Bobby Hume 12,983 Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 It was so much easier in the 50's/60's .... when you could not only pronounce the names of the players in Scottish teams .... but you had a fair idea of how to spell their names as well. Xenophobia back then was not to be sniffed at .... Blumhoilann 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made me feel old as fuck tbh. Had this at work too haha. Players like Lizarazu, Sagnol, Cameronesi, Tomasson, Santa Cruz, Tristan etc. Boys in there early 20s or late teens don't know them.

Leeds_Bear 8,102 Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/1079301/Rangers-transfer-news-Glen-Kamara-Dundee Rangers transfer news: Rangers make Glen Kamara offer to bring transfer forward Rangers have offered Dundee £50,000 to take Glen Kamara to Ibrox before the transfer window closes on Thursday. By SCOTT BURNS PUBLISHED: 08:35, Tue, Jan 29, 2019 | UPDATED: 08:41, Tue, Jan 29, 2019 The midfielder, 23, is already committed to joining Steven Gerrard’s team this summer after signing a pre-contract agreement, but the Light Blues hope their cash incentive can get him in the door this week. Dundee boss Jim McIntyre has admitted it would be in all parties’ best interests if Finland international Kamara moved this month. McIntyre could use the fee to freshen up his squad as he bids to get them out of the Premiership relegation zone. Rangers are unlikely to go much higher than £50,000 and are prepared to wait until the end of the season to get their man if it is not accepted. Gerrard had initially tried to do a loan swap for Kamara but a deal couldn’t be agreed. Dundee turned down several options and were then knocked back when they asked about Ross McCrorie’s availability. Kamara, who moved to Dens Park from Arsenal two seasons ago, has not been in the Dark Blues’ match-day squad for any of their three games this year. Alfredo Morelos, meanwhile, is unlikely to leave Ibrox this month, despite being an £8million target for Nice. The French club’s valuation is well below what Gers would be prepared to accept for their top scorer, who is also being monitored by clubs in England.

Blueshoff 11,750 Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Why pay 50k for Kamara to come early when we could pull back Docherty for free? Is there that much difference in the two? Especially if it is to sit on the bench. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming he wouldn't be first choice every week. Think just cos the Dundee boss said it's in everyone's best interest to move him early, don't think he's even playing every week at Dundee. Let's him come to us get integrated into the team and system, act as cover if needed and ready to go straight away for next season. Only reasoning I can think of for bringing him early. Personally I don't think he needed just now Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
