There is zero need for the club to assert anything other than us being a club that is open to all. In my opinion, of course.

Scott Nisbet's goal against Club Brugge was one of the highlights of one of our most memorable European campaigns. Unforgettable! All the best to him.

Any chance you could debate this stuff with the government and leave Rangers out of it?

Better still, any chance football clubs could leave this box-ticking crap to HR departments and get on with playing football and treating supporters more like part of the club and less like customers.

i don't care if they don't post. However, if they don't read -and heed- the opinions expressed on this forum, then it is little wonder that silverware eludes the team.

SEVENTEEN weeks and a day have passed since Rangers last took to a football pitch for a match – but the waiting was ended this afternoon with the Light Blues defeating Hamilton Accies in a bounce game at the Rangers Training Centre. Sporting the stunning new Castore home kit for the first-time, everyone in Steven Gerrard’s squad was given a run-out during the 90 minutes, barring Steven Davis, Ryan Jack, Allan McGregor, Filip Helander and Nathan Patterson, who were all carrying minor knocks. Indeed, each of the manager’s new summer signings – Ianis Hagi, Calvin Bassey and Jon McLaughlin - were all given opportunities at some point in the afternoon. Gers began with much of the ball, but it was Accies who took the lead after eight minutes as Ronan Hughes picked the ball up on the edge of the area, strode forward and finished well out of reach of McLaughlin. The home side responded well, however, and very quickly camped themselves in the Hamilton half with James Tavernier, Joe Aribo and Ianis Hagi all having efforts blocked by white-shirted defenders. Calvin Bassey managed to get something on a Borna Barisic corner at the back post through a cluster of bodies, but his header was grasped by goalkeeper Ryan Fulton. Hagi then dug a superb effort out of his feet from 25 yards which only just cleared the bar, before George Stanger got his head on another Hagi effort from outside the area which looked goalbound. The goal looked to be coming as half-time approached, and on 43 minutes it duly arrived. With Gers still pushed forward from a corner, the ball broke left for James Tavernier, and he delivered an excellent ball into the front-post for Calvin Bassey to nod-on into the back of the net beyond the reach of Fulton. Into the second half, and the Light Blues twice came close to taking the lead in the opening minute of the half. The lively Jamie Murphy was alert to rob Daryl Meikle of the ball as he dallied on it at the back, but sub ‘keeper Kyle Gourlay did well to block his powerful effort from the edge of the area. The ball broke, however, to the incoming Alfredo Morelos, and he hit it first-time from 25-yards with his effort only just clearing the bar. Rangers continued to threaten, and Murphy had another effort from distance held by Gourlay, while the goalkeeper made a super block at his near-post as George Edmundson flicked a Jordan Jones corner goalwards. A grounded Lewis Mayo had an effort on the six-yard line deflected over, while Gourlay denied Morelos from close-range on the end of a Murphy ball into the area. Greg Stewart then did well to intercept a Gourlay ball to full-back Kyle Munro but after superbly dancing his way into the area, he fired his eventual effort over the bar. All the play was being made by Rangers, and the chances were only going one way – and with just three minutes left, the Light Blues were awarded a penalty with Markus Fjortoft bringing down Morelos inside the area. Up-stepped El Buffalo to take it, and he expertly dispatched it into the back of the net, waiting for Gourlay to move right before finishing to his left, to win the game for the Light Blues. This was a very worthwhile exercise for Gers as they stepped up their preparations for the new season. Next up is Ligue 1 side Lyon on Thursday evening Article Copyright © 2020.

Rangers should have nothing to do with BLM

Obtain an illegal link such as i....pay the futters eff all.

Please don't post the full article from the Rangers site, @The Tin Man. Just the first paragraph and then a link, so that Rangers get the hits.

Surely we need more than a two-bob striker? (A joke for the pre-decimation generation.)

Say that ain't so!! I heard that Rousseau was Beale.

I have it on good authority that Beale receives a notification every time @Rousseau posts.

I'm guessing down the docks. Never had you marked as that sort of fellow.

Dominating possession by the sound of it but losing a goal early and not scoring as many as they should. Familiar.

Yep 2-1 Bassey and Morelos with a penalty

I believe we won 2-1?

And notice that nowhere does the word 'Glasgow' appear. There are still people who don't know the name of our club.

Is the topic poster from a different planet or a plant stirring things up?.

They've got a limited broadcast area, these things are licensed. It'll be similar geographically to Radio Clyde if that helps.

Dreadful news. He's a great guy. My son attended his football school in Lanzarote on several occasions and he even bought me a beer in the Terrace Bar in Playa Blanca, and I had quite a few chats with him over the years. Let's hope the operation in Gran Canaria is successful. All the best Nissy!

Nice sentiments, he can certainly talk the talk... Another cracking interview by the lads. It’s nice to be able to read a piece knowing that nothing’s being taken out of context or misrepresented in anyway. Quite refreshing really. In the week when the DR’s parent company announced hundreds of redundancies you think they’d take note...

Haughey, you say? Include me out.

Steamy Windows. The old double act have pulled on the Hollicom jerseys and are well to the fore these last couple of days. Big Chris is thrusting up front, Alison is taking it in, whilst stimulating and encouraging deeper penetration. Obscuration is required, lots of obscuration. The heavily animated pair are gesticulating, demonstratively indicating the preferred channel. Enduring concealment demands a fine balance between weighty particles and sufficient propellant to find the mark. Putting up a smoke screen is one thing, watching it blow away is another. We should realise the responsibility placed upon Alison's broad shoulders, blowing away for all her worth, hoping Chris can sustain his barreling performance. You see the entire separate entity thing is beginning to unravel. Stronger lights are being shone into the darkest of corners, revealing carefully constructed layered defences. The cabal that is the Scottish Government, the SFA, and Celtic FC had constructed a squirrel. The SFA Review into Football Child Abuse is already a year late in delivering it's report. The Chair, Martin Henry has issued a nothing statement and also revealed he is currently too ill to say anything further. This, in the week where Solicitor, Patrick McGuire representing those sexually abused whilst playing for Celtic Boys' Club, is demanding the release of the SFA Review findings. It is believed Celtic are in possession of a copy of the findings? Martin Henry's appointment as Chair of the Review is mind boggling. Academic qualifications and work experience in Social Work would deem Henry a reasonable choice?However, he founded LBGT Youth Scotland with James Rennie in 2003. Six years later, Rennie was convicted of sexually abusing a child for four years from the age of four months until nearly five years. James Rennie's life partner was Neil Strachan; he was convicted as part of an Edinburgh based paedophile ring. Strachan was Secretary of Celtic Boys' Club in Edinburgh. One wonders as to the suitability of Henry Chairing the SFA Review, when he failed to reveal the nefarious dealings of his founding business partner? Further, Martin Henry was the Safeguarding Advisor to the calamitous Cardinal O'Brien. This last week, both Chris and Alison have made all the runs, they are demanding attention. Alison has trolled Rangers over the Castore strip launch, pointing at the spectre of Mike Ashley. Yesterday, she was proclaiming Kieran Tierney was an Arsenal snip at £25 million, based on one appearance against Leicester City. Chris has dismissed Rangers supporters claims of a SPFL fixture carve-up ie Rangers being away to last season's top six twice before the break and the first old firm game happening several weeks after it's usual slot, to allow Yahoos into the ground. Further, Chris has facilitated former team mate, Alan Thompson to tell us all, seventeen years after the event; that when Chris talked of Dunfermiline laying down, he spoke for us all. I suspect, no matter how hard Alison and Chris go at it, the steamy windows being created are only as a result of condensation. They will clear away and the questions awaiting Martin Henry will still need answering?

While we're in the business of toppling offensive statues, isn't there one right there...

Makes you laugh we've been underachievers for years and some of the fans throw a tizzy about a crest
