Na I think Pena will be a cert to start most games tbh. One thing is for sure it is good to have options and hopefully decent options at that.

it's defo good to have the options

I'd imagine he'd play instead of Holt as it stands. Pena and Kranjcar will be the more offensive central midfielders.

I'd hope there will be a place for Rossiter in our starting 11 if he can stay fit think he'd compliment the side, I can see Niko being used sparingly in the league with possibly a midfield of Rossiter, Jack and Dorrans being preferred choice for most league games.

Foderingham 6

Tavernier 6

FGS Tavernier

3-1 Rangers FGS Windass

I think it's a no brainer offering Miller a new deal he has been one of our best performers if not our best this season and has plenty left to offer,

as for Lafferty I'd rather we looked elsewhere but like the Naismith rumour it doesn't seem to be going away so might be something in it

Defence not bad right now, a midfield general is what we need, but none in our price range.

agree the defence is performing better just now but still feel a commanding centre half is a must going forward

12 month down the line I'd be hoping that we are a fair bit closer in terms of points to them and ahead of Aberdeen. and like Compo I'd hope at the very least we have a commanding centre half.

Hatchet job is the way I read it.

 

The new signings haven't worked out yet!,Windass,Crooks & Rossiter are very talented young players who could develope into quality players but all have had injuries,is that the fault of the manager?,as for our CB situation MW did try and address the problems but failed to get them!,Barton might have worked out and Kranjcar was beginning to show progress!,Garner has yet to find his feet.We are not in a position to go out and buy the top quality players that everyone wants!.

There is no doubt in my mind we are heading in the right direction since MW came in,it's just not happening quick enough for some!,until we get some cash investment we will have to sign players on the cheap!.

Agree with Ian

The new signings need time to settle and come to terms with playing for Rangers.

Obviously we'd all have loved them to click & gel together as quickly as last seasons side but it is still way too early to be writing them all off

I agree with that mate

Bell doesn't command the box like Foderingham still think he'd be an able deputy though but would have no problem with him being moved on either

I think Cammy Bell is a decent shot stopper and would make a good back-up keeper if required,

Templeton frustrates live out of me can see he has talent but lacks the mental toughness to play for Rangers

100% the right thing to do

Well done Frankie

Chris Eagles did he not reject us a few year back thinking he was better than the SPL level ?

I'd take Vuckic back he'd add to the team

I didn't mean that Numan would be expensive mate

I just meant that i don't see current board looking at options other than the ones being linked already that are currently unemployed

As much as I'd love to see an Arthur Numan type appointment i think we'll end up with a cheap option probably from list of names being tipped Butcher, McCall and Shiels and so on!

Hopefully it wouldnt be any of them though

As an outside option id consider Gary Locke felt he handled Hearts situation well and had a young team playing and fighting for each other which has benefitted Hearts this season

For those asking "what happens if/when King takes over" I think it's quite simple. At a high level:

 

We will have someone who genuinely has the clubs best interests at heart

We will have someone who is in a position to provide the necessary finance

We will get the club stabalised in the first time in years

We will have a team appointed at Board level who will work hard to get the club going again

We will have finances to be able to improve the quaility of the football team

We will have a scouting network

We will have no issue with leaseback on our assests

We will have people in place who will not neglect Ibrox stadium and will ensure it is brought back up to the standards that it deserves

We will have an owner who will ensure our voice is heard in the Scottish game and wie will not be walked all over

 

....and so on.

I agree with this and we all know there won't be a quick fix to all our problems the appointment of a board of people all working and striving in right direction will be a huge step in right direction!

I believe Dave King knows who will be with him when he gains control and I think Mr King is happy to be in spotlight where others would prefer to remain in background for time being!

Like many others my only fear is what kind of position both on & off the park we'll be in by time the change happens

I'm in if my bookies record is anything to go by I'll finish last lol

I wasn't keen on the signing purely because i felt it would mean a route one type approach this season, but i've been impressed with the big mans attitude and performance level so far and hope he continues to shine!

Like a few others i'd like to see him and Clark given a run of games together

Good luck to them Both

I'm sorry to Bocanegra go from initially thinking he was a pointless signing he quickly became a big part of the team.

Think I already follow a few on here

@kenashdow

Not overly keen on the idea of this happening but have heard that we have approached Darren Barr from Hearts

Wonder who he has lined up for Manager?

Neil Warnock with Nigel Spackman as number two is rumour I have heard

I'd like to see Arthur Numan and Giovanni Van Bronckhorst as a duo in charge of Rangers but sadly I don't see that happening anytime soon

If Ally is to be replaced we'll end up with someone like Jim Jeffries or Kenny Shiels to try get us up through the divisions imho
