If we do bring in Abella then I think we should sell Tav. Abella looks like an attacking Wing Back in same mould as Tav except better! But what's the ppint in having 2 attacking full backs? I know we want 2 quality players challenging for positions but Hodson offers a change if needed and i'm still aware of our finances and Tav is a million quid sitting there. It has gone quiet regarding Abella so maybe our back line is set. Just a Winger and for our new DOF to inform us of any youngsters Man City were looking at and for us to build a group of players for the Colt Team.



15 Jun 2017 00:35:02
Agree with most of your points.

Tav Β£1m but? After the season he's had, we'd be lucky to get rid of him.

RB is predominently a defensive position. He cannot defend and his positioning is embarassing.

Get tav punted. Lost count to how many times he was at fault for us conceeding



15 Jun 2017 01:49:33
Thing is more teams now want their full backs to bomb up the wings which I do like to see but you must have not only good CH's but players on the pitch that will be able to cover that area if tge full back is caught in opposition half! Yeah the player must track back but if he's been told to attack down the wings in support of the midfireld then the team must be wel drilled.
Tav IS a 1m player and a team in English Championship should take him.



15 Jun 2017 05:34:50
Tav proberly had more assists than any other player this season



15 Jun 2017 10:52:45
You end find teams that have attacking full backs start with 3 recognised centre halfs.

A reckon it would work with the 2 portuguese lads an jack dropping in behind to cover and allow the full backs to push against weaker teams. Ad want an extra defensive player against the more dangerous opposition though.

If the rumours are true about porto's Layun. ad bite your hand off for him and use tav as a utility man. Just IMO but



15 Jun 2017 11:20:36
The Club have already said there is no truth in the Abella link



15 Jun 2017 11:32:09
Believe it or not, Kenny Miller had the most assists last season at 7, along with being top goalscorer at 11.

Assists last season:
Miller 7
Wallace 5
Tav 5
waggy 4
Mckay 3



14 Jun 2017 22:27:26
Forgive me if I'm wrong here, but didn't PC say in an interview how he wanted to follow FC Porto and Benfica in how they handle transfers in that they stipulate that all dealings are to remain confidential until the player has signed and that they walk away if the agents mention anything to the press. Every player we have signed so far and every player we are currently going after the press knew about them weeks and sometimes months ago, what's happened to keeping a lid on things?



14 Jun 2017 20:59:28
I thought we would have had an official announcement on Morelos by now. Is he training with us while the permits go through?



14 Jun 2017 22:37:00
He has signed up already was just reading about it now just waiting on confirmation, but I'm only going on what I have read



15 Jun 2017 04:52:54
He can't work until he is allowed into the country for work purposes



14 Jun 2017 20:51:09
How many more signings do u think we need? And do u think we could win the league this season? I'm feeling optimistic about this season lads πŸ‘πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§



14 Jun 2017 20:57:45
A few more needed but not this season players need time to settle into scottish football next season



14 Jun 2017 21:07:35
If all goes to plan including Pena, Herrera, Morelos and Dorrans I would just say a more defensively sound right back would be brilliant. I try not to get my hopes up too much since we are rebuilding but if the team clicks and gets off to a fast start then I don't see why we can't challenge.



14 Jun 2017 21:18:14
With Pena, Dorrans, Morelos, Herrera and Walker all wanted, I'd think our signings will be done until august. Focus should be trimming the squad. With Mark Allen supposedly coming in as DoF he will probably put forward a few targets. I would never rule us out for winning the league but its a huge task.



14 Jun 2017 21:21:31
I think he will bring in a dozen at least, hopefully he can get Dorrans deal over the line! I personally wouldn't spend 1 million on Walker because I hate the thought being held to ransom by a spl club and I personally don't think he's worth it! Get Barry McKay sold and use the money to get Weiss. I also think Pedro will bring in at least one fullback and also hopefully another Marquee signing and that will be business over. πŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‡¬πŸ‡§



14 Jun 2017 21:25:14
Don't know how many more signings we will have but certainly excited about the ones we have.
And as for winning the league. Why not. Let's go for it. And if it is to be second place then at least it should be after a bloody hard fight.



14 Jun 2017 22:04:31
Bring in Abella and sell Tav after that then we should concentrate on bringing in a quality Winger. Not saying Weiss although would like to see it happen but someone of that caibre at least.
I do think Pedro will bring in one more signing at 2-3m plus. that's why I think that bringing in Walker wouldn't really enhance the squad.



14 Jun 2017 22:53:05
Wiess and abella and we will be sorted



14 Jun 2017 23:35:22
What I would do regarding Walker is tell him to sit tight, F#@K the jambos. The lad is still young and he's not a priority signing! It'll teach them to hold us to ransom. Come Jan they'll accept 250k!
Thoughts Bears surely this is the way to go.



15 Jun 2017 04:54:52
After last year I don't think there should be any talk of winning the league. let's just see how the team gels and how our new players get on first :-)



15 Jun 2017 11:28:10
We need a great right back.



14 Jun 2017 17:47:40
anyone got any news on the Colombian boy morelos. and any truth to us meant to be bringing in a top player that will boost sales on merchandise and shirt sales? .

don't know where it's came from but a few people I've heard saying this now.

anyone know anything.



14 Jun 2017 18:16:45
I've heard Pedro is trying to finalise permanent deals for:

Carlos Pena
Eduardo Herera
Alfredo Morelos
Graham Dorrans
Jamie Walker

Once these have been finalised (touch wood), we are looking to seal a loanee from Chelsea as part of the Billy Gilmour agreement and/ or a loan deal for 1 of Man Utd's top talents.

Tbf I hope 1 of these address the RB position. can imagine Tav being the scapegoat again next season if we don't clinch all 3 points in certain matches.



14 Jun 2017 18:20:58
Are you sure you haven't just looked at your Fifa objectives and confused them with real life mate?



14 Jun 2017 18:38:18
nah rafbob. a few guys I was talking too saying a loan deal might be a player from either spain or Italy. but again don't know where it's came from.



14 Jun 2017 18:53:01
Very doubt we will get someone from Chelsea on loan as gilmour signed for there youth system two totally different apartments



14 Jun 2017 19:27:28
Appreciate that brian. If a remember correctly though, there were a number of clubs in for Billy.

Surely as we gave Chelsea '1st dibs' we can anticipate a favour in return nah?



14 Jun 2017 19:56:36
Did we give Chelsea 1st dibs?

As far as I'm aware they r the only club that we accepted an offer from for the young lad.



14 Jun 2017 20:03:54
How did we give Chelsea first dibs?



14 Jun 2017 20:16:28
I sure tha we would have arranged some sort of arrangement with Chelsea regarding a loan of one of their up and coming players.



14 Jun 2017 20:22:40
Gilmour got two different apartments?



14 Jun 2017 22:57:48
youth system and senior team totally different obv that's what i meant to say



15 Jun 2017 00:44:26
True mate. still but, the potential the young boy has is clearly enough for them to offload 1 of their older, surplus to requirements player



15 Jun 2017 11:26:21
Gilmour could have signed for anyone he wanted and did it was his first professional contract all you were due was compensation for training him, it was NOT a transfer .



14 Jun 2017 13:32:31
Anyone else concerned as too how quiet it's went in regards to Pena and Herrera's work permits and visa's.



14 Jun 2017 15:22:52
No as its all been granted etc so what's to worry about



14 Jun 2017 16:06:44
Kri55 it depends on what media you read, some say work permits have been issued, others say it will be this week the decision is made.



14 Jun 2017 18:34:03
If permits are granted why aren't they in Glasgow too sign there deals and start training with there team mates Kri55?



14 Jun 2017 19:15:03
Good point frustratedbear good point.



14 Jun 2017 19:41:16
work permit allows to apply for visa, can't come without visa



14 Jun 2017 22:43:49
Because life still happens and they need visas as stated above. Why the rush? Its all been agreed signed etc so relax they will probably be paraded along with the columbian lad.



14 Jun 2017 13:26:16
Would like to see Craig bryson at rangers tenacious wee player.



14 Jun 2017 13:58:43
We would more than likely end up with Jamie Bryson!



14 Jun 2017 16:24:00
The total lack of ambition some fans have in terms of signing players is alarming.



14 Jun 2017 19:36:32
Personally I wouldn't go for Walker



14 Jun 2017 12:53:52
Forrester confirming on his twitter feed that "Rumours and reports that I have been suspended are totally false and inaccurate. "

wonder why the MSM keeping making up these stories. Is it to get the fans to turn on our players? I saw a couple of tweets to forrester following the rumour he was suspended and I was unimpressed by some of the accusations people put to him. lesson should be learned to wait till things are confirmed before questioning players. let's not forget that for as long as they remain rangers players, they are part of our family and should be treated with respect irrespective of their footballing ability.



15 Jun 2017 11:12:23
i am one of the only fans of this boy left in the rangers support.
i have always said he has the quality to make it to the big time i honestly believe that his twinkle toes and eagerness to win the ball back is brilliant he lacks in the shooting department but that could change in a season.

if he does have a bad attitude and is always late for training then yes get rid of him but honestly i'd like to see in featured in our first team as a no.10 or out on the right. scoff all u guys want but he has great feet great first touch and when he does pass he has great vision



14 Jun 2017 13:22:13
How long does it usually take to obtain a visa/ work permit? I thought pena and herrera would be here by now, its starting to get me worried please hurry up and arrive



14 Jun 2017 13:29:20
Got feeling pena is going to be dynamite



14 Jun 2017 13:55:58
Think for a normal person applying for a visa to come live in UK it can take up to 12 weeks but i would imagine a footballer it would prob be slightly less i reckon they will be announced before mondays europa deadline



14 Jun 2017 19:17:07
What and blow up his so called contract way us rfcbear



15 Jun 2017 11:14:02
work permits granted for pena and herrera just need to get the wee merelos over the line on that one and we will have threee added to our large squad.



14 Jun 2017 06:15:11
So Apparently the dorrans deal has been rejected again! It does my tits in this going in low. The other targets had a valuation which we met no questions asked, secured the player move on to the next. Dorrans for me could be the most significant signing this summer yet we are fannying about over a few hundred grand! Boils my piss.



14 Jun 2017 07:24:18
Best way to do business with an English club, (as long as it works) if we went in higher they would ask for more still and we could end up paying a few hundred thousand more than he's worth.

A few hundred thousand could be s player like Dorrans wages for the season.



14 Jun 2017 09:24:23
I agree rafbob that it's a business at the end of the day and we need to negotiate as much as we can



14 Jun 2017 10:00:35
Player has already said he wants the move, would be mad to not start low and work up although hope he's in for euro deadline



14 Jun 2017 10:56:35
I have to agree with magoo here, Dorrans is already a bargain, just find some compromise with Norwich get this one done βœ….

I have seen players valued at 2 or 3 times that, that are not as good as Dorrans.

And I also think why we're the more risky Latino players done without any fuss over the price. Dorrans is a bargain.

Also I think we're going to need a Dorrans type to make the chemistry of this new squad seem right. Otherwise I wouldn't know what to expect. With Dorrans there it gives us the balance that is going to be needed with all these foreign imports.

I completely understand the opinion that we can't go back the way and pay over the odds for players. I would hate that. But in this case if we pay between 1.2 million and 1.5 million, that for me falls into the category of a absolute steal.

When I heard the amount we bid last night for him - I knew it was going to refused, and was quite dissatisfied.
For me Norwich have every right to demand more!

Rangers must know what Norwich would settle for, so I say pay up! And I thought he was meant to be one of Peds top targets?

As much as this window has been good, if lost out on Dorrans it would leave a nasty taste in my mouth.



15 Jun 2017 11:20:30
Fans that are still even now questioning the boards methods and the money they are putting into players are a joke

What do you want them to to just say to Norwich "We still have Β£2/ 3million left in the kitty can we give you a blank cheque just fill in the details and the amount yourselves as we desperately want this player Dorrans, we are really desperate and will pay over the top just ask anyone what we paid for a lump of wood Garner"

The board have got some highly rated players at very good prices they clearly know what they are doing as does our manager.



14 Jun 2017 02:45:24
New song for next season.

John lennon is glad he's dead that he won't face the challenge of songwriters like you



14 Jun 2017 09:44:15
Don't bother!



14 Jun 2017 10:48:33
What about

'Everywhere you go always take Herrera with you,

Everywhere you go, always take ''Herrera''

If he's banging them in hopefully πŸ˜‚



14 Jun 2017 13:26:01
πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ as much as i'd love a new song i don't see that taking off

Rank rotten songs boys lol🀣🀣



13 Jun 2017 20:18:28
Looking on the rangers page and viewing the gallery does anyone know the lad wearing No 59. Probably know him just don't recognise him.



14 Jun 2017 01:16:56
no sure mate there's no initials on his gear and a don't recognise him either



14 Jun 2017 06:23:02
Myles beerman, he got his head shaved for the Malta game
