well done Neil Lennon! you have once again proved that you dont have a clue what you are doing. Playing Samaras was bad enough, however letting Rasmussen go out on loan is yet again another blunder! 3 goals in 4 games for sivaspor

I have always said he was a good striker who never got a chance due to marque signing of keane.

Could of saved money signing Bangura and signed a decent centre half with money.

Time for a new manager before season gets any worse

I think Rasmussen is a very good striker and the target man that Celtic are crying out for. Stokes is similar to Naismith, he's at his most dangerous when he's taking players on and can score from way out with a wee bit of magic, so playing him on the right side of midfield or just behind a striker and a target man upfront would be deadly imo.

Tony reading your posts earlier, particularly about "boring tax case" from Timalloy and Miko. I can recall a few posts where tim said that whyte needed money to keep going until january, and you and all the bears rubbished him. Well tonight on BBC it was stated that there were worries that Rangers might run out of money before end of year. Is that not what our bold Timalloy and Miko were saying.
Sometimes tony, the truth may be "boring" but it is still the truth. hail hail Neil T
PS heard only 20,000 tickets sold for tomorrow, whyte must be panicking as he counted on 50,000 as one bear posted with fox tv covering game making rangers £3m ha ha

Still sitting 10 points ahead of you not bad for a skint team. Makes your team look even worse.

Jambo

Maybe 10 points clear but the 1m question is will there be a rangers team next year ?

50 million in debt plus whatever else uses owe thr banks.

come on you bhoys in green

my god ED a fink rangers fans like our rumours and banter pages just aff their pages and nothing really gettin said there so ED a fink you are doin a great job coz it looks like the rangers ed is borin lol.stef1967. {Ed007's Note - The Rangers ed (014) only pops in when she can. She's a Rangers and Man City fan so you can imagine how we get on ;-) If she wasn't a wee stunner I would get her sacked!!!}

Any pics ed! {Ed007's Note - Not to share ;-)

17 Oct 2011 18:23:10
Alright Ed? You and the rest of the Celtic fans will be gutted that McFadden has signed for Everton. He would have been a great signing for your treatment table lol. That's another part of Whytes jigsaw in place with the resignation of Greig & McClelland. Rangers fans will never hear the true story due to Whyte having a written agreement with both of them not to speak about it which is a shame.
Followfollow81 {Ed007's Note - I honestly would love to hear what Greig has to say. I think Rangers fans could get a shock as well.}

17 Oct 2011 17:27:02
ref part of your post

ps the fact u dont want scottish football to progres in europe shows just how bitter towards celtic u really are ..... that aint healthy son..... will end up sending you to the doctors!

i never said i dont want scottish football to progress i said i dont want celtic to progress and if you are asking me am i bitter towards celtic Well YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT.

thats like asking Miko,Tim,etc are they bitter against rangers

ask any celtic fan for the sake of scottish football do they want Rangers to win the taxcase

dont be surprised if you get a negative answer

Miko,Ed do you want rangers to win the tax case

Tony {Ed007's Note - What do you think??? Of course I don't mate, as a CFC fan I want to see Rangers gubbed, my dad would spin in his grave if I didn't. Although I do think Scottish football needs a shot in the arm and about the co-efficiency etc, but when push comes to shove we are still rivals and it is good to gloat over each other when we can.}

Just as i thought Ed

is there any other Celtic fan that would like rangers to win the taxcase for the sake of scottish football please come forward. i think you will find you are in the minority here Germinator how many celtic fans hoped we beat Maribor or Malmo for the sake of scottish football

Tony {Ed007's Note - No point of me lying and pretending to sit on the fence mate.}

Tony, I absolutely want Rangers to lose the tax case and Celtic to do well for the sake of Scottish football. Rangers have been winning leagues with players they couldn't afford.....it's called cheating. I wouldn't want them to go bust, however you lot were laughing at us in the early 90's when we were on the cusp of bankruptcy. Then there was the broken crest in the Daily Ranger, etc. Bad times during which Fergus McCann had to rebuild the club, allowing Rangers to complete 9IAR. I'm with Ed on this one, defo! What goes around comes around, happy days!.....Miko

Clown boy, show me werei said that celtic fans would want us to do well ? show me were i said I want Celtic to do well.?
Did I say celtic fans wanted us to do well in europe course i didnt i cant speak for them. I wantd celtic to beat Sion and qualify, im still glad that they are in the groups ..... lol you dont want scottish teams to do well in europe .... remind me were celtic are from ya spud?! did i say i want celtic to be succesful naw, did i say i want them to win the europa naw? tax case ?! i never even mentioned this, u just spouted out a paragrapgh of gash talk and tried to insinuate thats what i meant .... in reality i shouldnt have expected to know what i meant...... funny that wouldnt be like.

Germinator

17 Oct 2011 16:07:52
right tony son, u asked for this ..... if i thik you post dross im entitled to say so, i reckon if i done a poll on here im prettys sure if i asked who has time for Tony we all know the results ... as far as sucking up .... u do realise that i was having a go at Neil T's post ya eidjit ! honestly ?!
further on that note the eds (well ed07) has had two posts directed at him for stuff on this site i dont like or agree with but are not posts to be aput up on here.

If you wanna have a go then fair do's prepare to be humiliated tho.

ps the fact u dont want scottish football to progres in europe shows just how bitter towards celtic u really are ..... that aint healthy son..... will end up sending you to the doctors!

Germinator {Ed007's Note - My apologises Germ. I certainly never intended to offend you or anyone else.]

Its kl ed as i said in the post it was obv said in the heat of an arguement etc.... apology accepted.

Germinator {Ed007's Note - Thanks.}

.....and they all lived happily ever after! lol....Miko {Ed007's Note - Eff off you ;-)

Germinator on a different subject (forget tony) what do you as a rangers fan make of John Greig resigning? My take is Whyte is filling board with his "yes" men all the old guard who warned you bears about Whyte are now gone, are you worried which way whyte is taking your club, I can see these two issuing writs next ha ha, but seriously I see there is a tv programme on thursday that whyte tried to stop again via the courts, Whyte should just buy a flat next to the high court as he is there more than at Ibrox.By the way good to see at last journalists questioning whyte the previous attempts by messrs Young, Traynor, Keevins etc amounted to calling the Ibrox Press Office for a quote great journalism boys. Neil T

Says Miko the hooped Tony !

Are you suggesting we are one and the same?.....Miko {Ed007's Note - NNNNOOOOOO!!!!. I think I'm going to cry.}

To be honest i dont know ... all i can do is hazrd a guess. i reckon the move with John Greig was always on the cards, to get rid of him straight away would ahve made the fans feel a lot more uneasy. Id say he is doing things his way and he (Whyte) is defo not a yes man or do what others have done. I can only say what i see ... i see someone doing things very much the way he wants to do it .. he seems quite ruthless and willing to do things that are not the most popular.... whether this is for the benefit for himself the club or both i have no idea? it could be argued did Gers need John Greig on the books or can Gers afford to let someone so close to the club go?

the club is moving on .... we all hear that the club was a ran shoddily before now therefore to get it running properly would require major steps.

Again i can only speculate... Am i happy ? only time will tell, but life goes on and regardless what happens now come ten/twenty year down the line there will be some other crisis/drama/excitement ...... its the old firm ..... never a dull season goes by.

Germinator {Ed007's Note - I said all along that I thought it strange Greig spoke out against the take over. To me there are 3/4 people alive today that are 100% true Rangers men, WS, McCoist and Greig (maybe Durrant but I feel he is only there through compassion). I have met the three of them on a few occasions and have nothing but respect for them as men. I think something has went on behind the scenes that nobody knows, I did hear a while back that Martin Bain was going to call Greig as a witness.}

Na not at all just saying that for every tony there is a Miko :oP {Ed007's Note - Like Ying and Yang. Miko should watch out though, Tim might get jealous if he is trying to cut his grass ;-)

Ha ha quite appropriate if you merge Miko and tony together you get "Mony"
which is all moany tony does on these pages Neil T

I have that effect on people, lol.....Miko

I'd have thought that Whyte would have got Greig onside ASAP. I understand the rest of the departures, however the whole situation with Greig is a strange one. Even though Greig denounced Whyte's takeover, I think tactically, it would have been a masterstroke for Whyte to reel him in......Miko {Ed007's Note - He isn't the 'Greatest Ranger Ever' for nothing.}

Correct Ed!....Miko

17 Oct 2011 15:20:28
What do you think of John Sutton and Jamie Murphy coming to parkhead? I think the two of them together would be great for us.
thoughts?

Paul

Personally, I don't think Sutton's good enough for us, although I know of others that share your point of view. Murphy, I dunno??......Miko

17 Oct 2011 14:09:21
Ref: these riots would have happened no m atter what fans were involved including Celtic fans......
Before my illness I ran a supporters bus home and away and also went to european away games. In my experience I found the vast majority of Celtic fans friendly towards opposing fans, even in defeat. We only have to go back to Seville, 200,000 fans, we got beaten but not one bit of trouble. In Seville too the organisation in some parts of the town was poor because of the sheer number of celtic fans but we all accepted it with a smile on our faces.
Contrast that with all the thugs(and I use the word carefully) in manchester, and for tony and others to defend them, beggars belief.
Tony is quick to accuse Celtic fans whenever he can but to gloss over the thousands of rangers hooligans in manchester is a disgrace and Tony you should be ashamed of yourself. It was not "english" fans it was thousands of hooligan Rangers fans rioting, acknowledge it. sorry rant over but Tony is a hypocrite. Neil T

Neil i aint defending Tony one iota as he talks as much drivel on these sites as the next man however you have totally missed the point in the post. The trouble did not occur cos of the result (the trouble started during the game) the trouble started because the screens stopped showing the crowd the build up to the game and just turned off ..... when gers fans tried to leave (there was cages around the viewing area) police refused to let them out ..... not a single one so thousands of fans were trapped inside a caged sqaure just before the game and were being told that they were not being allowed out to watch the game under any circumstances .........

Now you have a group of scots/brits infact anywer have them drinking all day in the build up to the biggest sporting night in a lot of their lives,only to tell them 5 mins afore kickoff that they are not getting to watch it and are not being let out and will be "improsined for the forsee-able time (they werent told how long they had to be there for. how would you think this wold unfold regardless of who's fans they were .....

Germinator

Neil t

i did not defend the fools that caused trouble and if you can read you will see i admitted that it was rangers fans as well as non rangers fans that caused trouble and im sick to the back teeth of people like you not reading the posts properly read the damn post properly before commenting. and as for you Germinator you may think i talk dross but at least i dont come on here and kiss ass like you with crap like i wish you luck in Europe boys for the sake of co-efficiency you must be the only ger on the planet that wishes celtic luck i wish them luck all bad of course but everybody on here who knows me knows that i dont just tell people what they want to here.

rant over

Tony

Your spot on the result did not cause the riot after all you won in barca,dont remember any riots in lisbon ,milan or seville or maybe the pro celtic media covered them up..........lol.fab1

Absoulte tosh! My Rangers supporting friends were in Manchester for the game and promptly left early because they said there was an insidious atmosphere beforehand.

You're making excuses, they were not told they were not going to see the game because technicians were frantically trying to resolve the issue, whilst being pelted with bottles from the Shame! This is fact!

Rangers fans are notoriously bad, hence "Scotlands Shame!"

Miko

Miko what about the 26 Celtic fans arrested in blackburn on route to Seville dont they count

Nope, we're on about Rangers supporters rioting in Manchester for all to see as it made the National News, ffs. Surely there can be no comparison, what were the 26 fans en route to Seville arrested for?........Miko

Is that the same blackburn game where a rangers fan wearing a rangers top ,ran from the home end and tried to incite the celtic fans,oh dont tell me he wasnt really a rangers fan either,how come when you say 200thousand fans went to manchester you count the hangers on but not when they cause trouble? fab1

Yes and i remember the riot in blackburn and it was started by 3 English yobs with rangers shirts on tossing bottles at the celtic fans standing outside the mcdonalds . those celtic fans responded and the 3 gers fans ran into a crowd of police officers and things started up from there.

ref

So John Greig put you lot in that position ok bury your head like i said you would do. He is rangers through and through and has been pushed out by Whyte

if you look at my post you will see i said he was part of the board and dont give me all this pi5h about him being rangers through and through if you want to cast your mind back to last season ie we are all Neil Lennon, candle light vigils, in Neil Lennon we trust the guys Celtic through and through and yet 99% of the posters on here were calling for his head on saturday because you hadnt won i three games and would have paid his taxi fare as long as it was one way if you bought a business and it was failing would you want to keep any of the people that where involved in the decision making while the business was failing

Tony

I have never stated that Lennon was the man for the job from day 1 and it looks like i am being proved correct. However we have had it all from you lot about John Greig being Mr Rangers and now he has packed in he is partially to blame for the state of your club. Take your head out of the sand and have a proper look at your club whyte is the devil in disguise.

You're going down Tony, everything's ticking along just nicely, the sequence of events over the last year should be telling you a story, however you're in denial!.....Miko

17 Oct 2011 11:14:44
What is going on at Ibroke 2 more directors leaving 1 of them being Mr Rangers himself a Mr John Greig. Strange goings on indeed. How many will bury their heads in the sand on this one.

How many Celtic directors left or got the chop when fergus took over

people forget these guys regardless of who they where helped put the club in the state it is in

Tony

How many Celtic directors left or got the chop when fergus took over

differance is we wanted them to go

David

So John Greig put you lot in that position ok bury your head like i said you would do. He is rangers through and through and has been pushed out by Whyte.

No difference m8 in every business new broom clean sweep especially if members of the current board tried to sabotage your bid for control

i dont pretend to know what goes on at ibrox or if whyte is the whyte night or the black death but im not surprised that board members are leaving or being pushed.

as for fergus take a look at the archive news papers and you will see Celtic fans and the board were against his take over and he proved you all wrong i just hope whyte does the same.

Tony

A Europa League game on Thursday. Away from home. So that's another defeat on the cards and the usual hassle of going away too. Just the motivational trip we need. Europa Leagus doesn't look so appealing anymore.....just as I predicted when this court case thing started. We have more urgent business to take care of much closer to home.

ChrisBhoy

Surley it should be a releif that we will probably lose to a team that are in someways relativley decent, compared to the likes of Kilmarnock, St Johnstone etc lol

a welcome distraction in my eyes, as we are no longer expecting anything from this team anymore, maybe now that has been removed from them as they have been utterly rubbish, they may play a bit better ....


Maybe lol

Evinguu

The tables have turned I see. How can you not expect anything from a team which boasts a £35m striker, a £15m midfielder and a £10m midfielder??

Just 9/10 months ago we were hearing how your Kayals and Hoopers etc etc could walk into any team in the EPL and in Europe.

How the sudden change of tone Timothy? Has reality finally kicked in LMAO?

Oh how witty. Where have i personally said that we have 35mil strikers?? where have a majority of Celtic fans said this. There are the minority of idiots who cannot see through their green tinted spectacles and will make rash and stupid statements/ claims like that granted, but us realists generally know better.

that said on his day kayal especially could play quite comfortably in the EPL, but not at the moment, he is a shadow of himself, as is most of the team.

I expected more from this team than we are getting, that is why i am no longer going to expect too much(have felt this way for a while), cant be disappointed that way as we never have been world beaters. Altho some others would like us to believe otherwise.

So dear bear on the attempted windup, if you can point out where a realistic fan has changed their tone, i will take your point with some sort of merit. But if you are saying that to the fans whom think we truly have a world class team across the park then i agree they need a wake up call too and reality has finally kicked in. The signs have been here for quite a while!

Evinguu

Evingu,

Trust me, I am a member of many football forums and one forum inparticular that I post quite frequently on is the Daily Record. Now, there are many Celtic fans who post on this forum, more so than Rangers fans, and believe me bud these posters actually believed they a team full of world-class players.

You may not have stated they were world-class but there was an awful lot of Timothys out there who did.

My attempt of a wind-up obviously worked a treat as you couldn't resist biting back.

The fact is though, there are players in that Celtic team who are NOT as good as the Celtic support think. Kayal, Izzagure, Hooper and Ki are all average at best players. None of whom would cope in the EPL.

Basing this on the majority of the daily record forum, , oh what a massive bunch of knuckledraggers on there does cheer my lunchtime up to read a few pages tho. So granted i give you a majority on there will say things like that, But these guys barley know left from right never rmind a decent football player. We are dealing with mostly cretinous morons on that site who i personally would not trust to judge wether it was safe to cross a road, and once again they are a minority of the overall support that pass opinion on team matters.

Who knows maybe these minoritys add up and i am wrong! see happy to admit that lol

If these people were able to make a ssalient and coherant point they could have put that stuff better, for example it was in refrence to the time of Andy Carrols transfer for 35 mil. Saying well if he is worth that much how much is someone who has scored more goals at a poorer team over the same season worth wheres the equilibrium? and yes there are other factors i know around transfers and i know all round carrol is prob the better player ( well on the most part i dont like him as a player) but this post is turning into one of my mammoth ones that i cant be ersed going into all other factors in a players valuation.

I will not argue with you on some of your points tho, esp the players. none have shown consistantly what they can do or prove they can go up a level. Although on their day these players can play at that level,but overall they wouldnt cope.

However in what way is biting applicable to a response that was clearly worded as a response to my own post, and one where you asked questions! which i answered. yes you were trying to wind up and annoy, but surley a bite is getting an angry or downright defiant answer. i did agree with some of your points did i not? maybe my fishing book is out of date.

Maybe im missing something here. Surley when on a forum when someone asks a question its generally polite to offer your own opinion or answer to that question if it relates to something you have posted yourself?

Evinguu

17 Oct 2011 02:40:24
i wud jst like to ask neil lennon why on earth he loaned out efrain juarez the looke decent wen he played,he can play full back and right across the middle and at the moment hes doin great for zaragoza and mexico so WHY WHY WHY loan him out!!! what do u reckion ed? {Ed007's Note - He wasn't settled here.}

17 Oct 2011 03:29:54
what a load of bal***ks it was casual english fan's who caused the manchester riots. And if it was it makes no difference as they would have been english rangers fans . Rangers claimed over 150000 fans travelled to manchester but then the riots took place and they changed there opinion then stated that thousands of fans travelled and bought rangers tops and they where not really rangers fans and that was the one's who where fighting with the police . I for 1 personally know 6 people arrested for the riots and they are from glasgow.

Go to you tube put in rangers manchester riots and you'll see thousands of rangers fans smashing the place . don't try blaiming it on everyone else .

Rangers scotlands shame

I was at Manchester and believe me their were rangers fans involved in the riots but there were also Chelsea fans there with rangers tops on they were easily spotted as they had the skull and cross bones on their right sleeves i am in no doubt there where other fans from other clubs just there to take part in trouble but as i said before some rangers fans where very much involved and as for your comment on search youtube well m8 if you search youtube you can find Rangers,Celtic,Man utd,Liverpool and about any other team you want to mention fans causing trouble.

just because someone buys a top and throws it on for the day dont make them fans. ask yourself this if you were content in causing trouble at football match would you try and blend in by wearing the same as the vast majority of fans or would you wear something that would make you stick out

Tony

Tony

Ahh Tony, that explains it, you only 'support ' rangers so you dont stick out in the crowds.

Always knew you were a tim lol

Evinguu

I was also in Manchester. Whether they were wearing Chelsea tops, the chances are they were still supporting Rangers.

The major problem was the entire set-up in Picadilly Gardens, there is no way on this earth there was a technical fault with the screen! I find it a coincidence that the screen worked fine ALL day long, only for it to cut-off exactly 5 minutes before kick-off?

Then you have the heavy handed police who literally refused Rangers fan's their exits from Picadilly to the other fanzones thus resulting in desperate Gers fans scaling the outer wall of the garden thus resulting in the police taking action.

I'm not condoning the actions of the idiots who beat-up the lone officer etc but after what happened with the screen these riots were inevitable. These riots would have happened no matter which support was there and yes, that goes for Celtic fans also........

Don't comment on what you don't know Timothy..........

16 Oct 2011 22:33:25
Just watched the highlights again from yesterday..if wee James Forrest keeps this up, Young Player Of The Year surely. The way the more 'senior' players in the team are letting us down while Forrest plays his heart out is shameful...what's going on with Kayal is anyone's guess & how he thinks a Premiership or Championship club with pay a few million for this kind of behaviour, he must be (or his agent) deluded ! - Chrissy
