ok so I may be wrong about barton but every team needs a roy kean type of player . just my take ok. scot brown perfect example . also we need a big tall goalie who orchestrates his 6 yard box and doesn't catch flies. bell would be my back up as he's a flycatcher as we saw against well.just sayin

He is also a thug take a look on YouTube to see what he did to the young kid outside McDonald's , ed did ed7 not say you knew his family or stayed near them , if so could you shine some light on the type of guy were dealing with here .

{Ed001's Note - he is a horrible little rat, stubbed out a cigar in the face of a youth team lad while at City, stamped on the head of a player lying on the ground, and that is just the stuff that became public. He is just like his brother. Look him up.}
19 Jun 2015 21:54:58
That should have been a jail sentence,the cigar incident.
Nasty,horrible thing to do.As you say ed,that's only one of the incidents known to the public.An animal the boy.

DH88 I thought we had got passed the Gers are bigots thing- on the park? With big Lorenzo, Porinni, Negri, wee Neil McCann, Gattuso wee Mo etc etc there will have been times when Rangers have fielded more Catholics than your team which could only be an issue in this Moronic little country.
Bigots a plenty left in the stands in both grounds but not on the park and in the boardrooms thankfully - at least I hope not.

20 Jun 2015 07:32:41
DH88 What's you're point fella, so what if he is a Tim, you're more than welcome to proclaim him one of your own a nasty egotistical bully better known for his off field rather than on field actions, personally wouldn't want him anywhere near our club. By the way do you know who our first signing is likely to be and who he represented (ROI) don't think the lad is from the Shankill Rd, it would appear we're over it maybe time to move on yourself fella.

I think Barton ' s a better player than he gets credit for but as has been said, the guy is a moron and we should not be looking at the likes if him. His wage demands would scupper it any way, thankfully

Not many of my fellow bluenoses seem to be going for Vuckic, but he would be a priority signing for me. Him along with Allan, McLeod, Wilson and May would give us the basis of a right good team.

I'm not entirely sure it would be a good move for him career-wise though.

Vuckic isn't a good player at all. Couldn't even stand out in the Scottish Championship.
Agree2
Disagree10
19 Jun 2015 19:03:17
For me he was a standout,he had to do far to much on his own,surrounded by clowns,I would love to see him back playing in a team that was there to support him rather than hide behind him,get him signed and he'll flourish under MW.
Agree7
Disagree0
19 Jun 2015 22:15:22
Vuckic certainly impressed in a number of games but if money is tight which it will be and we are watching the pounds shillings and pence I would prefer Scott Allan- if do-able.
I like wee Murdoch but remember Allan engaging the afterburners and leaving young Murdoch in his wake. Looks to have a bit of character about him as well- managing to ignore the louts at corners at Ibrox who failed the club yet again .
Agree0
Disagree0
20 Jun 2015 00:44:16
Vuckic is a good player for me, but very predictable, picks up the ball and immediately looks to cut in on his left, we need a player that is quicker sharper, and doesn't drift in and out of the game still wouldn't be overly disappointed if we signed him but don't think it'll happen due to his ambitions to play for his country!
Agree0
Disagree1
20 Jun 2015 20:54:58
Vuckic for me was VG player, but defenders knew to turn him on his weaker foot. I'd def like to see him in the team, but can't see Ashley playing ball unless he's part of the deal with the 5m loan repayment. and renegotiation of the retail deal.
Agree0
Disagree0
20 Jun 2015 22:05:52
Exactly right smrfc. Stop him getting on to his left foot and he's gubbed. A decent player but too predictable and he's also not the quickest.

I think the english championship and division 1 are good leagues to sign players from as they are hard leagues to play in there nearly playing Saturday and tuesday all season tough leagues! Ed would you say division 1 in england is on a par with Scottish premier league?
Believable6
Unbelievable4
{Ed001's Note - it certainly is in terms of average wages, which would suggest it should be. Hard to compare but you would expect most League 1 teams to be competitive in the SPFL, even though they would have little to no chance of winning it.}
19 Jun 2015 20:33:01
Vuckic was posted missing in the two games against Well - the second worst team in the premier league! Good vision and good feet but absolutely no pace.
Could do worse than sign Kallum Higginbotham on a free from Partick?

19 Jun 2015 22:51:15

19 Jun 2015 14:16:08
As much as I'd love to see Nikica Jelavic back in a Rangers jersey. It's not going to happen. He's already said he doesn't want to play in the English Championship. So fat chance of him coming here. Also, he took a 30% wage cut due to relegation and his wages are still sitting as high as £30,000-a-week.
Agree3
Disagree0
19 Jun 2015 17:46:34
Good for him what has that got to do with our team signings as surely you are not insane enough to think we are signing £3m players in the Championship? That will be close to our whole budget
Agree2
Disagree1
19 Jun 2015 17:48:28
Yeah saw that, way out our price range though. I loved the big guy a few years ago, but his form has been sporadic. I think he would be too much of a Gamble, We can bring in 3-5 decent players for that money. Wages would also be a major stumbling block.
Agree1
Disagree0
19 Jun 2015 17:49:13
P.S I would rather take Dame-N-Doye who Hull are also letting go if the price was right. But that's a pipe dream as he is being linked with Newcastle and West Ham.
Good goals ratio prior to Hull
Copenhagen played 104 scored 59 times
Lokomotiv Moscow played 71 scored 27

Jussi jaaskelainen has been freed by Bolton. He's a far better keeper or Ali Al-hasi released by Wigan another better choice.

Now that warburton has started his search for players do use think he will use the 4 2 3 1 formation he used at brentford? If so what who would u pick out of players bn linked with us and what formation. Ad go for
Bell
mcgregor wilson kiernan wallace
Murdoch law
dallas allan templeton
may
Decent line up and should stroll the championship. Would say we need a good strong rb and a playmaker aswell as a striker and left back.

Law is not good enough to play as a centre midfielderif he isn't going to play as an attacking midfielder then he shouldn't play! Centre mids need to defend and he doesn't allhe does is runaround and give the ball away!

The team I would like to see next season is mcgregor
D mcgregor Wilson kiernan
Naismith Wallace w/backs
Walker(from hearts) Allan Dallas
May rooney(from a'deen)
Not very likely but must be worth a try I wouldn't normally go back for old players but I would for the goalie

Warburton has Allan, Wilson and the boy Kiernan all underway and will be signed I am impressed but moreso by the fact they all have huge potential that if Warburton does what he has done at Brentford this should mean they become better players at the least reaching their potential
Onwards and upwards I love the fact that every day now there are positive stories about Rangers back page again as opposed to 3 years of front page debacles.
