The c.£9m for players was known about. See the Accounts, note 15 Creditors - the amount shown under "Trade creditors" was £8.637m. In addition, some or all of the £0.5m shown in note 27 may have become due if certain players had reached so many games etc. Also, AJ made mention of these trade creditors at the AGM (I seem to recall him saying about £7m had been paid, but I'm happy for someone with a less alcohol-damaged memory to correct me). So no surprises. http://home.rangersmedia.co.uk/accounts/2009.pdf In that case, maybe I should change that to "I hadnt heard about until yesterday" If you dont mind, Ive got a wee question. I read on gersnet an article by Bluedell saying that according to the accounts we took in $678,000 in transfers. Does that mean we sold Barry and Charlie Adam for a combined total of 678,000 or is there another interpretation possible (ie. those payments will be in instalments)? Im stunned if thats all we made from those transfers.
