Little General

I've not seen much of Kelly, but Bell isn't very good with the ball at his feet the way Foderingham is. I would suspect another keeper to come in with this attribute, for back up to Foderingham.

What was said mate?

some run of the mill questions, however a few questions gave you an insight into their way of thinking and approach to football.You would be better getting it on demand from RTV for £4.

Tom Miller can be a bit cringeworthy.

thoroughly enjoyable.over £7,000 raised.

Our management team are class.

not going to this tonight but I registered and bought it on RTV for £4. all proceeds to Rangers charity

does your chewing gum lose it's flavour on the bed post overnight

my old man's a dustman or Warburton is magic, he wears a magic hat.

I thought it was the King of Skiffle,Lonnie Donegan, you were referring to at first:oops:

http://www.therst.co.uk/news/rst-statement-on-mark-burchill/

We call on the SFA to take the strongest possible action against Livingston manager, Mark Burchill after comments made by him on Radio Clyde tonight.

Burchill, in trying to justify the thuggish actions of his players in the Petrofac Cup tie against Rangers last night and Kieron Gibbons in particular, stated that:

"Kieron Gibbons is a young, talented Scottish footballer who has signed for a Scottish club. Nathan Oduwa is an English footballer who has not signed for a Scottish club. So we are dragging someone over the coals who is one of our own - who is a player who could possibly play for Scotland in the future."

His comments are at best xenophobic and at worst casual racism. The idea that Scottish players should be able to get away with serious foul play if their target is of another nationality is quite incredible.

Burchill is condoning his player's attempt to seriously injure an opposition player. That he's doing it based on a blinkered, backward and insular assessment of a player's worth to the Scottish game makes his comments even worse.

Nathan Oduwa is a highly talented young player. He is the type of fast, exciting, skilful player that fans pay to see, regardless of his team or nationality. For a Scottish manager to suggest this type of player may not make a worthwhile contribution to our game is deeply concerning. If this attitude is prevalent it may go some way to explaining our national side's relative lack of success in recent years. If Nathan Oduwa only spends a year in Scotland he'll contribute more to the Scottish game than players like Kieron Gibbons will in a lifetime.

In the middle of a fortnight of action from Show Racism the Red Card, Burchill's comments are unwelcome and worthy of attention from the SFA if they are serious about tackling such issues in football.

It seems we are gradually moving into, and becoming, a modern football club.

as always though, the proof of the pudding, is the success on and off the park.

RANGERS Football Club is today delighted to announce the appointment of Frank McParland as Head of Recruitment.

The 56 year-old has been working as Sporting Director at Burnley, and has gained a wealth of experience at various clubs over an impressive career.

A boyhood Liverpool fan, McParland enjoyed two spells on the red half of Merseyside. He worked firstly as Chief Scout between 2003 and 2007, and is credited with unearthing Raheem Sterling and Jordan Ibe in his second spell when working as Director of Academy and Player Development from 2009 to 2013.

He has previously worked alongside Mark Warburton as Director of Football at Brentford before leaving London at the same time as the current Rangers manager during the summer of 2015.

In addition, he also worked as Director of Football at Watford Football Club between 2008 and 2009.

McParland is the latest appointment to be made at Rangers as the club strives to modernise, move forward and return to the highest echelons of the game.

New benchmarks and standards must be set both on and off the field of play, and everyone at Rangers wishes Frank the very best in his new role.

I am doing the sponsored walk on Saturday from Flesher's Haugh to Burnbank then to Ibrox.

proceeds go the restoration project.

The detail of the research is astounding, both Ian and Gordon are a credit to our support.

if anyone would like to donate to the project the link is below.

Yes improvements have to be made in respect to the blind fans and also the ambulant disabled too, the aim is access for all.

Thanks FS.

Gone are the days that someone was commentating next to the blind supporters.

plug in radio commentary seems the way forward.It's a pity they have stopped the WIFI (maybe due to criminal case?), as commentary on there could have provided blind fans with freedom to choose any part of the stadium to sit.

Johnny Hubbard will be signing copies of his book at Waterstones on Ayr High Street at 2pm on Saturday 24th October

ordered it of Amazon and will read it when I have time in next week or two.

looking forward to it.

What other disabilities do Rangers have to comply with FS?

I saw this wee piece on BBC regarding blind supporters

http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p034ftmx?intc_type=promo&intc_location=sport&intc_campaign=blindfootballfan&intc_linkname=5live_fac_vidclip1

I know there is/was blind supporters in the Enclosure. do Rangers have to upgrade for blind supporters also?

looks like it's been changed to Edinburgh HC.

Looks good, it didn't work for me with firefox adblocker enabled,ok now that I have disabled adblocker for this site only.

I don't see any SD advertisement:)

this happened to me Ian. I disabled it and it works.I have now put adblock back on again and it still works, so must have been a glitch.

I have just bought my first mobile phone last week and wonder if there is an app?

Just for clarification:

 

99 goals 331 appearances

 

if you count Glasgow Cup and Charity Cup games he played in...

 

108 goals 356 appearances

Thanks for that Bearman.

Kenny Miller as you say is on 81, George McLean (who played alongside Forrest) managed 83 in just 117 appearances (if only we had beaten Berwick, who knows how many those two would have got together?)

 

Colin Stein was close to achieving it...97 in 199 + 7 as a substitute, but Alex Scott got even closer with 99 goals in 331 games.

Bearman, according to my list (see attachment) Alex Scott scored 108 goals in 331 games.

These figures were taken from Robert McElroy's Rangers Miscellany.

Ten players have scored 200+...

How many would Jim Forrest have scored if not binned after Berwick. 145 goals in 163 appearances.

got Johnny's book delivered today "The Penalty King"

Rangers Centurion Goalscorers.pdf

31 Players have scored over 100 goals for Rangers through the years.Some terrific players and goalscorers on the list.

I believe the nearest to achieve this is Kenny Miller on 81 goals.

With players no longer staying at clubs long term, will we see any more added the the list?

ps if anyone sees any mistakes let me know:whistle:

St Mirren take a point of Hivs. Great chance for us tomorrow to put more distance between us.

yet again a story leaked via Mediahouse to that cunt McLaughlin.

he'd be better off trying to get legal aid than wanting Rangers to pay his legal fees.

Get well soon BH.

maybe King knows this hence his comments re oldco.
