Cifuentes - I haven't read much about him lately. For me, along with Butland, this could be the most important acquisition of the summer.

He's only a "class apart" because he got on the park to show it.

Great post @Graeme Ro55. A certain Derek Johnstone comes immediately to mind. Jock Wallace knew.

So our signing policy should be based on whether a player's uncle talks drivel? Jesus wept.

Interest from AC Milan and Juventus for Bologna's Lewis Ferguson. I always felt it was ridiculous Rangers didn't try to sign him but apparently he "wasn't good enough".

I think it might be very depressing

My bet is that with so many new players we will need all the old heads we can muster. Jack and Lundstram will both play a valuable role this coming season.

You have this in writing?

The only question in all of this is whether or not our young players can get regular competitive football without the Lowland League. If they can't then what is the point of having anything but a first team squad. In fact, what IS the point of all our youth teams?

Maybe one day there will be a reckoning ......

Not Rangers class?

Especially when he alleges he's received offers at twice the going rate 😉

Is there a hint that Douglas Park stepping down was a condition of KIng's support?

No but trophies certainly do produce memories

I'm genuinely disturbed at the apparent death of blind optimism and ignorant conjecture, both strangled by a cocophany of metrics and caveated analyses.

I imagine the self-admiring goons at Club1872 will be preening themselves to orgasm at the prospect of being relevant again. Will this mess never be settled?

I've just read 4 pages of utter cock about statistics that no one can agree on? The close season can be unbearable at times.

The good news is that by the end of October no one will need to rely on speculation or funny algorithms. We'll all be able to use our own eyes.

If that's the case then the real problem doesn't lie with either the DoF or the manager. The issue has to be the MD who hasn't ensured there are functionally effective boundaries between the two roles. It's clear to anyone with half an eye that Robertson was a weak character who should never have occupied the MD's chair. What's even more worrying is that the Chairman and his board either couldn't see Robertson's weakness or they were happy with it.

Exactly. I suspect it's actually quite a significant step up.

I don't understand why so many get so worked up about English clubs

I think the best way I can express my contempt for Filthy Rich Football is that I didn't bother watching it.

Hey, just because you're not able to sell the product, don't go blaming the customer for not buying. 😇
