ascender 352 Posted June 16, 2008 Author Share Posted June 16, 2008 Its definitely silly season, so I have no problem with the various rumours going around, particularly as many will come to nothing except maybe getting players at other clubs improved contracts. I kind of wish I could just block out all the news feeds and stuff until the start of the season though as its already getting tiresome. Regardless of who we sign, its funny to hear lots of fans complaining about the sort of players we're being linked with. While I can kind of see the point that only signing players from other SPL clubs isn't the answer, if you think back to the season just past, lots of these crap SPL players often played our lot of the park at times. So they can't be as bad as we like to think can they? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ascender 352 Posted June 16, 2008 Author Share Posted June 16, 2008 BBC Scotland reckon we've now bid 3M for Lafferty. So depending on how things go, we'll line up one of two ways next season. _________________McGregor_______________ Broadfoot______Weir_____Cuellar_______Papac Whittaker_____Webster______Wilkie_____Smith _____________Reynolds______Cousin_________ or _________________McGregor_________________ Broadfoot______Boyd________Fleck_______Miller Novo______Velicka_________Lafferty______Buffel _____________Darcheville______Cousin_________ 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whosthedado 1,737 Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Take it your tongue's firmly in your cheek here? What the hell is Wilkie doing there? And we were linked with Klasnic who I've just seen play brilliantly tonight - now you're talking! How many more strikers do we need though? We're going to struggle to get rid of Cousin at this rate, that leaves Cousin Darcheville Boyd Novo Velicka Miller. Surely we don't need Klasnic as well unless three of the aforementioned are sold 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ascender 352 Posted June 16, 2008 Author Share Posted June 16, 2008 Our improved Lafferty bid apparently includes Gow going in exchange. If Cousin & JCD go, then maybe we don't have too many strikers assuming we're going to be playing a 4-4-2 in domestic games. Novo still seems to make more of an impact from the right side and Naismith is out for months yet, so maybe there's method to Wattie's madness after all. That would give us two from: Boyd Velicka Lafferty Miller Even though Fulham have pulled out of the Cousin deal, I'd have thought his agent will find him a club somewhere so that he gets his cut from it. Money for JCD would be too good to turn down IMO as his hamstrings are clearly shot and that's no use when you're that sort of a player. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

craig 5,199 Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Apparently we have now signed Lafferty too for 3 mill plus Gow From http://www.rangersloyal.co.uk/newsnow/0608/article2.html Tonight Rangers secured another striker in the form of Northern Irish striker Kyle Lafferty from Burnely. Rangers have fought off competition from Wolves and Celtic for his signature. The fee is rumoured to be close to �£3m as well as a Alan Gow heading the other way 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beattie 0 Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Jesus Christ... I give up, lads. 'Good sources' have been saying we had �£6m to spend.. if that's to be believed then it's ALL been used on these 3? Fuck right off, if that's the case. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
juffery 0 Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 On the officail site that Velicka has signed and will join up on 14th of July. I'm happy about this one. http://www.rangers.premiumtv.co.uk/page/News/NewsDetail/0,,5~1329487,00.html Nothing official about Lafferty. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
