5cotland 71 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 We are Rangers FC, the worlds most successfull team. We have one of the largest followings out of any team in the world. We used to be able to compete in europe and in the transfer market but now we cant even offer a top Championship goalscoring midfielder £18-£20k a week. This shows how times have changed for this club, it doesnt help when you have someone like martin bain represent the club. We struggle to sign any players because of money but yet we are offering more money thats required for a players services. Seriously?We need to wake up big time and so does the bank. The tims are will to offer £20k a week to let a player warm the bench, we need to compete with teams by being able to offer players £20k a week. We will get money from a charlie adam transfer and we will most likely free up wages at the end of the season. The banks need to let the club breathe and be able to have more of a say on finances because if we dont we will not compete for anything and we will sink. BIGTIME!The bank has to understand:No money for players=no improved contracts for current team members=tiny squad=no chance of winning league=no champions league=losing a lot of money=debt building up=rangers fc no moreTimes are very bad and we cannot afford to fail in winning the league. The bank needs to understand that there controlling of the club is making us worse instead of better. We need serious financial help.NOW!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wearethemighty 186 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 I think everyone needs to calm down! We were supposedly skint during the summer and managed to spend almost 6M on new faces. Ive a wee sneeky feeling we'll sign Commons AND another couple of players. Be patient theres a few days of this window still to go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orangeclement 572 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 yeah lets go back to offering stupidf amounts of money t players that aren't worth half that wages to have them warming the bench , thats a great idea to sort out our troubles ...

outlaw69uk 123 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 That's what happens when you chase the Champions League dream - and the majority of us were happy to go along for the ride.Ambition is a bad thing? The problem with this point is, the "Champions League dream" is something that brings a serious, required amount of money into the club, therefore is not a dream, but a reality we need.Said it before, all this paranoia about the finances, is just that. We arent in bad shape, however, something untoward is going on. We are the only area in mints empire turning a profit. So, a profitable club, with a large turnover, is not in bad shape. Easily solved by being bought. I dont, however, think mint wants to do that, for the reason I just gave.Fairly obvious that he certainly doesnt have "our best interests" at heart.

blueben_d 40 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 We can't spend money we dont have, we can't afford to offer every player 20k a week.Look on the bright side at this rate our debt will be gone in no time... Then Murray can actually get his money back in a sale. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about all our other professionals?which others?i just threw up the ones that have played a decent amount and took clements as well. we will have money from the sales of the players in there last year to spend as well. but being realistic its a poor situation for a new manager to walk into. as i said last night this is the worst celtc team in decades.
