The disparity in resources between the two teams will mean Celtic will always be able to attract (and retain) higher quality players. Maybe you could close the gap through some kind of "Creative Accounting" scheme? 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punched above our weight and delivered some excellent results. Scotland will have 2 champions league teams from next season too. AYE WE GET THAT BUT HUV YI IMPROVED LIKE REALLY IMPROVED?! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He played the whole game like a spoiled brat in the huff. A fitting end. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whichever one it was that played in the 90’s, midfielder, awfully cheery guy. Always remember him being in everyone’s face in a Scott Brownesque sort of way the only difference being Scott Brown can play football 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A kinda David van Day look-a-like and play-a-like. He later was a Scottish Cup runner-up for Dundee United (see below) and a Scottish Cup winner with Motherwell. Ian Ferguson scored the winning goal in the 1987 SC final in which Iain Ferguson played for DU. Just to confuse things further there was another Ian Ferguson who bummed about with lower league sides such as Hearts, Raith and Ayr. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thepundit Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Ah well, the Euro dream is over (for about a month?..) I was worried Rangers would lose by 3 or 4 yesterday (as they were already as good as out) which could have had a negative psychological impact on our league season so in that respect it wasn’t too bad. Looks like that may have been Alfredo’s last game for us so I wish him well wherever he goes. His spell ended with a bit of a whimper though eh? They were saying on Superscoreboard the other day that Roofe is the highest paid player in Scotland so I doubt Rangers would sanction a transfer for £4m-£5m plus that kind of salary if a deal for Morelos wasn’t already agreed. (Especially given Rangers only play one up top and they’ve now got 5 forwards) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a club who posted an 11 million loss last June haven’t sold anyone for any notable fee in that time that I can recall and were paying an average of 200k year less than Celtic Now they are paying the highest wages in Scotland?

That was actually per person mate. The average salary for Celtic player is c.£250k per annum than a Rangers player. Both clubs are miles ahead of the rest though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that’s what I meant Especially at a time of real financial uncertainty I imagine clubs will be looking to cut their cloth a bit with match day revenues taking a massive hit during this period. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, but you’re forgetting Rangers £11m loss has mostly been nullified by pre-orders from the shirt-peelers 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
