Turnberry18 3,204 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Delighted this guy is coming I saw him a few years ago and have wanted him at Rangers ever since Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broxi 11,433 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Hearts wanted £3 million and were getting him for halfSeems like good business to me£1.5m is still too much though IMO. Actually, it's not that I think it's too much, it's what I'd expect to have to pay if we were wanting him but in terms of other positions we need and how many players we'd want to bring in it's too much.IMO, going along the basis that cuellar etc haven't signed yet we need, 2 CB, fullback cover, LM, CM and a striker in an ideal world. That's six players and spending £1.5m on Wallace will probably mean we won't get all those. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdzKyle 7,763 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Is he guaranteed a place ahead of Papac? I wouldnt think so.Brought in as backup when we need to improve the first team. Very strange Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottBF2 3,540 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 £1.2million for Wallace, or £1.5million for Goodwillie... even £888k for Miller is a better deal.Never seen the hype in Wallace. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeneralCartmanLee 313 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 The boys a decent signign IMO.....could well be worth 1.5 million... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edmiston Drive 3,846 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Last year of contract...can pick him up for a lot less in Jan or get him on pre-contract, yet we have offered £1.5m for him , well at least he will be fresh as he missed a lot of last seasomn through injury.The Yank playing in Sweden, has it not been said that if they do not take the offer made , we will get him on pre-contract!!Also 1st bid for Wallace 400k and end up £1.5m Hard to understand that one. Clubs will be looking at us, thinking hmmm they are really desperate now, let's crank this up and dundee utd what will that rodent chairman be thinking now?

RangersJamie52 0 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 1 year left on his hearts contract and we're paying 1.2-1.5 million... silly move imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orangeclement 569 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 not happy with the fee myself tbh and i don't really rate Wallace that highly , if the fee was around half the price we think it would've been a good deal for someone in the last year of their deal Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
4MenHadADream 122 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 This is what I feared would happen, I honestly think we have panicked. There is no value in paying 1.5million for an SPL in the last year of his deal Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

H72 265 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 I can't believe Rangers are going to fork out that kind of money for a player like Lee Wallace.There's far better talent out there for the same amount or even much less. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarcheVinny 1,003 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 You can't make this place up sometimes! So doomed for no signings, or panic buying players - just because they play in SPL for a smaller team! Cumbria_blue 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
machine! 15 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 I would like to imagine that it is a structured £1.5 million rather than an upfront fee! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Deacon 54,676 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 the extra £500k must be for them to take kirk B as part of the deal. so it does seem reasonable Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzGers 425 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Wallace is ok probably a little pricey but at least there is movement...would see this as lb and lm cover I hope we still go in for a natural winger... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cstamomusa 3,809 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 People have been moaning all week that we've been bidding too low and having bids rejected. Now we've had a bid accepted we're bidding too high! Well we did have that embarrassing amount of money we were offering for Miller free up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
