FlippinEck 3,755 Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Spent too much of laf tbh. Wasted too much on an unknowen talent and now have fuck all left to spend in the transfer window by the looks of it. As for boyd. Should never be leaveing. He's crying out for a fucking DECENT BLOODY ATTACKING FUCKING MIDFIELDER!!!!! Something we've not had for years now. Walter needs to get a fucking grip big time. Incredibly pissed off atm. Spending 6 million on three strikers. Two are nothing more than average and the other a prospect for the future (and a poor prospect from what I've heard.) Beyond a joke now. Boyd and buffel showed glimpses of being a great partnership, especially when lovenkrands played up there, boyds first 6 months coupled with lovenkrands great form must have got about 35 goals between them in 6 months Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MosesMcNeil 1,664 Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 BBC Scotland has learned that the Ibrox club are prepared to offer striker Kris Boyd as part of the deal to bring the Dutchman to Glasgow. Tell you what - if Smith thinks that signing Miller was controversial - selling Boyd and effectively replacing him with Miller would see many Rangers supporters openly turn on the manager. To me it would be fucking madness to sell Boyd at this stage of his career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nvager 498 Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Natural goal scorers are much rarer than good CBs. If WS was to sell K Boyd on part payment for a fairly good CB then I for one would think he was mad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poetry_In_Blue 1,043 Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Really think the majority of the papers have seriously got this wrong as well as BBC Sport, do not believe for one second that Boyd would be part of any swap deal, this player plus Cardiff giving us £800,000 (even if they think it's the other way) to me would only reach the value of Cousin's buy out clause in his contract. Cardiff are crazy if they think this bloke who is in his final year of his contract if worth over £3 million, even though I would happily do a straight swap deal for Cousin without any extra money.

bearwhocares 0 Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 From their local rag. Cardiff City Chairman Peter Ridsdale has rejected an initial bid from Rangers after they turned their attention to the commanding Dutch centre-back. After previously rejecting our bids for striker Kris Boyd, Rangers have relented and sought to include the Scotsman in a swap for Loovens, also asking for close to a million pounds from us to complete the package. However, Ridsdale was in no mood to fold and stated his resolve to keep one of our most impressive players and the rock of our steady defence. Ridsdale intimated the deal was well under expectations and that Loovens' value was higher than Boyd. Walter Smith is expected to offer again for Loovens, and a deal could well be struck with Loovens stalling on a new contract and having only a year to run. City may be tempted to sell (or swap!) now rather than risk losing him for a cut price in January, or for free in the summer. This deal is a tough one, with Loovens preferring a move to the Premiership, Boyd uncertain of a move to Cardiff and the club distant in ntheir respective valuations. However, Rangers are under pressure to bring in defensive cover with European games upcoming and a chronic lack of defenders. Dont think Kris will be too happy with his gaffer....

Sparky1927 0 Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Hello Gers fans. Cardiff fan here. Thought i would give you guys an idea of what is being said down our end of things. The fact is Glenn Loovens IS worth £3million. We have had bids of £2.5million from Championship clubs this year which we turned down. Trust me he is a quality player and I have no doubt that he would become a fans favourite up with you lot. He is the single most important player we have. When he plays we win, when he doesnt we don't. To give you an idea out of 12 games he missed last year we won just 1!!! Now to the deal in question...You can rule Cousin out for starters. Like you guys will revolt if you let boyd go for loovens the city fans will revolt if we let our star man go for Cousin, It will not happen. I agree with you lot, Boyd is class, and you shouldnt let him go. However, i am a family friend of David Temme (Cardiff City's Board) and he told me that Rangers had come back to Cardiff proposing a straight swap as long as both players could agree personal terms. He even said Cardiff were starting negotiations with a CB to replace Loovens they were so confident that a deal would be reached with the pair. Just thought i would let you know the whispers down here!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparky1927 0 Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 I would have agreed with you JR! But from what i have heard Cardiff are very confident they can land their man if Rangers pawn him out like they are. Dave Jones is a wiley character and does not waste his time. He must be confident he can talk Boyd into it. I hope so, he is brillliant from what i have seen. Honestly though, if you get Loovens you will be delighted with him. He is twice the player as Shittu. I would hate to see him go but he has such a special relationship with all our fans we would all get behind him at you guys. I will keep an ear to the floor this end and let you know what i hear, and if im welcome keep checking in what you guys are saying! And Goal Machine, lol! If anything shows why we ont want cousin its your eagerness to get rid of him! lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
