Far too many "fans" on here

That is fucking sickening. 8k a week! Ffs!

I know what you mean mate. We've just got to hope he has the nous tactically, and for spotting a player. I just hope he is backed to try and form what he wants to do. I like the sound of what he is trying to build, i just hope the under performances latelu are solely down to a lack of talent in the current crop

Borders on ridiculous at times with these journo's pulling names out their arse. I agree with you though i preferred the days when a deal was just done and announced. Maybe thats just a sign of the times and a way of players and moreso their agents opening up their options and potential for increased wages. Do we have any idea what the likes of halliday, Holt etc are earning out of interest?

Deffo mate, i think that is the case re the TV channel and I'm not having a go at Pedro. I'm pleased to here he is right on the case You know what the media are like up here though. Utter cretins who will link us with many derived entirely out of their own dome.

This. Takes an age, and all over the papers. I'd prefer it if it was all done behind closed doors and announced "we have signed...". Got to wonder sometimes how many players we have lost out on in the past as it was openly known we were persuing someone, and in turn alerting another club with more wedge. Sign them. Announce it. No chance of unearthing some potential gems otherwise. Signing a gem given our current position may be a bit too optimistic right enough! Can but hope

Served us well this season, and an argument could of been made for a one year extension, but i think Pedro will have his sights on a younger (hopefully better) CB, and as already mentioned wages could have been a factor

Many will have missed the boat now but if there was ever a time to make an impression on Pedro and for him to reconsider their Rangers future (even as squad players), these games will be it, as meaningless as they are. That time may well have gone now already, and hopefully so for a good number

Remember it very clearly, and like others have alluded where the fuck has the time gone! Was in the west stand with my bro and dad. Place went nuts when lovenkrands scored! Happy days

Positive to read. Just hope he is backed and is able to shift the deadweight. Whilst the concept of having a really young, tippy tappy, athletic and possession driven squad was good (and worked in the championship) it's clear as day the relatively young team we have are incapable of performing consistently in the SPL, and we now need men in the team that can do the business, rather than the BB team we have become. You would have thought down to every player they would have been working their baws off to feature in Pedro's plans, but no, they have obviously thought they were infallible. It may prove difficult but i can but hope we can shift the imposters

I'll be renewing ST for sure, just need to make a decision on whether or not to do cccs again though.

This is getting ridiculous. It's indefensble and i can't abide people like that but on a separate issue no articles printed re them singing pro IRA lyrics and revelling in the murder of British citizens (despite largely being British themselves). No articles condemning their players goading our support (despite i would imagine being warned by plod), or their OTT behaviour after the game. No articles re the referee not taking action. Again, I'm not defending the indefensible of people's reactions but the potential for inciting violence was there and the players have a responsibility to behave in a certain way. If we did what they did we would be hammered for it. I also don't believe for a minute one and more of them didn't shout a racial slur to Wes but you don't see him talking about 'racial hell'. They really are painted as holier than thou whilst there is a clear witchunt on us that they and people of their ilk in the media just can't wait to pounce on

Don't mind me was having a blonde moment Not too young (unfortunately) but it comes back to me now that you mention it that levein did that. Ludicrous

Eh, maths is not my strongest point but ...

Waghorn "i don't even speak to myself" . Apart from how preposterous that is maybe he should tell himself one thing, 'put the ball in the back of the net...Many times'

The problem with Wladimir is he doesn't like to get hit or will be up for a tear up. Vitali was always of a different mindset to me and would be the one of the two that would be up for a war. I don't think wladimir has that in him. I hope it turns out to be a cracking fight, but if AJ enters beast mode and doesn't show wladimir too much respect i can see him knocking him the fuck out

I know. Look, we all want the same thing mate, the means of getting there looks like it's going to be a shaky path. we want instant success, we want to compete against them, we want to smash teams we are playing. I just think the playing personnell is all wrong/doesnt have the mettle, and i just hope he is supported to bring in strength to the team in key areas that gets us back to a certain level. The whole thing is frustrating, angering, and a host of adjectives that are not pleasant. One things for sure king needs to support him to a higher degree otherwise we are completely fucked for the foreseeable

Fingers hit submit before i had finished. As the manager he will bear the responsibility and I'm not giving him a free pass, but when you have a predominantly pish team at his disposal he's not all of a sudden going to turn is into a force to be reckoned with. Patience is going to be needed. We all want it now, but he needs supported by us, financially (), and the opportunity to bring in players he thinks that will take us up a level. Today is sore, but in the current climate not entirely unexpected unfortunately

Ffs there really is some crackpot comments in here. It's his first loss, he's using players that he has inherited and would never have brought to the club. I doubt the best of managers could do much better with this current team. If players like waghorn et al would take their fucking chances it would be a different story (I'm not necessarily talking about today's game but in general, although waghorn was fucking chronic again). What chance have you got when there are so many underperforming, not to mention inferior players at his disposal. It seems to me Warburton's philosophy is still ingrained within the team (as it was so one dimensional), and it will take time, new players, shite ones ousted, and a preseason before we can start judging Pedro. Judging him just now with a team that is full of shitebags, inadequate, can't follow instruction and/or are stuck in the mindset of his predecessors philosophy is insane. Too many folk on here are too quick to write the guy off without giving him a fair shake. At the end of the day he's here, he is our manager, so we need to get right behind him. I'm sure he will already have identified many of our frailties and will have plans. We will be a different outfit next season. It didn't pay off today, but he is at least someone who will change it up if it's not working. I'd point more to the players not turning up or not giving a fuck today than hanging Pedro. It's clear as day that many players just aren't up to the task no matter what formation or tactics are used. Gee the guy a break. Next season is where he will be judged, not after a game against them that seeming manager wannabes on here know better and over react. I'm sure he will have learned a lot even from today, and i expect a different game next Saturday. Let's not jump the gun and write the guy off before he has even been given the chance to imprint his own ideas, or bring in players on a no doubt limited budget, but he needs that opportunity

Ah right i see, cheers mate. I mind the reports at the time of that one kicking off, flares, smoke bombs etc Incidentally can we go and watch, i.e under 20's? My dad has mentioned of some people he knows that do but i don't know if they have links with the club or its a relative that's playing or something. Would just be interesting to watch now and again to see who is progressing, especially having seen how beerman has done a job coming into our first team

Should have gone to this, didn't realise it was on

Dont get a signal but glued to watching what is in front of us anyway to even think about it. It's a time to switch off from any shite that's happening in our lives imo, not continue social media and miss things happening in the game. Rightly or wrongly I think theres probably a good percentage of folks that have bets on that they are checking. If it's facebook, whatsapp, general texts etc they need a boot in the baws/fanny. At the end of the day it's up to them whatever the fuck they do, but it is odd to me to not want to switch off from the outside world for 90 mins and enjoy (hopefully) watching every bit of the match, any decent bit of play, skill, touch, shot, save, see how players are moving, progressing, who's playing pish etc

Anyone know what the deadline is for uplifting tickets ?

True or not he is far too inconsistent. I wouldn't be sorry to see him go to be honest, he doesn't have the mettle to play for us. 3 goals and 3 assists all season is deplorable. He can have the odd good game of course but if we can get a decent fee i think he should be moved on while we can still make some money on him

Gone up by £25 to £625. Main stand front. With cccs as well it can fair add up. Caixinha better get some money to play with!
