Rangers banter 5

14 Jan 2026 16:28:01
Rommens official, will be managed though due to knock and will take 3 to 4 weeks to get match fit.

14 Jan 2026 17:06:35
is he not just back from injury rather than injured? also Belgian league was closed for 3 weeks so hasn't played in that time anyway.

14 Jan 2026 18:14:26
Yeah minutes getting managed so we won't see much in short term.

14 Jan 2026 16:08:00
Rommens announced 3.5 year contract.

14 Jan 2026 16:56:15
Yip that's Rommens signed but he won't be playing for us for about 3 or 4 weeks according to reports as he's just returning from an injury ☹️.

14 Jan 2026 17:00:21
Rommens injured.

14 Jan 2026 18:02:46
Sws he's not injured mate, has back from his injury but won't be game fit for 2/3 weeks.

14 Jan 2026 18:55:29
That's what i said My star returning from injury mate 👍.

14 Jan 2026 19:33:00
Never read it fully sws, sorry mate.

14 Jan 2026 15:57:22
I think it is widely acknowledged that we need to establish a business model where we develop our own players and sell them for a profit. I don't believe the current model of playing occasional games is helping our development.

Therefore, whilst it might be reinventing the wheel, would a Reserve League be a better use of preparing youngsters, whilst supporting the re-engagement of players from injury.

14 Jan 2026 17:00:35
It's a disgrace that in this country we don't have a reserve league or B teams that can come up to the championship at least to blood youngsters happens all over Europe. We are miles behind countries because of this imo once they hit 17/18 that's it and if not good enough they either go on scrap heap or too lesser leagues.

We all know young boys grow and mature at different times so late bloomers will miss out.

14 Jan 2026 17:27:09
That's what happens when dinosaurs are in charge Storm, about time we as a nation get caught up or will be left behind massively.

14 Jan 2026 17:37:50
I agree it's a disgrace but their are loan options.

14 Jan 2026 17:38:39
Totally agree Storm
It's sickening mate.

14 Jan 2026 18:05:52
Been fed up with this situation for a long time. The very least should be a basic reserves. Youth are unable to develop within the squad and injured players can't regain match fitness, squad players aren't able to play games to help force themselves back into team. It's a total nonsense.

14 Jan 2026 19:25:33
Totally agree, been a shambles in this country for too long and needs sorted out. I don't think it's a coincidence that when the original reserve league died and they started faffing about with it to varying degrees since that we have gone through decades of not making international tournaments as a country. The pathways are crap in Scotland.

The clubs have a lot to answer for as well.

14 Jan 2026 15:45:42
I still feel we are missing a creative link in middle of the park.
Are we working on it.?
Is this the 🤞ooc player coming in.

What people's thoughts?

14 Jan 2026 16:21:53
Rommens out for 2 to 3 weeks. Already.

14 Jan 2026 16:36:34
Aribo could add that.

14 Jan 2026 16:58:28
I agree PH we need a creative midfielder in central area and hopefully one that can add a goal or two as well.

14 Jan 2026 16:59:10
Antman worth ago as a 10, no?

14 Jan 2026 17:31:32
What about Gustavo Hamer at Sheffield United as saw were willing to let him go? Think we looked at him at him a couple of years ago.

14 Jan 2026 18:17:29
If we play with a 10 behind striker he has to be a good goal scorer and create or there's no point playing with a 10…. better off adding a more creative midfielder 8 to a flat 3.

Crying out for a guy that can thread those Steve Davis passes between CB and Full backs.

14 Jan 2026 19:12:48
We are still missing Todd Cantwell, we haven't had a creative, attacking midfield player since he left.

14 Jan 2026 15:33:54
I think this window proves that the new owners are not afraid to rectify their pre / early season mistakes.
We seem to be targeting a certain level of quality in this window which is:-
A/ great news.
B/ badly needed.
C/ will help keep us in this title race.


Obviously the proof will be in the pudding come the season end but we are certainly heading in the right direction under their leadership off the park and Rohl's on it.
As Lena Martell ( should've ) sang - 🎶one game at a time, sweet Rangers🎶
Keep the Faith🔴⚪🔵.

14 Jan 2026 16:09:42
Yes good to see the action taken on the coach and senior management.

Making good moves to challenge after a terrible start. The champions league qualification cash is a huge incentive given we are still in the race.

14 Jan 2026 17:08:41
I think they are purely rectifying the gaps which were left in the squad. so LB and RW were positions we were short and you could argue a physical LM as well as Dio only player we have who could play there.

14 Jan 2026 15:14:25
I'm reading Rommens is at the training center doing the media stuff. He's signed a three and a half year deal.

14 Jan 2026 15:28:41
Thank the lord all mighty. Been checking the news every half hour, expecting to see him with the famous blue shirt on. Just being impatient as many have stated already, it's been signed n the guy was sorting personal affairs back home.

14 Jan 2026 16:44:36
Injured for 4 weeks yet. Available mid feb.

14 Jan 2026 14:32:17
Well I suppose it's nice to dream regarding well known OOC player

At 37yrs old - Robert Lewandowski (Barcelona) is available.

Any other suggestions?

14 Jan 2026 15:08:16
Pretty sure Neymars OOC this season is he not? He must need minutes for the world cup 😂.

14 Jan 2026 15:09:29
Couldn't lace the Cherminator's boots anymore TJM 😜.

14 Jan 2026 15:16:30
Here one. John stones
Been some talk of him leaving man city end of season
Potential new captain of Rangers 31 years old.
I seem to remember John2575 had mentioned previously on these pages regarding a well known experienced player Potential captain material.?

14 Jan 2026 15:20:48
Lewandowski couldn't handle the pace of the Scottish game 😉😉.

14 Jan 2026 15:43:51
John Stones and Nathan Patterson - really? 🤔😁- need to hire some more medical staff IMHO.

14 Jan 2026 15:50:53
Apparently he's struggling to maintain 90min years catching up. straight from a polish Barcelona fan i know.

14 Jan 2026 14:14:54
Dose anyone know how much Olson would cost next season?
I've been looking but can't find any info on the transfer fee.

14 Jan 2026 14:31:17
About 8 or 9 mill.

14 Jan 2026 14:41:38
7 million Euros.

14 Jan 2026 15:05:56
£7M euro which is £6m currently.

14 Jan 2026 15:26:54
6 million. That's a steal! Granted he performs n stays injury free. Got high hopes for the lad. Tochi n olsen are a step up in class from our signings the past few years. Feels like the start of something special.

14 Jan 2026 15:51:38
No way its 6million they paid 14 or something.

14 Jan 2026 16:19:29
Forever they paid €10 million.

It would have risen to 14 if he met certain parameters which he has not.

Wolfsburg would rather lose 3 million than have to pay another 4.

14 Jan 2026 17:30:42
Aphe, transfermarkt has it down as 14mill euros they paid for him. Fairly reliable site👍🏻.

14 Jan 2026 13:30:09
Ed I hope you let this last post through.

The stig thanks for the shout out, I am fine my auntie died last week with short horrible illness.

I think I am banned from the Ed's as I was sniping at that weekend so this will be my last post. If Ed's don't want me posting I won't post and I won't do what a certain other poster does and make up a million names. I'll just look in on the background at the rumours.

Wish you and the Ed's all the best 👌.

{Ed001's Note - you've not been banned. I wouldn't even see your post if you were banned.}

14 Jan 2026 13:50:39
Nobody wants you banned Storm. Your a legend on here. A grumpy old legend but one of us.

14 Jan 2026 13:54:30
Sorry to hear that Storm my condolences to yiu and your family. I know we always haven't seen eye to eye on things but that's what debate and opinion is all about. I think I was banned to. no idea why as I was posting and nothing was coming through so gave up for a while.
So apologies if I had said anything offensive.

14 Jan 2026 13:55:06
May your auntie rest in peace storm. Condolences go out to your family at a difficult time.

14 Jan 2026 13:56:21
Sorry for your loss Storm. Now get yourself posting. We all say things we shouldn't at times but it would need to be pretty bad to get banned.

14 Jan 2026 13:59:45
Sorry to hear that about your aunt storm, I remember you saying a while ago about her poor health, as for not posting again I really hope you reconsider.

14 Jan 2026 14:02:10
Storm, firstly sorry to hear about your aunt bud, my condolences to your family.

I've stepped back as well bud, but pop on now and then, it can be hard not to have a pop, I get that, better to take a breath n then post, if u decide not to continue mate then I wish u all the best, rather u didn't, but u do what u need bud, take care👍.

14 Jan 2026 14:03:44
Condolences Storm. Hope to be hearing from as you feel able.

14 Jan 2026 14:20:20
Condolences Storm, all the best 👍🏻.

14 Jan 2026 14:26:05
Sorry for your loss storm. Keep the chin up and keep posting ya grumpy f**k 😉🫡.

14 Jan 2026 14:34:02
Sorry for your loss, Storm.
Always liked you as a poster - could disagree with each other but it is then forgotten about by the time the next debate comes around.
As you aren't banned, take the time you need away and come back fresh and ready to be an ar$e again ( only joking mate ).


Done it myself over Christmas. More wanted to take a breather from everything - work, football talk, family issues etc than anything generally wrong.

14 Jan 2026 14:40:34
Condolences to you and the family Storm,

14 Jan 2026 14:40:42
Storm sorry to hear of your auntie mate.
Chin up pal and try get on with things as best as u can.

Hope to see u back on again soon, even if it's picking on me as usual hahaha

14 Jan 2026 14:43:07
Strøm my friend my heart breaks for you.

14 Jan 2026 14:48:46
Storm, I'm sorry to read about your aunt.
I'm wishing you and your family well at this sad time.

I noticed you hadn't posted much, if anything, in the last few days.
Get yourself back on here, pal, you're one of the very best posters on this site.

14 Jan 2026 15:06:00
Storm, sorry for loss, do what you need to do for your own self wellbeing.

14 Jan 2026 15:06:50

My sincere Condolences Storm
Sorry to hear that mate.

Glad I gave a shout out to you now
Thinking of you and your family mate

Also looks like a misunderstanding about thinking you were banned going on what Ed has replied to you

So hopefully see you back on more when you feel up to it 💙.

14 Jan 2026 15:32:43
Take care strom, condolences to you and yours.

14 Jan 2026 15:36:36
Sorry for your loss Storm pal, it's horrible to lose anyone to illness.

I for one hope you keep posting as you are one of the no nonsense guys I look forward to hearing your input even when we don't agree.

14 Jan 2026 15:41:25
Sincere condolences Storm, you do whatever is best for your mental health at this time but know that there are plenty of people on here who enjoy your posts when you are ready to interact.
Of course not everyone agrees all the time but that is normal and wouldn't have it any other way, as long as there is mutual respect.

14 Jan 2026 15:47:13
Condolences to you are your family Strom. Need to do what you thinks best for you.

14 Jan 2026 16:44:04
Sorry for your loss Storm, but maybe it's better you have a wee rest as you definitely seem to get upset with certain posters 👍✌️🇬🇧.

14 Jan 2026 15:30:22
Cheers guys much appreciated I am fine it's my mum that I need to look after as she is the oldest of 5 and this is the 2nd one she has to say goodbye to. She feels guilty.

Sorry for your loss Strom. Hopefully post again soon. Take care.

14 Jan 2026 16:56:40
Cheers guys much appreciated. It wasn't an announcement to leave. I thought my posts were banned.

I don't know what's up maybe something wrong with my phone as I seen I am not named on live chat can I get added Ed please.
