*Manticore* 1,893 Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 big eck and plg brought teams over .just wondering why walter has never brought the first team over in all his time in chargeAs has been said, he did in his first spell.In his second he has had 4 pre seasons if we include the forthcoming one.We had to qualify for the CL in 2 of those, limiting our options, this one we're going to Australia, which again cuts the options.I don't know what factors have been at play but where we go pre season is largely decided based on what offers we get - do you know what offers we've had from Norn Irn in the period in question?

j1mgg 3,766 Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 I would guess that more recently it is all about money and quality of opposition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amac9 2,060 Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 I thought the Linfield v Rangers matches at Windsor got banned because there was too much sectarianism? I have been to 3 games between Linfield and Rangers at Windsor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmrfc1873 48 Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 money talks in football, if Rangers will get bumper fees for playing in NI, they will go.Aye, this . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby 41 Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 I think NI has done ok - We have seen some very decent players come over, all be it not alaways a full top 11 - but I wouldnt let a Rangers team play the numpties of the Irish League on a crap pitch for the sake of a couple of ££'s with nothing at stake.much better ways to prepare for a new season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
