The early signs of pedros reign are not good but he must be given to get rid of as many of warburtons duds as possible and bring in his own players. He needs to get his signings spot on and they need to hit the ground running otherwise he may not see the end of nex season. Almost every warburton signing has been a spectacular failure. I hope and pray pc gets his signings right and is given the backing he needs but its looking like le guen all over again

17 May 2017 23:41:45
And who will buy these duds? Got to get rid of them before we can buy anyone

18 May 2017 00:04:42
PC certainly a "record break"

1) Celtic win first SC semi final against us in over 90 years!

2) Aberdeen's first win at Ibrox in 26 years!

Sorry but would Murty not have done better?

PC not providing fans with any confidence even allowing for his inherited "best squad in Scotland"?

Board shouldn't hide just yet .?

Ranger

Cant argue with any of your post the manager has been poor since taking over. The team have no shape, no desire and no direction under him and have actually went backwards under him. He also seems to be fond of stupid comments and needlessly tries to antagonise opposition managers. He is out his depth

17 May 2017 23:13:49
Will probably get a lot of stick on here but i have to say it. tonight i was ashamed. our "fans" throwing drinks amongst other things at the aberdeen fan who was being dragged away! Disgraceful, if you were one of those fans then i must say you have let the club and your other fans down.

18 May 2017 08:59:47
Kyle, the downside of have a huge support is that the idiot minority stand out much more than a smaller support.

The reality is that as with some on here, they are not real supporters.

They attach themselves to the club and protest their loyalty by acting like thugs, attacking players and opposition fans.

Despite the financial implications, Ibrox would be better off without the morons

17 May 2017 22:17:09
sad, but no matter how much of a warchest he gets i can't really see him getting past Xmas, He doesn't inspire but he talks a lot, that worries me, its like a smokescreen to cover his shortcomings.

17 May 2017 22:08:48
How did dodoo play tonight? Let me guess needs yet more time? He will be top class but needs more time 😂.

17 May 2017 22:35:51
He's crap full stop

18 May 2017 08:07:15
He can finish when he gets a chance, but can't dribble, pass, header, tackle lol

17 May 2017 21:48:30
On the display tonight we have 3 good young ones, Wilson, Beerman, and Baejonas. I know Beerman was run ragged by Richards but he showed tonight that that is in the past.

17 May 2017 20:00:44
Anyone else with absolutely no confidence in the new manager?

17 May 2017 20:08:51
Right now I have absolutely no confidence in King and Co and have question marks against the manager but that will all change dramatically if I see six or seven quality new players at Rangers in June rather than the absolute dross acquired for peanuts by Warburton!

Pedro needs quality players to get us back to our rightful position, he cannot be expected to win the league if all he is able to sign is players like Halliday and Kiernan!

17 May 2017 20:29:29
pedro needs get the right players in the door as for king ect in my opinion they have tain us as far as they can as they do not have the finance to take us further forward
Only players capable of improving our team right now in scottish football other than celtic players are cummings rooney jack mclean lindsay patterson but instead we are looking at average players from motherwell hamilton its not good enough and we will get no where with players from those teams

17 May 2017 20:30:52
Boring boring boring!

What's the point guys of constantly repeating your negative comments?

Pedro has effectively added some go faster stripes to the mini metro he inherited a couple of months ago. yet you all expect it to be transformed into a BMW

He had only 2 targets for this season

1. Ensure European qualification
2. Assess to squad and decide who stays, who goes and who he'd like to bring in

The appropriate time for you "supporters (Ha) " to take a worthwhile view and bore the rest of us is Christmas. By then we should have added some quality, got up to speed with SPL football and bedded in team and tactics.

Of course in the meantime you could always support another team that can match your unrealistic expectations

17 May 2017 20:38:01
I will give Pedro 100% support and the same for anyone else that manages the Rangers but for me King is full of Bullshit and he would be getting the same flack as guys like Ashley etc., if he wasn't a so called Rangers man! let's see if he puts his money where his mouth is in June, otherwise Pedro is on a hiding to nothing and will just be another fall guy for our absentee Landlord!

17 May 2017 20:47:02
But TOMUSA you have said the same thing many times.

What you haven't said is how to fix it.

I have not noticed the queue of wealthy individuals offering to take over from DK. No one in their right mind is going to dump their cash into Rangers until Ashey and the other rotten shareholders are out of the picture.

Of course if they were all out, DK would have a free hand to do what he promised to do but until then he is limited.

So, more negative nonsense or do you have a viable alternative based on reality and not expectation or dreams?

17 May 2017 21:24:02
Br65 david king is the problem at rangers right now no one is comming near us cause of him he is full of rubbish and the other board members are realising this and contantly having to bail us what happens when these indvidtuals get sick of bailing us out
Garaunteed if contracts for merchandise did get ripd up ect freeing up capital king still wouldn't invest his own money.
if ashley was doing the same rite now at our club he would be getting slated on hear so what's so diffrent from king.

17 May 2017 21:29:52
Well Craig you might be right but until someone offers to buy out King and has the money to invest we'll never know.

Only thing for certain is that Dave King was the only one who put his hand in his pocket and took the fight to Ashley, Green and the Easdales in the nick of time before we became extinct

17 May 2017 21:47:12
Dave king the only one to put his hand in his pocket?

I seem to recall the 3 Bears put their money in before he did. And it has been found to be a concert party anyway.

17 May 2017 21:47:16
What is wrong is supporters calling for a quick fix. That would cost millions and millions, so it's not going to happen. It's a long term strategy that's required. Develope youth. May take 3 or 4 or 5 years. Everyone is looking about stopping Celtic. Why be worried about what Celtic do, its about what Rangers can claw back over the next 5 years. Celtic too good and will get better, either invest in youth and build something now or for ever be in the shadow of Celtic.

17 May 2017 21:52:33
Rangers have no chance of getting into the europa league proper

17 May 2017 21:59:28
what you are failing to understand is that until they vote through the resolution that entitles them to turn there loans in to shares you will not get the perceived level of investment we all would want to see. PLus we ave to live within our means and be patient, it takes longer the 18mths to sort 10 years of financial neglect. if the resolution is passed this time at the AGM where we can offer shares to any outside investor without them being offered to existing shareholders first then King will not or any other investor openly state how much they have put in or how much money is available. Ever club would then put the price up when we go calling. Give Pedro a chance and back him and the club

17 May 2017 22:06:39
Think you have forgotten that King is under obligation to offer all shareholders 20p for each share. Until that happens then no one is going to invest

17 May 2017 22:16:19
A manager who knows what players he has should play to what we have, what murty did and that's the best we have played this season, instead of playing a different way with players that can't mean records are getting broke as for pc tactics can anyone tell me what they are TOTAL SHAMBLES

17 May 2017 22:18:58
@geo33 - what do you expect the manager to do with the Tom Kite at his disposal that we have slated all season?
Can I ask you how long you will give the next manager if you already want rid of Pedro.
Too many on here have unrealistic expectations that can only be achieved by major investment which isn't forthcoming. There is no quick fix on the horizon.
He's already introduced some youth players - let's see who he can punt and who he can bring in, along with a decent preseason and then judge him. Otherwise we are going to end up going round in circles.

17 May 2017 22:30:09
No doubt in my mind were going backwards under Pedro. when the Breadman left we were only one point behind aberdeen a good manager gets the best out of his players and its not happened so far

Hoping for a good performance tonight haven't got a clue who will be in midfield, can't be the same at the weekend surely

17 May 2017 11:20:58
Junior hoilett out of contract in summer, remember him at blackburn. Recently of Cardiff city, good tricky winger with a bit of pace
Would be a good addition?

17 May 2017 13:38:44
We need to sign players through the middle 1st. Spine of this seasons team was spineless so we need to build it up before we look at average wingers.

17 May 2017 14:38:52
i. e alves, ryan jack and a striker. not saying that's who it will be but the central pos are where we need to start

17 May 2017 16:54:49
We need two solid centre backs, two solid defensive / holding midfield players, a winger, or quality playmaker and we need someone to partner Gardner up front. We could also do with cover at full back.

They all need to be quality!

We keep believing it will happen but they need to be onboard before the Europa Cup or we won't be in it for long.

The only thing that is evident right now is the silence from King! No doubt he is getting his imaginary list of promises ready for NARSA!

17 May 2017 17:44:35
Why is everyone thinking Ryan jack is going to solve are midfield problem if he went to England he would be league 1 or bottom half of championship that's were all are players we have now level is at. i'm happy with signing him as he is a decent spfl midfielder but if we want to beat Celtic and go on a run in the Europe league we are going to need better than him. You would think he is some world class player the way people are going on.

17 May 2017 17:54:39
Before Armstrong went to them you would have said the same Deano.

17 May 2017 18:01:54
Aye Probably lol

17 May 2017 09:56:21
Nearly choked on my corn flakes this morning and almost pissed my self with laughter as I read that rangers legend set for 6/ 5 on coming back to the club. Then I thought who?

Kyle lafferty. when did he become a legend? More like leg-end.

18 May 2017 10:41:45
No disrespect papa but if kyle comes back will he still b a leg end scoring last min goal against celtic or winner for cup or winner put gers in europa league group stage? I think not

18 May 2017 11:23:41
sorry but these papers don't get to decide who's is a legend and who isn't that's us fans that do that and lafferty was and disgrace to the club plus he has went down hill not got better from what I've seen and don't call into the euros because he done okay but not good enough club level
