TunnyLoyal 1,136 Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 I would deffinetly not pay a penny more for lafferty. R.e. davis, i was realy impressed in a few games, exspecially werder bremen away with him but he did have a few holwers also. I dnt know if i would pay more than 3mil for him either. thinks thats a bit steep. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

His form dropped quicker than Cousin's and it was like playing with a man short sometimes. He got Broadfoot into a lot of bother sometimes with really poor passing. I'd rather see Fleck playing.

canadablue 0 Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 I am really feeling sorry for Davis, if its his boyhood team, then Fulham should take that into consideration. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TannochsideBear 355 Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 2 things here. 1. Since when has the Daily Record started reporting facts during the silly season instead of just making it up as they go along? 2. If it by some fluke turns out to be true, I am a happy bear.

BillyBoyBlue 0 Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 I dont mind the Lafferty deal falling through although if it happens at a good price i think he will do ok in the long run. Davis would be a good addition as a squad player but not for more than £3 mil. He is a good player but has to play through the middle rather as a winger. And with Thomsons and Fergy as the best partnership it could be a waste of time and money! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do however expect the deal to go through later this afternoon. This is so predictable. As I stated yesterday on here, Gow will not move until Bain pays him a lot of money. He knows Bain's previous in doing this, and how much of an amatuer negotiator he is, and is just coming back giving it the "i'm not sure, I want to stay and fight for my place. £250K, thanks Martin seeya" Not a criticism of the player, but he should be told to accept the offer or we will command a fee of £750K for any other interested clubs (which will make a move away almost impossible), or he can stay in the stiffs. It is his career after all. Time to play hardball here. We cannot make the same mistake as with Bob Malcolm. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seem to remember Anthony Stokes, after leaving Falkirk, saying that he owed the majority of his goal tally to the work of Alan Gow. Gow just hasn't been given a chance at Ibrox. You don't become a bad player overnight unless it's through injury. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TannochsideBear 355 Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 What would you do if your boss told you that you had to move to Burnley to do your job? As I am my own boss, I would tell him to stick it In reality, a footballer is not a normal job, and they have fixed term contracts and transfer fees meaning that they cant just give 1 months notice and leave (unless you are Webster). Therefore they cannot be "told" to go anywhere to do their job. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he can pay £2M for Beattie, we have a chance of £2M for Gow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should not get it, but he is entitled to ask. I have my doubts as to wether we have the CEO in place to play this game properly though. It is not his greatest strength.

Boab 73 Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 GOW GTF!!! I actually think you are the one that needs to get a grip and others having a go at Gow for what might seem as if he's stalling. Should he not be allowed to go down to the Club and see it? Should he not be allowed to go down to the Club and meet the Chairman and the Manager? Should he not be allowed to go down to the Club and actually discuss wages? Should he not be allowed to go discuss this move with friends and family and friends? It seems to me that because Lafferty has agreed, actually us doing a deal quickly for a change, Gow should roll over according to some and accept a fiver a week. Never mind the rest of the issues among Gow's career right now and the past or if he's good or not, a lot of people are being very unfair IMO. He hasn't said no publicly - the Rangers site said ' Discussions between Alan Gow and Burnley are ongoing. http://www.rangers.premiumtv.co.uk/page/Ne...1330134,00.html There's f*ck all wrong with that...as I've said.
