Nope, can't drop McDonald.

[Jaemi]

Maybe in European games when they need a little experience...

[Westy]

Maybe but I think its just finding the right strike partner for McDonald. He's a good finisher, does a lot of running, on and off the ball. I think he'd be one of the first names on the team sheet along with Bourc, McManus and McGeady.

A lot of our fans were expecting a Chris Sutton at almost half the price. Whereas in reality we were getting a very good penalty box player with a great scoring record.

He's had to do a bit of adapting to the style of game here (becoming in effect a targetman)and is often unfairly picked out as being lazy (perhaps due to lack of pace) when he is quite the opposite.

I'm happy with what he contributes. Couldn't have done much better which for what was the top end of our budget.

True story.
Massive aerial threat in the box to boot.

I'd buy samaras and get rid of some of the dead wood (killen, riorden et all), maybe buy another decent striker to push for a first team place, and then let Sheridan, Hutchy & mcGowan fight it out for the bench place.

NI based news is reporting that Kyle Lafferty's signed for Wolves.

Heard that it Miller's pay demands that are the stumbling block. Miller is after 25k per week.

[Rosco]

Does anyone at Rangers get £25k a week, even Ferguson? No way Miller will get anything like that.

[wingwalker]

My source is most likely not 100% (mate on the train) but I heard Miller was on £65K a week at Derby, which seems ridiculous as no one in their right mind would pay that for him.

[Westy]

Nae chance Miller was near £65k a week. I'd say about £30-35k if he was lucky.

If he wants to come to Rangers and the management want him there he can get £12k a week a most. Fuck he's not even worth that.
