Excellent post.

 

I should have given mention to Ann Budge in that. If I'm reading this correctly she has developed a situation where the club can at a bare minimum maintain the current level without relying on windfalls, like euro groups or player sales.

 

I'm further speculating the typical opposition for 3rd, sheep hubz axis will be nothing like as stable as Hearts at the financial level. More yoyo like. 

 

And that's an incredible achievement alone considering what she inherited, she has to be up there with most influential and innovative characters in the history of the club or modern Scottish football overall even. An equivalent might be Fergus McCann at Celtic. In My view.

He lives near where I live, so know a few people who know him and he is a Rangers fan. But he does seem level headed. My post before is that you never know what may turn his head so you can never say never that he doesn't try and force through a move. I dont think he wanted to move in January as everything was working well for him (his form, getting chances for Scotland etc.)

 

I also dont believe Rangers are interested in him. As others say I dont believe Clements sees him as a player that fits how he plays. I think many Rangers fans want him, pundits want him but Rangers will be looking elsewhere.

You could be right about Clement being lukewarm to the idea of paying 2-3m for Shanks, simply because he knows more about strikers playing in Europe.    Also, even if Shanks does go to Rangers he probably won't be an automatic first pick unless he consistently bangs in the goals against Celtic and Euro teams.

Totally agree.         Celtic would have been goosed if Fergus McCann hadn't shaken things up - yet he is still despised by some Celtic fans who can't get past the fact that he made a lot of money from his tenure.

Our £15.5M figure is including all staff, too, isn't it?

 

Reckon about £9M or £10M for 1st Team


 you think we are spending between £5.4m and  £6m on shop, hospitality and hotel staff. 
 

That would be the equivalent of 54 to 64 people getting £100k pa. Do we even have 54 no playing staff.  


not a  chance mate come on.  
 

Probably closer to £12.5m on first team players and coaching. £1m on women’s team and £2m on staff

He would know plenty about Shanks when they were both in Belgian football.

There's an article somewhere on staff numbers; what about the contractors that fitted the Hotel? Do they count? It's all staff too; everyone

 

Does it really matter if we don't know exactly?
