Hey guys good luck to sg blue n white army tonight.
Now to my point. I feel that we need to get our finger out with regards to our scouting systems and contacts throughout world football.

Im going to highlight one of main reasons imo that that mob are ahead of us
Van dyke, Armstrong they made a fortune on them

Dembele edw nitcham sinclair boyata between them in the current market your talking between 40 - 70 mill all of these guys apart from edw have been picked up for under 4 mill.

Over the past 5 transfer windows we have signed close to 30 players maybe more and apart from morelas and maybe tav not one of them has been valued at over 5 million.
It is simple not good enough. Mark Allan in his interview stated that he had been given a blank sheet to set up a scouting network. Well he is a year in and i don't see that much progress in this department.
We should have a army of scouts scouring the french n belguim german lower leagues and u21 set ups
Last season our young boys played some of the cream of europe surely our management team seen some players throughtout these games that have potential and that we could pursue and not just on a loan basis.
Dorran artfield mcgreg murphy all good pros but not one of these guys have a sell on value. Our business model at the mom is pants and we really need to get this sorted as a priorty. Sg is a big name in world football and we should be using this to entice some of these young boys throughout europe and beyond.

Rangers and scottish football is a potential spring board to the english prem to hungry young pros throughout the world that's the dream we should be selling these guys.

I think Mark Allen is doing a good job.

I think he's doing exactly what you say he's not doing. The signings we've paid out for since he's arrive nearly all have the potential to improve as players and value.

It doesn't happen overnight.

The youth set up also has improved in last couple of years.

One thing's for sure, this year will have a young team, which should have plenty of hunger, energy and drive.

I'm waiting patiently to see if this is coupled with the right level of ability. Tonight should give an indication.

If reports are true, man city's kean bryan is joining us today. But some news outlets have him as a midfielder and some say defender. we need another midfielder like a hole in the head, but badly need a defender and at least 1 striker (i d prefer 2). I know a few don't agree with me, but i would also like to see a couple of decent scots come in, as i feel its important for a scottish (or any other team of any country) to have a spine of decent players from that country. (i know some fans don't care about that, but i do) I'd like to see a few of our players in the scotland team again. I Am hoping once gerrard's seen a few games he might find a player or two in scotland to sign perhaps in january. Though am not sure what the scouts are doing domestically- as clearly they either arn't recommending anyone or are being ignored.
