pcbear 10,913 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 One thing that we can't forget is that Boyd's agent Mark "ex-celtc" Donaghy is likely to be DESPERATE for Boydy to secure a move, he won't give a shit about any sentiment or Boyd's love for the club, and will be bending over backwards to Kris into the Premiership. I'd expect Donaghy would set these meetings up and twist Boyd's arm to go - it doesnt mean Kris has set his heart on a move away. Assuming there ever was a meeting that is. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- He's at Rangers, he'll have guys like Ally McCoist, Ian Durrant, Walter Smith, Kenny Miller, Lee McCulloch, Steven Davis....all wanting him to stay. McCoist, Smith and Miller have already said so. I'm sure these guy's will have more pulling power than Mark Donaghy! If he want's to stay, he'll sign a new deal, if he doesn't, then he will leave, and I doubt it will come down to his agent in the end. If he's in it for the money, then he's just another footballer who doesn't really give a shit about playing for the club he loves, and winning trophies, because both Birmingham and Aston Villa will do fuck all in the league, domestic cups and in Europe, and the way those two sides set up, he'll probably spent the majority of time on the bench! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Agree with all of that, theres many years of dyed in the wool bears bending his ear inside Ibrox, my opinion for what its worth is that Kris Boyd is a big home loving boy who likes the security blanket of family/fans round him, nothing wrong with ambition to prove yourself elsewhere, but equally if you like home comforts and surroundings thats also fine. Yes the money is better but 18k a weeks not exactly peanuts either, cup winner or bench warmer?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
footman 0 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 One of the critisisms we heard about Barry BEFORE he left was that he had no ambition if he wanted to stay with Rangers, ditto Players like Paul McStay. Now I would hate for Boyd to leave but with the money on offer and a week in week out higher quality in the EPL you could see why he might decide to go. If he stays I will be estatic but if he leaves I will wish him well and hope he does exceptional at wherever he goes. Has anyone considered that Boyd may leave not only for the positive reasons already mentioned ie playing in a better league, better money etc etc etc, but that he fears his prospects will diminish playing in a team that God forbid may not win the league and the consequences that would unfold, such as maybe large scale selling off of our best players. and the uncertainty of events unfolding after this. You cant blame him for considering his position first, as he may feel the management have not shown him the loyalty they expect from him until very recently.

You cant blame him for considering his position first, as he may feel the management have not shown him the loyalty they expect from him until very recently. To be fair mate, Kris had to up his game. I don't think it's a case of the management not being loyal. They must have been pushing him to become to the player we have seen recently --- because they believed in him. As for the poster above who says Kris has won all he can with The Rangers. I say NO... We still have next year's CL campaign! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AGM_72 3,637 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 The guy himself has said he's gutted when he misses out on the Champions League games at the club. Surely now, with the increased wages on the table, he will realise that he is now integral to the team and one of the first players on the managements team sheet. Many fans, rightly or wrongly, would have had that as the case anyway, even before he upped his overall game. With that in mind, surely he must realise he will more than likely feature much more in the CL? I hope he is just evaluating all his options. When you weight up the pros and cons logically, I'd still suggest we come out on top of the two moves being touted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which would be the 2nd?? it shut's on the 1st at 5 pm It was the 2nd last year. Think it was because of the bad weather, I remember watching SSN all day that day In the morning Arshavin was in London going to sign for Arsenal, lunchtime talks had broken down and he was going back to Russia, afternoon he was away back to the Emirates to sign. I really hope Boyd stays at Rangers, but I guess we'll see how much of a Rangers man he really is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muff 245 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 If Boyd goes, Boyd goes. Someone has to - we can't afford not to get short of a player. It's football - he'll be replaced. Not this season we won't, meaning we would go into the buisness end of the season without a goalscorer! Kyle Lafferty is not a goalscorer, although he has been scoring, neither is Kenny Miller. Nacho Novo, and Steven Naismith are far too injury prone which would leave us with John Fleck. We have seen in the short games without Boyd, that we struggle to score goals, and although we create some chances, fail to put the ball in the back of the net. Selling any of our better/important players at this stage of the season is absolutely ridiculous, especially when we are not going to replace them. Kris Boyd guarantees goals, and we have seen a different all round player over the last three months. That's if he goes!? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

trueblue79 0 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 This is ridiculous------ Point 1. Surely he wouldn't leave us on a Pre-contract given our money situation if he is a Rangers man (given the fact that he gave Kilmarnock a slice of the fee when he joined us) Point 2. He has it easy up here, he is adored the fans and 18k a week to score loads a goals and get your chance in the champions league. Point 3. If he leaves then fine, but he will not make it in the Premiership. Its upto him but he is making a bad decision going to the premiership, money is not everything. I can see him lasting 2 nextjan and him wanting 2 come back 2 us and i hope we wouldn't take him because the way he has treated us through this whole thing just talking pish Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
papaguy51 912 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I remember reading about Jorg Albertz's last contact with us. David Murray said he'd never seen a contract negotiation like it. Without an agent, Albertz walked into the room, sat down, and agreed a deal in under five minutes. What a fucking man Why can't it always be like that?

GersDude90 1 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Just because Boyd loves Rangers it doesn't mean he isn't allowed to explore all options open to him. If Aston Villa are really interested, a club going well in a league much stronger than ours, why shouldnt he be allowed to at least listen to what they have to say? He'd be daft not too. I'm pretty confident he'll stay, he's just having a look at all options. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boab 73 Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Inserting this in here: By ANDY DEVLIN Published: 22 Jan 2010 Kris Boyd won't walk out on Rangers' bid for two-in-a-row. As SunSport revealed yesterday, the Gers ace has held talks with Aston Villa and Birmingham as he ponders a move to the Premier League. But he WON'T be quitting his boyhood heroes in the January transfer window. Instead Boyd will use the summer to consider all his options before committing to the most important contract of his career. The striker, 26, is in the form of his life with a host of clubs chasing his signature. A three-year deal worth £18,000-a-week is on the table at Ibrox but Villa, Birmingham, Newcastle and Middlesbrough are all keen on the SPL record scorer. Villa boss Martin O'Neill rolled out the red carpet for Boyd on Wednesday night and hopes that will be enough to secure the hitman on a pre-contract agreement. But Boyd won't be rushed. He's sidelined at the moment as he recovers following a hernia op and isn't expected to return until mid-February. O'Neill is a long-time admirer of Boyd and is keen to have him on board for the start of next season. But city rivals Birmingham are still very much in the race for the striker. Blues boss Alex McLeish, who took Boyd to Ibrox in January 2006, spoke to him on Monday before taking his squad off to Malta. It's understood he will talk to him again on his return from Birmingham's winter training camp. Boyd has always maintained he'd like to remain at Gers, but the lure of England might now be too much to resist. Boyd's 19 SPL goals have helped Gers go nine points clear at the top of the table. http://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/scotsol/ho...-for-title.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluenose_72 198 Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Can we really afford to risk losing him for nothing? I'd much rather cash in now and get around £1m for him than lose him at the end of the season for nothing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
