BEARGER 339 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Pinched from another forum<p> GOAL machine Nicky Clark today revealed he is set to sign a three-year deal with boyhood heroes Rangers next week. Nicky Clark says he has verbal agreement with Ally McCoist The 21-year-old, voted PFA Division Two player of the year after scoring 41 goals in all competitions for Queen of the South, has reached a verbal agreement with Ally McCoist on his dream move to Ibrox. And Clark, son of former Gers star Sandy, believes he can better this term's record strike tally. He said: "I have met Ally already and we talked over his plans and it's exciting to be in them. I am hoping to meet with him again at Ibrox next week and hopefully get the deal signed and realise my dream of becoming a Rangers player for the next few seasons. "It is something I have always dreamed of and to have met Ally in the first instance was just really flattering, but it was hard to take in that he wanted me to come to the club I have supported all my life. "I have had a great season at Queen of the South and, at 21, I never stopped hoping that maybe I had done enough to get on Ally's radar. "To have actually spoken to him and heard his plans was massive, but I it will only really sink in when I sign on the dotted line. "I may have scored over 40 goals for Queens this season, but I believe I could score even more for Rangers with the quality of the players they have in the side. "My ambition is to play in the SPL and to do it with Rangers one day would be as good as it gets." Clark will be following in the footsteps of dad Sandy, who scored 21 goals in 62 appearances for Gers between 1983/84 and the young striker admits that makes his move to Ibrox even more emotional. He said: "I wasn't around when my dad played for Rangers and seeing him play for them in his prime is something I would have loved. "But if everything goes through, and hopefully I do get the chance to pull on the jersey, I would like to think it will be a special moment for him." A move to Ibrox will see the prolific striker once more tread the boards in the Scottish Second Division, but Clark doesn't care about the prospect of marking time as long as it is in the red, white and blue. He said: "It is a bit of a funny one, in that I have won the Second Division championship as a Queen of the South player and scored an awful lot of goals in the process, and yet I will be staying in the league. "But none of that matters when you are talking about becoming a Rangers player." Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dutchy 1,200 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Do players that support the club make better than average players?It's nice to know he has the same mind set as most Rangers men, but the only thing I'm wanting him to do is score a barrow-load for Rangers. He's come to the right club at the right time if he indeed does sign for us.Good luck Nicky. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drunk and disorderly. 14,476 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 He has huge potential, is a Bear and won't cost a fortune in wages. He could go a huge way to solving our lack of attacking options. His signing should prove beneficial to both Nicky and us in the long term. I'm looking forwards to watching him score a barrel load of goals for us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

1st_Jan_1994 4,868 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Great news, but he needs service to realise his dream of bettering last seasons tally.Hopefully a midfield with Law, Templeton and Shiels can make that happen. Emphasis must be on attacking tactics and creating a lot more than last season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaujolais 1,371 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 I am really looking forward to seeing Nicky Clark playing for us. He is exactly what we need for next season, and I wish him every success.A few years ago I do not think I could ever imagined being so enthused about signing a player from a 2nd Division team. Every cloud has its silver lining. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kay Fabe 4 Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 This is the kind of signing I want to see Rangers make, theres never been a better chance for a complete overhaul than this summer, while many wanted this last summer I think we had to go out and show the fans that despite being in the 4th tier we could take SPL players and pay them more than 30 other Scottish clubs, having seen what these players have given or not given as may be the case then it reaffirms the fans point that younger hungry players with SFL expereance is the way forward bxut this time we know that we can attract SPL players, we just dont need them.Clarke and Little up front would be great and has potential to grow over the next 2 years Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
