I think for the amount of corners we get in a match and do absolutely nothing from, harry souttar would be a great signing

Charlie Nicolson

A wee bidding war between the Turks and Saudi Arabians for our players is probably wishful thinking on my part, but would certainly be very welcome

Graham Roy

I also doubt those figures spouted by the hater have any foundation! Sell Hampden and move to murrayfield with the combined money from both organisations they could make it one of the best stadiums in the U.K.!

Piggott

It wouldn't be a transfer window without david mentioning the Turkish media

John Smith

Interested to get everyone’s take on this. Would you rather play for Gio or Gerrard ?

Broono

"went all oor wullie there" as in soapy soutar...fantastic ! great forensic update yet again

John Smith

Also have to say thoughts and prayers are with Alan Hansen. Scotland’s Beckenbauer

Russ

Either or. The real rock and a hard place is the treatment you get as a player in Saudi and Turkey. Both associations will spit you out with little pay if you don't perform.

John Smith

That’s true Russ. Turkey would probably be closer to home but the Saudi cash can’t be turned down

Gerrard for me. I think his demand for excellence would be a huge motivation. Also he’s my favourite non rangers player

Russ

Worth mentioning that Gio had twice the career Gerrard did - which wasn't a bad one in itself. I think it's been mentioned on the podcast we were fanny dazzled by Gerrard yet Gio played in some great sides including some of our own. Funny looking back really.

Craig Guthrie

At least we are now being linked with defenders. Need at least two asap

Heart and Hand

Russ - it’s true, Gio’s career was better. But star quality isn’t something you can put your finger on.

Billy McCormack

Silva like alot of players who thought coming to Rangers would be a canter, then they get spanked, and like Silva blames the fans for his misgivings, nah you were just shite pal.

Craig

Is it a normal thing worldwide, or is Scotland an outlier in having the president of the football association be the chairman of a part time club from the lower reaches?

Stillsaw

I think twice the career is pushing it a bit. gio won more trophies yeah can’t argue there

Greg McEwen

Out a bit quick as looks like Nsiala is signing from AC Milan. One to discuss tomorrow then!

Kenny Davidson

Chuck Prophet brilliant stuff he wrote one off the best summertime tune ever summertime thing surprisingly called.

Graham Jones

We need to sell to allow the manager to buy, and it’s Nils Koppen’s job to get us as much money as he can. We’re the worst at valuing our players as a fanbase, because we either go too high or too low. Koppen knows the true market values, and we have to trust him and let him do the deals his own way. This manager managed to rescue something of last season that was looking like a disaster and he did it with ‘that squad’. Now we need to let him go and rebuild the squad with a group who he wants at the club. Hampden is a shithole, and when we look down towards a country like Wales, who can build a 74,000 seater stadium with a retractable roof, then there simply are no excuses for the sorry state of Hampden. It’s a national disgrace and makes us look incompetent.

Re Hampden I simply don’t believe it is that difficult to raise finance to build new stands behind the goal through a combination of public and private finance The North Stand needs converted to rail standing/seating Both changes hugely improve matters

Colin Mathie

Remember the game where the stadium was like a swimming pool cause the drainage system is shit Mike, yeah the place is a shithole and needs bulldozed.

Doogz

When you employ Alloa this is what you get.

Gregg

Quoting how good the atmosphere is when talking about stadium facilities is a massive red herring. £250m - surely you could knock it down and rebuild for less than that. Absolute morons - couldn’t run a bath. Surprised - nope

Scott

Eric showed me his birthday gift David, very very smart scarf!! He was well chuffed!!

Stewart Robertson

For any of the younger bears who don't know who Trevor Francis is - go to YouTube and search for his penalty in the Skol Cup final against Aberdeen. Cool as a cucumber. No run up, just stroked the ball past Leighton.

Stewart Robertson

Our penalty takers were - Ally McCoist, Davie Cooper, Robert Fleck, Trevor Francis and Ian Durrant. We could have done with their quality in Seville.

Graeme McLeod

Hampden is a shitehole. No interest in the national team, but at this point I'd rather cup finals are played at Murrayfield. Better stadium, better transport links.

Russ

Gerrards a Shevchenko tap in/Dudek worldie away from being in the Le Tissier category of wasted careers at a club. You have to respect his loyalty and he was a Roy Of The Rovers figure for Liverpool and English football but if anyone's going to drive winning standards and excellence it's Gio - simply because he won time and again. Maybe I'm howling for this one but he's a formative player for me, I'll bat for him all day long.
