to be controversial, if they are dull they won’t have a job.
Plenty of fans on here who are more critical of us that Michael Stewart but they are allowed an opinion but he is not?
Get real girls, who cares what the pundits and press say, we can do our talking on the pitch.
12 Nov 2018 14:47:06
Regarding a creative midfielder i.e . Stephen Davis or like, plus a tough mouthy guy like Souness . Only an opinion, I’m sure there will be other ideas, maybe better. But I keep forgetting that we have Jack who most people rate and a free one, real bargain?
12 Nov 2018 19:04:49
We need a Terry Hurlock.
13 Nov 2018 08:55:34
Ejaria is supposed to be that creative mid. Think he holds the ball too long though. Pena has a player in him. he just needs to rid himself of the demons.
We need to replace sadiq. I'd rather have dodoo or hardie there over him.
12 Nov 2018 13:32:16
Ed poll please, is michael stewart a moronic nobody? Ye or nae👍.
Even better ed, the poll should be, does michael stewart's opinion matter? Answers, yes, no or who is michael stewart?
{Ed033's Note - Surely you mean 'personic'?
Michael Stewart Poll
12 Nov 2018 15:39:18
Well plaid Coldo, the thing is, I can understand anyone of a Celtic persuasion getting tore into us at any given opportunity but to see sad misfits like him actually manufacture reality in his own mind because he hates us that much is really astounding.
12 Nov 2018 15:48:01
I think I'll stick with moronic ed 😂👍, the Motherwell player only done the star jump and that moron says it wasn't a pen. 👍.
12 Nov 2018 14:16:10
What do we need in january? I think a creative midfielder is a must. I think solanke will also come on loan. Steven davis and solanke perhaps? I would be happy with that👍.
12 Nov 2018 18:15:47
Maybe bring in Lewis MacLeod as well as Davis. Similar type of player, 10 years younger. MacLeod would do well to learn from Davis. Solanke would be a good addition for the season, replacing Sadiq who should be out the door.
12 Nov 2018 17:52:45
Sell taverner and buy a right back that can defend.
12 Nov 2018 18:17:56
The number 10 is an absolute must, it will transform the team. The wide men, the striker the deeper midfielders will all benefit from a top player in this role. I had hoped Dorrans could do it, think he could be a good back up if he can get fit but that is the player we need, another striker would be fantastic also but with Morelos/ Lafferty/ youths I’d rather go for a no.10 with whatever cash we have.
12 Nov 2018 20:31:28
Sweep, time to change your tune on Tav.
You are entitled to an opinion but most fans don’t want to hear it because we believe 100% that our manager has forgotten more about football than you will ever know.
Gerard made Tav our Captain - end of strory so either support the team or take your thoughts to the Celtic pages.
12 Nov 2018 21:00:38
DK 18 because sweep does not laud Tav the way some do, u tell him to go to Celtic pages. Very very poor, we are all allowed to have an opinion, if a supporter does not rate a player that's his right.
Count the goals and points and cup he has cost us.
12 Nov 2018 22:50:28
Jboy, are you are missing or ignoring my point.
Do you believe that SG knows what he is doing and has a better understanding of Tav’s strengths and weaknesses as well as his game plan or do you think he should give Sweep a call?
13 Nov 2018 00:11:03
Aye jboy, let's count the goals and assists he's scored and created for us also.
It doesn't seem to matter to some how well Tav plays, they've decided he's the scapegoat.
I always appreciate a gers player who doesn't shy away when the going is tough. Whilst he is a better offensive than defensive player, his defensive qualities have definitely improved.
In recent games, defensive weakness is down the left side between Flanagan katic/ Worrall.
13 Nov 2018 06:34:28
ANOTHER goal and ANOTHER two assists.
Yes - Tav must go.
13 Nov 2018 15:55:07
Listen guys watched us for 55 years we r all entitled to our opinion.
13 Nov 2018 16:01:10
Mols 73 as I've said before he is not a scapegoat. When we lost 50 league goals last year he was involved in 30 off them.
Guys like Jardine, ricksen, porrini and Reyna could defend as well as attack and provide assists
All I want is better players so we can me stop ten.
12 Nov 2018 10:49:37
Just reading that Stevie G. was worried about big Goldson, it is chest pains not a virus but pains around the chest, one good thing is that it’s not the same problem as he had at Brighton, he played with the pain in Russia 🇷🇺 . Hope the big guy is ok, Stevie G. said he should be alright for Livingston.
12 Nov 2018 10:58:45
Going on what was said before the match I don't think goldson was ever going to play. He pretty much said he was going to rest him as he has played nearly every game so far and it was starting to affect his performance due to the fatigue.
12 Nov 2018 17:53:27
Gerrard slaughtered the guy after the Moscow game.
12 Nov 2018 09:53:23
Great win yesterday regardless of how many players Motherwell had on the pitch. The penalty award was correct. McHugh's arms were both up in the air therefore making it likely that they would make contact with the ball being struck towards goal. I like the look of Grezda and Arfield was class. We have Livingston, Hearts and Aberdeen in our next three league games and if we win the first two of these we will be top of the league on our own (the unwashed play the sheep on 2nd Dec in the league cup) . If that happens, let's see if we can keep our noses in front until we play them at Ibrox at Christmas.
12 Nov 2018 16:36:52
We can always be optimistic Doiger, We are due a wee run.
12 Nov 2018 09:23:56
Just want to thank all those posters who answered my question on McCauley, all honest opinions, some cagey. ( as I would expect) but all had a good word, I myself believe that the guy will be a good short term acquisition, come on if the regular centre half’s are injured, but one never knows, one thing though, he’ll play his heart out because he was a Rangers supporter Like Davis in his mummy’s womb.
13 Nov 2018 09:32:58
McAuley looked very very promising when he came on.
12 Nov 2018 08:43:12
Looking at the TV pictures I don’t think the Motherwell lad deserved a sending off
It very much looked like ball to hand
But but but how often have Rangers been on the wrong end of horrendous refereeing decisions and all and sundry have said get on with it.
You would have to question the overall standards as they are very poor.
12 Nov 2018 10:54:26
If you stand with both hands in the air at a corner and the ball hits one of them, that is ball to hand as well but it going to be 100% a pen.
The pen we got was because he had hands in an unatural position and prevented a shot being on target.
12 Nov 2018 10:55:44
He should have been sent off before that, received a yellow for persistent fouls then straight after the yellow brought down Morelos that should have been 2nd. Sending off was justified.
12 Nov 2018 11:03:40
He fouled then handballed within minutes of being carded the first time. No one to blame but himself. How much of a tw*t is Michael Stewart btw, saying it was never a penalty, he made himself as big as possible and his hands were as high in the air as they could be.
12 Nov 2018 12:16:56
He dived like a goalie, no idea how daftit's like Stewart think it's not a penalty.
12 Nov 2018 13:21:02
Definate pen, no doubt about it. Should have walked before that, two fouls in a minute after being booked. 👍.
12 Nov 2018 13:33:02
I agree it was ball to hand but he deliberately raised his hands to make himself bigger and that makes it a foul.
As for Michael Stewart, he's an absolute roaster who is just out to make a name for himself like Sutton did by being controversial.
12 Nov 2018 14:55:33
If you throw yourself into a block like that with your arms up you run the risk of giving away a penalty and getting booked. 50/50 depending on how the ref interprets the incident.
We seen some strange decisions at the WC and they had the benefit of VAR.
13 Nov 2018 00:22:08
Dermatitis Gallagher on refund watch on sky this morning said definately penalty even the Motherwell manager said no issues with penalty or 2nd yellow. Just raging about first yellow. Pretty sure it was for persistent fouling tho snd not just that one foul.
13 Nov 2018 09:33:22
Pen or not we would have humped them rotten.
12 Nov 2018 07:29:12
{Ed's Note - Ed001 has posted a new article entitled, Review Of The Day 12th November 2018
12 Nov 2018 09:43:45
I really like Morelos but very disappointed to see him clapping Thomson at sending off, another day he would have been booked.
12 Nov 2018 12:18:40
Agreed jboy I hate seeing that. Did u see gaurdiola making a beeline for sterling raging about him showboating in the last min? Brillisnt to see that for a mansger.
12 Nov 2018 12:32:02
Spot on guys, we need to show a bit of class. Leave that stuff to the other lot. Suits them down to the ground.
12 Nov 2018 13:01:20
Thought so too but did you see how quick his team mates were to remove him from the situation. Happened a couple of times, jack etc just pulling him away from these situations.
12 Nov 2018 00:56:03
Well done rangers today that was a great team performance! Only fault I could pick was Katic got taxi'd for Motherwell's goal, even though I rate him! Every goal Rangers scored today was a well worked goal from the whole team more or less! I thought Middleton played well and it was great to see an inch perfect pass from Grezda to Middleton and Middleton didn't even need to look where he was putting it, that's the co-ordination you want to see from your wingers! 👌🏻.
12 Nov 2018 08:49:38
Obviously a couple of jungle jims trolling around the site. Very quiet this morning. Bham was on trying to put a positive spin on their result but you could tell he was hurting. Look at the points we've dropped almost with the last kick in games and we are only 2 behind with a better goal difference. And we are a new team with a new manager. Very good yesterday, especially after a tough European tie.
12 Nov 2018 00:34:40
Please tell me i'm not the only bear who notices how emotionless Ejaria is every game 😂 he's destined to be a top player though if he keeps putting in performances like that!
12 Nov 2018 12:34:10
Apparently he is just a big quiet laddie who never seems to get fazed by anything. He is going to be some player.
12 Nov 2018 00:10:17
On reflection today's joyous moment has me thinking early Christmas for one reason. Pre SG we would have met Well home/ away with certain amount of trepidation. Today shows SG has the team playing as a unit which is wonderful to see.
