Watt-Zeefuik Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 The Simms image is sweet mostly because of the Lakers jersey. I'm no Lakers fan by any means but the man undoubtedly has an 1970s NBA name and 1970s NBA hair, so I love that he's a nominal NBA fan at least. As to the road image, it looks for all the world like the man went out to the borders for a holiday, got himself a hotel room to take a break from training camp, and went for a drive.

tiger Rudi Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 8 hours ago, suds66 said: Hopefully we are in a strong position to persuade Everton/Simms to return to HMFC. Rangers could afford to buy Simms which could be a game changer. I seriously doubt Simms himself wants to be sold by Everton. His aim is to make it in England and a loan deal is what he would prefer. A year at Hearts hopefully, gaining experience including playing in Europe will surely be his main aim at this stage of his career. We just need to hope he enjoyed his first stint here and would choose us over Rangers. Regular game time should be his priority over a few extra quid they might offer.

It's positive that he was here for a visit (the squad was back from Spain etc.) or if he was clearing out his apartment, its positive that he did not do this the day after the cup final. The negative thing is it looks like he drove south. Edited July 4, 2022 by I.T.K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PapaShango Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 No doubt Rangers could afford Simms especially with Aribo likely going to be sold at some point over the summer. I'm pretty sure they will be looking at someone of higher pedigree though, certainly in the first instance and Simms will be wanting to go somewhere where he will be playing every week.

They’ll be sailing close to the wind if they continue to loan out everyone rather than sell a couple, no? Are there not new loan rules as well as the FFP?

Broadhead yeah, he did well, think he’s a bit older. Maybe 23/24. I think there’s a cap on the number of loan players (the number isn’t coming to mind).
