Why There Were Not More Signings


Recommended Posts

Green said the hunt for players had been held up as both he and manager Ally McCoist had faced Scottish Football Association disciplinary hearings on Thursday.

"Alistair and I have, unfortunately, spent six hours in Hampden for the wrong reasons, when what we ought to have been doing is speaking to agents and speaking to players," he said.

Green also claimed the club were being hampered in making signings by players who rejected a move to the relaunched Rangers still being included in their squad list with the SFA.

A consortium led by Green reformed Rangers after the previous incarnation could not be saved from liquidation but a number of players refused to have their contracts transferred.

Rangers are seeking compensation for five of these players.

"Ahead of this transfer ban being put in place, we still have the ludicracy of not being able to sign the number of players we'd like to bring in, because the players who walked out on their contract are still included in our quota," added Green.

"We're only allowed 22 players over the age of 21, and five of those spaces are being filled by people like Steven Naismith, who played for Everton against Manchester Utd last Monday. How crazy is that?"

feeble excuses. we don't have 22 players over 21 and we have had weeks to sign players.

 

No idea why you're attacking Green yet again, you said yourself Ally should be doing much better with what he's got, that was before adding one of the most talented wingers in Scotland.

correct. what a shambolic state of affairs. green and mccoist had plenty time to get what we needed. bomber told us season ticket money would not be reinvested and he was mocked for it. looks like he was right all along.

 

did we only find out yesterday those 5 players are still registered with the SFA? if so, why the hell did we wait so late to find that out?

I'm simply calling feeble excuses feeble.

 

for a start we have 14 players over 21 so that's no excuse. 6hrs lost out of a month isn't much better.

You cannot be serious with this?
