Also showed far more fight than most of the others put together IMO After he signed, every game in the league in which we scored, (bar Dundee United) he scored in it. So it was a case of, Thistle scores, Graham Scores. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Storer has been playing in the National League North for Mickleover, and now Leamington, over the last year. That's probably Mansell's level too. Like Storer, he'd need a pay-off to terminate his contract. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ad Lib Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 Graham strikes me as being the sort who could be a bit of a Mark Roberts for us given where we are and the state we're in. Knows goal, plenty experience, bit of fight and playing at a level below his ability still. Not fussed about Rudden. Thought that whole arrangement was very peculiar. Mansell will, I predict, not be playing Scottish football next season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s absolutely standard practice in lots of transfers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colliedug Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 I think Rudden will absolutely blow away the First division next season (20+ goals), if I'm wrong I won't renew my season ticket for the following season that's how confident I am, if he stays injury free that is. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very odd. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of clubs do the same just in case they turn out to be decent. Barcelona had one with Celtic for Marc Crosas when their midfield was Xavi and Iniesta so I don't think it's too odd for Rangers to do the same. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudden was fairly highly rated at their youth level, understandably so. That’s why they have a buy back clause. Doesn’t mean they’ll use it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob1885 Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 It's a bit odd but it.makes sense from their point when you think about it. Rudden has a Shakland/Nisbet-esque season in the championship, attracts interest from down south, Rangers buy the player back for an already set fee then sell him immediately for profit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It must just be how they work things. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nephew's birthday next week but he could wait a couple of weeks to get the strip. We are always one of the last to release kits. Hopefully within the next few weeks we’ll have it though. I’ve got high hopes for O’Neills. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if we have to sell rudden again in a year or two back to them a) he'll obviously have done us a massive turn, b) we'll make some money and c) we'll be seen as a good club for youth prospects to develop. If not, we took an educated gamble and lost. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
