was hoping we would have signed another striker with hemmings injured and unproven.thot the new aussie artoir was one,but aparantly he,s a midfielder
have to say tho,i think wehave a better midfield than we,ve had for a couple of seasons.at least we have guys in. mid field now that can get us goals.
06 Sep 2012 20:58:59
acording to the daily celic. bocanegra may not be registered , could be back. hope its true. think we need a good influence in central defence. apart from tht we look solid, though would have prefered to sign an expereince back up goalie
The daily Celic? It astonishes me the amount of fans who forget all the Whyte propaganda spun by this rag. Oh, and for the twenty years before thanks to Murray.Stop being sheep and ask the right people the right questions.I would love Green to fully lay out his plan for the share issue
Is he allowed to play? Did Templeton not take his 21 SFL players list? Can Boca play, or will he have to be freed. For the sake of Scottish fitba, i hope he stays.For his international career he'll need to move on.
To be fair he has been a quality player. Hope it works out for him.

@1. And you lot seem to forget the mhedia over-hyping decisions that went against Celtic and the subsequent 12 page article from a Celtic manager complaining that everyone was against them.
1. We also remember the Celtic (Lawwell)propaganda regarding refs. One ref told a fib as to why he did/did not give Celtic a penalty, and was dealt with by the SFA. I can then remember the Daily rag printing every piece of tosh that was put out by Celtic PR Machine as to how Celtic always had important decisions go against them, that all refs had an agenda against them and they would never get a fair treatment by Scottish refs and then wanted foreign refs to intervene. No wonder the Scottish refs threatened/acted out, strike action. Celtic used the daily rag to attack the integrity - (yes remember that word) - of all Scottish referees. There is more i.e - when Celtic fans cause trouble, especially when abroad - very little mentioned if anything by the daily rag (tends to be found in papers like the Herald/Scotsman rather than the tabloids). Yet when Rangers fans caused trouble in Manchester (approx 39 fans of the 150-200,000 fans that were there) we get a thirty page spread about what bad people ALL Rangers fans are and that they sing 'naughty' songs (like Celtic fans don't sing 'naughty' songs eh!). I am not condoning what they did in Manchester in any way (stupidity, drunkeness and violence are no excuse)but it was blown all out of proportion, and the Daily rag was the fore-runner of that.
I know alot about Scottish football is a) i am from Scotland b) i like football.
End of
DazzaBhoy
Was Barecelona overstated as you suggest Manchester was?
Worst night since the blitz, that really is some accolade!
Urinating and rioting in Barcelona!
Banned from Europe for sectarian chanting!
@4;What a total load of rubbish. Firstly you admit that a ref did lie in not awarding Celtic a penalty,How do you explain that? As for your all Refs agenda question i will cite two examples.The Dallas sectarian e mail fiasco,Dallas was the Ref supervisor remember.Secondly,Collum awarding rangers a penalty at Parkhead that he did not see.Name when Celtic in bother abroad has not been reported? The last trouble i remember was in Villareal,and Celtic were cleared with heavy handed Policing blamed. Laughably,39 fans caused all that damage and trouble,including the sickening assault on a Police officer,in Manchester? Are you insane?
@6 Oldco? Or newco and do we only have selected history when it suits your posts!
Please make up your minds. PB
@6. I am not saying Rangers fans are angels and don't do anything wrong, but when you get the sanctimonious ones on here (yes you know who you are) accusing us of being everything evil in football, it beggars belief. All teams have a certain element within it's fanbase who will cause trouble, but it seems to be the Rangers element that the press/mhedia seem to have a field day with. For the fans of other teams who criticise Rangers fans - step back and take a look at your own fanbase before having a go at anyone else. Pot, Kettle, Black comes to mind.
Just because approx. 39 fans were convicted doesn't mean it was just 39 fans on the rampage. I'm sure the videos of that night don't all involve the same 39!
The VAST majority of up to 200,000 had a great time. About 50 idiots kicked off, a couple of hundred got caught up in it when the police lost control and went in heavy handed. But the record went for the negative headline! Not the game or the majority who had a great time. And yes I'm glad the thugs got caught, but some got stuck in the middle of it! Totally out of proportion.
Yes we had a bit of bother in Barca I was there & saw it all, no one ever mentions the fact that the Spanish Police were brandishing there hand guns before anyone hit the pitch, also when we were leaving the pitch peacefully the police started to hit the fans with 3ft batons. I've a photo of one fan being battered by several policemen as he was lying curled up on the ground.There was no report of any trouble in the City after the game & yes I was on the pitch & like all other fans who's team had just won a major European trophy waiting on my team being presented with the cup but the Spanish police made sure no one would see it presented Fife Loyal
Pb great post, according to them we played our first game this season. I think they maybe are getting confused with the rangers as opposed to rangers their arch rivals. First we have no history and now we are getting blamed for smashing up manchester you got the wrong club boys we have never played in europe and cant for 3 years.
@7. No I'm not insane, here's an incident the happened abroad - Australia (Just in case you missed it - there are more).
Quote:
NINE male and two female Celtic fans were arrested in Sydney yesterday for attempting to invade the pitch during the Glasgow side's fixture with the Central Coast Mariners.
New South Wales Police confirmed that 11 Celtic fans among the 19,482 crowd were arrested after jumping the fence and trying to run on to the pitch during the match at ANZ Stadium, where The Mariners beat Celtic, 1-0.
This was taken from the Scotsman - Don't remember it being mentioned in the Record.
Regarding refs, we have had many penalty/offside/goal decisions go against us but we don't bleat on about an agenda us. As i said, one bent ref doesn't mean they are all corrupt. Hugh Dallas sent a joke email about the pope and the great offended/victimised took exception to it - Jokes like this happen day in day out, and about every subject - you name it, religion,sex,politics etc. Maybe Dallas retaliated, sho knows, since a certain teams fan cut his head open at an old firm game with a coin or because they attacked his house/car and left his family frightened. There are elements in both teams fans who have done things that the majority of normal fans would deplore - as i said Pot,kettle,black.
@7. Forgot to mention in the Australia news report in the Scotsman.
New South Wales Police are very disappointed with the way that a minority of Celtic fans behaved tonight," a spokeswoman said. "Fans who assaulted police and other fans will be prosecuted through the courts."
Source: The Scotsman
See, you accuse our fans of assaulting the police, but your fans do it as well although it only gets mentioned in the tabloids here when Rangers fans do it.
06 Sep 2012 20:54:07
i reckon if rangers build the youth up, we will win the champions
eague within a decade. porto did it a few year ago with mainly home built squad. i think we will always have the bit between our teeth after the petty jealousys of others in scotland, it will give us a great resolve. and nefore u jump to disagree, if u were told 2years ago rangers would be in the third division, everyone would have said impossable. nothing in life is impossable
Your under 21s finished mid table last season,and you are talking about winning the cl.is that you sir david.
Is this David Icke .........DH
Pitty ill miss it thou iv booked a flight to the moon when the final is being played ... uch well maybe ill get to see highlights on my ipad 12
Never gonna happen as things stand there are roughly about a dozen teams in europe with a genuine chance of winning CPL, we will never be in that company.SDM tried and failed at some cost, the best we should aim for is the europa lge.
If Jim McColl Tom Hunter and the Stagecoach crew all chip in and buy Barcelona maybe...... loony tunes...... george
Try getting invited into the Next Gen Series first
Me smells another fishing expedition from the obsessed. If the OP of this thread is a Bear i am sincerely concerned for their mental health.
P.O.B.
Good post.like the guy says who would have thought porto wouldve won it, or we would be where we are now. a champions league win in ten youth building years is no more improbable than those things. cmon have some faith, all yea doubting thomases, or tims,or bears. positive thinking and all that
That has to be one of the daftest posts I have seen on here. If sevco win the CL I will strip naked through the St Enoch and same for you if they dont? Agree...
@9
then you are pretty safe then because i have searched Uefa pages and cant find any club called Sevco if you can point me to a team called Sevco i will gladly take you up on your bet
lochaber bear
Was it not trying to match and surpass Celtic that put Rangers in a grave?
Now Sevco, the reincarnation and their supporters want to go down that same road.
Chasing Lions in fatal!
P.o.b. you have a cheek calling us obsessed. you are on the celtic pages more than me and i am a celtic fan.
P.O.B is never off the Celtic page he's on there just as much as i'm on here!
DazzaBhoy
@12
And your point is what?
Are you suggesting that there is something wrong with going on a banter site?Last time i looked this was a free country where people can do what they want with their spare time.
The difference is i am not obsessed with all things Celtic,i go on for a bit of banter with one or two people that i know.What i do not do is over hype every single thing that comes out of Celtic park the way some of your lot do with our club.
An obsession that includes a strong desire to see our club driven to extinction. That's the difference mate,i don't give a toss about Celtic,but some of your mob are foaming at the mouth at everything relative to 150 Edmiston Drive.
P.O.B.
@14: that's the reason Celtic fans give for coming on here but you and others say it's obsession. You can't have it both ways or do you enjoy being such a hypocrite?
@7 Why do you alway's bring in the obsessed patter, is it only you who has the right to post on these page's, are you suggesting other Rangers supporter's have no right to be on here with their opinion,if it is something you don't agree with it must be the obsessed.Ffs grow up, other Ranger fan's have an opinion too and their mental health is ok. Suggest you go to a doctor and see about your obsession.
Tam
P.O.B us Celtic fans look at this page as they're is son much going on:-
Sevco fans slating Super Ally for not beating every team 10-0
EBT's
Playing crap in Div3
Buying players that they can't afford
Paying those players silly money.
Informing all your support that you were demoted!
Talking about boycotting everyone concerned with football in this country!
Whereas on the Celtic page were talkiing about
Champions League Football
SPL games
NextGen Series
Youngsters coming through!
So again why are you reading the Celtic site, if your not obsessed? I'm obsessed with this page as they stuff you and your bluenose mates come away with is incredible!

pmsl.boycott spl,sfa,tesco,irn bru,william hill,bbc,sun,anymore on the agenda??
Why would we boycott irn bru it's orange just like us lol
Timmy has a very selective memory when and as it suits him
this was back in april 2010 by joe o rourke when the para was really ripping out of them
Celtic fans have made a veiled threat to boycott away games in protest against the Scottish Football Association's disciplinary system.
The Scottish Professional Footballers' Association wants changes and has the backing of Celtic and their fans.
A group of supporters groups issued a statement threatening action.
"While we wouldn't think of doing anything which would affect Celtic financially, the same cannot be said of the other clubs. Be warned," it said.
JG
Yes celtic ,ps i was born in barrs buildin love the stuff lol doug t.s.o
Boycott **** all and start acting like men,,,,,,,,,oh we cant shop there,,,,,,we cant buy from there! You's sound like greeting wee girls.

listen guys how about puting or differences aside this weekend and get together and support scotland i will be .. shamrock
Who says all rangers fans are not supporting Scotland? I will always support my country no matter what. I won't turn my back on my country due to bitter little pathetic men in SFA / SPL. We will e back stronger than ever in 3 years
Jas
Op no chance. I've been to world cups with Scotland, abroad and Wembley and stood in 92,000 crowds at Hampden roaring Scotland on, waited for ages for the Hampden special from Central/MountFlorida and crammed into the carriages, and after Scotland scored gone home and blew my nose for a week to get the dust out when I stood in the Rangers end. I have nothing against the players but refuse to stand or sit beside so called fellow fans that threatened bhoycotts on their own clubs to further their aims.
Get those same fans to rouse up their own club support to go to Hampden or is 44,000 the best they can do?
I think we can all agree(celtic, the rangers,spl & sfa clubs and anyone who follows football) that levin is not the right man for the job. But that won't and shouldn't stop ppl cheering on their country cause they may wear different club tops, but they share one all season and ever tourny. Unite and put the bitterness aside, society is more then that and football.
I am a rangers fan and will never stop going to scotland matches. this is my nation and i am proud to be scottish. the haters can hate my club but tomorrow we come together
I could never stop supporting Scotland I don't care who pulls on the Scotland jersey club football goes out the window I would love to see Scotland in brazil I refuse to let my dislike for the sfa to turn me against my country
@2: how petty and narrow-minded. Are you including all the fans of lower league teams in your nonsensical reason for your boycott?
06 Sep 2012 17:48:17
Rangers won today in a bounce game against Falkirk with the captain scoring along with Stella and Kyle.
Absolutely fantastic! Award yourself another
wee stick on star.
Oh the elation! That squad that's being built for the SPL is coming along a treat!
Brilliant!
Ally is shaping us to be our best manager since erm Ally!
There's only one Ally! There's only ever been one!
What's with the sarcasm it ain't even banter ya person why are you lot so obsessed with a so called wee 3rd div club,do you share the same interests in Peterhead,Annan etc?I don't think so.
There was 14 guys and two dogs there . I think you'll find it's a world record crowd for a closed door game..........DH
Who were the two dogs ? lennon and malby lol doug t.s.o

motherwell to boycott rangers game wow no 50 fans what will we do what a laugh
Aye and Motherwell will still get half gate money, what a laugh!
Motherwell are very good at bhoycotting, just look at their home attendances, plenty stay away!
@3. Pity CG couldn't allow the fans in for free..surely then motherwell would get a percentage of nothing if thats the way their fans feel about a boycott. Why should they benefit from us.
Still with the current form.....my money is on the SPL team, irrelevant of how many motherwell fans turn up or how you treat your ticket options Motherwell have been playing proffesional teams in europe and the SPL.....whilst Sevco have been playing Elgin, Berwick and Peterhead!
DazzaBhoy
Pile in guys motherwell wil love it,, loadsamoney. or do you walk away. shamrock
Motherwell playing teams in Europe ? You mean making up numbers and getting pumped in Europe ?
@4 Yes you put your money their son, just like Hibs, Dundee, Kilmarnock and Ross County in the last round.
Sums your knowledge up of the SPHell professional standard.
Guess who was in the Champions League too.......Motherwell!. Lets hope it's a great game watched by a full crowd and the best team, irrelevant who it is, wins! Neither Motherwell or Sevco/NewCo/TheRangers worry the champs at the moment.
Barcelona do though!
DazzaBhoy (Champions2012-)
DazzaBhoy. How about sticking your money where your big sarcasm laden mouth is and pledging £50 quid to the RFFF if the Gers beat Motherwell?
You would maybe get a tad more respect,if you pay up lol.
P.O.B.
All for it P.O.B, i'll give the Ed my phone number and if/when Sevco win the £50 is yours, if not i'll expect you to pay up son.
DazzaBhoy
Good man D-B.
Either way mate the RFFF benefits,that'll do for me.
P.O.B.
I/when i win you will be giving me £50 cash. I wont be giving the RFFF any money to fight legal battles or lay grass.
DazzaBhoy
@9 Imagine anyone giving any money to that big fat useless Dingwall.You surely did'nt did you?
Lol. Backing out already Dazza? I knew you were all gub mate.
P.O.B.
If P.O.B thinks giving money to RFFF is helping Sevco or any other RFC recreation, he's obviously taking the p1ss! You'd be better off opening your window, taking out your wallet and keys, and flinging your wallet too ****!

So Broadfoot has found a home at Blackpool. Should be a good move for him. He'll probably play so well it'll be like "Why did we ever let him go?"
Well hes in the right place. Theres plenty of donkeys down that beach!
Actually the "home" in Blackpool he's found is on the beach carting kids around from May till September
Is this any way to treat one of your 'LEGENDS'
Was broadfoot not a CB?. if he plays in his natural position i think you will be saying that. why let him go as CB is prob your weakest position..............bhoywonder
@3. 'Broadfoot a legend', best laugh i've had today.
He will end up with egg on his face....
He might be playing in the EPL next year . A bit better than the Scottish Pawnbrokers Cup........DH
06 Sep 2012 13:20:33
If Boca's deal in Spain does fall through, and he comes back, does the fact that he is still our player mean he can play or will he have to be re-registered? As I understand we cannot register any players due to embargo.
Is this a serious question? I actually thought stevo was upto his usual mischief making when I read this lol.
TTG
He's not one of the only 22 players allowed to be registered with the SFA for div3 teams. Call up the SFA and ask.
I would never pretend too be a newco supporterTTG,,,stevo
06 Sep 2012 12:35:13
Why do people keep sayin we can't sign anyone till next Jan...? We have a year transfer ban not a year n a half....! So come next Sept 2nd we'll be able to bring in free transfers.....which is probably what we'd be aiming for anyway. Then come the Jan we could maybe make a decent signing or two...! Your thoughts ed? Can you confirm this.... Cheers mate keep up the good work
Big GL {Ed001's Note - that is correct, well the bit about free transfers, I can't guarantee you decent signings in the Jan!}
DUH! It's not a signing ban it's a registration ban.
Is it not free agent's not free transfers ? {Ed001's Note - yes, but free transfers usually means free agents, I took it to mean that anyway.}
Broadfoot ?
06 Sep 2012 11:09:48
Ah hear UEFA/ FIFA will uphold the integrity of the transfer rules and Bocanegra will return to Ibrox.
He will revert to his original contract and Green will have kittens.
Green will ask him to release Rangers from the contract and become a free agent.
Feel sorry for Boca. The guy has a chance of playing for his country in a World Cup in Brazil and tbh we all know he won't be there if he's in the 4th tier of Scottish football & that's no fault of his.
Hamish RITD
It seems that Boca's re-registration will not take place as gers have their full quota of
overage players thanks to Green's faux pas
in keeping ex players on books.FACT
Hope he does return as we are short in defence
Its his own fault for staying and showing no ambition.he should have left with the ones who valued their careers leonbhoy
3) He may return, but as the other posters are telling you he cant play! #Fail
DazzaBhoy
He'll pick up compensation from Green to walk away and negate his contract. He'll then have to pick up a team in USA.
I thought you can only terminate your contract if its done during the window he still cant sign for another club till next window so hell still pick up his cash {Ed001's Note - he can terminate his contract any time, he just can't sign for another club outside of that particular country's transfer window. The MLS could pick him up without a problem.}

Tosh McKinlay urges Rangers support to listen to Ally McCoist and support Scotland.
Not Whilst the S.F.A are controlled by Lawwell, Riley and Rod Petrie. Tosh you'd be better spending your time trying to persuade Celtic fans to support Scotland rather than the R.O.I.
As long as that tool Regan is having his strings pulled by the real power behind the throne at the SFA offices then we will not support anything to do with them - they are the same beast with two different heads.
Mate, I'm a Celtic fan and I've never cheered on ROI. I'm Scottish and support my country. Boycotting only makes people hate you more.
@1) well said mate, I'm a Rangers man and have nothing but love for Scotland. I also know loads of guys from both sides who follow Scotland. It's just a shame that the vocal minority always get the coverage as it sells papers/advertising. Scotland fans from Scottish club sides doesn't have the same shock value. I've got to the point that I seriously cringe when all the god save the queen starts at ibrox, and am sure a great number of Celtic fans feel the same way when they start the nonsense songs at parkhead. But as I say it's the ones who shout loudest who get heard.
1. Hate us more? Don't think that is possible, you lot and the rest of the SPL already 'nailed your colours to the post' in that regard. Your fans showed yourselves up in that regard by demanding that we were kept out of the SPL. You lot and the rest were going to Boycott games if you didn't get your way - remember. Boycotting only makes people hate you more? Funny how that only applies to us eh!
@3: just tar every fan of other clubs with the same brush then.
@ 4) rise above it mate, we have a team to support still. We need to accept that Murray white and the bank bent us over and done us (without even buying us a drink). But as the legend says Rangers then, Rangers now , Rangers forever. Be the bigger man , it will surprise you how much respect a bit of contrition buys us, especially when the fans were not to blame . Let's turn our ascent back to the SPL into one big party, and not give the haters anything to hate us for.
06 Sep 2012 10:42:44
Who's boycotting Motherewell game (tickets not TV)?
No one is, it's at ibrox. Get a fkn grip man
Dtp89
Who's boycotting Motherwell?
A few cretins from both sides.
Yeah get a grip man as OP says the games.at ibrox Rangers need the revenue Remember
Rangers then Rangers now Rangers forever
Motherwell fans are apparently boycotting the game but i thought they had been boycotting their own home games all season.
DJ
4) Elgin had more fans than well bring normally, wouldn't even notice any boycott
Motherwell fans not welcome at ibrox anyway, was just wondering if we draw Celtic at porkhead in the next round is it a full boycott? We would look pretty stupid if we went to that game when we were supposed to be boycotting games.
Motherwell are incapable of a boycott as they don't have any fans. Heard they had two supporters and a dog at the weekend match and the dog was only there because his owner was one of the players
To #6. Good point. Boycotting games you canna be assed about is poor. Boycott CP if you are the people. That is assuming you get past The Motherwell and they dig out the dodgy baws for the next round. (also assuming we don't get pumped - never count your chickens).
Shuggy
If you somehow survive 'well and have the honour of a div 3 club visiting the champions, you should boycott. Celtic will easily sell the tickets. If i were you i would boycott the tv, radio, internet and papers too such is the hiding that will be dished out. Take a damned good look at your team.
06 Sep 2012 03:09:48
Here is just another one of Ally's managerial, man management masterstrokes.
Why was Bocanegra made captain this season, when he was always going to be leaving,, and even if he wasn't....Big Jig should surely have been the captain anyway, right from the off this season.
Captain is hanging out of the big man, especially at this time.
Why Boca was made captain before him is beyond me...Ally is a pure t** at times.
IMHO I think it was because big Jig will be used mainly up front and Boca is already Captain of America. Most managers prefer either a centre half or centre mid to be captain. I did think that Jog would have been the obvious choice as well though and delighted for him that he now is the Rangers captain.
Mr Sporting Integrity
Last season Boca was vice captain, what a way to reward his loyalty at transferring over by stripping him of that, given the captain left. He was made captain out of respect.

Seb Coe is said to be insistent that he is addressed using his full Christian name Sebastian , it seems he is sick to death of people asking him if he has anything to do with some wee Scottish 3rd Division outfit ....
Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaa magic timmy
The obsession goes on and on, it's great to see, keep it up.
That Sev Co did a great job wae the Olympics so he did.
See all the muppets who have agreed it just goes to show how obsessed you lot are 19agrees all Celtic fans 6 disagrees all rangers fans honestly you love a rangers site more than rangers fans do
Wasn't even very funy when I heard it 3 months ago.
Some wee Scottish 3rd Division outfit? Must say a lot for the rest of Scottish football is this wee team consistently gets the biggest home crowd in Scotland and in the top 3 attendances in Britain.
Your Team has only played a handful of games already... This you looking for the most successful crowd award since the 'most successful team in the world' is about to be put to bed?
Lenny
Just looked up banter in an online dictionary. There's the conventional definition then a new Rangers fans definitions which says
'Banter (noun): obsession.'
"we just cant get enough" of this site.its funnier than the three stooges
31 agrees says it all, every one of them celtic fans haha, concentrate on your own team ffs! and we still are the most successful team in the world timmys!
