It really does amaze me of the ignorance of some folk on here about RFC finances. Cosgrove, Dykes and Shankland are at our financial level, players in England who are proven are not.

Get your head out of the financial sand.

Free agents from england who are proven goalscorers are not out our reach. Charlie austin or pay few mill for Vydra. both far better than once mentioned.

Sheep are apparently wanting £4m for Cosgrove.
Livi and utd, it's £2m for dykes and shankland.
Is that our financial level? 🤔
Which players linked with us in England are out of reach financially? 🤔.

Cold hard cash will prize Cosgrove, Dykes and Shankland away from their clubs at bargain prices, if RFC want them.

The only players we get from England are those on loan, and us paying top dollar to get them. How many have made the grade. If we want another one or two from England, who are proven goalscorers, they would have to get their pay cut by half. We are now competing with the Blackpools, Charltons and Tranmeres for bang average players - Joe Worral, Dodoo, Ojo?

We really need to open our eyes up to what we can afford. At this moment Joe Worrall would cost us £5 Million and is on £27,000 per week.

What we can maybe afford are players aged 37 who take massive pay cuts from their £90,000 / week salary?

Can anyone tell me who is out there, who is similar, but younger, than Defoe and would be willing to take £60,000 off his pay to join RFC?

Shankland is a typical striker converts a lot of scraps and reminds me of a boyd type player and would properly do quite well for us I'd go with a cheeky 500 k and see how it goes not a massive amount to gamble with and could still sell on as is young enough. Cosgrove not worth 4 million, dykes wouldn't go for 1 million either Livingston would take a lot less.

£4 million for farmer Cosgrove? Ooft. Mind you they wanted 9 million for McKenna.

Good deal that yately.
Not convinced the sheep and Dundee United will accept 'bargain offers' for they're most valuable players.

Mandy 93, regarding dykes i did post last week that we'd probably b able to get dykes for around the 750k mark and £1million maximum.

No way are we going to pay around £1 million for a 3rd rate 3rd choice striker like Dykes.

Very likely Alfie will still be here and if not then a Quallity replacement will be needed as a 1st choice. Not a bench warmer.

I believe that we could get some players from down south without only being loans but due to the overpricing and large wages we would have to be very selective about this.
Further to this I do not believe we should look at paying out millions on any striker in Scotland. Although I like the fact that Scottish teams are starting to move away from being a bargain house for smaller English teams I do not believe £4m for Cosgrove is great value for us. For example we got Morelos for £1m. We should continue to scour Europe for talent at better value.
The only one I believe we should go for is Dykes and no more than £600k.

Call me old fashioned or a dreamer, but, i genuinely think we have a few young guns in the youth rank who will be used next season, we are not shopping in Harrods for players i know that, but, some players in the Prem and Championship would relish the challenge of playing for a massive club with amazing supporters, and SG is a pull as manager, all is not lost, we won't be spending fortunes, but i believe we will get a bit more quality in. Remember the dhims are going for 9'5* in a row, and it needs to be stopped, so patience lads, let that lot go on the phone lines and newspaper forum foaming at the mouth, let's keep our powder dry and await lift off, we live in their heads they can't enjoy success as long as we exist, and i laugh my head off at the drivel they come out with, 4 tainted titles with no Rangers in the league, and they are proud of that, they have no shame, since 1888. let's stick together like never before, us against the world if you will. Rangers first Rangers always, keep safe bears and bearettes,
