Frank Lampard can go and fuck himself.

Sacked by Inverness already ?

Founder Peter Campbell was born at Garelochhead on the 6th March 1857.
Peter came from a more privileged background than his fellow Pioneers.
His father John was a harbour master, his mother Mary was sister of Sir James Jenkins, honorary surgeon to Queen Victoria. The family home was “Craigellan”, a large sandstone villa in the lochside village of Garelochhead.
A life on the ocean wave was always seemingly inevitable for the youngest of our founders given the sea-faring family to which he belonged but it was the ocean wave that tragically claimed his life at the age of 25.
In the early 1870’s Peter moved to Glasgow and joined the Barclay Curle shipyard as an apprentice.
When he and his friends Peter and Moses McNeil and William McBeath struck upon the idea of forming a football club it was no doubt a welcome release from the Clyde-side for Peter.
He served a five-year apprenticeship with Barclay Curle and a further two years as a journeyman until 1879 while playing for the newly-formed Rangers.
He was one of the better players in the fledgling side. Indeed he was described in annuals of the time as one of most outstanding players of the period.
Like his fellow founders, Campbell played in that first match in May 1872 and went on to become a pivotal player for Rangers.
Campbell, who was vice-captain of Rangers, played for Glasgow against Sheffield in 1876 when he and Moses became the first Rangers players to gain representative honours.He scored five goals in the 1876/77 Cup campaign when Rangers made it all the way to their first final but as previously described they agonisingly lost 3-2 in a second replay to Vale of Leven.
His last match for Rangers was a Scottish Cup tie against the dominant Queen’s Park which was lost 5-1 in September 1879 and then he became one of the first Scottish players to move to England when he joined Blackburn Rovers and played for them briefly before hanging up his boots.
The smell of the salt was too strong in his nostrils. He is said to have had seven spells at sea with the London-based merchant ship Margaret Banks in the next three years and then, fatefully, he was on board the St Columba which was bound for Bombay with coal when it left Penarth in South Wales in January 1883.In horrific weather the boat never got past the Bay of Biscay off western France and Peter was pronounced drowned on March 3.The youngest of our founders died aged just 25.On Saturday 22nd July 2017, after a period of negotiation with Penarth Council, we unveiled a memorial plaque at Penarth Pier to commemorate the life of Peter Campbell and his contribution in the formation of Rangers Football Club.The memorial was funded by our Restoration of Rangers Graves Project.
We’re fortunate to have something more tangible to remember Peter Campbell by.He was a member of the first Rangers’ side to win a trophy, the Glasgow Merchants’ Charity Cup in 1879,and there’s an incredible story behind the medal that Peter won that day.
Fellow Rangers supporter William Mason contacted us to tell of how one of his friends had found this medal belonging to Peter Campbell in a park in East Kilbride in 1968. A few years ago his friend loaned the medal to Rangers and Peter Campbell’s medal is on display in the Blue Room at Ibrox.
This is a permanent reminder of the contribution Peter Campbell made in forming our great Club.
Today as we charge towards our 55th League title we remember Founder Peter Campbell.
 
 

Everybody talks about Walter Smith coming in and signing Weir and Ehigou to shore up the defence, but look at the way he addressed the middle of the park too.
Sold Clement, who was a decent, cultured midfielder, but probably not a player best suited to what we needed to become at that time to win the title back, and replaced him for the same money with Thomson, who could play but had that little bit more steel, know how of the league and leadership than Clement did. 
Fuck I wish there was somebody out there who knew exactly how to manage this club without even thinking about it in the same way that Walter Smith did. A rare bread, who’s sorely missed for a number of reasons.

Right now I'm really worried he'll cost us the league Cup against a team we should absolutely be beating.

Fuck me, I thought that was tonights XI at first glance.

This is fucking mental.
One game into the season, one fucking game.
Cunts wanting a manager fired over some pre-season fucking friendlies and one game on a shite pitch.
Get a fucking grip people.

I know we always say football is fucked but....its totally fucked 

A year ago today we lost the best ever goalie I've ever seen.
 

I've said it a million times and I'll keep saying it until it happens: I hope I live long enough to see the arse fall out the English game and it totally collapse because its just nonsense now.

Some poor Saudis are going to end up with that annoying prick on their forum  

They 2 will end up over there working without being embarrassed

They really are disgusting bastards man. Imagine trying to have a civilised meal and that fat wean raping mess breezes in. Boak!

Wish cunts would fuck up about Duk he’s nowhere near the level we need 

Maybe just hold the schadenfreude til we’re actually lifting silverware again, as somebody else pointed out they’ve got a strong record of getting their appointments right
If we don’t fix ourselves from last season then it’ll mean fuck all

Their display set-up  

Aye, agreed.
Surprised we haven't decided to keep him fit before.

MB is right.
Perhaps some will wisen up to why Morelos was targeted and now Cantwell is.

Ffs bin this pish 

Get this thread so far to fuck. Played well for the majority of the game.
Is the OP @Gman36 forgetting his lack of game time? Davies sold the jerseys far more than Souttar.
FFS mate have a word.

Scrolling through twitter and see "Rangers are delighted to announce goalkeeper @therealgreegsy1 will be rewarded..."
 

Thread locked and won't be re-opened until there's reason for Gerrard as a Manager to be discussed to this level. 
Member restricted from posting for 48 hours and told to stop posting about Gerrard as I'm unsure if he's a Rangers fan or Gerrard fan.

Game lost before kickoff.
All on the manager.
