And right on cue as Ibrox Noise babbles about Rangers taking no interest in what the fans want and ignoring Lawrence Shankland instead going for ‘Zito Caro’ of Italian Serie C, indeed today the club is said to be interested in some Kosovan nobody plying his trade in Romania.
We’ll offer the basics – 23, striker, 24 in 29 but it’s in Romania, which has about as much credibility as Finland. How’s Alfie doing these days?
He goes by Albion Rrahmani and he is said to be some record breaker or whatever, with a market value of £2M – 4 caps for Kosovo, no goals. 4 UCL qualifier appearances, no goals. No Europa League appearances. 10 goals and assists in 8 Conference League qualifiers – which is about as underwhelming a level as there is to excel at.
Indeed, it’s literally the lowest level of European football – the Conference League qualifiers. He faced Fiorita, Shkupi, Klaksvik and the mighty Larne. Most of them are worse than Ross County…
Can you tell Ibrox Noise is not in a good mood today.
All we want is our club to have a good manager and a good squad, but it seems the board refuse to go anywhere near players who can actually help.
No Lawrence Shankland, let’s go for some yet other unknown entity from the Afghani 4th division.
Look, we’re not saying Rrahmani is a bad player, we just see the same silly patterns coming through each summer – to avoid the known good players and scout in mince from Euro continental sub-division F as the next big thing.
Aside Jack Butland, not a single Rangers fan had heard of about 98% of all the players we’ve signed the past few years – it’s always obscure guys who’ve barely heard of Scotland themselves never mind understand Rangers or the SPL.
But hey, the definition of insanity…
