mongolikecandy 418 Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Over the past two decades many many players earned fortunes playing for Rangers,how many have stepped up to the plate?.I hope I am wrong and missed something,but I don see many making financial pledges to the fighting fund.

spireblue 229 Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Over the past two decades many many players earned fortunes playing for Rangers,how many have stepped up to the plate?.I hope I am wrong and missed something,but I don see many making financial pledges to the fighting fund.was wondering myself recently.how many of our ex players must be millionaires/multi millionaires,even a modest donation of 50 grand each would bring in a lot.just giving back a month of the wages they earned whilst at Ibrox.players such as,Van Bronckhorst,Gattuso,Adam,Cuellar,De Boer brothers,Numan,Mols,Jelavic,Bougherra,Amoruso,Albertz,Klos,Tugay,Hateley,Gough,Wilkins,Lovenkrands,Cannigia,etc etc.All these guys must be very wealthy men.And most profess to be Rangers fans for life.Step up and pay lads eh?

CanadianBacon 2,088 Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 The harsh reality is that most (not all) football players are self-centred, greedy, money-grabbing bastards who wouldn't put a penny in a blind beggar's tin.We've had quite a number who fit that category at our club so don't expect a sudden rush of conscience from them or their ilk.

Turnberry18 3,204 Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Many of them probably don't care. At the end of the day no-one cares more than the fans; these sanctions by the SFA are going to hurt fans most; if Rangers are liquidated it will hurt fans most; when others express sympathy for the management and players they care nothing about the fans. In football, the fans will always pick up the tab; that is the first and only rule in football. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smile 26,600 Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 I think the players and ex managers should be coming out and condemning the SFA as well rather than sit back and watch as our clubs being hung drawn and quartered some of them still hold a lot of influence.But they just don't seem interested or prepared to stick there head up above the parapet.
