The Monk 3,208 Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 As long as it's him with one other striker (with pace) then I'm pretty happy, think if he did sign it would be pretty unlikely for us to sign Boyd now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senna 735 Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 The thought of Francisco Sandaza signing for Rangers gutts me. Honestly, it does. I just don't rate the boy. He had one half-decent season for Valencia's reserves, couldn't break into the Dundee United team, struggled in League One with Brighton and has had a decent six months with St Johnstone.I might have to adjust my expectation levels, but is that the standard we're at now? If Sandaza pulls on the Rangers jersey, I'll be behind him, 110%, but I thought and hoped that we were a wee bit better than that.I remember loads of us frothing at the signing of Jerome Rothen, myself completely included and look how that turned out.Remember what was said about Aluko (couldn't get a game for LOLberdeen), Bocanegra (mediocre) and Wallace (waste of money), though I'm not saying you necessarily said these things.

Amac9 2,060 Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 A decent enough player who is prone to the odd injury though.Could be a decent signing but I don't think he is good enough to be starting every week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ran the show almost when Saints drew with us.Shite like Paul McGowan and Gary Harkins have also ran the show against us this season, its not exactly hard. Our midfield has been a shambles for some time. As much as Davis has been off form and Edu is average, they are still better than Davidson, by some distance. He is not the kind of midfielder we need, not with Hutton, Ness, McKay, McCulloch, Bedoya, McCabe and Papac all being *able to play there.*I use the term able to very loosely. We have enough passengers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If were getting this standard of player then it should be dropped in price.I am afraid the current price of season tickets doesnt even cover our current squad. Dont blame me, dont blame the owner, blame the men who scouted out the deadwood and built the lop sided mediocre squad. 34/35 players we had before TKB left, 3 are out on loan leaving a choice 30/31 players to pick from for every match. We cant afford such a big squad. Can you imagine the money we could free up had we been able to get rid of the guys getting paid for fuck all in return?Not to mention we need European football every year to break even. Do we have that this year? Why not? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If were getting this standard of player then it should be dropped in price.That's a stupid suggestion that would only lead to further lowering the standard of player we are able to attract.Would you be happy to be £100 better off each season but see us only able to go for a lower quality of player. It worries me that some of our fans would even contemplate that! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueSuedeSambas 54,419 Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Sandaza's agent confirmed that he had been offered a new deal, but he was rejecting it, about three days ago. Hardly a ground breaking or earthe shattering development tbh. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
