ian1964 10,475 Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 RANGERS' top goalscorer Kris Boyd admits the uncertainty surrounding the club could prevent him signing a new contract at Ibrox. Rangers are leading Old Firm rivals Celtic at the top of the Clydesdale Bank Premier League by seven points and have a game in hand ahead of their meeting at Ibrox on Sunday. However, the cash-strapped Glasgow club are looking for a new owner, and amid the uncertainty manager Walter Smith and his backroom staff are working without contracts. Boyd has been offered an extension to his current deal which runs out in four months' time but the 26-year-old striker will continue to monitor developments at the club. "I love the Rangers and I want to stay here, but there is a cloud hanging over the club which makes everything uncertain," he told The Times. "My hope is still that I will be in a Rangers jersey for years to come, but I have to say the club just doesn't feel secure at the moment. "I don't even know who the manager will be next season and I've already had three managers in my time at Rangers. "People say to me, 'Kris, just go and sign' but it's not as easy as that. "There is uncertainty at Ibrox, and I don't want to be boxed in to a corner where, if it turns out that other players have to leave, then I'm the guy left in a situation where the club can't go on to the next level. "As much as I want to stay, I wouldn't stay in that situation." http://www.scotsman.com/spl/Kris-Boyd-voices-his-concerns.6107992.jp 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Preston Burke 0 Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 I totally understand that. He could even end up in a situation where he signs a new contract and within days/weeks we receive a bid for him and the club accepts it! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig 5,199 Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Gotta love the way he says "I love the Rangers" To be fair to the big fella he has done what the vast majority of players wouldn't do.... which is to not commit himself to nother club. Given he could have signed a pre-contract in January - which would no doubt have been very lucrative to him - he has not signed with anyone, which suggests to me that he would prefer to stay at Rangers, but is waiting to see what happens from a tability perspective. What he says bears our his actions in my opinion. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
