Use our rumours form to send us rangers transfer rumours.


29 Dec 2017 20:23:05
I don't know why there are rumours regarding Warnock and Neilson becoming the new Manager, Murty was given the job with the understanding that if he was successful, he would extend his post past the end of the season. what's the poi t in letting Murty buy players in January only for another different manager to arrive 6 months later. Neil Warnock is a complete diddy that can't handle Mickey Mouse Clubs, We are looking to get back on our feet and it will take time? Murty will quietly go about his business working away at improving the team, step by step.

There is no magic wand, there is no bumper chequebook, there is no manager out there that can bring instant success to Rangers. Least of all, Neil Warnock. Nobody wants Billy Davies, who could actually do a job if given the opportunity but you lot are championing Warnock!



29 Dec 2017 21:18:23
I'd be more than a little annoyed if Rangers weren't at least thinking of potential new managers in the possible event of Murty not working out.



29 Dec 2017 21:43:31
I’d be very surprised if Murty gets to sign anyone in January on a permanent deal. I feel it will be only half season loans that we get so that if a new manager does come in during the summer then they’ll get to choose their own players. That would make sense to me anyway.



29 Dec 2017 21:56:53
I'd give B Davis the job he would get us close to celiac he's had success at every club he's worked ie promotions



29 Dec 2017 23:48:10
Is that the same Billy Davies who's been out of work for years? Oh please can we get him in asap? Absolute garbage.



30 Dec 2017 00:24:04
Spot on old china



30 Dec 2017 02:14:07
Hugh Jarse. . Billy Davies is garbage? . don't talk p. he is a great manager. For some reason he's now been described as having "bagage". who cares! He loves Rangers and has been very successful down south.



29 Dec 2017 19:56:48
Who's going to be murtys no.2?



29 Dec 2017 20:14:55
Chairman Dave King
Managing Director Stewart Robertson
Non-Executive Director Paul Murray
Non-Executive Director Alastair Johnston
Non-Executive Director John Bennett
Non-Executive Director Douglas Park
Non-Executive Director Graeme Park
Company Secretary James Blair
Pick one of this lot as its them that selling us down the clyde and its them that will **** up it as well



29 Dec 2017 20:37:59
Jimmy Nicholl. My source is inside Ibrox and confirmed this.



29 Dec 2017 22:01:18
Jimmy Nichol and B Davis would sort our team out and they two would cost next to nothing



29 Dec 2017 19:29:49
Ed if you don't mind mate could you run a josh windass poll, to gauge what our supporters on here genuinely think he's worth? What about a poll asking our supporters what's the least amount of transfer fee, rangers should accept from any club, wanting to buy josh windass? Cheers ED, would be much obliged!



{Ed033's Note - What are the possible voting options?

29 Dec 2017 20:18:27
1 tin off fosters



29 Dec 2017 21:10:48
Ed the voting options that what supporters think josh windass is worth as a possible transfer fee are
Between-500k-1million,1million-1.5million,1.5million-2million,
2million-2.5million,2.5million-3 million,3million-3.5million or over 3.5million! Cheers ED!



29 Dec 2017 21:17:30
Rangers want close to 1M. 800k offer and I believe he’s away



29 Dec 2017 21:52:32
If we sell anything less than 2 mill then i would rather keep him who u going to replace him with we need decent money to replace him



29 Dec 2017 22:14:31
When hearts and Motherwell were demanding £1M for their prized assets last summer with one year left then I think Windass is worth more to us especially seeing the dearth of attacking options at present, he has a contract and his stock is rising, it’s £2M minimum for me and any team that we want to purchase a replacement from will only up the price if we have sold Windass already so the replacement should be bought first.



29 Dec 2017 23:23:17
Would you swap Windass for Walker and some cash for another. I think the board and Murty would say Yes. I honestly believe 800k inc a sell on clause and he’s gone



29 Dec 2017 23:43:21
If we get £2m for Windass then Dembele really is worth £30m. Based upon what he has achieved and his form over the last 2 years we will do well to get £800k for him just like Celtic will do really well to get £20m for Dembele



29 Dec 2017 23:46:06
Sell for his release clause of £3-£3.5m
Or sell for minimum £1-£1.5m up front with add ons and sell on fee clauses. We can't lose out on any profit to be made on him because he has and still is improving at us.

Personally I'd keep him. If he is a first eleven player under Murty we shouldn't sell. Same for any starting player, unless it's an inflated offer. That will only make us weaker.

We then buy only players to improve our first eleven. We don't need any more squad players just those who improve the first eleven.



30 Dec 2017 00:25:23
Scotty how do you know this is this your opinion or what.



30 Dec 2017 00:41:24
I have a mate whose part of youth setup, however, this is 100% just my opinion on what offers will be initially and what the board see as being fit to trade with. I think Windass and Fod will be sold in Jan to reinvest in squad. Can also see us only bring in loans if we don’t sell.



30 Dec 2017 10:33:43
I would keep windass rather than accept the 800k if we are lucky to get that for him, I believe with a good coach and confidence he will turn into a solid player in our league. Just look across the road forrest and McGregor have come along way under rodgers



29 Dec 2017 19:29:07
Think there is a few people out of there heads on here 3.5 mil for Windass lol. 500k is the most we will get for him. we paid 75k for him. if i am not wrong, 3.5 mil the whole team ain't worth that with the garbage i have seen them play.



29 Dec 2017 22:11:42
I'd say 2million is fair saying how much money players go for down south and he is still young



30 Dec 2017 00:26:48
So desrfc the £500k they had rejected Is all we will get for him so why have we knocked it back.



29 Dec 2017 18:58:10
Ok Murty wants halliday back is his head up hi a?
13 games halliday has been at what are they called FK Gabala oh yeah
he has played 3 games out 0ff 13 never took on as a sub has not played at all the last 6 games, Is this how bad and skint we are
what a JOKE.



29 Dec 2017 19:39:40
Stadium: Gabala City Stadium 4.000 Seats



29 Dec 2017 19:42:25
Avergate attendance 1750



29 Dec 2017 19:48:56
Tbh we need cover i know its not fantastic but we need cover



29 Dec 2017 23:06:31
I would rather give a boy a chance than bring Halliday back. Waste of a jersey .



29 Dec 2017 18:23:51
My team for tomorrow if possible

Fod
Tav
Alves
Wilson
John
Windass
Holt
Jack
McCrorie
Candieas
Morelos

4-5-1

Need to stuff the midfield so they can’t play stop there midfield and there wingers they will collapse big time and press them high and stop Lego muncher stop him stop them

Hopefully a good new year ahead



29 Dec 2017 19:08:49
As far as i am concerned this is all a plan from King why else did we not get a experianced manager, Why would King buy 0ver 30% when he new he would have to pay 11 mil, He has left us skint either with his stupidity or he has a plan to get out as off right now we have no money we are taking back all the loan players that were not good enough 6 months ago give us break please



29 Dec 2017 22:24:23
I'd go
Fod
Cardoso Alves Wilson
Tav. John
Mcorie
Candidas. Holt. Windass
Moralos.
Team full of energy to press them lots of energy in midfield then solid throughout the middle of defence lots of body's to stop them playing through the middle. then we can be quick down the flanks on the break windass and candidas supporting moralos while john and tav over lap with mcorie and holt covering the left and right side of the pitch in front of back three i case they win ball back and try break on us.



29 Dec 2017 17:11:03
see that's a 200k and 500k been knocked back for windass clubs chancing there luck
The likes of windass tav fod morelos should all be going for a fee of 2 mill and upwards
Is not worth considering anything else as would cost us majority if this to replace them



29 Dec 2017 21:57:27
We are Rangers and shouldn't be selling 1st team players fir 500k. Anyone remember Barrie Mckay and Waghorn 500k each. What a joke! PC should never have got near our great club. Follow Follow and let's hope lady luck is on our side tomorrow.



30 Dec 2017 00:22:13
Chancing their luck because they know we've not got a been.



29 Dec 2017 16:51:02
Lego muncher to be booked first 17/ 2 or Lego muncher to be sent off anytime 11-1 - rangers to score first 11/ 4 - Ross mccrorie to score anytime 18/ 1 or Morelos to score anytime 10/ 3 - all good value bets I could see!



29 Dec 2017 17:10:49
Broon could pull a gun out and he not get booked.



29 Dec 2017 23:31:02
Brown has no space in his pockets for a gun.
McCrorie Holt Windass et al are all in there lol.



30 Dec 2017 00:23:58
"Broon could pull a gun out and still no get booked"

Rangers rumours surely this has to be voted the best comment of the year haha

Brilliant



29 Dec 2017 12:56:15
McCrorie signs new 4 1/ 2 yr contract extension .



29 Dec 2017 13:06:33
Fantastic news, he has probably been our best player this season and one who we can build a team around. Chuffed to bits with this he will only get better and better!



29 Dec 2017 13:54:52
Hope he sorts lego boy out early doors the mora.



30 Dec 2017 00:13:01
Get in man



30 Dec 2017 00:13:59
Yes both brothers have signed deals thru 2022, excellent and very positive news.



30 Dec 2017 11:04:00
Someone please enlighten me, why is broonie called Lego man?



29 Dec 2017 11:05:21
Need to pack the midfield tomorrow and press the Celtic defence and squeeze them into the middle of the pitch, they will try to go wide and if they do they will get plenty of joy down Declan John's side (I like him but he's not a good defender) .

Only problem with pressing is Kranjcar is likely to start as we have zero creativity in the middle and he will not have the legs to press. Bit of a headache. Hope Jack makes it because we need his engine in the middle where Celtic are strong.

Everything crossed bears.



29 Dec 2017 12:20:12
If we stop brown we stop them that's exactly what hearts did, never gave them two secs on the ball and took their chances, there defence apart from kt who i think is a great player is shaky, first and foremost we have to turn up and dig them though



29 Dec 2017 23:44:10
U been tellin us for years Brown is pish now its stop Brown at allcosts lol.
U cudnt make it up this page continues to be comedy gold. 😁😁😁



29 Dec 2017 10:33:37
Take the money if true and use it to get players in. one story in windass is wigan offer 200k a joke



29 Dec 2017 12:20:37
200K is that for a signed pair of boots lol



29 Dec 2017 10:26:36
Wat exactly do our scouting team do we've already missed out on the boy Lewis Morgan from St mirren.



30 Dec 2017 00:21:22
No we didn't we released him years ago and never wanted him back.



29 Dec 2017 10:07:32
I meant to add bring McCrorie on for Kranjcar when we are hopefully leading to shore the defence up.



30 Dec 2017 00:08:35
Niko start before McCrorie? You not been home since Christmas?



29 Dec 2017 10:06:20
I'd start Kranjcar tomorrow as he is the only player in our team with the natural ability and class to carve out chances. Take him off after an hour or so as he will get tired. We need to play five across the middle in a 3-5-2, i. e.
Foderingham; Alves, Wilson, Cardoso; Tavernier, Holt, Kranjcar, Jack, John; Morelos, Hardie
Yes, that old chestnut again, Hardie. Give him a start, he has nothing to lose and can score goals! If Jack is injured, then Candeias or Windass.



29 Dec 2017 11:17:21
Doiger, murty will start josh windass mate, guaranteed!



29 Dec 2017 12:21:53
We will get space so windass is a no brainer even candias, we have to get at there defence



29 Dec 2017 14:32:29
Mccrorie injured doiger? Doubt we'll play 3 at the back, or 2 upfront



30 Dec 2017 00:11:22
Good call, Hardie will press more than herrera.



29 Dec 2017 09:06:21
Being realistic to have any chance against them we need to set up as 4-1-4-1. Hate saying it but i'd be happy with a draw or a daylight robbery 1-0 win. The available squad is very limited so park the bus and hope for the best for me is the best we can hope for. If we take them on we will get humped. Sad but true.



29 Dec 2017 09:47:59
Not sure about the formation, I think playing two up top is the only way to start the game with a potential 4-3-1-2. But I totally agree, a draw or even 1-0 would be decent enough. End of the day, as long as they don't gain any more ground on us in the league then that's a positive.



29 Dec 2017 09:52:14
Or 352 with tav john wbs and mcrorie



29 Dec 2017 10:07:54
A draw would be decent enough? . Murty should be knighted and the players put in the hall of fame if we get a one nil win. We r rubbish. The team gets slated on here every week and noo we will settle for a draw away to them. get a grip.



30 Dec 2017 00:09:51
451 is the way to go. choke the life out the game, make it is horrible and try and nick something with any chance we get. that's the best hope. if we go narrow in the middle of the park there wingers will have a field day with 1v1s with our FBs



29 Dec 2017 00:33:01
What about michel loudrop see he is out in Qatar and come the end of the season his contract will have just 6months left on it. He has not done much in the last few years but I do remember he did a great job at Swansea and had them playing some good football and also remember him being quite a sort after manager at that time so not really sure what happened but him along side his brother could be possible no?



29 Dec 2017 08:47:17
What I'd give for the 2 brothers playing for us tomorrow, even at their ages! Lol



29 Dec 2017 09:48:51
I am actually surprised his name hasn't been mentioned more. He has Swansea playing some excellent stuff with limited resources for Premier League standards.



30 Dec 2017 00:05:53
He did not do a good job at swansea.



30 Dec 2017 00:12:52
I was thinking about Michael Laudrup a few months ago and curiosity led me to do a wee online search. Looks like he has some serious issues with his involvement with an agent friend. Apparently Laudrup would only sign players represented by this friend of his and the authorities are investigating both men at present. This is maybe why he hasn't been considered for some jobs in Europe over the past couple of years.



29 Dec 2017 00:07:20
Steven Caulker on a free anyone?



29 Dec 2017 07:31:28
Its russell martin from norwich city we're signing on loan i believe! Steven caulker will sign for celtic mate! Him and brenda have a good friendship and he's said before if caulker became available he'd be in for him!



29 Dec 2017 08:51:21
Caulker's a decent player. He had a spell on loan at Cardiff I believe. I think he would be a good signing. Martin is a steady Eddie type which is maybe what we need just now. Both players operating at a good level



29 Dec 2017 00:03:48
3-5-2 for sat, close down the space for their wingers cutting inside. Foderingham, tag, john, bates, valves, Wilson, mccrorie, jack or barjonas, Holt, windlass, Morelos.



29 Dec 2017 04:01:19
Been sating this for past 2 years now but won't happen.



29 Dec 2017 08:45:39
My team for Saturday at the piggery would be a 4-5-1
Fods
wilson alves bates cardoso

john holt mccrorie barjonas tav

morelos



29 Dec 2017 08:57:27
Aye, 3 centre backs and flood the midfield. That has to be the play



30 Dec 2017 00:02:24
What's this tag caper?
