First Signings


Recommended Posts

'Retweet if you think Vladimir Weiss should get on the first flight to Glasgow and join the Warburton revolution.'

That was what he retweeted mate.

So. He has the support of a large group of Rangers supporters who want him back. Had we sttempted to sign him after his loan he most likely would have been back.

To me it's a light hearted tweet from a Rangers fan who still likes Weiss. Novo was always talked about when he was well past his best because the supporters could relate to him.

No one thinks Weiss is coming back.

Weiss was not a bad player when he was with us , not a world beater just not a bad player, way better than what we have at the moment tho'. However anyone thinking he is coming back here and dropping to the wages that he would earn here is kidding themselves. These guys are professional and are looking to make the most money they can , nothing wrong with that. You might get an older player at the end of his career coming to a club that he really wants to play for and dropping the money but not a guy of Weiss age

:lol: he retweeted a tweet that encouraged RTs to get behind the idea of him coming back? Surely that would make some people think he was interested in doing just that? If he is and we make it happen, great.

I hope Weir came away from the Scottish cup final impressed with Sibbald & Vaulks.

I think they are both talented young players who could flourish under the type of coaching and system we are likely to see Warburton implement.

Sibbald's the boy who scored the winner against the HIVs eh?

I see we are apparently trying to sign Vuckic permanently!

According to the daily mail it is on News now

Wouldn't be my first choice. Rather someone with more pace.

If he's played more central though with quick players around him then it could be a big signing for us.

With Mark Warburton unveiled as Rangers manager and David Weir as his assistant, the pressure is now on them to build Rangers a team for promotion to the Scottish Premier League.

His natural first port of call would be back to Griffin Park. The question is whether or not he will raid the coffers of his old club?

It’s no secret (and please Rangers fans don’t take this as a disrespect) that any one of the Brentford starting 11 and most of the bench would make it into Glasgow Rangers’ starting 11 (my how times have changed). So it’s more of a case of who if any of our players would fancy the move North of the border.

Rumours are afoot that Warburton will be looking to sign Alfie Mawson. The Brentford academy player shone when sent on loan to Wycombe last season – earning their player of the season and being nominated for football league player of the year.

He surprisingly refused to sign a new contract with Brentford, as revealed exclusively on the Beesotted podcast in late April, and was expected to join Wycombe. However, with Warburton’s move to Rangers and the prospect of only having to pay compensation for the player (out of contract but developed by Brentford from youth), a move North of the border is highly likely.

Warburton is rumoured to have already pre-signed 4 or 5 players. Another Bees player who could be of interest to Benham is Northern Ireland international Stuart Dallas. He had an amazing season with Brentford scoring the goal of the season against Fulham and his future with The Bees looks very bright.

But with FFP looming, if Rangers were to come in with a proper offer of £2mill or so (and after the Rosler/Forshaw debacle we don’t believe Warburton would disrespect his former employer with a paltry offer) Brentford may find it hard to turn down.

Other players that Warburton might fancy? Jonathon Douglas would have been a prime target if Warburton ended up anywhere but Rangers.

Toumani Diagouraga has been a revelation at Griffin Park last season and Dijkhuizen picked him out as being a player he was impressed with. But if Rangers stump up the cash (apparently they have cash now), there could be a move up North for our man Toums.

All Rangers fans would love to see Lewis McCleod return to Ibrox. He has yet to pull on a Brentford shirt after an injury-plagued season at Griffin Park. But it is highly unlikely the Bees will let the young prospect go at this stage.

Tommy Smith is another possibility. Released by Brentford at the end of the season, don’t be surprised if ‘Uncle Tommy’ becomes the perfect addition to Warburton’s squad to get them out of the Scottish Championship.

According to the Daily Mail, Rangers will pursue a permanent deal for Newcastle forward Haris Vuckic - and the player wants a move back to Ibrox.

Rangers appointed Mark Warburton as their new manager on Monday, and with 11 players leaving the club at the end of their contracts this summer, Warburton must now bring in new players to improve his thin squad.

One player who Rangers are believed to be targeting is Slovenian Vuckic, who made a huge impression during a loan spell from Newcastle this past season.

The 22-year-old joined Rangers from Newcastle in January, and went on to score eight goals in 17 appearances, dazzling the Ibrox faithful with a string of excellent displays.

However, Vuckic is now back with Newcastle, and Rangers are reportedly keen to bring him back to Glasgow this summer on a permanent deal.

With just one year left on his contract at St. James' Park, Vuckic could well be available this summer - and the Daily Mail believe that Vuckic will hold a meeting with new Magpies boss Steve McClaren to discuss his future, with the player hoping to leave Newcastle and join Rangers on a full-time basis.

Bringing Vuckic back - a player who seemed too good for the Scottish Championship for much of his time in Scotland - would be a huge boost to Rangers supporters, who are eager to see the Warburton era begin; and signing Vuckic would be some way to kick it off.

Vuckic and Wilson would be a very good start to our signings.

I hope MacLeod comes back here. I'm sure Warbuton would like to bring him here also. Probably regrets moving him to Brentford at this point.
