johanhentze 14,313 Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 12 minutes ago, K.A.I said: Copenhagen is a nice city I fancy Stockholm never been there but would really like to tour the back towns way out the road the harbour towns and mountain villages etc Stockholm is a very nice city as well. The Danes and Swedes argue all the time about what city is the Capital of Scandinavia. I would say Copenhagen, but I might be biased. I would definitely recommend a Scandinavian road trup. Some great roads and scenery. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz52 11,837 Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 Was it not mentioned we were going to be playing in some tournament down England? Along with Liverpool and a few other teams? I'm sure I seen something about it, fuck knows, was probably a wind up or something Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz52 11,837 Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 RANGERS are set to play a glamour pre-season tournament against the likes of Liverpool and PSV Eindhoven…at the unlikely setting of English non-league side Nuneaton Town. Pedro Caixinha’s side are set for a return to European football for the first time in five years next season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think we'll get many fans in that wee ground either. Not the kinda trip we're after Another Sheff Wed, Derby or Blackpool will do just nicely Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz52 11,837 Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 There's videos put on YouTube from fans of the teams I mentioned above of Rangers fans singing, and they're calling us the best support they've ever seen/heard etc. Just pre-season friendlies as well amazing. Same with Portsmouth and Bristol City ones as well. And the Emirates Cup Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
With Heart and Hand 8,951 Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 Normally I'd say that I want a big name at Ibrox and a wee away trip down south. But all I care about now is that we have a proper pre season to get us ready for challenging, don't care if I've never heard of the teams or if games are played behind closed doors, the team getting a proper warm up for next season is more important to me than having a good swally at an away trip. We've wasted so many pre seasons recently and we can't afford to waste this one Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rosebery1872 78 Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 if we draw a side currently half way through their season(summer league) could be dodgy. New Pedro signings will need some time to get their head round the club they just signed for is the biggest their ever play against let alone play for and what is expected every game....so not thinking group stage tbh. 3rd q round min. for me but will be hard even at that level.

Only one in the south of Portugal is Olhanense who play in the second division. Olhano is near Faro airport but ground only holds 5,000. http://www.myfootygrounds.co.uk/CountryMap.asp?country=Portugal In July all of Portugal will be having good weather, and personally I prefer the north and the big cities Lisbon and Porto I posted recently in the off-topic about the football ground which (in my opinion) has the best views in football. Beleneses of Lisbon who are the third team of Lisbon. It is also a beautiful stadium in itself. I would love to go and watch us there. This is another view of the Beleneses stadium, in the background are the high flats of the old slum Benfica district, which has been transformed in to a modern office area. Benfica and Sportig Lisbon, who Pedro was a coach at, play within a few miles of each other there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly your right but thats what a real pro should be doing, they are more like spoilt bratts than pro footballers, remember players fromyears ago who never had the skills but had heart pride and determination like Alex Miller at us Ally Brazil at Hibs and Anton Rogan who all loved their jobs and workec and tried harder than others who had skill to remain footballers. This lot we have take a wage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
