Interesting comments from Clement and it adds further scrutiny to the board mentioning he was given different expectations when he first arrived. A series of failings on their part has led us to the situation where we seem to have a competent manager in comparison to Beale, but he is likely only going to receive a fraction of the backing that Beale did in the transfer market. Clement mentioned that the squad required a rebuild, and yesterday our starting line up for a friendly consisted of 10 players that were here last season. I reckon that Tav and Cantwell will be on their way having not featured in pre-season, but any money we get for them isn’t going to be enough to fund the overhaul this squad needs. It’s all well and good saying we need to be patient, but I think the fan base can see that Clement is being let down badly by the board. When you consider we had two record player sales, reached a European final and recorded our highest ever turnover within the last 2/3 years, it’s a massive failing to find ourselves in this situation and Clement is the fall guy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennett Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 Our main problem is at boardroom level, they're well meaning and have put in plenty of their own money but they are completely out of their depth in a footballing environment. It's been one screw up after another, the mess that they've made of the Copland takes incompetence to a whole new level. Rather than drip feeding propaganda to Keith Jackson, Bennett needs to level with the support, no matter how bad things are. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would be good about that is the fact that the Rangers support are renowned for a thoughtful and balanced appreciation of issues at hand, and would take a period of resetting or regression with their famous good grace and humility. 25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers want to maximise sales, they reprise the orange shirt. Or should they have picked another colour to protect the permanently faux offended? I’m fairly sure that lilac effort of a couple of years back was a particularly poor seller. I have no idea of Hearts 2nd/3rd kits. Are there specific reasons for their colours, or have they been chosen because one can cut a dash (as much as one can anyway) about Gorgie every second weekend? Aye… They’re selling well because of your historical links with Dutch players… That’s definitely why… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd prefer it if they did their resetting in the west of Scotland leagues for a few years. That would be fun. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightswoodBear Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 We've had Boab winning the Scottish open, the Euros cheering us all up last night and The Open at Troon to look forward to this week. Then it's back to Rangers just fucking up my mood constantly. Can't wait for Goldson, Tav, Dessers and Scott Wright all lining up at Tynecastle for the opening game of the season. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennett Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 RANGERS confirm agreement has been finalised with both the Scottish FA and SPFL for the use of Hampden Park for the club’s home fixtures in the early part of the 2024/25 season. Further to last week’s update, the club is continuing work at pace on detailed plans for the transition to the National Stadium. While the Ask Rangers site seeks to address immediate questions, further information will be delivered to our season ticket holders and seasonal hospitality clients as we progress the situation. At this stage, the club can announce our William Hill Scottish Premiership matches with Motherwell on Saturday, 10 August and Ross County on Saturday 24 August will be played at Hampden, with both matches kicking-off at 3pm. With draws still to be made for the UEFA Champions League third qualifying round and potential play-off round, plus a potential home tie in the Premier Sports Cup, the club will communicate news on dates and kick-off times for them once the information is confirmed. The club is continuing to work tirelessly on the Copland Stand project at Ibrox to complete that as soon as possible. As soon as the club can provide a definitive update on matches returning to our home, it will do so. Rangers again puts on record its thanks to the Scottish FA and the SPFL for their considerable work in reaching this solution. Above all, the club thanks our supporters for their ongoing patience and understanding as we deal with this challenge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennett Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 The Scottish FA and SPFL have today approved Rangers FC’s request to host the club’s home matches at Hampden Park, due to ongoing works at Ibrox Stadium. The arrangement includes the club’s home matches up to Scotland’s UEFA Nations League fixture at home to Poland on September 5 and the SPFL Board has approved Rangers playing such matches away from their own Registered Ground. As part of the agreement, Rangers have committed to fund an accelerated pitch growth programme to ensure the Hampden surface is ready for the club’s first home game. The SPFL have confirmed that due to the Rangers v Motherwell match in the William Hill Premiership now taking place at Hampden Park on Saturday 10 August, it has been agreed with Queen’s Park that their match against Livingston in the William Hill Championship, to be played at the City Stadium, has been moved to Friday 9 August. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
