Hi Paddyboy

I think like yourself, in the main the signings have been good. Also good to see Lennon giving Forrest a chance and getting the best out of McCourt. Wilson's also taken his chance well and Lennon is developing Ki into a good player. Has to be said that Sammy has played well in the two games at Ibrox, so hopefully Lennon can get more out of him also. Agree with you about Murphy and I have to say that I always feel on edge when Majstorovic has the ball at the back. Pleasantly surprised with Mulgrew as a temporary centre half although not the answer for next season. Great progress.

I think lenny has made some really good signings, they are mostly young and haven't cost much, izzy, kayal, hooper, stokes, forster, commons, ledley, saurez, murphy is red rotten but of the above the favourite for me has been kayal. We have been desperate for a hard tackling midfielder for ages, and since this lad came back from injury the team have really improved. I think the difference in scott brown has a lot to do with kayal being in the team, for the first time in four years brown is doing the job we bought him for. Kayal has a lot to learn, but his play reminds me of paul mcstay, what do the rest of the bhoys on here think of our signings, good or bad?

""Thoughts - your talking pish."

Am I? During WWII the league was still in operation. Rangers won the titles during the war years but, alas, the achievment was not officially recognised.

Talking pish, huh. .

DT"

Yes you are correct, you are talking pish. As you say, no league competition during the war was recognised. I'd say it was a safe bet that they don't appear on Ranger's record of trophies on their website, in their match programmes or anywhere else for that matter.

So grow up and stop embarrassing yourself and other Rangers supporters. If you walked into a Rangers Supporters Club and came out with that pish, you'd very quickly be told to shut up.

"Has anyone else noticed that The Rangers have actually won 9-in-a-row twice?

Thoughts?

DT"

Thoughts - your talking pish.

Have to agree with the people calling for a bit of a ceasefire with regards some of the statements and comments on both Old Firm pages. Some of the stuff is way over the top even although, like the tax man admitted, i have also been guilty of reacting to certain comments in a less than complimentary manner. At the end of the day, as i have stated on here before, both sides have plenty of dirt and its not really good to wash our dirty linen in public, especially when our friends down south seem to take great pleasure laughing at our rivalry. Why can't we all just get along ha ha!

Ed- I personally wasn't for the introduction of log ons for this site but the hatred that has been displayed on it since Sunday is changing my mind, there have been decent rangers fans on and decent Celtic fans too (sickbhoy) for example but the rest of it is ruining the site for me, I would rather see banter than hatred, and real rumours than BS, though I have to admit to posting some BS in the past ironic or not! I would appeal to all people on here that if you don't have anything nice to say to each other don't communicate with each other, don't rise to the bait and be happy instead of winding yourselves up trying to get one over on each other. Celtic are my life but at the end if the day it is a game of football and all the hatred is no longer welcome.

Most people see through the BS, what annoys me is they don't sign it. BS with a name to it could be banter, as it can be replied to, BS with no name is just BS and if we ignore them, they will soon get bored and go back to their sectarian bile fuelled sites.

Re the capt of celtic
it looks like that clown diouf picked on the wrong guy.
while diouf was running around giving it loads of money, brown showed him how to score a great goal.
aye that's some hardman diouf is by the way. brown gives him some banter back and it's boohoo and away crying to the press. diouf running scared of big bad brown ha ha ha

Just heard from my mate in work who is a Rangers fan. Ally McCoist has been approached by Sky to take over Andy Greys old job. Sky have offered McCoist double the salary to what Rangers have offered once Walter leaves. Bring It on! Who would want to manage those muppets.

"Hail Hail"
The Jungle Bhoys

I would agree with you there but Billy Davies wants the job and thought that he would have a chance if he prevented the K. Wilson deal going through, also Nottingham Forest are sick of the man. .

The interested forest fan. .

Personally I don't think anyone can guess who the manager will be until/ if the take over happens. Whyte will surely want his own man, but I do seriously doubt it will be McCoist, which is a bit s**te for him, he left a hassle free job in the media, to take the no.2 position and was promised the managers job, now it looks less likely, after everything Ally done for Rangers on and off the field he deserves better. I hate to say it but I have met him a few times and he is a genuinely funny guy with loads of times for fans, kids etc, he even called me a fenian so and so ( it was so and so not the other word) but it was just a bit of banter at a charity auction. Take the Sky job andy before you get hung out to dry.

Hello Bhoys. Rangers fans here. Anyone else getting fed up of this?

Some of the comments by Bears on this page are pretty shameful. But, then again, some of the Tim's comments on our page is just the same.

I've said in various forums that the "yous are worse than us brigade" are starting to take over. I'm all for the banter. I love it I do. But when it gets like this I feel ashamed.

I for one will not be back posting on the Celtic Banter page as I do not want to be associated with this hatred and bigotry. I'll spend my energies on my own club rather than worrying about you and yours if you don't mind. lol

Laters. .

PS. .i would encourage all like-minded bears to do the same

"Just heard a a rumour that Craig Levein is working on getting Gary Hooper to play for Scotland. he would be eligible as his grandfather is Scottish"

I'm a Rangers fan, but this would be great.

Re: ppffftt someone wanna break it down for this gentleman. I know we havent met in the europe hence why i said its only fair to compare the teams in competitions that both have been in at the same time . . answer the question : who comes out on top?

Can we discount your iffy 9 in row?

Re: lol . . . I ask the question. . a simple question, the guy has a novel of a hate filled response but in the end NO he couldnt answer. Aww didums poor wee bitter soul!

In response to-

Kind of makes you look like the imbecile you are, not to mention Euro success and a World Cup 3rd place. Hows Kris doing in England? I heard it was a straight choice for Chelsea, Torres or Boyd, just a rumour right enough, it seems to be Celtic players big clubs look towards for talent and knowing that they will have had a good grounding. And as for Fergus, at least he was there, where is your White Knight disappeared to if he ever actually existed. £190 million and counting. Why not grounshare with Airdrie, might even get some players off them, oops sorry, you couldn't afford them either! !

Maybe if you read my message really slowly or perhaps get your mum to read it out loud, you would see the point i was making was not that Boyd was in anyway better than Larsson, he obviously wasnt, but that by your twisted reckoning, because Hooper has scored more goals than Jelavic, hes the better player. Its like telling a joke then having to explain it afterwards talking to you. Bet your one of these guys who still gets the top scorers name on the back of your green n grey hoops arent you? Grow up wee man!
