15 May 2016 21:20:50
Hearing that joey barton will let rangers know within the next week if he's going to accept their offer and sign a 3 year contract, from a very good usually very reliable source.



15 May 2016 22:55:34
I can't help but feel he's playing a game to get a two year deal from Burnley.

Hope I'm wrong because I think he'd dominate up here.



16 May 2016 07:55:41
I would suspect the hat would have shown him old firm dvd, and he will give barton couple of tickets for scottish cup final. once he hears the rangers roar he will be hooked.



16 May 2016 10:12:56
would love to see him up here great quality love to see him against the likes of scott brown who thinks he has quality.



15 May 2016 21:54:44
Ings 100% won't happen. Klopp will be keeping him for the 1st team. He also is not a fan of loaning players out, that's why he recalled ward from Aberdeen straight away. Ings will be staying at Liverpool next season. On another note rossiter is a great signing!



15 May 2016 19:24:08
Paddy McNair on loan from Man United.



15 May 2016 18:49:14
Danny Ings on loan is looking a serious possibility. You can say I'm talking s**t, but looked what happened when everyone said that to the guy who realeased the news about Barton.

Things are looking good.



15 May 2016 18:54:53
What makes you think that bud? What an addition he would be.



15 May 2016 19:02:43
I've just heard that he might be coming for a medical in the next 48 hours. Not 100% if it's definitely going to happen obviously mate, but we'll see.



15 May 2016 20:02:40
Why would a guy who could get a club in the premiership come to the spl?



15 May 2016 20:48:03
Cee look at Barton. I'm sure a few PL teams would have him and he's considering joining us. Anything can happen in footy.



15 May 2016 21:07:06
Cee ask Joey Barton and Jordan Rossiter mate.



15 May 2016 21:40:27
1.) Klopp has Firmino, Benteke, Sturridge, Origi already for the ST spot in a team that plays with 1 striker.

2.) Klopp will be bringing in players he wants, no doubt Benteke and Ings will be the players most likely offloaded.

3.) Klopp has reportedly 100m to spend this summer, he'll have to either loan out or sell some players to afford the signings he wants to make.

4.) Mcparland has very good contacts within Liverpool, giving us the upper hand in any potential deal in terms of competing with other clubs.

5.) I'm not claiming it will definitely happen, only passing on information I've heard. Besides it could be a 6 month loan to get his fitness up, considering he's been injured all year.



15 May 2016 21:23:48
Why cee. Because WE ARE RANGERS.



15 May 2016 21:48:21
To play for a top European football club, and to win 🏆 trophies and medals ? Before earning himself a big transfer, or going back to Liverpool as a proven scorer,? Not difficult mate? , why did gazza, Steven, Stevens, butcher, woods, falco, hatelely, and all the other major international players come to Rangers?



15 May 2016 23:30:24
TomTom you're right mate but guys like Woods Butcher etc came because English clubs were on a European ban.



16 May 2016 12:27:49
"You can say I'm talking s**t, but looked what happened when everyone said that to the guy who realeased the news about Barton. "

Because one unlikely thing may happen doesn't mean two unlikely things will happen, that's the gamblers fallacy.

I'd love Ings to join, don't get me wrong. but I seriously doubt it will happen, he's too highly paid and too close to Liverpool's first team, only way I see it happening is *maybe* for 6 months to help him get fitness after his injury.



16 May 2016 12:15:35
"why did gazza, Steven, Stevens, butcher, woods, falco, hatelely, and all the other major international players come to Rangers? "

Because they were offered top money - among the best in Britain!



15 May 2016 18:17:11
Joey Barton @ Loch Lomond playin golf with Kenny Miller today, hope he signs this contract soon man, he might be waiting to see if we get into Europe next season,



15 May 2016 20:48:51
The same guy who broke the Barton story has also came out with the Danny Ings story, he seems to be spot on with every transfer were linked with.



15 May 2016 22:40:27
Exactly. I never said it was definitely going to happen, only a 'possibility' but who thought we'd sign Barton (which is looking likely) or even the Barton rumour to be true. Anything is possible under this management team (by possible I mean within means) .



15 May 2016 15:22:45
Anyone heard what's happening with the boy knox from livingstone.



15 May 2016 15:37:57
I believe Livingston do not want to sell the lad, we have offered an amount and it has been knocked back, they might wait for an English club to bid, feel sorry for the boy, like Ryan Gault he may get lost in his career, although Gault has played a bit, and is getting a great footballing education, he really wants game time. Fingers crossed the boy Knox gets his wish. It is nice to see young Scottish talent, i just want them at Rangers.



15 May 2016 16:26:18
Well I do know Livingston need a ÂŁ100k every season for youth development so there is a good chance they are waiting to get a higher bid. Before I hear what a load of shit well my laddie is there.



15 May 2016 16:39:58
I think MW will be waiting to see if he gets all his 1st team targets before he splashes out that kind of money on a 16 year old, but I'm sure we're still interested. Hope no one gets in there first though.



15 May 2016 17:44:41
Who is Ryan Gault never heard if him.



15 May 2016 18:25:10
My apologies guys Ryan Gauld, another wee gem of a player, would be nice to get a season loan for him, under our management team, he would be a storm. Things are shaping up nicely, can't wait for the cup final, and the fixtures for next season, Rangers are back. you have been warned.



15 May 2016 20:19:58
Livingston have time on their hands to see what they can get, why take the 1st offer and potentially lose out.



15 May 2016 18:00:37
Heard knox is off to west brom.



15 May 2016 13:44:05
What's happening with Andy Murdoch?



15 May 2016 18:11:19
Likely another loan deal I should think.



16 May 2016 00:25:45
Sporting have said they would never loan him to a Scottish team that is a non starter with Gauld.



15 May 2016 13:33:45
It's all over Twitter we're trying to get Danny Ings on loan for next season?
This would be huge and the guy is due some first team action and we could definitely provide that for him.



15 May 2016 13:44:34
Would be great to get him, if its true!



15 May 2016 15:08:17
Does he not have a serious injury.



15 May 2016 15:29:03
on the bench today pal.



15 May 2016 15:35:11
Is fit to play now DerHammer.



15 May 2016 15:42:51
No chance, Liverpool have just payed 8 million for him, so it would be very doubtful if Liverpool put him out on loan, but I said no chance about joey Barton so what do i know, not very much obviously lol.



15 May 2016 16:22:17
Could be a possibility, I doubt Klopp will give him much game time unless he's 100% fit, maybe a wee 6 months up here could be beneficial to both parties.



15 May 2016 18:45:32
Cant see it happening. Liverpool won't subsidise his full wage and if they are recieve a good offer for Benteke then they will want to keep a hold of him until a replacement is found. Lads a great player though one can hope but at least these are the types of names we should be looking at.



15 May 2016 13:52:17
To be honest the barton rumour has stunned me, would never have believed it. Looks a certain now so if ings is rumoured then logic suggests its believable. Here's hoping.



15 May 2016 09:58:35
According to the Sunday post Jason Cummings and Graham Dorrans are soon to follow joey Barton to Rangers.



15 May 2016 10:17:18
Would be great signings both. Cummings a bit of a knob but MW will manage him well I think.



15 May 2016 10:24:36
With all these Midfielders coming in, I feel like Halliday and Holt will struggle to maintain their first team places. Which is a shame given the season they've had!



15 May 2016 10:35:55
I don't see why we would want Dorrans. he has another year on his contract and cost Norwich 3Mill last summer, has been constantly slated for his sideways passing. If we close the Barton deal, we would have bought 4 midfielders (Crooks/ Windass/ Rossiter/ Barton) we certainly would not need another with Holt/ Halliday/ Thompson/ Burt plus Shiels and law still about.



15 May 2016 10:40:47
I think Holt will be fine, he's Scotland's Iniesta.



15 May 2016 10:50:37
Halliday can cover at left back as well so at least we don't need another LB to cover Wallace. I'm sure he will get game time through the season, maybe not a solid starter every game but he will play. Holt though, I don't know. Lots of competition for that floating role in midfield now, just don't know if he will hold down that role over others next season.



15 May 2016 10:53:31
Given the schedule and if we get a european run we need a squad that can deal with it, every player gets their chance and as long as there's competition for places and a lean squad of about 20 first team players with the youth mixing in and around taht then we'd be in good stead.

We're about to lose players too, specifically midfielders and we've been crying out for a natural holding player, if we signed Barton then that would be Law and Shiels replaced, who would have been on substantial wages given their time and bonus increase whenever we got promoted.

We need competition for places, no sentiment in football but given the guys have gave us such a good season i'd assume any signings are there to show them there's no complacency and their position isn't a given.



15 May 2016 10:53:41
Law and Shiels will be gone anyway. Was watching the Accrington v Wimbledon game last night and Windass was shite, would have holt starting over him any day of the week. Would take Cummings though, I'm sure Warburton would sort him out and he's only 20, so still has a lot to learn and bags of potential.



15 May 2016 11:01:22
I don't agree rfcteddybear, look at all the players in midfield that'll be moving on shiels, law and zelalem all he's done is improve the team by shifting on lesser players for dorrans, barton, windass and rossiter if all goes to plan. I agree holt and halliday won't be guaranteed starters but law, shiels and zelalem have had their oppurtunites this season and so will they two.



15 May 2016 12:01:57
Gram, I hope that's tongue in cheek!



15 May 2016 13:14:41
Ed001. You heard anything re Danny ings being available for loan next season and Rangers currently enquiring about taking him? Would've thought it was far fetched personally as we'd only probably afford a small portion of his wages but this is the latest proposed signing target from a poster on another site who called Rossiter and Barton deals way before the media even got a sniff of it. He's normally bang on the money and his info is from the same source he got the other two from.



{Ed001's Note - nothing re him being available for loan no. McParland asked about a number of players, but Ings might be playing today, as he is back to fitness. The pre-season will be when a decision is made on what to do with him. It is very unlikely, very very unlikely even, that he will be available for loan.}

15 May 2016 13:41:53
Ok, cheers ed. Given this guys track record on calling transfer targets over past few windows (he also had halliday and Holt pegged before papers got wind of it previously) I was hoping there may be something to it as he'd be an absolute stand out up here and this guy clearly has a good source but oh well lol. I do recall warburton saying a few weeks ago it'd be late July/ August before any epl loans would be looked at so ties in with your assessment too.



15 May 2016 13:53:16
Dorrans I could not see coming. I reckoned Barton was BS to right enough so you never know

I like Holt and Halliday we might get a few sniffs from English teams for rhem Holt especially could play in there championship. I am sure if we don't ask for to much. We might be able to of him for around 1 million with what is on his contract.



15 May 2016 15:50:50
Dorrans released.



15 May 2016 16:24:26
Wee Ally- Holt and Halliday were immense for us this season and hopefully they stay in the team.
We have Rossiter so hopefully another midfield player to be signed but Dorrans and Barton will command massive wages. Can't see us signing both of them.



15 May 2016 17:25:44
Bluebluesea where are you reading dorrans was released? I can't see that happening as he will be good in championship.



15 May 2016 17:47:37
Holt and Halliday have been good this year. can't see them hanging around for a spot ob the bench Both are good enough to play for there country abd need a regular game.



15 May 2016 10:34:35
Would be genuinely delighted if we could sign those two. For all Cummings off field issues and his appalling taste in hair do's I think the gaffer could turn him into a real star that we could make serious profit on. Dorrans would add extra creativity to the midfield. All we need is a solid centre half and the title is in the bag.



15 May 2016 15:53:17
no chance of cummings, dorrans or ings fraid not in budget.



14 May 2016 23:33:54
Heard Barton is a done deal subject to a medical in the morning 2 year deal with the option of a third hope it's true.



15 May 2016 07:20:05
Pretty much a done deal if player can agree 15k a week for two year Will be a free transfer

I just hope that him being on twitter constantly, doesn't end up in controversy and in front pages for some reason or other.



15 May 2016 15:56:18
barton will not make his mind up as quick as that he will weigh up all his options don't forget he would be in premiership the deciding factor will be length contract and how close we get to his wages at burnley.
