the main thing we have to do is forget about the complaint to UEFA , they are just trying to play mind game's before we play them so it take's all the focus of the game and we will be at our panic stations .

Just forget about it and hope the team just focus on the job at hand and beat them .

let the cry about it afterwords.

i see both us and them going through on thursday .
as mutch as i hate to see it , it could help us in europe for the next few seasons.

What is there to disagree with here

Evening fellow bears , been reading about wee Vladimir just there seems to be a even split by fans regarding his skills etc. I am one of the fans who like. All summer I've been posting about him regarding: what did he do last season come on as a sub 10 mins to go and won us the game. Killie at ibrox. Cup final at hampden etc. Any mate was talking about him at work and he come out with this.
Weiss had the most assists in Scotland last year. Don't know if it's true. Click believe if true etc. If it is not bad for guy who was always in the stand ?

Its true mate. Hope ally wasn't aware of this until today and has consequently changed his mind. The 6-0 thrashing of well last season, Weiss was KEY to the first two goals at least and possibly more, go check the highlights on the tube and see for your self

Can anyone please tell what the Salim Kerkar song is am dying to know it

To her i said the guys a living legend.

Salim kerkar once completed a game of connect 4 in 3 moves.

people who are saying wiess was the best player last season must be f***ing mental was he f*** he was very avrege he did play a couple of games that were good but that's it how many games did he have 10 at the most a think the credit should be going to jelavic and even though he isn't here anymore miller top scorer in and only played half a season

Totally agree,flattered to deceive most games,nothing more than a badge kisser playing up to the fans.

23 Aug 2011 21:09:49
weiss didnt play any cup games really last year.. mccoist was in charge for them... obv mccoist isnt his fav guy

League cup final he came on an played with a broken leg are u stooooopid ???

Erm hello? he played the quick free kick that led to jelavic scoring the winning goal against celtic. are you seriously a rangers fan? unbeleivable.

Oh good God A broken leg? Seriously what hope do we have in society with tubes like you around. I am completey mystified with that comment

It was a broken bone in his foot

Is that the same Thomas Buffel that played for Rangers playing and scoring for Genk tonight? He must be older than Davie Weir

He is 30

Yep same one, hes only 30

Hes only 30. He was a good player for us

Buffel is only 30

Yes it is an he is only 30 year old


T-Bear

Typical Tam Buffel leaves gers, stops
Having injury problems and re-establishes his international career. He never lived up to potential with us but compared to current players I'd take him back tomorrow.

Thomas Buffel was fit and available for selection up until the end of the 07-08 season, but Rangers refused to play him as one more appearance meant they would have owed Feyenoord another £500,000. That's how miserable Sir David Murray was at that point. A player of Buffel's ability would have strengthened our European run that season even further and may have made a difference in the SPL too. Shame really, was a great talent.

Buffel was top class

naismith looks like answer to that midfield problem we have, very hard working, very creative and lets davis do his job instead of getting cought up in square passes we edu or mccouluch, anybody els agrea?

Agrea man some clever people on here il tell u that we have agrea cought and mccouluch. brilliant il tell u that.

I can't see any reason as not to play with Naismith, Davis and Ortiz in centre mid with Lafferty, Jelavic, upfront and wylde supporting. This Defensive midfielder thing really grates on me when playing in the SPL, DM's aren't needed and Sunday proved that against an Improved Motherwell side, who looked better than Maribor, so why not just stick to the team that got your last good result

23 Aug 2011 20:45:18
Vladimir Weiss it seems divides the Rangers fans, some rating him and others not.

Those who don't rate him obviously lack footballing knowledge.

They would obviously rather go and watch players like David Weir and Lee McCulloch who offer nothing in a creative sense, than watch Weiss who, although lost possesion at times and sometimes lacked a final ball , gave us far more pace, creativity and flair than any player has at Ibrox in the last 2 or 3 seasons.

Spot on mate,a proper flair player,who will only get better and better,a sad loss for the bears,hope he has a great season,will miss him,rangers got under his skin,and he loved it at the brox.

How the hell can you compare Weiss we Weir, one plays on the wing and the others a bloody defender, wise up

Sorry but when do you expect a centre half (Davie Weir) to be creative??

Aye mate lack of football knowledge.

Weiss 4 million

Jelavic 4 million

Who would you rather have if it was your cash on the table.

Oranjeboom

4million for a guy who will sit on the bench....no thanks

Mate coz people dont agree with ur opinion on weiss doesnt mean u no more about fitba an if u think that ur a complete nugget is it not past ur bedtime ??

no bad player not worth 4 million in a million years did do enough just coz he came an watched games as a fan doesnt make him a good player yer an idiot

T-Bear

Ok he has bit of pace but first touch is terrible, give the ball away more times than not

God awful first touch, s**te final ball and ran into trouble 6 or 7 times out of 10. Now and again he got a good ball in or scored but otherwise far too greedy and tried to do too much. Never worth 4m If Walter couldn't get him to play it simple instead of being greedy from time to time then what chance would Ally have? He came to Ibrox as a fan and all of a sudden he's our best player. Wise up Paddy McCourt is exactly the same and he can't even get a game for the runners up

What most people miss about Weiss is that other teams put two men on him and so he created space for his teammates. He is 100 times the player Greg Wylde will ever be.

GovanFR

Weiss was too inconsistent. Too soft, he kissed th badge a couple of times, so what.

Picking players for a team is like doing a jig saw puzzle you might find two bits that fit in the same place but the picture is different depends what the boss thinks he needs

first time poster and seeing as how this is a rumour site, just thought i'd share this with my fellow gers.

Friend down south mentioned rangers are in pole position to land sturridge from chelsea on loan.

apparently villas boas likes him but doesn't see him in his teams plans this year.

just a rumour though i hope its true

Would be amazing if we could get him and he doesn't seem to be in their plans at the moment but I can't see it happening. He'll end up back at Bolton

Think there would be a possibility of getting him if we get through on thursday, otherwise avb would want to keep him in the epl for more competitive games.

Andy

I cannot see this happening I wish it was true but this dude stuuridge Is a bit of a player maybe if we were still in champions league.

Nearly peed myself listening to Declan on Clyde tonight. Haven't laughed so loud in yonks, timalloy it wisnae you wis it?

What did he say?

No, never heard it LOL Timalloy
Leave you with this piece of wisdom
You bears never open your mouths, without subtracting from the sum of human knowledge

Are you back again timashe? Talking SH*TE again. We Are The People.
Wee Winkie

He was priceless and he actually believes what he was saying what a diddy

He is a gers fan kidding on

Wee Winkie, there is cream you can buy now to make it grow bigger
Namesless brave ones, when you get lost in a thought, do you feel like a stranger there? LOL Timalloy

Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez is growing increasingly frustrated with the actions of Jose Mourihno and is not seen to be acting in accordance with the 'Royal' way. He has written a plan B shortlist of managers and according to the Spanish press Sir Walter of Ibrox is in and amongst the names. Smith would jump at the chance to manage at the Bernabeau as he has never lead a team to the Capitol city in his vast and experienced managerial career. OLA WALTER

Would absolutely love sir smith to get that job. However I will believe it when the blue pigs streak across the sky

Oranjeboom

SWS manager of Real Madrid NEVER IN YOUR LIFE, although I would love SWS to get his chance at a EURO giant like that.

I wonder if he will raid Rangers of Davie Weir to shore up the Madrid defence Messi,Villa,Sanchez,Pedro,Xavi & Inesta beware God is coming to townhaha

Mr Steve

Would love to see it but i HIGHLY doubt it. Language barrier would be a massive problem.

F***ing hell thaats pish

Brett Pitman-Bristol City, Charlie Austin-Burnley, Luciano Becchio-Leeds, Jamie Murphy-Motherwell, Sam Baldock-MK Dons, Jozy Altidore-AZ Alkmaar. 6 strikers that would be realistic targets for us and all for under 2million. Championship sides seem to raid the lower leagues of England for players so why shouldn't we? I reckon either of the 6 strikers mentioned would do us a turn. Thoughts? This isn't a rumour and i have not said anything about us definatly signing any of these players it's just an opinion.
J1985

Altidore wo do a job possibly and with him being american it would fit right in with our recent acquisitions.

Here's the thing... forget 2 and 3 mill plus players We wont win a Europa cup so we need to concentrate on the SPL... We have a great spine to the squad, all signed up on long term deals. We just need a sharp midfield thinker (Eremenko?) and if we can find one, a super fast wing man to back up Wylde, who we MUST keep, and it's 4 in the bag. We just need to win the league to get the CL cash, any further in Europe is a bonus...

I disagree with Eremenko completely. He is a very moody player and very temperamental.

I am happy with the likes of Davis, McCulloch, Ness, Hutton, McKay, Bedoya, Naismth, Wylde, Ortiz all being able to play in midfield. (Notice how I didnt mention Edu there :-P)

We need another striker to help Jelavic, Lafferty and Naismith up front. If we get that striker in then I am happy with our squad until January.

Bringing in a left winger to give Wylde competition, whilst sounds like a good idea may back fire and we would never see Wylde playing again this season

Edu is better than McCulloch

23 Aug 2011 13:28:23
As we need a striker as im sure you will all agree. Why doid we not
sign adzm rooney from ICT? He was free and would have scored plenty for us. Would have saves us a fortune as well. Low wages and no transfer fee.

Also how much money have we really spent this season? Not taking in to account deals for greegs, whittaker etc which in my opinion would be a running cost anyway.

I think we have spent approx 3 million on bocanegra, ortiz, wallace, bedoya and mckay. We have allso taken in approx 3 million from the charlie adam fee and selling bougherra. So in reality we have spent nothing. When are we going to splash the cash on some decent signings? All these bids of 3mil 2mil etc were never going to happen.

Wow how quick of you to work this out well done

Adam rooney signed for birmingham n scored n his las 2 matches

If I remember right then Rooney wanted to move back down south. That's the only reason he left ICT, although I'm sure the money on offer down there might of helped.

Rangers team for maribor...what do you's think?

mcgregor


broadfoot bocanegra goian wallace


naismith/ortiz davis ness wylde


jelavic lafferty

Good team if Ness is fit which i doubt - more than likely to Edu in there instead.

Ness is very injury prone, worrying as he is very good and looked superb against Inverness

I honestly don't understand how when some folk put a team on here they either leave out Naismith or have Naismith/someone else Naismith, McGregor, Davis & Jelavic should be the first names on the team sheet

McMillan has to be at RB. He deserves a shot now.

Naismith is suspended

I reckon Ally will go back to a 3-5-2 for this game. With Whittaker out it will work well.

McGregor

Perry Goian Bocanegra

Ortiz Davis Edu Wallace

Naismith

Lafferty Jelavic

Ortiz has experience at full back and Wallace is not shy at coming forward so I can see this working. I know Wylde played well at the weekend but I would prefer him to come off the bench with 20 mins to go.

Bluegenius

More Blue than Genius apparently I forgot Naismith is out

Bluegenius

Wtf,, does none if you pay attention...ness injured groin/hip plagued him for years..naisy is suspended... Edu is anok player..looks like he needs a break.played a lot of football.

Mcmillan instead of bombscare broadfoot

McGregor

McMillan Perry Goian Wallace

Ortiz Davis Edu Wylde

Naismith Jelavic

Why is people putting in nasimith when he cant play are uz people really gers fans ???

yez shd know this

COISTY NEEDS TO STICK TO THIS AS MUCH AS POSS WITH THE EXCEPTION OF NAISY MCKAY AND BEDOYA IN AND OUT THE TEAM,
THIS TEAM WILL SCORE GOALS WATP. MON THE TEDDYS.

Hi Mark, saw your post on Celtic site last night, take it on the chin. Hey, as you like songs here are a couple for you ->
Fool if you think it's over
How can I miss you, when you won't go away?
Hail hail Timalloy

Hi timmo the fans over on the septic site say your sense of humour is unusually costic towards septic amongst other things but I will have to admit its certainly crap ... fail fail

Hi, if you think you are a wit, you are HALF rightLOL timalloy

Is this the same Timalloy that thinks SHEMALEARSE will run amok on Thursday.LOL although a do honestly hope for the sake of Scottish football your mhob manage to break tradition and get a 1:1 draw

Vladimir weiss in the sun today raging
At Ally's cause he snubbed him. I feel sorry for the little guy he would have been a legend at ibrox. Good luck son.

If this post is indeed true and I couldn't tell you if it is as I'm still reading page 3 of the Sun....... then he can rage all he wants.

He's a good player and I've no doubt his value will rise in the the coming years, but I still don't think he done that much when he was here last year. I thought Wylde was more exciting last year and we won't even give him £3000 p/w never mind paying £4mil plus wages. Would rather put what money we do have into a striker to help Jelavic and Lafferty. Please don't reply with we've got Heally and Hemmings. Heally looks like a builder and is way past it, at best an 80min sub to snatch a goal. Hemmings is too raw this year to really push for a starting place. Midfield looks quite strong if we can keep everyone and so does the defence with the emergence of the youngsters. WATP

23 Aug 2011 09:19:16
who does weiss think he is slagging mccoist in the papers today ..maybe if he done the business over a whole season ally might have wanted him but the plain fact is he never . just because he sang a few rangers songs doesnt give him the divine right to be given a deal ......bigt

23 Aug 2011 08:49:53
Long story short. A lad that used to work for me now works for Raymond Sparkes company. He tells me Rangers are very VERY busy rite now and although none of the players are on his books, word is that 3 or 4 new players are imminent Oh, and this made me chuckle, Kneel Lemming has slapped a bid in for Accrington Stanley keeper Sean Murdoch... world class or what

Ment to have just made a bid of £150,000 wont be too worried with lemmings cuddleathon with Forster wont matter if the guy is any good or not lol 4IAR

ALF sends out a come and get me on sky transfer news

I did that in 1972, and I am a plumber now''''''''''''''' so, what ?

Alf who?? alf garnett....alf stewert...?

Adam Le Fondre im guessing

23 Aug 2011 05:21:31
of the spurs boys linked (unofficially) livermore would of been most likey but even that looks a long way off as hes played a few game for 1st team now and did well will harry really let him go

23 Aug 2011 01:27:48
Weiss desperate to come back but peed off at Ally for not bidding for him so looks like he'll sign for Kiev within 48hrs UNLESS we make a bid. Dissapointed as he really wants back at Ibrox. Source Sun interview tomorrow. Maybe this means that Mr Whyte has no cash, or doesnt trust Ally Mc to let him spend £3mil on a player who will only go up in value?

Weiss said Ally didn't want him. No
Conspiracy theories no whyte skint maybe Ally didn't think he was worth the money which based on his up and down season last year I tend to agree.

23 Aug 2011 00:43:41
what if ?
niver mind allys no daft and our team is good . wanst the visas clear and injurys are by wee shall not b an easy team to beat . youngsters are good tae wee will win 4 and arow , up and onwards
