	SBS The World Game - Glory wait on Mols
		Mols, who has been playing with Dutch side ADO Den Haag, watched his potential new teammates run through their paces on Friday but did not speak to the media.
		Although Mols has been approached by clubs from Europe, including Feyenoord, the USA and the Middle East, Perth coach Ron Smith felt the club was in with a chance.
		When Smith met Mols in the Netherlands he intended to offer him a spot as a guest player but that soon changed when Mols indicated he was interested in playing for a whole season.

	Glory hope to sign Dutchman Michael Mols : thewest.com.au
		Perth Glory is hopeful former Dutch international Michael Mols will sign on as the club's marquee player for the coming A League soccer season.
		Mols, who has been playing with Dutch team ADO Den Haag as a striker, did not speak to the media but Glory coach Ron Smith felt the club was in with a chance.
		Smith said a player of Mols' experience and calibre would be very useful to the team, which finished second from the bottom of the ladder last year.

	Michael decides to go on his travels - Evening Times (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Mols' agent, Rob Jansen, said: "We had a meeting with the people at Rangers and a one-year contract extension for Michael was discussed.
		Talks to keep the 33-year-old Mols at Ibrox for an extra year took place on Tuesday, but, although no details of the take-it-or-leave-it deal are available, the offer bears a striking resemblance to the one which failed to tempt Arthur Numan into a 12-month extension last summer.
		Mols' retirement-hastened departure, along with the de Boer twins, means the curtain is close to dropping on the Dutch era at Ibrox, which started with Dick Advocaat's arrival in 1998.

	CNN.com - Mols back for Old Trafford clash - Nov. 3, 2003
		Michael Mols has been given the all-clear to play for Rangers in their crunch Champions League tie against Manchester United on Tuesday.
		Rangers manager Alex McLeish confirmed Dutchman Mols was fit after twisting his knee in a Scottish League win over Partick on Saturday but fellow countryman Fernando Ricksen, who was stretchered off in that game with an ankle injury, has been ruled out.
		"Michael is now feeling a lot better and will be fit enough to play at Old Trafford," McLeish said.

		Michael Mols will again be asked to mine his deep reserves of Dutch courage as Rangers enter the Champions League casino without lucky mascot Giovanni van Bronckhorst.
		Dick Advocaat is sweating on the availability of Mols for the crunch tie against Monaco after the striker suffered another setback in his quest for fitness.
		Mols, particularly, brings an additional dimension to the Rangers attack and, with victory essential in the Group D encounter, he again is likely to begin in harness with Saturday's five-goal hero, Miller.

	The Scotsman - Sport - Mols triggers goals galore (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Mols, whose beaming grin lit up Scottish football in his early days at Ibrox only to be replaced in recent times with a careworn frown, relished the chance to smile again.
		While Mols made sure he would dominate the headlines, Stephen Hughes marked his first start of the season with some terrific touches and accurate passing to post a reminder that the absent Mikel Arteta is not the only gifted young midfielder at Ibrox.
		It was another vintage Mols moment, using his strength and body movement to hold up Ricksen’s pass before releasing the ball into the path of Ferguson’s run, the home captain clipping his shot over Marshall for his sixth goal of the season.

	Scotland on Sunday - Sport - Glasgow is still Mols better
		MICHAEL Mols spent last week, the build-up to Holland’s Euro 2004 play-off first leg with Scotland at Hampden back in his native land - he wanted away from the stereotypical sniping at his countrymen from sections of our media who label all from the land of Total Football as arrogant.
		That Mols, and Rangers are now vying with top German opposition again in the Champions League, in this instance VfB Stuttgart, is the stage which the 32-year-old Dutchman has battled hard to return to, and one which he is intent on prolonging with a visit to the next round of Europe’s foremost tournament.
		He never let on to anyone, but as far as Mols was concerned, the ghost of that fateful Champions League night in Munich against Bayern could only ever be properly exorcised by a return to Europe’s Premier club tournament, and this season’s Group E campaign has finally seen the demons disperse.

		RANGERS' Dutch striker Michael Mols is to see a top specialist in Holland in an attempt to clear up the long-term knee injury that has kept him out of action for almost a year.

	ESPN.com Soccernet Scotland: News - Mols is back in the big time
		It was former Celtic director Michael Kelly who once patented the 'Glasgow Smiles Better' slogan some years ago, but it was Michael Mols who had the monopoly on it last night at Ibrox.
		Mols didn't find a team-mate with his cross but when Allan Johnston delivered it again de Boer was there to make it 2-0.
		Mols might have had another, but he could be forgiven for a 36th-minute miss, such had been his talismanic influence in securing the points well before the half-way point.

	ESPNsoccernet - Report: Rangers vs Aberdeen - Scottish Premier League
		Mols had struck late in the first half to give his side a lead their lack-lustre play had hardly deserved and Aberdeen's attacking second half policy looked to have paid off when Steve Tosh conjured up an equaliser with a quarter of an hour remaining.
		It could be argued that the old Michael Mols - the one that existed before cruciate ligaments were ruptured in a Champions League match in Munich in 1999 - might have stuck it away but the Dutchman's trademark smile was back seven minutes before the break.
		Only yesterday Mols had avoided a journalist from the club's in-house magazine because he was too depressed to do an interview.
