We need a creative midfielder, a defender and a right back imo, but we dont seem to be wanting to buy them. Broadfoot again next year? And Dailly in midfield aswell. Plus it looks like we are going to sell our top scorer from the last 3 seasons for peanuts to Cardiff In Walter we trust......i'm beginning to doubt him.

BillyBoyBlue 0 Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 I am not happy about this! Lafferty is nothing but a poor mans Lee McCulloch! He is a 8ft winger with no pace and scores the odd goal as a target man! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boab 73 Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Burnley have accepted a cash-plus- player offer from Rangers for striker Kyle Lafferty. Rangers will pay the Clarets £3m for the Northern Ireland forward with striker Alan Gow moving to the Championship club as part of the deal. Burnley manager Owen Coyle told the club website: "We've received a very good offer from Rangers, a deal worth close to £4m when you include Gow." Lafferty, 20, would become Rangers' third summer signing. Rangers manager Walter Smith has already bolstered his attacking options after signing Kenny Miller and Andrius Velicka. The Ibrox club tabled a bid for Lafferty two weeks ago but now have increased that to a sum in excess of £3m. Coyle said Lafferty had made it clear he wanted to leave Turf Moor. "Ultimately, from the fans' point of view, Kyle wanted to leave the club after saying he felt it was time to move on." Burnley said both deals were subject to the players agreeing personal terms with their respective clubs. Last week, Celtic had a bid for £2.75m plus Derek Riordan turned down by Burnley and Wolves were also interested in the Northern Ireland international. Lafferty has been on the books at Turf Moor since 2005, and has scored 10 goals in 56 appearances for Owen Coyle's men. The forward, a lifelong Rangers fan, has already won 16 caps for his country, notching five goals and has said he is keen to further his career elsewhere. Gow, 25, has struggled to establish himself at Ibrox since moving from Falkirk last summer. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/t...ley/7451140.stm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boab 73 Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Lafferty Fee Agreed With Rangers Posted on: Tue 17 Jun 2008 Burnley Football Club has today agreed a cash-plus-player deal with Rangers for striker Kyle Lafferty. The Clarets have formally agreed a £3m fee for the Northern Ireland striker, with a further £250,000 payable on appearances and a sell-on clause that includes 10% of any future profit. Burnley will also enter discussions with 25-year-old Rangers midfielder Alan Gow as part of the package. Both deals are now subject to the players agreeing personal terms with their respective clubs. Burnley manager Owen Coyle confirmed: "We have received a very good offer from Rangers - a deal worth close to £4m when you include Alan (Gow), who has been offered to us in return as part of the package. "Ultimately, from the fans point of view, Kyle wanted to leave the club after saying he felt it was time to move on. "Providing the deal is concluded we wish him well, but ultimately we want players who are fully committed to Burnley Football Club." http://www.burnleyfootballclub.premiumtv.c...1329669,00.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You cant put these players in the same sentence! Lafferty, although young and potentially improving, is still a bad signing! If he was that good he would be in the Prem with a bottom 10 side. I hope i eat my words but i cant see him being a major hit! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
