bruceybalboa 5 Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 With Shagger signing a six year deal he will be here till he is 35.He has been at the club for most of his career with the exception of a loan spell at Dunfermline iirc.I wonder when he will qualify for a testimonial match if he sees out his full deal (hopefully!). Would be just what he deserves after showing loyalty to Rangers not to mention the quality of his performances. I think he would be the first and last one in a while to get a testimonial, as they seem non existent these days. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordo 33 Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Usually after 10 years you get one, not always. I'm sure he'll get one eventually. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBagalag 722 Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 That's a good shout, think he would deserve one for the loyalty he has shown. Yes, he is picking up a good wage, but he probably could have doubled it had he decided to leave the club. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

caseyjones 3,009 Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 While he should be rewarded for his loyalty, no big club player needs a testimonial nowadays. They are earning far more in comparison to their predecessors and so don't need the financial boost. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewaj3 1,446 Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Tell you what he deserves it outstanding loyalty, the way he's gone about his business is outstanding, he and stevie naismith signed contracts no fuss, no hassle just signed and sealed not even bothered about what other teams were sniffing around. I'm not a big fan of testimonials anymore (players earn enough) but if anyone deserves one its Mcgregor.If anyone does want mcgregor I hope the club say they'll only listen to offers of £8mill plus and i'd have said more had he not been 29!! I dont think fans in England rate him that highly... which suits us to a tee as we know we have a top drawer keeper, hopefully for the next 6 years!

Dont get the logic myself. If he's a true Rangers man then he could have a game and lets us all in for free and pay the 100k fee the opposition wants from the millions he has earned from the fans... just a thought Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't mean because a player has signed a new 6 year deal, he will be here for 6 years. It just helps us get more money for him, if a another club want him.
