Transfer thread - OFFICIAL!! David Templeton signs 4 year deal


Recommended Posts

Rangers have signed former Hibernian and Kilmarnock midfielder Dean Shiels.

 

The 27-year-old Northern Ireland international moves to Ibrox as a free agent following an excellent season at Rugby Park.

 

He won the League Cup with the Ayrshire side and was nominated for Scotland's player of the year.

 

Rangers, who are preparing for life in Division Three, will announce details of the contract at a 13:30 BST media conference.

 

Meanwhile, club owners Sevco Scotland Limited is changing its name to The Rangers Football Club Limited.

 

An extraordinary general meeting of 'oldco' shareholders took place at Ibrox, where procedures were approved to enable the name change.

 

Charles Green's Sevco consortium completed the purchase of the business and assets of Rangers in June after the club was consigned to liquidation following failure to secure a Company Voluntary Arrangement in order to exit administration.

 

Rangers were granted conditional Scottish Football Association membership on Friday night, which will be completed when the formal transfer of 'oldco' Rangers' Scottish Premier League share to Dundee takes place later this week.

 

"The process that took place today is the penultimate piece of the jigsaw that will see The Rangers Football Club move forward, with the transfer of SFA membership being the final piece," Green told the club website.

Pleased with that signing. We could be doing with a bit more creativity. Think he will be a good player for us. Good on him wanting to come to SFL3.

 

No way he'd have been on any more than £2-3k pw at Hibs. So if he gets £7k p/w from us, its a no-brainer.

Plus, if the talk of league reconstruction comes true, it might not be that long till we are back in the top flight. And by then, he's a very good chance of establishing himself as a mainstay of the team.

Wasn't he with Sporting Gijon? Would have bet that they are Spanish too. Should simply check his wiki page ;)

 

He did play with a few Spanish teams before he came to Scotland and looks like he's went back to one he was at before Huesca.

We've been needing a striker for 18 months still not got one, plus we are linked with Kafes as well another non striker.... Pleased with Shiels though.

 

Beattie and Kyle as strikers don't fill me with confidence at all but if they stay fit should be fine in Division 3.
