the gunslinger 3,366 Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Perhaps not as many as a dozen but yes we do need more quality than weve got at present I figure 8 minimum and that's risky. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,807 Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Kris Boyd in line for a sensational return to Rangers 22 June 2014 12.05pm. It can be revealed the 30-year-old striker has opened negotiations with the Ibrox hierarchy in the past 24 hours. Light Blues boss Ally McCoist, who had been cool on the deal, has decided to pursue the option of signing the SPL’s all-time leading goalscorer after giving it serious consideration with his backroom staff. Boyd has other options to look at, mainly from Aberdeen, Dundee United or re-signing with current club Kilmarnock. However, it’s understood that the lure of returning to Rangers and helping the club back to the top flight appeals greatly to the hit-man. The Rangers fans are also delighted at the prospect of Boyd wearing their jersey next season. He will sit down with his family and representative in the next 48 hours and discuss in detail all the options open to him. But Rangers appear to be in the driving seat, and talks over terms will continue today and tomorrow. Sayest the Sunday Post We shall see. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 boyd is worth a go if he's not to expensive and given our competition in signing him he shouldn't be. i would say that going into the spl next year he will more or less need to be our worst player if we are to catch celtc. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you just put that line about us needing to spend big in years and/or month to come into your signature. It will spare you repeating it time and again. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zappa 0 Posted June 22, 2014 Author Share Posted June 22, 2014 With the state of our Club's finances it wouldn't really come as a surprise if Dundee Utd offered Boyd more money than us, but you never know. The board might decide that it's prudent to push the boat out a little and sign Boyd to get some more fans renewing their season tickets. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 it's amazing to me that we haven't raised money in advance of when we need it instead of after. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,807 Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 I'm not sure whether there are any immediate monetary issues. Might well be that the board has actually convinced the institutional investors about taking up parts of that 43m shares option, that the Puma and/or 32Red deal kicks in and the like. We can all speculate on that we don't have the money to do this, yet there are only signs to the contrary from the club though, i.e. signing players and looking for a DoF. I'm somewhat hesitant to solely rolling out the spin-doctor carpet though. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
