I am amazed I have to defend myself on here. I have been a Rangers fan watching Rangers matches home and away too since 1990 aged 16. My first game was Gers V Hearts at Ibrox. I am grateful to RFCRobertson for changing the Wikipedia page as I wasn't sure how to do it. For those that posted stupid comments, check some of my previous posts. I am not a recent member of this site, I joined 9 years ago.

Was just reading articles about Ian Durrant after the game v sheep botherers today and saw the below. Scumbags sheep fans. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ian_Durrant In October 1988 Durrant will be remembered for diving in a match against Aberdeen at Pittodrie. A challenge by Aberdeen's Neil Simpson left him out of competitive football for almost three years.

Anyone know if Rossiter is injured at the moment. He hasn't been in a match day squad since the Killie game. If he is not injured, it seems harsh him not getting a game as he was very effective in the games I have seen.

Would would be everyone's 1st choice centre half pairing? Don't know how to set up a vote thingy. I personally would have Senderos and Hill. Hill is better at sitting in and reading the game like Sir Davie did and Senderos attacks the ball like Amo used to. Kiernan I think has been found out at this next level up and Wilson at times makes me very nervous. Whats your choice?

Some well taken goals. All gone quiet with regards to his contract. Really hope he stays for 4 or 5 years.

Have seen several mentions of AH shouting encouragement to the rest of the team when they were in the tunnel before they came out last night. Lots have said great to said its great to see such passion. I wholeheartedly agree, I think he could be a great shout for a future captain. Has anyone got any clips "youtube" etc, of it. I didn't get to watch last night as I was working.

Does this game go to a replay or extra time and penalties?

Difficult balancing act between blooding our own players and getting good quality players from EPL teams.

Don't think it will be as easy as some think tbh. Hope I'm wrong and Gers walk it. Love to see Thompson get 30 mins. Looks a great prospect.

Will be interesting to see the team formation in January if / when we sign a defensive midfield. Andy Halliday who has been superb, will replace who out of Zalelem or Jason Holt? AH is wasted as a DM with his range of passing.

nerve racking stuff

How long left?

Hopefully Gers superior fitness will start to tell now.

Keep the updates coming in lads. Stuck at work and canny watch the game.

Law was injured during the Livi game.

Bench is very thin for defense, only Aird who has been turned into a makeshift full back by W & W. Area for reinforcement in January.

Dave King in the below article on the Gers website has spoken of the millions spent on player costs and other expenses. I wish the club would show exactly how much this is, i.e. how much each player got as a signing on fee for example. For players like Danny Wilson and Andy Halliday, they were "free transfers" but how much did it cost in signing on and agent fees. Can't see this degree of transparancy tbh though. http://www.rangers.co.uk/news/headlines/item/9721-season-tickets-break-30k-barrier Rangers chairman Dave King was also full of praise for the fans who have bought tickets and said that Rangers are quickly getting back to normal after the wilderness years. "As a Rangers fan it is great and comforting that we are now mostly talking about football matters,’ he said. "This is what the Board is aiming to achieve. The fans are starting to focus again on what is happening on the pitch and this is a sure sign that behind the scenes everything is falling into place and running more smoothly. "I am aware some fans have been concerned about the amount of investment in the club and hopefully they will now appreciate that not only are we spending millions on player costs but we have also invested the funds required to meet the club's costs on a monthly basis during the recent months when there has been no income. We have been doing this since we were successful at the general meeting on March 6. "The manager has also been signing players because we are trying to build a new team capable of winning the Championship and progressing from there. Players will continue to be added but I want to thank those fans who have bought tickets and urge others to do the same. "I want this to be a special season for Rangers and one that lays the foundations for our return to the top flight and, as I have said before, we can’t do it alone. We need the support to be with us all the way."

Cover for Wallace at left back, cover for Tavernier at right back, DM possibly Eustace, possibly Scott Allan and another striker. Still a bit to do.

Whats the betting gonna be that Gers V Hibs will be our first game, same as last years against Hearts.

Without wishing to sound ungrateful, could you explain how to fix it. I don't feel confident in passing my bank details to someone I don't know.

I tried to listen to the match commentary for our last game through the match console on the Official Rangers website. The commentary would not play and it showed that I did not have Java script enabled. I have checked and it is enabled. I have downloaded the very latest from the Java website and it still says the same. Is anyone else having similar problems and how do I sort this out? I have up until recently been listening to commentaries using this method.

I really hope Ness does come good. When he scored THAT goal against the Tims, I hoped he would become a 1st team starter. I've always been really impressed with how calm and composed he is. He seems to have ages on the ball. I hope he gets all these injuries sorted soon.

The first helicopter sunday when we played Hibs and Celtic lost 2.1 at Motherwell, with McDonald scoring twice. He was a Rangers hero that day. I'll always like that man no matter what he later did when he played for the East end shite. What an amazing day that was. 2003 when we beat Dunfermline 6.1 to beat their score, I think they won 4.0. Arteta ice ice cool with a last minute penalty. Also, winning the title in 1999 at the Piggery. 1st time a title had been clinched by one half of the Old Firm at the others stadium, (loosely termed in their case). I was on holiday with an ex-girlfriend. That made my holiday. I fact that was the best thing about the holiday.

I would far rather punt the following; McCulloch, injuries have caught up with him. No sell on value. Ortiz has been disappointing, we may be able to re-coup what we paid for him. Ness is a great prospect but really worrying how often he is injured. Bedoya and McKay have been given such a small amount of playing time, the fans have no real idea how good they could be. There must be something Ally sees every day in training, that stops him from playing them both.

A bloke I work with is a Feyernoord fan and he said he had always been impressed whenever he watched Bruins play. My question is do we really need more midfielders when we currently have "deep breath", Edu, McCulloch, Davis, Wylde, Aluko, Bedoya, McKay, Ortiz, Celik, Naismith and Ness when / if he ever regains fitness.
