Use our rumours form to send us rangers transfer rumours.

There are still 7 games to play for our players to prove themselves along with training. With a good set of youngsters coming through and sound signings over the next few seasons we will take the title back. People need some patience and faith. Too many nay sayer "fans" for my liking. Things are on the up. Despite league position we are moving forward. Please have faith fellow bears.

True fed up with this negativity we will come good maybe not the now but we will keep believing we have been in a bad place the past few years but we will get there

People are entitled to put their opinion across and if you don't like it tough
09 Apr 2017 04:32:28
a change my mind by the day.
we have the passion from the stands however a can't see this on the field or in the boardroom?
we will get miniumum second next year.
does anyone know if we have money to spend?
do we need to pay back stuff from the past or do we have a fresh start? s all very complicated and I just want it to get back to football and none a the other carry on.

Everything is a bit weird and up in the air. Budget manager, countless countless cases with ashley, a poor squad.
Needs proper investment as does the stadium.
Then even if 3rd is secured, what about europe? There are criteria including one about audited accounts which haven't been done.
09 Apr 2017 19:01:16
Can see the passion from the manager and he'll demand it from the team . Anyone who doesn't show commitment won't be there is the way Pedro is coming across . That's the mentality we need. Great result ground out today .
08 Apr 2017 17:11:49
Just had a look at the league table my god it's scary st Johnstone only 3 points behind us
win tomorrow is a must it's more about keeping 3rd than catching second now.
08 Apr 2017 20:27:43
Scary my arxx get a life usual negativity mob
08 Apr 2017 20:57:13
I'm not usually negative I've maintes we would get second but after the last two draws it's time toogrt real about it all
08 Apr 2017 22:05:36
It is scary! St Johnstone should be no where near us in the league yet there is a real risk that they could finish ahead of and the only reason is the total incompetence and lack of fight in this bunch of players.
They should do out there to win every remaining game this season with a win at all costs mentality, die for the jersey and do what ever it takes to win, no prisoners taken!
08 Apr 2017 23:20:58
It's embarrassing 38 points behind Celtic and 12 points behind Aberdeen .
09 Apr 2017 16:00:32
Am i only one that thinks we took 2 steps forward latterly under murty and 100 steps back under pedro? Fair enough give new guy a chance but every game he has done something more bizzare than last. V hamilton and well he gave indepth analysis to press how they will play. Why? U keep than in house surely. I don't need 2 mention killie pre match farce but aberdeen why does he announce their team.
Surely if you scout and study a team u don't announce the findings to the press. Mw wasn't the answer but how can pc be when he explains pre match every game how opposition will play. I wrote off the feltic brothers stuff but his weird bizzare odd and peculiar leakings to the press are not befitting

I hope these rumours about unhappiness for training on a Wednesday aren't true! I break my back 6 days a week for £20k a year as I'm sure most people on here do. They earn that in 2-3 weeks so they should agree to whatever hours or food they are told to eat!
08 Apr 2017 13:03:55
Absolutely correct Matthew 54
Modern day players in the big clubs couldn't do a hard days work like most fans, their in for 3 maybe 4,hours a day get breakfast and lunch get everything done for them then sent home. years ago managers would take teams around the industrial belt to show them what hard work was today it's all about the money and the easy llife.
08 Apr 2017 14:38:07
Not just the day off the players are moaning about its more about PC's training methods. Players are saying they are confused and are not getting the managers direction. let's hope Monster Munch crisps are not taking off the menu or the players could stage a revolt :o) .
08 Apr 2017 17:30:57
To be fair to PC, it doesn't take much to confuse our current squad.
08 Apr 2017 20:02:18
If they do nt like the new way of training well tuff get on with it maybe that's the problem too easy if they can't do there best in traini g they can go
08 Apr 2017 20:35:38
They are in a job that a lot of people would love so if they don't like it sod off cause we only want guys who know what it is al about we will get there
08 Apr 2017 22:08:00
A bunch of lazy, players of limited ability that lack team spirit and fighting spirit and simply don't show enough commitment. Either they want to play for Rangers or they don't and if they don't then they can bugger off!
08 Apr 2017 21:44:19
Maybe Pedro isn't putting his words into a nutshell, it can happen with people not even just foreigners, maybe the 3rd assistant will assist with this always assuming he understands what Pedro's getting at.
08 Apr 2017 22:16:06
Tell us the name of one single player who has complained about the new manager. Just one. This is a load of nonsense dreamed up by wee boys for their own giggly amusement.
08 Apr 2017 22:47:37
Eh, no it's not, pal. Trouble at mill I tell you and everybody on here knows I am positive about Rangers 99 percent of the time. I am very worried and believe St Johnstone have a real chance of nicking third place. As for a cup final - I'd love to see it happen. Realistically, afraid not.
09 Apr 2017 08:43:02
Boyd has come out in the papers and said there is unrest. I'm sure he knows a lot of people at the club so there might be some truth in it
09 Apr 2017 10:38:04
The players that Boyd will know I'll be wasters like Halliday. Boyd says that the training is too tough. shame, they are bloody lucky that Jock Wallace is it there, if he was they would no what tough is all about!
Just like Boyd they are a lazy bunch! If they were winning the league I might be sympathetic but they will be lucky if they finish third!

How do you know what players Boyd knows? Think it's incredible your questioning a guy who has recently played for us and probably knows a lot of the current squad. As for your cheap shot about him think you'll find he scored a lot of goals for us and was much better than any of the current so called strikers at the club just now
09 Apr 2017 16:08:34
Going by big Boydy's column today the rumours of unrest could be true
08 Apr 2017 11:41:21
Ranieri changed the menu in his time at Leicester from chicken burgers and potato wedges to sweet potato and pasta but Foxes defender Danny Simpson, 30, said: "I understand his point but the lads liked what we were used to. "
Not that I think any of our "whingey player" rumours are true, but if they were moaning about regime changes, dietary requirement changes, training on Wednesday or team selection I would hope that they are shown their wage slips!
After they have been reminded of how much they earn, point out that the lads outperforming them in other teams are doing better for less than half the cost in most cases.
Hoping for a better performance against Aberdeen, Pedro will definitely have formed some opinions on certain lads by this point and I can't imagine any (other than Foderingham) being positive based on performance.
You switch on at work if a new boss comes in to the office to sort out results, why is this not yet happening at Rangers?
08 Apr 2017 21:45:37
Do you think he still believes he has the best squad and the richest team in the league 😋😁
08 Apr 2017 22:53:31
You obviously haven't seen any interviews, he has said that and essentially gone on to say that he has to fight for the players the way he wants them to fight for the team.
The whole "best team" thing is like (anyone who is a parent will tell you) when you hear a guy say their child is the best in their class, it builds the child's confidence.
Yes, I am saying our players have the mental fragility of children.
I don't remember him saying that we are the richest team, he rightly stated that we are the biggest club in Scotland though. 👍
09 Apr 2017 16:32:56
Rafbob, can you honestly say a manager calling your squad the best in the league when it's obviously not the best thing to do? Don't you think they were trainors words he was speaking, to me it just shows the disrespect shown to the supporters from your club.
08 Apr 2017 00:29:47
Tell you what why not go further and suggest that 'o'halloran' can 'get at defences' as he runs through the stand away home (imposter) we need to stand united chaps. to appreciate the sweet, you have to appreciate the sour.
08 Apr 2017 07:03:40
Djkorjat I concur. Why are some slating manager already I don't understand but not surprised. I feel he's transparent with us so far and players will just need to get used to his style.
