    I know English isn't my native language but even I know that 'The Rangers fans' is correct, whether you mean 'Rangers' or 'The Rangers' ;)

    Apparently there's going to be an announcement next week but it's hard to see how their first team won't be decimated unless a number of players decide to play for free.

    A MYSTERY American millionaire is among " several" interested individuals and groups ready to rescue Rangers when it emerges from Administration.
    The Stars and Stripes businessman has been approached in the past to be a potential buyer but baulked at taking on the debts and tax demands to take control at Ibrox.

    Express/Star sport has learned however that he has now forwarded a " note of interest " to Administrators Duff and Phelps asking to be kept informed about developments.

    With the long term interest in Rangers of current owner Craig Whyte remaining uncertain Adminstrator Paul Clark yesterday confirmed a number of parties --including at least one consortium -- had already been in contact with a view to buying the club once the financial crisis has been resolved.

    "As Administrators we have a duty to look at all other expressions of interest in the club. To date we have had several such expressions and these will be examined in the forthcoming days and weeks and I will not comment on them individually

    "I would like to say that as Administrators we are acutely aware of the 140 year history of Rangers and we are taking the first steps to ensure this great sporting institution will endure."

    It's thought that any new owner would have to fork out in the region of £25m to secure the stadium, Murray Park training complex and the Albion Car Park.

    Former Rangers chairman Alastair Johnston who is based in Cleveland, Ohio and has been highly critical of Whyte tried to find a buyer in previous years and helped source a £20m cash injection from Bahamas based billionaire Joe Lewis back in 1997 .But it's not known if he is involved in finding another " white knight "


    Rangers currently have three USA internationals on their books . Maurice Edu Carlos Bocanegra and Alejandro Bedoya.

    Honest question, do you think the main reason the game is sold out is to support the team or protest against the owner?

    Presumably it will also be the last chance for the fans to see quite a few of the current team play for Rangers. The team to play Inverness in a week should be a very different side to the one out tomorrow.

    Would not matter if it was a painter or a chef playing for The Rangers at the moment.

    Presumably it would matter what political outlook that chef has though ;)?

    Rangers: McGregor; Broadfoot, Goian, Bocanegra, Papac; Aluko, Davis, Edu, Wallace; McCulloch, Healy.


    Subs: Alexander, Perry, McCabe, Wylde, Hemmings, Kerkar, Mervan

    For the next couple of hours off field matter do not concern me.
    It's all about Ally and the players.

    Quote from a Galatasaray fan, surprised at their support, their forums are filled with it.

    Cracking atmosphere.

    Papac red card. Things not going to plan for the full house today.

    Has anyone heard anything about a Czech Consortium being interested in Rangers?

    Papac off - reckless tackle but not a straight red imo.

    Players need to get a ****ing grip of themselves, the fans that turned up today deserve much better than this ****e.

    Even having seen it, I think red was harsh enough, I expected a yellow but Papac is not a dirty player. Silly tackle alright, but was surprised to see a straight red.

    Not really, 1-1 would have been more correct.

    Healy was never offside for his goal.
