Rangers Banter Archive September 30 2020

 

Use our rumours form to send us rangers transfer rumours.


30 Sep 2020 23:36:38
wondering how long it will be before Walter Tulls Black postbox is desecrated now that its been highlighted in the press, i'm not for one minute thinking it wouldn't happen if the. Man was celtics first black player, but the fact the guy was killed in action surely earns him some respect.



01 Oct 2020 07:17:04
Already seen some despicable comments about it on the internet.
Some people have no shame.



01 Oct 2020 07:38:19
Disgusting, sadly they are prevalent everywhere.



30 Sep 2020 23:23:28
Finished work and sat and listened to Steven Gerrards Press conference
Thought it was really good,

Interesting was that fact he said he's made himself clear to the board what he thinks we need, but understands under current climate tomorrow nights game could prove the difference in what we do transfer wise over coming days and trying not too stand still
Put a post in recently about not wanting to stand still or I put it as not wanting to be stagnant
So it was nice to hear our manager also relay that 😜
Still think he reads these pages by the way

(Hey Stevie G don't worry we all will keep you right 😂😂😘)

Looking forward to tomorrow's game any win will do
Be great achievement to get too the group stages 3 times in a row 😊
Think it will our hardest game to date though so can't take it lightly

Although Steven looked very calm and relaxed about it in the press conference hopefully the rest of the team has his confidence and calm frame of mind lol

Think even without the stadium being full of fans it will be a cracking game

I honestly feel we will get through one way or another we will win the game

If we do get through. It will be interesting too see who we get in the door before window closes as he obviously has someone in mind?



01 Oct 2020 06:20:09
No doubt about it Galatasaray will be our toughest test we have had in the Qualifiers the last 3 seasons. As well as we have been playing domestically I really think our players/ setup is so much more suited to European football. I also think we will get through but I have a strong feeling it will go in extra time.



01 Oct 2020 06:52:16
Good post bear, although I’m not so sure Gala are without doubt our toughest opponents in the past few years.



01 Oct 2020 08:00:49
Thestigno1, I Hope StevieG doesn’t read the site as a certain person on here can’t wait to run him out the door👍.



01 Oct 2020 08:28:11
@yately 🤣🤣🤣🤣😉.



01 Oct 2020 08:32:36
Who are you alluding too mate?



01 Oct 2020 08:54:30
Yately there more than one on here that has been calling for SG to be sacked!

If we lose tonight, they’ll be out in force.



01 Oct 2020 09:06:19
Tomthumb, I think they are in terms of the Qualifiers. No doubt we have played better opposition in the groups and beyond that.



01 Oct 2020 09:10:22
He isn't alluding to anyone tom, he's just making it up, he likes to make things up. Infact I remember a rant about celtic playing their scottish cup game from last season this season then uefa decided that we would finish last seasons europa league game this season. Loves a good conspiracy with no weight so he does. I don't think anyone wants rid of gerrard or to see him fail, people without the blinkers see where he has to improve and have quite rightly pointed it out👍.



01 Oct 2020 18:40:37
If got you were a want you😜😜😜😜.



30 Sep 2020 21:14:24
I'm completely split on tomorrow nights euro game. I never want us to lose a game ever, however, I won't be heartbroken if we do get knocked out. I think it would be a huge advantage not having the Thur / Sun games and getting points on board on a Sat putting pressure on Celtic after a europa league match. this is a massive season domestically for us going for 55. On the other hand we need the cash from getting into the group stages 🤷🏽‍♂️ and it sounds like if we don't get through our transfer market incomings will be zero.



30 Sep 2020 21:35:44
I won't European football for one we need the finances How else do we pay players and keep accounts healthybwithout a crowded ibrox and secondly, its always exciting being involved in Europe and I also feel our players are becoming better playing against smart oppositions.



30 Sep 2020 22:04:08
Financially we are absolutely desperate to make these group stages. We never blew the season not last season but 1 b4. after new year and once we were knocked out of europe. Should have no bearing on the squad playing 2 games a week. Sure anybody would prefer that to training more.



30 Sep 2020 22:25:48
we need europe. unfortunately its necessary especially this year to help balance the books. indeed i am sure the accountant is more concerned about europe than winning the league.



30 Sep 2020 23:25:23
We finally seem to have the depth to compete on all fronts, and the financial implications from not making the group stages isn't worth thinking about, so I'll be hoping for another big memorable European performance tomorrow night 🔴⚪🔵.



01 Oct 2020 08:15:43
I bet the Turks are not overly confident going into this game. Just go out and play to our full ability, and see where it takes us.



30 Sep 2020 19:39:50
Anyone know how much we got for dire mbape? And is his brother still with us.



30 Sep 2020 20:15:51
His brothers with PSG and plays in a front three alongside DiMaria and Neymar.



30 Sep 2020 20:57:10
His brother is still with us, don’t have a clue what Andy is talking about.



30 Sep 2020 20:57:33
Just seen what Andy is taking about 😂.



30 Sep 2020 22:52:01
😂😂😂.



30 Sep 2020 18:57:34
Think we dodged a bullet we that Murphy with Newcastle watched him against Newport utter tosh.



30 Sep 2020 20:09:43
There's stories stating we're interested in stoke city winger tom ince, on a possible season long loan deal 🤔Thoughts guys?



30 Sep 2020 20:43:12
Would be a no from me coop mate.



30 Sep 2020 20:43:30
He was a decent enough player a few seasons ago coop. Not sure what he's like these days.



30 Sep 2020 20:57:57
They are meant to be in for him as well.



30 Sep 2020 20:58:50
Resounding no.



30 Sep 2020 22:32:37
Agree 6 counties, not sure Murphy would be the answer.



30 Sep 2020 23:28:06
Few seasons ago Ince was being linked to follow in his old man's footsteps by going to Inter, whatever the reason career seems to have stalled since then, i'd welcome a loan move to try and get the best out of him though.



30 Sep 2020 17:59:23
Hi people!
Looks like Arda Turan is out of tomorrow's game. That's a big plus. Solid player.
Sad to see big Cedric is out though.
Even though Jack and Barker are available I would be reluctant to change the team as they are playing well.
Really like Jack but don't think Davis, Kamara or Arfield deserves to be dropped.
I didn't think Jones should have started against Well on Sunday but was proven wrong. Now in Europe again I can't decide between Jones and Hagi.



30 Sep 2020 18:08:47
Blue genius how come he is out.



30 Sep 2020 19:04:23
Blue saw it he has the flu.



30 Sep 2020 19:12:28
Jones fur me n itten injured.



30 Sep 2020 19:27:50
I heard it was positive C.V. test.



30 Sep 2020 21:08:34
If it was a positive cv test then it would be made public, just like the 2 Killie players today.



30 Sep 2020 21:52:01
I’m reading now he had negative cv test but has not traveled as he has flu.



30 Sep 2020 21:55:03
Turan has a C. V. test but it was negative. He’s just got an challenge.
Saw Itten was a doubt.



01 Oct 2020 06:24:01
I would keep Jones is, showed enough on Sunday that his pace can be a very good out for us in a game where I expect there will be times where we are struggling to get out our own half.

I'm torn in the midfield, Davis, Kamara and Arfield don't deserve to be dropped at all but I also think we need Jack in the middle in games like this one.



30 Sep 2020 16:45:09
Appears from sg that anymore signings may well depend on qualification to europa league or players being sold personally I think we're better than the turks and will show that tomorrow night.



30 Sep 2020 18:19:57
Unlikely that anymore signings will be made.



30 Sep 2020 19:14:52
believe me the turks are a top club just as good as the germans that put us out so iv got doubts think the run might be over.



30 Sep 2020 19:32:11
Sorry DSGERSFAN, but the current galatasaray team is nowhere near the quality of bayer leverkusen. They're a good team but nowhere near the team they were, but it will be a difficult tie for us still. I fancy us to beat galatasaray, whereas i didn't fancy us when we were drawn against the quality of leverkusen!



30 Sep 2020 19:39:01
Dsgerfan they finished 6th in th3 turkish league nowherw close to leverkusen quality. They will be on par with likes of porto etc.



30 Sep 2020 19:54:47
And the b0okies wouldn't have us favourites if they were a top team.
We can do it.



30 Sep 2020 19:58:47
Galatasaray are not the team they once were but it most definitely a step up for us. Falcao is still scoring goals for them and if we let him get any chances he will take them. Goldson and Helander will need to be in top form. I think we can do this tomorrow. The way we play seems to be ideal for European football.



30 Sep 2020 20:51:48
Galatasaray aren't team they were, porto are a better team, they maybe be on par or just below feyenoord level.



30 Sep 2020 21:39:17
realy do hope yous guys are rite a would loves us to go at least a coupla more rounds.



30 Sep 2020 15:35:38
Hey guys been looking everywhere to get my son the new tops 3-4 year old can't find them online or in shops, wanted it for his birthday tomorrow but that's not going to happen.

Anyone know where I could get the 3 tops?



30 Sep 2020 15:45:45
Have u tried shop at ibrox.



30 Sep 2020 15:56:04
Yeahjohn25, my wife called them and they said november to her.



30 Sep 2020 18:21:22
Cool FIFA. That is a while.
I’m waiting one for my great nephew.



30 Sep 2020 19:16:19
m8 ther faulty so just get him a buzzlight year 😅😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.



30 Sep 2020 19:27:47
Sports Direct lol.



30 Sep 2020 19:39:27
I actually bought the home anthem jacket and its very smart and the quality is superb 👌Castore have made a lot of quality rangers gear and after the teething problems are fixed, which i've no doubt they will be, we will all see that castore are a quality sportswear firm👍We've got to remember castore are new to the football kit manufacturing business and we're the very first club they've made kits for. I remember when nike first broke into manufacturing football kits in the 80's, with arsenal being the first club they made kits for and there were teething problems there at the start, regarding demand and some quality problems etc🤔.



30 Sep 2020 20:10:04
Yes give Castor's a chance this is the best deal we have had in years! Must say my home top and training top is spot on. I'm sure Castor's will get it right.



30 Sep 2020 21:53:57
Correct SGL and Kingwalter re castore.



30 Sep 2020 23:29:43
Tell them it definitely says September on the birth certificate fifa.



30 Sep 2020 15:32:45
People were saying that Gerrard wasted a lot of money of which I agree but a seen an article today that our full squad cost us 30 million i reckon if we were to sell the same squad you'd at very minimum get 60 million so in a sense his deals ain't been that bad.



30 Sep 2020 15:46:34
Easily banxger.



30 Sep 2020 16:02:17
Agreed, but we would need buyers and as we have seen in the past when we needed to sell almost a full team no-one would be interested. They would however take them all for free, apart from Steven Davis who would get us something (again)



30 Sep 2020 16:20:06
Thats me saying lower end of valuations.



30 Sep 2020 18:22:42
Cool banxger. Show we have better players who have a value going forward.



30 Sep 2020 20:08:39
Still hasn't win anything though, that's what a manager is expected to do at Rangers.



30 Sep 2020 14:41:39
Think we are in with a good chance tomorrow night. Providing we play the way we know we can.

That being said may be different to normal type of game we play in spfl etc in the sense that there may be a more equal share of possession.

If we defend and play as we know we can then we definitely have a chance we have shown in Europe that we can defend well and counter fast.

Arda Turan missing the game is also a bonus.



30 Sep 2020 15:25:48
He never played at the weekend either he doesn’t always start.



30 Sep 2020 17:04:08
Played 70 mins at the weekend.



30 Sep 2020 18:25:22
Here wegi it must have been last Thursday he was on the bench but he still doesn’t play every game and he is past it anyway.


Don’t know how many games they have played but he has inky played in two this season.



01 Oct 2020 14:48:06
@kja9 given Galatasaray have played 3 league games this season and he’s played 2 as you say that’s a regular starter.



30 Sep 2020 14:24:41
Galatasaray missing Turan tomorrow due to C.V.. Massive.



30 Sep 2020 14:18:35
Our training needs to change, Itten comes off fir park pitch full of confidence then all of a sudden he's injured again.



30 Sep 2020 15:26:22
How do you know our training is the problem?



30 Sep 2020 16:24:35
Too many players getting injured may suggest it could be something to do with training methods. How do you know its not KJA9?👍.



30 Sep 2020 17:26:27
A few players in the past have commented on how hard training is and this season Roofe also said he was not used to the level of training.
That being said I do think we wrap players in cotton wool too much.
Itten apparently had a knee issue so given how things have gone recently I wouldn't be surprised if he was out for a few weeks at least.
Something does need looked at.



30 Sep 2020 18:20:51
An unfortunate patten.



30 Sep 2020 18:26:13
Coldo i never said it’s not so what you talking about? 🤭.



30 Sep 2020 18:40:25
Training should be looked at as a source of injury.



30 Sep 2020 19:28:45
I never said you did, I just asked since you questioned the op🤭👍.



30 Sep 2020 12:45:14
Good to see our manager acknowledge Scott Arfield's contribution since he's been back in the starting lineup. I think he's been fantastic the last couple of games and looks back to his best since having the burden of dealing with personal issues last season. Good to have you back son!



30 Sep 2020 13:05:33
Here here
Yes he's been good and hopefully we can see his salute many more times this season.



30 Sep 2020 14:13:54
Great player. Starter every time for me.



30 Sep 2020 15:27:03
Great squad player.



30 Sep 2020 16:12:48
Scott arfield knows what it means to play for rangers and is a quality midfielder, with the ability to have played at a higher level in england for a good 5 years or so! Terrific model professional and glad we have him👍.



30 Sep 2020 17:29:25
Agree SGL and not to hijack the thread but for me would make a good captain, only thing is he doesn't start enough games but on current form he should be starting more.



30 Sep 2020 12:33:55
High scoring game tomorrow. With Rangers going through. Gerrard at the mind games saying their favourites. Aye a decent team but so are we when we are at it. Play to our best group stage here we come.



30 Sep 2020 15:19:52
We will be out of europe at the end of game tomorrow.
Am a betting man so have a £100 on galatasaray to win half time full time.
22/ 1 with bet365.
Dont knock me but am happy to lose the bet but more happy to wi it.



30 Sep 2020 15:28:05
Doesn’t matter if betting man or not never bet against your club that’s my opinion no supporter ever should.



30 Sep 2020 15:42:07
Rab you're going to lose ya bet.



30 Sep 2020 15:47:33
How could you bet against your own team. That is disgusting. You're pathetic Rabrfc. Tell you what, I'm going to put a £20 double on Rangers and Sarajevo to win, evens and 7/ 1. You're not a Bear man if you can bet against your own team. Shame on you!



30 Sep 2020 16:14:40
Everyone to their own but i could never bet against rangers, no matter if we played the quality of a barcelona every week, just couldn't do it.



30 Sep 2020 16:31:31
Oh dear, you are the first person I've heard of to bet against your team. You deserve to loose your £100, which you will !



30 Sep 2020 17:05:54
Bit strange, could never do thst.



30 Sep 2020 18:27:17
It’s up to Rab and others who they bet on. I would not bet against gers.
I know several who bet against rangers in Europe, making thousands from the juventus, Ajax and others.
Some people r what I would call professional gamblers.



30 Sep 2020 10:58:14
More injuries, looks like our strikers are made of Chocolate.



30 Sep 2020 12:29:24
Think itten mite be too yhi g n lanky fur scottish footballw 🙉🤣🤣😂.



30 Sep 2020 12:58:25
Training must be tough as were dropping like flies at the moment.



30 Sep 2020 13:54:48
With all these training injuries showing up i don't know if the players are just prone to them or if the training is to intense. Either way it's not good for so many this early in a season.



30 Sep 2020 14:29:59
Yes made of chocolate, Swiss the best type.



30 Sep 2020 10:31:39
Good read about a team from the Faroe islands having a part time side one game away from the europa League group stages, only lost out in champs league to young boys.

The other team won three rounds before losing to levski Sofia.

Makes you wonder why our game ant develop nationally when these tiny countries can?



30 Sep 2020 17:46:26
Agree Snell, these smaller nations are producing better talent these days but their youth setup is superb. I remember watching a short documentary years ago about the scandanavian youth system and from about 6 years old they trained every day and spent hours at a time at the training centres not only learning about football but lifestyle management also. When you look at the majority our youth then you see why they fail to make the grade, attitude, diet, and life choices completely different.



30 Sep 2020 09:50:03
Itten injured again? After ross county game got bit of time off so hopefully were back to full strength. No doubt be more injuries.



30 Sep 2020 13:41:24
Paul, he is away with Switzerland from Monday.



30 Sep 2020 14:15:00
Looks like av done same post twice. didn't realis this went through. anyway can't see him being away with internationals if he's a major doubt for us 2moro john?



30 Sep 2020 15:22:48
Paul my understanding is if named in squad u need to travel and be assessed by medical team.
Same with Ryan jack.
Was this not what happened re lafferty, did not travel then banned for first game back in league.



30 Sep 2020 08:01:31
Hugh Dallas putting that absolute joke of a supposed expert in his place. M. Stewart. Are the sportscene bosses that short of football talent, that they have to pay that idiot a wage? The few times I've watched that crap, he just whines at everything rangers related, because he knows he was never good enough to play for us. How he gets employment in Scotland is beyond me.



30 Sep 2020 08:39:41
Michael Stewart is a total turd mate. He can't handle the fact that glasgow rangers rejected him, as he just simply wasn't GOOD ENOUGH 😂
He's as bad at punditry as he was at football 😂👎.



30 Sep 2020 12:02:17
Worst £1 Craig levein ever spent. A wee cretin.



30 Sep 2020 12:13:53
Coop mate the use of the word turd made me burst out laughing there 🤣 (so mature I know)



30 Sep 2020 07:56:57
I fancy us to beat galatasaray tomorrow night. I think we'll win 2-0,with morelos and kent our goalscorers 👍My starting 11 would be-
Mcgregor
Tav
Goldson
Helander
Barisic
Kamara
Davis
Arfield
Hagi
Morelos
Kent
I toyed with the idea of jones instead of hagi, but jones with his pace later on, would be a good ploy to bring off the bench, when the game is more stretched 👍Plus hagi has that vision and killer pass, so that's why i'd start him!



30 Sep 2020 08:39:53
Perfect lineup SGL.
Can't see Jones starting either. 👍.



30 Sep 2020 09:09:12
That would also be my starting 11 sgl. Yes Jones on the bench who I'm very happy to see getting his chance to play again. Hopefully Jones will come good because quite frankly Barker does my tits in. He's fast got good feet etc but doesn't have any consistency like a headless chicken sometimes and a bit powder puff and his combover hairdo is shocking.



30 Sep 2020 10:44:57
Good shout sgl.



30 Sep 2020 11:05:32
Spot on with that, SGL.



30 Sep 2020 11:52:57
Agreed. Hagi has the game for European football and is class. Is Defoe still fit enough to be on the bench? Could be useful to bring on late in the game depending on how we are doing as can Jones.



30 Sep 2020 12:05:08
3 cheers do you have a decent comb over? Strong as an ox? Big tits? 👍.



30 Sep 2020 12:29:12
Hagi will be relishing this game! He's a wee legend around those parts and the club means a lot to him, this could be the game that awakens him from his slumber.



30 Sep 2020 12:39:37
Bgate I've not got enough hair for a dodgy combover and my tits are not very good either because he keeps getting on them. Why does he not just get hair implants as that could be what's holding him back. He's built like a racing snake which is great for running fast but that thing bouncing on his head must put him off and make him lose his bearings.



30 Sep 2020 12:58:10
nice to see your posts again sgl.



Review Of The Day 30th September 2020

30 Sep 2020 07:39:05
{Ed's Note - Ed001 has posted a new article entitled, Review Of The Day 30th September 2020



30 Sep 2020 02:48:32
Yaya toure.



30 Sep 2020 07:38:00
Nice to make your acquaintance yaya.



30 Sep 2020 08:41:16
What about ya ya toure Broxxibear 🤔.



30 Sep 2020 02:39:18
Hagi will be our best player once he is settled in. Think he may reach the very top. in the footsteps of his father. He is a joy to watch and can open up defences with passes in an instant his vision is incredible. glad to have him at the famous glasgow rangers.



30 Sep 2020 07:40:30
Well, you must be watching someone completely different from the guy I’ve been watching mate, and. When you think he will have “ settled in “.



30 Sep 2020 08:05:38
Really really cannot see it.



30 Sep 2020 08:41:42
The same posters who aren't giving Hagi time to "settle in" are the very same posters who would have chased Barisic out if Ibrox!



30 Sep 2020 08:48:02
Paul 86, regarding your comment yesterday, that you're not a teenager anymore and basically too old to buy/ wear a rangers replica jersey🤔You're never too old to buy/ wear the rangers replica jersey pal, its an individual choice and because you think its more for younger supporters, doesn't mean its wrong for older gers diehards buying and wearing rangers replica jerseys!
I know thousands of our senior supporters, who attend ibrox wearing our replica jerseys and rightly so!
I love wearing my teams colours on matchday/ anyday for that matter. Its not your cup of tea and that's fine but its many thousands other bears choice and there's absolutely nowt the matter with that.



30 Sep 2020 09:03:26
That'll teach you to post something positive Broxxibear!



30 Sep 2020 09:11:39
Broxi did you ever see Hagi snr play in the flesh? If so I doubt you would have made that comparison! Hagi snr was one of the greatest to ever grace a football pitch!



30 Sep 2020 09:40:00
I’m sorry but hagi has been far from
A joy to watch for me mate. More frustration and disappointment more often than not. I think he has talent and in all honesty is probs a few steps ahead of what he’s playing with but his inconsistent play not doing him any favours. His ball retention isn’t great and he very slow and lightweight. Just an opinion but I hope he comes good because I like the kid.



30 Sep 2020 10:12:43
To be fair Tom people on here people on here said same about Kent when he was playing poorly now look at him now, no doubt hagi got talent just different adapting to Scottish football - give him time.



30 Sep 2020 10:23:52
Broxi, you are obviously sharing the same view as our manager and coaching team who probably know a thing or two about footballers.

Reality is that we cannot afford to buy superstars in their prime so we are in the market for players with obvious pedigree and real potential.

Barasic and Kent are just two of our current crop who took time to settle into our team and now lead the stats.

Not every signing will work out - not sure what the acceptable level is but I guess if we buy cheap and 20% hit the real highs we are doing ok.



30 Sep 2020 10:24:12
So far i like hagi in spells as he can show real top quality at times, however his start to the season has been slow and he needs to find consistency and take better care of the ball at times.



30 Sep 2020 00:25:09
Have to say can't agree with posts regarding kamara. Imo, the boy is head and shoulders above the rest, intelligence with passes etc, vastly underated and for £50k? Absolute steal.

Couldn’t agree more.

He goes missing at times and leaves a lot of passes short of the target, great signing for 50k but he's certainly not head and shoulders above the rest.

Doesn't dominate the midfield enough for me though he's talented in other areas of his game.

Agreed sweep. He definitely goes missing. Great player for the money. No doubt but could offer so much more. If you compare how he played in the 2 nil win b them at ibrox to say v Motherwell then we k ow what he can do. If he played like that which we know he can then we wouldn’t be having this debate. 👍 IMO.

I actually think he is a player who performs well under pressure but given a bit of time on the ball I think he can be careless in possession. What he is excellent at though is off the ball and plugging gaps left by teammates. The amount of time he breaks up attacks by merely being in the right place is unbelievable.
