Rangers in for David Goodwillie

Recommended Posts

A few weeks after Bain and Smith say Miller will not be sold for any price in January we accept a bid for Scotlands top scorer for a pathetic £700k, days before the bid being accepted, Walter said if we get a fee for anyone he wont get the money, just the wages, and now fans think we can go sign David Goowillie who will not leave Dundee Utd for less than £1m. How is that going to happen when Walter has already said we have absolutely no money and will not get any incoming fees to spend.

What we will get is Kennys current wage of anything from between £15k to £20k a week. Enough for 3 or 4 SPL provincial players without a fee. So it may only be a loan or 2 we get.

Alot of lies/spin going on around Ibrox and its making me sick. Im pretty sure im not alone.

Any campaigns or frustrations of fans should not be directed at anyone at Lloyds(they have their own agendas and jobs to do) or even Mr Muir(he also has his own job to do and is doing it well), all the anger and frustrations should be directed at David Murray and Martin Bain who put us in this position. Their severe neglect of Rangers FC is a disgrace and both are getting away with all the mistakes, all the messes and all the downsizing because fans are believing the rubbish they read in the papers and think Lloyds are the bad guys, that is a myth, a myth Murray is happy to have peddled. Him and his catalogue model have ruined us, TWICE and they are still here and here we are, fighting to keep our title and stil they are selling our assets at knock down prices. This is Murrays Rangers.

Its disgusting!

:(

Kenny will probably feel obliged to accept the contract on offer from Brum, i just hope he doesnt get any pay off like weve given players before to leave so the club can get a quick buck and i mean buck, not bucks!

Same old crap.

Noone wanted him in the summer! Noone.

He played the form of his life the last 6 months. Not for Rangers thought.

This is just too obvious to have to explain further surely.

ach oh well, we'll just have to wait and se who's hands are lifting the trophy come end of the season, we'll see if this is a good deal or not.

We already had a bid rejected for Goodwillie so there must be funds.

STV understands LA Galaxy and US international forward Edson Buddle has been identified, should Miller switch to Birmingham City.

STV understands Edson Buddle is attracting strong interest from Rangers, as Walter Smith faces up to potentially losing leading goalscorer Kenny Miller to

Birmingham City. The American striker is out of contract at LA Galaxy and would be available on a free transfer if the SPL champions make a move.

Buddle, who spent time training with Birmingham in December, has already visited Rangers' Murray Park

complex and is known to be keen on a move to Europe. At 29, the six-times capped player has the option to sign a new deal at Home Depot Center but is eager to prove himself away from his home country.

With Rangers' leading marksman Miller understood to be considering a £700,000 return to England, this time to

join former international boss Alex McLeish at Birmingham City, the American has been pinpointed as a potential replacement.

The New York native finished as the second top scorer in MLS last season with 17, despite missing a number of games because of his participation at the 2010 World

Cup. At the tournament, Buddle came off the bench in games against England and Algeria but failed to get on the scoresheet.

At 6ft 1, Buddle is an imposing figure and is frequently employed as a target player, owing to his psychical and aerial ability. The striker is also equally adept at feet

however, proving himself as a pacy player with decent finishing ability.

As well as Birmingham City, Stoke City and Sheffield Wednesday are also believed to be keen on his services, with Owls boss Alan Irvine admitting his interest but conceding he may lose out to a bigger club with any bid.

Securing a work permit for Buddle may prove to be a stumbling block for the Ibrox club. Buddle has played

just six times for his national team since he earned his first cap back in 2003 and is likely to see his future international prospects dry up, as manager Bob Bradley looks to young talent such as Teal Bunbery and Juan Agudero for the 2014 World Cup, by which time Buddle will be 33.

Buddle's last cap came in an international friendly against Brazil in August 2010 but he has featured in just two of his country's 25 competitive games in the last two years, falling well short of the 75 per cent requirement to gain permission to play in the UK.

If Rangers press ahead with the signing, they will have to argue Buddle's case to an SFA work permit appeal board, as they did when Croatian forward Nikica Jelavic signed in the summer.

Buddle started his professional career in 2000 with PDL side Long Island Rough Riders, before earning a ticket into the MLS with Columbus Crew a year later.

Short spells at New York Red Bulls and Toronto followed before his move to LA Galaxy in 2007, where he has scored 42 of his total 90 league goals in 231 regular

season appearances.

LA Galaxy have already moved to strengthen their striking options in the MLS off-season, having recruited former New York Red Bulls and Aston Villa striker Juan Pablo Angel through the league's re-entry draft before

Christmas.

BUDDLE INTERESTING RANGERS

he's shite.

The £500k Houston was on about? Lower than the £600k or 700k we will get for Miller. Utd wont sell him for lower than £1m.

The point of my post was, were a mess and we are being lied to on a daily basis, blatant lies from the club were ploughing money into.

But the bid was made before Miller. So that should mean that we have 500k PLUS 700k for miller = £1.2million

Simples.

I wonder how much scouting we did for Buddle

"Celtic want him on trial......ok lets sign him"

Regardless of how bad things are. i would like to believe it is them rather than us who see things that way

Remember strapon signing any player who had even walked past Ibrox couple of years ago, pressley et al. things will never be that bad i hope. we have standards after all!
