Cotter 0 Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 Hmmm. If we get that much for him I'll be shocked. If true hopefully we can get two from Juhasz, Cuellar and Goian with the cash boost. Thanks for the memories big man, your wink will live on in smilies forever.:boogie: 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dutchy Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 It would be good to get that sort of money for him and it's also good that he's hanging about until after the qualifier. I suspect we'd be in real trouble in defenceif he went right away. Ally could play a young guy, but i'm not so sure that's what he'll be doing this season, especially in Europe. Hope I'm wrong and some kids get a chance though. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny 0 Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Poor guy - hankering for a move to the riches and prestige of the EPL, and has to make do with Qatar. Thought it's being claimed we've rejected the offer. As an aside, did anyone else notice how utterly depressed he looked coming out the tunnel? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny 0 Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Disappointing, although Ally obviously believes we have to hold onto every defender we have. But Bougherra's heart is not in it at all, and he's not going to excel on the pitch as a result. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't think he played that badly on Sat, although he definitely made the wrong decision on a couple of occasions. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
calscot 0 Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Part of the reason for turning it down may be that he's not interested in going there which makes sense. Why leave a club Rangers to go to an obscure league in a difficult country to live in, for a wee bit more money? We may not be the most attractive option these days, but surely it's the Premiership that Boogie wants to dump us for? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
