Big Fat Transfer Window Thread 2024

I've been to Hacken...with one of the worst hangovers in my history - it had wooden stands and I had my ball bearing shoes on - felt like throwing up for the whole game - apart from that - is he any good lol

 

Jota
Ryan
Mckenna
Idah
No 6 from georgia

RIP Rangers

 

Very, very little I'd imagine.

Transfer window has been open 2 weeks and our supposed chief executive is on * holiday.

Would be slightly more acceptable if the gormless looking * had bothered his * and hired a head of recruitment or chief scout at any point over the last 3 months but he was too busy sucking lawwells fat *

 

Over a month since our last game....
Recruitment progress = zero
Protracted haggling over Idah and Bernardo = both will join own teams for pre-season and not us, which adds likely further delay
so we won't be looking elsewhere until those deals are done/not done, leaving usual panic late in window.

Same old...

 

It’s massively concerning once again it seems like we are dragging our heels.

Some of the normal excuses we get is, waiting to see about champions league football, not an issue we have it. So can’t use that.

It’s only early in the window……. Well if we had identified targets what’s wrong with getting them in early for the start of pre season or even signing them before the window is open?

The Euros……. Makes me laugh this one, making out that all of our possible targets might be away at that…..

Needing to sell before we buy….. yes we have deadwood but we need 5-6 first team
Players to walk into the side and we have a * load of cash in the bank.

Not getting value for money or we tried but X, Y and Z Happened…….


Same old pish every single season and * will give them the benefit of doubt once again.


We’ve known that Hart was going for nearly 4/5 months maybe the club knew longer and we still don’t have his replacement in the door and pre season has started.

We rod our luck massively last season with the two poor windows and we should have been light years ahead, once again we are all talking about the same thing year after year spend that money to make sure we bury them again but we don’t, we scrape the * barrel time and time again.

If we * this transfer window up would you blame Rodgers if he walked again…… I wouldn’t.

every season I say this, I hope I’m wrong, I hope we go out and get real quality in but time and time again we either leave it to last minute and hope and see.

* sick of this approach, it’s going to backfire massively like the COVID season.

 

I grew up in the 80’s, teenager, when a nuclear war was far, far more likely so when i read some * gibbering on about how there will be a nuclear war happening in the next few days I will most certainly laugh at that.
When you also read the never ending predictions of Celtic being knocked out of the Cup, going 4 games defeated and not only getting beat by the orcs but, from memory, he actually hoped that would happen you better believe I will rip the pish.
He is now gibbering on about the manager, potentially, having walked away in another thread ffs its never ending hysterical bullshit.

 

In the best financial position in our history, guaranteed our biggest ever champions league payday and we are approaching July essentially 2 first team players worse off from end of last season.

There's not another club in the world that would act the way we do. Criminal

 

My hope on the GK is that it's someone decent still at the euros and that's why there's been no movement but like i say that is all hope.

 

Mega excited for the business we're goanny get dine Iver the next few weeks. Think we'll pull out some big signings and the squad will be 10 times stronger next season compared to last. Absolutely buzzing.

 

I'm sure your optimistic outlook is just trolling at this point..

There's nothing to suggest we'll get what's required. We're a shambles at the moment.

 

It's not trolling mate, it's simply offering up an alternative to the constant, endless stream of doom and gloom by what seems like 99.9% of fans.

We've had many examples of poor transfer windows, but each one is an opportunity to put it right. Everyone at the club wants success, so I'll always be hopeful we'll get it right no matter what's happened in the past.

A lot of folk seem to take great offence to me being optimistic, * the lot of them I say. Miserable *.

 

I love ye DD, don't ever change

 

Cheers brother

 

But, your optimism isn't based on anything credible..

We sacked Lawwell Jnr and Dudgeon beginning of March and there's been no update of how we're going to operate as a club when it comes to recruitment.

No other elite minded club operates this way.

If we had made the changes necessary then I'd share your optimism but can't blame people for having a pessimistic attitude, given the lack of change required in our structure and the shambles of the last two windows.

 

It's based on having a manager that wants to win things, pure and simple.

Regardless, if I want to be optimistic with nothing to back it up, so what? I'm entitled to air that as much as the rest of you are entitled to rant and rave about us being a shambles.

I choose to believe we'll get some good business done and go on to have a brilliant season, and feel the need to post about it because it's * depressing watching every * go on and on about the same doomsday *.
