[Red-Osbornello]

I think people need to calm down a bit on here. Everyone is gutted at losing the pair, and I'm no exception (well, about Crooksey anyway).

We all knew the players were on their way out, one way or another. Yes, we'd all loved to have seen the club get a 6-figure sum (I think 7 was unrealistic personally), but its not happened.

As for Rangers, they've done a cracking bit of business here by making use of a rule to their advantage. People mention that Rangers wouldn't like it if the shoe was on the other foot, but retrospectively, we would love it if it was the other way around?? If we had managed to get two highly rated Scottish gems for next to nothing, we'd be praising the club for doing an excellent job. Rangers sent an email - they didn't have to. They've shown their intentions in the media for some time too - it wasn't a surprise! No team will offload needless money if they don't have too.

My disappointment is more with the players. If what's been said is true and they didn't let the club know they were heading to Glasgow, that's a lack of respect to Coley and the club. Also showing their delight via social media with no mention of our club but saying that they can't wait to join a big & ambitious club is a kick in the teeth to our fans. I have no doubts that they meant no disrespect by their comments, but it was a naive move by the lads. I thought they'd have a bit more sense than that.

But it's on Stanley on, keep the faith boys and girls! Don't get dragged down into nasty comments and unnecessary abuse. It doesn't give our fans a good name either. Push that frustration deep down and release it on match day when spurring on the mighty boys in red!
