Total mince!!

From possibly the "best" game of the season to a contender for the worst no doubt!

You learn from your mistakes.

Better now than in the play-offs.

MacCall has certainly learned a lot about the players & systems he can "trust"!

Agree2 Disagree0

10 Apr 2015 09:13:07
This result has happened more than once this season and surely it's no real surprise. This squad needs gutted out and most of the players need to go. Never mind just getting rid of the out of contract players we need to get rid of Clark, Zaliukis and Crawford.

I'm totally numb after hearing tonight that mike ashley owns the rangers crest badge and broxi bear etc,social media reports now saying ashley will charge rangers big money to use our own badge on our replica kits,this is mind blowing and shocking and I just wonder what else ashley owns,I dread to think,it wouldn't surprise me one little bit if he actually owns ibrox,our rangers badge is sacred and he now owns the rights for it,we're totally goosed and can't do much about it!

Believable3 Unbelievable3

09 Apr 2015 23:44:14
Ashley is a money grabber nothing more and if he think he is going
get another penny from king etc he is deluded this deal surely can not hold up in a court of law this is so biased towards mike Ashley not for the good of the company or club stitched up big time and he is laughing at us yet still rangers fans still buying from his shops makes no sense every man to there self though what I find even worse
tho is that our new board didn't have a clue about this till to night
what are the doing sitting twiddling there thumbs hoping for promotion I would urge them to get this thing sorted with Ashley for once and for all and tell the fans Ashley needs stopped now not down line actions speak louder than words and its been all words so far and no actions

Agree1 Disagree0

10 Apr 2015 06:14:51
Surely the deal to own are trade marks would have to have been announced to the aim stock exchange at the time the deal was done! How come were only finding out now? U would of thought the new board would of come across it before now and not have had to find out through social media reports,

Agree1 Disagree2

10 Apr 2015 08:27:58
The board will take it to court and try to get it rescinded or whatever.

Agree0 Disagree0

10 Apr 2015 08:48:05
As I understand it ownership of the intellectual property was a condition of the Β£5m loan. Once that is paid back the IP is returned.

Agree0 Disagree2

10 Apr 2015 15:40:34
Not correct, the date son the transfers to his ownership are all from 2012.

Agree0 Disagree0

11 Apr 2015 12:16:03
Date of transfer February 2015 just as old board were thrown out.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Apr 2015 22:50:13
all season its been the players fault then the managers fault, worst rangers fans on here. So now that mccoist is away we can start blaming the team. Pathetic. The team isn't good enough under any manager, the team doesn't gel and there are no tactics. Mcall, Mcdowall and Mccoist don't have the balls to drop players and play youth. fact.

Believable1 Unbelievable2

10 Apr 2015 07:36:38
Where you saying that after Sundays match about mccall! Who would you like mccall to drop, qos scored with there first shot on target and there 2nd after 15seconds in second half so any team talk Went out the window, there was an overreaction after Sundays match and there is one after last night result, I still think mccall will get us up but there's going to be setbacks along the way

Agree1 Disagree1

10 Apr 2015 08:28:56
Why would McCall drop any the players after winning 3 games? He is giving youth a chance and then people come on here moaning about Crawford getting on, rangers fans are the most fickle in the world!

Agree1 Disagree1

10 Apr 2015 09:16:14
CeeXXX

Can you please explain why would you give Crawford a chance when he is clearly not good enoug? This guy struggled at Morton when he was on loan so why would he do anything at Rangers? There isn't any point bringing on a young player if he is rank rotten and that's exactly what Crawford is.

Agree0 Disagree1

10 Apr 2015 11:15:46
He came of on Sunday and played well. Maybe McCall sees him everyday in training and thinks he will be a descent player.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Apr 2015 22:22:17
Utter utter mince, work ethic poor, interest, passion and drive totally non existent.
it beats me why these guys can pull on our famous shirt and think its ok to perform like a hung over average pub team. Genuinely don't think they like the surface down here, however, I am clutching at straws a little, don't want to give them any excuses, a good professional footballer should be able to adapt their style of play to any surface just as they would on a standard grass park in adverse winter conditions, back to work tomorrow for a long day of awful slagging and endless ear bashing. cheers Gers

Believable4 Unbelievable1

09 Apr 2015 21:56:55
just remember this - the only reason McCall HAD to change the formation was IDIOTIC THUGGERY from McCulloch against Hearts.

Believable2 Unbelievable3

09 Apr 2015 22:14:59
Would have been worse had he played.

Agree2 Disagree1

09 Apr 2015 21:54:03
Baffled. Where was Sheils?. Hope we don't have Jig groupies saying we lost because he wasn't playing. would have been 6-0.imagine that was first leg of playoff, and they were coming to Ibrox 3-0 up. no idea what McCall does now. Think we should revert to 3-5-2 to at least give us a chance in playoffs.but with these players after that pumping.not optimistic.

Believable3 Unbelievable1

10 Apr 2015 08:30:12
451 every match we play we are outnumbered in the middle and don't have the energy to make up for it. Hate seeing vuckic out wide waste of a player get him in behind the striker!

Agree0 Disagree1

09 Apr 2015 21:46:31
well that was a reality check maybe some off the fans that keep saying we should keep some of these players should rethink this idea
these players are not good enough plain
and simple play like that in playoffs and kiss good buy to our chances out numbered in midfield numerous corners and nothing playoffs ain't that far off hope this was a blip none of players deserve to wear that jersey next season to top it all of tonite

Believable2 Unbelievable0

09 Apr 2015 21:56:15
A reality check? We have been having reality checks all season and 1 or 10 blips. Your right though the players aren't good enough and tbh we should trying to get rid of most of the players in the squad. Zaliukis is shocking, Clark is a striker who can't score and once again Law hid most of the game

Agree1 Disagree0

09 Apr 2015 22:30:04
the way I see it mate this squad of players are not good enough
i just trying put it polite cause no doubt some folk will defend them I new there was a result like this just round the corner waiting on us dropping sheilds for temps was a mistake young Murdoch is average at best no where near good enough to replace Lewis team needs big investment so I hope king and that get to work on sorting that asap along with sorting out the big man stealing our badge of us feeling furious towards him ain't the word its beyond believe

Agree1 Disagree0

09 Apr 2015 21:16:34
Canny cope with wee guys with pace ,why did McCall change it ,won three games & they thought they were world beaters

Believable4 Unbelievable1

09 Apr 2015 21:22:34
Well Hearts had won the league and sat back and made us look good, more a fear of losing players to our style of play again. Hibs, well I feel the term coined from last year says it all from the bottle crashers, they are "doing a Hibs". So our 3 game run against not so great opposition was never anything to sing from the rooftops about as many here and around town did do.

All we can do now is hope we finish 2nd and avoid QOS in playoffs.

Agree1 Disagree0

09 Apr 2015 21:24:44
Worst I've ever seen Wallace play. at fault for first two goals.but 14 corners without a Rangers head getting to one?shocking.

Agree4 Disagree0

09 Apr 2015 21:29:11
Utter pish!

Agree1 Disagree0

09 Apr 2015 21:39:36
Not a excuse for that shocking performance but why does negative story's about rangers have to break right before crucial games? Surely this could have been left till tomorrow morning.

Agree1 Disagree0

09 Apr 2015 21:42:27
Cannot believe McCall brought on Crawford. This guy couldn't get a game at Morton earlier in the season and his only contribution tonight was to cost 3rd goal. Taken apart tonight with most players not having a clue what to do. It was like watching one of McCoists or McDowall's teams

Agree2 Disagree0

09 Apr 2015 21:46:53
Cheer up LANI! Ye need tae have a heid like wee griffiths to score a header! Mind him wae the stupid lookin coupon haha! Looks like wee commons was spot on about use being nowhere near the champs!! But we knew that anyway πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†

Agree3 Disagree0

09 Apr 2015 22:07:30
See,we will better,but Griffith will always look like a failed head transplant. And by the time next season kicks off,Commons will be 17 stone. one more
tainted title won't bother us too much. now back to the nursery, nearly bed time.

Agree1 Disagree2

09 Apr 2015 22:09:11
Life is one big learning curve. McCall will know not to do that again

Agree0 Disagree0

10 Apr 2015 08:54:08
Hahahaha! LANI ave already told u! We'll take our funny lookin overweight treble winners any day of the week! And u know if commons didn't weigh so much he couldn't have got the power to stick the ball in the top pokie against use!! Haha.and by the time I'm out of nursery we'll be easing nicely to 7 in a row! πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†

Agree2 Disagree0

10 Apr 2015 09:54:43
Hey mate judging by the grammar in your posts you'll never get out of nursery. and try and reply a bit quicker next time,know it takes a while for you to come up with your ,er,humorous replies.And even if you win 7 in a row you'll still be behind us. In fact you',all have to win 6 trebles in a row to catch us overall, and that is only if we win nothing in same period. Shows how far behind you really are.

Agree0 Disagree1

10 Apr 2015 11:21:51
We don't need to be able to spell! As long as I can read I'll be fine! Means I won't miss out in reading about 4 in a row and the 2 cups we've won! Or maybe I'll read about Ronnie being manager of the year or one of our players of the year! πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜† and catch up on what? The 3rd and 2nd division titles USE have won? Or the ramsdens cup victory?? Oh no wait a minute USE didnae win that did u! πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†

Agree3 Disagree0

10 Apr 2015 12:36:16
Take your time LANI,u'll think of sumthin eventually!πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Agree0 Disagree0

10 Apr 2015 13:10:22
other things in my life pal, unlike you obviously.worked out that it takes you so long to post a reply because you're spell checking everything. and I am possessed of the gift of spontaneous wit. whereas you are just. possessed. and 4 in a row without us there? who'll remember that except you and your fellow fantasists. Ad we wouldn't need to include any lower division Trophies to be so far ahead of your Kerrydale Catalans. you won't win 6 trebles Dhanny boy. taken you 4 seasons without us to get close to ONE!Try reading up on Scottish Football , and you'll see who is the most successful club in our history. don't worry.plenty of pictures to save you getting bored. and even an old daguerreotype (look it up, broaden your mind) of the auld men winning the Big Wan, as you lot call it , to keep you happy. But we will bow to Sellik on their biggest record, one we will never match, getting papped out of Europe 3 times in one season. credit to you. and keep using the wee emoticons, much more interesting than the Janet and John stuff you(just about) type.

Agree0 Disagree1

09 Apr 2015 21:11:08
looks like "back down to earth with an almighty bump" in Dumfries then .

No bite up frony, Miller and Clark too similar. Still fragile in defence. Why can we not put a few games together these days?
Still think we will struggle in the play-offs and I think Hibs will go on to play Motherwell. The latter will hang on to their Prem status and Hibs will stay in championship along with our no hopers

Believable1 Unbelievable0

09 Apr 2015 21:17:00
as I posted earlier on I game at a time

Agree1 Disagree1

09 Apr 2015 21:44:47
Clark the striker who runs about but achieves nothing and has no goal threat. Don't know how many times he is going to start and not score. He is clearly not good enough at this level and needs to be moved on close season

Agree3 Disagree0

09 Apr 2015 21:03:16
Back to the drawingboard tonight I think. Wallace having a nightmare.

Believable1 Unbelievable0

09 Apr 2015 21:13:01
Why go out 442? Totally outnumbered in midfield. Get the boy Reilly signed lol.
Why can't we beat QOS?

GUTTED isn't the word.

Agree1 Disagree0

09 Apr 2015 21:02:17
Wallace playing like an alien. woeful. Templeton been baws as well. inexplicable. no blaming the fecking pitch please. Being overrun, outfought, passed off pitch. wtf is going on?

Believable3 Unbelievable0

09 Apr 2015 15:43:05
Rather quiet on here today, anyway, Scotland have went up a few places, well done lads. we are actually starting to be slightly feared by nations now.

09 Apr 2015 18:36:19
Which nations?

Agree4 Disagree2

09 Apr 2015 18:37:18
Well said onlyshowaround, why would folk either not like or more's the point disagree with that? We're not brilliant but we're not a bad team at all and the rankings confirm it.

I like your commitment Bankie, some of these players are a little unrealistic, but there are a few that we could take, although I believe it's true they aren't allowed to take your list as you aren't an agent, some company law bull.

09 Apr 2015 16:09:50
Matelot,I've forgotten more about rangers & football in general than you will ever know my friend,trust me on that,you remind me a bit like celtic as they're obsessed by rangers whereas you're obsessed by me,you can't get me out of your head,obsession & jealously are both terrible things!

Hearing tonight that former rangers captain & club legend barry ferguson has retired from playing football,I rated baz as one of the best scottish midfielders that I've seen playing,barry was a terrific rangers captain & midfielder who completely dominated the midfield by having a tremendous knack of controlling the tempo of a game,I've witnessed barry's rangers career from start to finish and can remember his first team sub appearance at tynecastle against hearts in 1997,in my opinion he was without question the best rangers,scottish midfielder of the modern era, I would like to take this opportunity in wishing baz all the very best in his retirement from playing and hope he does well as now just being the clyde manager,thanks for the memories, you were different class barry!

Believable7 Unbelievable8

09 Apr 2015 07:45:50
Up there with the greats definitely. A better Scottish midfielder during his time? None.
Very nice man met him and big boab Many a time.

Agree2 Disagree2

09 Apr 2015 08:14:33
unfortunetly his antics off field were not as good as his performances on the field but however a good footballer

Agree2 Disagree0

09 Apr 2015 10:16:36
Good, not great,IMO.Albertz more gifted,Van Bronkhorst more mobile. Didn't score enough goals(bar one season) for me.Always felt he struggled to match tempo of pacier opposition mid fields. and "Squerr baw Barry"was sometimes an accurate nickname. Agree with Big Will about immature off field stuff.not befitting a so called legend. Very good player yes,but not a top line legend IMO.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Apr 2015 11:01:17
Good player,nothing exceptional,a good leader on the pitch,but a bit of a ned off it in his younger days.Never got forward enough for me,but a good Rangers man.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Apr 2015 12:20:45
Many fond memories of Barry on the field and Walter should really have brought him into the team earlier. Went off him a bit after the PLG days but wish him all the best in the future. We all make mistakes after all.

As to how good a player he was, well I also saw him at Wembley in 1999 against England in the Euro qualifier and he certainly looked classier that night than the likes of Beckham, an outstanding performance against very talented opposition.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Apr 2015 12:38:56
I thought Barry was a brilliant player. Will never forget his performance and incredible free kick against that lot in the Scottish Cup Final when Lovenkrands scored the winner. Barry was different class that day. I've no doubts he was one of our greatest ever midfielders

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Apr 2015 15:43:50
Another EBT that ows the club millions

Agree0 Disagree1

09 Apr 2015 16:04:19
How do you make that out? Weren't the EBT'S cleared by the biggest court in the land?

Agree1 Disagree0

09 Apr 2015 16:12:15
Don't you concern your wee heid with that

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Apr 2015 19:19:07
He is a club legend, no doubt about it, a few mistakes off the pitch nobody is perfect. The boy dreamed of playing for rangers his full life and ended up captain, ohh Barry Barry!

Agree0 Disagree0

10 Apr 2015 11:20:31
"Weren't the EBT'S cleared by the biggest court in the land?"

Well not exactly. The final judgement from the FFT was that in the majority of cases there was no tax liability, but there was on a small number. As far as I'm aware, it was never made public which EBTs tax was due on.

Agree0 Disagree0
