Cheers for the very good info. Although think loan fees are a good bit out. ?

I think Butland and Tav were on higher wages, but most of it seems pretty spot on.
13 Jul 2026 17:44:14
No way Shanklin is on 25k a week. Plus, Devlin is on 7 5 k allegedly.
13 Jul 2026 17:53:33
Jasp, I understand Shankland's salary and signing on fee equate to 25k a week.
13 Jul 2026 19:01:56
Shankland on 25k per week. Wow, fair play to Shanks, at least the money is going to someone who bleeds blue. That's not always been the case in very recent seasons.
13 Jul 2026 19:24:05
Shankland's salary probably has his signing on fee factored in (nobody is Free nowadays).

I believe there is someone peiple are missing.
Could Alan McGregor be registered as a player to fill a domestic trained spot in European squad for third choice keeper?
That would give us Kelly and McGregor, McCrorie and one other to fill club trained quota.

That's not a bad shout, ForeverRangers. I've had the same thought. He still looks in great shape, although he hasn't played in three years.
13 Jul 2026 21:22:46
Won't need to play, highly unlikely to play as third choice, but gives us more woggle room with rest of squad.
14 Jul 2026 00:16:48
Signing on fees as much as some transfers, usually spread out over contract. Butland one was high from what I heard.
14 Jul 2026 17:10:52
Apparently our loan fees last year were £10M+, absolutely criminal!
