    He does seem worth it. I'm mindful that Hartson should never have been signed but that turned out well enough so
    maybe the way to go here is agree the 7 million but make it dependant on appearances likewise bonus payments for the player, although the risk then is some other club just jumps in a offers the 7 mill as they can afford the risk.

    No one believes that we should do that. We are talking about reinvesting profits, nothing else, and as you say, it is just a question of how much, how soon: either too much or too little in the short term is wasteful.

    Had Rangers only reinvested the money it made, it would still exist.

    Id take this guy, looks very skillful from those clips. Seems injury prone but who knows, could offer them £3million up front and the rest in clauses and sell on money if it's a gamble.

    A loan with an option to buy might be a better way of going for us, if we are interested at all.

    Our players are injury prone enough. The nature of the Scottish game and * surfaces don’t help. Odds on to have a season ending injury on a plastic pitch.

    When did I say we'd go bust? I'm saying spending everything you have in the bank isn't wise

    The guy Blochairnbhoy wanted us to pish all our profits up the wall. I'm saying it won't, and shouldn't, happen.

    I said player trading should be fully reinvested not our actual profits in full

    Could've been read that way. I was actually implying that we shouldn't just pish everything up the wall. Using the Huns as an extreme example of misusing money that comes into the club. I wasn't implying we'd be liquidated though.

    His injuries are a serious worry. Over 100 games out with shoulder and knee injuries.

    Not ruling him out but I hope we have assessed plenty other options first...surely.

    I realise we do not want the club to go bust but when you look at Ajax they bought a few players in at 7 or 8 million for about three players and really they should have been in the Champions league final as they where the best team in the semi-final against Spurs they where very unlucky and they would have gave Liverpool a game of it because that was one of the poorest finals I have seen in a lot of years.
