It was only the Broomie that was the problem due to YB fans having seats in BF and BR.

Missed the first 10 minutes due to our normal turnstiles being behind the security barrier. This meant that everybody in BR 4 & 5 had to enter by BR 1 & 2 entrances, creating massive queues. This was all due to the large away support, one guy told he he got an email from Rangers at 1730hrs telling him about the change. Bit late and everyone should have been informed well beforehand, poor organisation by the club.

What would that have to do with the SFA?

The Celtic-daft rocker was at the national stadium on Sunday to watch Neil Lennon’s side lift the Betfred Cup. Sir Rod Stewart watched Celtic win 1-0 at Hampden and later joined players for post-match celebrations at ParkheadCredit: Kenny Ramsay - The Sun Glasgow Former Scotland striker Alan Brazil sensationally claimed on talkSPORT this morning that the son of a Gers official “went for Sir Rod” as his post-match celebrations spilled over. The 60-year-old said: “By all accounts after the final at the weekend at Hampden. Rod went into the directors box and he had had a few. “I’m not saying he was hammered but he’d had a few. “Celtic won the cup. Rangers played very, very well but lost. talkSPORT host Alan Brazil claimed a Rangers director's son "went for Sir Rod"Credit: Dan Jones - The Sun Celtic beat Rangers 1-0 in the Betfred Cup FinalCredit: Reuters “And Rod by all accounts lay on his back on the floor in the directors box in the lounge rubbing his tummy laughing and giggling saying: ‘You just can’t beat us can you?’ “One of the Rangers officials, I think it was his son, went for him. He had to be grabbed and pulled back. “It all kicked off in the directors lounge by all accounts. So Rod, be careful what you are doing.” But Gers chiefs have furiously denied Brazil’s version of events and insist the youngster did not react, despite allegedly being goaded by the 74-year-old, who is believed to have had a few drinks before the incident. And the Ibrox club have demanded an on-air apology from the Celtic fan radio host for getting the story “spectacularly wrong”. CUP CLASH Rangers official's son 'went for Sir Rod Stewart' claims Alan Brazil A club spokesperson said: "Rangers are seeking an apology from Alan Brazil after his crass and grossly-inaccurate comments on talkSPORT this morning when he said the son of a Rangers director had confronted Rod Stewart in the director’s lounge at Hampden after Sunday's cup final. "The truth is Mr Stewart, who was witnessed lying on the floor of the VIP area, eventually got to his feet and approached the youngest member of Rangers’ official party. "The teenager was sitting alone looking at his phone when Mr Stewart approached and started goading him but the young man had the good sense and dignity to ignore the comments. "Mr Stewart’s behaviour was witnessed by a number of Rangers directors and he was asked politely and quietly by one of them to leave the boy alone and return to his own group.

I have had a conversation with Suck and he has agreed to not only help with the idea, but to fund any costs for it from the FF EBT-overspill account. As a small gesture to Dave King to mark his announcement at the AGM of an intention to step down from his role as Chairman we will be commissioning a book that will contain personal messages from those supporters who wish to say thank you. The Email address DK_Book@outlook.com has been set up and over the next month or so, I will collate and proof any Email sent that contains a message that an individual may like to put forward. I believe that this gives us a chance for a far more intimate ‘thank you’ than might ordinarily be afforded and I would love to think that he will be able to look back in a decade or so and see the regard in which he is held by so many. The intention is to gather messages, have them printed by a professional and bound in a fitting cover and to ask for the book to passed onto Dave King at a suitable time. I understand fully that some may not like the idea, or feel it a little over the top, and I would like to politely ask them to hold their council to allow people who see value in the idea to discuss it and to contribute. It goes without saying that all messages will be vetted stringently, more to filter out the lurkers than anything, but any inappropriate comments will not be included in the book. Posters are welcome to send in multiple entries if they have non FF using friends or family who would like to say a piece and the messages can be signed, or not, at the poster's discretion. A location would be a nice touch, to help show the world-wide contribution. For Example: N_L South Yorkshire I will be looking for someone with better writing ability than myself to pen a short fore-word further down the line and volunteers can drop me a PM!

Club 1872 Statement on FARE Dear Member Club 1872 is extremely concerned about an incident this morning where the official account of Football Against Racism Europe (FARE) retweeted a derogatory tweet from a Celtic fan regarding Rangers Football Club and its supporters. FARE has now confirmed that one of their employees retweeted the offensive tweet which was subsequently deleted. They have also issued a statement on Twitter which completely fails to address how and why this happened and is misleading as to the content of the tweet and how long it remained on their Twitter account before they deleted it. FARE has also not given any indication of what action they are taking to address the ongoing concern that a number of their employees are biased against Rangers Football Club. This incident raises further questions about the impartiality and transparency of the organisation, which UEFA has placed in a very powerful position with regard to supporter behaviour at European games. We made Rangers aware of this incident early this morning and they have now confirmed to us that they will be raising the matter with both FARE and UEFA. In the meantime, ahead of a crucial final group game in the Europa League tomorrow night, we would remind supporters of their duty to ensure that no further sanctions are forthcoming from UEFA for sectarian chanting. Regardless of ongoing issues regarding impartiality and transparency with FARE, until UEFA properly examine the way in which the organisation operates they retain the ability to report any incidents as they see fit. Any future sanction for sectarian singing is likely to include a full closure of Ibrox, which would impact tens of thousands of our supporters and have a negative impact on the club’s finances as it continues to improve the playing squad and upgrade club facilities. As supporters we must continue the vocal and positive backing which the team has received in recent months. Club 1872

https://stv.tv/sport/football/1443042-davis-defoe-and-mcgregor-agree-to-extend-stay-at-rangers/ A trio of Rangers players are set to follow Steven Gerrard by signing new contracts with the club this week, STV has learned. Steven Davis, Jermain Defoe and Allan McGregor have been in discussions over extending their stay at Ibrox and all three are set to be confirmed on new deals in the coming days. Davis - who missed the League Cup final defeat to Celtic due to injury - rejoined the club in January, initially on a six-month loan deal from Southampton summer before making the move permanent. The Northern Irishman's existing contract is due to expire next summer. The midfielder has impressed under Gerrard and has arguably been one of Rangers' best performers this season. Defoe made the move from Bournemouth on an 18-month loan deal in January. With the former England striker now in the last six months of his contract, Rangers have made an offer for him to sign permanently in the summer and STV understands the 37-year-old will sign a new one year contract on a Bosman deal. There had been suggestions the striker would agree a player/coach role, but this is not the case. Allan McGregor has also earned a new contract. We've learned the goalkeeper has triggered an extension based on the number of first team games he's made since rejoining Rangers in the summer of 2018. STV revealed last week that Steven Gerrrad has agreed terms to a new contract, which will commit him to the club until the summer of 2024. Rangers have rewarded the 39- year-old after guiding the club to the Europa League group stage for two successive seasons and becoming genuine title challengers to Celtic.

Managed to get another ticket for Killie game yesterday from club. This morning all tickets for both games gone, sell out again.

Yes I agree, maybe should have said his decision making.

Ffs there’s 2 of them.

Ok, so you think we will get £35M at least for him? You don’t think he always blasts the ball when one on one with goalie? I like Morelos but he does have shortcomings.|±

Morelos showed today why we will never get £35M or anything like it for him. He has a lack of finesse, tries to smash the ball past the goalie rather than a wee dink on 2 occasions.

Brian Muir said UB must put up display yesterday, UB wanted to do it today. GB refused to tell Brian Muir what the display would say.

BY MARK WALKER 10:37, 8 DEC 2019 Rangers are reportedly in talks to sign Mostafa Mohamed, one of the highest-rated young strikers in African football.The Ibrox side look set to strengthen their squad next month when the transfer window opens and according to former Egyptian star Haytham Farouk the striker is a target for the Premiershipside.They are reportedly eyeing a shock move for Cairo giants Zamalek's 22-year-old striker Mohamed to go along with Alfredo Morelosand Jermain Defoe.Mohamed - who has already been capped twice by Egypt - won the top scorer award in the Under 23s African Cup of Nations last month as he helped his country win the trophy.And that's alerted Steven Gerrard, who has already sent Rangersrepresentatives to meet Mohamed, according to former Feyenoord, Helsingborgs and Egypt international Farouk - who is now also a respected TV pundit in his homeland.He said: "I know for a fact Mohamed has options in European football most notably from Glasgow Rangers."Rangers manager Steven Gerrard has already sent a delegate from his club to speak with him. They were attracted to him because of his performances in the Under 23s Cup of Nations."I think it would be a great move for him to go to a club like Rangers. It's important when he does move to European football he takes the right steps with the right club."I believe he is one of the exciting talents in African football right now, but until he gets his move, it's important he focuses on his form at Zamalek."

Rangers are monitoring former France U-20 star Serhou Guirassy, according to reports. French newspaper The Courrier Picard claims the Light Blues have scouted the 23-year-old Amiens forward this season. He’s bagged four goals in 13 Ligue 1 games in 2019/20. And Guirassy is also attracting transfer interest from clubs in Spain and England, including Brendan Rodgers’ Leicester City. The Foxes are said to have watched the target man in October along with Italian outfits Roma, Bologna and Chievo. The striker joined Amiens permanently from German side Koln in a £5million deal this summer and is under contract until 2022. He made his senior breakthrough at Stade Lavallois before stints with Lille and Auxerre.
