Some of the replies on here just show fickle and forgetful football fans can be. If you have a look at the facts I personally feel it is pretty unfair to just jump on the bandwagon and slate all the players who left as being traitors. 1 Majority that left were Rangers fans and probably still are 2 These same players gave their all and won league titles and cups for the club, they also reached a European final (something pretty extraordinary for Scottish football and brilliant for Rangers fans) 3 These same players voluntarily took a massive wage cut to ensure other staff at the club kept their job (I appreciate they get paid a fortune but at the same time you tailor your life to what you earn) 5 These same players did not cause or contribute to the mess that the club is in 6 When Green came in the players were on holidays and due back for preseason within days. Therefore each had to make a decision quickly as training with the newco would automatically transfer contracts. At the same time everyone was sceptical about Green, fans wouldn't buy season tickets (about 250 had been sold) but yet players were expected to commit their futures to a complete uncertainty 7 Anyone really believe that the players who stayed with the club wouldn't have left if they could have got better? Maybe Lee Wallace being an exception 8 With regards Davis it's been officially reported that he had an input to Rangers getting a fee for him, granted it could have been more but it's better than nothing 9 All these people calling them traitors if it was your income possibly going down the pan would you really risk it? 10 With regards the American players, they had an extended holiday after the World Cup which gave them longer to make their decisions before they would be contracted to the newco. During this some of the uncertainty had passed so what makes them any different? If anyone disagrees with any of these points I would like to hear some constructive feedback
