onefootwillie 1,518 Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 If the net spend is only 500k then a couple of points for me come up . Obviously it's way short of what we need but for 500k we have better players than last season Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RangersMedia 35,961 Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 He didn’t say net spend did he? Not reading that again but I’m sure he said average spend. That = Average spend by player so sounds about right. It’s an interesting post tbh, the fans are unhappy because Pedro signed these guys and we haven’t played well, but perhaps Pedro signed these players with the aims of finishing 2nd (only he and the Board will ever know if that’s the case), so their expectations may be different to ours.

black magic walters 20 Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 read it and some good points, a bit of a rant from BA but he's obviously passionate I honestly believe we would still be in a lower division if MBE Mcoist didn't stick it out in the darkest days and he had more shit thrown at him than anyone. also about the spending, we've seen it over the years , some players work some don't overall if its £8 million spend and half of them come good then its a result compared to £12 million for tore andre fucking flo Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
