Rangers Rumours Archive April 27 2021

27 Apr 2021 21:12:44
Wee update guys on diog. I'm hearing that hibs will accept no less than 3.5 mill with a sell on clause. They have no interest in part loan deal. So looks like the deal is dead from gers point of view.

Also as been reported hagi to Seville. However the deal I'm hearing is rangers want. 6.5mill with 15% sell on clause. Seville wanting to pay 4.5 mill.

27 Apr 2021 21:32:36
Hibs are having a laugh mate if they're indeed wanting £3.5million as far as we're concerned anyway!
He's not even a full senior international yet. I think hibs have the Celtic calculator here guys 🤔I would pay no more than £1.5million for doig.

27 Apr 2021 21:37:21
I’d be asking around £7-£8m for hagi blueguy, he’s better than when we signed him, how much did we pay? Was it £4m?

27 Apr 2021 22:11:18
I know Hagi gets some mixed reviews from Rangers fans on here but surely he is worth more than £4.5M Seville want to pay and I’d say more than £6.5 we are asking. Celtic get £11M for frimpong and god only knows how they got their money back on Kilmala we need to start getting decent fees for players. Hagi good player he is I think he should be a sellable asset but I’d definitely be looking for more like £10M.

27 Apr 2021 22:25:03
Try 8 million for hagi all day long we are champions played good in Europe would never sell him for 4.5 million.

27 Apr 2021 22:25:39
A would pay 2 million for Doig move on calvin.

27 Apr 2021 23:47:10
Totally agree. Rangers should be looking for at least 8 to 10 million for hagi and although I rate diog, no way on earth, he is worth 3.5 mill.

28 Apr 2021 01:01:38
Thought lazio were in for 11 mill euros? definitely think hagi will be away tho. bring in good money an not really a hard player to replace.

28 Apr 2021 05:38:36
Yeah £3.5m a bit much I’d say £2m is a maximum I would pay. Bassey hasn’t done much to impress tbh. The fact he isn’t getting more game time suggests he isn’t impressing the staff either but o v that’s just my impression. Another who may benefit from a loan deal in England.

28 Apr 2021 07:21:23
I'm sure hibs knocked back 2 million for doig from a championship team.

28 Apr 2021 07:26:53
Celtic didn’t get 11millii for ping pong that was the deal including wages.

They also only get the money back from kimala if he hits his ads on targets.

28 Apr 2021 07:39:35
12 minimum for hagi 👌💙💙💙💙💙.

28 Apr 2021 08:14:28
Kja91, you are correct re Frimpong, exaggerated 11m from the Tim’s media spin.
4 m was his wages and around 1.5 m was agent fee also the 11 m was in euros and the rest in instalments if he meets targets etc. Not 11m straight to them as they like to con their supporters into thinking they are loaded.
They are skint.

28 Apr 2021 08:39:21
Kja9 not that I’m in the know but the way I read it was Klimala went for £3.5m. It would rise to £5m if he reaches targets. How they got that I’ll never know but to potentially make a profit in a flop who hardly kicked a ball never mind scored many. That’s good business again by Celtic, they do seem to get the money when selling players, regardless if they added o. A few million for frimpong and a few others they still get top dollar. We need to be following suit this summer if we’re selling any of Hagi, kamara, bb, Kent n Alfie. Clubs will pay the money if they know u won’t budge.

28 Apr 2021 10:16:36
Big eck am not sure they are skint? They certainly have more cash than us at the moment anyway.

28 Apr 2021 10:52:24
Don’t believe everything you get spun my friend.

28 Apr 2021 11:09:33
Some1 mentioned Celtic got 11 for frimpong. 11 million was supposobly the whole of the deal including add ons. fee expected was 9.5 but that included his wages also plus celtics sell on that they had to pay back. all in all more like they got about 5 million and sure that be paid over a few installments but shhh don't tell Celtic fans that.

28 Apr 2021 13:21:21
Skint my arse, they are owned by one of the richest people in Europe, and backed by a few others

They are as far behind as a good manager and £30m, they will get that quite easily.

28 Apr 2021 14:25:23
How much do U expect Celtic to spend this summer Tom?
Do u expect them to spend £30m?
They’ll prob get £10m for Eduoard, £8m for ajer, £7m for Christie, £2m for bolingoli,
I’d imagine ajeti, barkas could be sold if they find buyers but likely at half what they paid.
So that’s kickin around the £30m mark give it take. Plus saved wages of Duffy and elyanoussi (I know it’s not spelt correctly) so that’s a lot of saved wages, add that to the money they brought in in January from frimpong and elhamed and it’s mor me like £40m. So they will have a war chest, although they will need around 12 players to have a decent team again.

28 Apr 2021 15:09:55
strange then how their new dof is known solely for discovering youth and developing them and known also to liewells son and howe known for same. methinks keeping a reserve pot for legal settlements.

28 Apr 2021 20:41:57
Footballing value for Hagi i would say for a 22 year old international with European experience and big potential would be round about the 7 mark. But and here is the thing that adds to his value he has commercial value due to his deal with the likes of Pepsi. I would say realistically we should be asking for at least 9 million for him as he could earn more staying and helping us into champions league.

28 Apr 2021 22:09:53
Start at £10m and see what we get. We need to overprice our players and meet somewhere just under that. U never get what u ask for Sony should always start high.

29 Apr 2021 02:18:31
XPLAIN HOW that's STRANGE THEN PLEASE?

ITS THE MODERN WAY TO BUY CHEAP, DEVELOP AND SELL, THEY WILL SELL, THEN THEY WILL BUY, SOMETHING THEY HAVE DONE VERY SUCCESSFULLY

YOU THINK THEY WILL EVER BE SKINT AS LONG AS they're OWNED BY THE IRISHMAN AND HAVE 60,000 ST MONEY .

?
HOW DO YOU KNOW THE NEW DOF IS KNOWN SOLELY FOR ANYTHING, THAT IS STRANGE, ANYWAY
EXCUSE THE CAPITALS, MY MEDS KICKED IN AND I can't BE BOTHERED DOING IT AGAIN.

27 Apr 2021 09:46:16
Aswel as doig, we are also showing interest in martin boyle. we have a mutual friend and was told this yesterday. Not sure he would slot in tbh as wright has done great.

27 Apr 2021 12:27:18
Think Boyle would struggle like jones and barker as he likes to have space to run into. Spl teams seem to sit deep against us 🤔.

27 Apr 2021 13:12:13
Yeah agree mate.

27 Apr 2021 15:42:11
Agreed bgate, think he’d be like another MOH.

27 Apr 2021 17:13:32
Nobody could be as poor as ohallaron, a wage thief

Should not even have been allowed in the change room,

27 Apr 2021 17:28:38
Truly fellow bears i don't think we need martin boyle, as i think we have a terrific talent in scott wright 👌
I think this signing of wright will prove to be a masterstroke by our club 👌🇬🇧 Going forward i think he'll be superb for us.

27 Apr 2021 18:00:53
Teams press rangers now having a player with outright pace would destroy them with balls over the top to a player with pace we are missing a rapid striker big time or it would make them no press as much either way it would be a win.

27 Apr 2021 18:50:00
Sakala is that man 👍🏼.

27 Apr 2021 20:08:02
Rfc92,i'm totally in agreement with IGWT, in regards to why gerrard is very close to signing fashion sakala, as he's very quick 👍🇬🇧.

27 Apr 2021 20:56:17
I simply wouldn't sign someone called Martin Boyle.

28 Apr 2021 01:36:41
WHY WOULD THAT BE mate

YOU IN FAVOUR OF RANGERS RETURNING TO THE 1960S?

28 Apr 2021 04:42:22
Why not livibear?

28 Apr 2021 05:40:05
Yip Livibear would u elaborate on that one mate? Sounds pretty racist to me. Maybe I’m missing something so and u can enlighten us all?

28 Apr 2021 08:16:59
Agree, Boyle would not be able to function with 10 men behind the ball. Wright is far better anyway.

28 Apr 2021 08:22:40
🤣🤣🤣 banter mate.

28 Apr 2021 08:42:54
Hmmm 🤔 I think maybe u meant it at the time, were u drunk perhaps? Either way mate, joke or not there’s no room for any form of racism in our club. Our managers a catholic, we’ve had catholic captains, abrasive crossed himself after scoring that penalty the other night. We only recently had our own player racially abused and made a very big stand against it, so no rangers fan should be making these remarks mate. We’re better than that 👍🏼.

28 Apr 2021 09:04:54
Ingerrardwetrust I don't drink mate my mum was a Catholic I served three tours of northern Ireland and I've seen bigotry and it's results that let me see from a young age that it's not worth it, but you be all woke and high and mighty it goes with the times. No room for racism anywhere and in your world no room for a laugh and a joke.

28 Apr 2021 09:06:16
Boyle is crap anyway and not better than what we have or even what we got rid of.

28 Apr 2021 09:35:59
So Livibear, it wasn't bigotry? It was only a joke? Can you explain what exactly was funny about saying you wouldn't sign a player because of his name? Don't give us the "woke" pass-the-blame nonsense either. Because this sort of talk, backed up with your pitiful excuse, has no place here.

28 Apr 2021 09:53:39
Because the guy I work with is called gav Boyle and i sent him the screen shot as we have a joke about it since pontins banned people with the surname Boyle. He is a Tim and one of my best mates.

28 Apr 2021 12:26:07
IGWT Steven Gerrard did go to a Catholic school on the recommendation of his primary school teacher Because the Cardinal Heenan School had a superior football reputation over more local schools. Read his Wikipedia
🇦🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⚽️🇬🇧👍.

28 Apr 2021 12:29:11
Ingerrardwetrust. not that it mattera but the gaffer is not a catholic.

28 Apr 2021 12:49:43
Paul correct. I had forgot to say that he wasn’t
🇦🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⚽️🇬🇧👍.

28 Apr 2021 15:12:03
That’s Gav Boyle all over tinternet then.

28 Apr 2021 15:16:54
Hmmm I disagree I believe he is a catholic, he has a daughter named Lourdes for god sake.
However, as Paul said it doesn’t matter but that was my
Point in the 1st place, cause Livibear had insinuated he didn’t want Martin Boyle because of his name. Which is insinuating he doesn’t want a catholic playing for rangers. So my point was that it doesn’t matter, Why should it matter? If I’m wrong n he isn’t a catholic fair enough but I thought he was.

28 Apr 2021 15:26:10
Livibear I hadn’t t read your reply mate, being honest I don’t see what part Of your post was funny? Most jokes are accompanied with something making it obvious it’s a joke ie 😂 or 🤣 or lol?
I fail to see what was funny mate. And certainly I’m not giving it the high and mighty patter lol my das a Roman Catholic and attends chapel every week, my wee brother aswell but without the chapel, so I’m quite balanced In Terms of these things. I just think the statement u made was pretty convincing. If u were joking fair enough mate only u know that. A just don’t like racism bigotry sexism etc. I’m certainly not trying to be fashionable as u are now insinuating. If u think that I’m being fashionable by saying what I said then it kind of proves u meant what u said, most people don’t agree with those kind of ideals anymore mate times have changed people are educated regarding these things now. Anyway no want an argument mate all the best 👍🏼.

28 Apr 2021 17:27:35
Not sure its really matters what his daughter name is? Non religous people don't often look into things like that. he went to a catholic school for its football programme. But is not a catholic. These things are easily researched.

28 Apr 2021 17:58:26
Fair enough Paul, If I’m wrong I stand corrected. I will however look into it as u suggest as I was pretty sure on it. But fair doos mate. Nothing wrong with being wrong sometimes. 👍🏼.

28 Apr 2021 22:22:01
Ingerrardwetrust, my joke was between me and my mate I couldn't really care about your opinion on it.

28 Apr 2021 22:47:42
I had a good wee look into Stevie Gs life story as much as I could online. Different sources. I came up with this:
Stevie attended the catholic high school, as u have stated, because his old p. e teacher advised him to go to that school due it’ having better football teams. Also though what yous didn’t mention is it’s a sports college so it’s set up to specialise in sports anyway, it’s out with his catchment area also. However what yous didn’t mention, he also attended a Roman Catholic primary school, St Michaels. So that would suggest to me he’s a catholic.
Next thing I read is his family are all catholics. Just for examples, His cousin Anthony is a footballer (predominantly catholic name) he also sadly lost his older cousin, as we all know, in the hillsborough disaster, young kid of 10years old Jon-Paul (may he rest in peace) he attended St Columbus Roman Catholic primary school, he was also an altar boy, his 2 older cousins Donna ridland and Paula kadiri recall babysitting him and how he was a lively kid and was named after the pope.
Stevie and Alex were married in a catholic ceremony at St monans Catholic Church in Buckinghamshire on the 16th of June 2007. The daily mail actually stated both he and Alex are practising catholic’s. Takes us onto my next point that they’re 3rd daughter, Lourdes, named after the french town in which the virgin Mary is said to have appeared to a 14 year old girl In 1858 and which sees millions of catholics visit the site each year. Is that a coincidence?
Putting all that information together and I’m sorry guys but it’s pretty clear that Stevie G is infact a catholic, as yous told me, it’s easy to find if u look into it. I said I’d admit if I was wrong, but I’m not. Cheers guys 👍🏼.

29 Apr 2021 06:00:31
So your joke Livibear was between u and your Celtic supporting pal from work who doesn’t use this site but u decided to make the joke and post it in this site? Then screenshot it and send him it? Would it not has been easier to just send him it? Wasn’t just my oppinion on it mate there was a few people with opinions on your bigoted post mate. But if that’s your wishes al keep my opinions to myself regarding your posts in future. No probs mate 👍🏼.

29 Apr 2021 12:21:57
Igwt. What I had read on his Wikipedia states non catholic As I don’t have time to do some detective work, That’s what thought was true. But hey ho well done give yourself a gold ⭐️ 🇦🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⚽️🇬🇧👍.

29 Apr 2021 16:13:44
🤣🤣 I read that as well so you're not wrong, cunny mate, I just knew what I knew. I don’t mind admitting am wrong as I showed mate but if you’re right you’re right. I thought u were semi retired in oz living the good life mate 👍🏼🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇦🇺🇬🇧 u should have all the time in the world lol.

29 Apr 2021 16:17:50
Martin Boyle would be better suited to the Australian Olympic squad not Rangers. He's the biggest cheat in the league who finds it difficult to stay on his feet.

30 Apr 2021 03:06:07
Igwt. Yes iam semi retired mate Hope you are keeping well 🇦🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⚽️🇬🇧👍.

30 Apr 2021 15:26:55
Am good mate cheers. Not as good as u living you’re best life in oz 🇦🇺 Good for u mate wish it was me lol 🇬🇧👍🏼.

27 Apr 2021 06:58:20
Heard a wee story that, if SG and his backroom staff bring in a player for say 1million then develop to a superstar and sell for a profit say 10million sg and his backroom are due £100k per million would a club allow such a clause.

27 Apr 2021 09:34:51
Doubt it very much but could believe 100k per 10 million a 1% bonus doubt we are giving away 10 percent of a players value to coaching staff.

27 Apr 2021 09:35:04
Sounds like a celtic doomsday theory to me.

27 Apr 2021 09:43:07
Jackie McNamara had something similar at Dun Utd and ended up getting sacked as he was exploiting the system for his own personal gain.
Haven't heard anything about this at Rangers for Gerrard.

27 Apr 2021 09:54:40
Genuinely cannot see this being correct.

27 Apr 2021 10:23:18
Mrp and others this is old story about two years old.
Never really revealed anything last time.

27 Apr 2021 12:13:15
Can’t see that being true,
Like John says was an old story that came about a few years ago.

27 Apr 2021 16:05:59
Punter
This is standard development clause. Basically there as pro per clause to ensure manager maximises club benefits and no howlers. Any manager would want to maximise his position but if he doesn't he's out on his arse. Take Morinho, he wasn't being dire just not up to Managerial Spurs standards.

27 Apr 2021 17:17:22
It’s possible all right, probable even

All contracts are different, especially the higher you go and whatever you agree with the owners to encourage you to stay and develop talent

I could certainly see beale and co, having an agreement like this.

27 Apr 2021 18:02:12
10% is to much tho 😂.

27 Apr 2021 18:02:58
So does it work the other way say we buy someone for 4 million he fails and we only sell him for a fraction of the price then SG and the back room staff give rangers % back?

28 Apr 2021 01:39:35
KJ, don't be silly

would you expect to pay your bosses if your work wasnt up to scratch

if you worked that is.

28 Apr 2021 01:40:52
this would be a contracted deal to keep the employees at the club

not for the employees to allow the owners to stay,

28 Apr 2021 09:38:34
Whether this true or not I don't see SG going out his way to sell any players for decent money. If it is true then it shows he has more integrity than we thought, as he certainly hasn't cashed in on anybody.

28 Apr 2021 13:35:21
Stevie doesn’t need more cash, he has plenty and his future earnings will probably be astronomical anyway

No reply was the answer (kJ)

Rfc , 10% isn’t too much at all, if beale and co recommend a young player, get him in for 200k, coach him to first team success and rangers benefit, then down the line, sell for 12m, that’s 1.2 for them e, as 8.8 for Rangers

Win win.
