at Hotel Du VIn GWR



03 Jun 2017 23:13:44
Hotel du vin hopefully we will be seeing loads more of that place in pictures over next few weeks



04 Jun 2017 12:37:16
Who disagreed with that and why?



02 Jun 2017 23:21:26
reading its 750k for dorrans, not bad price to be honest.



03 Jun 2017 19:54:53
If Dorrans does sign he must be taking a big pay cut so good on him that's the type of player we need desperate to pull on a blue jersey.



02 Jun 2017 23:17:39
Norwich reject our Graham Dorrans bid. Not happy with the instalments we would like to pay them in.



03 Jun 2017 07:32:38
maybe norwich should factor in the millions they made from sale of naisy to everton who they got from us for nothing when the wee troll 'walked away'

just saying



03 Jun 2017 07:42:46
Naismith went from Everton to Norwich



03 Jun 2017 07:51:12
What you on about it was norwich who got naisy from everton not other way around



03 Jun 2017 08:44:27
Norwich spent 8million on him from Everton



03 Jun 2017 09:32:04
cheers deano - my bad

too much vino collapso last night!



02 Jun 2017 22:08:49
Dorrans initial bid rejected by Norwich.



02 Jun 2017 21:40:26
Ryan Jack declaring he's been a Rangers fan since a child 👏🏻.



02 Jun 2017
New image uploaded to the
Rangers Player Sightings page entitled, Carlos Pena



02 Jun 2017 20:13:13
If we got another CB along with a decent RB with 2 strikers then we will b in great shape next season.



03 Jun 2017 09:23:20
I agree that we need another centre back but assuming that we secure the Mexican striker, Pena and Dorrans then I would be relaxed although I can understand why we would want cover at full back since apart from the young boys we only have Tav and Wallace both of whom will benefit from two solid centre backs and a midfield!



02 Jun 2017 19:05:04
Been thinking about these players we are getting and linked with we have already done a good bit of business and there is meant to be more on the way

and we have yet to get rid of any the players we don't want so I am thinking we have money for these players then anyone we sell if any will be added in for transfers near the end on the window or in January

People have said money will be kept to pay people off but what's the point in that if they have 2 years at x amount a week to pay them off wee need to give them the full wage for 2 years at once

What's the point in that we can send them out on loan get them in the window or keep them and pay them there wage for 2 year in case injurys is that not better than giving them there full money at once witch would cost 100s of thousands per player



02 Jun 2017 20:02:48
Jms123 I don't think they get the whole of there contract paid if they where to get paid off



{Ed039's Note - that depends if you come to a mutual agreement

03 Jun 2017 08:43:50
I players choice to go on loan or allow himself to be bought out remember Bobo Balde and the ex Arsenal guy who got £ 50,000 a week for two years and never kicked a ball



02 Jun 2017 18:27:08
Good to see the signings, but does anybody else think we need a decent right back.



02 Jun 2017 18:34:28
yes. Would love Paterson and Abella, sell Tav and Hodson. That would do nicely.



02 Jun 2017 19:07:15
Absolutely Jake. Cannot believe Pedro rates Tav as a RB. If he stays it should be as a right mid but given the midfielders we've got now or will be getting then maybe only as squad cover. Hope we're still interested in the Mexican guy, ABella.



02 Jun 2017 19:30:53
Keep tav excellent on the ball and powerful always gives his all, will be better again next season



02 Jun 2017 20:03:46
Paterson will be rb and if tav still there he'll be pushed up the park



02 Jun 2017 20:35:14
If we get abella in then tav is plenty good enough for his back up get rid of hodson and it's sorted no need to sign two right backs



02 Jun 2017 20:56:25
Paterson would be a great signing but at this stage in his recovery from an injury doubt if he would pass the medical. It could be a gamble worth taking and move Tav into midfield.



03 Jun 2017 19:24:08
Stick with tav



02 Jun 2017 16:09:14
My mates dad accidentally spat on a guy on west nile street in Glasgow. After apologizing he mentioned it was Graham Dorrins dad. Turns out he's looking at houses for his son. Looks like he's definitely coming.



{Ed039's Note - that's got to be the most bizarre one yet

02 Jun 2017 18:03:32
Haha brilliant. I never knew that if you grogged on someone that they'd tell you all their business 🤣 need to try that!



02 Jun 2017 18:07:10
So people that get spat on present their I. D. Directly afterward?



02 Jun 2017 18:23:55
Yeah i witnessed that, it was at the petrol station!



{Ed039's Note - petrol station on west Nile street, where is that

02 Jun 2017 18:34:49
Was sarcasm mate, as this is less likely than a petrol station story. rubbish patter, apologies haha!



02 Jun 2017 18:45:21
Was he out with an old phlegm at the time?



02 Jun 2017 19:19:46
Lmao! So you mean to tell us that this happened in real life or a wee dream?

"I'm sorry I spat on you! "

"Don't worry about it, I'm Graham Dorrans dad and I'm looking at houses for him. " 👍



02 Jun 2017 23:45:52
Can't buy this



02 Jun 2017 16:54:42
Have to say hats off to Big Pedro not wasting anytime and rebuilding the mess that has been left.

Bruno Alves . Ryan Jack . Carlos Pena. Now we are set to sign Dorrans and the mexican striker herrera. Possibility of the 3 Portuguese boys aswell.

Where is the money all of a sudden coming from? Or did King and co just not trust Warbs to spend money?



02 Jun 2017 18:58:59
Cjmacc. There was plenty rumours flying bout that DK didn't trust MW with money. Early indications would suggest this to be true. Iv questioned Dk's commitment but he is putting his money where his mouth is now. It's been a great week with these new signings and certainly a few more in the way.



02 Jun 2017 16:09:30
I am so looking forward to next season with the signings already done and being proposed. Just one niggle, as we are in Europe what is the ruling on fielding foreign nationals in the Europa cup? Not putting a dampener on things just asking 😲.



02 Jun 2017 17:22:27
do you even watch football? How many Brazilians, Argentinians, Africans etc etc etc are involved with teams competing in the Europa league every season and you are wondering about the possibility of rules stopping us from fielding a few Mexicans?



02 Jun 2017 18:08:07
The stipulation is that out of a squad of 25 4 have to be home grown at club and another 4 have to be home grown in Scotland. Home grown means being with us or another Scottish club between the ages of 15 and 21. If you don't have the required 8 players then you have to leave a blank spot for each missing one. Also players under 21 who have been at the club for 3 or more years don't need to be registered to play.



02 Jun 2017 18:29:01
How does that answer the question? Like it or not there are UEFA rules on home trained squad numbers, which I'm sure Pedro is aware of, my question is how many based on how many home grown players we are looking to offload



02 Jun 2017 18:59:05
Cheers parky for the info



02 Jun 2017 15:31:14
After we have paraded all our new players could we get a pic of all the men who dug deep to get these players in. for a team with no money it gota be individuals doing this.



02 Jun 2017 15:26:38
Rangers make bid for just under 1million. Source sky sports.



02 Jun 2017 16:27:38
A bid for who?



02 Jun 2017 19:03:18
Dorrens I think?



02 Jun 2017 14:22:31
I live not too far from aberdeen. keith and it's a horrible mix of sheep, stinky one's and the fantastic bears. Have had years of abuse from both sides. People are glad that aberdeen seem to be imploding but realistically for scottish football and our own case for taking the title back we also need other scottish teams to improve, take points off that lot. Maybe its just me though.



02 Jun 2017 14:59:35
We do need Scottish football overall to improve in order to help us take the title away from Celtic. It's always been what has separated Celtic and Rangers.



02 Jun 2017 15:41:53
Personally I would rather see Celtic implode!



02 Jun 2017 20:06:57
TOMUSA That's still to come



02 Jun 2017 13:24:42
STV reporting Pena arrived in Glasgow and is set to sign. If this deal goes through I must say I'm delighted with the first 3 signings made. Hopefully they continue the way they're going and we'll be a different animal next season. Onwards and upwards Bears.



02 Jun 2017 13:44:59
Agree, like the signings so far considering where we have come from. My biggest problem last year apart from generally being crap was the way we were bossed and shoved off the ball. Alves, Pena look like beasts who can put themselves about and I for one won't mind seeing someone in a blue jersey decking a few numpties ( you know who they are) and Jack is a solid grafter. Looking forward .



02 Jun 2017 14:00:19
Can confirm Pena arrived at Glasgow Airport earlier today



02 Jun 2017 13:10:11
cant understand how caixinha said when asked about if weiss was joining a couple weeks back he said we won't be paying that much for 1 player, but is supposed to be paying 2.5+ for pena



02 Jun 2017 14:31:44
Maybe he doesn't think Weiss is worth that whilst Pena is?
Let's not start doubting the gaffer, he's done well with the first 2.



02 Jun 2017 14:43:08
He was talking to the press and why would he highlight how much Rangers had to spend? As soon as you do that, other clubs knowing we have cash, will increase their fees. You can't negotiate by giving all of your financial info away. Take everything with a pinch of salt until it becomes reality and is announced by the club.



02 Jun 2017 14:46:26
not once said i was doubting mate. all my other posts have been about how good caixinha has done in the past few days with his signings.



02 Jun 2017 14:53:50
suppose alrus. but the way he was talking i thought we had no cash. exciting time the now for the mighty gers



02 Jun 2017 10:39:25
Does anyone else think Joe Garner looks like Joe Swash? :-D.



02 Jun 2017 11:11:11
Yes he does and there both unbearable to watch as well don't now what's worse garners football ability or swash trying to be funny!



02 Jun 2017 08:34:36
I can't believe how glued to this page and news now i am lol best transfer window in so long, such optimism and excitement, i can see this season being a belter



02 Jun 2017 09:21:50
100% agree, nice to see positive posts on here as well; instead of the usual slating of DK and the manager.

Pedro seems to be getting things done and hopefully he will have the team playing how he wants for European qualifiers and the league.



02 Jun 2017 09:23:09
Couple of signings already and the optimism for next season is rising already. I wouldn't mind Pena as well along with a decent striker.



02 Jun 2017 10:34:15
Defo yes, and i also like the way that if one target seems to be failing there is no hanging about and another alternative is lined up



02 Jun 2017 07:43:34
Premier League payment to clubs 2016-17
Club (UK live TV appearances in brackets

Total payment (£s)

First-Chelsea (28) 150,811,183

Last-Sunderland (10) 93,471,118

Total 2,398,515,773

Absolutely mental money down there!



02 Jun 2017 09:45:25
Would like to know where all this money is coming from?



02 Jun 2017 10:59:05
Yeah and this is what our Sky subscription cash is going towards. Keeping the English league rich while we survive on the scraps. It doesn't help when our negotiator is Neil Doncaster either mind.



02 Jun 2017 11:05:56
Advetising



02 Jun 2017 11:13:20
The bubble has to burst some time- although I have been saying that for at least 10 years. As long as people are prepared to pay ridiculous money to watch it on Sly Sports, it will continue.



02 Jun 2017 15:54:36
If enough people in scotland cancelled sky and Bt sports subscriptions the money available to Scottish football would soon increase.



02 Jun 2017 07:16:59
I suppose Pena can't be to far away I suppose, as he left Mexico 🇲🇽 yesterday .
He'll maybe get into Glasgow tonight or today! And maybe medical today today or tomorrow.

Unless he got lost in transit in Amsterdam lol 😂.



02 Jun 2017 09:22:02
Wouldn't be the first to lose a day or 2 in Amsterdam lol!
Onward and upward
