Yes but the board are thinking next season now and may have better players lined up. I am not saying you are wrong but it could be the board have 3 Bruno Alves's lined up. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian1964 10,720 Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 Disappointed with this, I am a big fan of Bates. Good luck to the lad, just wish we could have kept him. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many times do you shell out in the region of 20K p/wk for experience/better players only to be burnt by it .......instead of paying a promising youngster say 5K. Alves, Kranjcar, Barton, Pena, Rossiter, etc. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rbr 1,256 Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 Better players than him have left , good luck young man , but the Rangers move onwards 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaffer 1,665 Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 Good luck to him, but I think this is good for him and good for us. He isn't good enough to be in our first eleven. Unfortunately he was the best of a bad bunch this season but we wouldn't normally tolerate someone of that quality in our central defence and I fully expect we will recruit well into that position in this summer. If the rumours are true that he was looking for a longer contract, I don't blame him, but I'm so glad we didn't do it. He's got a lot to prove before we could afford to give him a contract longer than a couple of years. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what we have gotten from him vs what we have gotten from the, reputedly 40k a week Alves, is markedly different.... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
