Devil's advocaat

Watching his youtube reel, every goal looks a bit Dessersesque....

This boy Barron might be worth signing 

I think so Compo, as Yuddie says, it's a no brainer.

As I said,  no one had a sniff of this. 

Fantastic. 👏🏻

I like the fact there's very little coming out in the 'news' outlets regarding our dealings, Gerrard had this down to a tee, they knew fuck all til the deal was done. 

A half what? 😆

Honestly, I'd give therm both for free, to get rid and free the wages. if we get 2m+ we should be laughing. 

Can't disagree with that.

Lets hope that's true. 

Good.

For the simple reason that the first time our new players walk out the Ibrox tunnel, they'll get the atmosphere of a new season, feel the weight of the Jersey and thrive on the expectation.

I don’t understand the loan part of the deal unless it’s related to the time left on his contract with Lens. Perhaps the time Rangers need to save up for the fee.

All clubs are doing this now, basically managing outgoing finances in terms of financial fair play etc. I think Diomande is on a similar basis?.

It does say obligation, so we'll be buying him next Summer.  

Yup, this is basically OC signing on a 5 year contract.

Old Trafford is in the state it's in purely down to lack of maintenance, preventative maintenance is essential with any exposed structure, neglect that and it's not long before the costs will spiral, we got into the same place ourselves not so long ago. We need to continue to grow, to extract profit as much as possible, we've already seen that we can't rely on european money, and we've made some poor contract choices in recent years too.

Kudos to you for travelling up twice a month, that's superb.

All made some contribution but only Jack despite frequent injury was consistent at a good level.

Agreed. 

Brilliant. Time we moved on from this squad, onwards and upwards.

No one knew who Lawwell was when he took over, and take over he did.

Profile is irrelevant.

We need a high profile, big hitter for the CEO role at Rangers. One who is prepared to confront the SFA and the SPFL. 

The response from the club to the corrupt refereeing last Saturday was abysmal 

Disagree, we need someone who is good at their job, profile is irrelevant if you know your onions.

Tan man was way after our first CL adventures.

That may be the case, Rab, but we have lost Cordoba to Norwich City. That is due to salary and nothing else I don't it's because Norwich will be in Europe next year. They have no chance so effectively we don't have enough to offer Cordoba enough of a salary. Lets see what the Argentinian brings, he looks next on the list we may get lucky. WATP

Rubbish.

Players go to such English clubs as Norwich as it offers them a faster route to a Premiership contract, and that's about the height of many players ambitions.

Hope when he gets to Saudi finds some billionaire shiekh who fancies buying a football club ..

Aye, let's become a soulless toy for a rich boy.

FFS.

I was at Bartram's first game (If my memory is right, which doesn't often happen!), I think we beat Falkirk 3-1 at Ibrox and he scored?

Christ, I was right! Was gonna say I thought it was Bombers debut too.

https://therangersarchives.co.uk/bartram-jan/#:~:text=Jan Bartram (1988),what was his home debut.

Yes, that's what I said.

Yup, was just gonna say that, they actually played him up front. Less expectation, and fans not howling at him when he took a poor touch probably helps too.

794 minutes in 365 days?. Welcome to the ward, son.

Not a huge outlay, maybe he'll be getting a jefte signing on fee.

I'll get my coat.

No one said that we wanted a team full of youth.
