Ramsay ruled out of Dortmund game

[sirstevefleming]

Medicals have absolutely no bearing on match fitness.

They can predict the risk associated with injury however

 

[Moe Szyslak]

I said on one of the other threads on him that I genuinely hope he isn’t just here to gradually build up fitness for wales and the World Cup rather than help us to win games and trophies. being involved in training and then a 10 min appearance here and there isnt what we need.

 

[Manc Bear]

Aye you're right, admin is coming.

So we are cash rich are we? Not saying admin is coming ya loon but we need to be prudent. This is proving to be a vanity signing

 

[Blue boy]

When will we ever sign a player who makes an instant impact then carrys it on, free of i jury, free of health issues, free of drink issues and free of mental and attitude issues.
Does this exist for our club.

 

[CaptainCourageous]

They'll be more worried about not having Haaland than I am about not having Ramsey.

If Ramsey ends up making any meaningful contribution to our season I'll just consider that a bonus.

I’m not worried in the slightest about Ramsey being unavailable. We beat Dortmund without him, he’s contributed nothing.

He’s miles away from being fit. He won’t be starting against Motherwell either.

 

[Blue boy]

And to think we could have had souttar in for half a season.
Not only for this period but it would have bed him in before Goldson left.

 

[El Fenomeno]

Heart and hand said we got him for no loan fee as it saves Juve a fortune with the break in his contract.

I think they are reliable.

Yet Sky said different (who will have their sources in Italy). H&H will put whatever spin the club want on any news coming out.

This.
He’s dead to me until he starts and has a decent game.

 

[Lord Tom]

Considering he's cost us next to nothing...

Nobody really knows the cost or the financial mechanics of the move.

 

[NsKMaDBaDGer]

Would have been shocked if we had used him tomorrow night tbh - not enough playing time under his belt since he arrived to walk staright into the team on such an important night

 

[Blue boy]

That big cheesy grin from Ross Wilson when being unveiled .
God knows why we chased Wilson, so far its been absolutely no benefit.

 

[Lord Tom]

Yet Sky said different (who will have their sources in Italy). H&H will put whatever spin the club want on any news coming out.

That’s a wee bit unfair on the H&H guys.
You any evidence of this.

 

[Blue boy]

But on the bench would have been ideal.

 

[chilebear]

He isn’t going to be fit

We have enough without him

Aribo needs a rest though he looks fucked mentally as much as anything

Good point on Aribo

 

[Lord Tom]

This.
He’s dead to me until he starts and has a decent game.

FFS, what am I reading here?
What are we becoming?

 

[RangersLad1983]

Lots of midfield running tomorrow night.
Better for him to focus on Sunday.

Sunday you say let's be honest he has not showing he can play more than 40 mns up till now,surely he was signed for big games like tomorrow night.

 

[Blair1310]

When, exactly? It’s not as we’ve signed him on a four year contract.

There are only 12 league games left, and potentially just one more EL and one more Scottish Cup tie remaining this season.

Then he’s away back to Italy.

11 league games left.

The old "Hell be okay for the next game" patter from successive Rangers managers is getting a little tiresome now.
What happens?
Most of us not gullible enough to believe everything that's said just knew he'd be out.
It's like our medical /physio team get a hold of a player carrying a knock and somehow make matters worse?

 

[Mustang mad]

No it isn't.

That's only if you believe the made up £2m loan fee.

Do we have a definitive figure for a loan fee? how much of his wages are we paying?
Does anyone know

 

[Rt. Hon. Bearman]

11 league games left.

Correct.

Underlines the need to get Ramsay fit asap. We won't have him for long.

 

[sir_walter_smith]

They'll be more worried about not having Haaland than I am about not having Ramsey.

If Ramsey ends up making any meaningful contribution to our season I'll just consider that a bonus.

£20-30k a week, that kind of bonus?

 

[Pirlo]

FFS, what am I reading here?
What are we becoming?

Nuttier than a squirrel jobby

 

[Blair1310]

Correct.

Agree. Still hopeful he will contribute to the title win in the long run.

 

[RangersLad1983]

I posted the exact same feelings I had weeks ago that really he wanted somewhere to build up his match fitness if as it looks like at the moment then it was an expensive signing

 

[Ruben Sosa]

So it wasn't a "knock" then, it's an injury.

 

[Treble Kings]

The man's going to pull us on his back to 56 with authoritative and sublime football....


...said no c#nt ever...

 

[Barba Roja]

My biggest concern is GVB giving opposition heads up 24 hrs before tie.
Why say anything? Could get 'injured' tomorrow. No need to give details now

Nonsense!

He was never starting this game anyway so who cares?

Another pointless dig at our club just now.

 

[BoyciesDa]

Slowly starting to regret picking this username...

Watch you don’t break a finger nail typing

 

[Gibraltar Loyal]

Nonsense!

Tou think thats a dig? Jeezo. You ok petal?

It's a fact that Gio gives too much away in PCs. Keep his cards close to his chest and keep the opposition guessing.

 

[Artful Dodger]

I said on one of the other threads on him that I genuinely hope he isn’t just here to gradually build up fitness for wales and the World Cup rather than help us to win games and trophies. being involved in training and then a 10 min appearance here and there isnt what we need.

That’s what Charlie ridiculous said when he signed. He was quoted in saying something very similar to your post regarding a World Cup squad.

 

[LarkfiedLoyalNS]

Against Dortmund last week I couldn't believe how slow he looked. Genuinely looked as though he was struggling to run.

Seems as if he's going to be a waste of money. By the time he's match fit (if ever), the season will be done.

Said the same at the time although who was caring when we were winning 4-2 in Dortmund.

Niko Kranjcar mobility it reminded me of really really slow and looked like someone who was a professional footballer not still currently one.

 

[Delboy Trotter]

£2m on a household name for 4 months that will be lucky to play more than 5 full 90 minute games in a huge season

Starting to think it’s Juve that have pulled Ross Wilson’s pants down rather than the other way as many suggested.

 

[tr0211]

Ach well Jack and Kamara/Lundstrum are more than good enough

Whilst many may moan that he isn't fit for this game, I'd rather not upset the form and momentum of the current team. Midfield duo of Lundstram and Jack were excellent last week and bossed the midfield. I'd be reluctant to put Ramsey in for any of them or any of Kent, Aribo, Morellos and Arfield. Could be a blessing in disguise.

Dundee Utd game can be forgotten about. It's like doing that last team meeting before you get promoted. The heart isn't there and you just want to press on to the big one.

 

[RangersLad1983]

A pointless signing. Should have used whatever money we’ve put towards Ramsey into getting the Souttar deal over the line at the time.

Souttar is another injury prone player,I think we look out for them and personally don't get the hype with Souter apart from a goal for the trannie rangers hating team I don't know what he gives to us

 

[Albert Bridge Bear]

A social media signing.

 

[Barba Roja]

Tou think thats a dig? Jeezo. You ok petal?

It's a fact that Gio gives too much away in PCs. Keep his cards close to his chest and keep the opposition guessing.

Its a pre match press conference, of course he’ll tell the press who is available.

Do you want our players to wear disguises until kick off to keep the other side guessing?

Scanted by Juve. brilliant.

 

[Huck]

Medicals have absolutely no bearing on match fitness.

I'm not sure that's entirely correct.
There are numerous vo2max and strength output associated tests involved.

 

[Laudrup11Cooper]

An amount within our wage structure, £25k-£30k a week.

So less than 10% of his wage if his rumoured wage is true

So 25-30k a week is still a pretty hefty wage for someone who is offering pretty much nothing.
In return?

 

[BWO]

Don't really see why Souttar is getting a mention here, paying Hearts way over the odds for a player that is out on contract in a few weeks whilst we have adquate cover is irrelevant.

 

[SuperGers07]

That’s a wee bit unfair on the H&H guys.
You any evidence of this.

He has no evidence

 

[dublinbluenose]

Not a single poster on here though we should pay any more than we offered for a player we have signed for free.classic FF rewriting history

 

[Laudrup11Cooper]

I think they are reliable.

No offence, but I am sure the lads mostly get their info from the club?
If the club really wanted no one to know the details, of this deal.Or any other deal.I am pretty sure they could keep it under wraps.

 

[Souness86]

He isn't going to build up match fitness by playing "10 minutes here and there", so with all due respect that is a pretty pish theory.

 

[Boab4]

I'm not sure that's entirely correct.
There are numerous vo2max and strength output associated tests involved.

Yeah there will be, still doesn't test for match fitness. Need matches for that.

 

[Kentbear]

It was a gamble, he is a top drawer footballer with a history of injury problems, you can see in his short game time just how good he is.
A gamble worth taking imo as he may be the x factor in getting us across the line.

 

[RfcIbrox]

Made from glass.

You'd have thought they would have picked that up at the medical by a simple x-Ray.

 

[BWO]

Not a single poster on here though we should pay any more than we offered for a player we have signed for free.classic FF rewriting history

From me?
I was referencing the implication below that the money could have gone on Souttar instead (more than we offered)

And to think we could have had souttar in for half a season.
Not only for this period but it would have bed him in before Goldson left.

 

[Lord Tom]

He has no evidence

Agreed.
I have none and I listen every day.

 

[Blue and white ‘75]

It’s another Daniel Prodan , difference is we get to pay £2.5m , a disaster . Also we’re leaking goals quicker than the titanic . Next three league games , Motherwell , Dundee and sheep . Can anyone honestly think we’ll get nine points
