It’s not “fuck everyone else, we’re Rangers and we’ve just got a quality player to commit to us for 3+ years” it’s “well, fingers crossed he does well but not so well that Brighton need to bring him back when they go down”. They can't take him back fixed fee this summer Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence why he is now on loan and not forgetting we've still to pay for Pedro's shite and that's when we did have ST money. WE are being short changed and shafted. Club website says Brighton didn’t want to sell permanently this window and that’s why it’s a loan move. Not sure I believe it but that’s what it says.

Broxi 11,484 Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 Why do people keep saying they hope Brighton don't change their mind if they get relegated? They can't do that, if we want him in the summer we have him. We have already agreed the transfer, Brighton are now powerless to stop it.

We’ve got no idea if another club can match that fee (or double it) and snatch him in the summer. Even just that small doubt that ‘if he’s the absolute standout in the league and two OF games a club coming into the EPL with bags of money might steal him’ takes the sheen of, at least a bit.

rangersross 6,530 Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 Honestly, if you think the ‘decision’ to take him on loan is some sort of brilliant business move by the board, freeing up to cash to invest in other targets - while ensuring JM’s signing is a ‘sure thing’ in the summer - and not a desperate attempt to defer costs by passing them onto ST holders: where the fuck have you been the last few years?

WGOH 2,344 Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 Is this not a good deal if we get him in the summer ? Why’s everyone so uptight? At least we’re going in the right direction with our targets/signings. Would be the ultimate embarrassment though if he doesn’t join permanently, can understand people’s pessimism.

WCPRANGERS1 2,997 Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 Glad he's signed and good to see how happy he is to sign. Whole deal has became a bit of a saga mind you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Real Ranger 3,195 Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 9 minutes ago, Sasa'onlyPLGsuccess'Papac said: Because the promises of invest that has been made. the factual lies that King has spouted about 30m he has invested when Warburton was sacked. I know my money goes back into the club but that should be a bonus to supposed investors not the whole yearly budget covered. Slightly different point from your original complaint on spending season ticket money on the recruitment of new players. I thought King claimed it would require between 30 - 50 million to make us competitive again and he was willing to fund half of the total investment, could be wrong on that but even so King is a long way of the 25 million mark.

King would say anything to get his claws on this club. We knew back when Green and co got us he didn't want to pony up, God knows why some thought he'd chuck millions at us now.

Then why is the club website saying Brighton didn't want to sell permanently this window and why is the wording from their end "expected" ,, as I keep saying it doesn't make that much sense no matter what angle you come at it from .. but there is a couple of positives from it being a loan, but some negatives too and overall and most of all another charade and circus for us Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
