Check the official site which confirms this but doesn't state exactly what the squad is. Great news and the great thing about it is that it adds depth to the squad at a crucial time of the season!

Did you get a ticket Beattie?
-
Nah he made an appearance or two when he was quite young.
-
My guess of Gareth Barry is prob correct then!
-
Gareth Barry?

Gareth Southgate

Lol, agreed. He has to be the single worst commentator in the history of the game. I dont normally get that hot under the collar with commentators, journalists and the like but this chunt really hacks me off.

Fair enough. :cheers:

I wonder if the structure of player contracts could add to our debt? If you are paying a player �£10k per week regardless of the income you receive, this could potentially cause cashflow problems for which the club may then borrow money and incur interest, meaning our operating costs increase. If player wages were structured so that they received less money during periods where our income is lower, say during the close season, we could overload their wage during the season when we have regular income streams. The total amount of money we pay would not change it just might mean there's less need to dip into the overdraft which will cost us. I dont have any basis of fact for this theory and I'm not an accountant but what do you think?
-
Are there any specific one-off costs in the second half of the year that cause us to lose so much money compared with the first half? Also, is this a recurring trend because we seem to have a similar amount of income for each half of the year?

Yip, sad really. The EPL juggernaut shows no signs of slowing up either so the gulf is only going to widen unless Setanta decide to multiply our TV rights contract at least ten-fold. I do think the club ought to get smarter about marketing itself abroad. Celtic are doing a good job of opening up certain markets like Poland and Japan and we should do likewise. A strategic signing or two like Onetrick KnackeredMotor could make a real difference to our bottom line...

Well I wasn't too far off with Paul Lamber then.
-
That rings a bell now that you mention it Craig.
-
Good question. Cant think of many Scots in CL winning teams (assuming they've gone on to win the World Club Champs) apart from Paul Lambert?
-
Said to Juffery tonight as I went over to his to watch the game, "Get your money on Killie to win tonight as Gretna will really struggle with losing their top scorer and Killie got a decent result on Sunday" Cue much hilarity as goals 1, 2, 3 & 4 rolled in for Gretna. Added to that, Davie Crockett, or whatever his name is (the Setanta commentator), says "I wouldn't want to be Mrs Jeffries tonight". Dont know about you guys but I wouldn't want to be Mrs Jeffries any night of the week. That is all.

Hearts 0 : 4 Rangers - Player Ratings and MoM Poll
stewarty replied to Frankie's topic in Rangers Chat
It's a toss of the coin between Davis and Ferguson for me. -
Word is she's Belgian but decided to play for Holland because her 4th Cousin twice removed once visited Amsterdam and quite liked it.
-
Why not give it a go for a trial period. What harm can it do? You just make sure that everyone is aware that there will be zero tolerance on those who overdo things and that significant bad behaviour will result in the ban being put back in place. It's the same with this whole thing about not having an Old Firm game as a potential title decider. What harm would there be in potentially allowing one? If it doesn't work then fair enough but the SPL could do with having a grandstand finish now again.
-
The assumptions made in this article are, sadly, probably not too far from the truth. I just wonder what Sir Minty Moonbeams has up his sleeve that Jim Traynor claims he is privy to.
-
Rangers, Killie & Hibs all away wins - might be worth a couple of quid. What odds can I get on that Beattie?
-
Jesus, that's sickening. Poor guy,
-
The Jungle Jims will use their Suville Calculators to work it out differently. TGIFTW - my a***!
-
We should still have enough in our locker to get the result. For away games such as this, Walter's 4-5-1 actually makes sense as we can hit them on the break. If they want to play some more attacking players then thats fine by me.
-
Thats what Ossie Ardilles used to call them! :devil:

IIRC, the rule is that you cant play for more than two clubs in any given season so there would be nothing to stop him moving again next season if he wanted.
