Maguire: Celtic Rival Ajax and Porto in Stats — But Fall Short Where It Matters Most

October 5, 2025 RAYMOND 0

Kieran Maguire has criticised Celtic’s lack of ambition, arguing that the club’s financial strength should have propelled them further in Europe. The football finance expert noted that while Celtic’s revenues and player sale profits rival those of Ajax and Porto, their performances on the pitch fall far behind. He described the club’s cautious approach as a betrayal of its potential, suggesting that Celtic’s leadership seems more focused on staying just ahead of Rangers than on achieving true European success. With another Champions League campaign slipping away, Maguire’s message is clear — Celtic have the resources to compete with Europe’s elite, but not yet the ambition to match.

Scotland international Stuart Armstrong’s time at Sheffield Wednesday has come to an abrupt end just 105 days after his surprise mid-season move from Vancouver Whitecaps.

Now released, Armstrong joins a list of players departing Hillsborough this summer, while fellow ex-Rangers forward Josh Windass has secured a contract extension after an impressive season, continuing his long-standing role as a key figure at the club.

Celtic have already welcomed back Jota and are set to bring Kieran Tierney home this summer, but caution surrounds the idea of re-signing Kyogo Furuhashi. After struggling to make an impact at Rennes, Kyogo’s potential return has been questioned by former Scotland striker Paul Dickov, who warns that Celtic can’t keep relying on familiar faces.

May 10, 2025 RAYMOND 0

Rangers have struggled with a six-game winless streak as they search for a new manager, with interim boss Barry Ferguson unable to secure a victory in their recent 1-1 draw against Celtic. With the team desperate for their first home win since February, the pressure is mounting ahead of their upcoming match against Aberdeen.

In a surprising turn, former England manager Gareth Southgate has been linked to the Rangers job. Scott Burns, writing for the *Daily Record*, suggested that Southgate could be an excellent fit, citing his success with England, including guiding them to the Euro 2021 final. Despite not winning a major trophy, Southgate’s ability to lead under pressure, including reaching the World Cup semi-finals in 2018, makes him a compelling option for Rangers, who are eager to regain their glory after a disappointing season.

Rangers Set Their Sights on ‘One of the Best Young English Managers’—Is This the Game-Changer They’ve Been Waiting For?

May 5, 2025 RAYMOND 0

Steven Gerrard is reportedly the top candidate to become the next permanent manager of Rangers, following a turbulent season for the club. Despite a strong run in the Europa League, Rangers’ domestic campaign has been disappointing, with their arch-rivals Celtic clinching both the Premiership title and the League Cup. A shocking exit in the Scottish Cup, following a defeat to Queen’s Park, further soured the season.

With Philippe Clement sacked in February due to inconsistency, former midfielder Barry Ferguson has taken over on an interim basis. Rangers are now looking to appoint a permanent manager, and it seems they are eyeing a reunion with Gerrard, who previously led the club to its first Scottish Premiership title in a decade, remaining unbeaten throughout the season.

Since leaving Rangers in 2021 for Aston Villa, Gerrard’s managerial career has seen mixed results, including a brief and unsuccessful stint in Saudi Arabia. Nonetheless, his knowledge of the club and past success make him a strong contender for the role. Rangers fans still hold Gerrard in high regard, and with him currently out of work, his return to Ibrox could be a natural fit.

Rangers Takeover Drama: US Investor Set to Attend Old Firm as Paraag Marathe’s Future Hangs in the Balance!

May 2, 2025 RAYMOND 0

Rangers’ takeover by the 49ers Enterprises group is approaching its final stages, with a deal to purchase a controlling stake in the club expected to be completed by the summer. Recent “productive talks” and a tour of Ibrox by Andrew Cavenagh and Paraag Marathe indicate that the transition is well underway. However, doubts have emerged regarding Marathe’s role as the Old Firm clash against Celtic approaches. Reports suggest that while Cavenagh will be a regular presence at Ibrox next season, Marathe’s involvement may be less frequent due to his prominent role at Leeds United, who have just secured Premier League promotion.

Despite these potential changes, Rangers supporters need not worry. With trusted figures like Cavenagh and Gretar Steinsson, who has shown solid management experience at clubs like Tottenham and Everton, overseeing the club’s operations, Marathe’s reduced presence is unlikely to disrupt the team’s future. While there are pressing concerns, such as the future of interim manager Ferguson and potential player departures in the summer transfer window, the 49ers are set to tackle these challenges head-on, ensuring that the club remains on course for success.
