Use our rumours form to send us rangers transfer rumours.


30 Aug 2020 20:07:54
Just for talks sake and am no saying this will happen in a million year. But say mccorrie goes on to have an amazing season and is Scottish player of the year. Do we need to honor deal and sell him to Aberdeen at same price as agreed or can we go back on it?



30 Aug 2020 20:22:06
Yes it will be agreed.



30 Aug 2020 20:36:47
Ban her yes we would honour deal.



30 Aug 2020 21:32:49
If we go back on it there’s a court case looming,



30 Aug 2020 21:35:59
We would and should honour the deal.



30 Aug 2020 21:55:36
He's gone no matter what, manager doesn't rate him.



30 Aug 2020 22:20:33
It wouldn't surprise me if Mcrorie went down south later on for a tidy profit. Good move for him, glad he's now getting first team regular football.



30 Aug 2020 22:37:25
Wouldn't surprise me if that happened Banxger, MOM today, he got fantastic reviews whilst at Portsmouth. Fantastic move for the lad. He will do well at Aberdeen and will end up making them a right few quid. Gerrard obviously thinks he's not good enough for Rangers but he thinks Tav is good enough. Oaft!



30 Aug 2020 23:13:02
We can't renegotiate at end of loan. The deal has been signed. Hopefully R. M at shagerdeen and J. M. at Hibs do enough to take points of popcorn teeth and help us win the league.



31 Aug 2020 00:28:49
Don’t think he’ll be at Aberdeen in a million year.



31 Aug 2020 03:11:36
Played rubbish at Portsmouth couldn't get a game at RB even tho their RB was out for most of the season. Couldn't get a game in midfield for them.

Let's actually just say this mccrorie is a good player but does he fit our system. No. Does he fit better for Aberdeen. Yes.



31 Aug 2020 07:37:22
Mccrorie was poor at Portsmouth.



31 Aug 2020 16:57:49
Agreed John, I watched him a few times on TV in their games, sadly, I wasn't impressed either, he seemed happy yesterday and more involved, which will be good for the lad.



31 Aug 2020 17:21:18
Re mccrorie irvger it was not to be, the boy loved our club but just fell short.
Folk goon now how he says he’s happy at Aberdeen and has moved on, quite right and sensible language.



30 Aug 2020 20:05:31
Oh mccrorie this n that. Its easy to stand out in a mediocre team. Not so easy to stand out when your inferior to the 3 players that are better than you in the pecking order. How many players have we seen drop to a lesser team n stand out? Give it a rest n focus on our own team n players.



30 Aug 2020 20:35:51
I'm convinced Mcrorie will do well at Aberdeen, regular football will increase his confidence. It's a great move for him.



30 Aug 2020 21:30:46
Kri55 Ryan Jack was a stand out player for Aberdeen a lot of people now think he should be our captain 🤷🏽‍♂️ Just saying.



31 Aug 2020 00:13:44
Another Charlie adam I think, couldn't quite make it at us, but will go on and have a great career.



31 Aug 2020 08:13:55
Highland bear yes you Re right but he has proven it at our club. He went from a smaller club up the way and has shown he can do it on a regular. Mcrorie however hasn't set the heather alight with rangers or on loan.
ImO his versatility has killed him. He has been used in a few diff positions so he hasn't been able to improve in the one position if you know what I mean?



31 Aug 2020 10:25:29
Yeah kri55 I see where you’re coming from but I don’t agree, I think all players should be versatile enough to play in more than one position, McCrorie had 3 different mangers that had him in 3 different positions I agree it’s not helped him as a Rangers player but the shear fact he can cover 3 positions DM, CB and RB to a very good standard and at 22 he’s still learning putting all those facts together for me he’s an invaluable player.



31 Aug 2020 12:17:53
I think, later in his career he should be versatille however, when he's relatively young n learning he should focus on one position. He obv had to move on for the sake of his career like he wasn't going to make the grade at rangers sadly n time will tell if he's found his level or not.



31 Aug 2020 13:33:09
Well mate despite the fact that he’s no longer our player I genuinely hope he goes on and smashes it, not against us obviously but he seems like a great lad wish him all the best and maybe one day he’ll come back and boss our midfield.



31 Aug 2020 14:12:24
Don't get me wrong i hope he does well n has as good a career as possible. He just wasn't good enough for rangers. Folk need to remember when he was in our team we didn't have the best of sides n squads, with the level of players in front of him at rangers now is a few levels above. But of course I wish him all the best.



31 Aug 2020 15:06:52
Kr55 u r right. most know I was a real fan off his, but he is not the answer. However I wish him a fantastic career which I’m sure will be at a very good English club in the future, he will win Scotland caps.
Also to those who say we sold him on the cheap, I agree however he appears to have a good sell on clause.
Also it was not about doing Aberdeen a turn, it was about being very fair to a lad who was with us for thirteen years.



30 Aug 2020 18:36:33
Aberdeen fans raving aboit mccrorie already saying best signing in years.



30 Aug 2020 19:42:54
He was absolutely outstanding, will be a steal for them at that price.



30 Aug 2020 19:43:13
Their best signing in recent years was Lewis Ferguson. By a distance.



30 Aug 2020 19:48:44
to be honest had a great game.



30 Aug 2020 19:52:15
Did you speak to them then?



30 Aug 2020 20:03:43
Derek McInnes comments on McCrorie “he’s a dream, absolute dream, a Rolls Royce of a boy, expect him to go to the top as a player” can’t believe we got him from Rangers at that price. Man if the match! Selling a 22 year old with that potential (if turns out to be true) would be a huge blunder.



30 Aug 2020 20:22:15
The majority of grafter players are been moved on, so we can indulge in tippy tappy sideway football. Don't forget those delightful backward passes.



30 Aug 2020 20:23:52
Everyone raving about Ferguson and mccrorie has went straight in and is a stand out player for them, unfortunately he was not a stand out for us and is not better than anyone we have in squad in that position either is Ferguson.



30 Aug 2020 20:38:06
The thumb where am from i know a good few aberdeen fans and seen them comment on there fb pages. a lot of the comments were saying he was there best signing in years yes. but aye i talked to them all 😂😂😂 hilarious some of the smarmy comments you get back from roasters on here.



30 Aug 2020 20:39:03
Mcrorie is a better player than Ferguson. I'm happy for the lad.



30 Aug 2020 20:57:03
The stuck don’t talk utter bs he is not better than ferguson and never will be.



30 Aug 2020 21:28:08
Disgraceful that rangers let mccrorie go for 350 thousand. Club sould be ashamed of themselves.



30 Aug 2020 21:36:15
Now now Paula, roaster? That’s your mixing with sheep too much,

The boys played one game for a new team,



31 Aug 2020 06:29:59
Again, Mcrorie is head and shoulders above Lewis Ferguson. 1st game man of the match. Well done Ross.



31 Aug 2020 07:35:13
I like McCrorie guys, but come on, it is one game. And who would he have deposed in our team/ squad?



31 Aug 2020 07:39:04
Stuck that’s his fourth game not first.



31 Aug 2020 07:59:27
What is written above regarding these two players is each persons opinion, no need to tell someone they're talking BS just because they differ from your opinion.



30 Aug 2020 18:36:17
Watched aberdeen v hibs there, big mcrorie stuck out like a sore thumb, can't believe we only got 350 grand for him. Will do brilliantly at aberdeen and good luck to the big man 👍.



30 Aug 2020 19:57:41
Should have been a straight loan deal with a view to bring him back next year with a full good year under his belt then we could decide if he’s good enough, and if not, then how much he’s worth. Aberdeen could potentially buy him for £350k and sell him for £3m in the same window terrible business on our part. And It goes to show that when someone puts a little faith in a player witch McInniss clearly has it can bring the best out in them.



30 Aug 2020 20:39:06
Highland remember the lad said he wanted to leave rangers, hope he sells fo 3 million as we have nice 20% sell on clause.



30 Aug 2020 21:22:59
John25, he asked to leave because he believed he would not get game time for us this season. If so Another season long loan made best sense for us. Most likely the sheep will capitalise in 18 months for £1.5m and we will indeed receive sell on fee. If we had loaned to English Championship Club his value would be upwards of £5m In 18months. Hate to say it but every way look at this it is a bad piece of business for us. Only McCrorie and the Sheep come out of this well. I assume the sheep are fully covering his wages this season.



30 Aug 2020 21:37:52
He wanted to leave as he never got a chance despite doing nothing wrong in late 2018, early 2019. Part of a managers job is to try to bring through youth and give them a chance and other youths something to aspire to. Gerrard doesn’t care about that one bit. Yes you have to be good enough, but Gerrard was a young player a bit LG club with a fanatical fan base too once. What is Davis or arfield or having doing that is so incredible?



30 Aug 2020 21:45:52
John I agree he did ask to leave for the sake of his career but why give them an opinion to buy it’s terrible business I really believe there’s a very good player there if he was told go out on loan to Aberdeen and showcase your ability and we’ll see where we stand at the end of the season I’m certain that he would have gone for that just like his brother is at Livingston. It just bothers me that we give up on our good young players so easily I feel we’re losing our identity I can only think of 5 Scottish players in our whole first team squad 🤷🏽‍♂️.



31 Aug 2020 16:23:58
I fact is he was not wanted at our club, plain and simple.



30 Aug 2020 18:35:12
Young McCrorie very good for Aberdeen today, looked every bit the player Ferguson is, i am a massive Gerrard fan, but I think he has made a mistake with this one.



30 Aug 2020 18:58:52
Been saying for 2 years that it’s Gerrard’s in’sand out’s that really concern me

Barker, Stewart, Jones, Sadiq, coulibally, Lafferty, ejaria, ojo, king, hastie. Edmundson (before youz start he has been there a year and barely hit double figures in terms of appearances)

Always liked mccrorie and he was excellent vs Celtic in December 2018. Murphy twice the player jones, Barker or Stewart is

Really does seem your face either fits with Gerrard or it doesn’t and the valuation of our players is absolutely shocking.



30 Aug 2020 19:54:14
You do have a good point gh.



30 Aug 2020 20:00:26
Nonsense gharrower, SG selects the players he believes can do best job for the club and last time I looked we sit top off the league with no goals conceded. Good times and poor Tim’s.



30 Aug 2020 20:22:33
Think all those signings were mark Allen signings GHarrower. Ross Wilson has been a much better DoF with far better signings.



30 Aug 2020 21:24:43
Bankie and sir Walter get a grip eh. We sit top of the table as we have played no one. That lot are poor but can have the same points as us if they win their games? Tell me what I have said that is wrong? Murphy is better than Jones, Stewart or Barker and sirwalter, get a grip. Gerrard, one of the best players ever took the job on the basis someone else could sign the players? Allen has been gone ages and mccrorie left 2 weeks ago as did Docherty and Murphy and yet all the dross are still there as are old men with legs give like Davis and airfield

Look, I LOVE the Rangers, in want Gerrard to succeed, but I won’t say everything is Rosie when it’s not. You lot are seriously easy pleased.



31 Aug 2020 07:50:44
The only one of those 3 that have recently left i have an issue with is Murphy as i feel he is better than most of what we have for that position. McCrorie and Docherty just weren't good enough, when SG came in he said RM had potential to be future captain so you have to wonder what changed? the boy went to portsmouth last season and didn't do anything down there that made me go we must get him in our squad next season.

let's look at the 3 positions he could have played:

RB - never getting in ahead of Tav and Patterson is better imo.
CB - Goldson, Balogun, Helander, Katic (when fit) . he maybe gets ahead of Edmundson but even at that he would be 5th choice.
CM - Jack, Kamara, Davis, Arfield. lots of debate on this one but he certainly doesn't get in ahead of RJ or GK and imo i would much rather have davis and arfield as options going into big games than McCrorie.

I hope the lad does really well and makes a good career for himself but he wasn't going to get near our team, not because SG wouldn't give him a chance but because he was way down in the pecking order for all positions he could have played.



30 Aug 2020 18:34:13
Ross McCrorie man of the match v Hubs today why oh why couldn't he get a game for us then to make matters worse we loan him to the sheep and they don't have to pay any transfer fee for a year. They wouldn't give us the steam off their tea yet we give our young playets away. Raging and feel this one will come back to haunt us.



30 Aug 2020 20:43:50
Ar9, yes it's a great bit of business for Rangers, well done Gerrard and the board.



30 Aug 2020 18:34:05
I just watched Hibs vs Aberdeen, and it was a very good game. It had pace, energy and good movement from both teams which never let up for the 90+ minutes. What was good to see also was the shooting from distance, no trying to walk it in, I would like to see us maintaining the pace a lot more instead of the walking pace and backward passing of yesterday. I know we're playing well enough just now, but we need to be getting more shots on target.



30 Aug 2020 19:33:52
It’s no really hard to understand. All I have seen is people moan about letting Murphy go or mccrorie. Yes he had a decent game today but the guy that manages our team who sees him every day in training deemed him surplus to requirements. If they were good enough they would play. Obviously barker doing something right in training to get a start even though I’m not a fan. But the manager sees him
At training. I don’t. No one questioned the hastie decision. Why. Because he wasn’t going to cut it. Everybody wanted rid of the deadwood around the club. The manager clears the decks and still gets a hard time. Think we should trust in the manager a bit more.



30 Aug 2020 21:47:44
That the same guy that sees jones, Barker and Stewart everyday?

Get a grip eh. And before you start your DOF signed them and not Gerrard, he took the job on the terms offered!



30 Aug 2020 21:56:16
The manager signed hastie in the first place!



30 Aug 2020 18:32:24
Mccrorie excellent game today.



30 Aug 2020 18:25:11
Watched with interest Ross McCrorie in action for sheep against Hibs today. He sauntered thru match with ease Still believe we made mistake letting him go.



30 Aug 2020 19:15:33
McCrory not as good as Jack kamara even Davis so if he's not good enough for us right thing was to let him go out of respect for his service to the club.



30 Aug 2020 19:30:29
OneWaltersmith, don’t agree and that is why SG said McCrorie was a future Rangers Club Captain. Anyway he is not our player now and I wish him well.



30 Aug 2020 19:42:04
It wasnt us that made big mistake with big Ross it is Gerrards 1 of many blunders i'm telling yous were no wining this league way him as manager people.



30 Aug 2020 19:44:38
OneWalterSmith

Can’t agree with that especially Davis who has at most got 1 season left. McCrorie given a run of games would have done us a turn and could have been an excellent player for us. As someone says his face clearly didn’t fit with Gerrard.



30 Aug 2020 20:15:43
It’s very difficult to compare him to our other midfielders cause he’s not had a chance to prove himself, like someone said Gerard said he was a future captain and we all thought finally we’ve produced another fergie! So where did it go wrong? I think we’ll regret how this kid was aloud to leave so cheaply. if he goes on to be one of the top spl players this season it’s just more questions for Gerrard especially if the midfielder he eventually brings in flops.



30 Aug 2020 22:31:41
Lots of blunders unfortunately.



30 Aug 2020 18:22:23
Right so are we going to sign Lewis Ferguson before its too late He is one of us.



30 Aug 2020 18:43:19
Kazmania82, it's a no from me, I watched him today, and, I felt McCrorie did better than him, he is going to do well for Aberdeen, Jamie Murphy came on for Hibs but didn't do too much.



30 Aug 2020 20:23:25
No, not any better than what we have and would like to see Kelly or Barjonas get a chance.



30 Aug 2020 18:21:49
Assume Morelos not selected for Colombia squad for international fixtures this week against Chile and Bolivia. Don't recall reading anything.



30 Aug 2020 18:47:39
Thought these games were October.



30 Aug 2020 19:19:03
John25, believe you are correct. Squad will be announced in a couple of weeks and would think unlikely he will be included unless significant developments at Ibrox. He loves the accolade of representing his country and will be major blow for him if overlooked.



30 Aug 2020 20:17:25
Doesn’t deserve to represent his country at this moment, that’s what happens when you spit the dummy out!



30 Aug 2020 20:53:23
Deano, agree but we want a positive outcome here which is his exit for £20m and playing for his country would provide a shop window. If still on our books in 2 weeks time and his attitude is good and training well, would give him some game time ahead of transfer window close.



30 Aug 2020 14:58:38
I wonder if Lille bods read this board to see what fans think of Alfie no wonder he's still here -oh and the jury is still out on clive boy--tries hard BUT and its a big BUT -and wee hagi for me is a bench warmer atm cheers all.



30 Aug 2020 15:48:41
So its our fault that lille chucked it🤔👍.



30 Aug 2020 15:51:50
Confirming the Lille bods do read this board and would like Coops/ SGL to return.



30 Aug 2020 16:15:08
Bankie😂😂😂.



30 Aug 2020 16:38:30
It's nobody's fault he's pants.



30 Aug 2020 16:49:49
Yes its all our fault coldo mainly yours --;)



30 Aug 2020 16:52:40
Bankie😂😂.



30 Aug 2020 17:05:25
He was on fire after the last time I chinned him about his attitude decee🤷‍♂️👍.



30 Aug 2020 18:25:28
You sound like the type of guy who wears pants on the top of his head BlueWouldDo! 😳👀.



30 Aug 2020 20:14:09
Nice one.



30 Aug 2020 13:35:05
1st. half was ok still missing too many chances.
2nd. Half Hamilton changed shape, we had No Answer so that's worrying from the Coaching side, some players that are getting there chance with a run in the Team are simple not up to the job. Happy with the Results, Not with the Performances.



30 Aug 2020 13:43:04
I think they simply cruising through the game and couldn’t find a rhythm or shape and should have had barker off earlier.



30 Aug 2020 14:45:18
Itten or a fit interested fredo would have buried the balls barasic found roofe with. I would like to see us go for the throat against teams after an early lead, 2nd half was a bit pedestrian. Good win though. 👍.



30 Aug 2020 14:48:21
So are you suggesting Gerrard should of made substitutions or his formation a little earlier? Or is he nieve or stubborn with his decisions?



30 Aug 2020 15:29:26
I'm surprised some aren't blaming the legend that is Walter Smith for yesterdays second half display considering on another thread some on here had him picking the team and tactics after he was spotted at the training ground! 😜.



30 Aug 2020 15:56:31
Nah bluebell. Smith would have played 442 and won the title last year😉👍.



30 Aug 2020 16:41:04
Dull to watch, yes it's a win but more goals would be nice with better rhythm.



30 Aug 2020 17:27:23
If you want rhythm BlueWouldDo, you should buy yourself a drum! 😜😂.



Nicolas Pepe

30 Aug 2020 13:03:42
{Ed's Note - Ed001 has posted a new player profile about, Nicolas Pepe



30 Aug 2020 12:02:56
Agree with punting Alfie, brilliant striker but attitude stinks. Like at my work there is people good at their jobs but as people they are w**kkers. We don't get on which affects the whole team spirit.



30 Aug 2020 13:31:20
Brilliant strikers usually covert in big games including against your rivals, well that's been three years now and nothing. People keep going on about Europe but look at the bigger picture, he bottles big domestic games. Either is sent off or misses sitters. Not good enough, weak mentality.



30 Aug 2020 13:37:00
Not to mention the appalling attitude, you can see why most want rid, hasn't done anywhere near enough to be throwing tantrums when getting subbed or left out.



30 Aug 2020 13:53:41
BluewouldDo How many goals did Boyd get against celtic? In how many games?



30 Aug 2020 14:51:18
Boyd rarely started against Celtic for rangers.



30 Aug 2020 15:29:27
Bgate Boyd started plenty of games against Celtic and he scored one goal in a game that didn’t matter as league was already won by them



30 Aug 2020 15:31:00
Haters are going to hate!
Still going on about Morelos and he hasn't even played the last couple of games! 😂😂👀.



30 Aug 2020 16:28:46
What’s Boyd got to do with anything anyway. He was often sacrificed against Celtic for extra midfield man.



30 Aug 2020 17:20:09
Kja9 a game that didn't matter against the unwashed! There is no such thing!



31 Aug 2020 06:56:46
I'm making the point that the great Boyd only scored against them once! And he started plenty of them! Morelos has scored against bigger clubs than them in Europe, making the attempt by some to make him sound like a bottler void.



30 Aug 2020 11:44:42
As a team we definitely play better without Morelos. Everyone looks motivated and playing for the team and each other. Very good start to campaign, top of league, undefeated and no goals conceded. Things can only get better.



30 Aug 2020 12:51:11
Morelos played in the games at the start of the season that counts towards this unbeaten run? And stronger teams!



30 Aug 2020 15:30:14
Silly statement bankie has fredo not played games this season And we haven’t been playing that well but have been strolling thru games.



30 Aug 2020 11:29:53
Happy with result I agree with a lot of the posts regarding Tav I want him to be there when we reach 55 although watching him game after game the amount of time he loses possession is unreal, second half a complete bore I am more annoyed that I put Roofe to score with his head £20 6/ 1 he hits bar lol
What I don’t get and I am not a fan of stewart but giving the boy 3 mins is very very poor in my eyes!
On to the next match 🐻 🔴⚪️🔵.



30 Aug 2020 11:40:32
Tav had decent shift yesterday. Goldson had a few shaky moments.



30 Aug 2020 11:40:38
Roofe passed up a few chances with his head but I think he will definitely get a few with the napper. He looks very rusty but I have no doubts he will be very good going forward 👌🏻.



30 Aug 2020 11:46:46
Roofe did miss a sitter and should also have got on end of cross from Barker. Looks good though and will improve sharpness with games.



30 Aug 2020 15:30:57
More annoyed because you lost money lol.



30 Aug 2020 11:25:17
Watching the game yesterday and the one thing that sort d out for me was Helander. I thought he was fantastic . Doesn't have the pace but his positional sense and awareness around him was brilliant . With more game time he will only get better. You don't become a Swedish international if your a bad player.



30 Aug 2020 11:32:22
Big fil is a very steady performer.



30 Aug 2020 11:43:19
I think yesterday was his 15th clean sheet in 23 games? There or there abouts. Maybe Leona will correct me and tell us.



30 Aug 2020 12:33:15
Helander reminds me of a left footed Davie Weir. he's a long way to go to reach big Davies standards but the way he reads the game is class. The big man looks like he's towing a caravan when he starts to run but he makes up for it in different ways.



30 Aug 2020 12:42:57
MOCBear I said to my mate that he could be the new sasa papac.



30 Aug 2020 10:01:58
Same old greeting faced posters moaning about their same perceived issues even after another win and clean sheet.
We played one up front ( 👍👍👀👍👍👀 ) and won again, not for the first time this season. It's obviously horses and personal for courses.
Another clean sheet for the defence that includes the much vilified at times on here Tav, Goldson and Helander. And who can forget the abuse Barisic took on here in his first 6 months in a Rangers top?
We blew Hamilton away in the opening 20 minutes. The first goal coming from a wonderful pinpoint ball from Goldson to Barisic, who's brilliant cross into the box caused chaos allowing Hagi to tap home.
The second a brilliant cut inside and powerful shot from Kent which the keeper spilled allowing Tav to tap home.
Yes we should / could have scored more.
But I'm happy with the 3 points and clean sheet.
Time for the doubters to dry their eyes for a couple of weeks.



30 Aug 2020 10:32:51
Totaly agree with you BlueBell. I don't know what's wrong with some so-called fans. As I said in an earlier post, last season the result might have ended up 2-2. Our next home game on 12th September is against Dundee United, a chance to further extend our clean sheet record. Come on Bears, stop whingeing and get behind the Famous.

Bluebell, too much sense in there for many on here I think. Well said sir.



30 Aug 2020 10:59:44
Have I missed something I thought we won yesterday.



30 Aug 2020 11:30:19
Well done Bluebell, totally agree. I actually feel some folk don’t know what to do other than to moan. Never mind glass half empty, theirs have been poured down the sink then smashed on the floor.



30 Aug 2020 11:49:12
Never a true word spoken bluebell. 32 more of they performance and results and we have #55 🇬🇧 Think some expect Laudrup n Gaza’s to be playing for rangers those days are long gone. It’s now buy young potential and try to educate them and train them up to a level where get a season or 2 of quality before selling them on. Sometimes the performance from them. I. e Hagi at times, even Roofe so far but is a bit harsh on him. Last year Aribo, Kamara, Kent at times Katic the season before it was borna. Sometimes it won’t work out I. e barker grezda Jones maybe even the loans of ojo and the other big guy fae l’pool the year before. Some will have bad patches before coming good and being moved on for £££ 👍🏻 Some won’t work out. That’s the reality of rangers in 2020 and onwards ❤️🤍💙.



30 Aug 2020 12:02:24
Looking at some of the posts yesterday I thought we'd been beaten!
Good posts lads!



30 Aug 2020 12:18:53
Twacoos you would think we lost going by some? Any, well said bluebell.



30 Aug 2020 18:34:39
Bluebell, I totally disagree with you and tend to agree with Gerrard. We were always comfortable with a win but with 70 % possession and Hamilton not at there best we should of increased our goal difference. It may make a difference at the end of the season. Celtic have scored 10 in 4 games, we have scored 11 in 6 games.



30 Aug 2020 09:50:18
i see the daily rebel with a story that ronnie simpsons medal sold for two grand at auction, no mention of slim jims medal going for 5 grand, what selective and unbiased reporting, not an impartial tabloid that mob, no shame.



30 Aug 2020 11:48:03
I rather liked the article with Willie Miller claiming that Hatem Abd Elhamed was "away with the fairies" the other night.

100% true.



30 Aug 2020 09:02:41
Just reading through the posts from the game yesterday and a few folk saying they would rather Murphy stayed.
He’s literally not kicked a ball in 18months yet are gutted he’s left! I agree Barker may not be the answer but neither is Murphy!
I seen the same arguments when McCrorie was let go and when Docherty left. These boys are not contributing to the first team, they have had chances and failed to make it. I’m glad to see the back of players who take wages but have no first team input.
SG was arguably the best midfielder of his generation, if he says McCrorie, Docherty and Murphy are not good enough then I’ll trust him.



30 Aug 2020 09:12:26
Good post Blackthorn, and I say that as a big fan of both McCrorie and Docherty.



30 Aug 2020 09:22:50
Yes it maybe hypothetical, do you not think he would have converted at least one of BB's chances? He's actually quite good against a packed defence also.



30 Aug 2020 09:30:34
Agreed. Should leave it to the people that see them everyday in training. Let them judge.



30 Aug 2020 11:37:24
It does seem strange how some ‘fans’ seem to continually slate the players that are in the team, winning games, sitting top of the league and not having conceded a goal, yet go on about players that are leaving us, having contributed very little if anything over the last 2 seasons as if they are world beaters that should be playing every week. (No doubt these same folk would be the first to have a go if Gerrard was to play these players and they were to have a bad game) .



30 Aug 2020 11:55:40
Quite disappointed to lose doc and Ross felt we could’ve loaned them another year get the loan club to pay wages and extend there deal by a year every time they go out on loan that way it’s money in bank from transfer or the player comes good. I think both would’ve came good even just as squad players. I feel we’re 1 or 2 light in the middle anyway only real have jack Kamara and Davis I’m not I clung Aribo as he seems to be a bit more advanced this season and will replace barker or Hagi. We should’ve kept doc loaned out Ross and brought in a starter to improve the 11.



30 Aug 2020 13:30:36
Another 3pts against Hamilton and still unbeaten and no goals conceded in the league which are all positives.
Hopefully Wilson is looking at bringing in another striker if Morelos leaves the club, and another LW forward to cover for Kent, and maybe an attacking midfielder which should complete the squad.



30 Aug 2020 06:57:24
How many times did Tav try to cross the ball but ended up kicking the ball out of play or gave away possession ? We can be so much better . A replacement is needed to improve our team.



30 Aug 2020 08:07:19
It’s obvious to most that Tav is not up to scratch, poor crosser of the ball, and a liability in defence at times, and not a club captain. To win the league we need to be addressing these issues. Also need a quality right winger and tough creative goal scoring midfielder. If Morelos goes we are light up front too. I think financially we are not in a position to address these issues, unless we sell El Huffalo.



30 Aug 2020 08:50:15
If we sell morelos we have 3 strikers plus stewart. wouldn't say we were light.



30 Aug 2020 08:54:48
Did a watch a different game yestarday am sure tav got the second goal and our defense didn't have a lot to do why does he always get slated he's part of the 4 man defense who just broke a record from 1906 for clean sheets it's not the 90s anymore were your full backs just defend all game its about getting involved in attacks getting up and down the line.



30 Aug 2020 08:59:43
Striking department covered, give the new boys a chance to settle in. Anyone heard of any interest we have in Jack Wiltshire?



30 Aug 2020 09:33:46
All the balls that were put into the box yesterday and no one able to attack it. Crying out for a TM. Still trying to walk it in. Their keeper could have done much better at our goals. 👍.



30 Aug 2020 09:42:43
coldo you sound disappointed their goalie did not save our two goals, your posts baffle me, they make me more right in my view you are a mhank supporter.



30 Aug 2020 09:52:30
The old tim card when you have nothing else constructive trueblue. Its an honest assessement, I reckon itten would have got a couple yesterday off barasic👍.



30 Aug 2020 10:12:15
nothing to do with the old tim card coldo you walk yourself into this, every post you put on is always negative about the gers, its not only me who picks this out, there's not many if any of the guys on here have any respect for your backstabbing views, i don't think i have read one post you put up that praises any game that we have played in, get over yourself.



30 Aug 2020 10:29:30
Paul86

Stewart is crap and should be nowhere near the squad let alone the team. Why does a journeyman player who couldn’t get a game at a truly awful Birmingham team get into our match day squad?



30 Aug 2020 10:36:17
I have to agree with truebluesotrue Coldo, you rarely if ever come across as positive and constructive in your posts. I know this a banter site, but for goodness sake we are all supposed to be Rangers supporters! I could understand such negativity during the Warburton and Caxhina days but not now!



30 Aug 2020 10:41:33
Have to agree with coldo we are dominacing poor teams and scoring
Very few goals a poor livi zero
Aberdeen second 11we scored 1
Yes as long as we win its great
The new strikers need time but if
They are to be the managers choice get them on and match fit before we meet the other mob.



30 Aug 2020 10:48:56
I think he won a competition or something.



30 Aug 2020 10:54:51
SM, I could of scored that goal and I'm 51 !



30 Aug 2020 12:01:14
Coldo the we played yesterday a fit and firing Alfie would’ve bagged a hat trick, same with Defoe, I think Itten will score a barrowload from bb and tavs deliveries once fit and up to speed. He’s the tm we e been needing at times.



30 Aug 2020 14:35:55
The stuck u need to be in that position to score that easy goal so no credit for him as a rb being in the box to score in the first place.



30 Aug 2020 16:43:24
Not saying he's not crap am say stewart will be classed as are 4th striker when morelos leaves. I can't see us going in for another one.



30 Aug 2020 16:49:42
How was it aberdeens second 11? They were only cosgrove short of there first choice 11.



29 Aug 2020 23:02:42
Think it's clear from
Today we need better than barker, better than hagi till he sorts himself out and dare I say it on here as everybody thinks he's a great player. We need better at rb. He scored a tap in and people think that justifies his position. The guy is brutal.

It cannot be just me that does not rate tav in the slightest, is it?
He hits 1 in 10 crosses to a man
Can't defend
Gets caught out of position constant.
Loses possession just as much
The list goes on.

How Does he get away with it week in week out?



30 Aug 2020 01:34:33
He maybe gets away with it due to the clean sheets, his assists and goals. Is there any other defender with his stats?



30 Aug 2020 03:18:10
You had me up to Tav. We broke a defensive record today and he scored but some can't help themselves. I will agree Haji is not living up to the hype but we beat Hamilton at a cantor. NEXT.



30 Aug 2020 05:10:50
0 goals conceded is why he keeps his position so far this season, same as McLaughlin and helander kept theirs. He isn’t going out the side, he is the captain. It’s just not going to happen. Patterson will eventually take over but not for a while yet.



30 Aug 2020 08:05:25
Tav hasn’t had a great start to the season attacking wise also what decent striker has our defence been up against yet?



30 Aug 2020 08:10:21
Some can’t accept or are unable to see Tav is a liability, sure he’s not the worst hence why he retains his place, but seriously if we could afford a decent replacement do you think he would retain his place.



30 Aug 2020 09:35:24
That’s my point. So he's getting away with it based on the fact he has no competition other then a kid. Getting a clean sheet just because he’s in the line up doesn’t hide the fact the guy is stealing a wage and has been for years. Captain my ass. He’s dreadful and very annoying to watch. Wish people would see the big picture. We need better then him.



30 Aug 2020 18:53:49
The12thman, you can see Tavs expression when he duffs his cross, he's not happy with himself. He simply hasn't improved. If you look at Barasic, he has a wee look up before he crosses the ball. Tav just hasn't got the skill to do this. This is not a 1 off, its every game. He continuously gives away possession. Gerrard needs to grow a pair and drop him we would've so much better. Oh and he needs to be stripped of the captain's armband, that job needs to go to someone else.



29 Aug 2020 22:27:45
Guys missed the game today working as per

Another clean sheet I see which is great

Why was Itten not in squad today anyone know?

Did we only play one up top today?



30 Aug 2020 07:00:19
Itten had calf injury. Hagi will be back on bench when aribo is fit. Roofe had ok game but missed a sitter. Barker was worse than honking. Davis jack helander and kent strolled the game. Mclaughlin making good save and will rightly continue as no1 keeper.



30 Aug 2020 09:33:08
Barker will come good, getting into good positions and cannot fault his commitment. Needs to have more belief in himself which will come with games and his class will show.



30 Aug 2020 18:56:39
Paul86, you forgot to mention that Tav cannot pass to someone with the same colour of shirt and continuously gave away possession!



29 Aug 2020 22:13:06
Hi
Happy with 3 points today, but we need to score more goals.

We will not always dominate every game like we have so far, the way we are playing we should score a minimum of 3 goals per game.

But any win is a good win.



30 Aug 2020 01:30:05
It was easy today so I think some teams cruise.



29 Aug 2020 21:14:57
Who could have thought at the beginning of the season our no 1 goalie would have lost his place sitting on the bench.
What a signing big John has been and deserves his place as the results have proved. What a situation we are in having the 2 best keepers in Scotland fighting for a spot in our team. We'll done John mclaghlin you have been superb.
