ian1964 10,625 Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 ...........to cut costs elsewhere and keep first-team squad intact 27 Jan 2014 07:16 THE Ibrox midfielder admits he fears top players will be sold to help balance the books but hopes Ally McCoist is allowed to keep building for the future. NICKY LAW has urged Rangers chief executive Graham Wallace to cut costs elsewhere and keep the top-team squad intact. The Ibrox midfielder acknowledges that with financial streamlining going on at the club the final days of this month’s transfer window are a worrying time for the management team and players. Wallace is in the midst of a 120-day review designed to cut costs and develop a financial model to ensure a self-sustaining business. Big decisions have to be made, such as the one that saw finance director Brian Stockbridge leave the club at the weekend, but Law hopes a cash shortfall does not result in a player cull. With just five days left in the transfer window Rangers are vulnerable to any offers coming in for one of their stars with Scotland full-back Lee Wallace the player who could raise the largest sum. But Law believes it would send a bold message to the dressing room if Wallace and the money men on the board find other ways to make their cuts and refuse to sell in order to keep Ally McCoist’s squad on track for their Championship bid next season. The 25-year-old English ace, who joined Rangers from Motherwell last summer, said: “We’re just one of a number of clubs who will be looking forward to the end of the window because we have good players who people will probably be looking at and looking to take. “The manager has said we’re trying to build here rather than lose his best players. Hopefully that will be the case. "We want to keep everyone to help us build towards getting back where we belong. “It would be a positive sign that we’re looking to keep progressing and get back to the top and hopefully that will be what happens.” http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/nicky-law-urges-rangers-chief-3065454 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,563 Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Does anyone actually expect a last day transfer request for Wallace et al? After nigh a whole month of doom-mongering from the media went bye? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
