St Johnstone bring in Joe Gormley.
Could be a good signing for them, he certainly knew the way to goal at Cliftonville and we've seen how well Liam Boyce has done since he has came to Scotland. |

lol the Daily Ranger
They tweeted Jozo Simunovic has failed his medical @ Torino however BBC say different: @bbcjsutherland: Despite rumours to the contrary, hearing Jozo Simunovic has not failed his medical. Talks continue between Celtic and Torino @BBCSportScot Daily Record should look for new sources. |

Wasn't he the £5 million quid 'wonderkid' that Lawell personally jetted out to get?

Which of their players were assaulted again? I don't think I've read any of their players saying they were assaulted but I've seen players wife's saying their partners weren't attacked.
A complete Level 5 story that one. Has a go at the SFA and Hibs conveniently ignoring the sectarian singing and the fact that if the The Rangers fans never invaded the pitch there would have been no fighting on the pitch. Shame for the lad if he wanted away but hardly a shock. Apparently he hasn't failed a medical and talks are still ongoing. Firstly, I expect better of you that to try and ignore, deflect or even justify the clear verbal and physical assaults on our players that afternoon. Its actually quite pathetic to see how even intelligent fans like yourself have tried to ignore or laugh about this. Esp as your ex-manager was appallingly assaulted not so long ago. But when its us, its OK. After all, we are all just 1690-tattooed sectarian bigots, we deserve it, don't we?. The bias and hypocrisy is actually f*cking sickening. Imagine opposition fans ran on and verbally and physically assaulted and threatened YOUR players. So we are at fault for the problems on the pitch?. Are you ******* kidding me?. 95% of the trouble that day was Hibs fans. I have told you personally what happened, as I was there. Whilst many Hibees were on to celebrate (which itself is another hypocritical issue), clearly a sizeable group you know the ones who immediately ran the full length, were on for nothing but a 'square go'. Sadly some idiot Gers fulfilled their wish. But to try and suggest we are at fault for the events of that afternoon is pathetic. I/we as Rangers fans condemn 'our' morons who reacted, yet all we get is apologia that the Hibs fans were all on to celebrate. (As if invading the pitch was/is acceptable), If THEY hadn't did what they did, our fans, pissed off as they were, wouldn't have come on. Again, I wholeheartedly criticise those Gers fans who did. They stupidly rose to a bait. Sectarian singing?. Funny how all those ears could hear ours, yet not the Hibs fans. BOTH sets sang dodgy songs that afternoon. Oh and self-righteous Celtic fans might want to clean up their own songbooks before criticising others. Smoke bombs?. Again, BOTH sets set them off. Again, I know as I was there. Hibs fans set them off at the start of the game, and at the end. In fact watch the TV coverage, and one goes off from the Hibs end as Gray is off and running after his goal. Listen, we are no angels. We know that. We have our bampots and thugs. So criticise us for 2008 or Barcelona, or when we deserve it. But to try and blame Rangers fans for 21st May 2016 is just pathetic. I expect this nonsense from Declan on Radio Clyde phone ins. Not a smarter fan like you. |

Before it gets out of hand these are the charges against Hibs and Rangers, I'd be surprised if these can be defended...
Alleged rule breach in relation to Hibernian In that at the above match you failed to adhere to the Cup Competition Rules, specifically Rule 28 of the Rules of The Scottish Cup. That at the above match damage was sustained to Hampden Stadium, being the stadium where the Scottish Cup Final was played, as a consequence of misbehaviour by supporters of your Club. That the misbehaviour by your supporters occurred at the conclusion of the above match, whereby a number of your supporters carried out an incursion onto the pitch, and thereafter remained upon the pitch until cleared by Police Scotland and Stewards. That in the course of this misbehaviour by your supporters damage was sustained to the stadium, as follows i) To the surface of the pitch, portions of which were removed; and/or(ii) To a set of goal posts which were broken and had netting removed; and/or(iii) To parts of the LED advertising system situated at the perimeter of the pitch, in the vicinity of both the East Stand, and/or the North Stand; and/or(iv) To advertising hoardings situated at the perimeter of the pitch, in the vicinity of the East Stand.Alleged rule breach in relation to Rangers In that at the above match you failed to adhere to the Cup Competition Rules, specifically Rule 28 of the Rules of The Scottish Cup.

I'll assume it was similar to a previous post you've made though. Quote:
Wasn't the issue being your club refused to acknowledge that morons ran on the pitch looking for violence. The initial statement was one of defence of those fans claiming they were only seeking to protect the innocent.
Christ, the Vanguard Bears even started a justgiving page for the legal costs of these heroes - https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/vanguardbears Unfortunately photos quickly surfaced of one of these heroes kicking a young Hibs supporter in the face. |

When someone acts aggressively on a football pitch and then instigates a fight which the other player reacts to by fighting back is it only the instigator that gets punished?
Hibs face charges for the areas their fans damaged, Rangers likewise. Just seen the Rangers statement - what bit of the facts behind the charges do they disagree with, were those advertising boards not damaged by Rangers fans? |

RANGERS’ Directors are shocked at the charges issued by the Scottish FA’s Compliance Officer in the wake of the pitch invasion at the end of the Scottish Cup final last May. Laughable statement
It is alarming that the governance of Scottish football is so lacking that it is impossible for the Scottish FA to guarantee the safety of footballers at the country’s showpiece event. The SFA is either unwilling or is powerless when it comes to taking the appropriate punitive action against the offenders. A number of Rangers players were assaulted by Hibernian supporters in broad daylight on the Hampden surface and a repeat of this must be avoided at all costs. That should have been the priority of the SFA. Yet, the governing body insists it is not within its remit to issue any charges let alone punishments for such violent and dangerous misconduct. Instead of player and supporter safety they have placed all their emphasis and importance on the monetary value of a set of goalposts, pieces of turf, and advertising boards. Rangers Directors will take time to consider an appropriate and more comprehensive response to redress our grievances but for the moment the board fully endorses the incredulity and anger of all Rangers supporters. |

What next? The advertising boards deserved the damage they took because they were advertising Magners? |

Good statement from the club - hopefully the next move will be telling the SFA to go and do one as their handling of the cup final has been a whitewash from all involved including Police Scotland thus far.

Fans have been arrested and charged so the fans who assaulted the Rangers players are being dealt with through the courts, Hibs are being dealt with by the SFA and so are Rangers. What's the problem here? Did your fans not damage anything? If they didn't then the SFA should withdraw the charge. |

Jozo on his way back from Italy after Celtic and Torino failed to agree a deal.
Contrary to the DR medical was passed and personal terms agreed. |

Sounds like the young guy we have got on loan from Norwich could be good. Norwich fans are not happy about him being loaned out even though it's only for 4 months
They paid around £3 million possibly rising to £6 million for him earlier this year |
