Harry Forrester says he is delighted Rangers have shown faith in him after signing a new three-year deal with the Championship winners. The attacking midfielder has impressed since joining from Doncaster Rovers in the winter on an initial six-month deal, scoring five goals in 16 games.Ibrox manager Mark Warburton confirmed recently that talks with the 25-year-old were under way, and an agreement has now been reached. It feels brilliant. When I came here in January, my aim was to be here longer than six months. They offered me three years which is a good show of faith on their behalf, said Forrester.At first it was a slow start for myself, catching up with the boys on fitness and the team were doing so well. I wasnt playing at my previous club, so I had to catch up on fitness and sharpness.And then coming to Rangers is pressure in itself. You have 50,000 every week cheering you on. They support you but its a bit of pressure. But of late I have come into the team and hopefully I can stay in the team. Rangers Harry Forrester celebrates as Peterheads Ally Gilchrist scores a own goal. The manager has just told me to keep going, I have settled in well but I have got to kick on again. Its not going to be easy next year and I will go away this summer and work hard.He (Warburton) has been instrumental. If it wasnt for him I wouldnt be here now. For him to believe in me, to believe I could cope with Rangers, it gave me a lot of confidence and hopefully I can continue to impress.I just wanted to come up and do myself justice. I didnt want to let myself down or let the gaffer down. Its up to me to kick on again. Forrester credits Warburton for success of move north Forrester is confident of Rangers chances in the Scottish Cup semi-final against Celtic this Sunday, live on Sky Sports, following their impressive 4-0 victory over Dundee in the previous round.We got off to a flying start and it was against Premiership opposition.

Thousands of Southern California fans enveloped the Trojans to celebrate an improbable win secured by an interim coach, an inconsistent kicker and a thin defence that wouldnt break. Tim Brown Raiders Jersey . Collaros, 25, was solid last season, posting a 5-2 record as the starter while incumbent Ricky Ray was injured. Collaros also started Torontos 23-20 regular-season finale loss to Montreal — Ray didnt dress because the Argos had already clinched first in the East Division — but was one of three quarterbacks to play that day. https://www.raiderssportsgoods.com/Womens-Tim-Brown-Inverted-Jersey/ .

INDEPENDENCE, Ohio -- It only took until the close of the Cleveland Cavaliers first week of training camp before LeBron James stuck his neck out into the stalled J.R. Smith negotiations and publicly stumped for the holdout guard.I hate coming into another season -- two years in a row -- with one of my big guns not here, James said, alluding to Tristan Thompson, who missed most of training camp last fall with a similar holdout situation. So, for a leader of a team and for me personally, I just hate to deal with this s--- again.Its just too big of a piece to our team to have to deal with in another training camp. Like I said, hopefully things get resolved fast, because you know how big and important he is to our team.James comments came unprompted. In fact, a team public relations staffer told James he was free from media obligations for the day but James chose to meet with reporters anyway.Smith did not pick up his $5.3 million player option for the 2016-17 season in July, becoming an unrestricted free agent after averaging 12.4 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.1 steals and hitting 204 3-pointers in 77 starts for Cleveland.Like Thompson and James, Smith is represented by Rich Paul of Klutch Sports.Multiple sources told ESPN that the Cavs have offered a three-year escalating contract to Smith with a partial guarantee in the fourth year, bringing the total guaranteed money north of $42 million -- the same amount Jamal Crawford got when he re-signed with the LA Clippers this offseason, except his deal only included $30.5 million guaranteed.A source familiar with the negotiations told ESPN on Friday about the Cavs offer: I dont see it changing anytime soon.Negotiations are always two-sides, James said, but J.R. did his part. J.R. did his part. He showed up every day. Worked his ass off every day. Became a two-way player, a model citizen in Cleveland and hes a fan favorite, obviously we all know that. All of the sudden now hes a season-ticket holder at the Indians games.The Cavs will start Iman Shumpert in Smiths absence, according to coach Tyronn Lue. Shumpert told reporters Friday he came into camp at 212 pounds, the lowest playing weight of his six-year career, and spent the offseason honing his offense.Smith represents the fourth Cavs player in the past 10 years -- Anderson Varejao, Sasha Pavlovic and Thompson are the others -- to have contract negotiatioons bleed into training camp.ddddddddddddOutside of the Cavs, Smiths options are limited. The only teams with significant cap space remaining -- the 76ers, Nuggets, Nets, Suns and Jazz -- are either in rebuilding mode or already stocked at his position.Lue wouldnt entertain the thought of negotiations falling apart and Smith going elsewhere, but -- when pressed -- said the team could withstand his departure if it came to that.Were saying that he is going to come back, Lue said. If he doesnt come back, we understand its a business and we just have to move forward. No excuses. Next man up. Next man has to be ready. We have some great pieces around who can also step in and play a role for us on this team.James echoed that sentiment.Were missing a piece, but we still have enough talent, James sad. We cant become full until hes here, but that doesnt deter anybody or any of the guys thats coming in to show up every day. Were still working our tails off and everybody who is filling in has been working extremely hard through this camp so far and were going to continue to do that.Lue also said Smith is not significantly hurting his chance to contribute this season by missing training camp.When youve been in a system for two years, you dont fall behind, Lue said. The biggest thing is probably being in shape. He knows our offense, he knows our defense. Were not changing anything. I dont think from that standpoint hell be behind at all.While the prevailing sentiment is that the sides will come together eventually, James warned that one can never consider anything a done deal before its actually done.Well, I always use this reference: Its like youre buying a house, James said. You can go find a house, you do all the negotiations and all that, but you never got the house until its closed and you got the keys. Last minute, someone can step in. Escrow could fall through or something. Then it aint your house no more.So, J.R. is a free agent. Hes not ours. Hes still my brother right now. And I feel like when I play 2K17, hes still on the Cavs, so hes on my roster there, but it wouldnt be good if he was not here. It wouldnt be good for any side.We just miss him. We miss having him around. Hes a big piece of our team and they just need to get it done. ' ' '
