GersInCanada 7,775 Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 Not at all sure that we need a 3rd choice keeper. In the unlikely situation where the first 2 were unavailable surely we can just recall one of the youth keepers from their loan club. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commendable would be taking the hit and dropping to a lesser club to try and work your way into playing constantly for a better team at some stage, not taking some comfortable number of not playing but just being paid to be at a better club He will be on next to nothing at us - not like he is here for the payday. from a quick google he is the third lowest paid player at the club earning a whopping 2500 quid a week. in perspective, average player salaries in englands league 2 where he could get a game is around that figure. Some people would just love the opportunity to be at a massive club like rangers, even if it means not playing. we picked him up from barrow ffs, what was he going to be remembered for there? falkirkNS 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best he could do was Barrow who were in the National League and definitely not paying £2.5k a week What makes you think he could have got a gig in League 2? The better players in League 2 get about that much (approx £100-120k) plymouthranger 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don’t pay our most promising youth players that kind of money, we’re not going to spend that on a glorified player/coach who is there as a backup to the backups.

I just don't know enough about contract details but I thought that you could recall loan players if needed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
