derekweir29 505 Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 His Wiki Just noticed somebody's edithttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Matav%C5%BEOn 13 March 2009 Matavž scored his first goal in the Eredivisie in a 2–0 victory over Roda JC.[4] Soon he began scoring for Groningen on regular basis in all competitions. On 24 February 2010 Matavž extended his contract with club until 2012.[5] no surrender Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis 1,011 Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 He would have to change his first name. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muff 245 Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 He is rapid going by this showing. Groningen's main man, their top goalscorer, contracted for a few years yet, club doing well in the Eredivise, clubs sniffing about him... I don't see this sort of player going out on loan, or on the cheap - unless Groningen are in financial trouble? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I just find it hard to believe that they would just let a striker -that they think is good enough to start up top against one of the best teams in the league - just leave on loan ...unless we have said we will pay such n such a fee in the summer for um Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
govanbluenose 2 Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Maybe the fact that he would obviously have a significant sell on value may loosen the purse strings Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Right_To_Censor 1,951 Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 i'm pretty much confident we wont be getting him, its just a bunch of rumors that some tube made up to get his jollys. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burnbankblue 22 Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 A club wont loan out their star player, and we have no money to buy according to Walter so all things considered this is a non starter! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFC55 110,262 Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Aye buba your 100% correct. Some dutch guys thought lets start a rumour Rangers want Matavz. Then the Gronigen cheif exec or whatever he is decided he too would join in the fun and say that us being in for him is affecting his mindset.Its a huge conspiracy if you ask me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBloubellsAreBlouie 209 Posted January 23, 2011 Author Share Posted January 23, 2011 He is rapid going by this showing. Groningen's main man, their top goalscorer, contracted for a few years yet, club doing well in the Eredivise, clubs sniffing about him... I don't see this sort of player going out on loan, or on the cheap - unless Groningen are in financial trouble?Apparently they're not.Picked this up from one of their fans.......23 Jan 2011 11:18:44We are a fan site for Groningen FC and we know about the interest of Rangers for Slovenian striker Tim Matavz.Matavz will only be sold and won't go out on loan to Rangers, as someone mentioned.Someone said as he was linked to Newcastle and Juventus as well and that we're desperate to sell him, but this is not true at all. His contract runs to the summer of 2013, which means a buying club needs to pay serious money. We don't need to sell at the moment as Groningen FC is only one of the four or five clubs in the Dutch league that is healthy when the finances are concerned.He is also been linked to other Italian clubs Palermo and Lazio Roma and Matavz himself has often said he wants to continue his career in Italy.Lastly, someone said the Dutch newspapers are full with news covering this, but that is absolutely not true. There is very little news on him the past few days.However, if you will sign him, you're getting a real striker. He's always looking to score goals, lethal in the box. It wouldn't be a bad choice to get him, though I hope you'll come back in summer and don't buy him in the winter window.Hope this helps. Take care, FCG Online.That went doon like a pork pie at a jews weddin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest therabbitt Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 The 'Scottish media' reporting it according to the Dutch. It's not their sources that are bringing the news, only reporting what is apparently happening over here - which is nothing.Looks like a non-starter to be honest.

Muff 245 Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 scored again todayI watched about 60 minutes of the game whilst the QPR games was on. Before that, only really seen him on ESPN now and again - a lot of the time highlight's and he looks a good player. Plenty pace, a nice touch, holds the ball up well, and obviously knmows where the goal is. He's not exactly big built, but he had no problem holding off Oneywu today.There is a lad who plays just behind him, Dusan Tadic, and what a player he looks!
