It's a further recipe for disaster and FWIW I'd much rather have Fontaine and Hanlon than what they are signing.Quote:

Goalkeepers
Cammy Bell
Defenders
Marius Zaliukas
Darren McGregor
Lee Wallace
Danny Wilson
Rob Kiernan
Midfielders
Nicky Law
Robbie Crawford
Andy Murdoch
David Templeton
Fraser Aird
Dean Shiels
Forwards
Tom Walsh
Calum Gallagher
Kenny Miller
Nicky Clark
They´ll have to sign a lot more players, and of a better quality than Danny Wilson or Rob Kiernan, before we´ll have anything to fear.

I'm not saying that guarantees them promotion, but a relegated club like Motherwell would most likely have been forced to have a clear out and now be recruiting from the bargain basement.

I'm not ready to knock the effect that Warburton might have on the future of Sevco and I'm not daft enough to think that all his recruits will be mediocre forever.Quote:

Lets be honest, the Hun will spend any amount of money it wants to as, has been proved, no-one will stand in their way. Neither the GFA or law-enforement will even look their way at any questionable moves they make. King not having any scrutiny fromj the markets only makes it easier for him to do what the Hun are famous for - all-things illegal and immoral !!. That club is FOR crooks and it's RUN by crooks - hopefully we and the other clubs use that fact as incentive to ram the s*um in every single game !!
In my opinion you can spend as much dosh as you want on players... The obvious secret is it's got to be the right players. Danny Wilson- average. Eustace - nearly 36 and not kicked a ball for months due to serious knee damage. The lad Kiernan I have no idea. The first two don't exactly have me worried. So crack on The Rangers... Keep spending vast sums on bang average players!! :greengrin
Persistent rumours that Wallace and Law will be away as well.Quote:

Oh aye, agreed - so far ......................... but I wouldn't hold my breath. They can't help themselves, they NEED to flaunt their 'We can do anything we like - we're Rangers' stuff so their fans don't think they've went all soft and legit !!Quote:

On this occasion I didn't really doubt that Phil was wrong. Like any journalist you cannot believe everything he says, but I find him a refreshing change from the sycophantic morons who feast from the succulent lamb provided by Sevco....Quote:

The tabloid MSM have their audience (newspaper buying weegies generally over 40) and Phil has his (conspiracy theorist Sellik minded fruitcakes).
Believe neither.
