If money alone is your driver, yes, you're correct. 

Is there any other?

I do hope so, otherwise we'd be as well chucking it.

Fans might think like that but if you're a player leaving Rangers on £15,000/week and rocking up at Burnley for £50,000/week I think most players would think they've made progress.

 

Anyway, that's not the point, which is that calling other clubs "shit" is just daft.

Aside from THEM, obviously

Well of course. They ARE shit.

At Burnley and Sheffield United, you'll get to play at Anfield, Old Trafford, Emirates, Etihad and Spurs' shiny new stadium, with a global TV audience.  

 

At Rangers, you'll get to play at the Piggery, Fir Park, Toni Macaroni Arena and Easter Road, with a much smaller, parochial TV audience.

Well, blue movies pay well, I am told, for girls, and provided that they undertake a number of acts.

Like football, it is a short career. 

I don't think, however, that I would recommend it over another profession.

Alternatively why would clubs offer any significant money for a player in their last year of their contract? Hang on 6 months and you can talk to the player and get a deal set up ready for the summer.

 

Maybe we received inquires about Alfie and Kent last summer but the board deemed the offers as not worth taking? 

Have a look at over the city. Several examples. It’s a good time to buy at cut price. We do it too.

I'm sure Joe Aribo thought he'd get to play in those stadia too.

But we also chose not to - lad from Swansea springsnto mind. We offered them a fee, they rejected it, we moved on. 

 

Kent and Alfie will have something lined up, they are very good players who'll have options and offers.

The points stands, it’s a time when players are available at a cut price and we often see good players sold at that time. There was no word of interest last summer or January. 
 

We’ll see how good the offers are, and how well they do. I wish them the best but I don’t expect much from either.
