    They aren't really less than 10 years old though are they. They've kept the profile, the history, the fanbase, the infrastructure etc.

    Lifelong fan! That makes him 8 yrs old! Does Gally not have a minimum age to join this Board.
    What am I saying. I’m forgetting about the quality of some of the posts on here.

    They might well have done. Just that legal technicality of them being a different club then.

    You said it. It's a technicality. They are the same club in all the respects which make them such an attraction.

    They can’t play or trade or sign players if they “are the same club”. They aren’t the same Club.
    Other than following the ‘tradition’ of appointing crap managers and signing poor players.

    So we are a bigger draw than Rangers?

    Good grief

    Different company and registration - same
    club.

    And, er, check companies house. We file under the name ‘Barnsley FC 2002 LTD’, or did. We are just as much a different company as rangers are. You a closet Celtic fan?

    How rude. I’ve never been in the closet!!

    Are we a bigger draw for players than Rangers? Christ i’d Hope so! We’re a Championship club.

    If you’d like to run through the Rangers team and identify the ones that would replace our first eleven, i’d be interested in your summary. Two maybe?

    The way things are going in Scotland we’ve probably got a better chance of making the Champions League than Rangers!

    Youre completely missing the point.

    Oli McBurnie is a Rangers fan. Lifelong. Be it the current rangers or the previous Rangers. All anyone is saying is that Rangers would be HIS ideal. Not anyone on here, McBurnie.

    Erm... not disagreeing with that point about McBurnie. Mine was a rather broader point. Though, as you’ve brought it up. I’d be stunned if Oli put his career on hold by going to Rangers. That imo would be a very regressive step for him though an outstanding (and surprising) signing for Rangers.

    Being bored at work so i've had a glance at their squad and pull these that would have a chance of getting into our starting 11:

    Scott Arfield, Morelos, Ryan Kent.

    Anybody who thinks we have a bigger pull than Rangers is a silly sausage.

    Anybody who thinks a 23 goal Championship striker is going to go to Rangers is also a silly sausage.

    If Leeds get promoted I’d expect him to go there, or he could end up at Sheff Utd if Leeds don’t.

    Probably any of Villa, Huddersfield, Bournemouth, Brighton, Southampton, Palace, West Brom’s would pay £10m+ for him.

    Morelos fits our criteria in that he’s often suspended, but I wouldn’t have him over Moore or Woodrow.
