Does anyone think we've acted a bit shabbily re approaching the 2 AC boys without informing their club? I know we've acted within FIFA guidelines and are entitled to approach them, but its regarded as common courtesy to inform the club I understand. I personally think business is business but don't want this Holt bad mouthing us and painting us in a bad light to other teams. I don't think it would be Warbs way of conducting business but wouldn't be down to him anyway.

{Ed039's Note - It is a courtesy but I don't know about common, sour grapes from the Stanley chairman, had plenty of opportunites to tie the boys down to new deals and didn't do it)

When a player is within 6 months of his contract expiring then he/his agent is free to contact clubs to negotiate a bosman move. His current club has no involvement in this so why do they need to informed at all? Had we been looking to buy the players because they had more than 6 months left then I would expect Rangers to contact their club before speaking to them or their agents as that would be classed as tapping up.

How many times have english clubs done this to scottish teams for their best talent and nothing is mentioned about it so i think its a bit out of order of the A C chairman to be slating rangers for their conduct if he is so desperate to keep them offer them better deals its clear these lads want to leave so let them go at a price that suits both parties and move on its just sour grapes imo.

Sour grapes from the guy holt at stanley. I understand that he might be frustrated but to question the way we do our buisness when we have acted in accordance with fifa regs is really nothing more than toys being chucked out the pram and says more about the guys character than it does us.
