I'm just home from the game and i'm a very unhappy bear, Not just at our performance but the support too.

Under 30000 at the game and after our poor performance in the first half a group of guy got up and desided it would be better off going to the pub for the second half , that is the sort of support we dont really need coming to our game's and after slagging off the septik since sunday to hear our own supporters singing the billy boys was not good especialy as we are o suspention from Uefa for 3 years for our conduct and if a report of this goes in we could be in big trouble.

I don't know if these people singing are season book holders or general people coming to the game as the price was cheaper and singing the songs .

STOP SINGING GARBAGE AT GAMES AND SUPPORT OUR TEAM PROPERLY.

REMEMBER OUR SLOGAN FROM 2003
"KEEP THE FAITH"

WE HAVE EVERYTHING TO PLAY FOR

I didnt actually hear any sectarian singing..heard it at the hearts game from the hearts fans and im not happy that nothing was said about it in the media if it was rangers we'd have been absolutely slated fer it

I was in the main stand tonight and a large portune of the crown was singing it in the first half . I even had an argument for a group of guys for singing it but not many people backed me up.

I heard the singing in the govan stand and i was not pleased either even the tims in my work where texting saying they could even hear it on the radio .

The tickets were £25 for a qualifier why do u think there was 30 000 there plus im not saying ppl wernt siniging it but on the tv i could only hear the edu version of it

26 Jul 2011 23:50:16
Tell me something r we out of europe? Lets get behind the team its malmo not man utd next week, well are there so tims slatin us? When was the last time they even made CL?

We're out, because the players are s**te, Whittaker is in the comfort zone....deal done....Wallace is mediocre and a joke at 1.5m, bougy wants to leave...Edu is an embarrassment, Weir is done, Ortiz can't pass anyone, and the manager is the new Tony Mowbray.....long long season ahead with no leadership

26 Jul 2011 23:29:49
just my opinion but i think rangers should go for eagles again i think he would be a great player for us and with a little bit more money meybe he would come WATP

He has signing for bolton ya numpty

26 Jul 2011 23:26:33
I have honest to god had enough of edu get him tae hell and i dont know what the hell naismith was doing tonight i cant believe im saying this but i cant wait to lafferty is back..and i think its an absolute disgrace at the number of fans that boo'd the team off the park, yes we played crap but its not going to help by makin the players feel even more miserable {Ed046's Note - i was at the game tonight and we missed lafferty really badly, or just someone up top then put naisy rm

Lafferty was playing brilliantly with Jelavic naisy just isnt a decent finisher he proved that tonight hes a good playmaker usualy..i honestly cant see why we insist on playing edu though i cant remember the last time the guy contributed anything decent to the team..think it was the valencia game but then he went and cancelled that out by scoring an own goal

26 Jul 2011 23:35:12
We are always better away from home anyway so I am very confident that we will beat them in Sweden

26 Jul 2011 23:20:00
was at the game tonight , was a disgrace we need player or were fekked , give ally a chance tho hes only just got the job

26 Jul 2011 23:06:01
LOT of complaints;

1: Ally you are not walter get in the dugout not the stand, and shout at the players if there playing bad

2: Edu and McCulloch are s**t together in the middle of the park and provide no flair or vision between them

3: Ortiz is a right winger

4: Naismith should be playing in the hole behind Jelavic and a new striker ... maybe Goodwillie or Laff when hes fit

5:Davis ALWAYS central midfield plus we definately need a new central midfielder, THIS SHOULD BE MAIN PRIORITY preferably a box to box player but i think this will be difficult on the stupid offers we currently puting in on players, Vaughan wouldve been ideal

6:Weir is to old now, although he is a legend his legs are going shouldve let him bow out gracefully maybe the arrival of Goian will make this true who knows

7:For christ sake stop Bougy and Whittaker both bombing forward at the same time, leaves a huge hole at down the left for opponent, hearts in 1st half and malmo for goal crucified us here

8: If you want a left sided mid/winger sign templeton of hearts, he looks a huge prospect

9: Got plenty more but cant be f***ed too pissed off at the lack of insight... i shouldnt be saying this ally, durranty and macdowell should

Still despite the gloom septics still got that ginger minge in charge so heres to 4 in a row

8. surely between papac-wallace & wylde the left side of pitch is sorted

3. until ortiz has the pace to beat a man, it doesnt effin matter what effin wing he plays..... poor greg wylde eh ? {Ed046's Note - when ortiz came on tonight, him and wallace played really well together

I would agree with most of what you said except I think Naismith is best at right midfield and that Edu and McCulloch are s**t all the time and neither is good enough, especially McCulloch, he is talentless.

GovanFR

I personally thought mcculloch was ace playing the holding role last season b4 his injury

8. surely between papac-wallace & wylde the left is sorted ..... papac is rangers most consistent player i give you that, wallace i dont think we needed and ally obviously doesnt trust wylde seeing as he isnt playing him plus templeton tore us apart in first half on saturday, albeit whittaker and bougy helped make him look like messi by their bombing forward with complete disregard to defending

26 Jul 2011 23:00:15
In the voice of lloyd Groseman "Who'd play for a club like this?" Rangers played horrendous, there was no conviction, the commentators tried to justify the poor show tonight with Rangers being not 100% match fit, Whyte cant shoulder the blame Ally must step up, he choked tonight, he should have acted. Edu strolled about the midfield tonight when Wylde should have came on. Honestly how can Ally stand with his head resting on his fingers and watch a heartless team kick a ball and not fire on somebody, anybody. The commentators said Ally may not feel anyone is ready to play in a champs league qualifier but i found thinking well why the hell are they there then. Never regret the things you do but regret the things you dont do. Something from Ally would have been better than nothing, If weir didnt get a ywinge would he have made any subs?

Perhaps, a wild assumption or a bit illogical but would it be possible Ally didn't make any subs in order to force certain players towards another 90 minutes fitness wise? Personally I think he choked and was maybe also hoping they'd rectify it and use it mentally to overcome the obstacles in the next leg.

26 Jul 2011 23:02:39
Just seen billy davies getting out of craig whytes car at ibrox.

No u didnt

Stop talking rubbish lol

Hope he's brought his bits then

The Gers support are banned from the away leg so I wouldn't worry about sectarian chanting there.

I seen him too. Dont know if should read too much into it though.

26 Jul 2011 22:57:32
Look bears, i'm not being defiant but I'm sure we will overturn this and win against Malmo away. I watched the game and we were bad all over the park, Allan McGregor is a complete legend and we are very lucky. Undone by a Whittaker mistake but McCoist should have brought Wylde in on the left instead of Ortiz because although I think Ortiz is a good player he's not a left sided player. Lee Wallace was really good. It's hard to not get too downhearted because we should be winning these games and it's hard to take Rangers playing so bad. For the first time ever i'll say it - sell Edu, i've defended him so much but one or two good games a season is simply not good enough. We will turn this around though. Rangers till I die.

26 Jul 2011 22:55:48
It is now an official OPTA Index stat: Neil Lennon has won more trophies as Celtic manager than Fat Paul Le Guen has won Rangers games as manager.

26 Jul 2011 22:54:35
Most of our players have won it all in scotland so it's about time we got more fresh blood in who are wanting to prove them selfs and challenge the rest of the team for a place in the starting 11.

26 Jul 2011 22:51:30
Why dont we look at buying some malmo players? Just a thought?

Come to think about it, would they be roo embarased to sign, what so u think ed? {Ed001's Note - to be fair they are in mid-season, Rangers are right at the start of their season, I really don't know why people are getting so worked up.}

I think its becsuse money is of the essance and 10-15m is too much to lose because of errors knowing to all fellow bears. Even so rangers should be winning these games whatever the situation and even preseason, agree ed003? If this was your team? {Ed003's Note - I would have expected at least a draw tonight}

26 Jul 2011 22:40:46
question to ED.... if gers get signings in this week, will they be allowed to play in malmo ? If the answer to above is yes, then gers must get the correct players in, they must play against st jstone to get bedded in for next wednesday.... simply going to malmo with the same team including goian, will see us out of europe simple as that {Ed001's Note - no, they can play in the next round but not this one.}

Then i have "NO DOUBT" at all, we will not overturn this 1-0 deficit next week.. its never been done historically.. add to that we will have no fans there.. and also the gers team are way behind malmo in terms of match sharpness...... hate to say it lads but europe is over not at all an over-reaction... just a fact from a football lover who can clearly see the score

I think rangers should take the cheque book to st.johnstone and sign murray davidson there and then he will do far better on the park than the majority of the team who played last night you dont have to look outside scotland on this occasion davidson will be a very good player for us..wait and see.

26 Jul 2011 22:46:20
I have already said Ally should get the boot and I got pelted for it. He has no experience of being a manager of a football team. He's hidden behind Walter in his shadowing roles. It's nothing personal. Ally was a great player and has a good personality, but he like Neil Lennon did last season shows that he has less of an idea what to do than the fans. I think Lennon did whatever his fans suggested. In general I agree with most peoples comments on here, players being played out of position, weaker players in the team, strange formation, poor tactics. He doesn't even have much of a backing team either.
Ally got the job by default, a favour from Murray and Smith. Rangers men looking after Rangers men, not necessarily looking after the clubs interests.

I hope we get to the champions league group stage for money purposes, and that is very selfish indeed. Like for many years, we do not compete there and its getting worse.
However I don't see it happening. I see us slipping into third spot or perhaps lower in the league, and Ally departing from Xmas.
Maybe there is something else going on in the background. Maybe as others have suggested, Whyte wants Ally out.
I see a Paul le Guen scenario all over again. Only thing is, there's no Barry Ferguson to kick Ally out the door. But I don't think Whtye would think twice about doing it himself.

Wot a pile of craig whyte about lennon doin what the fans said...he brought in a full team of his own, decided who played where and wen n also got them playing the way he wantd. Sally has smiths team, playin smiths tactics bt still cant cut it. Aw well, wen he gets his jotters Gordon Smiths there to step in eh

Back to the playpen swampy

26 Jul 2011 22:39:42
Celtic fan in peace
Is that youngster ness injured he seemed like good player what I seen of him last year surely better than edu & mculloch there's also your other youngsters Hutton, wylde

Ness is still injuried, he didnt even go to germany. agreed Hutton would do a better job than both mcculloch and edu.

Ness will be gers cptn one day.

26 Jul 2011 22:38:09
please please sack mccoist , 541 not good anuff, then he changed it when he realised it wasnt good anuff with ortiz coming on for weir, ortiz at left wing he is a right winger what the f***, we were 1 down we kept mcculloch and edu in centre midfield both are centre denfence midfielders .naysmith not a out out striker , we are 1 0 down and we didnt put wylde healy or hemmings orr felck on to try and change it joke , pleasse please get mcois out please, plus whittaker 20 grand joke

Notice the ones saying sack MCCoist are that intelligent they didn't even notice what formation we were playing. It was 3-5-2 FACT. It should have been 5-4-1 that would have worked better.

GovanFR

26 Jul 2011 22:33:01
Ed How many posts have you had in the last few hours lol {Ed003's Note - Too many lol,my head is spinning}

26 Jul 2011 20:37:30
Ed, are Blackburn still looking at Mo Edu for 2mil? We should give him to them for half price to get rid of him. No heart no skill not a Rangers player. {Ed003's Note -Dont know}

26 Jul 2011 22:26:57
Agree, i do miss big lafferty hes allways confident and i think when he gets back he cud get 20+ goals. Thats if ally plays players in suitable possitions.

Ortiz must be thinkin wtf has he came here for? Hell be playing in goals shortly n mcgregor up front.

I realy fear for ally but i wonder whats going on in his head?

26 Jul 2011 22:25:06
if i was a player being linked with Rangers at the minute i'd be keeping a wide birth... gonna have to improve if we are to sign any new players

26 Jul 2011 22:32:07
why is whyte getting away with penny pinching?? ally got his tactics completely wrong why does mcculloch get away with less abuse than edu? both are terrible mr whyte u should be paying fans back instead of players this week

26 Jul 2011 22:29:06
plz post this....

Right firstly, DO NOT start this Ally out GARBAGE. Its all new, the players are all used to playing a certain way and have been for yrs, thats clearly not how ANY ONE OF US wanted to continue. Mot said we never have a go, ally will.

We all need to remember yes Ally was in charge of cup games etc however... IT IS NOT his team He has a defensive side trying to play attacking fball (albeit not v well)

We need to accept that at the start there will be teathing problems, we realistically may not started turning out half descent performances for a month or 2.

YES WE NEED NEW PLAYERS, but the right ones Yes mcculloch is a sloth and edu is purely not good enough, you all say why is he getting a game yada yada, WHO THE F**K ELSE IS THERE

IF YOU ARE A REAL FAN YOU WONT TURN YOU BACK ON ALLY AFTER 2 COMPETATIVE GAMES You never turned your back on walter after kaunus...

No matter what you say, Lennon was awful when he started... he was a coach like ally was took over the same team and they were awful, celtic fans were callling for his head now look at them, they love him Alex Ferguson at Man U...

Let him get HIS players in, then judge him.

SOME OF U ARE SOOO FICKLE ITS SICKENING GET BEHIND UR TEAM AND UR MANAGER. IT WILL GET BETTER

Spot on bud. They are all glory hunters and smelltic glory hunters that mostly post on this site.

Doesnt matter if we get behind him or not Whyte is not backing him and hes the only one that counts

26 Jul 2011 22:28:25
I hope the Rangers support are getting an apology from ally mcoist after 2nites debacle bearing in mind when we lost to kaunas super wattie was in charge and he apologised - you cant sack ally mcoist he has
to be given time to do it and he will do it he lives and breathes rangers and again I say the filth have kept lennon we have to keep ally get rid of whyte if you want but ally stays he, s not a legend hes a human being get behind him you bunch of mormons
show everybody what we are made of be men again not silly old women...

26 Jul 2011 22:19:50
An absolute disgrace, every one of those player bar McGregor and jelavic should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves. They just didn't seem to care, what else can you say after that? Totally sickened by that "display" as i'm sure is every other gers fan.

26 Jul 2011 22:16:11
Fact chriss brunt was sitting up in club deck this evening expected to sign 2morrow just wot we need ...butch the bear

So was my auntie agnes mate, shes still to get a fone call from gordon smith, u mite c her at tomorrows press confrence along with mr brunt.

Yeah no chance your getting him worth about 4million

26 Jul 2011 22:15:39
we need weiss in quick

26 Jul 2011 22:14:08
We will drop into Europa league play off if knocked out next week so our embarrassment will continue

We are out altogether if we dont beat malmo, no europa cup

No we won't we are out of Europe completely if we lose next week

Eh no we won't out altogether Have to reach next round to drop into europa

We are out altogether if we dont beat malmo, no europa cup

No we won't we are out of Europe completely if we lose next week

Eh no we won't out altogether Have to reach next round to drop into europa

the uefa website says the teams going out in the 3rd round of the champions league drops into the europa

26 Jul 2011 22:11:13
We never won the league last year we was gifted it from Celtic, don't think we will get much gifts this season

Don't talk carp. We won it fair and square. what about us losing to utd did we gift Celtic the league. Naw we never. Every team wins and every team loses. We WON the league. Jesus give yourself a shake man.

Have to agree with the original post mate, don't think it will go to the wire this year that Celtic team has gelled and sickens me to say this but They are miles better than us at the moment

26 Jul 2011 22:10:26
No more excuses, this is a joke 4 yrs ago ally was on question of sport, now he our fekn manager WTF
am dreading this season already

26 Jul 2011 22:08:07
there is a lot wrong here at the moment but it can be set right- on the park problems are resolvable its the off field problems with craig whyte that are needing addressed I think he should have a public meeting with the fans to discuss the clubs needs in an open way he should have plenty of listening to do and let ally and macdowell get on with sorting the players heads out I think all the long term contracts has spoiled them etc keep them hungry and you, ll have winners

26 Jul 2011 22:06:02
I agree that edu was very poor again but hes not as bad as mcculloch hes dreadful man get him to make the tea edu going missing isnt as bad as naismith, davis and whittaker continuously making errors davis get back to reality and stop playing long balls with not enough pace to get there and whittaker should not be allowed to cross the ball naismith has been very poor, should have scored 4 or 5 goals in the last 2 games winger, right back, stiker, centre back and creative midfielder needed for us to be competitive

fauldsrfc

26 Jul 2011 22:06:50
Out of Europe again, not good enough Mr.Whyte.

26 Jul 2011 22:04:45
TAXI FOR McCOIST Diabolical

Dont you mean a bus a taxi is too expensive for whyte

26 Jul 2011 22:03:53
ALLY McCOIST = GERS LEGEND FACT
unfortunately it doesnt = management material
tactically niave, why oh why only the 1 sub used tonight, screaming out for one of the youngsters to have a go, surely it cant be too long before he plays Ortiz on the right, surely it cant be too long before he gives Whittaker a rollicking for 2 shocking performances in 2 games and finally surely it cant be too long before Edu is told to GTF

John Greig Syndrome?
Rangers legend as a player to failure as a manager. Poss easier for someone in that situation to manage elsewhere first instead of taking role straight away although McCoist has had the coaching experience. Quoting him tonight though "Our midfield players were getting too far ahead of the ball" Surely that's not a bad thing but I never saw much of that and you won't with both McCulloch and Edu there and "We had one or two younger lads on the bench and it's maybe not fair on them, throwing them into it" perhaps some kids on to play with no fear would have been an answer Crying out for Wylde on left, Ortiz on right, where he has yet to play() and Davis as a box to box with probably Edu holding as McCulloch, like Weir, is finished. And clear to me that Whyte doesn't want McCoist, he wasn't his choice as manager and won't back him with £, will bump manager and give new boss funds in jan window

26 Jul 2011 22:02:27
Get this. Official rangers site says. Rangers slump to shock loss. Well you should have bloody well done something about it sooner. Like possibly 2-3 weeks ago. Instead of talking about how much money you will be spending why the hell didnt you spend it on some decent players because I tell you what Mr Whyte. There ain't to many decent players with a rangers shirt on at the moment.

26 Jul 2011 22:01:17
cheerio 4 in a row

We lost 1 game in Europe so how have we lost the league already Give Ally time

Away back to your runners up page. 4 still on. No problem. We bet you with the same team last year.

We bet you with the same team last year

how much did you win in the bet

and its not the same team. no weisse, bartley, forster so your squads thinner than last year and if we are to beleive what you say weisse was the best winger in the spl so he will be missed

26 Jul 2011 21:53:03
We were awful tonight, edu and mcculloch cannot play together in midfield, both are rotten. There is no pace at all in the team, and little ability. I have to say the signs for ally are not good. Why did he not have Ortiz right, Davis, Naismith in middle and wylde. Not great but at least some pace. We need players badly, because if we don't get them soon the season will be over before august is out. There is also a distinct lack of passion and effort. I know this is start of season but they don't look at all fit, mind you they are all old. I am very worried indeed.

26 Jul 2011 21:58:07
Sally must stay

God bless Neil lennon

ED. Why would you post this pish. You won't post my reply to it that's for sure.

Go Home

Free neil and trevor

26 Jul 2011 21:55:55
Isn't it ironic that after all the years without money we had Walter at the helm then when we've got some cash to spend we give it to a rookie manager there's no doubt in my mind were out and not even Europa league to fall back on what a shambles edu and Mcculloch don't get me started on these two clowns

26 Jul 2011 21:55:38
1 win in the last 22 games in europe

26 Jul 2011 21:54:47
Shocking and now the wife complaining im in a bad mood, cheers mr whyte
Sell our club and all our players and buy tevez and only feild him and he would do a better job.

Amazon n ebay will be loaded with fellow bears selling their tickets for chelsea game lol.

Sorry bears but this has to change, im behind my team 100% But this isnt rangers anymore its becoming a farse

26 Jul 2011 21:54:25
Remember at the start of last season. Ex-Celtic player turned manager Neil Lennon had a bad start to his managerial career. They were put out of Europe by Utrecht and Braga and he was odds-on favourite as the first SPL manager to be sacked. But then he led his team to 2nd place (1st if not for Inverness). As a die-hard Rangers fan it pains me to compliment Lemon but he did a good job over THERE. I am just hoping that McCoist can do the same but this time, not bottle it at the end. But remember the ex-Gers legend John Greig. He took charge of Gers and failed miserabley. I just pray tht McCoist's reign as manager does not go like Greig.

Ally has had more experience now than Lemon before he started the Celtic managers job

Diffrence is their owner backed their manager whyte you are a disgrace go back to motherwell the bank run us better

26 Jul 2011 21:52:02
Thats the worst i have seen for a very long time Everybody i have spoken to over the last 6 months has doubted Mc Coist beginning to get that Le Guen feeling. Sorry Ally

26 Jul 2011 21:51:50
Jezuz feck, I hope this is just a slow start to the season. Edu is a totally useless tard, how many times can you give someone a hospital pass or give it straight to the oppo before you get chucked?? Weir should be ditched as well, he was embarrassing. I've never been one to jump the gun after a bad result but tonight just hacked me of royally, bet I'm far from the only one

26 Jul 2011 21:51:28
What a f***in disgrace, everyone of them should hang there heads in shame especially whittaker, who held the club to ransom and for sum reason thinks he's a top class player. If the last two games are anything to go by we r f***ed this season.

After tonite that person whyte mist realise he can't f*** about with these embarrassing bids for players.

Whyte, after watching tht pish tonite u must surely realise u nd to get the cash out, bt I bet I'm nt the only rangers fan here thinking he's gonny spend f*** all.get out the two mill for goodwillie, the two mill for verhoek. Get bedoya in now aswell as at least another centre half and two centre mids.

As the great Walter smith sed, we can't kp askin the same players to kp up the standards they hav yr after yr, they nd sum help.

A very pissed off bear

26 Jul 2011 21:51:12
That was a horrid display, we lacked in every part of the pitch, Mcculloch and Edu can do one Can't see us getting a result in Sweden on that performance, i'm really starting to think Ally is in too deep, Walter would never have let that happen, we need new players fast or i fear Celtic will have the league wrapped up by Christmas B-(

HBN

26 Jul 2011 21:50:58
ally gt his tactics wrong again, ths is th team i think we shud hav playd
4-4-2
gk shagger, could hav been 3 if nt for him, thank f**k he signd
rb whittaker, another game wher he has been terrible 20k a week, nt worth haf ov tht
cb bougherra, would cash in on him nd gt anothr defendr
cb papac, most consistant player in th team
lb wallace, boy shud gt a chance bt doubt he wil gt in th team while papac is fit.
cdm edu or mculloch both hav been terrible bt al we hav nd cant play together
rm ortiz, he needs a chance to play his natural position
lm wylde, i think ths is our answer 2 our wide problems
cam davis, needs 2 play thru th middle to be creativ
fw naismith, had his chances bt i dnt blame him cos he had 2 drop deep
fw jelavic, he has had no servic othr thn long ball.

Although we had chances in th 2nd haf i think th negative tactics half 2 stop nd whyte needs 2 gt players in or else its bye bye 4iar nd out of europe

thots?

26 Jul 2011 21:21:20
is it only me who thinks McCoist is way out of his depth ? Im worried, just want to know wat u think ed ? {Ed001's Note - I feel sorry for Ally personally, he is stepping straight into a huge job with very little support from the boardroom. I think it would have been best if he had been removed immediately and ended the uncertainty surrounding his position. All the odds are against him succeeding in the short term, given time he might well grow into a great manager, but I just can't see him getting time.}

26 Jul 2011 21:49:34
I'm glad we've got st. Johnstone this week as it SHOULD give our lads enough of a run around to get back into shape while at the same time posing a slight defensive challenge (doubt they'll play too attacking although after tonight...). If we can lok comfortable and get a win there we should be able to get past Malmo

26 Jul 2011 21:48:02
Ed or anyone else? Is it Criag Whyte or Gordon Smith that puts in these low bids for players?

26 Jul 2011 21:47:04
after that deplorable performance we badly need another cb a right winger cause everything was down the left we also need a couple cm cause davis is getting made to do everything with no help from anyone we also need a striker to play alongside jela we've been let down again same as when knocked out by kaunas did'nt spend the money then knocked out then we signed players its gonna be a long season unless we spend get your wallet out and sign decent players gregbyt

I don't think we need a couple of CM's we need 1 to be a creative fource. Edu as much as I like the guy he has been playing KAK, but Erimenko would be my choice if not someone like Nuri Sahin not actually him, but someone with his style of play>

26 Jul 2011 21:46:52
why doesn't Mculloch play as a defender? we don/t play holding midfielders but he doesn't seem to understand that. Edu, i won't even begin to criticise as its all been said on here already. I will pay Ally £20 for him and tell him to never go near ibrox again. Imagine if it was celtic we were against tonight? What should be a routine 2 to 4 nil win at St's on saturday isn't looking so easy now.
I hope Ally can become a terrific manager - which im sure he will be one day as he knows the game well - but i question the amount of experience he got under walter. I still trust we can make it past Malmo but, bears, thats not the point. Our bear minimum objective in Europe HAS to be not to lose at home regardless of opposition. He's not done that tonight. I just hope that this poor start just makes a domestic treble and the champions league trophy we win this year look more dramatic.In all seriousness, though, i've got faith we can do well but we better start doing well soon.

mr WHYTE you JUST SEEN RANGERS GET BEAT NOW GET GOODWILLIE FUR GOD SAE DOO NOT LET HIM get AWAY YOU KNO WE NEED HIM NOW FUR GOD SAKE GIVE THUM 2MILLION

26 Jul 2011 21:45:36
That was f*ck*ng pitiful. No passion, no bite, no spark, no shape, no skill, no end product. Too many passengers out on that park the last two games and it aint good enough. Glad i decided to stay in with the weans tonight and save some money Speaking of money: Whyte if ever there was evidence we need more quality in that team that was it STOP offering peanuts for players and wasting other clubs time and start spending this money we were promised for new players.

P.S Do you think Bursaspor would still be interested in Whittaker ED? Or is that just wishful thinking on my part?

26 Jul 2011 21:44:04
I think we should get rid of Edu Whittaker Beattie Healy and Kerkar. All of them are a waste of money.
I believe we should strengthen our squad with the likes of Goodwillie

26 Jul 2011 21:41:39
here we go again. Craig Whyte can't you see how badly we need players. your luckily enough to be in a position to do something about it, so why don't you dig deep and help the team.

He will. M

26 Jul 2011 21:40:42
This is beyond words.this rangers side totally inept.

26 Jul 2011 21:39:38
Why can the management not see that Edu is worse than a man down. He has the best job in the world, picks up a big fat paycheque and did not even break into a sweat tonight... Give one of the kids a chance.

26 Jul 2011 21:38:59
OOT We have won 1 in 22 Euro ties, holy f**k................ DISGRACE

26 Jul 2011 21:37:09
Come on guys, it's still early days. I think McCoist will be a top class manager and lead the teddy bears to 10 in a row, who would've thought Larsson would once again make his mark at Ibrox. Chin up guys, get behind the team......Miko

Sorry to say but a supposed assistant manager for three seasons and he can't see that Wylde should play on the left instead of Ortiz is just blind stupidity. He's gotta get it together and fast. I still feel well qualify but AM has gotta see what's his best lineup. Players now

The only 10 in a row ally will get is games without winning
Hammy

26 Jul 2011 21:36:20
My fellow bears, I am totally disgusted by tonight's performance. Ally has demonstrated a tactical naivety in the first 2 games, that even Dunfermline will be able to exploit this year.

26 Jul 2011 21:31:51
Honestly why would anyone want to come to a team who play with no heart, Edu should be called the floater, he just seems to toddle about the pitch watching the game pass himby, wylde may be young and inexperienced but holy sh*t McCoist should have dragged Edu off by the n*ts and threw Wylde a bone.

26 Jul 2011 21:28:07
Is that us in the Europa ?? Smellik level ? Dire, Bears, DIRE

No we don't even make that unless we get thru this round of qualifiers. Things need to change quickly or we will finish behind hearts never mind Sellick

26 Jul 2011 21:26:26
Jelavic needs a partner, and Edu and Big Lee should be let go, need a central midfield player

26 Jul 2011 21:23:32
OK, no doubt I will be hounded here by my fellow Bears for my dis-loyalty to the cause, but here goes... I earn £12 an hour on a building site. I have never earned money from football other than the odd punt, but even I like most Rangers fans CANNOT understand why Rangers allowed a dud like Steven Whittaker to hold us to ransom? Not once but 3 times he knocked back contract offers until he is now one of our highest earners, on a FIVE year contract Just what is it he has over someone at Rangers? He can play in 3 different positions you say, what's the point if he's carp in all 3 The main problem is, if McCoist really thinks he's a player, were f**k$d

PS. Why did we not take Miller AND the money to buy Davidson and send Whittaker to Turkey...

26 Jul 2011 21:17:44
Why are we playing Edu on the right and Ortiz on the left. Get Ortiz on the right, we need width.

26 Jul 2011 21:06:58
I think its time to let the kids on the park, give them a shot, they seriously cannot do any worse than the utter toilet on display.

26 Jul 2011 21:02:27
how are we suppose to create with a midfeild of defenders? mccoist tactics alll wrong.. no quality ... no passion, . neil lennon will be loveing this.

Willie tell snowy to bite whittakers erse

26 Jul 2011 20:49:32
Larrson man of the match so far 4 Malmo LOL

26 Jul 2011 20:48:22
Were absolutely p**H c'mon rangers get your finger oot think we improved when weir went off, but still not got the cutting edge. Final ball is a joke.

26 Jul 2011 18:02:59
spoke to a close family friend of david goodwillie, he will be paraded at half time tonight as a gers player watch this space - wullie ohara 100% record NOT.......
anyone seen goodwullie come 2 think about it anyone seen rankers

26 Jul 2011 20:41:46
This is torture my team are a laughing stock outplayed by a mid table Swedish side mccoist showed us his naivety by starting a 41 year old in a three man defence his new signing not deemed good enough to start yet now ortiz is on he has put three decent balls in the box if whyte had any sense he'd get rid of mccoist and his pals and the least said about mo edu the better this guy cost my club 2.5 m I've watched football for 20 years and I'm sorry edu is not a football player he is utter pish

He never played the romanian because he never had international clearance ya zoomer.

26 Jul 2011 20:41:03
As i've said all week if ally luvs the club he shd quit cause he aint manager material

26 Jul 2011 20:40:53
Time to turn on the watsignal and hope sir Walter sees it and comes to our rescue.

26 Jul 2011 20:39:02
will Mr Whyte get his finger oot his @rse and stop pr1cking about with mediocre bids for potentially league winning players.........1m Verhoek...............1m Goodwillie cmon give us something to get upbeat about cos this start is filling me with noting but dread............does e maybe want Ally to fail????

26 Jul 2011 20:36:23
Shock Horror, Whittaker to blame yet again for another Rangers conceeded goal...20k p.w. my ass

26 Jul 2011 20:31:02
if ever ther was evidence we are desperate for a central midfielder it has to be tonight, Edu is just garbage, you could take 90% of the fans from the stand and they could do a better job than him, I have seen better technical players at my sons football and he is 12

26 Jul 2011 20:27:44
without davis and shagger where wud we be? steven whittaker most over rated player ever

26 Jul 2011 20:19:32
looks like mr whytes penny pinching is gonna cost him 15 million, sorry.. i thought u were a smart business man mr whyte?

26 Jul 2011 20:13:56
do you think whitty was pulling the wool over our eyes to try and get a contract then play like a d1ck at the start of the season

Remember how lovenkrands used to play out his skin when his contract was just was just about done, and if pishtaker is a 20 grand a week player davie macpherson was paulo maldini.

rangers are unlikely to sign david goodwillie as teams like blackburn are sniffing around and clearly they can offer a better salary. if we are to sign him then PLEASE mr whyte get a move on before we lose out. Ian Durrant on stv saying rangers are 'almost there' in terms of getting in bedoya over the next few days.

26 Jul 2011 19:19:17
To the idiot who says we prob fae fae the £6m for the 3 players u say we r after whyte gave ally £15m nae £7m but he could end up spending £5m-£8m more wit there wages

26 Jul 2011 18:43:45
5-4-1 2nite WTF? Its not barca its malmo, the clone of walter strikes again.

Possibly a 3-5-2, but most likely a 5-4-1

Wallace will play left mid, unless u have an insight into the tactics 4-4-2

Its 442

Its 4-4-2 r ya simple

26 Jul 2011 18:14:21
Breaking news from Ibrox

Super Ally has just left the the ground, leaving wee Durranty and McDowall to oversee an easy 3 nil win.

However do not worry, he is using his time wisely to chase up a few Dutch targets:

Verhoek - a winger from Den Haag
Verkcaoch - plays on the left
Varkohk - midfielder who likes playing wide
Verahoak - great crosser from the wing.

I know these guys have been mentioned on this site before, but I am sure we will get one of them

Nice one, get wesley verhoek signed up, guy looks fantastic,

"Ver" -y interesting NOT

26 Jul 2011 17:50:46
RANGERS FC CLOSING IN ON ADO DEN HAAG S WESLEY VERHOEK Dutch Eredivisie news

Reports from The Hague confirm that Scottish Premier League giants, Rangers FC, have tabled a bid to sign ADO den Haag s Wesley Verhoek. The 24-year-old has remained the subject of interest from a host of elite European clubs for quite some time after his exceptional performances for ADO in the 2010/11 season.

Verhoek is regarded as one of the best wingers playing in Dutch top tier. The highly-rated winger started his professional career in the 2004/05 season after spending years in ADO s youth academy.

The wide-man has so far played well over 150 games, scoring 25 goals and providing plenty of assists. The 24-year-old performed even more impressively in the season ended by scoring seven goals while providing 14 assists in 32 appearances. His good performances earned him interest from a host of elite European clubs, but the winger has so far denied moving away from Kyocera Stadion.

Nottingham Forest had earlier tabled a bid to acquire the winger s services in the ongoing summer transfer market but failed to reach an agreement with the club. Following the failed attempt at a transfer, the Gers also expressed their desire to add the winger to their ranks ahead of the new season.

Ally McCoist, the Gers head coach, is a great admirer of the Dutchman and has shown his interest by tabling a bid for the wide-man. According to close sources, the Gers have offered ADO in the region of £1 million to acquire the winger s signature.

Verhoek has an ongoing contract with ADO that is due to expire in the summer of 2012. Reports suggest that the ADO management is looking to prolong his stay by offering the winger an extension to his current contract in the coming days.

However, it remains to be seen whether the 24-year-old intends to stay in the Dutch top tier or will the offer from the Scottish giants prove too tempting for the highly-rated winger to turn down

Den Haag already turned down 2m euro gers offered £1m Whyte playing silly beggars again

26 Jul 2011 17:30:11
Please Mr Whyte, pay the £2mil that dundee united want, its a very fair price for the lad, looks look at fact, 20+ goals for dundee united last season, aged 22-23 also has 3 years left on his contract, think back to last week we quikly stumped the cash to get wallace of a fee of around £1.5mil, for a LB who was also in his last year of contract, plz do not lose out on goodwillie to yet another championship team,

He scored 17 goals last year pal that is not 20+ so do ur research please idiot

As if craig whyte reads this site to look at your grovelling

i dont see why we have bought david healy as he hasnt really been given a game. i would love to see healy get into the starting 11 and feel when he got his shooting boots on he would be unbeatable.

26 Jul 2011 16:46:38
does any1 know if there has been any progress with the romanians work permit?,
can he play tonight? {Ed047's Note - nothing I'm aware of and no he can't

Cheers. {Ed047's Note - don't worry, we've got Kirkie

I'd rather see darren cole play if i'm being honest. kirky hit his best form with st.mirren, he's not rangers class. {Ed047's Note - I was joking mate, honest. Weir & Bougie tonight I would think

I know, just i beleive, from what i saw of cole that he could do a better job than flatfoot. {Ed047's Note - Darren or Cheryl?

Darren obv, wouldn't you agree?

Cole is a right back

whats your predictions for tonights game i think we will win 3-0 what do you guys think?? {Ed047's Note - Please don't ask me. I said we'd beat Hearts 3-0

Haha ed even the best pundits get the scores wrong lol {Ed047's Note - you're referring to me as a 'best pundit'? I wish. The bookies love me mate. I predicted the Argies for the Copa America and that was just on Sunday morning!!!!

Lol ed well what do u think the score will be anyway then {Ed047's Note - Since you insist I will go for 2-0 (assuming the defence is better than it was against Hearts).

Surely the defence cant be any worse than it was against hearts ed big bougy didnt look like he wanted to play for us anymore tbh now i dont think it would be such a bad idea to get ecleast 3 or 4m for him and we could easily buy bartley for that price maybe even weiss with that although mancini says he is in his future plans so who knows {Ed019's Note - Think we missed big davie weir at the back. He has had un-deserved critisism lumped on him. Hes done a fantastic job and I dont think Broadfoot was upto the challenge of covering. As far as Bougherra goes, I wouldnt be too worried, he's a professional.

Yeah ed but bougherra just looked asiff he wasnt intrested against hearts and tbh i dont want players like him in the team if they arent going to try a leg for the team because his head is some where else {Ed047's Note - Wouldn't say that. I agree with Ed019, Bougie will have the same desire to win. My only concern is when he goes on his right wing jaunts and loses possession

I can understand what use are saying but in my opinion i just didnt see the desire and the hunger that the big man usually shows when he puts on that blue jersey thats all

26 Jul 2011 16:03:20
I was just sitting watching BBC1 today trying to ponder why Rangers are not happy in the transfer market..so after watching "Homes under the hammer" then " cash in the attic " and then"Bargain hunt" I decicded that the beeb were kinda letting us all down.Ive decided that they have started a campaign against Rangers not only have they insulted our beloved manager...they, ve buggered up the head of the new owner Its down to all these programmes he watches on the BBC that the reason for us struggling to get in players..his mum could only afford a telly that was stuck on BBC1lol you, ll all know where Im coming from now he, s a victimof the BBC propoganda machine..be canny wi him hes a poor sod..

26 Jul 2011 15:52:13
Wesley Verhoek this guy would rip the spl

26 Jul 2011 15:26:51
I see Miller has completed his move to Cardiff, lol, good luck playing in the wilderness.

26 Jul 2011 15:14:57
Awryt guys we made a bid for wesley verhoek 1m FINALLY but canny understand why we didn't just offer the 2m they want, in my opinion he worth 4m so just bid 2m rangers And its the same with goodwillie aswell he's defo worth 2m CMON ALLY GET THEM IN AND WE WILL WIN THE LEAGUE

WATP

26 Jul 2011 15:10:32
alright ed i think we should sign goodwillie but ally mcoist and whyte should sit him down and say to him they wont tolerate his s**t get straight to the point which a think ally will do then its a fresh start for goodwillie the boys got talent but he cant be the way he was at dundee united as a dont think he actully got a telling af dundee united but i hope he comes

26 Jul 2011 14:58:16
just watched a clip on wesley verhoek on youtube. left foot, right foot. crosses. dribbling. lets get him it would be a steal at a few million.

Is tonights game not on the telly? whats that all about? {Ed019's Note - it is on premier sports. so is the chelsea game. if you dont fancy forkin out you can download a flash to watch it online at google chrome.

Chelsea game not live on Premier, they are showing full coverage later on in the day i think. Alternative to google chrome is first row (google it and its the first link)

i dont think the new owners of our glorious Rangers realise just how big we are and even more importantly just how big we could be, , we tend to forget just 40 years ago we were taking on and beating the best teams in Europe, Barca Real, Bayern they all feared coming to Ibrox, , now through lack of investment we are running scared of losing to teams like Malmo, , all we need is substantial investment and we again could conquer Europe if not indeed the world, , we have the infrestructure all we need is the belief to invest the money, , SO COME ON MR.W AND YOUR CRONIES IF YOU REALLY ARE RANGERS SUPPORTERS GET THE CASH OUT AND SNAP UP THE FIRST TWO PIECES IN THE JIGSAW, , 4IAR GSTQ

We've never beaten Barca, or Real mate ever..............................4inarow

Conquer the worldGetting a bit ahead of yourself there pal, I'll be happy if we conquer the cl qualifiers and win the league, the world can wait for another few years i'd reckon

26 Jul 2011 13:54:34
Realistic rumour here:

McCoist sees his team finally beginning to take shape with a striker (goodwillie) winger (Verhoek) and 1 defender (bartley or Juhasz) with Cuellar still being considered as he ponders if he should sell Bougherra and midfeilder in (davidson)

It is known if he can take in 4 more players for less than £5million it will leave a SMALL amount of cash to spend in January if required.

Personally I think if we could get these signings and replace Bougherra with Cuellar and take bartley in we would then have a BRILLIANT squad.

Goalkeepers:
Allan MacGregor
Neil Alexander

Defenders:
Carlos Cuellar
Kyle Bartley
David Weir
Sasa Papac
Steven Whittaker
Kirk Broadfoot
Lee Wallace
Dorin Goian

Midfeilders:
Steven Davis
Maurice Edu
Lee McCulloch
Juan manuel ortiz
Jamie Ness
Thomas Kind Bendiksen
Steven Naismith
Kyle Hutton
John Fleck
Murray Davidson
Wesley Verhoek

Strikers:
Nikica Jelavic
David Goodwillie
Kyle Lafferty
James Beattie (we are trying to offload)
David Healy
Alejandro Bedoya (january arrival as we wont pay)

This is McCoists plan, and he beleives that if he can put together this squad for less than £5million in transfer fees than the Gers have a very good chance for the next few years.

Dont critise him for trying to balance our books at an early stage of managing rangers.

Obviously this team isnt quite assembled yet but it his plan and personally i back it fully.

In Ally we trust

Here was me thinking Bedoya was a midfielder, thank god I never posted a big spiel about the squad or I'd of made a right t*t of myself :-D

Bedoya's a midfielder, where is hemmings? where is wylde?

This guy that wrote this is a clown bedoya midfielder

You have left out half the team yah scrot haha and bedoya is a midfielder and naismith is a striker

26 Jul 2011 13:36:30
Starting to feel a little more positive now that we have made bids for 2 great young players (Goodwillie & Verhoek) albeit they havn t been accepted. Just hope Mr Whyte gets the finger out and realises that this isn t any normal business he is involved in and negotiating is scarce. Players have a value set by their clubs and if you don t meet it you don t get the player, its simple. So Mr Whyte open your wallet and get these two players in cause the mhob from the east end will be sh*tting themselves cause they will be nowhere near us come May.

TheDawnOfFiftyFive

One mistake that Mr White may have made is not to employ some of the gers fans on here as Director of Football. Are there not at least 2 more high profile potential transfers (Fabregas and Modric) ongoing where the buying clubs started with a low(er) offer and then have increased it several times. Now I don't know 100% for a fact but this would appear that there are times when the buying club do not know the valuation (perhaps as the club is not looking to sell) and therefore they need to go in with a bid, which they think is acceptable (but not their top offer). The quotes on price may be what a journalist considers to be the price without any verification from the club. Can't be 100% sure as I do not work as a club manager or in the game at all, unlike several others on this site.

26 Jul 2011 13:19:59
The problem as I see it isn't that the initial bids Rangers are making are low bids. The problem is that these bids are being made public. Every club in the world probably starts low and negotiates upwards. But, because Rangers are spectacularly failing at keeping their cards close to their chest, they have opened themselves up to ridicule.

To a point you are right, but the bids for some players are just totally embarrassing. Verhoek had an 8m euro deal agreed with Napoli two months ago that failed right at the final hurdle, ''two months ago, '' and we go in with 1m....that's embarrissing....big time

26 Jul 2011 12:53:34
I'm a rangers season ticket holder and a am raging today, we have tge opportunity to sign the best prospect in Scottish football David goodwillie and we are holding back , a proven rangers fan will play for the shirt and note important scores goals. I don't want any has been old person I don't care grow up now

We have spent money on Wallace who has achieved what papac plays his position and is much better everybody says it everybody thinks it cone on white the people who are paying for everything in the club ie us the fans want this boy no answer tha fans request

Jelavic and goodwillie up front this is the partnership

Over reaction to Goodwillie and how good he is.....3 assault charges and a rape charge while with dun utd, and you want him to come into the goldfish bowl, also, is he really as good as what's being made out.......4 premiership teams watching Jamie Murphy (big gers fan) on Saturday, no premiership teams in for Goody, us, cardiff and Blackpool, does that not tell you somethin'.......

Totally agree mate, why is goodwillies talent being utterly blown out of proportion, hes not as good as people claim, glasgows no place for someone with his past, hes a ned...simple, is anyone concerned about the new signing from palermo?very injury prone and has hardly kicked a ball in the last few years. {Ed019's Note - the new defender seems a bit clumsy. Ally has obviously seen something in him, so I for one will give him a chance. Hopefully not another Prodan.

26 Jul 2011 11:58:35
Should wee sell bougy 3-4million and retract the cuellar offer and try signing 2 other CBs with that money £5-6million could get a good experienced centre half and a young defender at that price and then about 50k a week wages between the 2 to play with ? Thoughts ?

26 Jul 2011 11:48:40
Alright ED how do you think we will do tonight?

Billyboy1 {Ed047's Note - PLEASE DON'T! Warning to all of you. I was asked on Friday and said with complete confidence, we'd beat Hearts 3-0

I dont think any of us expected as bad a first half performance as we got ED.

Billyboy1

Looking at the formation and player choice a poor performance in first half was a likely conclusion. ;-)

Hearts played WAY above themselves first half, I was more concerned about our poor finishing second half, Rangers 2v 0 Malmo, that is a prediction

26 Jul 2011 11:38:11
Good morning Ed0047, how are you this fine morning? You will be glad to know wont be posting for a few days going away with family, Mrs Timalloy banned me bringing laptop cant think why?
Anyway all this talk of people putting millions into old firm just that Talk, how many people believe these rumours? But my main point I gather Mr Whyte is still anxious to maximise earning regarding renaming of Ibrox latest I heard is that they are in talks with Disney Corporation as senior executives believe with Rangers being MICKEY MOUSE club it would fit right in with company ethos LOL Timalloy {Ed047's Note - absolutely Timmy my friend. Of coure your lot will remain on PLANET PLUTO. Anyway, enjoy your few days break (thought you were heading to Sweden next week?) We'll all miss you, won't we lads?

Enjoy haven timmy they £9.50 deals oot the paper are handy JMGERS

26 Jul 2011 11:03:08
dont worry if we get knocked out then we go into the europa league qualifiers then we can get more players in dazzzzzzzzaaaaaaaaaaa

Dont be stupid man, , the revenue generated by the europa league is peanuts by comparison to the champions league, , qualifing this time is next sesons budget so it is imperitive that we qualify.

26 Jul 2011 10:34:37
Super ally aint strong enough to be gers manager, I think he should step down if he luvs the club or we can just write this season off? {Ed047's Note - Unbelievable. I don't think I ever heard a comment like that about Lennon from the other side. SUPPORT THE MAN

What a stupid statement to make. Can you explain the foundation to this ridiculous statement? Give him time, and judge him after that and not before If you truly support the club you will support the gaffer

What a silly moron you are.Give Ally a chance

What a tosser what we need is for MR WHYTE to support MR McCoist in Ally we trust

The guy is allowed to have an opinion. I'm a big ally fan but the tactics of playing players out of position and also play McCulloch and Edu in same team worries me too

IN McCoist i trust. And Sir Walter played loads of players out of their natural position and look what he managed with the club..try supporting your team and manager instead of being a backstabbing idiot after only one game

26 Jul 2011 10:11:16
i think we should be looking for 4 more players. would like the american boy in just now, think we should just stump up the asking price for goodwillie. could get 3 times that after he has a few years under super ally, would also go in for murphy from motherwell give us a defence destroying attack. also need a defender with a bit of pace bartley would be ideal he has everything we could want and he can play. loan him just now dont think wenger will want to sell him.

You are having a laugh... There are only a very small handfull of players the Gers have ever made any money out of... It is not our strong point. Look at Kenny Millar. Selling the SPL top goal scorer for 400k? Great idea.
Goodwillie will not be one of them.

We've made great money on some players. Boumsong, Cuellar, Hutton, not so long ago Danny Wilson. Rangers and Celtic are stepping stones for players to head down south or to other better quality leagues. The old firm sign good players only for, especially the English, teams to snatch them for fractions of their value. If some of these players played down south to start with, you can bet their price would be a lot lot higher

26 Jul 2011 09:48:41
All this talk of Goodwillie signing, is he able to play in the Champions league after he played for Untd last week in the Europa ? {Ed047's Note - not until the group stage if we qualify

Please ed, tell me, when the F**k is the penny going to drop with Whyte, Smith and Rangers re: pricing players ???? They don't seem to grasp that Goodwillie is NOT for sale, but ANY bid should START at £ 2 million pounds I am sick of this, if they want the boy, and f**k me we need him, then they need to pay the ASKING price. I repeat, HE IS NOT FOR SALE so go in with a bid that Utd will consider, FFS.. come on Rangers

With a bit of luck this crap practice Rangers have a fantastic mastering of will change. It has been something that has pissed me off for years. {Ed047's Note - Was it not worse when we were spending £12m on Chelsea fringe players?

Is it just me or is cardiff city trying to do celtic a favour here by going for some of our main targets so far - CONWAY, MILLER, GOODWILLIE, i know they have a ex celtic player as their new manager and i would'nt put it passed celtic to be paying some part of the wages for those players so we did'nt get them just to f*** us up.

Don't talk utter drivel, why would the owners of Cardiff sanction moves for players, just to f**k up Rangers ? Just because the manager used to play for the swamp dwellers ? no I don't believe so, what age are you ???

You sound like a paranoid Septic fan mate. Behave.

A was thinking that myself mate there going for anybody were going for , its p***

A truly ridiculous notion but your entitled to your opinion I suppose.

baybear

I heard Malky MacKay told the board he would only take the job if they agreed to help Celtic out. The board said that was no problem as they were really pleased to have lost 2 of their most exciting prospects for f**kall. Paranoia I think

Get a grip idiots he is going for these oplayers coz they are good players get real

Hurting much Timothy?

Scottish sun tomorrow will report that David Goodwillie is set to clinch a move to Rangers . . Haven't read the story yet but i know that's the headline

Nope. They reported that we had a bid rejected and we're set to bid again. Will we bid £2m? i dont know but its strange we offered more for Lee Wallace.

Is Goodwillie as good as most of you are making out? Not having a go at him or anything, but once again, most of the interest is from championship clubs, not premier league....not 1 premier league club has been linked to him.....if we sign him, (i hope i'm wrong), but i think Goodwillie is a decent player, but that is it....decent not a world beater like most seem to think.

Liverpool have been linked with him

Liverpool bought Charlie Adam and Danny Wilson, nuff said there then

Adam was arguably one of the best CM's in the EPL last season and Wilson is a very very promising CB, both good buys.

Charlie adam? Shorlist for PFA footballer of the year? Voted by his fellow professionals yeh the majority of EPL players don't know what u r talking about..

When le guen played Adam he played him cm and he started unreal for us

Smith came in and pushed him out wide left, and was poor it's not the players fault he was not played properly

Also Harry rednapp kenny dalgliesh and sir Alex ferguson all publicly expressed an interest probably the 3 most experienced managers around

So don't talk rubbish back to ur own page
