Could we recall Chris Burke?

He went off the boil for us and did nothing in his last few appearances, why would we want him when we have Twisty, Petravicus etc?

If I recall he used to play on the right wing for us?

We already have one burke in that position and several others at the club! Why do we need another burke?

I guess this piece in today's Guardian explains - if we need any explanation - why we are not in the market for signings of Hooper's calibre. Fact is even clubs like Wednesday are able to pay fairly average players this sort of money! The transfer window must have been challenging for DF!

"Norwich City have denied that their striker Gary Hooper turned down the chance to join Sheffield Wednesday because the Yorkshire club refused to give him a VIP box for games.

According to the Sheffield Star, Wednesday had agreed to a £500,000 loan fee and were to pay the player's wages of £32,000 a week should he join the Championship club.

Hooper reportedly passed a medical last week but the Star said the move collapsed after a wrangle over the VIP box at Hillsborough, said to cost £30,000 a season, for Hooper's friends and family."

Where is John Pemberton these days? He did a great stand-in job previously for us and was a great loss when he was shunted out.

Been a rumour for some time now, but surely if we can fork out £2. 5 m for Wilson the offer for a highly promising young player like Hearts' Holt could be upped to £200,000 or £250,000. We couldn't go wrong with this addition to the squad, and risk losing him over a piffling amount of dosh.

1.) If we really wanted him and we could get him for £200-£250k i'm sure we would pay it.

I think there is some other issue we are unaware of as I don't think we would miss a player for £50k or £100k

Is Lacovitti out on loan? If not, why not give him a game? And what about the young Swedish centre back? I hope young players get more opportunity under M O'N than they did with Karanka.

Take the point that a huge defeat may knock the confidence of young players. Who knows though maybe young legs and youthful energy could have had a positive impact, at least for the last 20 minutes or so?
And does anyone really believe their confidence is helped when they see the door to the first team virtually closed off to them by the recruitment of a crazy number of players, many of whom are of less ability. I know it's all a matter of balance etc. .just saying I personally am not convinced the balance is right.

Agree with Arran and Nick about a missed opportunity to give the young players some game time. Very surprised they didn't even get off the bench. Against Burton Appiah came on and scored!
It's clear Karanka would rather play players out of position than field younger ones. He brought in 24 new faces in 2018! How many of those have been a successs? Surely we should only buy to actually strengthen our squad and always keep the door open to players coming through the ranks.

Mosschops, maybe Marinakis is a smart cookie but there's also a lot of concern as to his alleged highly suspect character. We need to be careful what we wish for!

Sad loss RB. Jack would be very touched by your lovely tribute to him. You and your family will have lots of great memories and that will help with your loss.

Good point kr88. Lower leagues AND bringing more young players through our own ranks.
Recruitment/transfer policy is a shambles and has been for many years. We've now got a bloated squad; many of the players are either injury prone or journeymen lacking the quality needed for a serious promotion push.

Can't agree owlbigred.

Yes, Celtic are very far ahead but Rangers support base, income generated and wages bill is massive compared to all other Scottish clubs (barring Celtic of course! ) . Their wages bill stands at £11m compared to Aberdeen's at under £2m, yet Aberdeen are ahead of them in the league! Warburton recruited very badly, was naïve tactically and a poor motivator. Very few fans in Scotland would say he's been a success at Rangers. Even Platt or Megson could have achieved what he has in Scotland!

Let's hope it's the Brentford Warburton we've recruited and not the Rangers one!
