Novo's contract is being allowed to run out with no new contract on the table, so it looks like he is leaving. Sebo is a difficult one. Surely PLG seem something in him to convince him to spend 50% of his entire transfer budget on him? Surely he is boing something in training that convinced WS to drop Boyd for our last 2 games? Don't think its blind faith in Sebo,. maybe blind faith in PLG actually knowing a player - but I admit it looks like PLG bought us a dud in Sebo. Cammy F

Carrying an article on the Police - http://www.eveningtimes.co.uk/news/display.var.1260981.0.0.php However, look at the some of the 'eye-witness' reports. Am I right in being sceptical of these, especially Billy Williams from Airdrie who claims ; I've just got back the game last night and the whole episode was an embarrassement and I don't mean the result. It was my first trip abroad to watch Rangers. The majority of the Raners fans at the game were very drunk and very abusive to the locals all during the day and especially at the match. Every second song was sectarian about the Pope or Catholics etc. The trouble kicked off when some fans started abusing Ehiogu and other fans objected to it and that's when the fighting started. The police only moved in to stop the fighting. It really was a disgrace. Martin Bain should look into the facts before blaming everything like the police, segregation etc. Our fans were a disgrace and I won't be back abroad to watch them. Before people start abusing me, I've had a season book at Ibrox for 20 years now. -------------------------------------- The underlined part is what 'gives this away'. As a member of the TC with 5 points I didn't get a ticket for the game, so how come he managed it on 'Zero points'. Cammy F

There are now many stories, all along the same lines regarding the police last night. Seriously, you should register to read them - far too many to cut and paste to be honest with you. Some posters confirming that they have members of their RSC in hospital this morning suferring from various broken or fractured bones. A video was posted on FF for Police battering a Rangers fan who is lying on the ground (this was also posted on Terrorist Minded and they are having a right good giggle about it). Give the BBC credit, they are appealing for witnesses to the events from within the traveling Rangers support and are urging people to email them with pictures, videos atc (as are Rangers on the official site). As I said, having witness these beasts in Villarreal, something has to be done to protect visiting fans. Nacho Novo says as much in an interview on SkySports website. Hope all Bears are home safe and sound Cammy F

If it is anything like the last game, there will be nothing done. I reported their songs to the Police at half-time and was met with a shoulder shrug and told to sit down and shut up. Shortly after half-time, I went back to the Police and asked what was going to be done - again I was advised to sit down or face being ejected from the stadium. One WPC did say she understood where I was coming from and radioed to the control room that a growing number of Rangers fans were complaining and rightly so. The control room said 'nothing we can do - tell them its been reported'. After the game, I decided to call the 'grassing hotline' at Ibrox and complain. The person that took my call was 'excited' and praised me for picking up the phone and complaining. I was asked what my complaint was. I replied 'Inappropriate singing'. 'Good' said the person on the line - 'What songs are you complainging about and have you a seast number etc'. 'Yip, I'm complaing about the vile songs sung by the visiting fans and they were eminating from the entire away section'. I was then told that the grassing hotline is for complaining about Rangers fans only..... So I wouldn't expect Larry, Bain, The Stewards nor the Police to have their eyes trained on anyone who isn't a Bear on Saturday. Cammy F

Jim Traynor will be in his usual place at Ibrox on Saturday, lets make his stay as uncomfortable as possible. Mr Murray will do nothing to 'saction' Traynor, as always it'll be left to us to defend oursevles. Cammy F

Is Larry's job on the line after the latest horrific stories coming from Bears who were in Spain last night? Isn't it Larrys job to ensure the safety of Rangers fans on their travels? Last night, Rangers had 2 official sections of the ground that were well apart from each other and one had NO segregation from the home fans. This would have been apparent to larry when he visited the stadium prior to the game. This is the latest in a long line of tales of woe coming from Rangers fans who are treated like shit whilst following their team not just in Europe, but domestically as well. Saturday will see the Red Scum get carte-blance (sp) to stand at Ibrox for 90 mins and sing their vile songs whilst Bears will be thrown out for unwrapping sweety papers. Larry, your time us up Cammy F

We all know that we welcome the Always Ultras and Dolly on Saturday and as usual we will be treated to their vile and repugnent songs about Ian Durrant, Davie Cooper, Richard Gough and the Ibrox Disaster. They warmed up for Saturday by directing this filth at Motherwell (confused) fans. As a support, we must get behind OUR team from the first minute to the last (remember the last AFC game at Ibrox?) and outsing this bunch of mutton-molesting, sheep loving, fish gutting arseholes...! So come Bears - you're club needs you. Cammy F

In theory, getting to the last sixteen of the CL and UEFA Cup in successive seasons should be hailed as a decent achievement for Rangers considering our relatively poor European showings for the last 30 odd years. It is hard to fathom out how we actually managed this ââ?¬Ë?featââ?¬â?¢ as they coincided with arguably our worst 2 domestic seasons in over a decade and happened during crisis and change within our club. There is no doubting that getting to the last sixteen of the CL was the best achievement but in comparison to this years UEFA Cup run, we struggled in the group stages (4 draws, a win and a defeat). However, as 3rd seeded team, progressing is a wonderful achievement. We were up against decent Inter and Porto teams and lets not forget how Artmedia qualified for the group stages. The highlights of the group stages were obviously the victory and draw against Porto and the draw against Inter that secured our qualification. In reflection, we can count ourselves unlucky to have been knocked out by Villarreal, we certainly matched them over two legs and its worth remembering that Villarreal were themselves unlucky to be knocked out on the semis by Arsenal. In comparison this season, we coasted through the group stages including securing Scotlandââ?¬â?¢s only domestic success on Italian soil. It wasnââ?¬â?¢t the hardest group we could have faced, but you can only defeat what is put in front of you and we did that with consummate ease. We then had a comfortable aggregate win in the first knock out round but struggled against Osasuna both home and away. Would we have gone any further under if PLG was still the manager? Weââ?¬â?¢ll never know. Iââ?¬â?¢d argue that performances against Osasuna would have been ââ?¬Ë?betterââ?¬â?¢ but donââ?¬â?¢t know if the result would have been any different, we are simply not good enough. Organisation only takes you so far and class always tells. However, last 16 two seasons on the bounce is the sort of achievement that Rangers should be striving for. We should be in the last 16 every year. The problem with getting there though is that the expectation (rightly) is to get even further and land the dream of actually winning a European trophy again. Without a long-term strategy, weââ?¬â?¢ll NEVER again win a European trophy, but clubs like Craptic and Middlesboro have shown that reaching a European final, especially the UEFA Cup is not out-with our capabilities. In summary, this seasons run, like last seasons was a welcome distraction for our dire domestic situation and the fact that we have gathered much needed co-efficient points shouldnââ?¬â?¢t be ignored either. Cammy F

see below, Jim Traynor says we deserved it. A first hand account posted on FF - http://forum.followfollow.com/showthread.php?t=239436 sounds horrible and as someone who saw the Spanish Police at close quarters in Villarreal, something really has to be done about this. Over to you David Murray..... Cammy F

IMO we require 2 full backs as I am not convinced that Hutton and Smith are the answer. After watching Murray this season, he certainly isn't the answer at left back, so even if Smith does make it, we need cover. Webster and Svensson will be the 'long term' solution to the centre-half positions and we have the option of dropping Hendami back there as he has played there during his career. Midfiled - Ferguson, Hendami and Thomson are far to similar - hence the reason we have to play Fergie as a 'striker'. If Hendami moves back, then Fergie and Thomson would be our central midfielders. What we lack in midfield is players who are fast, skillful and can play that 'killer' pass. Whilst Brown and mcCullock aren't 'world class' they would be an improvement on what we currently have. The forward area is where we are struggling the most. Boyd, for all his goals isn't the answer. He lacks pace, link up play and movement. We require 2 forwards, both who will be fast, agile and can finish. Lovenkrands would be ideal! and (and I know I'm dreaming here) but why not try and get Mido on loan from Spurs (he is 4th choice there at the moment). All in all, a lot of rebuilding required.

Am pure sending that to yoofa so a am... Cammy F

Nah, its a red hand salute, oh wait a minute... Cammy F

Think that is due to a cut and paste problems - the list under winners should be followed as a 'runner up' - anything after a 'space' is a runners up. Cammy F

Have we, as a support, ever found ourselves in a predicament such as the one that faces us at this moment in time? We have an owner (Chairman, custodian, call him what you like) who is running our club into the ground and who is content to sit back and watch us suffer at the hands of political policing, campaigned attacks from media with an agenda and off course, our friends from UEFA. Firstly, Iââ?¬â?¢ll say something that is as controversial as the problems that we face. I donââ?¬â?¢t think that enough of us really care about Mr Murrayââ?¬â?¢s mismanagement or the ââ?¬Ë?political policingââ?¬â?¢ that has been more and more evident on our travels in Scotland for the last 3-4 years. So before we can go about righting the wrongs, we have to engage the ââ?¬Ë?silent majorityââ?¬â?¢ of Rangers fans and open their eyes to the severe problems we face both from within and out-with the Rangers boardroom. As ââ?¬Ë?One Voiceââ?¬â?¢ we can not be ignored in the corridors of power be it at Ibrox of The Scottish Parliament. The RST have thus far been the only ââ?¬Ë?publicââ?¬â?¢ voice of the support and are in constant dialogue with Mr Murray and after the OF game, have asked for a meeting with the police of the policing of said OF game. However, the direction should be coming from within Ibrox. Our owner should be the one that is asking the police why they removed Union Flags from Rangers fans, why they told certain fans that singing Rule Britannia and No Tims In Europe was ââ?¬Ë?sectarianââ?¬â?¢. Our owner should be asking why Rangers fans were 90% more likely to be arrested than Craptic fans at OF game at The Towers. Instead, Dodgy Dave thinks a ââ?¬Ë?dignified silenceââ?¬â?¢ will get us answers. All our ills off and on the pitch point directly back to Dodgy Dave. However, he (God knows how) still retains ionic status amongst the majority of fans. Until we change this misconception, we are farting against thunder and our team will continually go backwards on the pitch and it will come to a day where it will be deemed sectarian if you say that you support Rangers. Now Thatââ?¬â?¢s What I Call Sectarian Beep, Beep here comes the offended bus with Timmy as driver and Jhoke McConnell as ticket collector. After our narrow, but enjoyable victory of the forces of evil, it appears that Timmy, with help from his cohorts in parliament and the media have found a whole lot of new stuff to be offended by ; The Bouncy ââ?¬â?? although been done for years by Bears, Timmy has informed everyone whoââ?¬â?¢ll listen that it celebrates a murder of a catholic in Belfast. The Union Flag ââ?¬â?? yip, the only country in the world where the flag of foreign countries is more welcome and less ââ?¬Ë?offensiveââ?¬â?¢ than OUR OWN flag The National Anthem ââ?¬â?? 90,000 Irish men and woman stood in respect of GSTQ at Crooke Park ââ?¬â?? pity the plastic paddies at Parkhead donââ?¬â?¢t have the same respect as those they claim to ââ?¬Ë?portrayââ?¬â?¢ Punch a Pape ââ?¬â?? No, not one of Stu Francis catchphrases from Crackerjack but apparently a past time of all us big bad Presbyterians Kill A ****** Before I die ââ?¬â?? a song that lives only in Timmyââ?¬â?¢s head. The Dam-busters ââ?¬â?? No sorry, its not the Dam-busters that weââ?¬â?¢ve been doing for years, this is a new version that is done to offend Nakard-motor. Honestly, if Timââ?¬â?¢s didnââ?¬â?¢t exist you couldnââ?¬â?¢t make them up. But this is what we are up against. These lies are printed on craptic websites and picked up by journalists and the next thing we know, they are making news headlines and taken as FACT. What does our club do about it? Nothing, they shrug their shoulders and hope that by not denying these lies, that the public will not listen to the peddlers of hate. It is time that we realised that this mob of bigots (as that is what they are) will be offended by ANYTHING that we do or say (think I am paranoid? then care to explain how one goes about cutting grass into a ââ?¬Ë?sash designââ?¬â?¢?). If we donââ?¬â?¢t fight back highlighting their hypocrisy and their agendas then folks it wonââ?¬â?¢t be long until it is ââ?¬Ë?offensiveââ?¬â?¢ to walk down the street wearing a Rangers top.

When has any TIM ever been 'fair minded' when it comes to anything conected to Rangers tho Souness is one of the best players ever to be produced by this country. I think the problem he has with the 'public' is that most of his career was outside Scotland. Cammy F

So claimed a bitter yahoo (are we still allowed to refer to them as bitter!!!) in todays Retard phone-in. Claiming that Souness was wrong to have a go at (poor wee victimised - this has always got to proceed his name now) Neil.

Without Scotland there is no Britain. Without the saltire there is no Union Flag. Gribz, there is more to their hatrid. This and my last post may sound like paranoid ramblings, but they hate everything we stand for. The hate the Union, the hate the fact that we advocate free thinking on all subjects and whilst being christian (small c) we will not be dictated to from a wee man in a funny hat. I have just resigned from a job that I had (many reasons) and I am seriously thinking for moving abroad rather than stay in a country that is being run by a 'Church' who see me as a bigot just because I don't agree with their 'thinkings'. Cammy F

When I continually highlight the ills of living in Scotland, I am tagged as 'anti-Scottish'. Hopefully Frankie's brilliant post highlighting the fact that Jhoke and his rebel loving scumbags (as that is what they are, he shares an office with an ex-ira supporting flute band member who still has his 'political tattoos') will use any excuse to deflect from what a shitey little country this has become. He and his rebel loving scumbags are more than happy to use their anti-Presbyterian agenda to show us, the majority as the big bad bigots. Never mind tackling the overcrowded prisons, the overwork courts, the drug and drink culture that is crippling the NHS. Never mind tackling the racism, the crime rate and the knife and gun culture. No, lets focus on those big bad Rangers supporters. And guess what, at the next election, those same big bad Rangers supporters will trot of to the polling stations in their droves and put an HUGE BIG 'X' against the monkey that is standing for Labour. We are the only ones that can change this country and we can only change it but voting these frookers out. We can change it by claiming back 'the working mans party'. But like changing Rangers, not that many of us actually care. Cammy F - Cynical and Controversial Loyal RSC.

I would rather see us look at taking Foster on loan from Man U - he has been very good at Watford this season. Brown I would take, but can't believe we are continually linked with McDonald. Cammy F

Off course not, but I don't know any manager who would change his thinking on tactics to accomidate a lazy player who does not have the basic footballing abilities. The only manager who I can remember changing his formation around a player was Keegan at Newcastle when they were romping the EPL. He lived to regret that... Cammy F

If thats true, why don't you give his name to Strathclydes finest - they've been searching 2 years for him Cammy F

Neither Boyd NOR Sebo are Rangers class - I've never advocated Sebo ahead of Boyd. As for WS tactics, thats why he is a successful and sought after manager and thats why we are debating his merits on a fans forum:yawn: Cammy F
