That looks good and should have been done earlier. To be honest this is what should have originally be done rather than the renaming of the Govan Stand.

Still sticks on page 1 with IE. Tried it on my phone and can view the thread fully.

I was in KL earlier this month and there was a huge Sports direct with signboards about 30m wide and 10m high. I went into the store, not even a Rangers key ring on sale yet there was Arsenal merchandise.

I noted there is 4 pages to this thread but I can only access the first page. When clicking on next or 2,3,4 it redirects to page 1. Ive seen this a few times....is it the same for everyone?

Crooks! That's all you can say to the arrangement of the Newcastle deal. Just added interest to Ashley's loan. It was a footballing decision not even made by a footballing member of RFC.

Stuart McCall officially confirmed as new Rangers manager
Gribz replied to chilledbear's topic in Rangers Chat
Extremely harsh. -
That's quite an amazing fact that no Scotland player has hit a hattrick for 46 years considering we have had San Marino etc in qualifiers and we went to 5 world cups in a row. First and foremost we get the game won then start to think about goals. Anything less than 5 would be poor. I remember going to rangers cup tie against Keith in 1996 and said minimum 5 should be scored but we put 10 past them so we should be getting 6 or 7. Results against Gibraltar won't count for in the table at the end but goal difference might.

No doubt the players need to get fitter but at this stage of the year you need to be careful players don't start running on empty especially with play offs coming. But whoever is in charge in the summer needs to get this group a strong pre season

The fee for signing Championship players shouldn't be a problem if we gain promotion its the wages that are a massive issue. Teams like Derby, Norwich, Middlesboro can offer far more even if they don't go up the Premier League. The 3 players mentioned above Anya, Aluko and Weiss would be a breath of fresh air compared to our squad but its a shame to say we are a million miles off getting them at this stage yet I wouldn't rule them out in the future.

The top league cant even get a sponsor. If Rangers do go up then a slight cash injection will go into the fat cats pockets with a new sponsor. However if they listened to the fans and didn't kick Rangers when down things wouldn't be so bad. A top division of 16 or 18 would have had all 3 from Hearts, Hibs and Rangers in the top tier next season yet now one from Hibs and Rangers will be playing Championship football next season. I go back to the SFL given into the SPL takeover (not merger), the SFL held the trump card in Rangers and had they stood strong they would have had it all this season with the Edinburgh clubs joining. That would have set up the lower tiers for years in addition to the gate money these teams received from Rangers. If the SPFL had an ounce of common sense they would restructure the top tier and have either 2 or 3 tiers in total. They would then switch the calendar to Summer Football. Not only would the games be better due to weather and playing surfaces there might be a bit more interest from England as they would want to watch an OF game in June when there is no Premier League therefore a SKY deal would probably be higher.

Another dumpling (more so off the park) who would be a disastrous signing. He would likely come in and have 2 good honeymoon period games then start acting the clown again and end up in the treatment room.

Steven Naismith refuses to rule out Rangers return in the future
Gribz replied to ian1964's topic in Rangers Chat
There is a line with taking former players back and it should be based on age and ability. Boyd and Miller have failed miserably this season. The likes of Lewis MacLeod and Vlad Weiss would be different due to age and ability and I would take those 2 back instantly. Naismith shouldn't even qualify due to his antics even if he became Evertons top scorer. He doesn't deserve to sit in the dressing room and pull on a Rangers shirt ever again, even in a testimonial. -
I watched that earlier, saying he has vital role and has to lead from the front.
-
This is a key point. With hindsight viewing 2 games with Ally's / Kenny's teams gives him a better idea of players abilities rather than what he will see in training. As you say its a full week now and he should have a much better idea. Whilst it is still too short a time to turn things around he can make a statement that appalling performances merits no place in the team. Probably couldn't ask for a better fixture this weekend to get things right.
-
I wouldn't mind f***ing Cheryl over either. But on the Newcastle players if they are injured they should be on the first train back to Newcastle.
-
Five? bar Boyd they should be able to do that instantly. Should be at least 20 that would make them think harder. Perhaps they want faster pace in training so five is quick but in that case a coach should be taking notes of how many mistake each player makes then they should be accumulated into push ups at the end of the session.
-
Baffled into why he isn't given a run in our team never mind out on loan.
-
Some of our players aren't Division 2 standard by the looks of things so how do you expect to go up.

Allardyce has been playing cracking football this season with Downing, Sakho and Valencia upfront. Kouyate and Song have been awesome but the problem was as soon as Nolan and Carroll were fit they were thrown right back in the team. Agree RE the northern comment. But word is David Moyes is lined up for there which IMO is no better than Sam. Roy Keane did well there taking them from bottom to promotion. Having just read his book he feels there is unfinished business there. He wasn't getting the right funds to compete according to him. But since then ONeill, Bruce, Di Canio and Poyet have all made them look miserable. I wonder what Advocaat is thinking going there, like whats been said they have got one good player in Defoe. Even Stoke who are horrible to watch are a better product than Sunderland.

Man Utd first performance of the season yet Spurs were garbage. Liverpool were lucky last night, they were played off the park by Swansea in the first half then the goal seemed a huge bit of luck. Sunday will be good but wont be a CL spot decider as Liverpool have got to go to Arsenal next week and still go to Chelsea. Man Utd have City coming up then also a trip to Chelsea plus Arsenal at home so there is still twists and turns yet.

'Even Jose Mourinho would have struggled at Rangers': Kris Boyd
Gribz replied to pete's topic in Rangers Chat
Any excuse. I was neer a fan of Boyd first time around and since he left he has proved a lot of his doubters right except for a spell at Kilmarnock last season when he was playing for his career. Mourinho wouldn't allow players to be so unfit, have no clue and play people out of position. If Boyd thinks that then it just says he and some team mates are unwilling listeners. -
Sunderland are a club who need to look at themselves. They have the structure to be a big club but so many managers haven't managed to succeed there so it says more about the club. They should be looking at Swansea and Southampton and thinking if they can do well why cant we. Allardyce would seem a total fit for that club. West Ham don't look like they will renew his contract (which is crazy after the last 3 years). He is an ex Sunderland player, will want to do well for them after the Newcastle job, he always tries to sign a good level of player so I would see him as next in line. Good luck to Advocaat but I hope his luck doesn't start until next week after the West Ham game.

Im glad I backed Chelsea to win the league at the start of the season. Man city though, what a disgrace. Arsenal are only a point behind them and id back Arsenal to finish 2nd now. Man utd v Spurs today should be a belter.

Rangers fans sign up to repair crumbling Ibrox Stadium...
Gribz replied to ian1964's topic in Rangers Chat
Jeez even the audi is needing renovated...somebodys nicked the reg plate. -
Did I type Ajax, jeez...really didn't mean that one. A 10 team Euro elite league would be like the SPL, not enough, you would need 2 leagues of 12.
