If we have a successful side, people won't give a toss about what terminology club staff use. Actually, I might but I'm a grumpy git.

Something we can agree on for sure. Sorry db for derailing the thread. 🙈

For the love of God sign some players. We want a signing culture.

I think what the majority of us are saying, it's all corporate jargon bollox that is just to appease and pay lip service to hey look we want to do this, and we'd actually prefer they just put it into practice. Give us a winning team, that rakes in the trophies. That's a culture and identity we can all get behind.

Mabie some people cotton on to the over usage of the word culture, now, If you added the word heritage and didn't think of it in some weird footballing losses mentality then it's no suprise we jump on the over usage of this bad culture we have

What are the current culture and philosophy at Real Madrid? Are they different at PSG? Does Liverpool have them?

The S.F.A. statement was so boring. The whole thing is utterly boring. What we need is to end the compliance officer role, end all judicial panels, end use of V.A.R. and finally prohibit any televised broadcast of matches. No appeals for red cards and so on either.

A bit of both...

This match is like watching Rangers. One team sitting back and the other just passing it around, unable to break through. Brad Friedel's co-commentary is rubbish as well.

Cavanaugh (sp?), Jean-Luc and Thelwell have used the term 'culture', in reference to need to change the culture of failure. Don't we all agree? Most have been saying it for ages, e.g. Tavernier. I don't see the issue, other than an unusual word. It appears to some sort of reverse snobbery.

They actually should have been closed down.

I think a lot of us were hoping for a big (general) upturn after the takeover announcement but it hasn't materialised. Too early to get the razorblades though.

Because of the lack of transfers, or because we don't like hipster jargon and overcomplicating football? 🤓

I might end up slitting my own wrists...

No. Style is another word for philosophy. Club culture, as I've pointed out several times, is different.

You just keep agreeing with my point, yet use the tone of someone that disagrees, angrily. I think you just don't like the 'buzzwords', which is fair enough. I don't mind either way - it's the same thing.

Hopefully Raskin extends and we keep him this coming season. That's good strategy.

If Tom Boyd had led to Celtic being fined then I wouldn't have a problem with the Brown situation. It is inconsistent and rightly highlighted by Rangers but it is time to move on until someone else calls the ref a cheat. All a bit of a circus, wish we had the football back to enjoy debating the games again.

Not exactly much actual transfer news and I'm quite enjoying the chat about terminology.

Rangers could be set to miss out on striker target Dor Turgeman due to rising conflict in the Middle East, according to reports. Turgeman has been on the radar at Ibrox and some reports even suggested a deal to bring him from Maccabi Tel Aviv could be close. Sport 5 report that Maccabi are now thinking it may be unwise to sell on key players as they will find it tough to attract replacements from overseas. The report suggests the striker "certainly" won't be sold prior to the Champions League qualifiers against Cypriots Pafos next month. And they may also decide to significantly up the asking price for any of their players who are attracting interest, to make selling up more palatable. https://www.glasgowtimes.co.uk/sport/25257272.rangers-dor-turgemen-deal-doubt-middle-east-conflict/ Maybe the Tel Aviv high-ups messed up our transfer plans as well. Speaking of which, how about keeping this thread on topic?

This is key. One of the best at ‘player trading’ before it was a thing. Ince, Kanchelskis, Beckham, van Nistelrooij, Stam, etc etc. sold them for top dollar but after he got the best from them. Souness at us was also excellent at player trading btw.

Participation medals and money have a lot to answer for imo.

Style? So, is that the your definition of culture here? I said style, you said the buzzwords of culture and philosophy

You're confusing simplifying football with shouty shouty manager. You said it yourself, sign the right players. You want to install a philosophy? Sign players that suit that, don't try and shoehorn. Walter Smith, Alex Ferguson, Jose Mourinho have all said at one point or another philosophy is essentially bollox. You have to build a team in that image, not sign players and try to impose that image on them.
