Rangers bid for Chris Eagles from Burnley (Merged)

[hibee92]

Ssn reporting a substantial bid has been made :confused: got to be thinking between 3-4million for him, where are they getting the money??? Good player IMO :agree:

[Green Mikey]

I read today that the bid is for £1.3 million.

Eagles has only got 1 year left on his contract, £3-4 million would be a lot considering this...

never knew it was his last year, makes sense then getting a good player for quite cheap :agree:

I'm sure Baw Heid Bain secured £5 million transfer funds a couple of months back, he also committed to retain funds from player sales for Smith's budget.

Mamies Boy sale to Boro will give them some room to manouvre.

Shame Mamies Boy's away, he was syphoning off some wages. This Eagles guy looks alright and doesn't carry a history of treatment table love.

Can't remember if they said that monies from Champs League would go to the transfer fund or if that was going to be hoovered up by the bank.

cracking signings for the huns if it goes through

Oh what a shame on the Huns only £5m to spend.:boo hoo:

They can spend as much as they like their just putting themselfs into more debt.

No we got Budgie going cheap. I imagine Eagles will go something like scraaakkkk.

[M11BMO]

I'm sure I read in the Daily Ranger today that it was a 2.5M deal. :dunno:

[Wembley67]

Even if they are skint surely some rich bugger can say right Mr Directors here is £2 million buy a player etc etc so the money doesn't have to go towards any debts...

Gers were keen to add the former Manchester United winger to Walter Smith's squad following a host of departures from Ibrox this summer.

The clubs thrashed out a 'substantial' fee for the 24-year-old, but the talented playmaker was unable to agree personal terms.

He toured Ibrox and visited the Gers' Murray Park training ground on Wednesday and held discussions with Smith and chief executive Martin Bain.

"Chris Eagles has tonight (Thursday) decided that a move to Rangers is not in his best interests," read a statement on the club's official website.

Eagles will now join his Championship team-mates on their tour of Singapore next week

Unlucky, Huns :bye:

:faf: Considering you could almost fit the entire town of Burnley into Ibrox Stadium this is quality.

The days of Celtic and Rangers clicking their fingers and players signing on the dotted line are well and truly over.

The Eagle Has Not Landed. :cool2:
