Morelos pays for Columbia--and is worth 15 million everyday technical ability needs a crash course but I like his new role Roofes goal has put us on a different planet good times are finally coming --suck it in.
23 Oct 2020 23:53:55
He looks nothing like a 15mil player at the moment. 👍.
24 Oct 2020 00:18:56
True. Roofe or itten should be starting now to be honest. Alfie's been well off the boil for ages. He's had very bad first touches and terrible passes the last few games. As I said ages ago, we've won most games the last six months without Alfie scoring. Give the new guys a chance.
24 Oct 2020 06:30:23
We’d be lucky to get £5m for him, honestly I can see him ending up in the Middle East or perhaps the championship.
23 Oct 2020 20:49:23
Any fellow bluenoses recommend an iptv provider that doesn't get any sports channels with rangers tv.
23 Oct 2020 21:10:01
sorry above was meant to say doesn't get any sports channels cut off including getting rangers tv.
23 Oct 2020 21:20:02
I can supply this
Media 2 Media.
23 Oct 2020 21:20:32
I think those who provide IPTV service would prefer to remain anonymous.
23 Oct 2020 21:30:03
Nice try davie, undercover fed! 🤣.
23 Oct 2020 22:53:01
What's IPTV🙄👍.
23 Oct 2020 23:17:43
Iptv is the thing costing sky, BT etc a fortune. TV online firestick etc pay £60 a year and get thousands of channels from all over the world.
Rangers TV and many others, all the sky channels, basically you can watch anything. I've heard it's pretty good.
23 Oct 2020 23:49:33
Might be wrong but think you missed the humour there 3 cheers 🤣.
24 Oct 2020 01:01:56
Yes snell you were wrong.
I did indeed get the humour hence why I've only heard it's pretty good. I wouldn't dream of using such devices with me being a firm believer in defunding the BBC hence I'm not allowed to watch live broadcasts on my TV being a non license holder.
24 Oct 2020 03:03:22
😂😂😂👀👀👀.
23 Oct 2020 20:36:55
Strikers go through spells where they can't hit a barn door, the good thing is we have alternatives now, maybe take alf out of the team, then if we are in a position when the game is won bring him on probably a goal or two would get his confidence back.
23 Oct 2020 20:53:25
Really should have been punted last month. In severe danger of the player being let go for buttons.
23 Oct 2020 21:01:31
Bluewoulddothemanwithoutaclue.
23 Oct 2020 21:02:28
Why would you care if he did bluewoulddo?
You think he's sh*t and tell us that pretty much every time you post!
23 Oct 2020 21:14:37
Change the record blue! Gerrard wants him in the team, and that's good enough for me! And we seem to be doing ok.
23 Oct 2020 21:19:38
The only time bluewoulddo ever posts, is to slate morelos.
23 Oct 2020 21:24:50
Herewego you are 100% correct mate that’s all he ever does on here contributes absolute nothing other than soaring fredo.
23 Oct 2020 21:32:37
Morelos doesn’t look confident to me.
Last season he just belted everything towards the goal whereas this season he has been asked to do a more complicated role.
Last season he would have buried last nights chance instead of passing.
He will learn and start to click again soon. More understanding of his role, sharper and with no guarantee of a starting place will see him back on fire again in the next month.
23 Oct 2020 22:26:11
Is it only me who likes what Alfredo has been doing this season? He's been getting moaned at for ages for being greedy and selfish, this season he is more involved with the build up play, dragging defenders out of position allowing mid runs into the box, he's even been back helping out the defence! Plus he's got a few goals, fair enough his goals to games ratio is dropping but for me he's doing a lot of the dirty work and forms personally it's refreshing to watch.
24 Oct 2020 02:40:02
Why keep a passenger in the team?
24 Oct 2020 07:14:06
Fax I’m with u re Morelos. The goals will return.
24 Oct 2020 08:18:36
BWD obviously SG doesn’t think he is a passenger.
Daz I like what’s he is doing but some people can’t/ won’t see it but that’s up to them.
24 Oct 2020 10:33:49
Terrible deflections unfortunately.
24 Oct 2020 10:36:09
When a player has been continually rotten, they should be dropped. No player is bigger than the club.
24 Oct 2020 11:06:21
So let me get this right. A ST who was banging in goals with a potential value of 20mil! Now has a new role where he doesn't score goals and will potentially be worth less than 10mil?! Surely our club would benefit from the original role where he scored goals and could make us 20mil🤔. I think some people are at it🤭😂😂👍.
24 Oct 2020 11:32:17
Coldo you need to take that up with the manager not us 🤭.
24 Oct 2020 11:54:20
Coldo gives us the experience of your brilliant tactics and explain why Sg continues to play Morelos. Rightly or wrongly in my opinion he is trying to get Morelos to play in same role as firminio.
If I thought blue won’t do knew anything about the game I’d ask him.
See ibrox guy still sulking re his team losing last two games.
24 Oct 2020 17:05:19
Again, awful deflections. He's been terrible, only have to look at the chances squandered. What ever happened to the role of scoring a goal?
23 Oct 2020 19:08:52
I see the totally unbiased BBC are at it again regarding Steven Gerrard's comments on Roofe's wonder goal. These ars#h@les would have to use a very long rope and a set of crampons to even reach the gutter. Sad bitter and vindictive wee men.
23 Oct 2020 19:41:55
ITV main news at 6 covered Roofe, s goal as part of it, s National new stories.
We are getting good reviews from other sources why bother about bitter twisted and biased coverage from certain individuals.
The futures bright on all fronts
Proud to be a Bluenose.
23 Oct 2020 20:16:11
Piers Morgan said it was the best goal ever seen. Even Sutton praised it.
23 Oct 2020 21:02:12
Who cares what the bbc say.
23 Oct 2020 21:24:54
The BBC are as corrupt as the SPFL and SFA. Full of Liberal lefties. Ignore them.
23 Oct 2020 22:20:48
BBC as we all know have agenda against us. do you ever see them calling out the mankies. No stories about the fact that Lennon turns up at training at legoland stinking of drink, no story about his bust up with Brown after Rangers game, the French guys want out, Jullien was fit for last weekend but fell out with Lennon at training it’s typical all this happens but no BBC reporting of it.
23 Oct 2020 23:46:15
Probably because it's not true bigeck. They won't base their stories off a what's app doing the rounds.
24 Oct 2020 08:04:15
Your right Snell I'd imagine that's all bullsh*t.
The BBC do have a record of posting bullsh*t stories though.
24 Oct 2020 08:19:47
Big eck they won’t run with those stories because they are all made up BS.
Have you any evidence that this happened?
28 Oct 2020 10:01:38
eck, I may have missed something, and if I have I apologise, but I've saw your accusations there and not one piece of proof, although I say I may have missed something, you use the word fact, therefore there must be some form of evidence somewhere surely?
23 Oct 2020 18:43:02
Interesting how people come on here saying we need our head looked sticking up for Alf.
Manager says Itten and Roofe need managed and slowly giving game time.
So that means it's Alf for now.
The man who counts SG is still sticking by Alf.
The real bonus is we have options that we did not have in the past.
23 Oct 2020 20:37:57
Fredo is under performing John and has been for some time now. Other players deserve their chance. 👍.
23 Oct 2020 20:51:36
Coldo like who, u saying Sg does not know what he is doing. He says he needs to protect Roofe and others.
I know Fredo under performing read my posts.
But I suspect the manager knows better than me and you.
23 Oct 2020 20:55:04
I still think Alfredo looks off the pace, taking bad touches more often than not. He is working hard but below par performance for me.
23 Oct 2020 20:59:50
Totally agree bgate, yet manager keeps picking him.
23 Oct 2020 21:20:51
Needs a bit of confidence.
23 Oct 2020 22:14:52
true, his first touches are rotten at the moment, that said he had some really nice interchanges last night, . he is definitely a player with no confidence. does benching him improve confidence of course not. if he wasnt trying that would be one thing but you can't say he isn't giving it all, maybe actually he is trying to hard. one thing for sure we can't just drop him for a period of time since his value will drop more than it has. he just needs to start getting a couple of goals and he will kick on.
23 Oct 2020 22:29:31
Roofe or itten John. I did read your post that's why I told you the same thing that you agreed with bgate🤷♂️👍.
23 Oct 2020 23:05:22
He is dragging opposition defenders all over the place, hence the space for others to exploit.
24 Oct 2020 07:15:34
Point is coldo should keeps picking him.
24 Oct 2020 08:21:30
Exactly Irvger some people choose not to see it doesn’t suit their agenda IMO.
28 Oct 2020 10:02:25
theres a nagging feeling that if goldson hadn't scored twice last week, nobody else scored, because the main striker wasn't in the box. imagine drawing that game after dominating for 90 mins.
23 Oct 2020 16:57:02
Roofes confidence will be through the Roof wi that visionary masterpiece last night and under those horrendous conditions, may never be replicated goodnight Beks.
23 Oct 2020 19:02:23
Decree, surely he's earned a starting place for Sunday's game? Drop Morelos and Hagi.
23 Oct 2020 19:45:28
The stick that Morelos is getting on here is ridiculous we should be getting behind our players last night wasn’t his greatest game. He should have scored one and unlucky with second chance but his all round play is improving and seem that at times last night. I think he just needs a goal and we will see the real Alfie back. Whatever happens he always has my support and still keeps opposition defenders on their toes. I’d have Roofe right Kent left and Alfie through the middle. So McGregor tav Goldson barasic in defence jack and Kamara sitting Kent left Roofe right Arfield behind Morelos. Anyway roll on Sunday and hope the sheep try and don’t lie down to that lot.
23 Oct 2020 19:56:13
You do know we won last night the stuck don't you?
23 Oct 2020 19:58:54
He will become a better footballer now that he is forced to become a team member and away from the Me Me attitude--hats off to the boss --15 million is a stretch now though.
23 Oct 2020 20:37:10
He is playing for the team did you not see times in the game where he was tracking back he is just short of confidence hence why he tried to pass ball back to Arfield when he was one on one with the keeper. As I said if he gets a goal or two he will start banging them in again.
23 Oct 2020 20:54:55
Least u see it James Reilly, did u see him appear at right back and close down a cross in To our box,
That’s not a player hiding and being lazy.
He does need to get the goals going again, but as I have said at least we have options.
23 Oct 2020 20:55:06
Naw mate a fit confident Alfredo will shoot on sight so since he passed with a sight of goal tells anyone way half football brain he needs a short sharp boot up the hoop as in itten Defoe or roofe starts in his place.
23 Oct 2020 21:05:25
Okay he’s not fit but he is chasing down defenders tracking back I don’t know what you deem as fit. All it is he is lacking is confidence in front of goal. Didn’t you see his clever back heel to send Arfield through on the right in the second half. Get behind him and stop slating him. You must have a very short memory as well.
23 Oct 2020 21:08:45
Exactly James but some people on here need a scapegoat even when we win games like BWD etc. it’s fredo and hagi at the moment.
23 Oct 2020 21:16:39
Some on here need a scapegoat no matter what the results on the park.
23 Oct 2020 21:22:02
Its beyond a joke kj 👍.
23 Oct 2020 21:38:30
I’ve said it many times on here
“Av made up my mind and Alfie is shi*te and am no going to change my mind fur naebody”. Said a good few FIFA experts on here.
I’m confident that the will soon be disappearing soon when Alfie hones his shooting boots again.
Keep the faith, our manager has it all under control but there will still be the odd bump in the road.
23 Oct 2020 22:01:43
The lad is working hard and he never hides. I'm sure he'll start scoring again soon. Hopefully Sunday.
24 Oct 2020 08:08:39
It's all the "told you so" brigade have left.
We're undefeated in the league and Europe this season and posters still being negative about the team or certain players!
28 Oct 2020 10:03:08
dee, it certainly will be replicated again mate, forevers a long time.
23 Oct 2020 16:56:42
Predictions for Sunday people I'm going 3-0 and Alfredo to be on bench not fussy weather its itten or roofe who starts either will be better than fredo on current form and attitude as well.
23 Oct 2020 19:03:53
Sirwalter, let's hope they don't have 11 behind the ball again on Sunday.
23 Oct 2020 20:52:26
Stuck even if they do I'm very confident wee have ability and most importantly the confidence wee will pick them off like the classy outfit wee are.
23 Oct 2020 20:55:33
Sir Walter Morelos will start, listen to Sg today.
23 Oct 2020 21:09:41
Sir Walter nothing wrong with his attitude at present.
23 Oct 2020 23:09:58
I don't care how many they put behind the ball, we'll score, and hopefully early in the game.
23 Oct 2020 16:04:32
Right guys we all know that other mob are diluted still saying they have by far the best players let's look at this We have 2 good goalkeepers wouldn't touch any of there's then whoever they throw in at rb wouldn't budge tav then there many leftbacks wouldn't lace born as boots and less said about there cb partnership the better so right away there's 5 of there great team that wouldn't get anywhere near our dressing room.
23 Oct 2020 20:03:33
On the evidence of the last old firm game then I wouldn't pick any of their team to replace any of ours.
I've heard many celtic fans say none of our 11 would get in their team but me thinks it's the opposite.
23 Oct 2020 21:48:52
I’m going to try to attempt this without showing any bias
McGregor
Tav
Goldson
Helander
Barisic
Kamara
Jack
C McGregor
Christie
Kent
Edouard.
23 Oct 2020 22:03:38
Nah Broxi. Davis, Arfield and Morelos 🤣.
23 Oct 2020 15:39:11
Right going to start by saying what a fantastic result last night away from home. 3 points and another half a million in the bank. But what's everyones view on morelos, seen all this rubbish about his new role etc. Though he was again horrendous last night. 1st touch is nothing short of shocking. Surely now he must take time out the team. Almost like he is scared to have a pop at goal. Tav in form of his life and has been great, even defensively which is massive for his game. let's see if we can get an early ish goal on sunday to help open game up a bit.
23 Oct 2020 15:41:51
He's got a fight on his hands with Roofe for that position.
23 Oct 2020 15:47:34
He looks like he needs a spell on the sidelines. Give itten or roofe a chance. Fredo coming on the last 15 minutes. He needs a goal.
23 Oct 2020 15:48:47
Paul, I thought a strikers job was to put the ball in the net. What does Gerrard want from him? Yeh, his first touch is honking and he still carries that petulance threat. I would drop him but hey I'm not the manager.
23 Oct 2020 15:50:08
I know what you are saying but how did we manage to beat a team unbeaten at home in Europe in 6 years (15 games) with a "horrendous" striker on the pitch and I'm reading that Hagi was poor as well so we must be winning these games with players short. I just don't see that point of view what I see is us winning games.
23 Oct 2020 15:54:54
He needs dropped pronto would like itten to get a run out.
23 Oct 2020 16:08:16
Hes certainly not playin with confidence. Last season there's no way he would have rolled that ball to arfield in thr 1st half. Itten or roofe can easily put in a better shift imo.
23 Oct 2020 16:26:19
Yes we were great but at the moment I think we can improve by dropping Morelos. Hagi isn't doing it at the moment but we all know his potential. Weve a great squad which is making the difference this season which will win us trophies.
23 Oct 2020 16:49:17
I’d like to see Itten giving a run in the team as well.
23 Oct 2020 17:03:06
Guys I don’t think it’s coincidence that alfies best form for us was after a full pre season last year when he looked a lot leaner and fitter than he does now, he looks overweight to me. there's no harrassing the goalkeeper or Centre halfs the way he did at the start of last year when he was absolutely on fire. has he lost interest which in turn makes him work less for the team? Who knows! But he does need dropped at the minute and I’m one of his biggest fans. on his day when he’s fit and hungry he looks totally unplayable. love the wee man but he needs to get the finger out now.
23 Oct 2020 17:12:14
I think Alfie did a good job last night, and yes he had a few poor touches, but also laid the ball off really accurately many times. He had 2 shots on target and worked hard. Give him a bleeding break oh whinge mob. He brings a lot to our team and once his confidence is back he will be fine.
23 Oct 2020 17:50:52
He just needs a goal or two that’s all.
23 Oct 2020 17:52:46
I was really impressed with roofe's strength and hold up play last night, his touch and movement was also good. He deserves a chance because fredo hasn't been great for a while👍.
23 Oct 2020 18:11:04
He's certainly gave the manager a decision to make whether he deserves another start. His lack of goals and loss of a decent first touch then I think a spell on the bench will do him good and give Itten or roofe a chance.
23 Oct 2020 18:33:41
He was horrendous, the rest of the team carried him.
23 Oct 2020 19:35:45
He wasn't great but he certainly wasn't horrendous.
23 Oct 2020 20:06:40
If he can stay fit Roofe will be key this season. He is some player.
23 Oct 2020 20:52:07
Roofe definitely showed his strength, great option.
23 Oct 2020 20:56:00
Bizzmybox anybody whos played at a half decent level can lay the ball off and pass it back easy enough. Its really not hard.
23 Oct 2020 20:57:13
Southend I agree with u, remember blue would do really does not like Alf.
23 Oct 2020 23:43:51
He will start scoring again.
23 Oct 2020 15:22:05
Not trying to put a damper on anything but we haven't win anything yet. This is not a negative post just my opinion, the last 2 seasons in October I seen the same stuff on here then by February it was all gone, we are playing well but some on here think we are invincible which is so far from the truth, we are 4 points ahead with the potential of it being 1, the way some fans are going on you would think we were 20 points ahead.
23 Oct 2020 15:28:49
Wise words sweep1, we would all do well to keep our power dry until something actually won. Only a fool celebrates victory before It’s actually achieved.
23 Oct 2020 15:33:20
We are invincible right now as we haven't been beat in the league?
And everyone knows we haven't won anything yet unless the SPFL have called the season early in the last couple of hours and handed us the title 🤔🙄
But there's no denying right now the team are in a very good place.
What's not to like?
*Top of the league
*Undefeated in the league
*Easily beat the Tim's whilst playing poor
*Off to a flier in the Europa League with an away win
*Another clean sheet
*Competition / cover for places in the squad
*And most importantly the Tim's are rattled 👍.
23 Oct 2020 15:44:43
Am not sure anyone thinks or has claimed we're invincible. Have a few posters went over the top with their praise/ excitement? Maybe, a little.
I think most realise there will be highs and lows in the season.
Consistency and good quality options in the first team squad was where we lacked the last couple of seasons.
Hopefully with a much stronger squad, all able to contribute we'll have a good season and win the league.
Bearing in mind there was posters wanting SG sacked if we didn't win old firm game. 🤔
I'll take all this positivity any day.
23 Oct 2020 15:49:47
Sweep you are right, we haven’t won anything yet and there is a very long way to go on all fronts and a lot can happen. The way we are playing and the results we are getting is positive though and hopefully long may it continue. But we do need to remain realistic and sensible and not get carried away.
Can I just point out though, that works BOTH ways! Ie when we do next have a bad result / performance (which will of course happen at some point) can the merchants of doom and Gerrard, Tav, Goldson etc bashers please also not over reacted and also remain calm.
23 Oct 2020 15:57:02
You're correct sweep, we haven't won anything, and anybody who thinks it's a given, needs a reality check. Now, I can be the most pessimistic and cynical out of everyone (as certain posters have stated), but even I sense something different, and I am going to enjoy every second of it right now.
23 Oct 2020 15:57:28
Yes you are right Bankie, only fools celebrate b4 anything is won. A bit like celtic celebrating when league wasn't won.
23 Oct 2020 16:43:15
Sweep. You start by saying you don't want to put a damper on things and aren't being negative, then write a negative post! I don't think any of us Bears on here take anything as done and dusted in October after the last 8 years we've been through but for goodness sake, look on the bright side. We are 4 points clear at the top of the league, unbeaten this season and playing really well. The signs are better than they have been and we are about to emerge from that long dark tunnel. For goodness sake, cheer up and be a glass half full merchant!
23 Oct 2020 17:54:00
100% agree with you sweep people think we have already won the league it’s embarrassing and they could be in for a big fall of the rest of the season doesn’t go our way.
23 Oct 2020 17:54:30
Brexit jam they won the league last season it’s that simple wether you like it or not.
23 Oct 2020 19:06:13
Doiger it’s not negative it’s being a realist.
23 Oct 2020 19:57:17
Who has said we have already won the league?
There's been plenty of posts where folk think we CAN win the league this season
I don't see that as anything to be embarrassed about!
23 Oct 2020 20:07:58
Didnae win it KJ 👍.
24 Oct 2020 15:49:43
Kja9,why have they got a wee *, does that mean anything.
They were awarded it. Fact.
26 Oct 2020 08:51:28
I feel different this year. I feel we have a stronger squad and more quality but more importantly we look a stronger unit. How many people last year said we were reliant on Alfie, we’ll look how well we’re doing and Alfie hasn’t even started yet! A long way to go as you say and nothing’s won yet but I have a different feeling about this year.

Looking forward to Sunday against Livingston but starting to get a bit nervous. Livi have already took points off us this season and the fact that there’s no fans means it’ll be like playing at a neutral venue and it’s almost guaranteed that they will sit with 11 men behind the ball. There’s no point taking a march on Celtic if we’re going to drop points in the next game, happened too often in last two seasons. It’s a must win and I’ll be happy with 1-0 own goal in the 92nd minute.
23 Oct 2020 14:35:20
Winning on on Sunday just as important as last night or last weekends victories.
23 Oct 2020 14:45:56
Don't worry about things like this Broxi, we've got the players to open them up, we played badly at Livingstone, we've come a long way since that, I'm confident we'll beat them, we have to, if we want to win the league.
23 Oct 2020 14:53:19
Spot on bankie, its imperative that we take advantage of our position and show we have the mentality👍.
23 Oct 2020 15:30:01
Well said Coldo, believe the signs are good.
23 Oct 2020 15:50:22
I don't think livi will post the same challenge when we play them in the wide open spaces of Ibrox.
I think we'll win and might even give them a doing!
23 Oct 2020 19:07:52
having no fans could be a bonus and allows our players to be patient breaking them down with the boo boys.
23 Oct 2020 14:02:29
A would just like to thank stevie g and his team for bringing back respect to our glorious club. A remember the days having to go into work after pedro's team got humiliated in Luxembourg. We just didn't know where our club was going or what farce was coming next. I'll be honest I started to doubt if good times would ever return. Granted we no won anything yet need to stay grounded, but for sure we have won respect back again. Its good being a fan again.
23 Oct 2020 14:11:17
One things for sure, the rest of Europe won’t see us as a push over the way some Celtic fans seem to think we are.
23 Oct 2020 13:50:15
It’s great to beat them the way we did on Saturday but it was only 3 points we won long way to go in the season and when we win the league that’s when to gloat not before it.
23 Oct 2020 14:00:48
I'll take any chance to gloat over that shower and their current abject misery and fighting amongst themselves.
Consistency will win us the league.
23 Oct 2020 14:09:28
Correct KJA9. Let’s just take one game at a time and see where that takes us. On to Livi on Sunday, a must win game.
23 Oct 2020 14:48:01
All games are must win games at Rangers, the players now realise that.
23 Oct 2020 14:55:34
Consistency is key but we do need to remain grounded👍.
23 Oct 2020 15:09:26
Common guys, we can slag them without going totally overboard, that's what being an old firm supporter is all about, ie. bragging rights 👍 Nothing at all wrong with that! I'm confident in my team and i'm living for the moment and enjoying giving them it tight 😂🇬🇧.
23 Oct 2020 15:21:33
Here Here MPH. I'm not celebrating winning anything because we have won nothing, but If I can revel in their misery, I will be all over it! I make no apology for my behaviour. 🤣.
23 Oct 2020 15:44:26
I'm all for the gloating and rubbing it in hard. Yes we've not won anything and of course we need to take 1 game at a time because that's how it works. I'm celebrating the fact that we've just absolutely gubbed our rivals, we are playing better football than them and it's not us in disarray for a change. We are not calling for our captain to be dropped or for our manager to be sacked, or watching a useless 40k per week loan player that cost 2million for the privilege and a 5 million useless goalie its them and you better believe that I'm enjoying every minute of these great times and long may it continue.
23 Oct 2020 17:02:29
Gloating is good. Slap it right into them.
23 Oct 2020 17:20:12
I hope the same posters who say we need to remain grounded remember their own advice when we drop points with a draw after they lost their minds the last time calling for the manager to be sacked, new captain etc👍👀.
23 Oct 2020 17:52:20
SGL I agree but a lot of fans going overboard with it and we all had the same feelings last season and looked how that turned out 👀.
23 Oct 2020 20:11:57
Exactly bluebell I couldn't believe the amount of posts on here after the hibs game which we only drew calling for Gerrard to go. Utter madness in my opinion and hopefully lots of them have changed their tune.

23 Oct 2020 12:31:58
We need to get the guy that negotiated the Duffy deal for Brighton working for us. Not only did he get them to take him for a season he also got them to pay 2 million for the privilege, absolutely genius.
23 Oct 2020 12:41:40
If ever there was a panic buy, that was it! I posted a couple of days back that he is costing them 95k a week through loan fees and wages. 95k a week! Remember, he's only going to be here for around 40 weeks with no sell on value as he's a Brighton player, so it's definitely not money well spent. Brighton must be pi@*ing themselves.
23 Oct 2020 13:09:39
For that money they could likely have got Fraser Forster who basically won them the League Cup last year.
Instead, in another example of Lennon's inspirational buying policy they decided to punt Craig Gordon on a free and shell out 5 million on Barkas, a keeper that is nowhere near as good as him.
But don't worry Celtic fans, apparently your team played well in the second half last night (when ACM had already won the game and went into 2nd gear) .
23 Oct 2020 13:17:57
Celebrating winning the 2nd half of a game of football!
Saturday's defeat has destroyed them more than we can imagine. 😂😂.
23 Oct 2020 13:29:08
Hopefully no egg on our face later in season with all these comments about Duffy. He is major threat at set pieces and expect him to respond strongly.
23 Oct 2020 13:47:27
Exactly bankie too many fans thinking we have won something already 🙈 nothing is won in October keep our feet on the ground and keep winning.
23 Oct 2020 13:48:31
You're spot on bankie, shane duffy is good at set pieces, but slower than me on the deck and diabolical on the carpet! Zip the ball around him and he looks like a big coo 😂I've seen milk turning quicker 👍.
23 Oct 2020 13:56:55
Until that day comes Bankie (If it ever does) we will continue to rip the p@ss!
23 Oct 2020 14:03:02
What's not to like and get excited about currently?
We had more shots on target from our own half last night than the Tim's had at home to the Famous on Saturday! 😂😂.
23 Oct 2020 14:50:29
Duffy will cost them more goals than he'll score.
23 Oct 2020 15:48:42
We have a better CD than Duffy in our squad and he can’t get a game.
23 Oct 2020 12:16:27
Celtic fans trying to tell me that we played Standard Liege reserves. A quick check shows that of the starting 11 against Brugge in their previous game 10 featured last night against us. don't let the Celtic deflect lads. We are the people.
23 Oct 2020 13:13:39
Yeah said on commentary last night that there was 3 missing and only 1 who had started the previous game. Is it any wonder Celtic are trying to deflect away from their poor performance. Some fans are saying they played better in 2nd half because they changed to a back four, nothing to do with the fact Milan were already strolling at 2-0 and had took their foot of the gas, evident but the fact that they scored another once Celtic scored.
23 Oct 2020 13:19:36
Deflection is all they have left.
One claimed the Roofe goal was a fluke and the game should have been abandoned due to the weather! 😂🤡😂.
23 Oct 2020 13:34:06
They were missing couple of players probably only one of whom would have started match. Great performance and wonderful result last night, let’s win on Sunday now.
23 Oct 2020 13:48:07
Who cares what they say or think.
23 Oct 2020 13:49:46
That mob are obsessed with the famous! 😂.
23 Oct 2020 14:05:10
And we made 3 changes to our starting line up that beat the Derry Donkey and Co on Saturday👍
And we still won, ending Liege's 6 year unbeaten home run in Europe. 👍.
23 Oct 2020 14:55:01
Totally agree KJ couldn’t care less what they think.
23 Oct 2020 15:17:53
Celtic fans have enough to worry about, the banter years are over and they don't like it.
23 Oct 2020 11:59:19
I seen some ugly scenes after th famous Glasgow Rangers victory last night. it switched over to the celtic team coming out of their tunnel 🤣🤣🤣.
23 Oct 2020 11:56:13
The difference this season is definitely strength in our squad. We have four very good centre backs, two Scottish international goalies, Good cover for the full back positions and a midfield squad which seems to blend whoever plays. And Roofe and Itten have hardly had a chance to make their mark yet (although Roofe certainly did last night! ) . This all augurs well and I really believe that we won't be seeing the silly points dropping of the last couple of seasons at places like Kilmarnock and Hamilton. All praise to Gerrard and his team. #55 is on the way!
23 Oct 2020 11:30:21
Hi
Rangers breaking records this season, destroying Celtic, scoring world class goals and top of the league.
Celtic struggling on all fronts, Lennon soon to be sacked, players want out and their fans angry.
The main reason for all this is the appointment of Gerrard, he has now got us going in the right direction.
Hope this continues for a long long time.
Onwards and upwards.
23 Oct 2020 11:40:07
Always said Gerrard should be giving time to build a squad capable of winning the title from a settled Celtic side.
Kneejerk reactions like changing the manager every couple of seasons just ruins the club financially and no stability in the playing staff.
Long way to go.
Consistency is the key against the other sides domestically as we've proven now we're to good for the Tim's and are competing at a not bad level in European competition. 👍.
23 Oct 2020 12:58:12
I hope those SG doubters now see the great long term strategy that is in evidence here. He has an ethos and style that he demands, and now that the players fully embrace and understand this, we are soaring onwards. I hope we can continue this for a VERY long time.
23 Oct 2020 13:49:18
We still haven’t won anything yet.
23 Oct 2020 13:54:52
If you were a young upcoming football and had no allegiances to any of the old firm whatsoever, who would you want to go and play under?
Popcorn 🍿 teeth neil lennon, or the immaculate world known steven gerrard 😂Not being bisaed, but its absolutely NO f*****g contest. One resembles worzel gummidge and the other is a thoroughbred, who is immaculate in appearance and everything he does!
23 Oct 2020 11:25:44
Guys what a result last night and let me just say this.
I have and will admit in my moments of madness called for Gerrard to go and even said I didn't think he was the man for the job
But I have also said before that and after that I'm glad he came and always wanted him to be the one to deliver 55
I do have my off days and will make crazy comments my bad lol out of pure frustration and having a tendency to see the red mist
But I'm first to hold my hand up
Been a tremendous season so far and have said previously the board need recognition too for backing him the way they have
I don't think anyone anywhere can knock the Board or Gerrard for what they have all done collectively to Rangers Football Club
Not getting carried away we might not win the league but what I have said previously if the team shows spirit and fight and can take it to the final games I would be happy
And shows progress so even if we don't win it this year
With the momentum we're showing just now the strength in depth we now have the European runs we're having we're only going to get bigger and stronger and I will say it here and now I hope Gerrard is here for A long time to come even without winning the league this year
The team has came so far and I think Gerrard himself has came so far from where he began when he first walked in
The board the manger the club are growing every day and the team play for each other now like never before.
Long may it continue
Last night was fecking awesome 😎
Even if we didn't get a result last night I wasn't going to get to upset but the more the game went on with there diving shirt tugging stepping on heels OMG I was raging haha
Best feeling to win that game last night how good was our team during the full game everyone kept there cool and played our game plan
It really was something else can't remember the last time we have played like this In Europe the run of results over the past few seasons has been incredible
Europe is taking notice of Rangers the team and Gerrard as a coach
Incredible where we're going from where we were words can't explain😊.
23 Oct 2020 11:52:01
Good to see somebody is man enough to admit their mistakes re Gerrard.
I've often been critical of Tav's captaincy myself though not his playing abilities over the last year. Do I regret this? No, I feel that such criticism has maybe played a part in him upping his game to prove his doubters wrong.
23 Oct 2020 13:24:21
I've been guilty of calling out your passion for negativity Stig. 👍
Good of you to admit you were wrong.
Sometimes it's difficult to see the wood for the trees.
And we've had a few bumps in the road along the way but from fingers crossed we are now heading in the right direction.
Consistency domestically is the key. 👍.
23 Oct 2020 13:50:51
I have been guilty of it as well but still not won anything yet.
23 Oct 2020 14:01:37
Good results recently but we really must win the league this year, or it's adios gerrard.
23 Oct 2020 10:14:58
I love this, now without everyone getting carried away, we are seeing the fruits of Gerrard's labour. he said he had a 3yr plan and the board backed it. Its great that we all have opinions and i'm sure we have all disagreed at points.
Those who wanted SG gone will, i'm sure, be delighted of the work that's happening now. Its been a longong time.
The idea of having some boys ( Tav, goldson etc) they might not be the most gifted but they are willing to fight for the cause, both players mentioned seem to be a diff level right now! I think empty stadiums are allowing this. maybe when we break that trophy less streak they will relax a little and won't feel n hear every wrong word or sigh from the stands.
We are no finished article and with the boards backing and talks of future investment and plans.
Lets hope we get a wee break to the CL next year in the back of a couple of trophies ( the league of course)
Oh what I would give to break their hearts with winning the league and winning a treble 😂 after Aberdeen beat them. twice in a row 😂.
Anyway, we have a great squad now and that's a massive thing to have. We swapped 3 last night n looked no weaker.
Its a. good wave we are riding right now and let's not get too. down if/ when we feel a loss.
There is a diff feel about the squad n attitudes this year. let's enjoy it.
23 Oct 2020 10:46:14
Apart from the muppet I don't think anyone else wanted Gerrard gone, most just wanted the managerial errors cut out and a plan b. To be fair he does seem to be learning from his experiences and he is adapting tactics to suit. I don't want to get to excited because we have done well previously and then fell away but we do look very good. I think fredo will lose his place to be honest. Our squad is looking strong, I was quite impressed with bassey last night. 👍.
23 Oct 2020 11:28:40
Fredo needs a goal. I'd maybe change things up, play itten or roofe. Let fredo come on from the subbie bench.
Options, something we haven't had for a long time.
23 Oct 2020 11:43:57
You can see that Roofe is a better player than Morelos from a technical ability point if view.
Bassey was immense last night. Brilliant signing by the management team.
Even Jack, who for me doesn't start before Kamara and Davis, was outstanding last night.
We now have genuine competition for places all over the park. 👍.
23 Oct 2020 12:23:43
Could always try Alfredo playing in haggis position with rose though middle. Always fancied seeing alfie come in off the right.
23 Oct 2020 13:32:52
Potatohead morelos would have scuffed that shot last night. Crazy folk still stickin up for him. Gave nothing last night terrible 1st touch even had shooting chance inside box 1st half and rolled it to arfield.
23 Oct 2020 13:42:06
Bassey was brilliant last night coldo, he's impressed me every time he's had a chance so far. Looks like he could be s top player.
23 Oct 2020 13:46:55
Morelos should when roofe is fully fit be on the bench, he was like a man down at times last night.
23 Oct 2020 10:06:02
Excellent result and performance last night. Everyone played their part and thought Jack and Bassey were particularly good. Nothing won in October or December though.
23 Oct 2020 09:48:19
Another brilliant result, this time in Europe in horrendous conditions.
All about the 3 points again. 👍.
23 Oct 2020 09:45:18
Now UEFA have released their FedEx performance rankings and Tavernier is the only player from Rangers or Celtic in the top 100.
To make it even better, he's listed in the top 10 with 2762 rankings points from the opening game of the campaign.
I wonder how much Rangers would actually value Tav at the present his value will have sky rocketed that's for sure
think he might be taking over Morelos value 😂.
23 Oct 2020 10:54:57
I've already held my hands up stig and admitted I was one to have a pop at Tav and laughed at some of the figures that were getting bandied around when we were debating his value. I'm not laughing now mate! Tav is head and shoulders better than any right back in Scotland right now (there are none anywhere near the level he is at right now) so his value to the team? Priceless! His value in the transfer market? That one I will leave to the experts.
23 Oct 2020 11:30:30
BMGHO1 definitely mate he is priceless
It’s been some season so far pretty unreal the way the team is now performing on all fronts
Just keep taking it a game at a time and knocking the points on the board and see where we are come the end of season 😁.
23 Oct 2020 11:47:58
That's it mate one game at a time. All we can do just now is enjoy where we are, and revel in Celtic's misery. 🤣🤣.

On fire
What an absolute screamer.
23 Oct 2020 09:22:24
One of the best.
23 Oct 2020 03:49:16
We now have two leaders Gerard and Tavernier who is a captain a captain marvel an organiser on the park! And he now has some help with big Goldson at the back! I am now confident that this team can lead us to stop 10 in a row 😉.
23 Oct 2020 09:41:02
I think the lack of audience has helped. We can hear the players shouting to each other. Tav is not as quiet as we thought.
23 Oct 2020 00:13:14
But but but!
fifa 2021 said Shane fluffy was the best player in Scotland 🤔 😂😂😂😂😂😂.
23 Oct 2020 01:02:27
He's a great ball kicker ouch.
23 Oct 2020 06:38:04
He's a cart horse, at fault for the 3 goals last night. He's only 28, looks and moves like he's 48. I think they paid 2mil loan fee for a year🤦♂️😂😂👍.
23 Oct 2020 08:09:47
Totally agree as Duffy is dreadful! He looks overweight and is slower than a week in the jail🇬🇧.
23 Oct 2020 08:42:48
And Nellie was happy with the performance, oh my!
23 Oct 2020 08:51:13
We all thought Sir Rod was a Tim but he might just be a secret Gers man the way he pleaded with Shane Duffer to come up to Scotland . 😭🐴🦛.
23 Oct 2020 09:36:00
Duffy is absolutely dreadful, no wonder he was fifth choice at Brighton, He must be regretting his move now.
23 Oct 2020 09:49:17
The Derry Donkey! 🤣.
23 Oct 2020 12:04:02
They would have been better signing Jim Duffy out of retirement. at least he'd still have a bit of pace about him. 🤣
🔴⚪🔵.
23 Oct 2020 12:25:16
Seemingly the Derry Donkey is costing the Tim’s 94 grand a week with the loan and wages. 😂😂🏴⚽️🇬🇧.
