EHL thanks once again for such a wonderful update regarding agencies.
I had been told about a possible partnership with Brentford.
Scandinavian talent see there future heading through mainland Europe, Germany in particular.
Take my clubs association with Bayer Leverkusen as an example.
Our talent seems to be always overlooked in Scotland hence Thomas Kristensen, skov Olsen, Ola Solbakken have all been missed opportunities.
Once again excellent information and i for one am glad you have returned to this site.
We are all better for it.

Who was the lad we were linked with? Haalands pal? Sure he went to italy and has had a total nightmare?

Asathor it begs belief that old fo clubs don't have a solid partnership with a club or clubs or talent agency in scandinavia, the weather sometimes gets the better of foreign imports to Scotland, this wouldn't be the case, and Celtic have had a lot of success in Scandinavian markets albeit maybe not direct for country of origin.
Defo something that's needing addressed.

So Asa, i take it brentford is the london club we're going to be working closely with that EHL aluded to ? Brentford are definitely a good model club to get involved with to the way nils koppen wants our club to run and of course brentford are a very efficient, well run football club, who we'll be working with and the same agencies they work with ??? When koppen first came to rangers we were aware that he wanted rangers to eventually be as sufficient/ well run football club all the way through like, brentford,
brighton, ajax fc porto etc.

No worries Asa.
Think it was a bit of a blow to miss out on the Scandinavian links, but I'm sure we'll keeping pushing.
Make sense though, as we're behind a lot of clubs / leagues on this one and many have already got established pathways.
Its exciting times behind the scenes - there's been a lot of talk about strategy and vision, but things are really starting to move.
On the London club, I'll be Frank and say that I can't confirm.

Posticoglu and Spurs???.
16 Jan 2025 20:24:15
I like the wee subtle hint EHL 'FRANK' ???.
16 Jan 2025 20:35:17
It certainly is exciting my friend.
As you said rangers are a bit behind on the partnerships but I feel strengthening already formed links could work better ie. Hamburg.
I like what you did there and i will accept that response.
I would also play on the Dutch links and try to pair up with Ajax, by extension joining there already formed links to fc Barcelona.

See what you did there ehl. ?? it's Brentford guys.
16 Jan 2025 22:10:26
Unless he means Frank Lampard with his links to Chelsea ?.
16 Jan 2025 22:42:34
Didn't Brentford also scrap their reserves / academy. Is that part of model.

Nice one ehl ?.
