Just heard from a good source that Craig Sibbald is on his way in January, source is spot on, can't reveal.



17 Dec 2015 08:40:24
I would love to Sibbald in a Gers jersey, bags of potential! heres hoping.



17 Dec 2015 09:02:21
I don't know anything about the lad. So my question to my fellow bears is what type of player is he.



17 Dec 2015 09:27:12
Sibbald is a left winger, can be used as a attacking mid or a central mid, one if Falkirks main players. Also has another 18 months on his contract.



17 Dec 2015 10:42:26
Football?



17 Dec 2015 15:21:58
Not good enough.



17 Dec 2015 15:58:35
We would have to pay to much as they rate him and have him tied up.
On good authority he's going no where.



17 Dec 2015 15:43:31
make a bid for hibs macginn at the very least it would because them a bit off heartache.



17 Dec 2015 14:00:27
Good player for falkirk at championship level. Never in a million years good enough for us to move forward to a higher level.

Hope this is made up as if this is the kind of player we are looking at signing then we are in deep trouble.



17 Dec 2015 22:11:00
Gotta disagree the boy is a great young talent and would push us forward, guy is very highly regarded in falkirk same as vaulks, now might be the best time to get him if we can knowing a good few bairns fans they know there teams going to get ripped to bits again, let's be honest warbs knows what's he's doing and i'd imagine at most he would cost a few hundred grand, look at arfield down at burnley great wee player same youth system.



18 Dec 2015 08:15:24
Luigi,

What about the likes of kevin Macdonald (Wolves) , Scott Arfield (Burnley) , Wes Hoolahan (Norwich) , Craig Forsyth (Derby) Craig Bryson (Derby) , would you have said any of those guys would have been good enough for Rangers before they moved down south from smaller Scottish teams? cause i'll tell you what I'd take any one of them in a heartbeat now.

Take a minute to have a think before being so condescending and derogatory about the Scottish game. We do produce good players, they are just not allowed to develop due to the negative attitudes of some.

Get a grip. If you don't like my posts then fair enough, you are entitled to your opinion as I am to mine, but the constant name checking I am getting on this forum is pathetic. Lack of tolerance from trolls like you is what gives our club a bad name.

I never mentioned any other players or anything further than stating that this player is not good enough- as other posters have done. I will state it again- he is light weight, and is playing at his level, if we don't have better ideas than this at the club then we are in desperate trouble.

That is not to say that there aren't young players in Scotland that we shouldn't be looking at or have missed out on. Far better examples would be Scott Allan (available on free) and Robertson (who caused it us turmoil when he played for queens park) and mcginn (who I said we should have signed in summer on a free- now scotland's best young midfielder apparently! )

have some respect for other people's opinions please.



18 Dec 2015 13:42:50
Every post is negative Luigi! next you will be telling us Santa isn't good enough for Xmas.



18 Dec 2015 17:12:57
Sorry Santa isn't real. So you won't be getting any toys this year.

So I'm the only fan who is negative, and can see the impending car crash? No. You will find that the support is split between realistic people who can accept the truth and those who are deluded and attack anyone who doesn't agree with them.

I know a hell of a lot of fans that agree with my point of view, including a couple of ex players.

I'm fed up with the name checking, disagree with me if you want, think I'm negative if you want but remember we support the same team! I am not among the fans that moan and groan during games that doesn't achieve anything other than putting players under pressure.



19 Dec 2015 00:13:16
And if sibbald is good for Falkirk in the championship why can't he come to rangers and play well and develop his potential.



19 Dec 2015 00:09:37
Actually luigi! I have to say Santa and my good sources have it that I'm getting an imaginex batcave all for myself this Xmas! Apparently sibbald is to receive some body mass and a course of anabolic steroid to bring him up to the luigi weight class!

Anyway, it was not a personal attack on yourself luigi, I was merely putting the point that we are too quick to right off our own talent whereas the lower English teams are quick to capitalise on this! The players I mentioned previously were from lower scottish teams hence why I did not go down the road of Allan, Robertson and the like, another that springs to mind that we could of had was mcarthur at Hamilton, we could have had him for a nominal fee but let him go south now there is talk of arsenal! That's the type of thing I'm talking about.

I have better things to do than be a troll/ogre, I would live to agree with everything on this site and in general keep stood, however your posts seem to stick in my mind, full of negative attitude and no actual foresight or positive thoughts on how to rectify the potential problems you foresee.

I hope u can take my opinion on board and I'll try the same with you.

Rangers have taken ex-Fulham player Mekhi Leacock-McLeod on trial. Mekhi is 19 years old and a Right winger.



16 Dec 2015 08:17:25
Rangers are set to offer Gutkovskis a contract. Last season the latvian scored 28 goals in 34 appearances. Just what we are looking for. A goalscorer.



16 Dec 2015 09:59:14
Hopefully this is true! looks an able big striker.



16 Dec 2015 10:10:32
We have a guy who has scored 20 already.



16 Dec 2015 10:37:09
Yes albertz however he isn't a striker he is a winger. We need a striker not a make do striker.



16 Dec 2015 11:33:30
Fair enough, but you said we are looking for a goal scorer, we already have 1. But I agree, we do need another 1.



16 Dec 2015 13:22:08
That would be good news I reckon if true.



16 Dec 2015 13:08:02
In an ideal world all our attacking players should be capable of scoring 20+ goals in the Scottish Leagues. I welcome new signings that can make a difference and this guy's strike rate is definitely good. All we need now is a winger that can score goals and a Souness style midfield player!



17 Dec 2015 02:47:48
Boy is definitely a striker, not a winger. According to his club and profile. Hope he signs, puts the fear into the Unwashed.



17 Dec 2015 11:52:13
Lol the fear? Really? He plays in the Latvian league! Tthe diddy Clarke you have up front atm had a better goal ratio in a tougher league!



17 Dec 2015 14:07:16
Truth us folks that our football has fallen to such a low standard that I very much doubt there's that big a gulf between latvias top league and spl (particularly if you take the green gang out of equation) . Look at how our teams struggle against minor opposition in uefa cup.

I say give this guy a contract to end of season with an option to extend. He can't be any worse than Nicky clark.



17 Dec 2015 15:57:21
Tompo88 what difference does it make if the guy played in Latvia, he could come from timbucktoo as far as I me concerned, he is currently on trial to see if the gaffer thinks he could play in our leagues, plus the goal mouths and netting are the same size regardless of what country he last played, if m. w. says he is good enough that will do for me, anyway why are you on here commenting on who we might sign have your lot not got enough problems of there own? .



18 Dec 2015 08:17:33
Well put Billybluenose!



19 Dec 2015 18:53:01
Don't disagree with luigi or bluenose. But an unknown Latvian lad putting the fear in anyone I think is a bit pre mature! As I said Clarke had an incredible goal record and has failed to live up to expectations.



20 Dec 2015 16:11:15
Tompo, your trying to say the guy ain't up to much cause he played in Latvia, what do you think of varda ( leicester city ) he was playing not league football before his move I am not saying we've found another vardy but until we see what he can do.



21 Dec 2015 15:07:03
Merely saying that the "putting the fear" comment above seems a bit pre mature. that is all.



21 Dec 2015 17:47:54
Tompo88 fair play, but I honestly think you should have waited until we see this guy playing before he is judged, though I get your point in regards maybe some of our own shouldn't be making comments like ( putting the fear) he should also be waiting till we see what the player can do, ( but I do hope that he is right lol)
