According to Scott Burns, John Souttar has been offered a new deal by Rangers with improved terms until summer of 2028.

08 Dec 2025 18:20:42
Should be on reduced terms and only kept as a backup to 2 new CBs if at all. Good for homegrown quota but apart from that I'd let him go.

08 Dec 2025 18:22:50
Improved terms😳
Nothing like rewarding failure.

08 Dec 2025 19:04:28
It's time for Souttar to leave.
We need better.

08 Dec 2025 19:11:57
Jesus Christ. I'm having a drink 🫡.

08 Dec 2025 19:19:44
I'm pointed it out in his first season he had 9 individual mistakes that cost us games from balls in the air and I believe that number has nearly tripled he's good on the ball and in the tackle but one of the worst airial centre half's I've ever seen.

08 Dec 2025 19:21:28
We need home grown players in the squad for Europe, and more generally I think it's important we have a good number of Scots in and around the team. I don't know what he's on now, and how much more we'd give him, but either way he should be a squad player rather than a first pick.

We need better if we're going to compete for titles again.

08 Dec 2025 19:21:42
I hope so, would be a big miss if he left.

08 Dec 2025 19:30:37
Yes we need better but he is our best CB at moment and we need another four defenders in summer so was expecting a deal offered.

08 Dec 2025 19:35:28
Glad hearing that, it would need to be an increase, he's on around 12k, get far more in the championship, we need the best Scottish players, would love him being a back up though, then we've signed quality.

08 Dec 2025 19:36:08
Been absolutely honking this season no way he deserves a new deal. If he does get one should be reduced wages take it or leave it squad player.

08 Dec 2025 19:45:41
Let me get this straight, MyStar.
You want to give him an increase in wages to be 3rd or 4th choice?
Jesus wept, have we learnt nothing from the past?

08 Dec 2025 19:50:34
Really hope so. Top player.

08 Dec 2025 19:56:30
If he wasn't Scottish then we wouldn't be offering him a new contract.

08 Dec 2025 19:58:01
Not sure how we need four defenders, keep Souttar Tav Nsiala fernandes Cornelius Sterling.

That's a league winning defence.

08 Dec 2025 20:12:54
tough for CB's when full backs are no very good.

08 Dec 2025 20:18:44
so we need a core of Scottish players in our team but don't want to keep our Scottish players. so where is this core coming from as there aren't a lot of quality Scottish players playing in the SPL. name a better Scottish Centre half we can afford; actually no just name one is hard enough.

players will only, I feel, be good enough if we win titles but that isn't the pre-requisite to being good as there are lots of good players out there who will never win one. until recently Harry Kane was a name on that list.

08 Dec 2025 20:27:18
Mph 12k is nothing for a good cb, he'd double his wage in the championship, I'm talking around 15k, much you paying for a good back up cb?, much is Fernandez on?

08 Dec 2025 20:28:00
Angus simple replace them with better

Jack Milne, that was so easy as well

Also Angus I cannot believe you r comparing our serial failures with Kane.

08 Dec 2025 20:29:36
Mph we were paying over 30k, that was the problem, look at Tavernier now, we're talking less that double his wage, Souttar doesn't get offered more than 12k, then he'll not be a Rangers player.

08 Dec 2025 20:40:11
Need more than a couple of good cb's, I wouldn't mind Souttar and Fernandez as squad players.

08 Dec 2025 20:40:48
Absolutely delighted Souttar has been offered a new deal. I've followed his career since he made his debut for Dundee Utd. A terrific defender for the level he's currently playing at (I accept he has the odd brain fart moment). Souttar does the basics really well. He wins the majority of his headers, loves to throw his body on the line and block shots, reads the game really well. Very good passer of the ball. Actually, watch his short passes (EHL might agree due to being a coach). Every 5-10 yard pass Souttar makes is always in front of the player. Exactly how a ball should be passed when the other player is in space. A lot of people pass the ball behind the player which causes a break in momentum.

To have 4 defenders and Souttar being one of them (also Scottish ✅). I hope he signs, I'll be delighted.

08 Dec 2025 21:17:12
With better players around him and played in a role that suits his game I'm confident Souttar can be part of a successful team.

I will say again, Celtic have won multiple trophies and titles using Scales in the exact same manner.

08 Dec 2025 22:05:20
Angus "players will only be good enough if we win titles". Surely that's the other way round? We only win titles if players are good enough. Souttar is among those who has consistently shown he's not.

And is part of the poor leadership group. If we need to keep him for sake of homegrown rule then fine but we need far better than him if we want to win again. He must be a back up at best.

08 Dec 2025 22:06:49
I'm in the keep Souttar camp. With better players around him he will do well, certainly good part of the squad if not a 1st choice starter.

08 Dec 2025 22:09:29
Angus glad to see you're back but trying to use the Kane comparison is laughable as he was playing in one of the toughest leagues in the world for a team that generally was maybe top 6 and Kane more than did his part to try and drag them to winning things for a club he loves. Can you say the same for this group of players?

Souttar staying as back up and only back up would be fine for me as long as he is on reduced terms and used only when needed. He isn't good enough to be a starter for us.

08 Dec 2025 22:23:37
John, so you are comparing young Milne who has had 22 starts for Aberdeen and 60 minutes in 3 U21 games with Souttar a full international who has played at the top level for over 300 games.

that is patently ridiculous. so my question still is who is currently better that we can replace him with now who is Scottish. it isn't currently jack Milne. I would sign him but not to directly replace Souttar in every game. oh and until a few seasons ago Harry Kane was the archetypal serial failure never winning a trophy at Spurs.

in fact they only won the trophy when he left (ironic really). the point though was that there are a number of talented footballers who have never won a league trophy in spite of their obvious talent; lots of other factors are relevant. In Kane's case I would suggest stronger, richer clubs in EPL at the same time as he played here. sort of similar to the stronger Celtic team since we won 55.

09 Dec 2025 02:35:46
Ive never been a Souttar fan but i'd still pick him over

Tav davies cornielious Djiga at cb

Crazy to think how bad our defense has been yet same amount conceeded as hearts and two more than celtic.

09 Dec 2025 04:54:41
Paul, many reasons why Souttar hasn't played to his best form for Rangers this season and surely who'll know a good few of the reasons 🤔To help you along, check out his outstanding performances for Scotland mate 🤔.

09 Dec 2025 07:11:22
Angus saying John is being ridiculous and then using Harry Kane as an example is even more ridiculous. It nothing about how many trophies. It's use your eyes. Kane was the best player at his club, still a world class player regardless of trophies and breaking records both at club and international level, Souttar is a bang average CB who has been major part of a poor defence for years and has let us down time and again.

Granted there may not be many other Scottish CBs so don't sign one. We can have Scots in other positions If needed.

09 Dec 2025 07:23:44
My only worry with soapy when we signed was his knee issue, and he has played a lot more games for us than i predicted. Def worth keeping around the place.

09 Dec 2025 07:31:32
Genuinely hope Souttar stays. Martin's tactics absolutely ruined the confidence of the defence this season Telling them to keep a hold of the ball for as long as possible is madness. On his day Souttar is the best defender in the country and people really need to watch what wish for sometimes.

Just because they want better players doesn't mean that better players automatically come in when they get rid of the guys they are running for.

09 Dec 2025 07:35:25
Angus yes is that not allowed sorry for having an opinion.

09 Dec 2025 07:40:04
So, Scottish international centre half who will probably be playing in the World Cup next summer isn't good enough for Rangers, according to some.

Good grief.

09 Dec 2025 07:53:39
Born not for 1.5 minium wage over two years in Kay addons and signing on fee.
We are trying to win 56 some day. They will be at 60 long before we have a team capable of winning a league.

09 Dec 2025 08:04:06
Ah, but remember bruisedbear - Souttar doesn't care about Rangers and prioritised Scotland over Rangers when he opted to delay his operation.

Remember, when he missed a grand total of no games due to it, was back on time for preseason, represented his country and secured a starting spot in the national side that was apparently never going to qualify for the world cup anyway.

Sometimes our fans just like to dislike our players - it used to be one or two, but now it's pretty much the majority of the squad.

09 Dec 2025 08:09:19
Also Kane was slagged of only by rival fans who were looking for a reason to have a dig. Like him or not (I personally don't) His own fans at both club and country adored him because season after season he consistently performed wonders breaking record and was by far their star player.

Can hardly say that about Souttar. He was a weak link when we had better players around him EHL but now they've all gone and not been replaced we're meant to view him as the best?

09 Dec 2025 08:10:44
John you are allowed an opinion but any time your opinion or posts are challenged you react in this same way. it is a forum for debate so both can pout forward their opinion I just happen to disagree with yours and as we are all allowed an opinion that is surely okay.

09 Dec 2025 08:13:16
Am I right in saying sources only on 8k a week. Others on treble that.

09 Dec 2025 08:18:10
Kaiser I am not questioning Kane's ability though. I am arguing against the point that any player at a team who hasn't won a trophy is a serial loser. surely Kane is the perfect example of that not being the case.
so we may not win trophies but during that time we have had good players (not as good as Kane granted before someone takes offence). there are other reasons why we don't win obviously.

yes we don't have to have any Scottish players but fans somehow seem to think we need that Scottish core so surely having a CB who will be going to the World Cup with his country is sensible. my opinion is that to claim he is worse than a 22 yo with 20 games under his belt isn't correct (at this time). Jack is a decent level headed young lad (I know his family) but even he would be surprised by that claim.

09 Dec 2025 08:27:02
It's a no brainer to offer Souttar a new deal. As far as we're all led to believe, there was nearly one signed under Clement and the club paused talks due to the takeover etc so it makes sense it's now. If you are going to move for Jack Milne as well, makes sense.

Gives us the opportunity to go sign 2 really outstanding centre halves for decent cash to complement the others. Nsiala has shown 0 for me and should leave. Fernandes looks okay but need 2 really exceptional defenders.

09 Dec 2025 08:31:14
EHL the fans dislike the players because they win nothing year after year despite being the best paid in the country more often than not.

09 Dec 2025 08:55:54
Bruisedbear exaxt same could be said of Grant Hanley, should we be going for him from Hibs or others like him just because they're Scots going to a world Cup?. Nothing to do with dislike EHL, it's about wanting better than we've been. If we want to improve we need to sign better than those we had for last rew years.

Simple as that. Souttar was 3rd choice when we had Goldson and Balogun, them leaving and not being properly replaced didn't suddenly make Souttar a better player. Only ever been a backup in the eyes of most fans and to give him a pay rise to hopefully become one again with new signings made is madness as MPH said.

09 Dec 2025 08:58:48
Ehl glad u come round to my way off thinking. His priority is Scotland.

09 Dec 2025 09:02:11
Squabbling children!

Souttar isn't brilliant but he's needed and is better than Scales in a championship wining squad!

There are bigger problems ahead than Souttar re-signing and solving an issue.

It's sensible decision making.

Move on!
Next.

09 Dec 2025 09:40:59
Angus Can u explain why Souttars replacement must be Scottish. I can find nothing in Urfa rules that says this. The four Rangers trained or associated trained can be any nationality and play in any position.

09 Dec 2025 09:50:16
So John Souttar is the reason we don't win the league? deary dear man.

09 Dec 2025 09:54:28
The old Souttar debate, if he wasn't Scottish the people that want him to stay would want him punted as well. He wasn't good enough last year either it's not just this season.

Play to his strengths? So we are building a team round an injury prone CB that isn't good enough and we wonder why we are in a mess 🤯.

Angus you react the same way with every player that someone wants punted. You can't think every player we have is good enough as that is impossible but that's what you do on here.

09 Dec 2025 09:54:42
Ehl, I'm entitled to my view.

09 Dec 2025 10:02:03
Seems there is a mixed reception to this, for me its a no brainer, he has been a stalwart for us. I don't think anyone could argue we are better with him in the starting 11, he bring experience, he knows the league, he knows the club, he will be soon going to a WC.

We have to learn from the experience of letting players go just because we think the grass might be greener. Having some of the younger lads next to him for a few seasons is a good thing and something that will serve the club well.

09 Dec 2025 10:10:08
Angus you're comparing a ""serial loser" only in the eyes of jealous rivals who'd love him in their team who always performs year after year and a star player in his team with "serial losers" who don't and aren't. It's a poor comparison.

09 Dec 2025 10:10:11
Exactly what is wrong with our club (mismanagement) offering a failure a huge increase in salary! Should be lucky to get a new contract on reduced terms.

09 Dec 2025 10:11:25
Souttar is far and away our best defender and we need to keep him at the club. How many games did he miss for Rangers? Sum and total of zero.

Nsiala, Fernandes and Sterling being good replacements? Really? Souttar is twice the player of any of them. Nsiala will never be a player and Sterling can't stay fit for more than a couple of games but let's just pin our hopes on them eh? Utter madness.

09 Dec 2025 10:48:02
I'm all for Souttar signing a new deal - feel he's worth it - good player imo.

09 Dec 2025 11:04:42
Angus, simply because you personalised it, not a dig at others just me.

09 Dec 2025 11:05:23
I would keep Souttar but only as a squad player and on the same deal.

09 Dec 2025 11:07:30
My star, I cannot believe give u a dozen names why we don't win the league, but in 75 years I've seen plenty league wins, so if we go another nine so what?

It's strange how u and others criticise supporters who want better players.

09 Dec 2025 11:47:48
John I disagree with the point you made so obviously it personalises it. I would suggest that you don't like to be challenged given your responses to anyone who does so I will refrain from doing so in future or at least try.
He doesn't have to be Scottish but I was commenting on fans wanting a Scottish core but then none of the Scottish players we have or want to buy are then good enough.

Storm I am picking on the cliched point of fans continually calling our team/players serial loser (s). The dictionary definition being "an individual or team that consistently fails to achieve success, particularly in repeated attempts, such as losing in finals or failing in various endeavours despite effort or talent". so there are other reasons for which teams/players can lose despite effort and talent. Harry Kane was my attempt to show that as no-one could deny his undoubted talent and the effort he put in whilst at Spurs.
I have now given up 🤷.

09 Dec 2025 11:50:53
Do the bouncy I take it you miss the sarcasm.

09 Dec 2025 11:54:24
John so Souttar is the reason Rangers don't win the league, want better players? I just said I'd be happy with Souttar as back up, where is the better players mentioned like?

09 Dec 2025 12:18:05
My star I mentioned better players. I'm sick off it twist twist twist.

We struggle to win anything with our teams.

My sky what I'm saying is 750 plus per year as back up. No thank u imo

Glad u will ignore me Angus least I van enjoy the site, as always u missed the point, u challenged my view no one else's, which is same as mine, ie don't resign Souttar

Ps folks Souttar agent finds pay increase to low.

09 Dec 2025 12:23:53
Nobody is saying we shouldn't sign better players, that's how teams improve. However, when a lesser player is mentioned as a replacement, that needs to be called out and corrected.

09 Dec 2025 12:28:26
My star i didn't realise his wage was that much lower than the likes of tav etc mate, and if he is used as back up/rotation, he's not just a number, he will be fighting for a starting spot, getting more out of himself and the guy wearing the shirt he wants in the process.

09 Dec 2025 12:31:16
John that wage is cheap for a good cb in my eyes, we need better backups than we currently have.

09 Dec 2025 12:40:57
I would get rid of Tav and get him off the wage bill.
2 rb needed or can we convert someone as back up or youth.
Soutter stay,
nsiala not picked by last two managers so based on that maybe not good enough.
Djega bye bye.
Fernandez is an enigma.

See good things then school boys errors.
Cornelius. He is no Balagun. Not for me.
We need 2 more CB to fight out with Soutter. Keep Fernandez just now as back up but jury is out.
Magoma I like need another to compete with him.

09 Dec 2025 12:59:28
BornRuffian, yes Souttar is not on a big wage mate, sign a couple of cb's and let them fight it out for a place in the team, we certainly need better backups than we have now, Souttar is on around half of what Sterling earns, around a third of Tavernier's.

09 Dec 2025 13:51:05
Do the bouncy who in your opinion is a lesser player. That needs called out

My star I don't agree, these type off wages have nearly broken our club twice.

09 Dec 2025 13:53:53
My star we need better players than we currently have.

Peter I too have concerns re Cornelius re pace and duels. His injury might end our interest imo.

09 Dec 2025 13:59:13
So it's agreed Souttar is good value for money right now and we can't sign anyone on that money who is better. Btw how bad is Djiga when he couldn't get in a woeful Wolves side? Does he cost more than Souttar and generally how do we think he's doing just now?

09 Dec 2025 16:14:37
Gers we allegedly pay 15 k a week for Djiga, imo he is a very poor player.

09 Dec 2025 17:05:02
Djiga is one of the worst defenders at Ibrox in a long time.

10 Dec 2025 09:57:50
Souttar is a better DEFENDER than anyone we've signed since Goldson at his peak arguable toward the end and Bassey.

Nsiala
Fernandez
Cornelius
Propper
Djiga
Davies
King
Balogun
Yefko.

10 Dec 2025 12:58:55
Souttars nowhere near the level of Bassey, not even close.

Neither is his brother.

I'd take 1 bassey over both of them.

Young Calvin was pure class and near impossible to beat 1 on 1,
back pocketed both Nkunku and Bellingham, during his no1 defender in the Europa competition run while with us, with much ease.

Easily our best CB in the last 13 yrs, since our demotion in 2012.

08 Dec 2025 04:13:54
Ehl, do u have any info or much knowledge of the new hearts winger ismael cherneckov, excuse the spelling, khasakstan international and the deals donw he Kent's in next week. Ready to start in January.

08 Dec 2025 07:34:38
Kent's been off the boil since his last season with us. Not sure I would take him now maybe's aye, maybe's naw. End of the season perhaps.
Reckon he's lost the hunger and fight. Not really played much in the last few yrs or scored a goal.

08 Dec 2025 08:06:11
Think Kent was a typo Gvb tho agree it's a no for me anyway. 😜.

08 Dec 2025 10:14:08
Yea it was a typo should read he JETS in next week.

07 Dec 2025 18:19:39
David Watson from Kilmarnock. Anyone hearing this?

07 Dec 2025 19:54:57
Yep being doing the rounds for over a year.

07 Dec 2025 19:58:21
Found this:
Club Interest: Rangers, Celtic, Hearts, English Championship sides.

Player: David Watson, Scotland U21 international midfielder for Kilmarnock.

Contract: Expires in Summer 2026; he can sign a pre-contract in January 2026.

Rangers' Stance: See him as a homegrown solution, eager to sign him, possibly in January for a reduced fee.

Watson's Stance: Reportedly keen on joining Rangers.

Kilmarnock's Stance: Open to a winter sale to avoid losing him for free.

Why the Interest?

Talent: Highly-rated young Scottish talent with significant potential.

Homegrown Status: Fills a key homegrown requirement for Scottish clubs.

Versatility: Can play various midfield roles (holding, box-to-box, playmaker).

Experience: Despite his age (20), he has Europa/Conference League experience.

The situation is developing, but Rangers are in a strong position to land the midfielder if they can agree on terms this winter, notes FootballTransfers. com.

07 Dec 2025 20:11:48
Apparently been watching him for quite a while.

07 Dec 2025 19:26:23
Im sure someone posted last week. Tbh I've not been overly impressed when he plays against us but that's lonited to judge.

07 Dec 2025 20:41:49
I've seen his name mentioned several times on here.

07 Dec 2025 20:48:30
Didn't realise out of contract this year. Well worth a move for him then before someone else snaps him up.

07 Dec 2025 20:56:46
Worth a punt but I don't think he is good enough on the ball, has that get stuck in attitude though and might improve with "better" players.

07 Dec 2025 21:56:14
I think he may be another who is dusting off their passport.

07 Dec 2025 22:13:11
Still only 20? Be worth signing now and assess him for next few months and the summer with a view to a years loan if he's not quite ready come the summer.

07 Dec 2025 22:25:49
I've always liked Kilmarnock midfielder david watson and hope we do sign him Fork 🙏But if Celtic are interested and him being a Celtic supporter, if they are in for him, i feel that's where he'll go ☹️.

07 Dec 2025 23:29:21
Ehl are u hearing he's off to Italy mate.

07 Dec 2025 23:52:00
He's not a Celtic fan.

08 Dec 2025 04:50:44
Gers he 100 percent is he and his family are big Celtic fans.

08 Dec 2025 05:13:56
"Still only 20? Be worth signing now and assess him for next few months and the summer with a view to a years loan if he's not quite ready come the summer. "

Why would we need to put him on a year loan? Why would he not be ready? He's been playing regularly for the last 3 seasons.

08 Dec 2025 07:27:56
Not sure Stevie, has offers from a number of countries, including teams from Switzerland and Austria who are European regulars.

08 Dec 2025 07:36:39
I would like to intertwine some good Scottish players throughout the team, I feel the balance has to have at least 3 or 4 in the team to thrive in Scottish football, the much maligned Barron being a great example of how grit and determination can give that extra 10 % and rub off on others.

08 Dec 2025 09:09:18
whether he supports them or us doesn't matter, players go where they feel the best contract and terms are.

its their career here not who they support.

do agree though if all else is equal he would likely go to celtic.

08 Dec 2025 09:36:47
He ain't gona play for them probably not play for us either.

08 Dec 2025 09:56:03
Really want more Scottish players and have heard rumblings about Watson for about a year but I'm honestly not too sure about him.

08 Dec 2025 10:18:05
Ehl cheers mate

Scottw, cause aftet assessing him he may not be ready to take a place in the squad that provides him with enough minutes at his crucial age to keep progressing.

He's only 20, meeds to be playing regularly, even as a sub is good. Not in the stands.
Hence a loan, happens all the time in fi or ball Thata the point in loans.
It's n out to get rid of duds we just seem to think that is all it's for.

08 Dec 2025 10:48:14
I agree that but we need to be carful look at Michael O'Halloran going to Celtic games and not giving his all imo most pros will but I still remember that C##t doing that.

08 Dec 2025 12:46:39
We signed Cameron who was excellent at Dundee and look at the amount of minutes he has played for the first team.
Watson would he be a 1st team regular, not so sure?

08 Dec 2025 11:10:29
I can see him going to Italy 🇮🇹.

08 Dec 2025 14:36:16
They will need the money as not many turning up to watch them, they could fill more seats but cut nose off to spite face, tinpot club going down.

08 Dec 2025 20:13:59
There are many small Celtic fans too.

09 Dec 2025 02:38:05
Surely he takes one look at Cameron and says nope!

Better for him to go abroad
Cameron doesn't have asich compitition in his role as watson would have.

09 Dec 2025 04:57:52
But remember lyall Cameron wasn't Danny Rohl's signing forever, whereas if we do sign david watson he will be Danny Rohl's signing and there lies your answer mate 🤔.

07 Dec 2025 14:29:01
Jónas Boldt has had discussions with the Rangers board.

07 Dec 2025 14:39:54
Asathor, know nothing about him mate, who would he be replacing?

07 Dec 2025 14:44:29
Cheers buddy good to see you back hope u and the family are well my friend.

07 Dec 2025 14:57:36
Was he no sacked by Hamburg.

07 Dec 2025 15:03:23
Asa this guy has a good pedigree.

07 Dec 2025 15:04:47
My Star that would be Thelwell.

07 Dec 2025 15:23:33
Boldt was at Bayer Leverkusen before he moved to SV Hamburg and has an excellent CV and unearthed some high profile players in world football.

07 Dec 2025 15:36:56
Sounds interesting.

07 Dec 2025 15:39:20
Cheers Asa, gd to hear from u👍.

07 Dec 2025 15:53:59
I have missed conversing with the like of you fork my friend.
I think it's still best I just keep things fee and far though.
I can't be bothered with arguments and I know I am to blame also but my posts do tend to trigger some.

I have heard about 4 Germans and 1 Spaniard so far in the D. O. F role.

Boldt and Mislintat are the most exciting in my opinion.

07 Dec 2025 15:56:58
Cheers Asa know nothing about him. Do u think he would be a good appointment?

07 Dec 2025 16:10:05
Cheers Asathor 👍.

07 Dec 2025 16:18:56
Kaiser i believe he should have been the appointment in the summer. I would say he would be the upgrade on Koppen we were hoping for.

07 Dec 2025 16:51:18
Mislintat with no compensation to pay would be my preference.

07 Dec 2025 16:56:12
Always on here at some point bud, nice to hear your info as usual👍.

07 Dec 2025 16:57:22
Was talk of Schmadtke in the media over here bud.

07 Dec 2025 17:01:52
He is one of the names I heard mentioned but only media stuff on that one.

07 Dec 2025 17:04:35
Fork i believe Jorg would more likely be a replacement for Stewart.

07 Dec 2025 17:23:09
If you don't mind me asking Asa who would you prefer between the two of boldt or mislintat as our possible new sporting director mate 🤔By the way really nice to have you back posting on here my friend 👍.

07 Dec 2025 17:42:50
Asa u picking up anything on ceo, i'm told we would prefer to appoint him first, mb an internal appointment.

07 Dec 2025 17:58:56
Was thinking that myself bud.

07 Dec 2025 18:25:57
Not hearing much John, I believe James Taylor is the only real internal option long term.
Jorg Schmadtke has been a managing director before and that is equivalent in Germany to the position of CEO.

07 Dec 2025 18:29:04
SWS both ste exceptional but I have always wanted Boldt. Would love Max Luftl as head of recruitment also.

07 Dec 2025 18:21:56
Good to hear from you Asa. This guy does he have a good reputation.

07 Dec 2025 19:56:05
Thanks for your reply Asa.

07 Dec 2025 20:36:05
No need to thank me my friend.

08 Dec 2025 16:30:35
Good to see you posting ASA and good info as usual. 👍.

09 Dec 2025 02:38:54
Was he not inplicated in dodgy dealings in germany?

09 Dec 2025 07:41:04
Who were saying Aasgaard was a World beater?

07 Dec 2025 14:18:27
Anyone ITK have any info re Cameron not getting minutes? It seems he is not favoured or? Just feel for him making the move and being on the bench constantly. If this continues I wouldn't blame him in looking to move on as he needs games. Just my opinion.

07 Dec 2025 15:25:24
I know his family are wanting him to move on. There was an issue with Thelwell and martin, but obviously they are not here now. Ehl said personal issues. But who knows certainly not any worse than what we have playing.

07 Dec 2025 15:37:57
I believe he had some personal familt issues just last few weeks.
He has also had some injury problems.

He is better than dio imo.

07 Dec 2025 15:51:55
Is he not carrying a little niggle I'm sure he had a slight injury might not be 100 percent right yet.

07 Dec 2025 19:10:48
I feel for Cameron technically has wasn't either off the current or even last manager signing… but he's a good player… I think him and Barron would be a good midfield partnership. And both are hard working players with plenty of fighting them.

07 Dec 2025 20:42:06
Who cares what Thelwell etc thought about anyone. Complete idiots. Clean slate for everyone until Rohl decides otherwise.

06 Dec 2025 17:41:51
On an aside Rangers watched Bowie today. I'm being told we think we could get him for about 2.5 million with addons and a sell on,

We have also looked at couple of players in under 23 league at Chelsea and Liverpool.

06 Dec 2025 18:37:19
Ta WJ.

06 Dec 2025 18:43:36
What's everyone's opinion on Bowie? he looks decent but has fallen away.

06 Dec 2025 18:56:13
Would take Bowie no problem.

06 Dec 2025 19:16:52
My brother in law is a Hibs season ticket holder so we talk about Bowie slot and his feeling about Bowie is he's a good player likes a battle with defenders but a lot of the time doesn't find himself in goal scoring positions.
Could be because of how hibs set up.

06 Dec 2025 19:33:38
So bowie and murry as our front line a hate to disrespect people but that no true and wish people would stop posting things just for a reaction.

06 Dec 2025 19:43:22
We should be looking at Chelsea for centre half's

Their record of bringing through central defenders is best in league and I can't think of any in Europe better at continually bringing defenders through.

06 Dec 2025 19:55:13
Think Bowie better than we have. But is he another one season wonder? That's my main concern.

06 Dec 2025 19:58:25
Bowie looks to be a bit of an all round striker, one that we don't have. For the right price I'd take a chance on him.

06 Dec 2025 20:53:39
Scott he's not a all-round striker at all a don't you think we need 2 go past players that we take a chance on and bring in proven goal scorer.

06 Dec 2025 20:59:24
Dylan so you r saying Rangers did not have a scout at the game, very interesting,

06 Dec 2025 21:20:07
Scored two the day but never been overly impressed by him any time I have seen him play.

06 Dec 2025 21:21:23
Ignore him John.

06 Dec 2025 21:27:30
Yes am 100% sure Rangers aren't after the 2 players named and what game are you talking about are can't just say a scout was at a game.

06 Dec 2025 21:34:04
Gees peace storm ignore him why because a have a different opinion and if anyone should be in ignored it you mate all you do is make stuff up and then clame you heard it first hand.

06 Dec 2025 21:57:06
😂😂😂😂😂.

06 Dec 2025 22:44:57
Dylan I'll make it simple for u, we had a scout at hibs v Falkirk watching Bowie, u r effectively calling me a liar, but don't worry I keep it to myself in future.

Lovely chat with our new owner tonight, he is learning fast, this guy really wants to talk to supporters.

06 Dec 2025 22:50:34
John, I value your comments. Dylan, U made a fool of yourself.

06 Dec 2025 22:55:44
Let's hope so John as his first 6 months in charge has been awful 👍👍✌️.

06 Dec 2025 22:56:33
Cheers John, be happy with that.

06 Dec 2025 23:02:26
No seen much of Bowie, bar that wonder goal he scored. But we do need promising Scottish players at the club mixed with experience. Yhe next chris boys wouldnae go a miss.

06 Dec 2025 23:17:28
Yately, I don't agree, if he had not completed the take over we were in serious trouble

Franco we r targeting some Scottish players at present.

06 Dec 2025 23:21:58
Like Bowie… but not a goal scorer….

06 Dec 2025 23:39:42
Like Bowie, gets himself about and has better hold up play than anything we have, hard to say if he could be the no9 we need, might be a star if coached and we play to suit him and the odds say we must must get one transfer right.

06 Dec 2025 23:59:01
I think that's a great price for him John what's your thoughts when he was banging them in I think he would of been north of £5million for me every player has a goal drought.

07 Dec 2025 00:41:32
Hi John, I watched Bowie a couple of times.
He's tall (about 6ft 2in) and quite strong.
He is able to mix his game up, taking it in or running beyond.
He's a leftie and seems to have some power and pace.
So there we are, the old fashioned TIPS scouting system (Technique, Intelligence, Pace, Strength) is in his favour.
Will he bring goals?

07 Dec 2025 01:17:25
John, I am not judging the takeover mate at all, it's the Russell Martin situation and the cash wasted. I understand the 49ers own the club, but guys like us put our cash in, every year and we deserved better! I pray we turn it around on the next year or so as we all deserve it! 🇬🇧.

07 Dec 2025 02:33:07
John you said in the past we had signed Boyle from hibs.

07 Dec 2025 07:19:27
John do you think we have a very good chance in signing kieran bowie from hibs and would he be a good foil for bojan Miovski 🤔.

07 Dec 2025 08:27:25
"Rangers Rumours" the name is in the site, u want 100% accuracy then your on the wrong site.

07 Dec 2025 08:30:46
Dylan no I never, I said we were interested but he rejected us.

Walter no idea, better not upset Dylan with a rumour on a rumour site.

07 Dec 2025 08:31:03
People from Edinburgh have a penchant for foil I've heard😉😇.

07 Dec 2025 08:58:00
Personally I've never been over impressed with Bowie, but I've only ever watched him against us. He goes down like he's been shot everytime someone is near him.

07 Dec 2025 09:05:17
So Bob Dylan the new oracle, if you don't mind could you inform us to where our scouts were and whom they watched please? Or do you just revel in disputing other people's information?

07 Dec 2025 09:16:33
And swimming in very unhygienic toilets, don't they have domestos over there. 😛.

07 Dec 2025 09:37:39
John thanks again for the info, and please keep posting those rumours. Must be good having that chat with owner. Like that he tries to engage. After a bad start I think he's getting it now what's it about and also he could actually be into something really special here.

Any idea who the others Scots we are looking at? Thought Watson was good last night, know we've been watching but not sure if he'd improve us though, Bowie would just be a squad player I think and it's starters we need unfortunately.

07 Dec 2025 09:48:35
Be serious Shota, even domestos doesn't work over there.

07 Dec 2025 11:31:20
He's a better option than Chermiti and Danilo.
Different kind of player to Miovski end of the day i think I'd rather pay like 3 mill for Bowie than anything we payed for the first two I mentioned.

07 Dec 2025 11:01:24
I wish I had £1 every time John said he won't post anymore rumours. John ignore the odd one who questions you.

07 Dec 2025 12:07:56
Deary me, once again the attacks on people providing rumours is a complete joke.

There are loads of fans that hold back from the site because of this. It took me years before engaging, fairly new poster but toally p's me off reading that stuff. I'm on hear to hear rumours, perhaps give some views on the rumour and have a laugh but no wonder some posters go offline. there are a few ITK that aren't posting right now - no wonder.

Admin, surely there are rules of conduct or simply you don't approve the post? I'm not having a go at you as we appreciate the work that you do. However, as a site I think we would have more rumours to debate if we didn't have posts that take us off the thread and turn into personal attacks.

Thanks, Mr Gumpy rant over lol!

{Ed001's Note - so you want no one to be able to question a rumour? What is the point if no one can discuss it?}

07 Dec 2025 12:15:50
Thanks for the information John, when I look back at when we have been successful we have always had a core of Scottish lads or players that have played in Scotland for a few years so I like that we are looking to home grown talent.

IMO he would be a good signing.

> Mio played well last night and I still think he will come good.
> As for Danny, he is a lovely guy and a hard worker but it just hasn't worked out for him and I think he would be revitalised by a move away.
> Chermiti we need to sell/loan there is no whiff of hope

Bowie would be a good back up to Mio, offer something different but also have an opportunity to challenge Mio. Knows the league and lower risk option at fee banded about.

Please keep the rumours coming!

07 Dec 2025 12:23:46
Ed. There a difference between debating rumours and making someone out to be liar for passing on info. Or trying to tell folk to stop posting rumours on a rumours site. Think that's what puts some off.

Personally I enjoy the ridiculous rumours and discussion as much as the factual info ones like John provide on the site, but can understand why some don't like to share.

{Ed001's Note - I have never seen anyone tell others to stop posting rumours, if I did I would delete the post. If it was repeated, I would ban the poster for saying it.}

07 Dec 2025 12:51:58
John you've been on long enough to know just to ignore it. He's only looking for a response so best just don't engage with it.

07 Dec 2025 12:52:36
Hoth are I saying the move has
T worked out for Danny Rohl?

Are we not top of the league since he took over?

5 wins and a draw? Still only 2 goals conceded

1st point in Europe too and a clean sheet

Danny Rohl is working wonders at Ibrox don't be under any illusions that this guys not the real deal.

07 Dec 2025 12:57:22
Kaiser. The three most common names are Bowie Watson and j Milne. Also we have been watching lad Tod at Dunfermline all discussed here b4.

07 Dec 2025 12:58:42
I would rather have Shankland than Bowie but I am happy to know that we are targeting Scottish based players instead of wasting huge sums on average foreigners or over rated players from England.

07 Dec 2025 12:59:52
If we could get Bowie for that kind of money I would do it, he's young Scottish is physical and while not an out and out goal poacher would still score a few for us. Fans would need to show a bit of patience though because he's not the finished article yet.

I'm not disputing the rumour, in fact I hope its true, but I've always wondered when a scout is at a game how do we know who he's watching. Could he be watching the Falkirk right back, Adams for example.

07 Dec 2025 13:14:10
Jack Milne from Aberdeen Kasier, Bowie and Milne would be good signings for Rangers, sign the best up and coming Scottish players, would really like Watson as well.

07 Dec 2025 14:00:02
John, great post all round and thanks for keeping us informed on insight with new owner. I've only seen Bowie a couple of times and like the look of the boy. Would like to hear EHL's thoughts on the lad.

07 Dec 2025 15:00:02
Deals can break down Dylan for various reasons John does not get the all right but his hit rate along with others is high tbf.

07 Dec 2025 15:07:07
Ona Walter it's nnoying when it always comes from people who contribute so little

But the good guys mean much more…

Bank is it was also great to see Johnston at our game.

07 Dec 2025 15:21:43
I have watched him a good few times and he is not going to score you 20 plus goals a season type of striker, never really been overly impressed with him, no for me.

07 Dec 2025 16:01:57
Thanks guys. Would be good to see more of a Scottish core. Though not sure they would improve starting XI much better and cheaper squad players anyway.

07 Dec 2025 18:25:44
Yes John that's why i said ignore the odd ones who question a rumour most on here myself included value your posts.

07 Dec 2025 20:48:05
Bowie definitely has something about him. If the moneys right could be a good signing.

07 Dec 2025 22:21:28
Listen bin Dylan's reply's to most, not all but most. Make me think he's a Celtic fan.

John if he's a Celtic fan let's just all ignore him from now on.

He's attacking a pretty minor rumour from a major part of the forum. It's not hard to believe what John said, it's not a revelational post.
So for that reason I think he's only causing bother amd doing it on purpose.
I'll not be engaging with him.

07 Dec 2025 23:04:44
We had a better striker than Bowie, a guy called Dessers. But we papped him for a ten million flop. Shocking decision to sell him and igamane. 2 main goal getters

07 Dec 2025 23:32:23
Blue dreamer this is 💯 facts mate

Usual from Rangers fans.

08 Dec 2025 09:41:45
Bob you are talking nonsense I have only ever claimed to know one thing and that was Lennon Miller going to Italy and not coming to Rangers 😆. I was right. I know the family and talk to them from time to time. You really don't have a clue mate. That's why I said best ignored as it's not worth the hassle.

08 Dec 2025 09:42:12
Stevie did you not want rid of dessers?

08 Dec 2025 12:49:37
The names mentioned won't win us a league. This title is still on for me. It's gone be tight.

Rohl is doing a solid job. If we had him from start I'm certain we are at the top of the table.

06 Dec 2025 07:59:26
Rangers Review have confirmed interest in Norwegian midfielder Jens Hjerto-Dahl.

They are claiming he would cost £3.5m.

06 Dec 2025 09:51:56
He could be Raskin replacement.

06 Dec 2025 10:12:47
Or Barrons.

06 Dec 2025 11:14:59
Mad that come summer were going to need yet another full rebuild. Whole new defence for sure and 3 new strikers are an absolute must.

06 Dec 2025 11:21:47
Hope he is better than the last Norwegian midfielder we've bought for £3.5m.

06 Dec 2025 11:33:51
100% sign this boy just becauae of Tromsø they always seem to produce great players.

No idea who he is but I'm seeing 6ft 4 modern midfielder being thrown about when people describe him. That's something we lack.

06 Dec 2025 12:15:09
Modern midfielder? Does that mean he already knows how to pass it sideways and backwards already🤔😇.

06 Dec 2025 13:05:58
That's a great fee should snap him up.

06 Dec 2025 13:30:13
Doesn't make sense to be looking for replacements for two of the few players we have that we know can actually play in this league. Maybe we are looking for additions not replacements or he could be a replacement for Rothwell or Diomande.

06 Dec 2025 13:36:13
At 20yr old I see him as a project signing.
Imo we are crying out for a few experienced heads who will enhance the starting XI.

06 Dec 2025 13:41:45
Fork, that would be really funny if it wasn't so true🤣 I think they are coaching the skill and the creativity out of them.

06 Dec 2025 13:51:39
Been happening for a while bud, even at youth level.

06 Dec 2025 14:37:47
Absolutely correct Fullmonty, we need some experienced players signed that can play in our domestic league 🤔👍.

06 Dec 2025 14:44:31
We need cm we play with 2 we only probably have 3/4 that are capable of playing first team football.

06 Dec 2025 15:33:41
20 year old replacement for our international player? Woo its getting more grim by the day.

06 Dec 2025 19:03:19
Ehl, do Aberdeen have a sell on for Barron?

06 Dec 2025 21:25:48
Rothwell is experienced player how has that worked out?

06 Dec 2025 21:43:10
Cmac its hearts ehl is at not Aberdeen don't think he will know didn't we get him for free or brought him in January for very little a could be wrong mate.

07 Dec 2025 07:41:37
Yes Aberdeen have a sell on for Barron. It was put into the deal at the tribunal to decide the compensation we were due them.

07 Dec 2025 17:50:58
Bob Dylan, cmac is only asking Ehl about sell on fee because Ehl is normally in the know, not because Ehl had any association with Aberdeen fc.

08 Dec 2025 12:52:36
We need experience and the right mentality. that's basically what Rohl has been saying.

Barron is a player we need to keep particularly as Raskin will go in summer unless big money Jan.

05 Dec 2025 17:24:40
Rangers interested in signing dundee striker simon murray 😲.

05 Dec 2025 18:03:06
Not good enough to old.

05 Dec 2025 18:23:01
Absolutely not, I know people will say snobbery, but there is very few in the Scottish league that are good enough and he certainly isn't one of them.

05 Dec 2025 18:27:54
No hope 🤣.

05 Dec 2025 18:29:22
Not a hope in hell.

05 Dec 2025 18:29:28
Said it for x2 seasons. Initially as a back up but atm much better than what we currently have. Knows where the net is and is puts himself about.

05 Dec 2025 18:32:28
Wanted him when he was playing against us in the championship if it's to replace Danilo or Chermiti till the club get there target in the summer why not.

05 Dec 2025 18:33:43
Please no.

05 Dec 2025 18:36:32
Where?

05 Dec 2025 18:14:31
We are already a laughing stock.

05 Dec 2025 19:30:58
Check Coops out doing a bit of winter fishing. I hope that's what it is?! Simon Murray?! 🤣🤣🤣🤣.

05 Dec 2025 19:37:03
Simon Murray is a Celtic fan there is no way he would be coming to us. Also he is not good enough and no better than what we have.

05 Dec 2025 19:57:36
See if this was a season or two ago he's a perfectly acceptable squad option.

05 Dec 2025 20:04:03
Must be the start of the pantomime season.

05 Dec 2025 20:11:21
He' been struggling with injury all season, has missed a good few games and hasn't been scoring the way he was last season, He may be better than Chermiti but we must be looking for better than him.

05 Dec 2025 20:13:59
Simon Murray? Who said we are interested? Surely this is a joke from a Christmas cracker? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.

05 Dec 2025 20:20:39
Simon Murray is a boyhood dundee fan Ibroxstorm and always has been my friend 🤔.

05 Dec 2025 20:26:22
No were not sir walter. Also Ibroxstorm he's not a Celtic fan. Is and always has been a dundee fan 👍🏻.

05 Dec 2025 20:40:33
According to WHO?

05 Dec 2025 20:54:27
Think Chris Jack was discussing it on Rangers review a couple of days ago so maybe one of the less reputable news outlets decided to make a story about it to generate some traffic.

05 Dec 2025 20:57:44
Were did u see this or is it pulled from fresh air.

05 Dec 2025 21:07:33
He definitely looks like a Celtic fan though.

05 Dec 2025 21:09:33
Practically a done deal Paul 86😲.

05 Dec 2025 22:52:46
We'd be better off signing Judy Murray.

06 Dec 2025 01:02:16
I don't think Simon Murray is good enough, But I am sick and tired of "he's a Celtic fan" comments who genuinely cares who a player supports. They've been signing "rangers fans" for years upon years.

06 Dec 2025 05:44:58
Please God help us🤪🤪.

06 Dec 2025 08:15:51
I thought we should of signed him in last summer. he's a pest of a plalyer and would improve our squad.

06 Dec 2025 08:37:01
Big Dado 🤣🤣🤣.

06 Dec 2025 08:40:39
Nice fishing there lol. Simon murray left ross county for personal reasons as he has a child that needs 24 hour care. He was only ever going to sign for 1 of the dundee teams to be at home. No chance he's moving away or making the long daily commute. Nice fishing tho I like it.

06 Dec 2025 10:10:18
At least Judy Murray knows where the net is.

06 Dec 2025 10:31:19
Many players that improve Rangers are playing in our league, picked up for around 1/2m, but wouldn't even be looking at Murray though.

06 Dec 2025 10:42:42
Where did you hear that, Walter?

06 Dec 2025 11:24:59
🙈 who next Brian Graham, if Shankland was supposedly not good enough for us then what makes Murray better?

06 Dec 2025 12:19:29
Rangers Review were talking about him on Facebook and Rangers News on Twitter, think it was just opinion bits n bobs.

06 Dec 2025 12:50:56
John, i actually heard it from a elderly hibs share holder and season ticket holder who got the info from a former agent of simon murray's 🤔 Also somebody on here posted that chris jack from Rangers review, also eluded to us being interested in him🤔Time will tell 🤔.

06 Dec 2025 13:11:47
Davie the money could set his family up for the rest of there life's 2/3 year at Rangers will be worth well over a million to the boy he will easily quadruple his wage. I doubt the boys made enough money that he would be set for the rest of his life.

You might well be correct Paul86,i'm only sharing the info i was told, with everyone on here mate 🤔I've also heard from a hearts diehard of many years, that Danny Rohl wants to sign hearts striker and captain lawrence shankland and i honestly can't see that, as we could have signed him for nowt and would now have to pay several millions to sign him now 😲 just can't see it 🤔.

I heard Mbappe n Haaland want to sign for us from a Rangers diehard in the pub, does that count😇.

Paul you at it how much did he get payed in South Africa 😂 I bet he gets more in the spl than he did they're the fact is make lots of players can't retire when they can't play any more way the wages in the spl I know 2 ex players of spl teams and both have had to work both played at decent playing teams.

Hearing we've enquired about a young Brazilian CB called Diego Borges who plays in the Hungarian league.

6ft 4, left footed, valued at 200k on transfermarkt. Only played 318 mins this season so far.

The journalist on X that posted about this said it was a Scottish club. It could be us, Celtic or Hearts. Maybe more of a signing for Hearts with his profile.

It's ok signing good young prospects for the our player trading model but we have to sign experienced players that can handle playing for our club also 🤔.

No idea if this guy is any good but think it's imperative that we get in centre back reinforcements in as soon as possible so glad we are at least linked with one.

Scott i was told its definitely us apparently he's been recommended by the same guy that recommended jefte that's what I was told albeit i don't know how credible that info is it is just a rumour.

Don't mind punts for that kind of money, but as long as that's just filler, want my main presents hitting the ground running.
