james_85 656 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I think there is a gap there and I think it is bigger than some would like to admit. We are needing to invest a serious amount in the team if we are going to be challenging for the title the only issue with that is if we spend 5 million I can see them doing the same and the champions league money will help them stay ahead. To complete I think we need 2 really good center backs, we need a new left back Lee Wallace captain or not just doesnt cut it for me, In midfield we are needing a couple of players who have some dig about them and are not easy to push off the ball as it happened far too much on Sunday. McKay is not consistent enough and MOH isnt liked, Barton will be away, Niko might struggle for next year after this injury. We cant rely on Miller for much longer due to age.

Total crock of shite . I may be confusing you with another poster, but are you not regularly bemoaning the lack of investment and complaining that's what we need to compete? You can't complain of a lack of investment on one hand then say there isn't a gap on the other. Totally contradicts each other. If it's not you, apologies.

weshallnotbemoved! 714 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Directionally the OP has a point. Would the taigs have paid over 1.5 mill for Garner? No chance. He was signed on a wonder goal seen on a Sky Sports ad. That 1.5 mill could have been better spent. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bertent 2,081 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 If anyone but King was in charge the uproar would be deafening. But luckily silence can be bought quite cheaply, a bit like the club. The management of expectations is astounding. Id expect it if we were Edinburgh Celtic or the Mutton molesters but we are Rangers FFS the biggest club in the country. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I accept your apologies mate .With the amount of moaning I do ,its maybe understandable you would get me mixed up with someone else Not on this one though . I feel investment is needed but I never moan about that so much because I know King wont . Well not unless it's off ST sales. I feel MW has had enough cash for players and messed up big time . It's not down to him to make the best of what he signed us . Or pay the price Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranieri and Clough in England, Ferguson at Aberdeen. They all beat higher spending teams by teamwork. 8 of the Sunday Celtic squad cost in total 1.7m. Put aside the three who cost over 3m. Gordon Free Tierney No Cost Lustig Free Toure Free Bitton 700k Rogic 500k Dembele 500k Forest No Cost Total Cost 1.7m About the same amount was used to buy Joe Garner. A Preston player purchased on the back of scoring 6 goals in a year. The same total scored by Dembele in 3 games against Rangers and Man City. My point.... A good manager chooses players very wisely. He Man Manages his men and instills a winning mentality. So far, Mark Warburton's player choices and man management have not made the required standard. The money Gap is there for sure, but history has shown that money is not the only way to win at football. January offers a last chance for Warbs to prove he has the ability. Low cost players can and should be sourced. Deadwood should be shipped. Let us see what you are really capable of. You forget how much ( or little) the Helicopter Sunday squad cost....I was stunned to find how cheaply we had got many of those players. And Alex McLeish worked miracles to get that out of them.

Yip, he'll be on decent wages though so that probably counters the lack of a fee. The sales pitch will have been something along the lines of "come here, score goals, raise your profile and when a decent offer comes in you can head back down south" Hopefully that's the kind of thing we are doing with Rossiter, Crooks and Windass.
