Evening.
Two part post, one about the colts game in Inverness, how quick do we expect our allocation to sell out, if it hasn't already as the tickets went on sale on monday, hoping to take my two nieces up.
Second, Celtic moaning about the Christie action are the same ones who didn't say peep when Stevie McLean from hearts got banned for the same action on their forward last year.
Its always the victim. The SFA are inconsitant and have been for year, inconsjtantly garbage may i add for all clubs.
08 Jan 2020 22:58:03
Kri55. , i was just looking about on our news now site, lennon has said the s.f.a should apologies to chrisstie, for the ban and it should be lifted. what's lennon smoking in dubia?
09 Jan 2020 06:04:04
Is Christie not injured anyway?
09 Jan 2020 10:31:25
The SFA and Clancy should be apologising to Rangers for the worst Refereeing performance I've ever seen. A goal that should never have stood, proon booked twice, wasn't sent off, 3 incidents of shirt pulling in the box, 2 for Rangers and one for Celtic, pen given to Celtic, juillandrews last defender tackle, Red Card, Boli, pull back second booking Red card, Christie's todger pull seconded booking red card.
Are that mob having a laugh. can't believe they have the nerve to claim injustice and corruption. Total embarrassment of a club and fan group.
09 Jan 2020 10:55:53
As we all know the refereeing standard in Scotland is muck. My point being Celtic only get upset when it suits them and why no one has brought the point about Steve McLean to them is crazy.
09 Jan 2020 17:43:04
The stuck, its aw wan mate, an appoligy, wiether he would miss the game thru injury or not, he kicks anything that moves on the field, i honestly think christtie thinks every team in ourbleague are scared from them, shower of feckin trumpets mate, each and every one of them mate, imo.
09 Jan 2020 18:00:44
It is all about them casting this up at every opportunity. Christie is injured anyway so what difference does it make. I'm telling you guys, this guy is being fitted right now for a straight jacket.
08 Jan 2020 19:30:59
Not a rumour lads, just a thought. I've read on here quute a lot that many people agree that right wing is where we need to improve. I was talking to a pal who supports Liverpool and he threw a name into the hat that i hadnt thought about or heard about for a while. Jordon Ibe from Bournemouth. He said he thought his contract was up this summer and was available on a free transfer. I don't know that for certain but at 24 years of age and never having trully fulfilled his potential is this a player if available that would excite the fans? I think this is the sort of signing we should be looking at on a free with the potential to develop and move on for huge profits.
Like I said lads, just a thought but i'm not sure about his contract situation so it might be a non starter.
08 Jan 2020 22:33:56
I am sure he was linked to the Tims during the summer. Did he not attend one of their games? Maybe I am thinking of someone else?
09 Jan 2020 07:21:51
I have watched a lot of Cherries games he has played in, and he didn't look impressive. 15m I think he cost and isn't even warming their bench, stay clear.
09 Jan 2020 11:05:48
No better than Barker or Jones, bang average.
08 Jan 2020 18:54:15
It would be fantastic if Kilmarnock could do Celtic and Rangers go 4 points top after the first week back that would severely hurt Celtic.
08 Jan 2020 22:07:33
How could we go 4 points clear as we don't even know when we play our game in hand.
08 Jan 2020 22:54:19
We could only go 1 point ahead.
08 Jan 2020 23:40:03
Eh. What and how.
09 Jan 2020 01:09:15
Andy09., that's impossible mate, don't think your calculator is working properly, check the batteries, lol.
09 Jan 2020 04:12:45
Heard we poss don't play game in hand till march.
09 Jan 2020 09:18:16
Playing the game in hand on Jan 29th?
09 Jan 2020 14:15:16
Rob 1910 we play Ross county 29/ 1. Celtic also play same night.
The game still outstanding is st Johnstone which is likely to be March.
09 Jan 2020 20:48:59
Cheers John thanks for clearing that up I thought the game in hand was Ross county at home. Just need to keep plugging away til march win the game in hand AND beat them at Ibrox simples.
10 Jan 2020 00:00:50
fantastic is always good.
08 Jan 2020 18:06:11
Gerrard has a dig at Celtic saying ‘no point in getting the violins out’ over contentious decisions! This is after they bring up incidents from the game a year ago in relation to the current Christie incident.
Don’t you just love the man. 🔴⚪️🔵.
08 Jan 2020 15:08:12
May l thank you for the warm welcome to this party called Glasgow Rangers.
It has been a few decades since l was a S/ T holder due to work patterns. I remember going pre Souness era.
I would really love to surprise my son and grandson with tickets for the Bragga game. General sale starts 6th Feb.
Ed can l ask if you or any of our fellow poster are aware if the tickets will go on sale just after midnight 5th into 6th or if it will be at start of business on the 6th
Thanks.

Gger
I think it is start of business but usually the system is a shambles and shuts down after 5 minutes. I know it may be difficult but if you or a pal can't get to the portacabin and queue for a bit it might be better for the nerves.
09 Jan 2020 17:20:50
Thanks DEEB,
Might just take your advice and head over.
08 Jan 2020 13:58:16
What does everybody think about transfer fees not being disclosed. Personall it annoys out of me. We pay our hard earned money that keeps the club going. Thoughts please.
08 Jan 2020 14:21:00
Sometimes its part of the contract.
08 Jan 2020 16:29:06
Personally not bothered as we would have pages of posts saying too much not enough etc but see your point 👍.
08 Jan 2020 18:36:43
Think if that's all the winds you up about football then you are doing ok Jason mate!
08 Jan 2020 20:44:34
Jason, transfer fees is an issue totally out our control. Tic are plc and as a public company have to placate Tims around globe by releasing transfer data. We are not. We are owned/ operated by a total of eight or so majority shareholders. We do have a minority of penny shareholders worldwide but this is nothing. It allows supporters to feel part of club but totals 2% of share issue. This lessens even more if Gers undertake share issue. Finally, if current boardmembers decide releasing transfer dealing data is contrary to clubs best interests they simply won't. Hope helps.
08 Jan 2020 22:56:16
Miller, Sinclair just went for an u disclosed fee.
08 Jan 2020 12:28:50
Must say being a Rangers fan these last few years hasn't been an easy feat, i remember having my season ticket in the 3rd division and going to watch us play part time teams in the freezing cold and at times the football being absolutely dire. It's been a journey to say the least and there is a long road ahead but i think we are close to being the formidable team we once were. This season so far has been tremendous and i know myself and probably many others are starting to really get that confidence back. Gerrard has brought us on leaps and bounds, i always said if Gerrard wins nothing year one we need to fully back and commit to our manager as i believe he will be the one to bring back our glory days.
08 Jan 2020 12:09:25
Stevie got the manager of the month award. Finally a bit of recognition for all the hard work. 👏.
09 Jan 2020 22:42:13
C of ibrox, stevie who, lol, they had to give him it, or they would have got slaughtered'it would have been the wee guy with the split lip that got it, had they beaten us, but hopefully we've now got there number, pal.
08 Jan 2020 00:18:39
Does anyone know how much we got for grezda?
08 Jan 2020 12:09:00
£27.80.
08 Jan 2020 12:30:17
Word I heard we got him for 1.5 million, not the two we owed. We had a final payment 400 k due soon, it was written off. We then added a 15% sell on clause.
Most important I was talking to a guy out here said we were paying 12k a week.
That equals 1.8 million in wages saved.
We have to get deals somehow done that helps us if guys not playing.
Same guy said we first planned to sack him for spitting but Wilson said he would get us some money.
08 Jan 2020 12:40:39
£1690 pounds exactly 😭🇬🇧.
08 Jan 2020 12:45:30
At 1st we where offered gingie bottles (bottle being something he didn't have) but Rangers had to tell the club, we nolonger get 10p on them.
08 Jan 2020 12:58:59
Dont know we got anything bar the no payment of last installment, and a decent sell on %. Time may tell otherwise tho. Saving in a burst wage is payment enough.
08 Jan 2020 15:02:13
We had close to 500k still to paid which was written off and apparently he was on 8k pw. he came very well thought of and here’s hoping he fullfills his early potential and we get some dosh back via sell on clause.
08 Jan 2020 15:18:58
Strut tend to agree, but if we did not pay last payment that is a bonus.
08 Jan 2020 18:31:49
Scotty 123 was around 13-14 k a week.
09 Jan 2020 16:27:04
We didn't pay the final instalment of his transfer, that was the 'fee' we got. As Struth says, he was allegedly on £8k a week, not even close to £1.8m in wages, but a decent saving nonetheless. He's gone, he's now costing us nothing.
