This is going to be a blood bath. No tactical awareness on our side that I can see.

Barely 5

You didn’t believe JVB when he said tonight was too soon for Ramsey? I hope he throws a curve ball with his team selection and includes him. I would.

I thought Sands was an 18 month loan deal with option to buy?

Forgot about him...and Senderos! Okay, 3rd biggest signing since Gazza IMO! 🤣

Newcastle, albeit fighting for survival, were one of the other options. The club with mega rich owners who aim to turn them into Premier League champions, and he chose us. Who'd have thought, honestly??? Biggest signing since Gazza IMO.

He'll be free to play against Dortmund in the EL as well, which increases our chances of going further.

Wot, no fee?

Hand up. This is certainly the best Jan window I can remember in a long time. It can quickly turn to shit if we lose Wednesday though, so let's be confident of the quiet type.

Luis Suarez would be nice

Zukowski signing is exactly the type of player we should be going for. But I'm absolutely gobsmacked that we may also be landing Aaron Ramsey. Not just on loan, but with an option to buy...incredible and exciting!

Celtic 1 Rangers 2 FGS: Diallo

Aribo, nobody else close.

An opinion on a new player that I don't think is the required standard for Rangers is symptomatic of the very worst in our support, and shameful? Sorry bill, but you do talk some bollocks. I hope to be proven wrong about Sands, he looks a smart lad with a good attitude. I'm rooting for him, but IMO, I don't think he has the talent to make it in the first team. Adding squad players in NOT what we needed in January. I was hoping for one or two quality signings that could help us land the title, that will bring the much needed financial rewards of the CL.

Not what I meant at all. I was referring to the comment that we're skint, yet we have up to 10 players that we could have sold/offloaded to save wages in the last couple of windows. This is also not a knee jerk reaction to losing 4 points in 3 games, it's a moan that we haven't been as smart with player trading as we could have been.

If that's the case, I'd suggest Ross Wilson needs to do a better job! We have 5 players that have not contributed for a while, that would have some value and should have been punted: Barker, Simpson, Katic (arguably), Hastie, Firth. Then there are the two that have played and could command a half decent fee, but are not of the standard required: One is Barisic who is not the player he was and I prefer Bassey as a left back now. The other is Itten, who should have been left out of loan in the hope we could punt him to Fürth at end of season. Then there's Kamara and Goldson. Both should have been punted last year if not interested in signing new contracts. Davis and Greegsy should have been allowed to retire, at least the latter of the two. I'd prefer either McL or McC to McG right now. There's some fees that could and should have been brought in and wages saved that would help the financial situation if it's that dire. As has been proven with Patterson and Lowry, there are probably some decent young academy players that could replace the squad players above if not yet at the potential of Patterson/Lowry. And how did we end up Ofoborh? that makes 10. And then we bring in Sands. Sorry to say, and I know it's really early, but I cant see how he adds anything to the squad. I know many will disagree with a lot of what I say above, but it's an honest observation, so as much as Ross Wilson may be worshipped by many, I think he still has work to do to prove himself IMO. Otherside of the city, they sell their duds for millions!

Well it won't be Itten that's for sure. He's run his race. I'm not bothered about ever handing him another chance. Never Rangers standard.

How did I know that was fucking coming? Another crazy decision by McGregor!

Thanks Tav! Must be tough playing right back and doing Ittens job for him too!

Where was Itten when their goalie spilled that?

Let’s see what Gio can change at HT, this is a big test for him. We could end up second in the league by Wednesday night!

Exactly, we’re playing the usual lethargic way. Hopefully this should jolt us into action. Press and be relentless. Itten should have chances, if he doesn’t take any, then I suggest he leaves his last chance saloon!

Ross County 0 Rangers 2 FGS: Diallo

A few positives: Lowry will be a star, Jack is back just in time, Sakala looking good, and Scotty saves us again. 3 points. That’s it.

Thank fuck! We’ll done Scotty Arfield
