    With all the new players brought in, who all do you see leaving?

    I think if Rangers don't win the SPL,
    you will see a mass exodus at the end of the season.

    With the mass purchase of CMs I guess a ew of them would leave?

    Or do you think Edu will play as a CB?

    Rangers were weak in the middle, I think they signed CMs because they needed some.

    With them bringing in Edu, Mendes, Davis, and Bougherra (who is also, like Edu, able to play in Defense or Midfield) I see Hemdani, (already rumored to have been released on a free) and Adam for the off. Adam has had spits and starts of playing okay, but largely he is ineffective, slow, shows little touch for his cannon of a shot. His delivery while running is shocking at best.

    Gow has to be off eventually, as would be Cousin and Darcheville.
    Burke has got to be sold eventually, he would be a hit in the Championship I think, but largely ineffective and always hurt up north.

    Dailly and Weir will be done at years end. surely.

    Baz will be back, so I also see McCullouch gone at season close.

    Strikers/Forwards: Novo, Mhiller, Velicka, Lafferty,
    Wingers: Beasely, Niguez,
    Central Midfielders: Davis(can also play wide on right), Mendes, Edu, Thomson, Baz,
    Full Backs: Whittaker, Papac, Smith (if ever fit)
    Centre Halves: Bougherra, Weir, Dailly, Bigfoot

    It is nice to have depth, but so many Gers are made of glass and are always hurt (Burke, Beasely, Smith, Baz,

    Well I could have told you Beasely was made
    of glass (i love him at the Fire), also
    the SPL isn't exactly a wussy, stroll
    through the park.

    I've heard the same rumour myself. Mind you most rumours you hear in Glasgow are a lot of p1sh.

    He has taken the shots and played through injuries that required surgery, I too have heard the rumours that he may be done, retiring...

    I hope not.

    congrats to Rangers.

    didn't think there was much in it at HT but Mendes ran the show in the second half while we had some individual errors.

    New video on Youtube with definite old firm timing.

    http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=IGX3hNj6eY4

    It appears to be an anti-fake advert, don;t know if it's real or a spoof

    the slogan is.

    Better actors and it would have been semi amusing.

    Queiroz must have scouts all over the place cus Mendes was called even before the game vs Celtic.
    I truly believe he's a underrated player. Nice to see him worshipped...for now :p

    But he only showed up for the big games, took stupid cards and has been the most sent off play for Rangers since he has been here.

    Cheerio!

    I'm shocked, but maybe
    Novo and Boyd may be
    all that Smith wants?
    Anyone in the youth academy
    on the rise?
