I see a post about Rangers close to being another club like the Sheep and Hearts. It was iron.
That is exactly where we are as a club now we aren't close to being we are one. Some fans may not like that but that's what we are and I honestly don't know how we get ourselves out of this mess.

Absolutely đ¯ agree. We're finished and never getting back to regular titles.

I wouldn't be spending anymore big money on this transfer window? Maybe we need to right this season off and blood some youngsters in. âī¸

I wrote a longer post that's now up on the discussions page. It might not be popular but I'm not bothered. 4/5 good players don't fix this mess.

I also said this to atm. We are no more than St Mirren with a big budget in Scottish terms. The 49ers are killing our club, they have 0 football intelligence.

100%, Hearts are arguably better than us just now. I don't think we'll take 7 points of either this season (assuming we make top 6).

Season probably is a write off, but I'd certainly be trying to sign some quality, or do we wait till next season and have to get 5/6 quality players. Hope they get off to a flyer, get them now, get them used to playing with each other, that way we possibly might see some cohesion.

The 49ers hardly get any criticism on these pages. Would not surprise me if they are looking for a way out of the club. đĄ

If the 49ers didn't come in, we would have had another liquidation, and that's the brutal truth. We were light years behind Celtic. We need to give the team a chance and stick with someone. When we eventually win, if we do, at least we have a spine of winners. But it is troubling.

Would you give any more money to McInnes or the current recruitment team, BB4?
14 Aug 2026 15:56:20
We are one of the poorest run football clubs in the league. This isn't something new, and has been like this for many years, but right now, it's even worse.
14 Aug 2026 16:00:33
We, as supporters, absolutely don't rate our recruitment team, and surely our owners have to bin them and go and get a very good recruitment team and scouting team, and can't allow anymore wasted money on any new signings this window by Purdy and Thelwell, as much as this hurts us at this moment in time.
âšī¸ We have to take that decision and hit now, to hopefully employ a very good recruitment team moving forward for future transfer windows. đ¤

Walter, if we don't rate McInnes. Should he also be sacked?
We as a fan base don't like rating any player, should we sack them as well?
Problem we have is Purdy and Thelwell have contracts, one earns massive money and has just under three years left on the deal, it would cost us a fortune. But what option do we have?

Watched the game last night and the only positive was Yokota. The rest were a bomb scare. We need a complete new defense, mid field and forward line. We were so disconnected, it was criminal, and we have carried on this total indecision. We were taking 10 passes to get up the park, they were taking 3. We were passing when we should have been shooting, and shooting when we should have been passing. In saying that, we struggled to get 4 yard passes right, and as for the half time sub, I am still baffled. How did we get to this state? I am old enough to remember 10, 000 at Ibrox and Andy Cameron quipping Rangers are planting tatties in Ibrox so they have something to lift at the end of the season, but we always had hope, we knew it would come right.
But at the moment I cannot see where we are going to get a goal from, never mind win trophies. What next? We cannot keep changing managers, but DM has to start winning. 4 games in and crisis has reared its ugly head. The game on Sunday against St. Mirren is now a must win game. How many times have we heard that.

The talk about the new owners, why would you think they are looking for a way out? They just knocked back big bucks for Chermiti when they could have easily sold him and got a fair chunk of money back. They said they were in this for the long haul, and I believe them.
