So it seems that we will be having a £5 million transfer kitty for next season! According to the daily mail

They're wrong. The manager's budget, as I posted here last week, will increase by £4.8m but that will include transfer fees, wages and agent fees. Four players at £10k a week and half of that's away, plus signing on money and agent's cuts and there's precious little left for transfer fees. The only other income will be the wages saved on those leaving, which could be between £30-35k a week. As I said before, there are a lot of juicy Bosmans out there and I'm certain Warbs will find the cream.



20 Apr 2016 20:07:15
Was going to say the same as wee-ecky. certain members in the press like to exagerate so the fans will then turn when 'promised' funds/ players etc aren't met.



20 Apr 2016 21:34:42
Teddy that would be a good kitty, considering what mw done with 400 grand,



23 Apr 2016 15:58:39
What did he do with £400k? That money didn't include wages, signing on fees, agents fees etc. His total playing budget right now, including staff etc, is in excess of £11m. He's only getting another £4.8m added to that to attract platers for the SPL and, hopefully, Europe. It really isn't a good kitty at all, but at least we have the right man to use it wisely. To put it into perspective, just one £2m player would account for all of that additional budget when you add on wages and other fees.



20 Apr 2016 08:58:28
Daily express saying that madjid bougherra has been in touch with david weir and would love to return to rangers.



21 Apr 2016 18:52:27
At his age with no sell on value tho. Not sure warbs would go for that. Plus wage demands may be too high. Is he even playing well now? Havent seen or heard much since he left.



19 Apr 2016 23:21:24
Hearing rangers will speak with norwich and west brom over the availibilty of james morrison and graham dorrans. I heard morrisons contract is up in the summer so could be a real possibility, but Norwich Could be looking for up to 4 million for dorrans which would kill any chance of a deal being done there.



20 Apr 2016 22:30:59
Think u need tae stop playing football manager for a while.



20 Apr 2016 15:57:15
heard were looking at at a few right backs from league one and two suppose we need cover in both full back positions wots your thoughts troops.



20 Apr 2016 16:43:40
Definitely. been worried about losing Tav or Waldo to injury all season! Especially with the amount of ground they cover in the magic hat formation. Young, pacy wing-backs as cover would be ideal.



20 Apr 2016 17:22:55
We should sign Jordan McGhee from Hearts. He's a great young player and cover all across the back four.



20 Apr 2016 18:37:36
you would hope the defence would be high on our priority
also would hope to get ball back on loan but we should
be looking further ahead
again we talk about signing 5 or 6 new players
but how many will we let go we have 3 on loan
then we have shields temps clark law that may well leave
or do we look at players we have out on loan and hope
that next season they step up.



20 Apr 2016 21:53:49
We need to sign a striker as cover for Waghorn, as I can't see Miller playing every game.



21 Apr 2016 18:54:38
We will have gasporotto back who seemed like a good defender and hardie back who could take over when miller gets subbed. Plus there may be some game time for the other loan players that done well.



22 Apr 2016 10:27:38
Gasporatto has been Mortons best player this season, only reason we don't get to watch our youth players on loan is that they don't get to play against us. I look fwd to us getting him, Walsh and Hardie back but I don't think MW likes Murdoch which is a shame as he showed some real promise last season in the 1st team.
I think we need cover for both full backs and cover up front as let's face it Nicky Clark might love Rangers but he's simply not good enough for Rangers. Most important area I want cover for is a powerful defensive central midfielder.



20 Apr 2016 15:44:25
anyone heard any more on harry winks from spurs coming to us on loan supposed to b a real cracker.



20 Apr 2016 13:50:56
Madjid Bougherra wants to come back to Rangers in the summer and says he still talks to Davie Weir

Source (Daily Record)



20 Apr 2016 15:44:40
he was a great player for us first time round despite the big arse! lol would definetly take him back seeing that it would be a free aslong as he's prepared t take a lower wage until such times as the club are ABLE to pay a higher one which i can't see unless big investment comes in or we have a decent run in Europe for the next 4 seasons! still only 33 and wwould add much needed expierence to the team especially given that Crooks and Windass coming into the team are in their early 20'. As for Kyle Lafferty, i know he was hit or miss first time around but watching him for Northern Ireland over the last qualifying campign sugguests to me that he has really matured and could definetly do a job for us again more consistently. AGain he's got experience, he's awkard to mark, good in the air, just imagine the service from Tavs, Wallace, Waggy, McKay and co!



20 Apr 2016 17:49:47
Don't think we'll ever be looking to 'get the ball in the box' under Warburton so being good in the air won't matter much except from the occasional corner we put in.

I wouldn't be too bothered one way or another if he came back to us to be honest.



20 Apr 2016 18:45:38
Can't mind lafferty being good with his head! Think your thinking of prso 😂😂😂😂.



21 Apr 2016 18:56:27
After the season we have had with the personnel we have i fully trust and will support and player brought in with the manager.



20 Apr 2016 13:37:20
Magic Bougherra has asked Rangers about a return after the summer.



20 Apr 2016 11:33:38
Would anyone take Scott Allan if Celtic made him available in the summer? I would, definitely a talent and I reckon the Magic Man would get the best out of him, sort of player we could build our team around for years to come if he fulfills his potential.



20 Apr 2016 11:47:41
Not in a millionaire years, we don't need him plus he turned his back on us for £.



20 Apr 2016 11:49:16
Janesaddiction no i would not like him to come to our club now, he had his chance and blew it, maybe mw would have got the best out of him, but now we will never know, if i had the chance to play for my boyhood heros (allegedly) i would have sat in purgotery, like he never done at hibs, i would have sat in the stand, that was the threat he faced from stubbs, maybe its just me that's got it wrong in life, bet let's show allen what he missed, now that celtic are getting a new manager (fact) allen maybe will maybe be off loaded quickly, he should have siyt stubbs out, imho.



20 Apr 2016 11:52:46
I don't want Scott Allan he's not good enough to get on there bench so he's not good enough to get on ours. I my opinion he's not better than Holt or Halliday so no I don't want him. Hibs weren't going to sell him to us and that's fine if he seen out his contract he could have refused a move to them and signed a pre-contract with us last January (He did not need to sign for them as he had a contract with Hibs even if they wanted to sell him)



20 Apr 2016 13:01:03
You mental?



20 Apr 2016 13:12:37
Absoloutley no chance. Like that bird you're after that goes with the lad you hate then when thigngs don't work out she wants to come to you. nip that in the bud (is it just me that's had that? Lmao) by time MW adds to the squad hell not be good enough. Maybe a return to Dundee Utd is where his level is at.



20 Apr 2016 13:33:53
Scott Allan has flushed his career down the toilet. He still has another 3 years at Celtic and I hope he stays and milks them of £8k/ week without ever kicking a ball again.



20 Apr 2016 15:58:58
there is a strong rumour that they are ready to accept
an offer or 3/ 4 a mill from derby county
which means a quick half mill profit for them
and end of probably a quick pay rise for s. a.



20 Apr 2016 17:34:43
did he not say after moving there, 'I was never that big a Rangers fan anyway'?
Let him sit and rot with the most ridiculous decision he could have made for his career.



21 Apr 2016 13:09:39
Serious posts only please.

He has shown his true colours and I think it would cause a riot if he signed.



20 Apr 2016 09:43:39
Sorry Posted a link to the mail mail article about the 5mill transfer kitty and it also mentions that we are after 25yr old Barnsley captain Conor Hourihane. Truth be told I have never heard of the lad.



20 Apr 2016 13:35:36
I doubt Conor will be joining Rangers. He doesn't like our club very much.



21 Apr 2016 00:58:39
Just saw his "Rangers scum" tweets. Can't see this one happening folks.



20 Apr 2016 07:40:50
Was in a meeting yesterday with Cala housing. Girl in there (Managing Director) says Kyle Lafferty bought a £1.3m house from them in thorntonhall at the weekend.

Take from this what you want fellow bears.

Just registered to make this point as the rumour in hospitality at Hampden was that it was Grahame Dorrans. That's why I asked her (I know her so it's not pi5h) .

Cheers s.



20 Apr 2016 08:02:52
Hope he is just buying property, I was never really keen on lafferty tbh, Dorrans would be good though.



20 Apr 2016 09:11:27
If it was Lafferty he is probably signing for East Kilbride.



20 Apr 2016 11:52:36
Stu laffery only ever tried first time found when new contranct was spoke about, so its a no from me me.



20 Apr 2016 13:14:46
Are MD's allowed to give out their clients names in relation to properties? Lafferty only kicked on for us towards the end of the seasons. Aye he looked the part then but where was he the previous 6 months? Is he what we need? i'd trust MW's judgement as his signings have pretty much been on point so far.



20 Apr 2016 17:16:55
Lafferty is just about to marry a girl from East Kilbride that will explain why he is buying a house up there no need to worry bears. Dorrans is a huge gers fan and has said before he would sign but transfer fee always been the problem.



20 Apr 2016 17:37:03
You're all wrong, I am the manager of Third Lanark and I can assure you I've just signed him for 5 Italian birds and plane ticket to milan.



20 Apr 2016 13:54:32
Totally ridiculous, would you have us believe the managing director of a major company would risk their job by giving out such information.

Assuming you aren't a complete daydreamer then haven't you been a bit of a fool sharing the information here, if it was true you could well be out of a job yourself as Cala wouldn't have anything to do with yourself and whatever company you claim to work for.

Perhaps I might phone cala this afternoon for comment on this. I wonder what they might say?



20 Apr 2016 21:10:04
Bet you your chip shop.
