Bigdave30 8,698 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Some good news for a change, let’s hope he fires some cash in for the next transfer window whenever it gets round to opening. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to school with one, but he was a boggin wee bastard that got called 20 chips cos of the amount of chips he stuff in his face Based on your intimate knowledge of him would you say he's a) probably going to pump mega money into Rangers or b) definitely going to pump mega money into Rangers?

Looks a similar age to me and I could swear I knew a Stuart Gibson back in the day, as my mate went to Castlehead High in Paisley and there was a Stuart Gibson who knocked about with him. If it is the same one I remember he was a massive Robert Prytz fan at the time! Robert Prytz? Despite his videos, I'm convinced that he is gay. Don't reply, just putting a general thought out. I have zero evidence to back it up other than I thought his music sounded gay at the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't answer the question. All I can see there is the total annual spending of each club and I have no idea how they're doing it. Unless the clubs use some other currency that we're not aware of the banks are eventually come looking for it. When will the EPL bubble burst? I don't actually expect you to answer that. Most of us have been saying for years that it was going to happen and it just seems to keep getting bigger and bigger. When offering a club £100m for a single player and they reject it doesn't sound like fucking fantasy then something is seriously wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your positive that will mean we break the financial fair play rules? There's a max deficit allowed which I think is about £25m (euros maybe). My understanding is that depending on how money is put into the club, that can count as earnings so an investment vehicle could allow us lots of headroom to invest.

I’m not doing the research for a throw away comment, but there’s no way we’re paying £35m for players in the summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
