Looks like he has strength and pace. Also can hit a free kick. What’s not to like?[emoji106]

Every time I open a B&W Army page, up pops a Legia Warsaw Vs Glasgow Blue Noses advert to buy TV coverage on Rangers TV channel!!!!!!! 😣
Can we please have SOME SENSE when it comes at accepting adverts on a B&W page?

Brilliant for the clubs youth structure yet again. Could be a fair few joining them over the years to come. Well done both lads. 

Wow!  What are the chances, eh?
 
By an amazing stroke of luck the two cheeks are kept apart.
 
Who'd a thunk it?   

Rangers beat St Mirren more times than any other team

This is unfortunately now a stat that can never change since that club is now dead

Hate to be accused of being a happy clapper, but the squad looks as good as we could’ve hoped. Another striker and my optimism will be higher than it’s been for years[emoji106]🥳🥳

I think with Sunday being the first "proper" home game of the season it would be fitting for us all to remember Fiona McCaskill who passed away in the summer, aged just 35.
One of our own, and a big personality at games who was always heard!
So, as the clock ticks over into the 35th minute can I ask anyone who is willing to stand and applaud (and maybe even the odd Whoop!) for a minute to remember her?
League rules mean the club isn't allowed to promote this so we need to do it among ourselves to ensure the offline and online supporters know it's happening.
Appreciate if you could help spread the word to your fellow buds if you agree this would be a fitting way to remember Fiona.

Loan players from clubs in our league aren't always the best solution, means we can't play them 3 or 4 times due to playing their parent club.

BILL LECKIE says .........
SCOTTISH football is heading for a disaster.
Not the kind that means missing out on the World Cup for another 30 years, running out of money to pay players the average worker’s annual salary in a week or Brexit causing a Bovril shortage.
No, I’m talking about the kind of disaster where people die.
The kind that was never again meant to happen after 66 souls lost their lives at Ibrox in 1971 but which wasn’t taken seriously until 96 didn’t make it home from Hillsborough 18 years later.
The kind that was supposed to be taken out of the equation by all-seater stadia and high-tech turnstiles that would, in time, educate us to enjoy watching football in comfort and safety.
 
Trouble is, that equation doesn’t add up once you factor in the kind of halfwit who lacks the basic sense not to trample over their own mates in the name of celebration.
Because without that, all the computerised entry systems and carefully-calculated capacity levels in the world won’t save us from the day or night when horror strikes.
And as Sunday at Rubgy Park in Kilmarnock proves only too well, that horror is looming unless drastic action is taken right now.
An exit gate forced open by visiting Rangers fans “impatient” at the length of time it was taking to search them. Every aisle in the away stand jammed with punters. A last-gasp winning goal marked by the kind of pitch invasion that has crept back into fashion.
Then, most worryingly of all, morons dancing on the roof of an enclosure for disabled supporters — their own fellow Rangers supporters, by the way — before crashing through and landing on a helpless guy in a wheelchair.
If these had been scenes that shocked the nation, that came from nowhere, then maybe we could write them off as a blip. First day of the season, bit over-excited, won’t happen again.
They weren’t, though. Sadly — frighteningly — they’re not only familiar but almost inevitable, especially when our two biggest clubs are involved.
Remember the chaos when celtic scored in a home Old Firm game back in March, when fans came over the barriers to dance and gloat and goad? Remember the lame-brain leaping about with a toddler under his arm?
All it needed that day was someone to trip and a domino effect might have crushed that little kiddie. All it needed was for the away section to take the bait, jump the hoardings and all bets would have been off.
That section of celtic fans, ǝpɐbıɹq uǝǝɹb ǝɥʇ, delight in hurling fireworks and smoke bombs without caring who they land on. They’ll tell you it’s all just a laugh, part of the game.
They’ll even tell you that without them, there would be no atmosphere at matches, because they lead the singing.
As the saying goes, though, it’s all fun and games until someone loses an eye. And the way things are going, one lost eye might well be a result.
We came close to full-on carnage at the end of the 2016 Scottish Cup Final, below, when thousands of Hibs fans came on the Hampden pitch for what started out as a joyous release of relief and happiness only to morph into a level of vandalism and violence which was about one decent uppercut away from a riot.

Hibs fans raided the pitch after the 2016 Scottish Cup final
That was the day Scottish football, Police Scotland and the Scottish Government should have realised there was a problem to be dealt with.
But because we just about got away with it, they waited for the fuss to die down then swept it all under the carpet.
This, sadly, has been the policy of both Rangers and celtic for more than a century about the behaviour of an angry, obsessive and downright obnixious element of their respective supports.
My column in Monday’s sports pages centred on the contempt the Rangers end at Kilmarnock had shown for their own club’s much-publicised Anyone Everyone campaign — to make the club open to supporters of all faiths, colours and blahdy blah — by bawling a non-stop megamix of anti-Catholic anthems.
The club have said not one word 
about these anthems. They never do. Neither did they publicly criticise their own players for openly encouraging fans who came on the park.
Yet they were double-quick to accuse Kilmarnock of having crappy turnstiles, hopeless stewarding and even caned the flimsiness of that disabled enclosure, which really should have been tested for its roof’s ability to support a celebrating mob
Then, brass neck on brass neck, they deflected even further by sighing about how celtic fans at a women’s match between the clubs on the same day had made sexist and sectarian comments to their team — their gall only matched by those celtic fans issuing a statement about how they “take pride in our efforts to support access to football for all, irrespective of race, religion or sex”.
You know, apart from all those chants supporting the IRA and hating “Orange b*stards”.
Rangers fans, meanwhile, were giving me it tight on social media for not having mentioned some banner celtic fans had flown the previous day, because that’s how their tiny minds work.
This kind of rubbish, this He-Said-She-Said whataboutery, is what holds back any progress on this issue. Rather than addressing their own behaviour, each club instantly points at the other and reminds us of something THEY did.
And you what’s most insulting of all? That if and when some game somewhere does end in disaster, they’ll unite in grief — green-and-white and red, white and blue scarves entwined at the scene, fans of one side making sure they’re seen being all respectful at the other’s gates.
But the lawlessness of too many angers me. The hypocrisy of too many sickens me.
And the failure of those in power to do anything about either terrifies me.

Dear oh dear. The manager has been in place for under 3 weeks ffs. He has looked at the squad and will now know what he needs. Let’s see what the next couple of weeks brings before the knives are sharpened

As revealed by Div on P&B, there's a story in today's DR saying that we're in talks to get Kyle McAllister back permanently. [emoji4]

After such a horrific opening to our 2019/20 season, huge kudos as always to those Buddies who travelled to Easter Road with nothing but hope for encouragement.
Well done one and all.
 

Well good progress made this week . Still quite a few too come. about four I'm hearing.  A full back and experienced CH another striker and of course an other small midfielder (this is st mirren after all).  Have to be happy with that. 
 

Welcome Jonathan! There is an opportunity here for a striker to make his mark - hopefully it's you.[emoji106]

Good, keep the vermin off the streets.
An utter cnut of a man. 

Mark Yardley for me. Hit the ground running and never looked back. Gunni Torfason, as I’d never heard of him until he signed and was a brilliant piece of business

It's Thursday. 
Going to be a busy day. 

That’s more like it. Looks an exciting signing out of nowhere. Hopefully the start of a wee flurry of signings this week. Welcome to Paisley Ilkay.

Saints sign Durmus
Welcome to the club Ilkay!

Aye... remember those long hot summers, cold beer and signing players BEFORE the season started. Ah bally bygone days...

Don't tell me there's two of them.
