Kylegib 516 Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 On 22/09/2022 at 00:16, MVRanger said: Whilst the frustrations are understandable, a massive dose of realism must also be considered. We posted losses of 23million, 13 miillion and 11 million over the last 3 years and are on UEFA's watchlist for FFP. Considering where we have been, the balance sheet must be the priority. There are also a stack of issues in relation to the finances that are sometines overlooked, likes of Deferred payents of transfers in the last accounts at 13 million, 14 million out in transfers, staggered monies-in for transfers, UCL monies-in staggered over the season, budget based on EL qualification, massive bonuses for EL final & UCL qualification, escalating wage bill etc. etc. The idea that there are tens of millions floating about in the clubs coffers waiting to be spent on transfers is naive at best. Can the board do better? Absolutely. However I think its only fair to recognize all the moving parts that go into ensuring the Accounts become more robust over time. If we don't have money to spend in the coffers when will we ever have money to spend. There is not a chance that we budgeted for reaching the Europa League Final or reaching the Champions League added to that we sold Aribo, Bassey and Patterson bringing more money in to the club. We lost Gerrard and his management team due to lack of backing after winning 55, Gio has taken us to a European final and got us in to Champions League and we've not backed him either, unfortunately in football if you stand still you'll fall behind and that is what is happening. No Rangers fan wants to see a repeat of 2012 ever again but we really need to strengthen our playing squad and start moving forward. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCDBigBear 10,865 Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 I can understand why the club wouldn't want other retailers selling merchandise at a lower price than our own shops. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
