Watson94 9 Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Am i the only one thats worried about Ally just going crazy with the money and buying a lot of players like Celtic have in the past few years ? Id like to keep the majority of the same team here and not spend too much, Our team has jelled so much in the past two years and i wouldnt like to see us lose that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
50ShadesofBlue 667 Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 I don't see him going crazy. Our squad is short so he'll fill the gaps and bring in some first teamers and that will be that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryHurlock 21 Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 I severely doubt Ally will just go gung-ho with the cash, he will have thought out his list of players to track for a good while now, hopefully they come good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rab_Rangers 38 Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Our first team won't change that much bar the defence I would think and maybe a different striker to play up with Jelavic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id like to keep the majority of the same team here and not spend too much, Our team has jelled so much in the past two years and i wouldnt like to see us lose that Why cant we keep the players we have and add some new ones? Our squad is too small especially with the loan players leaving we need to buy some new players. I know what you mean tho. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Straight-Edge-Loyal 6,699 Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 My biggest worry is because were no longer in debt people seem to think we have to be signing superstars that's the biggest problem in my eyes that well spend all our money in one year which doesn't bode well for the future when we have only just been taken over ending up in debt again would be a terrible thing to happen.

LegendofCoop 17,490 Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Am i the only one thats worried about Ally just going crazy with the money In a word. Yes.In a few other words, McCoist has seen first hand what damage reckless spending can do, and what can be achieved with a thread bare squad! He'll know that being prudent will reap the biggest reward in the long term. I have no worries on that score! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NessFTW 40 Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 we have the spine of our team, just need few younger guys and maybe 2 good playersAgreed about us having a good spine to the team.3 squad players and 3 to compete for the first 11 would do me.

BritishBear 34 Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Surely if one thing this season shows, quality over quantity has triumphed.Having a small squad helps with morale, cohesion etc etc. The young players know they have a chance also, meaning they hopefully work harder.Only thing different is that we won't have to sell our best players in January rather than lose them for nothing.If Boogie leaves then I would really like to see 3 quality CBs, because no doubt we have been lucky given the lack of cover in that position.Including Weiss and Bartley we need about 8 players.

Togs 179 Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Ally McCoist might be taking the hot seat. But Walter will never be more than a phonecall away from Ally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
roidrager 10 Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Agreed about us having a good spine to the team.3 squad players and 3 to compete for the first 11 would do me.Strong unit with them fighting for each other, we dont need drastic actions, i am impressed with the youth we got and we shouldnt just move them to the bench in order to settle in new faces.

Del 667 Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 The worst part about the takeover is half the rockets on here thinking we can sign premiership players and spending 30k+ a week on wages.I regards to the OP, we cant afford to blow any of the money because IMO we need at least 6 players next season and if we are only getting £10m with wages, signing on fees, agents fees etc, it doesnt leave a lot of room for error.People have said that the takeover makes it easier for Ally, i would say that it might have made it a little bit harder for him personally but for Rangers our outlook is a lot better.I dont envy him having to sign so many players on a relatively small budget.

SirWalterSmithLegend 206 Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 No chance will he be going transfer crazy. It will be well thought out and what Walter has taught him, quality over quantity. We have many mistakes to learn from our past and from Celtic too. Allys not daft. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritishBear 34 Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 We could and probably should be losing 4 defenders, Weir, Bougherra, Papac and Foster.Personally I would keep Papac because that money needs spent elsewhere first, I would rather punt Broadfoot.In terms of defenders that leaves us with Whittaker and Broadfoot, maybe add in McCulloch, but the thought of us going into any game with either Broadfoot or McCulloch at CB fills me with dread.

4MenHadADream 122 Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 The fact that Ally has been in and around this team for the last few years means that he won't be getting rid of many or indeed any of them unless they choose to leave. He has also been part of the amazing team spirit of the last few years, which has been 90% responsible for the successes of the past 3 years, he would be stupid to go and break any of that up, as it still represents his major hope at success, with Walter leaving this summer and a new owner on board Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
