Any news on Alves? Thought he was making his mind up today?
21 Jan 2018 22:45:47
No hheard a thing yet either mate
21 Jan 2018 22:46:26
Making his mind up over the next 48hours I read
22 Jan 2018 06:41:33
hòpe he goes which is sad cause I was happy enough when he arrived
22 Jan 2018 10:23:38
Another journalist quoted this morning as saying the Italian club has only enquired about Alves. No offer has been made and so no deal agreed-depends who you choose to believe-might be going nowhere.
22 Jan 2018 12:41:45
you would expect alves to see out his contract unless gers give him a sweetener.
22 Jan 2018 14:19:25
Alves wants to be playing regular football though so he gets included in Portugals world cup squad
22 Jan 2018 15:31:24
If he was in right mind frame to stay and play at rangers I would keep him as he is the best centre half at the club if not the league, however I think his heart is away with PC and that’s how he seems disinterested in playing.
22 Jan 2018 16:12:28
See if I'm honest I've not been overly impressed with Alves I don't think we'd miss him in the slightest. I don't think he wants to be at Rangers. He was a Great Defender in his day but I think his day is well and truly gone.
21 Jan 2018 18:13:15
I'm hearing accies manager expects Docherty to stay because he's out injured for at least 4 weeks maybe longer so any deal if any getting done will leave him with hami lton for rest of season. I know someone who researches for accies program. Maybe winding me. up but who knows.
21 Jan 2018 18:50:28
His father a founder member of rangers 1st BTW and owner of the company that prints the rangers news, expects to be talking terms with rangers early this week.
22 Jan 2018 05:33:21
a lot of rubbish, I know the rangers news printer bloke and what your saying is made up
21 Jan 2018 18:19:06
Word in Hamilton tonight is that Accies are ready to pull the plug on Docherty deal even though they're desperate for cash. Seems we've offered just £100k up front with the rest payable in the summer - again!
21 Jan 2018 19:00:11
seriously hope this is untrue we will never pip Celtic penny pinching I'm all for staying within our means but if we can only stump up 100k up front then we are in bad shape
21 Jan 2018 19:19:24
More fake news! - we will save that a month on Bruno’s wages. I’m sure once he moves back to Italy we will conclude the deal for docherty. I would also brace for a couple of offers for our top players towards the end of the window.
21 Jan 2018 19:37:19
Burnbank stop making things up
21 Jan 2018 20:05:47
Burnbank/ Eddlewood
21 Jan 2018 20:40:47
As i stated below earlier, Rangers aren't willing to meet the fee until the summer yet how many people hit the disagree button! Rangers have options for loans in his position so will not pay money for him now (total 750k) that they don't have.
21 Jan 2018 23:58:15
Correct, China, we are indeed unwilling to meet the full fee and that could cost us the services of a player with decent potential who is desperate to come to Ibrox. Accies, it seems, want a minimum of half (£350k) right away with the rest in the summer and we're not close yet to that figure.
22 Jan 2018 10:07:40
Our club cleary do not have a lot of money to buy players that why all the deals have been loans with view to buy in the summer unless we start shifting players out i can not see us going ahead with the deal for docherty.
21 Jan 2018 15:57:46
What's the script with Docherty? Anybody got an update on this at all?
21 Jan 2018 16:43:33
Asking a question and somebody clicks unbelievable.
21 Jan 2018 17:14:11
Rangers won't pay the asking price until summer with the option of taking hyndman on loan
21 Jan 2018 17:17:54
People pay too much attention to the disagree count.
Who cares if people hit disagree?
21 Jan 2018 17:20:21
Supposedly on going according to est on twitter
21 Jan 2018 17:33:20
Starting to realise that Only_a_game. There are plenty of cowardly silent trolls, and also a few bears that like to wind each other up. I'm sure your comment and this one will attract a few for example!
21 Jan 2018 18:10:17
Fully expected of course, but who cares?
People seem to take it as a personal slight if someone presses disagree.
21 Jan 2018 18:13:38
Well there's not a yes Or no option button so I presume with you asking the question if we have heard or know what's going on with Docherty? most people are pressing the unbelievable button cause they like you don't know anything else about it. And like i said there's only a believable and unbelievable options to press. And people need to calm down and stop calling there fellow bears Names, leave that to the other mob, the manky ones.
21 Jan 2018 18:29:48
I agree less name calling and more calm. Deep breaths lads!
21 Jan 2018 18:42:31
Just for clarification I haven't pressed disagree in this thread, I just don't understand stand while people seem to get annoyed/ riled/ frustrated when somebody does.
Your right there should be no name calling but thankfully its extremely rare on here. Somebody resorted to it yesterday and it didn't look great.
21 Jan 2018 20:42:10
Fair play folks, should’ve kept the head.
21 Jan 2018 21:49:11
The same lad that called someone a rocket came on again this morning saying he was a new poster. Great start eh. Way to make friends and influence people!
22 Jan 2018 12:02:11
i had a wee chuckle when i saw that marv! 😂😂
21 Jan 2018 12:55:17
Hamilton manager came out and said he fully expects Docherty to be a Hamilton player untill the end of the season.
21 Jan 2018 13:43:17
I think rangers will buy him and leave with Hamilton on loan. A friend who played youth with rangers was speaking to me yesterday. He was chatting to some youth coaches and they let slip that rangers are keeping tabs on young Cochrane from hearts. Going back to the buying the best youth prospects in Scotland
21 Jan 2018 17:05:53
There are lots of Clubs looking at Cochrane, it would be naive to even assume that Rangers wouldn't be one of them
21 Jan 2018 17:35:01
we’re going BACK to buying best youth prospects in Scotland .
cochrane and lewis morgan were both at rangers and were let go
how will we ever develop our own if we wint give them a chance and then let them go
plenty on here saying hard yes but good enough how don't you know he’s never had a chance
hope we don’t make same mistake with barjonas etc
21 Jan 2018 17:53:11
They won't pay 600k to loan him back to an spfl club pal he's a first team regular if we get him 100%. and we'll have better young players coming through than cochran and we let go a player who was head and shoulders above him in billy gilmour. That was a big mistake right there
21 Jan 2018 18:17:55
I'm sure we tried to keep hold of Gilmour and he chose to go to Chelsea.
21 Jan 2018 18:24:50
I was tempted to hit both agree and disagree with your post Stuart, I agreee re Docherty not getting loaned back but I disagree with your comments on Cochran, I think he is a great young prospect .
21 Jan 2018 23:59:19
Trev No7 it's difficult to give them a chance at 12 and 13. And Cochrane wanted to go to Hearts.
21 Jan 2018 02:33:43
Tyler Roberts on loan, 4mil rated striker.
21 Jan 2018 07:44:34
If that happens then I think morelos is off I hope not he has potential
21 Jan 2018 09:04:13
Read this morning we would be looking for around 2million for moralos I would be fuming if we sold him for that he is a goal scorer he works hard and he is still going to improve he has got to be worth a lot more than just 2million.
21 Jan 2018 09:48:34
I would drive Morelos down to Bristol myself if we were getting £2m for him but there’s no danger they’re going to bid that for him.
21 Jan 2018 09:49:01
I have been impressed with our business so far in this window but if they let Moralos go for anything near £2m I’ll be really disappointed
He still has over two years left on his contract
We should be looking to extend his contract not sell him
21 Jan 2018 10:14:01
i can not see us selling morelos this window we already knocked bids back for windass so can not see us selling our top goalscorer but with the finacial problems at our club i think the board would probaly accept bids of 3 million is that a good price probaly but ad much rather keep the lad and build a team around him as that vaule will grow further as he gets better
21 Jan 2018 10:21:32
Be will be our top scorer with the right service he could get 25+ goals
21 Jan 2018 10:24:48
Hold out for 10m even dumbellend is put in his place by Morelos
21 Jan 2018 10:35:30
The head scout for Bristol City is on twitter stating this is fake news. Search under est consultancy and look through the tweets and replies.
21 Jan 2018 10:43:48
I'm looking forward to seeing a team with Morelos and Cummings up front so I hope Morelos isn't sold!
21 Jan 2018 13:07:14
Rick, come on you’re at the wind up surely. Just a question. see when wee Nacho put away the penalty against fiorentina, did you complain that it should’ve went in the top corner? Nothing is ever good enough for you
21 Jan 2018 13:20:49
Rick, you would drive him down yourself he's top goalscorer in league and only getting better, not making sense.
21 Jan 2018 13:35:37
Morelos is nowhere near the quality that everyone is raving about. Top scorer yes, will he be at the end of the season? His touch is poor and in the old firm game he was nowhere. Kept making the wrong decisions. On top of that, he himself probably only wants a move to England so i doubt he is even comitted to Rangers
21 Jan 2018 14:53:31
China you don't half talk utter single fish mate. Morelos was really unlucky in the old firm, any other day and he scores. Did you no see him torment their defence or rip the pish out of brown. Morelos is showing the 30million man how its done.
21 Jan 2018 14:55:28
Drive him down yourself?I f we sell him that's just bloody stupid! A lot more to come from him should be offering him a new contract! He's top scorer in spl!
21 Jan 2018 15:00:46
China got disagree morelos will become a quality player who will score a lot with the right coaching
in the old firm who had the chances for is to score morelos he got into the postion needed and was unlucky not to score that day the lad can also hold up the ball he has all the right attributies you would want for striker
21 Jan 2018 16:54:09
Blue89 I think your getting a wee bit silly with your nacho novo penalty against fiorentina statement there. I just don’t rate the guy like a lot of folk on here do. As I’ve said before, he’s not even worth £2m never mind the silly figures that have been banded about this forum for months hence if we get offered £2m then I would happily pick him up and drive him down to Bristol myself and even stop at a little chef on the way down if he wanted to I would be that happy.
21 Jan 2018 17:25:12
He’s young and Raw, sure his hold up and link up play could improve but he’s a grafter and a goal scorer who will only improve with experience and having another Striker or advanced 10 to play off.
Like Windass I think he’s worth closer to £3m than 1 but would be mad to sell.
21 Jan 2018 17:40:59
Whether you rate him or not Rick his first time finishing proves he is a goalscorer, and they are worth their weight in gold to desperate English teams with wads of TVs cash burning holes in their pockets. He would be mad to want to leave at the moment and we would be mad to let him go. So it's a mute point for me presently.
21 Jan 2018 17:29:36
Bristol City's scout for Scotland has said online the story is nonsense.
21 Jan 2018 17:30:26
Bristol head scout for Scotland replied to that rumour on twitter from the sun stating that it's lazy journalism and that they don't have any interest in Morelos
21 Jan 2018 17:34:17
Kirk Willoughby, the son of Alex Willoughby, is the Bristol scout up here and he says this is utter rubbish.
21 Jan 2018 17:36:19
Right service? He missed 2 sitters against celtic.
21 Jan 2018 18:05:19
Don’t rate him? 😂😂 jeezo. We should probably go for a Ronaldo or Messi right? No doubt you would complain they’re to old 😂😂
21 Jan 2018 18:16:19
Morelos is the man ()
21 Jan 2018 18:27:41
Cameron1 have to disagree with you there, they were really good/ lucky saves from, Gordon and not sitters.
21 Jan 2018 20:41:34
Rick, you do realise its not YOU that gets the 2 million for driving him down? He's worth a heck of a lot more to us than 6 months service and a 1 million pound profit. How much would we spend trying to replace him?
21 Jan 2018 22:15:12
Morelos is young he's getting into the right positions, just a bit more composure will see the chances he missing start to go in.
22 Jan 2018 09:36:46
Aye I know that pappy. That’s my point about being happy to drive him down and even feeding the guy at the service station.
22 Jan 2018 12:26:36
Alex he missed a free header from 6 yards, out it by the post.
