BasileBoliSoup 9 Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 You're right Dado was quality, wish we had got him earlier in his career. People on here say Lafferty is shite, but how often has anyone seen him play apart from a couple of games. Give the lad a chance, he's only 20 and the fact he's a bluenose will mean he'll surely give it his all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pessimistic_pete 2 Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 RANGERS Football Club can confirm Burnley's Kyle Lafferty is meeting Chief Executive Martin Bain today to discuss the possibility of joining the Ibrox club. The 20-year-old striker has scored five goals for Northern Ireland and has attracted interest from a number of clubs in recent months. http://www.rangers.premiumtv.co.uk/page/Ne...1329707,00.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chewbacca 8 Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Ah the best of luck to him, at least we're not signing cheap aging foreigners on a bosman, cause that would just get people moaning Good luck Kyle and welcome to the family, although I'm guessing you have been a part of the family for a while. I hope you prove the doubters wrong. Can I just remind people on this forum, the majority were against us signing Lee McCulloch and look whos eating their words now! Anyway, does any of the Bears based in N.I. have an opinion on Lafferty? Also all the best of success to Alan Gow. I was disappointed not to see more of him, the one time I seen him play I thought he done ok and might have progressed further but at least he'll get the chance to start his career again so all the best to you Alan, go and do yourself proud!

KERRZO 5 Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 I think its a good statement of intent from Rangers, we have money and he is our most expensive signing since we brought Fergie back, roll on next season!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueIsTheColour 35 Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Having seen Lafferty playquite a few times for Burnley and Northern Ireland i believe he is just a younger Lee McCulloch who will put himself about, win headers but not really score any goals. I don't know how much the transfer fee is but it has been rumoured to be around £3 million and to me that is just a complete waste on a player who was no better than average in the Championship. Good luck Kyle, you are certainly going to need it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

caf 0 Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Timmy was having kittens when it was revealed that they had won the race for him, in my opinion firepower isn't the problem Torres would struggle for us with the lack of creatitvity and firepower coming from our midfield.... Velicka.... good signing 15 to 20 goals a season Miller.... runs about like a bin bag in the wind... waste of 2 million Lafferty.. raw and potential but 4 million take that 6 million and we could've bought a quality creative midfielder boyd and velicka up top that would have worked but we are deluding ourselves if we think after spending £7 million on those three there will be a lot more money available until we start shipping bodies out..... people aren't linning up to but cousin or jcd.... does that mean the king and shagger are for the off Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ricksen_da_best 2,034 Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 No, Owen is talking about Laffery ok. Sorry for not being 100% precise on Gow. :unionflag: Strange one him moving to england though, just bought a new house, a scottish team was the only place i thought he'd go to, but then again Championship football would be better than the dire pish in the spl.

Stuart_RFC 41 Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Lafferty is a good player, not su re about the fee though, but if he joins then i wish him all the best and hope he proves a lot of the fans wrong Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFlyingPig 0 Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Walter must have a very cunning plan if forward number 3 signs up so quickly. Its early doors in the transfer window so we seem to be getting everyone he wants. Real quality needs to be added to the midfield and at least a right back for the defence unless Whittaker is going to assume that role which is also a risk as he didnt look to comfortable there when given the chance, short though it was.I dont know anything about Lafferty but spending possibly 4m on the guy seems a bit of a risk. Gow was proven in the SPL but strangely never got a chance which annoys me also. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
