Rangers Rumours Archive May 07 2018

 

Use our rumours form to send us rangers transfer rumours.


07 May 2018 12:46:20
Stv just reported that there's no external investment and the presser is just announcing a share issue



07 May 2018 13:54:59
said this all along, its nothing more than a request for yet more of our money to fund the new manager. What the hell do we all think now. There has been some amount of single fish and people in the know on here that know feck all.



07 May 2018 14:12:43
What we need to remember is king only owns 14 per cent of shares, so this must be agreed by board. Not good enough



07 May 2018 14:15:12
Bigcliff, it's a rumour website, stories were certainly doing the rounds. Not good enough from our board



07 May 2018 14:19:49
A lot of guys been doing some slavering!
Bit of a damper after the big news the other day, I think mr Gerrard may have been duped



07 May 2018 14:24:35
The more I think about it, why would king come out and say we have x y or z to spend. If he said their was 20m to spend then clubs would instantly bump up the valuation for players we are interested in!



07 May 2018 14:28:14
Agreed bigcliff, a lot of folks on here just making up absolute drivel and claiming to know people in the know haha



07 May 2018 14:38:31
If the board make a song and dance about new investment then clubs will up the asking over potential targets.



07 May 2018 14:47:17
I am a bit annoyed by this, but then again I guess I’m just like everyone else and hoped the rumours would be true. I don’t think it’s all doom and gloom however. We have a new kit deal which is more than last season along with the sports direct deal no longer being in place. Then there is the share issue 6m. Pedro got about 10 million last summer. Also players out of contact/ sold in the summer. so taking all this into consideration one would think Gerrard would have somewhere between 10-20 million this summer. And like it was said above why would king say we have ‘X’ amount to spend then we get held at random for players.



07 May 2018 15:36:34
The kit deal is less than half of what puma where paying govanfront



07 May 2018 16:02:14
I can't really see him saying what Gerrard has to spend that'll be for the papers to speculate.



07 May 2018 16:10:40
puma were paying who gordo?



07 May 2018 17:18:42
I know its a rumours page, and every man and his dog have been talking about big money from overseas, but do you honestly think Gerrard would have signed up seeing our current squad, and being told "that's what you have to work with", he must have been given assurances about finance for transfers, but the club are hardly likely to announce what we've got to the outside world are they?



07 May 2018 17:28:12
To all above : QUESTION : ---- Would SG even consider becoming our manager if he hadn't been given funds which in HIS estimation were sufficient.
ANSWER : NO BRAINER



07 May 2018 18:20:56
You're talking absolute tosh, gordo87!Puma paid rangers £1.5million a season which was signed when we were in the 3rd division, under the stewardship of chuck green! It was a 5 year deal which in my maths equates to a total of £7.5million in total! Hummel are giving us £10million over 3 years which is £2.5million more than puma in a deal which is 2 years less! I would confidently say that the hummel deal is way more than the puma deal was, from where i'm standing mate!



07 May 2018 18:35:40
Dave king is a fantastic lier its been proved. think stevie g has fell in the trap. and as for investment why keep it quiet u make a statement signing stevie g next thing and only thing u can do is bankroll him bottom line stuck it to the celtic



07 May 2018 18:45:34
Loans loans and more loans, I thought we were supposed to be back on track according to mr king! King is a liar and I will not be forking out again. Enough is enough



07 May 2018 18:51:09
Fell in a trap? . Shoosht man. King never said Gerrard was getting millions. Gerrard will know exactly what he's getting. Just because King hasn't came out and said how much he's a liar? . All people like you used to say was our business is aLL in the papers and now it's mostly kept in house you make up crap. Let the summer make it's own course then comment. Sick of so called dupportes bringing us down.



07 May 2018 19:08:55
How is King a liar Ronnie.? what has he lied about. Its maybe better you don’t come back. the club can do with people like you and your negative attitude.



07 May 2018 19:39:47
Colster do your homework and you’ll realise why he’s a liar!



07 May 2018 20:26:17
Like already been said on here let's wait for they new season and see whst happens then. Stevie G. Knows what he's let himself in for and is gambling 4 years of his career in order to get back to the EPL as a top manager.



08 May 2018 09:18:25
What happened to underarmour supersttuper? you guaranteed everyone I you had a source? Yet another lie?
Tommy



08 May 2018 17:55:41
It is total madness what's hapining here people. let's just think about it logicaly. since dave king promised take my doe or give them 10in a row he has done absaloute he haw. He goes on about investors this that and next thing. its no about investors its about geting basics right. he has squandered the millons raised buy fans botching a team of second rate loanees year in year out to stop the rot. No other teams have investors in scotland with 30 mill its utter crap. and not needed to win a mill a season its just nonsence. we have let these mupets in the door and let them screw us over year in year out. we needed a top manager as soon as mcoist left. someone who new the club gave him the time kept the millons and built up a strong squad last 3year and may have even sold a few gems if we had the right module in place behind the scenes. the scouting has been horendous let's be honest we have forgot about the basics and done nothing buy panic buys and squandered a good transfer kitty. that could easyly won the scottish league with a strong celtic



07 May 2018 11:56:44
Hugh Keevins hinting it's Murray on Twitter.

The Resurrection?



07 May 2018 13:53:21
Game of Thrones, I have come to the conclusion when looking at your recent posts, you just make stuff up. For what reason we will never know. I will let you off if your 12 and just sitting in your pyjamas.



07 May 2018 14:11:12
Hugh Keevins is not on Twitter, he regularly shares the fact that he only has a Nokia 3210 or similar on Clyde SSB.



07 May 2018 15:21:03
Hugh Keevins is definitely on twitter, shinjukushug. They regularly talk about it on clyde SSB all the time! Game of Thrones however is referring to tweets from a parody account. A blatantly obvious one when you see the tweets from it.



07 May 2018 15:32:50
Massively disappointed in that today tbh, hope that Gerrard knows more than us because we appear to have had the pi55 taken out us again!



07 May 2018 16:21:55
lm1991 the only people taking the pi55 are some on here who come out with a load of single fish mate.



07 May 2018 17:49:46
I don't know what people were expecting there was no way there was you going to be the external investment figures people were claiming put in if you were expecting 30 40 million put in to us is advise you to go for a long lie down



07 May 2018 18:53:15
Did seem to be a bit of a hyped press conference when a club statement would probably have done.

But, the way folks go on about our board, who have secured our funding for another season is unbelievable.

It wasn't the board who stated we'd secured £50m.

You'll never please everyone, but I'd like to think SG is happy with his budget. So, we'll need to wait and see just how much that turns out to be.



07 May 2018 21:26:09
I don't believe this 6 million is the final transfer kitty amount. SG would not have signed unless he was guaranteed a decent amount (which 6 mill isn't! )
I think there is still more to come and why should King show his financial hand straight away? We've no even finished this season yet!
I think we need to calm it, get 2nd place and unfortunately be patient this summer. again.



07 May 2018 11:16:38
Anyone heard what time Dave kings press conference will be at!



07 May 2018 12:09:19
I don’t see anything mentioned about this today is there a time? Is it actually happening?



07 May 2018 12:10:26
No. Been trying to find out too.



07 May 2018 12:17:59
It’s only the sun that’s said there is one today no one else mentions it and nothing on official club website



07 May 2018 12:46:08
Share issue that is all £6million



07 May 2018 12:47:22
It’s been, was only brief about a 6m share issue. No investment whatsoever, Smodge81 is talking 💩



07 May 2018 12:48:05
Been and gone, 6 million to be raised via share issue next month, no external investment coming into the club



07 May 2018 13:01:20
Just a share issue. Nothing to get excited over. In fact more likely to get depressed over it



07 May 2018 13:04:09
6 million raised through share issue no external investment. As per all those with sources talking about 20-50 million investment was absolute NONSENSE



07 May 2018 13:04:30
3 p. m. I believe



07 May 2018 13:06:48
There isn't 1 he gave a brief statement to a few press this morning this was raman from stv tweet
Dave King held a media briefing a short time ago. £6 million to be raised via a share issue next month. As things stand, no external investment coming into club. More on our website soon



07 May 2018 13:12:15
Heard 3pm



07 May 2018 13:17:56
Seems press conference had already happened and no external investment is expected this summer. £6 to be raised via a share issue.



07 May 2018 13:25:33
He’s already had it apparently, Raman from stv has said it’s a share issue that will raise £6 million with no outside investment



07 May 2018 13:27:54
Can't find anything online re what time presser is scheduled for. I'm itching to hear what is to be revealed.



07 May 2018 13:34:42
It's been, basically saying he plans on raising 6 million through a share issue, and that they aren't speaking to any external investors



07 May 2018 13:39:46
It’s been 6 million share issue



07 May 2018 13:40:26
Heard it’s about 2ish



07 May 2018 13:41:00
Zilch.
New share issue soon to raise £6m.
No new investment.



07 May 2018 13:41:33
It's already happened, king says there's 6 million to be raised via the share issue, and also says at the minute there's no new investors so all this about Murray and overseas investment to jim McColl was all just pie in the sky.



07 May 2018 13:57:00
So basically Dave king is Going to raise a £6m share issue cause he’s no money and yet again asking us mugs to fork out!
Disappointed is an understatement😬



07 May 2018 13:59:38
6 million share issue and that's it? . you've got to be having a laugh time to go king once again the fans are taking the hit



07 May 2018 14:13:11
Why have a press conference when there’s nothing to announce?, to let everyone know that there’s no outside investment, not in discussions with anyone, the board will be funding the transfers (don’t know for how much or for how many), no mention of the board members that have stepped down or who could be replacing them and why, nothing. It just doesn’t add up, are we sure this was the press conference and not a discussion with King and a journalist at the urinal before the meetings because someone is extracting it.



07 May 2018 16:32:17
Rest my case lads about all yous who were shouting 50 and 60 million coming in and signing ya ya toure rooney and torres. Time for some of you to take your head out of the clouds and be realistic about where we are as a club. Loans and low budget players again let's just hope Gerrard can rustle up a few gems



07 May 2018 18:43:36
From press conference.

"Rangers had received £17.7m in loans from shareholders and other investors and borrowed a £3m from Close Brothers. King says loans will be converted to equity after successful share issue.

"There will be a balance between the conversion of loans versus raising of new cash, " he explained.

"At this stage there is nothing external other than existing shareholders and investors. We are not talking to anyone new, who is not there already. "

Gerrard has not been given a figure of how much he will have to spend.

"We will continue to invest in the squad and we will be a net investor. We will provide additional net funds. We don't put figures on that because we can't. "

"It depends on how many players Steven wants to keep. We haven't even discussed it. Right now we don't have a player plan. "

None of this is good news. the reported £6 million will be sliced to offset loans already spent. I was ready to dig out the cash for my season ticket, but its just the same old show.

King, you're a sand dancer.



07 May 2018 09:57:57
Seen on sky sports news were in talks with Charlie Adam again how do fellow bears fell about that



07 May 2018 10:20:06
Charlie Adam will be a fine signing for rangers he’ll bring some quality and won’t shy out a challenge some thing we haven’t able to do in the old firm, he’ll lack getting about the park good signing for me 🔴⚪️🔵



07 May 2018 10:39:28
Aslong as hummel make him a xxxl shirt



07 May 2018 10:57:12
Been watching SSN most of the morning and nothing has been on about this also nothing on their website



07 May 2018 11:01:44
Met Charlie a few years back down south and no doubt about it, he is a big Gers man but the problem for me is he looks past his best! Him and Stevie G played together at Liverpool for a year so our new Manager knows him well and maybe wants him about the club🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧



07 May 2018 11:04:16
Please no Charlie Adams . we let him go fir a reason



07 May 2018 11:05:39
We already are, and will be "linked" with everyone who has worn a Liverpool jersey. The guy has only signed a contract and the press and supporters are saying who we should get . Gerrard will be getting well paid so let him make the decisions.
It will be an interesting close season, but we've still got two difficult games this season.



07 May 2018 11:06:08
Charlie Adams can hardly run. Was not good enough when younger and fit and not good enough now



07 May 2018 11:09:49
I don't want Adam back, too old and slow we can do better than him



07 May 2018 11:10:50
Called this weeks ago and got the usual stick



07 May 2018 11:15:30
Charlie Adam is not the answer! We are trying to close the gap on Celtic, look at it this way Charlie wouldn’t even make the Celtic bench so what makes you think he would be a good signing if we are to be successful next season.



07 May 2018 11:16:52
Played in EPL for a number of years I’m sure he’lk Cope in Scotland



07 May 2018 11:43:40
IF Steven Gerrard wants Charlie Adam so be it. He’s got my FULL backing.



07 May 2018 11:49:41
BlueBrian.

I heard the same thing said about guys like Joey Barton and Senderos.

just because they played in the epl doesn't mean they will do well in Scotland once their best days are behind them.



07 May 2018 11:54:09
Charlie Adams my ar#see he's as fat as f#ck 😠



07 May 2018 11:55:40
Would Charlie Adam last a full 90 minutes



07 May 2018 12:28:27
Gutted if we sign him, not a great player with a dreadful work rate, not what we need! I think he’ll end up at St Mirren



07 May 2018 13:54:06
If adams coming bk we may as well give stevie g albertz numan mols laudrup gazza greig amo rino etc number see if they wanna come bk too



07 May 2018 16:33:54
We need legs in midfield celtic walk past us he's not the answer



07 May 2018 08:55:19
I was at a sportsman lunch yesterday with the goalie and tosh mcinley word was david murray is gifting £50 m to club as he regrets the past. also the goalie told me when a was getting my pic took with him that barry ferguson will be one of gerrards coaches and graham sounous will be on the board. 3pm announcement. whst you heard SMODGE81



07 May 2018 09:46:56
Love to believe u scoob. We will soon find out if true! However if and it's a big if. DM has got a spare 50 mill kicking about then he sure as hell ain't giving it away. There will b something in it for him. I'm hoping for massive investment. Hope u r right.



07 May 2018 10:52:44
The only new board members will be ones who have comitted investment or have benn nominated by those who have invested. Souness does not fall into that catagory and would offer nothing at boardroom level anyway. We need someone like souness in a different role



07 May 2018 12:19:18
Souness to represent Brian Kennedy is one rumour
