As per title, we played a closed doors game against Queen of the South, winning 4-1 From the snippets out there: Line up McGregor - Flanagan, Goldson, Mayo, Barisic - Kamara, Barjonas, Polster, Ojo - Kent Morelos Goals: Morelos 2, Kent & Ojo

Can Gersnet effect a bundle of nominees such as PLG, Stevie, and Forlanssister? Let's have a true reflection of reasonable and rational folks. I am prepared to vote early and often to achieve this goal.

Sorry but although I keep getting all the emails etc I ceased to be a paying member some time ago otherwise I'd certainly be one of the 15. Surely there are 15 eligible on here who would do so?

What price a league title? I can't wait to find out.

I couldn’t be on the 72 board & putting out rumours or being objective against board issues, the whole narrative of the blog would be compromised by accusations it was led etc What if next transfer rumour I do nail then accusations it’s getting leaked to me etc by the board Just not worth the hassle

Watching Burnley v Leicester on SkyTV I was intrigued to see Burnley‘s 8th “In Memoriam“ ceremony, held prior to the first home game of the new year, where they have a minute of silence while the names of members of the “Burnley family” who have passed away over the last year are displayed on the big screens. On the whole I thought this was a worthwhile and tangible expression of respect by the club. There again, as one of the small number of what I still think of as a “proper football club”, it wasn’t a huge surprise to see this from Burnley. Something for Rangers to think about?

I watched it and agree that it seemed dignified and worthwhile. I have a pal who is a Burnley season ticket holder and I recall our first conversation involving Ted McMinn. He hates Celtc (I didn't encourage that, honest). Rangers have our Loving Cup ceremony and a minute's silence for the Ibrox Disaster and I feel that is sufficient, as each individual is entitled to remember Bears who are close to them who have passed away in their own way. Grief tends to be publicly overdone nowadays, in my opinion.

Sometimes you got to forget the performance and just take the win .

I wonder why we would offer 4.5m for a guy in his last six months at Rodez? https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ugo-bonnet/profil/spieler/525114

Aye that widely available Premier Sports?

Plastic pitch, small allocation, rubbish draw to be honest. At least it'll be on TV.....

The Hearts fans celebrated dodging us like they had won it.

Have managed to find out is on Sportscene at 7-15.

Before the draw, PQ are intent on raising the spectres of Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee. Sounds of the Clyde and Tay Deltas are brought to our ears by Jum Spence(Harmonica) and Graham Spiers(organ). The popular Beat Combo', known better as, 'Jum and Grum' adopt a stride stance whilst playing cross-hand boogey. Jum fingers Grum's organ as Grum sucks and blows Jum's plums. Truly, syncopation for the nation.

Could be? also could be him just getting match time?

I noticed there Clancy allowing the thug Porteous to walk off the pitch from his own penalty are to the half way line!!, he made Davis go off behind the goals!. OOPS! wrong thread.

What, suicides at mass?

Oldest living Ranger now, Ian McMillan ?

Could anyone wanting to propose me please PM me your name and the email address you use for Club 1872?

Me too

Happy to be one of your 15 C

Happy to propose you too, C.

You’ve got one.

On the plus side ,we've got some ready made banners for Ugo Bonnet .

Have to agree with some of this. It's not Konterman's fault that the manager wouldn't drop him. Negri downed tools and extracted a small fortune for 3 and a half years. Who knows what Rangers could have achieved otherwise. Can't understand fans looking back on him with much fondness at all.

Find it hard to believe we would spend that money on a player who has played all his senior career in the second tier of French football. Scored 22 goals in 107 appearances according to Wikipedia.

What I think is this rebuild is a process that takes time, resources and good judgement. We are nowhere near the end of that process so to expect perfection or to complain about the lack of it is a bit pointless. I still find myself doing it of course ?

"it gets tiresome, Rangers supporters saying Stuart is a Rangers hater". The above was said last Saturday by Tam Cowan. It's January 11th, and we are midway through the show when a contrived link is utilised to prove DrStu' does not hate Rangers. Rene Guttuso's name is raised and we are informed both Tam and DrStu' met Rene in the Hilton after signing for Rangers. DrStu' remembers getting Guttuso to hold up his St Johnstone scarf, having fun, and liking the young lad! In it's twenty-sixth year, Off the Ball is indulging in some revisionism. Gennaro played for Rangers for eighteen months in 1997 and '98, he made thirty-odd appearances, scoring three goals. He was a popular figure among the Rangers support. Off the Ball had been going for 3-4 years at that period and habitually referred to both Rangers and Rangers supporters as "H-u-ns". It was the common currency of the show then. They commissioned weekly sketches from BBC Scotland's Comedy Unit, and Gattuso appeared regularly as, "the little hairy monkey". He was portrayed as a stupid monkey continually at odds with modern life. No hesitation in BBC Scotland exercising an already existing stereotype. DrStu' gets excited and when he does he becomes garrulous. He cannot help himself, and in particular he offered, "if Gattuso was in any way a decent prospect as a player, he wouldn't be at Rangers". You can file that one under knowing three separate Rangers supporting season ticket holders who no longer attend Ibrox because they do not believe it's the same club. Gattuso in his career won 73 caps for Italy, securing both the World Cup and Euro championship. Further, at club level he won the Champions League twice and several domestic honours. I can only imagine this latest piece of theatrical revisionism has came about because DrStu' has come into contact with Gennaro's Glasgow born wife, Monica? Keep up the Scare! The beginning of last week's football broadcast from the PQ Gang Hut was DrStu' and Tam reminding the listenership of events from a fortnight before. The first words were, "does Scottish football need saved by Steven Gerrard"? We had five minutes describing the gesticulations of Morelos and Kent at ra Sellik Park. Both DrStu' and Tam pleaded for Rangers supporters to consider these players reactions in reverse, what if Sellik supporters had cut their throats and shot off imaginary guns in front of Rangers supporters? Remember, Lennon was demanding a scrapping of Liam Christie's two match ban and a full apology. Why was this not discussed; as opposed to a number of PQ employees questioning Derek McInnes, Ian McCall, and Robbie Neilson as to their need for saving? Knowing what we know today, I am becoming more convinced DrStu' knew what was coming to both Kent and Morelos last week, and it was all about preparation, a fortnight after the event. DrStu' enjoys being on the establishment side. The Man in the Know. The other man in the know by proxy inside PQ these days, is Michael Stewart. Regularly, he is indulged and allowed to batter Craig Levein. More regularly, he has a waiting expectant audience enjoying his, "I don't like the way Rangers do things as a club". He spent fifteen minutes demanding answers to Ryan Christie's citing by the Compliance Officer. He wanted to know who, why, and when cited. No answer from both Daryll Broadfoot and a recently retired Ref'(didn't catch his name) was enough. He talked, then shouted over both adversaries; even pulling both up short for their usage of English. Given his own power of communication is such, I was surprised with his concluding, "if Ryan Christies grabbing out for balance is a red, then the game is a bogey". To bring this up to date, today we have heard nothing of Morelos or Kent. No one is being saved and the Gattuso guff was just a big lie. There is a price to pay for defeating the favoured establishment club in their own midden. The Gang Hut will take as long as it takes to collect the toll.

I don’t think so ever saw a title-winning Rangers team that’s didn’t occasionally turn in the sort of display we saw yesterday. I think we’re in danger of over-analysing our situation and reaching too many final conclusions about certain players - the same sort of conclusions we were only recently reaching about Barisic and Katic.
