ST money and retail will be needed for the (entire staff) wage bill and the annual running costs of the club.6 million plus our retail and season ticket money is a good start.
ST money.....player sales.....but you knew that already.
That might, I say might, just be enough to pay off Pena, Herrera and maybe one other from the wage bill.
As usual the fans will fund the club via season tickets.
Very underwhelming Mr. King.
That's not how it's going to work, you are only preparing yourself for disappoint if you expect us to spend more than £10m.
I believe the correct figure was 8.5.There is no way we knocked back £10m for him.
Simply no way.
Dissapointing.
Can we stop the embarassing 55 patter? We’re going nowhere fast with a limited budget like that.
They spend £6m on a fee & years wages for a player.
We are PLC mate. If we want to raise a share issue we have to announce it publicly it's compliance.
To the people saying "Aye, but we've got season tickets and new strips on top of that" - we also have a club to run and wages to pay. We can't just plough everything into new players.
We need external investment if we're to do any gap closing.
Surely a statement would have sufficed though?We are PLC mate. If we want to raise a share issue we have to announce it publicly it's compliance.
Why bother with a press conference for such an underwhelming announcement?
We need to stop scoring own goals.
I still cant believe thst folk believe shit on the internetI knew there would be brain donors ranting about Gerrard only getting 6 million as soon as I read that.
I wasn't let down.
The manager obviously disagrees with you.yeah somthing big like 6 million. pathetic!
Plus any revenue from player sales...
£6m from share issue , £3m from hummel ,ST money raised & any money from shirt sales should see a decent budget for players
I still cant believe thst folk believe shit on the internet
To mess with the press before he flys home obviously haha nah you need make it public if your doing a share issue like he's just done
People need to calm down, this board have surpassed all expectations when handing out money to managers, I for one was amazed at what Pedro was allowed to spend. I believe King is managing expectation. As others have said we will have record ST sales, money coming in from the retail deal, probably some cash from player sales, and an additional 6m.
I think we may be pleasantly surprised at what we lay out in the summer.
The board have consistently stated that ST money will be reinvested in the playing squad,have they not?£6m from share issue , £3m from hummel ,ST money raised & any money from shirt sales should see a decent budget for players
And if my auntie had baws!What if there is a deal in place for 8 million for morelos which added to the other incoming funds via ST and kit/merchandise which would equate to 15-20m was what seduced SG to the job?
Surely a statement would have sufficed though?
What were you expecting ?
King giving the press %^*& all?
It was King that raised expectations in the first place, with his 'north of thirty million' comment, when he was seeking to gain control of the club.
We don't need anything near that. I'd be shocked if we don't spend similar to last Summer but crucially it will be spent a lot more wiser with a handful of top class loans.Expected that.
Rangers need minimum £20m immediately on this team
