Just think, if Phil Brown hadn't turned us down we could have had Ranger here now...

He is trouble,

It will take him months to get match fit,

With no guarantee that  ( 1,  )he will score goals and ( 2)  he wont get himself in trouble again.

I wonder if he knows JJ Hooper?

Both grew up in London and both were at Newcastle at the same time although Ranger is 2 years older.

The words “leopard” and “spots” spring to mind.

He would for sure at this level if he kept his head down and arrived to training on time.

I watched the video last night and whilst he does come across decent enough, seems remorseful etc. It was only last year he was done for fraud, he plays down his involvement in that video but you can tell there was much more to it.

Towards the end when he's talking about clubs 'sniffing' around, he still doesnt' sound serious about getting out of bed in time for training. He admits it riles the rest of the team and causes a rift but he still didn't sound like he'd actually string a few months together of arriving on time! Frustrating wouldn't be the word.

I hadn't until this thread.

Thought Nile Rangers were the Egyptian river police.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Some people are easily duped.
Stay well clear.
