keith jackson ‏@tedermeatballs 1h1 hour ago Early morning klaxon. That's the Gedion Zelalem deal now confirmed. He's signed for Rangers from Arsenal on a season long loan.

A visit to a packed Ibrox on Sunday might just seal the deal.

From our friend on FF My source just text to say deal is back on.He sent me screen shot of booking reservation from 21st August.

I wonder where the money is coming from ? The $4 million sale of Newcastle Jets to a consortium led by Dundee United chairman Stephen Thompson appears to be imminent, with the Scotsman due in Sydney to complete the purchase of the licence from Football Federation Australia. On-going negotiations between Thompson and FFA have been shrouded in secrecy, and the Tangerines chief signed a non-disclosure agreement last month. FFA said it was not “in a position to discuss the ownership of the Newcastle Jets", and Thompson could not be contacted by The World Game on Friday. However, A-League head Damien de Bohun hinted earlier this month that a new owner was close to being unveiled and that the governing body was ‘‘well progressed’’ and confident of having the matter finalised by the time the season kicks off in early October. ‘‘We set ourselves the goal of having this resolved before the start of the season, and that’s very much the target. It’s unfair to talk about who’s in the mix exactly, because previously these sorts of processes can take all sorts of twists and turns," de Bohun said. Thompson, who has turned the Scottish Premiership club from a financial basket case to one of the few solvent top flight football entities in his homeland, had agreed to buy the club from former owner Nathan Tinkler in May. However, the fallen mining baron was stripped of his licence as the club convulsed under a cascade of debt. Thompson has been circling the franchise since December and was last in Australia in June for on a two-week fact finding mission. Thompson and fellow Tangerines director Mike Martin, a former executive with the global banking group HSBC, held discussions with key stakeholders on the Hunter, and also with FFA chiefs. http://theworldgame.sbs.com.au/article/2015/08/21/thompson-due-sydney-complete-jets-purchase

It would be nice to think Warburton has also taken into consideration the form of our own, Walsh, McKay and Holt. I can understand some loans, but much prefer watching our own young players.

Dyche is friends with Laws father, don't think Law is near good enough for Burnley.

@AndyNewportPA: Rangers season ticket sales pass the 33,000 barrier

From the best on FF 2 more signings to come by Wednesday.One from Arsenal and one from Chelsea. More details to follow.WATP.

Looks like BTTS is the bet for Rangers games this season.

Anybody have the the pics of him today ? Regrets, I have a few.

@gerrymcculloch1: Apparently Rangers were happy to pay Scott Allan same wage as Celtic. Hibs just wouldn't sell and player had to get out.

He has signed a 4 year deal.

HaHa I suggested a few weeks ago he would be ideal for a front 3, never expected that kind of money.

http://www.rangers.co.uk/news/headlines/item/9842-spurs-duo-arrive-on-loan RANGERS can tonight confirm the signing 19-year-old Nathan Oduwa and 20-year-old Dominic Ball on season long loans, subject to international clearance. The pair arrive at Ibrox from Premier League Tottenham Hotspur, where they are highly thought of and will be Mark Warburton’s eighth and ninth signings of the summer. Oduwa is a left sided attacker but can also play as a number 10 or through the middle and Ball is a defender with experience of playing in midfield. Ball is an England Under 21 international; he has also played for his country at Under 19 and Under 20 level, after switching from representing Northern Ireland, where he starred at five different age levels, from Under 15s to Under 21s. He spent the second half of last season on loan to Cambridge United after signing on January 22 and made his Football League debut five days later in a 1-1 draw with Dagenham & Redbridge. He made 11 appearances for The U’s as they finished 19th in their first season back in the Football League. Ball was named on the bench for Spurs Europa League 2-2 draw away to Benfica in March 2014 and was again an unused substitute for two of their games during the 2014/15 season in Europe again and against Hull City in the league. Oduwa was also on loan in League Two last season, making three starts for Luton Town and eight appearances off the bench. He spent three month at Kenilworth Road from February to May. He signed for the Tottenham academy in July 2012 and he scored 10 goals for their Under 18 side during the 2013/14 season. The fast paced attacked also scored in a dramatic game pre-season when a Spurs XI took on Stevenage and won 2-0.

@RangersFC: .@RangersFC can tonight confirm the signing of Nathan Oduwa & Dominic Ball on season long loans from @SpursOfficial http://t.co/NYd6KG695P

Rumours he has knocked them back, just rumours tho'.

@BBCSportsound: RT @bbckennymac:@celticfc have made an offer of cash plus players to @HibsOfficial for Scott Allan. #Celtic #Hibs Comments to #BBCSportsound

p @OfficialHDean: Comments in media were taken out of context as usual. For the record Warbs was a top man and manager, it was a pleasure to work with him.

@ChrisGraham76: Nathan Oduwa and Dominic Ball coming in on loan from Spurs as we make more additions to the squad.

@exposingphil: @Rangers1ST If there are convictions then potentially money could be pursued via asset recovery orders. This is Rangers' money.7 figure sum @exposingphil: The Bernstein kickbacks were the ones originally flagged into SFO, lots of initial investors seemed to have come to similar arrangements @exposingphil: Funnily enough everyone other than the Easdale's seem to have got a decent deal. Ahmad just seems to have ripped the utter piss out of them. @exposingphil: Should say before the good professor gets on the phone that the Easdale's aren't suspected of any criminal activity....just of being cunts.

Waghorn was far better on the right.

@exposingphil: No downside for us, some loathsome, well known characters facing jail time & possible financial benefit for Rangers.

Only posting what I am reading.

@exposingphil: It's been suggested this could lead to dispute over ownership of Rangers assets, someone wiser than me in these matters assures me it can't.
