Can't say i've seen him play recently but can't be worse than Law, Black, Hutton etc.
Always seemed a good prospect at youth level.
Read from Doncaster fans that he apparently plays better for his country than them. Haven't seen him play so can't verify it.
-
Captained our youth team then was captain at oldham and doncaster so must have good leadership which we could do with
Did furman not get in on the goal of the season a few years back.....don't think he won it but he had been on the shortlist. Interestingly McCall signed him for Bradford from us.

If they formed the bulk of our team we'd be in a battle for top 6.
You're probably right, but if our out of contract players leave as expected, our own youth players aren't particularly good and we gave to assume we aren't going to have 30m to spend on transfer fees for a new squad where we can offer 10k a week easily then what other option do we have?
I know that many seem to think we'll challenge for second spot next year but I can't see it happening that fast unless we make some incredibly shrew moves in the transfer market.
The fact I've been corrected in some of the players listed i.e. Kevin holt, shows that we have probably missed out on any gems for free transfers and we need to move fast.

Ali Crawford is under contract at Hamilton until 2018.
Gavin Reilly is a promising young player but looks like he is Hearts bound.
My mistake, so he is. Signed a 4 year deal in October last year......should have checked some of these rather than just believing my source!

Doing some digging around on the net I've found a list of young players out of contract this summer. I'd like to see us make moves for these guys to form the bulk of our team and look to sign a few key players for a fee to give us a core that we can build upon.
Aidan Connolly (left wing)- Dundee Utd
Gregg kiltie (left wing) - Kilmarnock
Liam polworth (central mid) - ICT
John McGinn (Central/left mid) - St Mirren
Kevin holt (left back) - QotS
Daniel Carmichael (right/left wing) - QotS
Gavin Reilly (striker) - QotS
Jack grimmer (right/centre back) - Fulham
Calum butcher (centre back) - Dundee Utd
Marley Watkins (left wing) - ICT
Kallum Higginbotham (right mid) - Patrick thistle
Nick Ross (attacking mid central) - ICT
Ali Crawford (left/central mid) - Hamilton
Mark Durnan (right/centre back) - QotS
I'm not suggesting we should buy all of these players nor that they will be full internationals or get sold on for money. I just think that some of these guys could help to bulk up the squad when the dozen or so out of contract players leave. I doubt their salaries would be that large and no transfer fees involved.
Would you sign any of these

McGregor
Hutton cuellar amoruso numan
Ricksen Ferguson van bronckhorst
De boer
Prso mols
Scary the number of players to leave out
-
I don't think we will be to be honest. I really don't. I have a horrible feeling McCall has been promised the job.
I doubt he's been promised the job. I think given king only became chairman last week things won't have started yet and it may be for the best to hold off until this Sunday.
-
Some people don't understand.
Rangers HAVE to explore all their options now. They're planning a complete rebuild in the off-season. Can't wade into that without a permanent manager, whether that's Stuart McCall or not, there has to be a plan in place to immediately begin the process of a stronger team for the following season.
If we weren't talking to other candidates etc at this moment, I'd be worried.
If we were automatically promoted then fair enough. I just hope the squad and McCall aren't unsettled too much or we could be in the championship again.
-
Really could do without this. McCall is in charge, he's done well to turn this mob around and we are nearly there. It's the wrong time for speculation, applications, interviews etc. let's focus on getting up then work out who will be in charge.
-
Jack grimmer
Alexia Eremenko
Scott Allan
Haris vuckic
Stevie May (loan)
Kevin holt
Darren Randolph
Hugo rodallega
Tal Ben-haim
Grant leadbitter
Carlos cuellar
-
Jelavic if we could but we can't, so forget that one.
Going to be hard to find someone that can do that and we can afford them, also depends on our division next year. If we don't get up forget any well known players.
It needs to be someone that right side of 30 as well.
-
Sits alongside Alan Stubbs 2-0 is a vulnerable lead.
Beckford, lambert, anya?
The first two I wouldn't touch with a barge pole anyway but all 3 would command wages way beyond what we could manage.
Where do people think this money is coming from? Dave King will invest but it's not going to be a case of here's 50m to blow on wages and transfer fees.
-
Too many people counting their chickens on here.
We need the same level of performance as with qots and hibs if we are to get through this. Professional, determined and full concentration for the 180 mins.
I believe we have improved enough as a team to get up but certainly not buying into this 3 or 4 goal win on Thursday.......hope I'm wrong though.
-
Motherwell are pish. We beat them in the 3rd div with a team miles poorer than our current squad, so I can't see them being a problem.
Lets face it, they are fucking Shite, plus our manager knows all of their players weaknesses.
So, mind when we all said we would boycott all the Spl teams who stabbed us in the neck (I include Kilmarnock)
Is there still a willingness to boycott these teams?
I haven't forgotten what they done to us, so I will NEVER step foot in any of their grounds.
Though I know some, if not most of you have let go of your grudges, is anyone else up for this?
At least for one season?
Crazy that people on here talking like we are through already. I'm not taking anything for granted with the playoffs.
As for boycotting I think we are far better gaining revenge by dominating Scottish football once again.

I still remember de boer giving a masterclass in ball control at tannadice where the pitch was like a minefield, think he scored a couple and assisted 2 . The guy was different class and his attitude and swagger made it all the more impressive, a true superstar player. Although I would have classed him as a midfielder more than an attacker. The fact he scored so many was because he was that much better than everyone around him.
That would be the highlights at 4.30! Just saw the title of the video and posted before watching it. Doubt we'll see class of that calibre again.

I'm on the fence here. On one hand McCall and Black have done so well for turning things around but I feel we are only now doing what most decent management teams do. It seems unfair if he leads us to promotion that he doesn't get at least another year.
The other half of me thinks that mccall may be enough to steady the ship but is he the man to take us forward and play an attractive style of football. Yes there have been improvements and perhaps with his own players things would be better still but I'm just not convinced.
It's an incredibly tough call for the board to make......just don't give it to billy davies or terry butcher.
-
Rangers: Bell; Foster, McGregor, McCulloch, Zaliukas, Wallace; Vuckic, Murdoch, Shiels, Law; Miller.
Subs: Simonsen, Mohsni, Smith, Black, Clark, Crawford, Boyd.
Positives are 3 centre backs with McCulloch and not 2.
Come on lets just get behind them, regardless of who is playing. He may well score today and put us through!
-
First 20 minutes is key.
Concede and our sofa is in peril as will be our promotion hopes.
0-0 after 20 mins? They will start to panic.
We score. Get the fucking beers and condoms out.
-
Could you imagine how long a day it will be if they beat us 1-0 after scoring in the first 10 MIBs
Wouldn't surprise me if that happens, we always seem to do things the hard way.
Would absolutely love a win to keep momentum and confidence going into Thursday, but I'll settle for just going through in whatever manner.
-
Less than 3 hours to go
Stomach is in knots
Feeling a wee bit better reading that McGregor is available.
Is this 100% the case?
Unless he got injured or pissed McCall off he will be playing.
Suspension starts from 31st May and Miller from 3rd June.

That'll be Souness that had no managerial experience...
I had meant the impact of souness not specifically someone who will be a player manager, have had no past experience.
I'm just saying that at the moment no names being mentioned either fill me with confidence or excite me.
Taking a punt on inexperience can be rewarding i.e. Souness or it can be damaging i.e. Mccoist, that's the gamble and I don't think we can afford a gamble however I don't think McCall is the man to start a revolution the way souness did.
-
I don't care what Warburton did before his current 18 month stint as a manager, he's a rookie and barely above Cathro in terms of experience. We need proven experience for the Rangers hot seat.
If McCall gets us up in the Premiership, he has proven he's good enough. I just hope he doesn't read these destabilising headlines.
Got to agree, he's had less than 100 games in management.
I think McCall has done well and it would be harsh if he got promotion then didn't get the job, but I personally don't think McCall is the right person to start a revolution at the club. We need an appointment reminiscent of souness. Who that would be? I honestly don't know.

Does he have one year left on his contract at Newcastle ? Ashley will want to cash him in to the highest bidder and will he want to sell him to Rangers...
Fairly certain he has a year left. It's certainly not up this summer....think streete is out of contract though if he can't get a game now he is fit I doubt we'd sign him.
Ashley won't care about who he sells him to, as long as he gets as much as he can get. Which rules us out I think.
Really want to see Newcastle relegated just because I can't stand Ashley, however if they get relegated they may well keep and play vuckic if other players leave.

Exactly, hopefully the players have their feet on the ground and are fully focussed on another professional performance. If that turns out to be a resounding win then hats off to them, but until this tie is out of sight I'm taking nothing for granted.
