My team for 2morro would be (4-1-3-2) Alexander, Argryou, Perry, Faure, Wallace, McCulloch, McKay, MacLeod, Black, Shiels, Sandazza... Subs Gallacher, Cole, Naismith, Crawford, Kyle... Wouldnt have Cribari anywhere near tht team, and if we'd another option up front neither would Sandazza, wat use thk? LeJONwatp

Number 1,
Game won, is that not enough for you? End result is all that matters, it is only the big teams that try to play teams off the park, ie Barca, celtic- snort- and the gunners.

Our manager must have the most expensively assembled squad outside the top flight ever.certainly the highest wage bill.dont forget he had the experience of spl management lastseason.he's pitting his witts against managers who cant even get a job with a 3rd teir team for gods sake.ally ,youre in the right division,but with the wrong team.

Celtic fan in peace, I think that there maybe isn't as big a gap between allys players and the other 3rd div players. There only so many positions available in big clubs but thousands of good players. This unusual situation where the guys who didn't get a go at a big club can play in the same league as one is uncharted territory. Ok peace off now.

QOS match was hard fought. I thought the guys played hard and worked hard. I honestly think that's as good as they can do. QOS are obviously first div next season, I don't think we're first div quality.

With the players and training facility available at rangers they should be beating these teams. Maybe dropping points now and again but it's become a common theme. Time for players to show everyone there not journey men that are after a cooshie number and actually dig in and work harder.

If Rangers draw or lose 2moro Ally will have to walk as Montrose would struggle against any competent junior side.
The past week has seen us draw with Annan and get knocked out the Ramsdens Cup by QOS, our worst week of football in our history. Surely we have to do much better 2moro or Ally must have completely lost the dressing room.

Have you checked the odds on Montrose?
You can get up to 75/1 for a 1-2 score. They are not a bad side, it seems the sides coming to ibrox come out full of energy but struggle when they concede. I'm sure one will take a leaf out of qos book and hang on in. Rangers 1 Montrose 2 has a ring to it. Tenner. Forres (the can can) are a competitive tough outfit with a fanatical support. They won 6-1 at home today. I'm looking at 2 bets here, a 90 min draw and 2-2 cs @90. This situation is good for punters. Rangers are massive favourites every game but struggling. The odds are haywire. Ameliorate your pain and make a gain.

I'll get in first. Now 3-1. So bet gone.bookies got some money back. Looking forward to next week cos rangers are still struggling.

Even his patter to interviewers is all wrong.

At this moment he should be delivering positiveness and upbeat inspiring messages.
He's not inspiring at all.
No leadership.

As much as i love and will always
respect Ally for what he has done
for our glorious club i really do think
its time for him to go and the only
way that will happen is for him to be
sacked. I do think he has a future in
management but not with Rangers.
Any manager would find it hard
managing us right now, hence why
we need someone in with a bit
experience.

Celtic fans are hoping the gers fans turn against Ally at every opportunity, not because he's a bad manager (has never had a full season in charge to be fairly judged) but because he's a legend and his presence is helping to hold the club together in our time of need. I totally agree with the mischievous Celtic fans...ALLY MUST STAY! Geo the Ger

Rangers fan here, think you must be on the moon since start of the season, have you seen the results at peterhead, Berwick and Annan? Knocked put a cup at HOME to queen of the south, probably cost club 700,000 as a cup final against Patrick would've been a sellout at hampden.

I don't think it was Celtic supporters booing McCoist at the rustbucket that is Ibrox on Tues night?

Ally McCoist is a s**t awful manager whoever you support, now hes saying we need to treat each game as a cup final against part time opposition ! its his job to motivate the players not pass the buck onto them constantly, no player could look good under such a poor manager with such naive tactics, if McCoist has any dignity left he would resign, SIMPLY THE WORST

i posted a few days ago. that i was always amazed that the timmies, call the daily record, the daily rangers. as living in london and many times investing my hard earned coin, into it, i was left disapointed that u usualy get 6 pages of celtic, and one on rangers, waste of money
yesterday prime example. ok the back page was a combo of noth, septic fans with there usual bigotry and hatred with the gers banner. so i bought it. then inside, 7 celtic
ages, one and a bit rangers. whether or not in the past the media were gers orientated i know not. but now, its timland.
u only have to look at the witch hunt rangers have gone through the past couple of years.

To number 3, local newspapers usually provide information on local clubs, the DR is a west of scotland newspaper and its priorty should be to provide reading material for its target audience, i may be mistaken but are rangers not a west of scotland club and one of the largest fan bases therefore large percentage of target audience of DR are rangers fans. So why do they neglect to report on rangers matters cos we are third division. Its all a witch hunt. They neglect to report on a club that a large percentage of their target audience support. I personally have stopped buying any red top newspapers due to them not reporting on us. They think they are making a point or having a laugh by putting info on us 10 pages from the back. Its disgraceful buisness practice to neglect potential customers this way.

Is that why Partick Thistle and Clyde never get an inch in it mate aye. West of Scotland Paper lol They go where the news is mate, Celtic are stumbling in the SPL and have qualified for the biggest club tournament in the world. Rangers are struggling to win away from home and Charles Green is embarrassing himself and your club every time he opens his ignorant mouth. Oh and why the *CK would anyone care if Kyle Hutton has fallen out with Ally.
Its a nonsense to expect 3 pages on Rangers and 3 pages on Celtic.
Agree7
Disagree1
Yeah your right the the combined total of thistle and clyde fans far outnumbers any target audience potential that rangers have. For years celtic fans have played the minority card in this society always claiming that rangers fans would not give them jobs etc in fact you still hear people moaning about funny hand shake clubs and the sort. But now suddenly rangers fans are the minority in the west of scotland and no longer deserve to read about their club as they are too few in numbers. Gotcha im glad someone alerted me to this new statistic as i wasnt aware that celtic are now viewed as the majority of target audience for newspapers in the west of scotland. Get real maybe if you actually lived in another part of the country you would find that newspapers report on teams local to their region. Try finding any news in an aberdeen based newspaper on celtic or rangers you will find little. Same with edinburgh they focus on hibs hearts. And rightly so. But our red tops are just enjoying their little dig back just now whilst we are down in the doldrums by not reporting on day to day events at ibrox. Only covering us when something big happens to boost their sales. Its shocking buisness practice end of

This deal with Adidas, does anyone think it might be used to soften the blow when BDO, the liquidators, say that the new club is trading too close to the old club?
Change of name/crest ahead again?
Remember too that there's the issue of gratutious alienations, always a favourite of liquidators and indeed forensic accountants?
On top of that there's the title stripping , trophy removing. And the dismal dross of Ally's teams to look forward too!

It's understood Green rejected the offer of EBT sanctions as Gers have still to be found guilty of any misuse of the Trusts. An independent commission appointed by the SPL will begin a hearing on November 13 regarding the alleged undisclosed payments.
So basically what we can take from that is there is substantial, probably overwhelming evidence already in the SPL's hands to remove them but because of a lack of cooperation they've went down the route of the commission!
The floor is going to be wiped with Sevco!

Draft Hampden documents show that Rangers were asked this summer to accept the loss of five titles and four Scottish Cups won between 2001 and 2011 in return for being parachuted into Division One, a deal rejected by the Ibrox club's chief executive, Charles Green.
So that would conclude Rangers history leaving them with 49,
Celtic would then be on 49 and in their 125th year could claim their 50th.
Cheats ultimately never win!
Believable22

We're on a blanket denial if we take the stance that titles will not be stripped or that it is just! It was like the few months before administration, there was so much information available that suggested that it was going to happen yet there was denial.
Again, the same with the CVA being accepted, our gullible support were still believing that the club would survive in tact!

Hi Ed, just been catching up with what's been happening lately. All this Adidas deals ,share issues , we have the BIGGEST crowd lark ! STOP STOP STOP ! let;s rewind & get back to what matters which is on the park. and what we have ALL seen so far since the season began is utter GARBAGE . The Big earners at our club should stand up & stand out in the 3rd div games,but sadly have been outshone by some of the part time guys who have to work at other jobs before turning up to play football for their clubs. Let's draw a line in the sand and start fighting for Every point that's out there to be won.you know what they say? A bad start... But hopefully a good ENDING ! Rant over ! W.A.T.P

Celtic fan and I come in peace.. Honestly! You guys have had to and will endure hoops fans riding you stupid. I have enjoyed the banter and believe me you guys give as hard as you get! But a serious question to you all who are in absolutely no doubt your club is in the mire. What are your feelings about CG and his ability to fantasise about this that and the other? I would love to get a picture on how you bears actually see him and his role. Believe me, I'm not taking the p1ss, remember, we went through almost the same heartache before Fergus rescued us. I am not on the wind up, it's just, I have had such different reactions from my bear mates. Ally is a Gers legend but he is not a Gers manager, that is clear and there have been several names put forward for the post, but as long as you have CG pulling the strings, he may go through with the threat of a 25 year contract for Ally. When you come out of this, and I'm sure you will, there will be a lot of secondary issues that will need to be dealt with i.e Stadium upkeep, hospitality, youth policy etc,etc, do you really trust CG to deliver a forward plan?

Rangers fans generally fork out £18million in season tickets. This year thats just £6 million as tickets 1/3 cost.
So fans sitting on £12million.
Come xmas expect this pocket to be picked, to save club, it could save club.... but will giving it to green save club, or keeping it for next owners (who could be fans alone)??

Look a lot of fans are bricking it thinking we are not beating teams by as much as we should or not beating them at all. Ally is having to operate in the worst possible time for rangers. Things don't come together over night sometimes they take time and a lot of fans ain't prepared to do that. Look how close fergie came to getting the sack before it came good. As for green who knows exactly what his motives are but we will have to just wait and see. Look he deserves respect because I will tell you one thing if it wasn't for him we wouldn't have a club right now. I am still waiting to see what happens with the oldco and how it will affect the newco. We need to know more about how the club is being financed what the figures are because it annoys me when Celtic fans come on saying we will be bust by Xmas. So it would be good for green to come out and tell us the figures

The truth is Rangers fans "conformist" approach stops any kind of rallying or indeed rebellion. There was no "Gers for change" and the club died.
4,000 supporters standing outside an empty Hampden just wasn't going to cut the mustard and £600K from RFFF wasn't even worth bothering about!
There's the assembly, trust, association etc etc and they've all been worryingly quiet!

At @3 they are all acting like sheep follow on every word cg says , even ally enchanting them ,,,,,,,,,,,,,, your club is dying and you are doing nothing about it . big bomber tried to get you motivated but you didnt take heed . when are you going to act and take control of the situation cos i for 1 will miss the frantic sometimes heartbreaking sometimes wonderful old firm games
