Allan McGregor ‘got stuck right into Craig Whyte’


Recommended Posts

They could all have transferred over and we'd have got something for each of them even if it was only £200k per player. Was that too much to ask ?

 

Agreed, I wish everyone of them nothing but misfortune.

How do you know that Rab? There were no guarantees, there never is in football. It was a chance and huge gamble our club could not afford to take.

Thankfully.

 

Look, the notion that we wouldn't have got a fee for these players is absolutely ridiculous. They screwed us to increase their bank balance.

 

If you have no problem with that fine, but dont try and make out they helped us by doing it.

Is it? Why was there no bids for any of them when they had been upfor sale for 3 years previous? The world knew we were a selling club, the world knew we were desperate, the world knew we accepted the first offer for players 9 times out of 10, the world knew our entire squad was up for sale.

 

You are clearly underestimating our perilous state when we came out of administration. We needed financial help immediately to avoid another quick administration, had even a couple of those players who fans claim are traitors tuped over and been on our newco wage bill our club would have been back down the financial swanny within days, if not weeks. It simply was not possible to keep them with their big contracts, it was impossible. Chuckles Green played a blinder and fans fell for it. I just can't see how them leaving didn't help when it's clear the club needed them off the wage bill as soon as possible. Waiting for mythical bids was never an option.

We were in a very different position than previously. Any bid would have been accepted.
