We would be in sh#t streak if whyte had not bought us ..our top players would of gone for pea nuts..and the club would of been up creak with out a paddle boy

Call urself a gers fan disgrace is wot i would call u m8t.

We are in the exact same position as to before whyte bought us.
We've still not payed the dept off , whyte said the dept will be payed of and he will transfer the 18m payed into shares for himself but if we lose our HMRC case he will take his 18m back.
whats that tell you. If we lose our case we will be up sh*ts creek without a paddle.
I for one aint happy as whyte has not showen us anything to be exited about.
He can walk about with the SPL trophy and unfurle the WINNERS flag but he's nothing to deserve it.
If you want to bask in the triumph Mr Whyte then show your comitment by signing some decent players.
Any gers fans who think otherwise your are intitaled to your views but you really need to look outside your little blue box.
WE DESERVE BETTER.
(he aint no billionaire) {Ed047's Note - Utter nonsense. Pre Whyte we would have lost McGregor and Davis. Bougherra would have gone and all for way below their value as per Lloyds policy. Whittaker too but that would be easier to cope with. Bedoya, Goian and Wallace wouldn't be here.

right we are obviously going to miss out on DG, so lets use the money that has (supposedly) set aside for this tranfer and the impending cash from the Boughy sale to ensure Verhoek comes in, also 1 more realistic bid for the hungarian, then save the cash till the EPL teams announce their 25 man squads and bring in a couple of quality signings remember we ARE Glasgow Rangers, we should be actively pursuing players who want to sign for us not putting in token bids for players who may or may come

How many talented RANGERS fans have Rangers lost to English clubs? James McArthur, Graham Dorrans, Andy Halliday and now seemingly David Goodwillie to name some now don't let it be the same with young Jamie Murphy who's surprisingly a Rangers fan. Jamie Murphy is half the price of Goodwillie, younger, more versatile and I will wish Goodie all the best and would love him to be at Rangers at some stage in his career but if that's not now let's not lose Jamie Murphy aswell?

I understand why whyte is not willing to overpay for players but it's getting embarrassing now...if we offered 2million for goodwillie last wk we would have had him....also i don't remember Murray conducting business I.e transfers in such a ridiculous mannor These bids are not even close to realistic valuations. As for the team it's self I think we are 3/4 players short of a strong starting 11 Europe has came far to early but I believe we should overturn that scoreline away One of the our strong points are performing away ;-)ag

Correct, Murray did not act like this and what a state it left us in.
Agree0

If we bid £2 million we may have been allowed to talk to him, if DU accepted this ibd; not sign him. If Goodwillie wants to go down south then he would have waited for a club to come in so he could go down there. A bid of £2 million from us might just have resulted in Blackburn putting in a similar bid and him being able to talk to both clubs. Being a Gers fan does not automatically mean you are going to sign for us. Anyway I would rather have any quality players, even if they support Celtic, signing for the club. to

Are folk EVER going to stop posting Goodwillie has signed for Blackburn and will have a medical before confirming the deal tomorrow ...
Read all the media statements on it guys-
SKY_" We expect DG to agree terms and have a medical at Blackburn tomorrow after DUFC accepted the offer and gave permission to Blackburn to talk to him"
BBC- See above
ITV- See above
Lots of quotes from Houston with "I think", "I expect" and "I don't know" being used a lot.
Fack all from DG, or his agent.
Houston IS quoted as saying a late offer has come in from Rangers and he DOESN'T KNOW if his chairman will accept it.
Media outlets doing their usual and speculating the life out of a story seeing as they have no facts.
What will be interesting is if Rangers bid the £2Mil that DUFC have told the world, and Goodwillie, that they will let him go for...Then DUFC renege on that deal when Goodwillie tells them he wants to go to Gers and DUFC say "naw, you're goin to the highest bidder"
Even though DG will feel he owes DUFC for sticking by him, he's gonna be mighty pssed when his preferred option gets knocked back even after meeting the fee DUFC told him they would let him go for.
If gers have met the original £2Mil valuation, let the games begin.
Believable2

Agree with virtually everything you have said. Your correct, once it had been confirmed that Blackburn and Dundee Utd had agreed a fee almost all top media outlets had jumped on the bandwagon. Think it just goes to show you anothe rproblem, all our transfer business is being carried out in the open rather than behind closed doors. Only issue I have is regarding the £2million price tag. All I would say is I wouldn't like to think United's stance would have changed but its perfectly understandable as we have had all summer to pay the £2million and now Blackburn have raised the stakes, would we be prepared to miss out on an additional £800k plus a percentage of any sell on fee? I think not. Hopefully Mr. Whyte can get has act together and get a deal done but its looking more and more unlikely as each day goes by

Bored out my face of this chasing of Goodwillie, sick of lookin at this site and reading rubbish about him and other bampots we are NOT going to buy. We will be selling Bougy in wed, money used for another defender to replace him., also possibly un for boyd, not gettin verhoek, not gettin cuellar, not bein funded by whyte.

Naismith will do a job as a striker but he's a wide midfielder for me. Last season he was by a distance Rangers best player and one of the most striking things about him were his late, Scholes esque runs into the box (same as he got his goal against Hearts). For me playing him up front takes too much out of a midfield thats already severely lacking and I feel thats his best position anyway
Agree0

31 Jul 2011 20:44:35
Don't understand anything about the Goodwillie situation. I would understand it if we said: he's a bampot, we're no interested. I would understand it if we bid a reasonable amount- the £2m asking. Why the hell do we open bidding £1m with no chance and just antagonising them? It's ridiculous. Then we keep going, offering £1.6m plus £600k? if we wanted to test what the player wanted did we no have to meet the £2m very publicly stated asking price at which point Thompson would have to allow him to talk to Rangers?
We've demeaned ourselves throughout this window. Totally naive. Should have identified three or four key targets and made proper bids if that's all the budget allows. We're a joke. I can see exactly the same unfolding with this guy Murphy. Initially bid £500k, get told to get stuffed, mess about, a stoke will come in and bid £1m, which we will at the most match at the eleventh hour, after having destroyed any goodwill between ourselves and the selling club with all these ridiculous antics.
Ally should zip it on the targets too. "Yes, we're very keen..."- get your bloody finger oot and make a reasonable offer then by christ. The whole thing is very embarrassing.

Aye but its ashame, if not for rangers then for scotland, to see such a prospect going to waste. Look at Wilson, made a handful of appearances for Liverpool when he was, himself, such a prospect. It must be difficult to hear the papers saying you're the next big thing one transfer window while the next they're speculating if youre going to return to scotland with your tail between you legs and expect to be the same prospect. If he doesn't do well at Rovers and moves to us or the championship this time next year, then he'll never be as good as he could have been. I can't wait for this to be over, one way or another, though i rather think this site will be much less active, though ed 047 doesn't seem to mind that ;) M

Believable5

Completely agree that he's not worth £2.8m. He had 1 good season in the SPL and could be a real problem given his off the field behaviour. We need to look abroad as values in the UK market are inflated and every SPL club increases their valuation as soon as an agent links the old firm to a player.

There has been a history of antipathy between Dundee United and Rangers in recent years, started by an apparent close relationship between the late Eddie Thompson and Peter Lawwell, Lawwell has now emerged as Stewart Regan s right hand man at Regan s Scottish Football Association.
Therefore his views have a better than even money chance of going on to become SFA policy.
And what is also interesting is how the Celtic chief executive managed to come from nowhere to be elected to the SFA s new Professional Game Board and move to the brink of an even bigger power grab.
For I can can reveal that, contrary to what Regan palmed the press off with, Lawwell was not invited.
He was voted on by the five-man SPL Board, of which Celtic financial director, Eric Riley is a member.

I think everyone needs to get off our managers and whytes back .....
we have Wallace, Bedoya, Goian & Ortiz
we still have another month to sign players...
If Goodwillie goes to Blackburn then fair enough, good luck to the guy, i firmly believe we will get the right squad together in a couple of weeks.
Rangers obv cudent have known the outcome of his rape trial and Blackburn came in the runninf for him out of the blue..and you have to accept if they want him badly they will get him anyway ...as the still have much more money to splash than us unfortunetley...
Im sure and yous must agree...there are better players than goodwillie that we can buy for 2.5 million.
I think we will get the dutch boy and the anderlecht defender, they have both stated they are desperate to come...and believe me it will have a massive say...
so there you go two/three weeks from now hopefully we woulda taken care of Malmo and have
Wallace, Goian, Bedoya, Ortiz, Verhoek & Juhasz + another striker and possibly midfielder...cueller is still on the horizon aswell.
The future is bright just keep your faith...dont listen to all these idiots that keeping slating whyte...coz lets be honest they dont know what there talking about.

Ed047 what do you think will happen if gers dont win on Wednesday, believe Whyte was counting on £15m+ champion league money in case HMRC case goes pearshaped, yes I know you think HMRC case is already won, but I dont think many, including people within Ibrox share your confidence. Yes I hear you say we will appeal but then case will drag on and on and drain resources much needed elsewhere, also if things dont go well in league Whyte will have to deal with all the disgruntled fans who feel he has let them down as well as try and focus his energies on tax case, I see choppy waters ahead. Timalloy {Ed047's Note - I'd like to think he had a plan that didn't incorporate CL money, after all both sides should have learned from recent debacles such as Celtic's double Euro exit last season in August and Rangers exit to Kaunas in 2009. Who knows, maybe if we lose out to Malmo our stadium will be renamed the Tennents Lager Stadium or the Dr White's (should that be Whyte?) Stadium

Seriously Ed047 Celtic were looking at renaming stadium a couple of years ago and some BIG companies like Coca Cola were going to put in something like £3-£4m over 5 year period but board thought Celtic fans would not stand for it but if you think either club getting an injection like that every year would be worth thinking about.

So, the David Goodwillie transfer saga rumbles on again It's been quite incredible and i'm still astonished as to how he is not a Rangers player by now, its actually laughable. Everyone is criticising Stephen Thompson which is ridiculous He has stated all along this summer that £2million was the asking price, how often do clubs publicly announce a player is for sale? Yet, knowing this, we have continued to embarass ourselves with abismal offers of the player, who according to many is a Rangers fan. Now that Blackburn have upped the ante for Goodwillie, everyone is suggesting Dundee Utd are moving the goalposts. Think about it. Blackburns offer totals £2.8million plus a percentage of any sell on fee. Why would the accept £1.6million +600k add ons? Would we accept that? Ofcourse we wouldn't lets not get blindsighted by this sudden determination to sign DG, we have had every opportunity to snap up him up but Mr Whyte has sat back and tightened the pursestrings and made us look like a laughing stock, not just with DG but with almost every other transfer we have been involved in It's time for Whyte to step up to the plate and show us the money and give Ally the best chance possible and making a go of things as Rangers.

I'm not at all keen on Thomson, but what a lesson he has given us.
He stated 2m and he's yours, we never came up with it.
Now he's sitting their pishing himself with 2m + 800k add ons, saying to us 'told you 2m was a bargain and you didn't believe me' 'you could have had him'......
We don't have the stature or the power anymore to act the c*** with teams.
It's ok trying to get the best deal, but not at the expense of totally embarrassing the club.
We are like amature's playing at business men
Agree0

Completely agree mate. Dundee Utd will be rubbing their hands with sheer and utter delight at the deal their now getting. The way we have conducted ourselves in the transfer market has been ludicrous, as you correctly pointed out there is a fine line been trying to get the best deal and just taking the Colin Nish. With a month left to go I sincerely hope Whyte provides the funds we desperately need to improve our squad

I disagree with the Davis not being able to split defences thing, he does it about 5 times a game, when he's in the middle of the park he plays a perfectly weighted ball up to the strikers to simply control and score it's when he plays on the right hand side he isn't the one controlling the game. That's why it's bad tactics shoving him out of the middle.

Shop assistant - 'That's £3.20 please'

Rangers - 'OK. What about £2.80 plus the extra 40p in 3 years time?'

Ed, do you think it's backfired on Rangers leaving it to late to offer £2m? My opinion is Rangers should forget about Goodwillie and wait till the EPL clubs have named their 25 man squads. We have enough forward to see us though till then. They will be a few good forwards left out down their. McCoist should go for murphy from Motherwell.

To my fellow Bears, just a wee notion, Ally McCoist stated quite crealy on live tv that he was still very interested in signing Goodwillie, so the boy knows we want him. two things are quite clear to me here..............................
1: Thompson, Dundee Utd have, and had NO intention of selling this boy to us, end of story.
2: Goodwillie has been TOLD this, and that at no price would they accept any offer Rangers made. This, to me, is quite clearly why it is in his best interest to move to Blackburn Rovers, the deal is done there. Let's move on with this circus, and try for another striker with a future at Rangers, BUT........... let Rangers and the fans, never forget D Utd's refusal to deal with us on this affair. onward and upward Rangers, 4 in a row.

Couldnt agree more, the way this has dragged on and with dundee uniteds refusal to do business with the champions is farcical.peter houston has, in my opinion, shown himself to be an absolute muppet.his comments regarding glasgow and the old firm have been just plain stupid.he should be absolutely hounded at ibrox and we should (if it were fair to our players) boycott tannadice.hit them where it hurts.i understand that there were issuses with rangers bids initially which is understandable that they may refuse but with goodie a rangers man and his dream to play for us, isnt it rather selfish of them to effectively take it away from him? i dont really understand the ins and outs of the proposed deals but it sounds poor from the united side of it.time to go for trickovski or jamie murphy i feel. {Ed003's Note -Dundee Utd can do as they see fit,he is/was there player}
Agree0

Listen, just accpet the fact that we did not offer what Blackburn did - if we did then our offer would have been accepted and it would have been up to Goodwillie. Stephen Thomson would sell to the higest bidder we all know that
Agree0
Disagree0
Houston is telling it how it is I'm afraid, there are too many people in Glasgow that would love to have a pop at DG if he signed for us. The guy has shown how he handles that in the past so would be an arrest waiting to happen. Anyone that cares about DG the man as opposed to the player would recommend he left Scotland. I'd love to see him in a Rangers top but he needs a couple of seasons put of the spotlight an we can't offer him that. As for Dundee UTD refusing to deal with us, take off the blue tinted glasses ffs
Agree0

The only reason Rangers have not had their bid accepted is that they have messed about so much and now there is a better offer on the table. Thompson is getting the best deal for his club. Rangers have nobody to blame but themselves.

Christ but we are a fickle lot. For weeks goodwillie was the second Christ , RFC management were slated for not being serious at attempting to buy him and now he's not good enough. IMO we may lose one of the best Scottish finishers in a decade, let's also be honest but we were trying to get him on the cheap.Also consider this but the Epl transfer frenzy hasn't even warmed up yet so Jelavic will still be seen as a target, hope not but will we walk from a 8 m offer, doubt it.

We've got every right to be frustrated but you can't be angry that we're refusing to be bullied by teams. These teams we're doing business with (most notably D.Utd, but also Ado and Ander) know that we've got some money now, and know that both Whyte and Mccoist are inexperienced in the transfer market, and are consequently trying to force us into paying maximum price. We've got 4 players already in and extended some of our key players contracts, while we all wanted more than that, we've done well to get these players for decent prices. Whyte is a business man and he is proving that by refusing to match inflated price tags and testing clubs resolves. This is my opinion, but i honestly trust in whyte and ally. It will all come good in a few weeks... i hope.

I'm thinking folk should stop worrying about getting signings in quickly, the window is open for another month and i think that the three signings we have made are very good signings. The big defender goian proved this yesterday on his debut. Also i felt lee wallace has had proved his worth in the last two games as well. Ortiz i wasn't sure about at first but he also came on yesterday and showed us he is more than capable of keeping up with the rest of the team. Ally McCoist has only had three competitive games and has'nt lost in the league yet, i also think that we can go to malmo and get the reslult we need to move on. ONCE we get past qualifier i do expect a lot more to happen as it will take less pressure off white to put money forward on the return we may get. Just thought i would get my say in as its hurtful to see the loyal fans panning off the team so early.

Good shout on the little part i thought that would be a good idea too. He is suppose to be a striker and he really needs to get 1st team football. He needs it to make or break his gers career.
End of the day Little and Goodwillie are same age but i dont thnk you will find any gers fans that would rather see little up top.
Give them little on yrs loan with buying option... I dont think hes rangers standard tbh...
We dont even know what position he is. He has played as a striker and a rb for us and as a MF for N ireland? bit of an enigma..

What's the latest on our Goodwillie bid? Going with what people are saying on here seems as though we have met the asking price but Utd still won't accept, if that's the case surely it's up to Goodwillie to force the move?

The real man 2 blame 4 this bidding war 4 goodwillie is craig whyte not DUFC if he paid the 2 million last week he would be ours now, agreed ed? {Ed01's Note - nope, that is why you will never be a successful businessman and he is. You never, ever, ever, pay the full price unless you absolutely have to and you have cash to spare. Rangers do not have cash to spare and they don't need him that desperately.}

Spot on ED. I respect rangers for not immediatley paying the 2m like we would have way back when. I'd respect us even more if we simply dropped interest in him now after our most recent rejected bid. Would send a message to SPL teams that we're not to be bullied in the transfer market now we have money.

Ed, sorry m8, but I disagree with the part where " we are not that desperate " Scenario here, Jelavic gets injured, Naismith suspended ?? please, give me your front line ? Remember Lafferty is out, and Ally won't even put healy on for last ten mins, when we are 2v0 up at Perth. We need someone in, a striker with an eye for goal, if not Goody, or Murphy..................... who ???? 4inarow {Ed047's Note - sorry, not my reply originally. That was Ed001. We survived last season with Miller, Lafferty & Naismith for the first half and Jela in for Miller for the second half of the season basically

Blackburns 2nd Goodwillie bid was NOT accepted. Read the story on SSN website saying " Kean won't discuss Goodwillie " Quotes from Kean in the story state that he has 3 - 4 Bids in for different players but will not comment on any transfer until an offer is accepted. This story was put up at 9pm last nite. So Jim Spence is full of it . . No bid has been accepted hence Goodwillies agent stating they haven't been given permission to speak with anyone. . We are still in the chase but wish we would drop out, as Thompson is gonna screw us on this one WATP

I would still take goody any day of the week member people questioning his price lafferty great player but not consistent any body that says he is is wrong played amazing end of season but nothing to shout about upto then and we payed 3million of something for him.
I even think the goody and lafferty up front would be good

We need to wise up on the Goodwillie thing if we don't get him so what, is he really that good? No way he's worth 2million+ i for one am glad we are not getting held to ransome by utd.Lets all calm down and have a bit of trust in Ally after all he is a Rangers die hard and like us wants the best for us.WATP.

As I have said before I'm not sure we really need Goodwillie unless of course we are offloading Jelly next year. If this was not the case I would rather we beefed up the midfield, at the very least bring in Bedoya now.
Does anyone know when Ness is due back?

There is def smoke getting blown up our arses but im unsure whos blowing it
Its said that Goodwillie could not "agree personal terms" with black burn after a 2.8M bid.... However dufc havent allowed him to talk to any individual club yet..."We have not been given permission by Dundee United to speak to any club yet, so at the moment we are waiting on that permission being given, " agent Liam O'Donnell told BBC Scotland.
SO either he actually wants to join us and dufc know this and are simply using this bid as leverage for more cash from us, ,
OR he knows of another club he would like to join besides us ans his holding out in hope of a bid? WHat so you lot think?

Everyone stop worrying about the DG situation, its gonna drag and we may have to pay 2.5ish for him but he will score goals and we are not going to complain when he does this
Basically dundee united and his agent are trying to force him to move down south but he himself knows there is only one place he wants to move to. We all know where that is.
So we dont have to worry about him not agreeing terms with blackburn because the terms were basically, im not interested, thanks but no thanks, DG is coming to us and no-one else, if Rangers return with a 4th bid and united reject then we can expect a written transfer request from DG very quickly. If not they will accept and DG will be at gers within days.

Goodie at Gers within days and Bar-L within weeks.
We must be insane to sign the guy, he's a lunitic and an accident waiting to happen.
No doubt you'll all be responding shouting you're mouth off about how much a gers fan he is, but we are definately lowering our standards with this player.
Really hope i'm not on in a few weeks to say 'told you so'

True blue here dad just said to me about BBC 1 Scotland teletext saying that David Goodwillie has failed to agree terms with Blackburn Rovers. Does this mean that he infact doesn't want to go to an English club and is holding out for the club he loves? Why would be reject terms from a Premier League club and sign with a Championship club if so? No matter what happens though we are still the people :D

Laughing at the third suggestion. If we get Goodwillie, our main focus for developing a player this season ought to be Jela - if we can advertise him etc. in the champs league we could be seeing something around £15m for him this time next year (not that i'd want to sell him but his talent would be wasted if he stayed here his whole career). I think when Laff comes back, we see how fit he is and play naismith and goodwillie in a rotation untill laff gets his fitness back.

wee had a bid in in for Goodwillie earlier today got rejected but another bid will be put in this morning heard it from a pal who said he heard it from somewhere don't know if he is talking pi5h but that is what he said so a Suppose were just gonna have to wait and see but a do think that Thomson is taking the pi5s because a don't think he is worth what hes asking for instead put a bid in for Jamie Murphy who will only cost a million and in my opinion he would be quality {Ed047's Note - I heard it from somewhere that you heard it from someone who heard it from somewhere. Hopefully Coisty will hear it from somewhere and stick in a bid
