herbergeehh Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 If Ferguson goes, we should at least get 3 million pounds - right? That's a minimum - even though Gers has said they don't want to up their bid, we COULD get a bit more.. In addition, we won't owe Rangers anything, which could mean some of those £2m+ could go to another signing.. ? IF this happens, I would like us to go for a quality striker. A cheeky bid for Robbie Keane anyone? Don't know if he's interested in moving away from London, but at least Defoe/Kanoute has begun to take control over the two places upfront.. my point is really, as long as Thommo stays injury free - he can take Bazza's place any day of the week IMO. However, he is injury prone - and without Bazza he would really be our only attacking central midfielder... well, Tugay... Therefore, a quality striker like Robbie Keane would've been brilliant....
Radagast Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 “Have you seen Blackburn? It’s not New York. I could never understood why Ferguson went from Ibrox to Ewood Park. I hope he comes back - we can win the championship with someone like that.” Well neither is dirty cold glasgow either. At least we dont care whether people are catholic or prodestant. Get off your high horse, boy. Im sorry for defending my town, to some idiot of a swede who barely even has a football career. Muppet. And in the process talking @#/? about something you clearly know nothing about (as T4E pointed out). Take your moronic generalisations somewhere else. And why dont you take yourself off somewhere else, if you care so bloody much about those 2 bigot filled clubs. Your right in fact, there is no relegious problems in Glasgow, everbody loves each other and at rangers celtic games there are no such songs as 'soon there will be no prodestants at all' or 'up to pur knees in fenian blood', i take it all back i was making it up. Ah, the intellectual speaks. Look, sonny, noone says Glasgow is perfect. Noone says there's no religious divide. But I'm not having a little no-nothing runt like you deriding family and friends of mine based on a generalisation.
philipl Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 Well at least there is nothing to discuss concerning Barry Ferguson and Rangers

This from a person who can't even spell Protestant.
92er Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 Jan-it says on teletext that O'Neill might be interested in signing Yorke.
Jan Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 Well, if anyone cn get anything out of the waster, he can. Personally I hope they're just recyclling the summer story
pg Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 Why would we need the next Duff, when we already have a perfectly good player on the left in... no, I wont turn this thread into another one of 'those' threads by mentioning 'his' name... Voldemort!?!?
mattjansen Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 If you look through what John Williams are saying i get the feeling Rangers took a long shot, they only made the bid as they didnt think we could pay. From Footballrumours.info On the remaining money owed to Rangers from Ferguson's move to Blackburn, he added: "First of all the outstanding sum is not as much as £2.5m but yes, there is still a fee which we are due to pay Rangers as part of Barry's transfer. "But it's a non-issue because there is no question that we will not pay the money. "We have a contract with Glasgow Rangers and we have no intention of reneging on it. That amount of money is due in August of this year and it will be duly paid
Neil Weaver Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 And just to expand a little on mattj's post above, this from the Daily Rangers, sorry Record, that well known Scottish tabloid, with those quotes and a few more words of wisdom. And a bit of tabloid journo-ese of course....... We (Rovers) want Baz more than you Rangers
cn174 Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 Well according to BBC he's handed in a written transfer request Transfer Request
Paul Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 Rovers have anounced Barry Feguson has put in a transfer request. John Williams has said the "situation will now be considered by the board"
AndyC Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 Let the games commence! Great potential but if he wants to walk back to glasgow having failed in the premier league - that's his choice. Come on Graeme - do us a favour and big 6 mill for him, so that Rangers have to match it! Actually - forget that - souness has more loyalty to Murray than he does to us!
Blackburn Ender Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 That seems clear then. Rovers can now issue a statement saying Ferguson has handed in a transfer request and the club will listen to offers from any club prepared to meet Rovers' valuation of (oooh, shall we say) £6.5 million? If the fee is not met, we do not sell and Ferguson gets on with it. The ironic parallells with the unsavoury Savage situation will not be lost on many in the football world. Roll on February 1 and an end to these unedifying and moronic transfer window speculations. The players concerned should have more integrity than this.
Scotty Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 What a pathetic man. He's just a failure in my eyes - failed to produce at Rovers and now opted for the easy life back home. Pathetic - hope he never wears the shirt again.
Yorkshire Blue Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 We must name our price and not budge. That price MUST be in excess of £5million.
Ossydave Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 Sod him then. I expected more from him and he hasn't delivered. I don't really want him to go but it's hardly a Duff-esque loss.
roversfan1 Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 This comes as no surprise and as Ive said before in another thread the man was never fit to captain the club based on his effort on the pitch or attitude. We get £3.5 for him and that will pay for Savage and I know who I would rather see in the blue and white ! Send the 'wee ned' back to 'big club' Rangers where he can look like a 'decent player' in a pub league.
mhead Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 What is going on in that guy's head.After 2 months we had to nurse him back from injury and now he wants to leave. His package will have cost us £10m incl. Agents,wages and signing on fees. No wonder he's been the most un-inspiring Captain in 40 years.A lot of fans who have backed him will be a lot wiser today. Minimum £5m.
rog of the rovers Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 What a pathetic man. He's just a failure in my eyes - failed to produce at Rovers and now opted for the easy life back home. Pathetic - hope he never wears the shirt again. Agree completely, total lack of ambition for a player out of his depth.
