For all we know, this might be a player that really wants to come to Rangers. And that's not your type of player?.

It’s an asset to want to play for Rangers.

 

Not so much an asset to duck out of your obligation to your employer.

Meanwhile, back in the real world, player does what he can to make a move happen.

 

Shocking.

Looks like a very straightforward "do not touch with a barge pole" to me. If he lacks the character to board a bus for his team I think it's very unlikely he'll be able to shoulder the weight of a Rangers shirt.

If he players for Swansea he can't play for another team this season. 

 

Swansea recalled him from a successful loan deal at Plymouth with the sole intention to sell him. 

 

Now they are threatening to play him with the sole purpose to stop him playing for another club thus season.

Not true, see my reply above to Scott post.

Fair enough but we've signed so many shrinking violets these last few years that I'm beyond wary of any more time wasters.

Think the player and Swansea are having a bit of a stand-off.  Quite normal when a player wants away.

 

Definitely wouldn't put Beale off.

Absolutely spot on. Raskin has had a similar stand off with Delia in Belgium yet nearly everyone on here is eager to have him signed up. Some relatively unknown lad on Swansea's books is attracting our attention but people are jumping to Swansea's defence? "Obligations to employers" "Don't touch with a barge pole" Calm down FFS! If it was Ronaldo I could understand it. All this lad is doing is using what little leverage he has to try and get move to a much bigger club for the opportunity to better himself. He's clearly bursting to join us. Cut him some slack!

TBH I am long past the standing-off situation in employment,having never done so,but should the situation have arisen where I had the chance to better myself,I would have done so.

Therefor I have no complaints against the boy for looking to the future.
