Rangers Debates

I've been working on this for a while. The CPTSD can cause a huge trauma response of procrastination and I can get overwhelmed and my energy depletes very quickly.

So I've been replying bit by bit and thanks to screenshots I still had your names. Since I got booted out and had to create a new user name, I can't reply to my actual post, so I just wanted to share my gratitude etc here.

Wow, I was actually overwhelmed reading through these replies.

Thank you so much to everyone who took the time to comment, and thank you to the Ed for the incredibly kind note, that means a massive amount to me.

@JFM10, Fork, Sir Walter Smith OBE, Flb, Jardine_451, Shanksi, Boy blue 4, zikos, and I4M. Thank you all for the beautiful words, prayers, and support. Hearing that it resonated with you and brought a bit of perspective to the forum is everything I could have hoped for.
@Gersdaft, Reading your reply blew me away. Thank you for being so brave and sharing your struggles. It proves exactly why we need to talk about this stuff. That strong persona is a heavy mask to carry, and I am so, so glad you reached out for help and that inside you're dancin now! You're an inspiration to many.

@AyrshireMurphy. Please do not hold your hands up or apologise at all! You have a toddler, a house move, and you have a massive amount on your plate, so please look after yourself first. I am struggling and I I would absolutely love and appreciate any research or links you find whenever you have a spare moment, but absolutely no rush at all. Family and your own peace come first. Thank you, 😊

@Fork & Boy blue 4. Thank you for clarifying about Goingfor56. My heart absolutely breaks for him. To lose his girl at Christmas and just get through his first Father's Day. I can't even find the words. If you see this, Goingfor56, we are all wrapping our arms around you.
You are not alone, and the whole Rangers family is behind you.

Thank you again, everyone. I
was terrified to hit post on it but you've shown me exactly what this community is made of. Things have been tough these past couple of weeks, but I'll take it one small step at a time.

Much love and respect to you all,
Gazza x

I'd missed your original post, Gazza, so sorry uve been having a hard time and hope you're OK. Just want to agree and say this forum has been great whenever anyone has felt the need to share whatever they are going through.

I have certainly appreciated the help at times too, we're all here for each other when it matters, even though at times we disagree and may cross the line at times. Stay strong. 💪😁

13 Jul 2026 17:11:23
Super post, Gazza. Most of the forum were very supportive to me when I was struggling.
Please don't ever hold back if you need support. I tried dealing with it on my own but it doesn't work.

Take it a bit at a time, only you know your limits and people will support in any way they can if they know that support is needed. Wishing you strength each and every day.

13 Jul 2026 17:19:29
Excellent post, Gazza, glad u seem to be doing well, push thru you'll get there, all the very best. 🔱👍👍

13 Jul 2026 17:51:31
Another excellent post, Gazza. I really look forward to reading all your posts re football and your challenges. You are a tremendous inspiration to many.

Keep talking and God bless.

13 Jul 2026 18:55:03
Absolutely love this great post. 💙

13 Jul 2026 21:08:33
Gazza, you're becoming my favourite poster.

Love the honesty, let's say 'alternative' and Sky reports!

Keep it up.

13 Jul 2026 21:38:28
Excellent post, Gazza.
Take care of yourself and keep talking.
Try to stay as positive as you possibly can.

13 Jul 2026 22:03:51
Good post, you take care, Gazza. 👍

John - how was wimbers?

13 Jul 2026 15:15:35
Athole, it was outstanding, then China Town for an excellent feed.

13 Jul 2026 21:11:43
Brilliant John. A few Pimms along the way?

Like boxing, I've kind of fallen away from tennis. Not as many characters now you can root for (or against).

The boy Fery was a good story though.

Did you say hi to Catherine & William?

I heard they were asking for Fork!

13 Jul 2026 12:46:24
One signing I really hope we get is JHD, my worry on this is we get there to late. Yes obviously i understand that we have loads of midfielders but we don't have one like JHD. There all similar types from Devlin to Barron and Raskin ect.

I actually hope that Raskin is sold ASAP and to the highest bidder. Nothing personal I just want us to have the money to bring in JHD.

Ferguson was a pipe dream, JHD isn't though. JHD and a Cerny and a couple defenders, and I don't think we are far away apart from outgoing's.

13 Jul 2026 16:32:34
Agree, MrRangers. If we can get Jhd and Cerny, plus 2 solid centre halves, I'd be delighted going into the first half of the season with that.

Most important business after that would be outgoings, desperately need rid of players like Bajrami, Cifuentes, Danilo, Souttar, Sterling, McCaulsand, Diomande & Raskin (don't desperately need rid of last 2, but makes sense cashing in, especially on Raskin).

13 Jul 2026 12:14:51
Just to clarify something because can't stand it when people lie. I never once said that Cammy Devlin was going to hearts, and all the ones that said he was coming to Rangers would have egg on their face. this was something that was said earlier on, on a different thread. I did say "aye ok" to someone saying he was signing and that it was his first post. But please don't just say stuff to suit your agenda. You know who I'm talking about

13 Jul 2026 13:07:15
Nobody has a clue what you're talking about mate.

13 Jul 2026 13:24:08
You know who you are, very cloak and dagger.

13 Jul 2026 13:44:56
Get Detective Fork in the case. 🕵️‍♂️

They did a few saying that Devlin was going to Hearts, and posters would be embarrassed, saying it was a done deal. Orange Tinted was one.

As requested, MPH.

13 Jul 2026 14:50:46
Busted! No fibbing on here when we have an ex member of the Russian KGB (Fork).

13 Jul 2026 15:11:12
Change my name to Forkoffski BB. 😇👍

13 Jul 2026 15:34:18
Knew you wouldn't let me down, Fork. 👍

13 Jul 2026 16:05:10
Was that by popular demand, Fork?

13 Jul 2026 10:12:43
The amount of ITK posters on here at present, Rangers must have some amount of people working for them, who can't keep private information to themselves,
We are going to have some size of squad if they are all signed.

13 Jul 2026 15:20:37
Jasp r u assuming the itk posters are getting info from employees of Rangers football club?

13 Jul 2026 18:07:58
Some people get some credible information from all different sources. The "In The Know" tag does them no favours imo. It causes more hassle than it's worth. Now, some of it's self inflicted in certain cases, but more often than not, it's a source of drama, but each to their own.

13 Jul 2026 21:26:12
It's called rumours not in the know. Credible information that could be true does not mean in the know.

It's looking like club doing really well keeping stuff in house now and I love that.

Doesn't mean people should not post what they believe could be credible information.

13 Jul 2026 21:26:31
If you want facts you're on the wrong site.

12 Jul 2026 22:00:31
Aphe its time for you to come back my friend.

We miss you

12 Jul 2026 22:20:01
Yup get your big Norwegian bahookie back on here pronto, my friend, Ignorer tapene. 👍🔱

12 Jul 2026 22:48:23
Might see him back when serious stuff starts in August.

12 Jul 2026 23:02:55
I thought Aph was maybe AR32 now.

13 Jul 2026 10:21:37
Maybe back under a new name. A very good poster was Aphelion. I always looked out for his posts. Hope you're well, Aphelion.

13 Jul 2026 10:43:58
I might be wrong, Bunster, but I don't think he is. His posting style is very obvious. Sure, AR32 was on at the same time as Aphe. Think he's washed his hands of the site, which is a shame. Thought he might have commented on Norway's performance at the World Cup.

13 Jul 2026 10:57:04
Aphelion, come back with your good info.

13 Jul 2026 12:29:31
Yeah, how's not on as anyone new atm?

13 Jul 2026 13:09:45
I still have the end of August on the sweepstake.

13 Jul 2026 13:24:43
Aphelion has definitely been back.

13 Jul 2026 13:40:16
You've said that before, Mystar, but you seem to be the only one that thinks so. Username would help, but you can't remember it, I think you said. His style is so obvious that I think more than you would've noticed.

13 Jul 2026 13:51:58
JFM, something Ranger was one of them.

13 Jul 2026 13:52:01
I saw the post or 2 that star is referring to as well.

It really looked like Aphe. Then that one never posted again either.

I'd say 6 weeks ago maybe.

13 Jul 2026 14:15:18
Stevie, I can't remember his full username now, but it was something with Ranger. I mentioned his full username at the time, and he has never been back using that username, mate.

13 Jul 2026 15:04:23
I remember that too, but only a couple of posts.

13 Jul 2026 15:24:46
It's interesting re Alphe, so many wanted him away, now they want him back. He was one of the best on here, and no one could touch him on Scandinavian football.

At the very beginning, he was the only one who believed me re Dahl. Get back Alph.

13 Jul 2026 16:04:32
Agreed, John. 👍

13 Jul 2026 16:06:19
Not sure the ones that wanted him away are the ones wanting him back, John.

13 Jul 2026 17:11:36
I could never decide if I really liked him for some of his info and discussions or wanted to hit ignore for some of his other stuff. If he wants to come back, great, but if not, we've got lots of great posters who are really appreciated.

13 Jul 2026 19:59:58
Beale, I noticed at the time myself.

It was like he was being Scottish/Rangers.

2 posts I seen. Definitely agree, mate.

What we all need to remember is he said he was going to go have family time, enjoy nature and his spiritual/religious beliefs in the wilderness.



Let's let the man be. Let him come back when Gers ready.

We all know he's looking in and will be back before the first ball is kicked.

12 Jul 2026 19:50:57
I still think we're going to sign Lewis too

Dahl and Lewis soul would replace Raskin fee £25m covers both of them Diomande covers cerny

Barron is cash in the bank

Expect Moore back on loan for £2m

Barron would cover 2 new centre backs likey diawara and porteous

£25 m for manny would be almost pure profit by time we sell Bajrami Aasgaard Antman Danilo Cifuentes it be nearly £40m

The left n right back would need to come off that

We could be bringing in over £70 m this summer and finish with a better squad than we started and still have half the money

12 Jul 2026 20:35:13
A lot of wishful thinking, bud, but see what you're thinking. Me, I don't think Moore would be back or Fergie, just not seeing anything concrete. Porteous would do, but would he be accepted? I appreciate it's a movable feast, and deals are the sum of many parts. 2-3m loan fee is a no for me, could get a player for that, and Fergie I just don't see coming, bud.



Yes, some will go to fund movement, but already Dahl/Dragojevic/ are expected, it's already a bit crowded, Devlin in the door.

I can see your thinking, but think it may be a long shot, bud. Good post though. 👍👍

12 Jul 2026 21:12:47
Cheers Fork, I did forget about Drago.

If we signed Drago and Dahl, as we think we will, if Ferguson then came in we'd need to sell or loan Chuckwuani. I agree Drago crowds it too much.

12 Jul 2026 21:44:14
No probs bud. 👍

13 Jul 2026 08:01:22
Our club has been posting losses for years, and just had to finalise another share issue worth £16 million. I don't see massive money being spent even if we sell Raskin, Diomande and Barron. Dahl or the young Serb in. A pricey replacement for Chermiti would potentially happen if we got big money for him, but I think we'll keep money for January, and get back to keeping cash in reserve.

We've got other areas that need investment. I'm certain we won't sign 3 for the CM.

13 Jul 2026 08:11:01
Can't see Ferguson or Moore, I'm still confident we will see quality signings instead of them.

13 Jul 2026 09:50:20
Me neither, Dado. 👍

13 Jul 2026 21:27:46
Think Ferguson would be a total waste of funds at this moment in time. I'd rather wait and hope we get him with less time on his contract in future.
