Ok, enough is enough. As much as I dislike Rangers it is time they got back into the SPL for the sake of Scottish football. I hope they and Hibs get promotion.

Do you have a spot on Radio Clyde?

You a Celtic fan by any chance?

I don't know any Killie fan who wants them back.

After the worst season in our history and a quite humiliating defeat to a team that is no better than average, 2014/2015 will definitely be a season to forget. With reports emerging that Mark Warburton is nailed on to get the job next year, with Davie Weir as assistant, I really hope he gets it. Down to as low as 1/2 at the bookies to take the gig. He done really well at Brentford and I am confident he would be the man to take us forward next year.

In other news we have started to release some of the deadwood with Daly announcing his departure and McCulloch, Boyd, Black, Mohsni, Smith, Hutton, Foster, Simonsen, Robinson and Faure all out of contract. To that list I would add Bell, Law and Templeton to be shown the door.

I hope I can look back at this thread this time next year having seen a significant improvement to our playing and management squad and having gained promotion.

Here's to a positive 2015/2016 season bears :headbang:

Disagree on Bell, he's a good keeper that just happened to have a howler on Sunday, every keeper has made massive mistakes at least once in their career. The rest fully agree you lot should get rid of - but I hope you don't and bring back McDowall as manager. ;)

I don't want any big name signings.. I want a coach who can mould a team together from our youths and also a number of players who are available at manageable wage levels. I'll settle for another season in the Championship if that mean we had a plan in place.

the voice of reason.......................

Have you watched him all season? His boots are glued to the goal line.

I read the first few pages of the attached Rangers forum link. Some of the signing targets mentioned are actually quite thoughtful. Ryan Fraser not so much - he will be on 20k a week next season with Bournemouth. I think Rangers also need to avoid signing expensive, coming to pasture, type players.

In the next 10 days Rangers will outline a programme of reform that will include season ticket packages for another season in the championship and, I they get their man this week, the presentation of a new boss.

I find comments like this bizarre in the extreme.

Agree no one needs or wants them.

Do you have a spot on Radio Clyde?

Guys on Clyde were doing my head in with the "Scottish football needs them in the top league" load if pish

What Scottish Football needs is the 12 best teams in the top league of 12.

Rangers aren't one of them. Motherwell were 11th best team in Scotland and they destroyed Rangers. When Rangers earn promotion, i'll welcome them in to the Premiership. And i'll enjoy the 9 points we'll take off them in their 1st season ;)

Good honest and truthful statement from you sir.

Unlike the 'look at me, I hate Rangers more than you' brigade.

Latest from VB...Tears and snotters everywhere!! Glorious stuff.

Wakening up today my first thought was, did I over react yesterday? The answer was simple, ‘No’

What happened yesterday in my opinion was the worst result ever in our 143 years.

Why do I say that? Simply put, we will now struggle to survive. This isn’t an overreaction, this is fact.

A new sugar daddy is required, but, not on the playing side, we need the money for the running and upkeep of our club. Ibrox is a mess, it was once the finest stadium in Europe, it’s now weary and battle scarred from years of neglect and non-existent TLC. Ibrox needs more than just a lick of paint, she needs a complete overhaul. Not just the bricks and mortar, not just the decor, I mean she needs cleansed from top to bottom.

This includes our whole way of thinking, we need PR who understands our traditions; we need coaches who will actually take us forward; we need directors who know how to run a successful business. In other words, we need a business plan and a vision.

That is more important than anything else right now, results are secondary at this minute.
If we don’t have a plan and a vision then we are going to become another Leeds United. In other words we will become ordinary.

Rangers are massive, we have traditions and history that no club in the world can rival. Domestically we are the most successful club on the planet.

We will never be a force in Europe, that’s not our aim at this time, I’d happily settle for the last 16 in Europe on a regular basis, but right now that is as likely as the Bheasts being held accountable for their abuse of kids.

I no longer care about this camp or that camp. Dave King disgraced himself yesterday by not being at the biggest game in our history, bigger than Barcelona ’72? Bigger than Tannadice in ’97? Bigger than Manchester ’08? Yip, this game was all about survival and our Chairman was nowhere to be seen.

In the build up to his takeover I read his stories and listened to his interviews on a daily basis, what is he saying now? His silence is deafening. I want a leader who will take my club forward. I want a leader who has the vision and know-how to take Rangers back to where we belong. Mr King please tell me your plan, show me where we are going, make me believe in you? I’ll buy into your plan if it takes us back up. I don’t care if it takes one year or five years, just let me in on it.

Tell me we are moving forward by capping our wage system to live well within our means, tell me youth will be given a chance. If you don’t have the plan or vision, then please leave now and allow someone else to take us forward.

As a supporter I’m sick hearing how we are again going to be asked to fund this so-called vision we know nothing about. You’re the man with cash, put up, let’s see you working, then we may buy into it.

Don’t expect us to buy into something again without a proper plan. Most of us are working class guys who have put every spare penny into Rangers over the years. I’ve put my Rangers before my family over the years and there will be thousands like me.

Well I’m sorry, I’m not doing it again unless you show me your vision and plan, not only show me it, I want to see you implement it before I buy into anything else.

Your absence yesterday angered me - it showed a lack of respect. I wasn’t there as I couldn’t get a ticket, but I’ve been everywhere else and I am hurting like I’ve lost a family friend. Rangers isn’t a hobby, it’s a way of life to most of us. Stop treating us as a wee play thing and get your arse over here and sort it out, or be man enough to walk away.

I should have read by now that Ally McCoist has severed all ties with the club and walked with no compensation.

I should have read his name was removed from the hall of fame for putting his ego before our club by playing over paid over rated players Instead of mixing experience with the kids whilst we worked our way back

I should’ve read that McCall has left and I would’ve thanked him for his efforts and wished him all the best for his future.

I should have read all coaches are gone.

I should’ve read that all players except McGregor, Walsh, Murdoch and some of the kids have all been sacked for failure to do the job they were employed to do.

I should be reading that you are embarrassed by what’s went on over these past 4 years and that you will bring stability and security to Rangers.

I should be reading you’ve sought out a new manager and a new coaching set up.

Normally I say I don’t want former players back within our club, but right now I’m prepared to listen to all options. I’ve listened to Davie Weir, I've listened to Neil McCann, I like what I hear and I like what I see from them. They won’t make managers at this time but I’d like their input, hence not completely ruling out former players.

I want someone who can bring on youth, someone who isn’t afraid to play youth and someone who has a long term plan. I’ll accept being in this division for a couple of seasons If It’s for our long term benefit, but the plan has to start today.

Sorry for the rant but I’m hurting more today than I was yesterday.

Absolutely brilliant. Wiping away his tears with a sash and a picture of the Queen.

Not one mention of the blue pound, I was utterly shocked.

When he goes on about "traditions" (and in other articles "our culture"), he means singing sectarian songs, not signing Catholics, Union Jack waving triumphalism and bigotry I presume?

To be fair to most Rangers fans, and all the current Rangers posters on here, I don't think that group are particularly representative of anything but the lunatic fringe.

We probably need a bigger league but working with what we have got then you are on the money. Killie still wouldn't take points off them though :(
