We havent been anything other than *bleep*ed for years. If he didnt have two crutiate injuries there would have been interest in him,when fit he is easily a 3-4m player. However due to our position we would need a miracle to get £1m , hypothetically of course as he wont even transfer his contract.

quote dazathedrummer

We paid Killie just over £2 million, and at full fitness he's easily worth double that. Best creative player in the squad.

Djibril Cisse cost QPR £4m. Leicester paid £4m for Jermaine Beckford. West Ham paid £4m for Kevin Nolan. Stoke paid £4m for Cameron Jerome. Whereas Shaun Maloney cost Wigan £1m.

He is worth at best £1m, now he is worth nothing anyway. If he was in your posession, you'd get £300k. Whittakers worth maybe a tenner. But thats because he's a twat.

Tbf, Naismith was easily Rangers best player last season, efore he got injured. Teams would easily pay more than £1m and probably rightly so. To say he is at best a £1m player, in today's market, is quite ridiculous.
And I'm a Celtic fan, and hate that little bastard.

quote Macleod77

I don't see how you can say Naismith is only worth £1M and state that Maloney got sold for £1M. Naismith was 10 times the player Maloney was for Celtic.

Aye, maybe in Maloney's second spell, that statemenet could be true and that was mainly because he kept getting injured.

And i'd say that Naismith is better than at least three of those players. Anyway, transfer fees hardly ever reflect true value. Obvious examples being Carroll/most liverpool signings being overpriced, and Jelavic being underpriced. So it's hard to say "Club A paid £X amount for this player, therefore this other player can't be worth more".

When does the Scottish League Board or whoever it is decide whether to keep Rangers in the SPL or to put them in Scottish 3rd Division or have I completely missed it?

Precisely.

He's worth *bleep* all, he's a forward that doesnt score goals.

He isn't really a forward, though. More of an attacking midfielder / CF (in fifa terms). He got 9 goals in 15 this season as well btw, and he wasn't really a forward.
Don't ask why I'm defending him, I have no idea why I am doing so D:

he's a inside forward from the right. inspite of him not having outstanding dribbling ability , his movement is by far the best ive seen at rangers in years. diagonal runs of the right are amazing. suits jelavic to perfection , hence the everton interest. 9 in 15 is brilliant for a second striker / inside forward, not to mention his assists , work rate and such as well. well worth 4 million in terms of quality , but due to rangers circumstances he wont go for a quarter of it.

Thanks. I live quite near Ibrox so the area would be pretty pissed off if Rangers get relegated.
