I’ve seen them say that but haven’t seen them say anything about the “semi” in 93. I won’t get in to the semantics on whether Forest are a major European team given they’ve not played in European competition for about 30 years.

Ahhh right, it's 'recent European involvement' that turns a fitba club, into a major European club? There are a few Scottish clubs older than Sevco that can stake that claim then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t they constantly get papped out pre 2012, minus a run to a final and then miss out for 4-5 years whilst in the lower tiers of professional football? 🤪 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj mick Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Is a club who has won one trophy, (Not counting the minnow cup) since 2012 considered a major club? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Ramy 1314 Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 Just reading Kamara and Paterson will be gone in the next few days. Are they really that skint?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairbairn Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 (edited) Yes, Rangers are skint, that’s not news. However where you’re reading that is from the same guy who stated that McInnes would 100% be appointed as interim manager when Gerrard left. It’s click bait pish.

Kamara is linked with Villa and Patterson with Everton but both of them to Everton isn’t being mentioned anywhere credible over here. It’s natural though that when teams/players are doing well they’ll be linked with moves away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debian Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 Hear Kamara is £2m to Norwich and Patterson £400k Everton. Aribo to Villa for £3.5m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ger intae them Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 that’s got to be click bait pish too. these values show big profit to rangers but don’t really sound like the sums epl teams spend……. and wouldn’t service the interest on the interest on rangers debt.

Scotty CTA Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 I'm hearing that Patterson (400K) is being lined up as Ramsay's replacement once the Dons sell him for 4M plus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamond Scot Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Sky sports reporting Patterson at 12 million plus a possible 4 million in add ons. Im amazed of Rangers get that price given he hasnt established himself as 1st choice. Just goes to further show the madness of the EPL.

Fairbairn Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 He’ll be worth 2-3 times that in 12 months or so and goes down there and gets a run in the team. That being said, £10M+ for a player who can’t currently get in our starting XI would be a fantastic piece of business and quite uncharacteristic for our board!

He may be worth 2-3 times that but theres just as much chance that he wont be worth half that. He is very much just potential atm and the EPL is a very difficult and unforgiving league to learn in.

mr mojo risin Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Having seen Ramsay and Paterson (very briefly) and given their similar age; contract status etc. I find it amazing that 1 is valued 3 times higher than the other. I know most of a player's value is down to who they play for but Rangers are hardly flush with cash, not sure why English teams feel the need to bid so high for someone who hardly plays!? Would also have thought there was interest in Tavernier, wouldn't Rangers be better selling him if Paterson is as good as it seems, or has nobody else been practising penalties. 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As good as he is and has been for us, we’re not getting big money for him. Patterson’s international performances will also have been a factor.

He has already shown himself to be able to perform under pressure at a high level. Id imagine that goes some way to explaining the difference. Add in what you correctly say about the selling clubs. Rightly or wrongly Rangers appear to be able to turn down higher bids than Aberdeen would do.

Scottish sides should be and have recently started to hold out for more money. I hope Aberdeen get as much as they can for Ramsay. I was just answering the post that asked why Patterson would go for much more given abilities are largely similar. Personally i hope Ramsay goes to Germany but normally players opt for England.
