Les & Co need to pull their finger out! 13:04 - Jun 16 with 13014 views | oldhoop | We only have; 2 keepers - Green & McCarthy (1 needed) 5 defenders - Hill, Caulker, Onuoha, Suk-Young & Traore (at least 4 more needed) 8 Midfielders - Phillips (staying?), Henry (re-signing?),Hoillet, Fer (staying?), Sandro (???), Luongo, Gladwin & now Mackie (before departures 2 more needed) 2 Forwards - Austin (soon to go) & JET (3 needed) A total squad of 17 (plus possibly the youngsters Greco-Cox, Doughty, Ehmer and Furlong) That looks extremely, worryingly, thin!!! Bear in mind the extra games in the Championship and no 25 man restriction boy do we need some extra resource!!! At least 10 more players and pronto.(plus replacements for any further leavers) This has all the hallmarks of another disaster and I am completely not taken in by the "new world" mantra. We have had 11 leavers so far and have recruited just 4. (if Mackie goes ahead) with bigger squads in the Championship we are woefully short of numbers and the season is 6/7 weeks away. Please please lets not go into another season with just a couple of forwards, the successful clubs have at least 5 we surely can't fall into that trap again, can we? Come on Les get your finger out or we will struggle to stay in this division let alone contend for promotion! | | | | |

really? pre season starts in just over 2 weeks and last minute.com doesn't work as we have proved time and again! Just don't want us to fall into the same trap as previous seasons. With only 4 in v 11 leavers and more expected to go the task to get a big enough (quality) squad at Rangers is the biggest challenge facing any team in the Champiuonship | | | |

5? Who are they DaveB? Luogno , Gladwin and JET, who else? Are you counting the 2 academy players? They won't be anywhere near the first team for a good while! [Post edited 16 Jun 2015 13:59]

Not everyone has got to sign almost an entire new squad!!!! 11 gone already and at least 3 (Austin, Phillips & Fer) almost certain to go and doubts about Henry and Sandro. Also need for a bigger squad for the Championship (at least 28) 3 more than last season 19/20 players in? More than any team in all 4 divisions by a long way!!!! 4 first teamers in so far! Miles and miles to go yet! | | | |

those two under 21 players we signed yesterday are still signings, As usual we'll sign shit loads of players and moan we haven't signed enough players then we'll moan we signed too many | | | |

Les & Co need to pull their finger out! on 14:52 - Jun 16 with 7805 views | RANGERS4EVER | Yeah forgot you can just sign good players with ease. Not like they have clubs trying to keep hold of them or anything. Yeah, lets just spend millions on them just so we have good players. Thats worked before, not like we have FFP or £60m debt Yeah lets just buy players who look good, lets not bother scouting or anything. sure that will work out okay. Yeah, lets all panic, not as if we have two months until the season starts to get good, well scouted players in. Jesus. | |

RANGERS4EVER OK Mate, steady, might as werll give up now then! Who's panicking? Just concerned as the seasoin will be here before we know it and wouldn't it be better for CR & co to be working with something like the squad that will play the majority of the games at the start of pre season that trying to mould a team of newbies half way through September? you're OK with the fact that we could barely raise a side at the moment then? | | | |

Les & Co need to pull their finger out! on 17:07 - Jun 16 with 7579 views | whittocksRs | Obviously we need to be working as quickly as possible to get the squad together and used to each other, but no panic needed just yet. | | | |
Les & Co need to pull their finger out! on 18:27 - Jun 16 with 7469 views | theQPRking | If Spurs sign Trippier from Burnley, giving them another RB adding to Walker, Dier, and Yedlin, I'd love to get Yedlin on a season long loan.. He looked the real deal for USA in the World Cup.. A bit raw still but proper decent.. Mike | | | |

They didn't have to work hard to get rid, try getting rid of overpaid players such as Onuoah, Toilet and Traore. We haven't made signings like Austin and Philips the type of players who will shine in this division and who you know will make the step up. Our defence is crap. | | | |

Counting them is like counting all the other youngsters we've signed over the years who end up going out on loan. | | | |

Les & Co need to pull their finger out! on 20:37 - Jun 16 with 7236 views | SomersetR | Also forgetting left back Jack Robinson who was on loan at Huddersfield last season. Apparently had a good season but did get injured near the end and will miss start of season. | | | |
Les & Co need to pull their finger out! on 20:42 - Jun 16 with 7213 views | SomersetR | Oh yeah and Ryan Manning who we signed in January, another youngster who could break in this season. He is a winger can't remember which side though. | | | |
