Official confirmation from Rangers that Kai Kennedy has now signed a new deal until 2023 and will be loaned to Raith Rovers for the second half of the season.

Ross Wilson commenting that he had previously received "questionable advice" so he's not being subtle in his dig at the agent.

Just heard Slippy questioning whether Celtics trip gives them a sporting advantage.

Some neck, given Rangers previous opinions on what might constitute a sporting advantage.....

What sporting advantage do they get? Did Rangers apply for the same trip and were turned down? If not, ask Mr Gerrard to button it.

Not sure where you get the idea that it’s an attack on your team. You haven’t answered what sporting advantage Celtic get for their “ill advised” trip to Dubai. The only way that I could see that as being a sporting advantage would be if Rangers requested the same thing in November and were turned down.

I can't actually see any article where Gerrard claimed that it was a sporting advantage.

I actually think it might even be a disadvantage (pleasing) for the green grot as they’ll have to climatize when they get back since it’s now officially fucking Baltic!

No idea where the article is. I’m deflecting away from Celtic’s recent poor behaviour? Of course, that’ll be it.

I just watched the press conference and Gerrard isn't asked about Celtic's trip, nor does he comment on it, so I've no idea where the comment came from. @Bairnardo?

Possibly late to the party with this, but Rangers official Twitter account not advertising that fans in the UK could purchase St Mirrens stream for the game last week is so so so so so petty. Mentioned on here before that there was Rangers fans on Twitter demanding that no fan should pay for either the St Johnstone or St Mirren official stream and to watch it illegally either through a VPN with Rangers TV or on Hesgoal etc.
 

From fans that’s fair enough, can’t get too annoyed at that, the majority of Rangers fans don’t have a lot of money and come from the poorest and most impoverished parts of our society. Every day that a direct debit comes off their account is a struggle for them, and paying a Sky Sports subscription (or in most cases a NowTV pass, because as I said, they don’t have a lot of money), eats in to a large chunk of their income. That said, Rangers fans have had all but 2 away games shown live on TV. They would have had to fork out the grand sum of about 25 quid to watch both the St Johnstone and St Mirren game legally, and would have been able to watch the games from the comfort of their own living room, albeit in amongst an array of chippy wrappers and half eaten munchy boxes, because as I said, they don’t have a lot of money. 
 

Compare that to almost any other team, apart from Celtic obviously, who’s fans will have had to pay out well over £100 in some cases to watch all away games legally. I know in St Mirren and Dundee Uniteds case it’s closer to £150, possibly some other clubs are similar, but all much much higher than Rangers and Celtic. In my experience, there is a direct correlation between Scottish football fans who don’t support one of the old firm, and people who have a large amount of disposable income. This allows fans of non-OF teams to be able to purchase streams legally without having to worry about putting themselves in to a tough financial situation. So to have Rangers fans shouting about not giving money to other clubs for their streaming service when they are getting the majority of their away games shown on Sky is a bit galling, although not unexpected from a fan base with such a low level of education, and as I previously said, very little money. 
 

But to then have the OFFICIAL Rangers Twitter account dance along to their brain dead supporters tune, and show a level of pettiness that I actually didn’t think that club would sink to, was sad to see. I follow every Premiership team on Twitter, and Rangers and Celtic excepted, they all advertise the opposing teams stream. Just a small post telling their fans that they can legally watch the game using the home teams official stream, how much it is, the link to the web page etc. 
 

For a team that love to tell anyone who will listen about their class, traditions, professionalism, wearing suits on the team bus etc., whatever they want to call that, them (and Celtic, who don’t even bother to offer a stream to away fans) are the most classless, amoral clubs that will ever exist.

Eh?  We didn't become the biggest support in Scotland by leaving our munchy boxes half eaten...

I’ve actually been in the home end at Ibrox on more than one occasion. I took a Rangers supporting family member to the Champions League games the season Sevilla were in your group. I can genuinely say that being in amongst that level of poverty, witnessing it up close, was a humbling experience. I’ve got good friends that are Rangers season ticket holders, and after my experience at Ibrox I always ask them how they can be comfortable being associated with the sort of jakeballs that they sit amongst every week. I was only there for 3 games and I seen and heard enough that would make me think very hard about associating myself with that club and it’s support. It’s always said that it’s a ‘minority’ dragging down the good name of the Rangers fans, but in my experience it’s a minority of sensible fans who turn a blind eye to what they see and hear at ibrox every game.
