@paulhamilton005: “It’s time to crank up the disco music cos Kyle lafferty is coming home”

@Ally1872: “I remember a week before Kyle Lafferty scored a hat-trick to bag the 54th title, My da took me to get the new strip and I wanted Lafferty on the back. He talked me out of it saying he may change number or even leave in the summer. Never trusted my da since.”

@OrangeVTI: “Home for 55 @laffk10”

@Broxiboy1: “Great news. Good cover for morelos knows the league and how to be successful with us and also comes back with a wee point to prove. At least one centre back and one more attack minded player and that will give us great competition in the squad”

@SpatestonBear2: “Looks like we have finally got our man in Kyle Lafferty. It seems to have taken forever but that’s just how it is when dealing with other Scottish clubs. Good to have the big man back.”

@DKeith0904: “Not wholly convinced about resigning Lafferty but the big fella is a big game player. Definitely something we’ve been missing”

Some are willing to forgive and forget:

@clonejack: “Said from day 1 I didn’t want Kyle Lafferty back, but now that he is, like all Rangers players (except Windass cos he was jobby) he’ll get my full support”

@_scott1972 asked one fan: “Could u tweet him asking if he can unblock me now plz all is forgiven I love him again x”
