As much as teams don't want to acknowledge or accept it, but they (everyone) needs Rangers to be a functioning, healthy club. The revenues that the Glasgow giant bring into the SPL are substantial and there is a considerable trickle-down effect to the rest of the clubs. This whole affair just strikes me as people 'baying for blood'. I don't like it.

There are a few players who have jumped ship by saying that their contracts were not transferred to the new owners, making them free agents. Norwich have "signed" Steven Whittaker from Rangers, had the press conference to introduce him, etc. but the deal is in limbo while labour lawyers and FIFA look into it. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.
