Sned Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Just out of interest, if Hutton turns down this move, and Spurs didn't come back again in the Summer (even though they no doubt would), could you ever see Rangers being offered a better offer, or a bigger club than Spurs coming in for him?

Doesn't Sir Alex seem to favour Hutton alot? I could see him wanting him as a long term replacement for Gary Neville. We seriously need some midfield help, our midfield is paper thin right now. I'm a bit dismayed how Celtic have been proactive with Transfer this Jan (Mizuno, Hinkel, Samaras). Surely we need to react. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peacemaker7 Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Dailly is an ok short term signing, he just better not be the type of signing we can expect with near enough £11m coming in, based on Cousin leaving. Probably David Murray's asked FIFA to wait till the last minute then Walter won't have any time to spend the money. If the choice is experience over untested youth you have to go with experience for a short while, but in the long run we have to blood the youths or scrap the youth team because whats the point? Still on the bright side, it keeps the Scottish balance of the side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankie Posted January 30, 2008 Author Share Posted January 30, 2008 Dailly is basically a straight swap for Ehiogu - I doubt we'll even see him play. Like PM7, I can understand why he wants experienced cover for this season but with less pressure next term, I'd like to see youngsters blooded ahead of the likes of Dailly. Hopefully we'll sign another player or two before tomorrow night. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SI Staff Ter Posted January 30, 2008 SI Staff Share Posted January 30, 2008 Walter was always going to go with the experienced route for this season if we found ourselves short. Not going to risk younger players when we're trying to win the title. Doesn't make it seem any better though at the moment. Hopefully it will be the right decision come the end of the season.

Guest sav112 Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Rangers have completed the signing of Ipswich Town goalkeeper Neil Alexander, which should free Roy Carroll to join Derby County Thomas Buffel has told Rangers boss Walter Smith to either start playing him or let him leave the club.

Mr Nice Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 whether ferguson meant that handball or not, a player shouldn't be able to gain an advantage like that.

TM Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 never been a fan of Mitchell tbh, especially when he was coming out with stuff like "this team needs to step up a gear" when we were playing Zeta away in the CL - commentating on a Scottish team and you are saying that on a Scottish channel I think it is a handball, but it is a stunning finish and if you look at the decisions made at Falkirk on Sunday, then you probably know why I called Underhill the Celtic hero Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie Posted January 30, 2008 Author Share Posted January 30, 2008 Couldn't make the game tonight as my wee one and the wife have the cold... Thought we played pretty well actually. Whittaker did very well at right back, Hemdani and Ferguson were superb in midfield and Burke looks sharper and sharper with every game. Obviously the game had a few controversial moments which McCurry seemed to struggle with - pity as he's been the best ref this season by far. - The Nade run was a foul but outside the box. - Thought the JCD run was a penalty with both Hearts players bringing him down. - Goncalves looked a handball but he didn't mean it. - Ferguson looked a handball but he didn't mean it. There was also a handball in the first half that seemed similar. All in all, some questionable decisions and it was good to see us benefit for a change this season when it could have went against us. Second goal was well worked and that essentially killed the game. So after a disappointing day in losing Hutton, I think the team did well to keep the heads up and give the kind of performance that once again shows we won't be fair off this season in all competitions.
