Clemdog 39,389 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 I would hate to see Davis, Jelavic or McGregor go but if it is the only way we can balance the books then thats what has to happen. I would like some truth and honesty from Whyte as to exactly what is happening. In saying that Davis & McGregor have been available for transfer for 3 years now and nobody has come in for them, so with them signing new deals an there value going up i would be surprised if anybody made bids for themI've been asking this since we got pumped out of Europe. Tell us the truth Whyte. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCLACHLAN1 49 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 People would see us sell Davis?Frightening Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gogzy 31,195 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 No one to blame but the boss. We now find ourselves in a position where we need to sell to balance the books. Fucking scandalous. Saying that, we are no one man team and if the wee man goes, he goes, its not like he is carrying the team or anything, he is as inconsistant as anyone else in the team. Will be intresting to see what figures we are talking about for "the Golden Child". Im guessing we would be lucky to get £5m. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our costs exceed what we bring in as a business, we will be running at a loss thsi year, how else do you suggest we bring in funds without selling players?

DougieGers 26 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Of course we do, if we dont we go back into debt again. We are on course for a huge loss if we dont sell. Thank Ally for that Stu.Seriously do we? We have just been taken over, debt cleared. Could the new owner put some of the transfer funds into keeping players. Statement of intent, Build towards next year. I dont think were in for that much of a loss unlike your saying. New markets and all that. Time for Whyte to step up and keep our better players Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The owner backed the boss to the tune of 13 new signings and tied up 4 key players long term and in doing so increased our wage bill. The owner has done his job, sadly the manager hasnt.

Spectre 1,663 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Really dont know why people get so worked up, if they want him they will have to pay a very very high price due to 5 year deal. Cant see this happening.They'll have to pay the price Rangers are willing to let him go for. All a long contract does is ensure they can't get him for peanuts but to be honest there's going to be no difference in the price we'd let him go for if he had 3 years left on his contract rather than 5. The power of a long contract gets vastly exaggerated on here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amac9 2,060 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Steven Davis won't be going anywhere!He is happy at Rangers, his family are settled and he has been looking at getting one of his kids into a school. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gas Man 190 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Think if we get a bid of over £6million for any of our players, they'll be gone.Apart from Mcgregor i'm not sure that any of our players are worth more than £6m. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
disgruntled_bear 157 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Apart from Mcgregor i'm not sure that any of our players are worth more than £6m.I'd include McGregor in that, the SPL has took a major dent and that will effect transfer prices for us.

ForeverBlue_Since91 2,895 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 'A Championship club' in for him as well?Though they did call him 'Davies' in that, so I'm tempted to write off its legitimacy for that alone. Having said that, anywhere around £7/8M and I'd sell.There English They always get sstuff about our players wrong. There is a picture of him there, so we know who there talking about even if they can't spell his name right. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForeverBlue_Since91 2,895 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Well he has said he wants to go back to England one day, and that was a couple of years ago now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
