Fabio Cardosos contract has been terminated. On club website. Looks like we are clearing the wage bill and cutting our losses.



30 Jul 2018 15:54:54
I can’t believe we couldn’t get something for a guy his age after paying £1.5mill for him. One thing that lot across he city are good at is getting money for players no matter how good or bad they are. We just constantly cut our losses.



30 Jul 2018 16:02:06
we are very short in that area. I would have kept him.



30 Jul 2018 16:44:12
Cardoso was absolutely dreadful that's why we have cut our losses . No way would I have kept him under any circumstances. He wasn't even good enough to get a fee, nobody would pay for him.



30 Jul 2018 16:52:50
I don't no how the directors make their money th y keep selling the players on the cheap. and now I hear they have agreed to give Ashley the tops to sell I can't believe it.



30 Jul 2018 18:25:02
Ashley had a clause in the contract that if they match the contract then they get it. So this will be a lot more favourable towards rangers.



30 Jul 2018 18:54:54
Why are we not at least selling these players for free with a decent sell on clause in case they come good. No point just releasing them just wastes money we could badly use.



30 Jul 2018 19:22:14
Just been announced he has signed four year deal in Portugal.



31 Jul 2018 00:19:58
To me it’s seems like Cardoso lost his bottle after his broken nose against Motherwell - he looks like a poser and wasn’t confident after that, word got out he’s a bottle bag and nobody was willing to pay a fee! That’s why Gerrard would never have played him, no heart!



31 Jul 2018 09:09:06
By releasing them we save instant money on wages.



31 Jul 2018 09:58:46
Agree mols all depends what is negotiated re exit deal.



31 Jul 2018 10:05:35
He is still young and known as quiet a good young talent back in Portugal we could of got at least 300,000 or so for him with a sell on clause think it's ridiculous how we just keep letting players go by paying them off.



31 Jul 2018 11:27:33
Whats ridiculous deanobear is that we actually paid money to get these clowns in the first place. Did we get any offers for cardoso? No! Why? Because he is useless. We couldn't get 300k for him because no one would pay it. that's why it was mutual termination, please try and understand this. As for a sell on clause, you're joking surely lol.



31 Jul 2018 16:16:05
Don't you think it is strange that 12hours after cardoso leaves he signs a four year deal.



31 Jul 2018 17:56:47
Ralph ten he knew he had a deal and club would not pay a fee hence negotiate a free.



31 Jul 2018 19:18:11
Ralph10 nothing at all strange about it. His agent lined up a club for him, Rangers freed him with no compensation, he gets a signing on fee, we free up his wage, satisfactory outcome. That's the way it works.



01 Aug 2018 10:58:22
Spot on dutycalls👍.



01 Aug 2018 13:32:19
Duty calls IoM says he got a million guys like u and I can't understand people don't leave on a free.



30 Jul 2018 14:13:06
Craig Levin interviewed on BT said Lafferty's head has been turned by Rangers and they are awaiting an improved offer.



30 Jul 2018 12:12:53
Official Rangers sight saying a mutual agreement with Cardoso to terminate his contract.



30 Jul 2018 13:28:04
How can we not sell a player we paid 1.3m for 12 months ago even if it’s for a crap fee surely better than paying him off.



30 Jul 2018 13:40:51
Kpnuts, he was that bad we were struggling to give him away! A legacy of Pedro😭😡😡.



30 Jul 2018 13:42:13
Simple, really, KPNuts10, you can't sell something that nobody wants to buy.



30 Jul 2018 13:43:32
KPnuts10 - we've probably tried to but he's likely dug his heels in to try and force a mutual termination so he's able to accrue a signing on fee for his next team.



30 Jul 2018 13:54:02
Getting rid Cardross great move. He cost peanuts and now saving significantly because he's on his way. SG wants CH and this gives scope.



30 Jul 2018 13:56:34
His pay off will probably include a deduction to let him go for free as it will be easier for him to find a club, if we had looked for a fee then he would have probably got a higher pay off or he would have dragged his heels.



30 Jul 2018 14:01:46
Cannot believe that person Pedro wasted millions on him, Herrera and Pena! Money wasted we won’t see any return on! If they can cut there losses with the likes of him, I wish they would do the same with Hodson, Halliday etc.



29 Jul 2018 22:19:27
Chris Sutton at it again He thinks Kyle Lafferty would be an "underwhelming" signing Mmm Anything he says these days I reckon it's the contrary You forget he scored against Celtic more than any other player in the SPL Kyle would be even better with better service at Rangers!

C'mon Rangers make a £500,000 bid if rejected then let's forget about it and move on

I can't be bothered with a possible 4 weeks of this crap Just like Jamie Walker all over again!



30 Jul 2018 07:11:42
He’s a bench warmer nothing more.



30 Jul 2018 08:03:12
500k is a fair offer. Offer it then move on if its rejected.



30 Jul 2018 09:41:22
According to the Record, we're going back with a £300k bid. Expect this to be knocked back. I reckon £600k will get him.



30 Jul 2018 09:50:20
Aye stop the daft offers get the deal done.



30 Jul 2018 10:52:24
I would take Lafferty for anything under 750k I know he’s in the last year of his contract but he’s still got 3/ 4 years in him. he will add goals when others are struggling he know the pressure of playing for Rangers so wouldn’t be fazed when he comes in. You can’t argue with the big goals he scored first time around.

This transfer makes sense to me all day long.



30 Jul 2018 12:39:17
Sutton's having flashbacks to Lafferty scoring in every title decider during titles 52, 53 and 54.

It's like flashbacks to nam. Scarred.



30 Jul 2018 12:42:27
For once I agree with Sutton.



30 Jul 2018 13:18:52
Would be a decent squad player especially if the sell on fee from Waghorn covers it. Still like to see a Defoe or solanke on a years loan.



30 Jul 2018 13:57:20
If Chris Sutton knew as much about football as he thinks, he would be a manager or coach, not a rentagob!



30 Jul 2018 13:57:48
In all fairness to Sutton, it is a bit underwhelming but it should still be an effective signing.



30 Jul 2018 14:43:39
Sutton’s at it I’m afraid. He doesn’t want a proven old firm scorer at Ibrox. Big man will definitely score against them and instil that on the other 2. Come home big guy.



30 Jul 2018 14:45:07
Craig Levein seems to have a standard retort for Rangers offers
"He's had his head turned by Rangers".



30 Jul 2018 16:21:27
'underwhelming' but hard working and aggressive will do me.

Every single 'bigger' name signing we've gotten excited about since returning has been nothing short of a disaster on good wages.



30 Jul 2018 19:54:31
From what gregco and such are saying, there is 100% NOT a sell on fee for waghorn. The only people saying so are the rangers observer who are allegedly linked to the board. And they only came out for it after fans on twitter said they hoped there was a clause purely because his possible transfer fee was so high. Also i think lafferty IS an underwhelming signing and expected far better options up top.



31 Jul 2018 09:12:34
Why on earth would you want to be fair to Sutton? The guy like Hartson is a big green arse.



29 Jul 2018 22:52:25
Think middleton will be a stand out this year. We play much more direct with him and Ejaria on the park. The lad sadiq looks like he can shift as well.



30 Jul 2018 01:49:01
Ejaria is wasted in deeper midfield though - he's playing far too restricted. He's a creative attacking mid. Gerrard seems to be getting a lot right the past couple of matches but still his propensity for playing some players wildly out of position remains. He has a full squad to play everyone in the right position. Shouldn't waste players!



30 Jul 2018 07:12:40
I’ll trust he knows what he’s doing.



30 Jul 2018 08:28:55
Thought ejaria had a poor game yesterday - didn't link up with halliday and Middleton on the left and seemed to wander to a deeper inside position - no point in coming really deep into his own half to do his one party trick - felt he could offer more if helped others around him - was pleasantly surprised by young Middleton- who is always determined to get to the by line and put a cross in - Goldson is just different class - his positional play and confidence on the ball is superb - a competent display which resulted in 3 good goals -.



30 Jul 2018 10:13:41
Really like Middleton. My instinct was that he would be used as an impact player but the more I see him the more I think he's got to start.



29 Jul 2018 22:36:47
Hearts have now confirmed that Lafferty is for sale. A Qatar club and South Korean team are also interested but his preference is to come to us. Hopefully we can get this over the line as he's a better player than the 1st time round.
