Rangers Banter Archive November 02 2020

Well first time Edmondson and Jones caught think club should make an example of them and no way should they ever play for the famous again. they could have seriously derailed our hopes of silverware, totally selfish actions trying to get their hole no doubt.

02 Nov 2020 23:51:51
I agree an example needs to be made, this season is too important to be jeopardised by breaking the clear rules. I already know of another bit part player who was photographed at a house party during the first lock down and before the Bolingoli thing. We were lucky this didn’t come out then so we can assume other might also be breaking the rules too. Let’s use this as a line in the sand to remind everyone how important it is they abide by the guidance in such an important year.

03 Nov 2020 05:44:28
Our club won't/ can't condone the very irresponsible behaviour of both jordan jones and george edmundson.
With the serious dangers of this C.V., there's no other way but to terminate their contracts, under the undoubtedly gross misconduct rule. Had been informed ages ago that jones always had a bad attitude problem and was a bad apple!

03 Nov 2020 06:34:24
SGL the may not have the grounds to sack them to be honest and I don’t think they should be sacked there has been a massive over reaction to this.

03 Nov 2020 06:40:14
No overreaction whatsoever IMO KJA9!
There's a worldwide C.V. going on and they both broke very serious rules and lost the trust of all their teammates and everyone connected to our great club! That's not an overreaction pal, that's fact and a very serious, selfish, health risky act by both jones and edmondson.

03 Nov 2020 07:38:56
Yeah just put up a similar Post there actually
Both very stupid and soo g it knowing there careers could be in jeopardy if caught and they still went ahead
Playing for Rangers is obviously not important enough for them especially being the bit part players since they arrived they should be keeping themselves fit and healthy and safe and be doing here all to try get into the team
But what do these two do decide to go partying and bring the bad press to the club at a time we’re doing so well
2 idiots in my opinion and deserve what comes to them.
If that means careers over then so be it
They done it solely to themselves and have no one to blame.

03 Nov 2020 08:20:47
Totally correct, huge overreaction.

03 Nov 2020 08:41:50
Absolutely not a huge overreaction. Had they not been caught by police and the club been informed these 2 would have walked into training centre risking everyone's health. If they had mixed with the entire squad then everyone would have had to isolate for 2 weeks which would then contest our fixtures domestically and we would have had to forfeit 2 europa league fixtures.

03 Nov 2020 08:46:35
Its not an overreaction. Why could we not have grounds to sack them. Its not as though the were going to be honest and tell the club that they would have to isolate because they broke the rules were they? If they hadn't have been caught their intention was to keep quiet and attend training which would or could have had unbelieveable consequences. Possibly thrown out of europe, momentum taken from our title charge, financial implications and of the human impact on potentially spreading the virus. Gross misconduct in my book. 👍.

03 Nov 2020 09:45:51
Is there worse than gross misconduct because if so then them two idiotic morons have earned it, can't believe some on hear think we are overreacting wake up and smell the coffee fellas, what we are talking about is life or death overeaction my a__e.

03 Nov 2020 10:31:21
Those who think this is an overreaction to these muppets are as stupid as them. C.V. has killed hundreds of thousands of people and is a deadly disease. What if these clowns hadn't been caught and came back to Ibrox with the squad and one of them had caught the disease? I wonder if they have the discipline or brains to self-isolate? Rangers have acted and didn't cover up, unlike the unwashed with Griffiths. I can't believe anyone posting on here could try and condone their actions.

03 Nov 2020 11:36:39
It’s 100% a over reaction and I would put my house on SGL that you have broken a C.V. rule as most people have and that’s the bottom line of the matter.

I forgot about everyone on here that they have never made a mistake in their life its embarrassing.

03 Nov 2020 12:07:50
We’ve awe been breaking the rules guys that’s definite. I have. However these players have a hell of a lot of responsibility on there shoulders and shouldn’t be breaking the rules. I wouldn’t sack them they’re worth money that is a bit over the top. But they wouldn’t play for me again if I was Gerrard or the board.

03 Nov 2020 13:12:29
My thoughts exactly IGWT.
I can't condone or condemn them because it would make me a hypocrite like everyone else on this site who wants them sacked.
I break the rules every week by visiting my parents indoors and having then at my house every week for dinner. As a family we took this decision ourselves and we've been OK.

03 Nov 2020 15:24:12
They could be made a very big example of indeed, Rangers may just take the hit, and sack both, gross misconduct is dismissal, waiting to see what has actually happened mind,

03 Nov 2020 15:52:29
Me and my wife have not broken any rules since March. We have observed all the social distancing rules and everything else. If you are posting on here that you have broken rules, you are part of the problem.

03 Nov 2020 16:29:25
So Doiger, hand on heart you only went for a walk once a day in the first lockdown?
Only visited the shops when required?
When you meet friends you stand 2m apart? You must take a tape measure everywhere with you!
I'm not calling you or others liars but I don't believe you. 👍.

03 Nov 2020 17:02:15
I think everybody has broken the rules to some degree, and I agree with above anybody who says they haven't is lying. We were locked down for months, going to the shop for beer ot a packet of fags etc was a rule break as not essential. No way folk haven't broke the rules, however there's was a massive and stupid break of the rules.

02 Nov 2020 20:43:47
Given that Jones and Edmondson are on the way out not sure sacking them is the way to go , if they are free agents they could get a signing on fee that the club could receive as a transfer fee, could be viewed as them profiting from their actions.

02 Nov 2020 21:04:07
Doubt we could sack them. It would be borderline but I think a good lawyer would make it difficult. Just take offers for them jan n make some money 👍.

02 Nov 2020 21:27:38
Can’t sack but could release from contract which would be expensive. Better they go out on loan in January in advance of transfer in summer. Good to see Jones excluded from Northern Ireland squad.

02 Nov 2020 21:59:10
Think this is jones last year, he may well be released, if it’s going to championship then that will prob be case. If he’s going to spell then we’ll prob be lumbered with most of his wages. I don’t see us letting Edmundson leave until Katic is back fit tbh. Too much a risk with balogun and Helander injury problems. Can’t see us spending money on a centre back when have 5 on books. I think Edmundson might survive this.

02 Nov 2020 22:14:22
I haven't forgotten that we spent a million quid on Edmundson. 1,000,000. We can't just tell him to piss off. Jones and George will be repremanded, then Jones will be banished and George will be second teamed until he learns better. What a bullet we have dodged with these two idiots. Absolute shambles the pair of them. Jones again has showed why Stevie doesn't play him. Wrong attitude and thinks he's the big I am. Red card, driving, now worst of all this. Not fit to wear the jersey. A mistake yes, but one too many.

02 Nov 2020 22:16:32
Why couldn't they be sacked? They didn't go to the party with intention of being honest about it to the club and self isolating for 14 days after it did they. This is very serious matter👍.

02 Nov 2020 22:40:39
i for one am very happy they got caught, imagine them not, they don't have any brains to be honest and thinking we have the team in jeopardy here. they would come into training today, put everyone in risk and force self isolation for god knows how many of the first team.

02 Nov 2020 23:28:45
Well here's what I know. In light of C.V. players contracts amended to include behaviour during current climes. To protect both club and players. Would have thought at very least players were culpable of serious breach of contract and could be released with no financial recompense to them whatsoever. Meaning no financial penalty to gers whatsoever. Can't say behaviour merits sacking. Just stupid boys, with money in pocket. Maybe leave it up to club regs and their reps.

03 Nov 2020 06:35:47
Coldo none of us actuallly know the legal side of this and I very much doubt they can be sacked for this.

03 Nov 2020 08:48:20
Why KJA9, other public figures have. What makes players or you and I any different? 👍.

03 Nov 2020 09:03:46
Which public figures have been sacked Coldo🤔
SNP minister still in office.
Boris's right hand man still in office.

03 Nov 2020 09:29:30
There's been a good few, particularly during the first lockdown. Its been news stories. Couldn't tell you names though👍.

03 Nov 2020 11:42:42
Loads of cases of other footballers, and more high profile ones getting away with the exact sa. e and not getting sacked coldo. Like I said, I think legally it would be hard to sack them as they could simply argue others have got away with worse. don't think a single footballer has been sacked for a breach of the rules mate, which says a lot.

03 Nov 2020 13:18:57
So you're just making stuff up to suit your argument Coldo🤔
That wouldn't be like you🤭😂😂😂
I'll help you out since you are embarrassing yourself. The only high profile person to fall on her sword was Scotland's Medical Advisor who had travelled to her second home in Fife and was then found to be lied about how many visits she'd taken.
Now considering she was responsible for setting the lockdown rules, it was quite right that she resigned.
But 2 footballers with brains in there feet? Different kettle if fish altogether. IMHO👍.

03 Nov 2020 15:26:35
Unbelievable how some people think, they can't be sacked " as an employer and trade unionist, I can assure you gross misconduct is usually followed by one outcome, that's not to say that will happen, but ruling it out and saying they " can't be sacked " is poppycock of the highest order, of course they can be sacked, how can they not be?

03 Nov 2020 15:51:30
Everyone knows they can be sacked, but they won't be.
Big difference giving some one the sack from an office or factory than 2 valuable assets such as footballers.
Morality left football years ago.

03 Nov 2020 16:12:27
Made up? You're a riot spudnut/ bluebell. The chief medical officer or whatever her title was would have been sacked if she hadn't resigned during the first lockdown👍.

03 Nov 2020 17:12:43
I'm a union rep at work tom thumb and breaking the law doesn't necessarily mean gross misconduct in work mate. Considering c. v wasnt about when both players signed, I doubt there will be anything specific in contracts regarding it. I think it was stupid of the 2, and I think they are done at rangers. However i don't think it's a sacking offence tbh.

03 Nov 2020 18:00:57
Herewego. What they did / intended to do could be deemed as gross negligence which is gross misconduct. It will obviously be down to how the club interpret it👍.

03 Nov 2020 19:42:38
I doubt they can be sacked. Unless they were issue amendments to their contract highlighting breach of C.V. rules constitute gross misconduct.
Employment layers would have a filled day.
What we have is a serious breach of trust with both off them. So move them on for whatever we can get.

03 Nov 2020 20:13:55
Yeah, but there's the catch coldo when you write could be deemed as. Could be isn't cut and dried, and there's very little cases to compare. Greenwood and foden, kept job. Bolingoli?, kept job. Aberdeen 8, kept jobs.

High ranking Gov officials still in office. Has a precedent been set of someone getting sacked for the same yet? How do we prove beyond doubt they intended to come to training? It's too grey.

04 Nov 2020 18:42:52
You're right herewego it is a grey area. We don't know. We are just giving our opinion. I just wouldn't write it off that's all I'm saying mate👍.

02 Nov 2020 19:32:30
NO Rangers player has tested positive for C.V..
THEY haven't left the country and failed to self isolate on their return and played against another club on their return.
THEY didn't go out to a pub in a group of 8 players and then return to training the next day to mix with the rest of their teammates.
THEY have been fined by the police.
THEY have been told to self isolate by Rangers who have taken swift decisive action to ensure the safety of the rest of their teammates.
THEY will be charged by the SFA.
Rangers WILL NOT pester the relevant footballing authorities to allow them to play / be part of the squad for upcoming crucial games.

02 Nov 2020 19:42:02
They shouldn't play for our club again👍.

02 Nov 2020 19:45:35
The Aberdeen 8 weren't at training next day it was a Sunday. The 2 tested positive on Mon morning and no training took place. It was wee nicola krankie who stepped in and said they won't play for two weeks.

02 Nov 2020 20:16:20
Bluebell, your post is suggesting they haven't done anything wrong, are you sticking up for them? Theve broke the rules which I'm sure Gerrard and co will be raging about. They deserved to be punished.

02 Nov 2020 20:57:20
Bluebel let’s not excuse their absolute stupidity. I couldn’t give a toss if Jones never pulls on a rangers jersey but he’s putting players in danger that I DO want to see pull on the jersey! Jones should know what’s at stake this season, he’s been utter gash for us and shouldn’t play for us again, absolute clown of a boy!

02 Nov 2020 21:21:35
The 8 Aberdeen players, Bolingoli, and these 2 idiots are ALL equally to blame, or as bad as each other. Everyone of them endangered all there teammates back room staff and players families aswell as the future season of Scottish football. Only one bit of misfortune away from the end of the season. I don’t buy the “aye but they done this so they’re worse” patter. They are all clowns. Equally.

02 Nov 2020 22:27:39
Endangered! 😂😂😂
Only 1 person under the age of 25 has died in Scotland with C.V. and they had underlying health issues.

02 Nov 2020 22:41:42
Disgraceful post BlueBell1972.

02 Nov 2020 23:06:27
I clicked agree by accident there, how are they not endangering people bluebell? And Ed, please don’t hold this post back. Are you an idiot bluebell? You sound like 1. Examples? Morelos has just moved his family over from Columbia, say they 2 passed C.V. around squad and Morelos went home gave it to his mother? Is that “😂😂😂” as u put it? Or what about jimmy bell? Elderly, overweight, certainly not under 25 and healthy. The playing squad have families, we don’t know there living circumstances or health issues. What about the kitchen staff and cleaners, tea ladies.? Go over to Celtic Danny mcgrain takes a lot to do with Celtic 1st team. Bolingoli endangered his health and if he took it home to wife? Aberdeen I’m not clued up on them but u get the picture? your making out I’ve made an overstatement in regards to C.V. being dangerous? Idiotic statement. To laugh at that mate is a bit laughable in itself. Kinda let urself down there mate.

02 Nov 2020 23:19:32
Embarrassing post bluebell. Another belter👍.

02 Nov 2020 23:27:46
Get a grip, too many throwing hysterical tantrums, it has been dealt with.

03 Nov 2020 08:12:27
The World according to BlueWouldDo! Remember guys, this is the man who slated Tav and Morelos and wanted them gone and nowhere near the team, but is willing to turn the other cheek when it comes to these 2 idiots who could have caused irreparable damage to what we have achieved so far this season. Wow! The man who would have hung, drawn, and quartered some for a dip in form is advocating support for 2 selfish, self-serving clowns who could have ruined everything!

03 Nov 2020 12:12:10
It hasn’t been dealt with blue would do it’s geeing investigated by the club and the sfa. They’re suspended on full pay, and getting paid for isolating in they’re houses. Naw bad punishment.

03 Nov 2020 13:20:24
The word you and everyone uses BMG is "could" but they haven't. 👍.

02 Nov 2020 18:59:17
Regarding Nisbet or shankland, For me Nisbet better alround player but would hope some of the younger players already at the club will be ready to step up soon, the Irish lad whose name escapes me been knocking in the goals lately, as for the C.V. 2 think there time with us is up, but to be honest it was heading that way for the pair of them anyway they have just brought it forward.

02 Nov 2020 19:40:15
Young Irish lad and the young boys we took from Blackpool and Ross County are all young strikers who must have a chance. Also I’ve not fully given up on Coombs Young although he needs to sign a contract soon.

02 Nov 2020 20:44:57
Young coombs has already left the club!

02 Nov 2020 21:07:48
No he's not island bear. Scored for b team last week 👍.

02 Nov 2020 21:16:48
Islandbeat, are you sure, thought he scored last week for the young team.

02 Nov 2020 23:17:49
Young-Coombes is still there he scored last week along with the Irish boy Chris mckee and another boy I read it on the rangers website and seen the pictures.

02 Nov 2020 17:49:51
A wee debate i was having with fellow bears at work today regarding both young scottish strikers lawrence shankland and kevin nisbet. The question being IF rangers had to sign one of these strikers, who would you prefer us to sign between the two 🤔It would be kevin nisbet for me all day long, as i rate him a better all round striker over shankland! Nisbet has made the step up to hibs from dunfermline with ease and has made the step up from leagues look seemless. Nisbet has impressed me lot at hibs and his clever movement is terrific as well as being a goalscorer! Nisbet has embraced the step up in leagues whereas i think shankland, has found it difficult. I think nisbet has the ability to go on to play at a much bigger club/ level than hibs 🤔U know we watched both nisbet and shankland on several occasions and i would hope in the future that we will sign nisbet, if as i expect,
he keeps doing the business for hibs 👍
Thoughts fellow bears 🤔.

02 Nov 2020 18:07:51
Kevin nisbet for me he looks far more the complete forward not just a penalty box striker I would even say when Defoe retires nisbet would be a good replacement for him and under Gerrard he would further devolp and also be a good striker for Scotland in the future.

02 Nov 2020 18:12:47
I heard we were looking at Nesbit around the time we were being linked with shankland. Looking at it now I’d say Nesbit is the better player, shanklands a good player aswell though, remember Nesbit’s playing in a better team In Hibs though and shanklands been injured. Both are good prospects. I’d take Nesbit though don’t think he’s at our level yet.

02 Nov 2020 20:10:05
I would take nisbett but don’t think either are good enough for our club.

02 Nov 2020 20:28:32
Both are very different types of players, Would depend on what SG thought we needed. Shankland is a penalty box player and would score more goals with the chances we create. Nesbit has a wee bit more to his game and can link up play better. If both were valued at the same price I think Nesbit can be developed better. Shankland is a big bluenose and would work his socks off to succeed.

02 Nov 2020 21:18:08
No thanks, neither for me. Not Rangers class. I retract what I said before about Shankland before anyone starts. We have the class now to win #55.

02 Nov 2020 22:21:27
How could nisbett further develop with us sitting in the stands every week.

02 Nov 2020 17:18:54
A lot of people mentioning the sack for the two idiots and for me it’s completely wrong because if it was anyone that is in the 1st 11 then you wouldn’t be mention the sack.
They have done something wrong they will be punished but I very much doubt they will be sacked.

I am more worried about Benfica on Thursday think we will be doing well to get a draw over there.

02 Nov 2020 17:55:03
Rubbish! There's plenty of us who do not differentiate, so that's just crap!

02 Nov 2020 18:12:00
Never mind sacking them, just hang them both and get it over with, in public in the middle of our pitch as a deterrent to the rest of the staff.

No mistakes ever allowed, no lessons to be learned, one error of judgment and be gone with you!

02 Nov 2020 18:27:58
Can't agree KJA9, kent barasic I would still be calling for the sack. Our club's standards do not exclude anyone. 👍.

02 Nov 2020 18:44:42
Easy to not have to differentiate when it's 2 squad players but if it was 2 important first team players?
A whole new ball game.
Anyway they've been punished by the club, will be punished by the SFA and in Jones case will never probably play for Rangers again.

02 Nov 2020 18:57:50
A lot of moral compasses pointing in all directions tonight! 🙄.

02 Nov 2020 19:09:44
Are you trying to play devil's advocate on here MPH, or are you just being a fud?
Again, are you condoning their actions? Do you think they should be given a 2nd chance?

02 Nov 2020 19:31:39
Premier league players greenwood foden didn't get suspended for too long.

02 Nov 2020 19:44:05
They don't play for our club 6counties. 👍.

02 Nov 2020 20:01:19
FUD?

I’m sure you’ll be taken seriously by all concerned following that intervention.

02 Nov 2020 20:08:22
That you curtain twitching DK?

02 Nov 2020 20:13:30
Are you still sore about me ripping you a new one DK19?
Calling someone a fud pales into insignificance when you try to justify cheap laughs aimed at those with disabilities! Remember that when you try, and fail, to get your wee digs in.

02 Nov 2020 20:17:13
BGMH

MPH is 100% correct in my opinion with what he is saying.


See all you people wanting the sacked can you lot honestly say you haven’t broken any rules since March?

If the answer to that is yes then you are a liar 🤥.

02 Nov 2020 20:41:43
That's poor KJA9! Me, or any other fan, breaking C.V. rules would not have any bearing on the club. Come on mate you're better than that.
Look, I don't have a problem with fans sticking up for players, but not with something as serious as this. This isn't Gazza getting drunk, McGregor pumping someone's wife, Alfie booting brown's baws, Goram wearing black armbands or everything else that's went on over the years we have all turned a blind eye to, this is a different ball game all together.

02 Nov 2020 21:12:04
Gazza knocked **** out his wife, and left her an awfa state and got welcomed back. My opinion is there time at rangers are done but worse has happened and players have been welcomed back.

02 Nov 2020 21:12:08
Snell 🤣🤣🤣.

02 Nov 2020 21:15:39
There's plenty of fans on here sticking to the rules KJA9, there's been plenty of posts on here to back that up. 👍.

02 Nov 2020 21:16:47
BMG, haha haha.

You’re entitled to an opinion but that’s about it.

02 Nov 2020 22:23:34
Must admit since 1st lockdown i have followed rules either. Esp the 5 mile travel nonsense was away walking up the glens often.

03 Nov 2020 06:39:21
Just because someone has said they have stuck to the rules religiously coldo doesn’t mean it actually happened.


I ain’t really sticking up for them and someone put a good point up about Gazza can’t remember fans wanting him sacked and he done a lot worse than those 2 but because how good Gazza was that was ok and that’s one of my main points that because they aren’t playing regular people just say sack them.

03 Nov 2020 09:23:33
I understand what you are saying KJA9, I get that. I read an article not long ago where a club down south, lower league club, they offered a contract to a player who was convicted of domestic abuse. There was the usual backlash on social media and pretty much within hours club sponsors were threatening to pull out of the club because they did not want their name associated as it would give the impression that they condoned that behaviour. Such as the world we now live in. The club decided to withdraw the contract offer to the player. Anyway, the point is that its different times to the gazza times. I'm not saying I agree or disagree I'm just pointing out its a different world nowadays and if gazza was playing for us today and he did what he did, chances are he would not have been welcomed back to the club. With social media and the way of the politically correct world, its not good business sense to have associations with such poor behaviour. 👍.

03 Nov 2020 15:04:43
Was there ever a time it was okay to better your wife coldo? Your talking about standards then saying your not saying u agree or disagree with that?

03 Nov 2020 16:15:18
Never been a time herewego. I meant the player not getting a second chance and the impact of social media on sponsors. 👍.

02 Nov 2020 16:14:42
"To be a Ranger is to sense the sacred trust of upholding all that such a name means in this shrine of football.

They must be true in their conception of what the Ibrox tradition seeks from them.

No true Ranger has ever failed in the tradition set him. "
Take note Jones and Edmundson👍.

02 Nov 2020 15:09:25
Did wee Jimmy not say its a red card for Scottish football if anyone else broke the rules?

02 Nov 2020 15:17:14
Who's wee Jimmy? Are you referring to our first minister, Nicola Sturgeon?

02 Nov 2020 15:45:56
Wee Jimmy Krankie🤡🤡🤡🤡.

02 Nov 2020 15:47:28
Yip sweep he sure did, hopefully not as the way this has happened it hasn’t really affected Scottish football. Could have but didn’t. Think it can be dealt with in way of fines to players and club. But that torn face wee b****** would love To but her sneb in and get involved.

02 Nov 2020 16:09:18
Aye stuck wee krankie!

02 Nov 2020 16:49:07
She is a Gers fan btw.

02 Nov 2020 16:57:20
Unbelievable, First it was posts referring to people who cannot say Celtic, now its people who cannot say Nicola Sturgeon ( Our First Minister) . You've got to laugh.

02 Nov 2020 17:22:43
Yep, NS and the rest of the Scottish Gov. Just can't wait to put kick us in the bolingolis. REALLY?
Wake up guys.

02 Nov 2020 17:55:41
I can say Nicola sturgeon the stuck. Caeltic too. I get your point regarding that type iof thing though when I first joined and you’re all that nervous way in case you get slaughtered for what you post, I was nervous and unsure to write Celtic or be a sheep and write them or that mob and all those things, just decided to be myself and write Celtic as I’m not bitter or bigoted etc., however I absolutely despise that wee jimmy crankie b@#*@#* and I always call it jimmy 😂 I turn the tv over when she’s on it. I cannot stand someone who only has there own interests at heart when there supposed to be running the country for the people . Wee jimmys being polite 👍🏻.

02 Nov 2020 15:05:46
Hopefully everyone will now understand why Gerrard has never trusted / been willing to give Jones a chance, the guys just a full of himself idiot. He’s never even done anything in a rangers shirt that’s made him worthy of the ‘support’ he seems to get. One cross against Legia Warsaw and one goal against Motherwell in a game we won 5-1, that’s all he’s ever done. Even Barker has scored more than him yet he gets routinely panned (kinda rightly so most of the time) and Jones is lauded as some kind of world beater (could this be something to do with him being Northen Irish and a self proclaimed Rangers fan 🤔, hmmm I wonder! ) The guy has regularly shown himself to be unprofessional, from getting himself sent of in the old firm, to his reckless driving convictions, to this and to his apparent poor attitude and work ethic in training. We are well on the way back to being a very professionally ran club once again that does things the right way (after the banter years) and we need all players (and all other employees) to show that kind of attitude as well. We don’t need someone who’s made more front page headlines in his time here than back page ones. The fact alone should make folk realise he isn’t the kind of person we need.
As for Edmundson, I’m surprised and disappointed in him. He’ll have to do a lot now to get back in the good books I’d reckon.

1978 I’m one who liked jj and normally shouted for him to get a chance. Think he’s a a very de ent player. And based on talent alone deserved a chance however, clearly he’s a clown so he can go ASAP. Als though mate my liking for him had absolute nothing to do with being from ulster or being a rangers fan. I couldn’t care if he’s from Timbuktu mate I just thought he looked a good player. Anyway, onwards we go.

Fair enough, although I stand by my point that I feel Jones does tend to get looked on differently by some of our fans due to nationality and his outspoken support of Rangers. To me I’ve never seen anything from him that makes me think he’s got the quality to be playing for us. I thought that before we signed him too but was willing to give him a go. Not seen anything from a football perspective to change my mind and seen lots from a personality perspective to back up what I thought. In terms of ability, to me he is on a similar level to what Michael O’Hallaron was. Lots of pace, little of anything else.

02 Nov 2020 18:02:14
Quite possibly you’re right mate. If he was good enough he’d be in ahead of the likes of barker, and you’re ojo’s and such. Gerrard knows and has seen more than u and me mate. The thought he looked a good squad player, not a starter. We’ll never know if he was good enough now as he’ll never play for rangers again.

Just read that our for. er defender Marius Zaliukas died on Saturday he was only 36.

02 Nov 2020 14:04:25
I was shocked there was no minute silence yesterday.

02 Nov 2020 13:40:37
Don't think Jones will play for our first team again. Stevie g didn't really rate him in the first place in my opinion. Similar to Murphy and docherty. Bad luck, but tough. In these times you need to be a bit smarter. Jones has let himself down again as has ed. Also heard that popcorn teeth has lost the dressing room. My mate says though, that it's not a rumour, it's true. I know we shouldn't trust a green and whitey, but by looking at lennons expressions the last few games, he looks like he's given up. the players are letting him down. Or he's letting them down. Tough.

I think we have everything sorted at Ibrox though. Problems seem to be resolved quickly and no leaks. We're getting better each year under Stevie and this year will be 55. Cool heads, take the pressure and never give up.

Is there a possibility of us being made to miss games? The Tims already starting about this. Where's the "club can't control players" patter now?

02 Nov 2020 12:55:18
They had a player break the C. V rules remember! Nothing happened then, Rangers have acted quickly and suspended both, more quickly than them may I add.

02 Nov 2020 13:01:49
Very unlikely c of ibrox. Jones and Edmundson not in contact with any of team.
My understanding is everyone had day off today to recharge for Thursday.

02 Nov 2020 13:03:59
The case with Bolingoli is different. He went away abroad and came back and mixed with all the other players. Our players went to a party last night and haven't mixed with any more of the players so we shouldn't need to miss any games.

02 Nov 2020 13:08:30
Is it true the police caught them and that's why it's came out?

02 Nov 2020 13:18:45
Griffiths had a party for his birthday and nothing happened to him.

02 Nov 2020 13:25:46
That’s a good point sweep. They weren’t forced to miss games for that wee toad 🐸.

02 Nov 2020 13:34:30
BMG that appears to be what happened, fined by police at a party.
Just as well, imagine they turned up at training, mixed with the squad, carnage.

02 Nov 2020 13:41:42
I think an above point is correct, players had today off so neither have mingled or integrated with any other members of the squad and as far as I'm aware the police issued advise handed out on the spot fines and dispersed the party so a suspension and self isolation away from the place is swift and decisive action by the club.

02 Nov 2020 13:43:51
Does anyone think these pair of dobbers would've held their hands up If they'd never got caught off the police? Not a chance! They would have strolled into training with not a care in the world and put everyone else at risk through their utter stupidity and arrogance.

02 Nov 2020 13:54:30
The club have acted swiftly unlike the Tim's who tried to blame everyone else.

02 Nov 2020 11:19:13
Team 1
McGregor
Tavernier
Goldson
Helander
Barisic
Davis
Arfield
Kamara
Kent
Hagi
Morelos

Team 2
McLaughlin
Patterson
Edmundson
Balogun
Bassey
Aribo
Jack
Zungu
Itten
Roofe
Defoe

That's two pretty strong teams. Surely there is enough strength in depth there to withstand injuries, tiredness or suspensions? I can't remember the last time Rangers had such a strong and deep pool of talented players.

02 Nov 2020 12:21:11
Doiger no Edmundson now.

02 Nov 2020 12:23:11
You will have to swap edmundson for Leon king.

02 Nov 2020 12:28:23
Defo best squad in a long time doiger, still feel we need bit more strength in the wide/ false #10 positions.

02 Nov 2020 13:44:49
Aribo is 100 times better than haji, he should definitely be in team 1.

02 Nov 2020 14:32:02
Ryan Jack, Doiger?

02 Nov 2020 09:52:55
Morning bears well another Monday another day of hearing all the excuses from Celtic fans about the refs and the best one I've heard today being that all the other teams in the league don't try against us. If that was the case how have Celtic won every domestic competition they've entered in the last 3 and bit years and the league the last nine? There's no talking to some of them. But it got me thinking apart from Bayer Leverkusen I can't think of many times we've been out played the last couple seasons and I can't think of any this campaign yeah we dropped points at livi and against Hibs but weren't outplayed in either of they games and should probably won both of them too. Teams can't seem to find a way that really pins us back and cause us to ship loads of goals or chances, I honestly think if we keep this meantality that 55 really will be coming. And when it does come my friends will be closure and oh so sweet.

02 Nov 2020 10:27:27
They were all complaining about the penalty’s we get conspiracy and so on Andrew Dallas is a blue nose all that stuff.
