Jason Holt - Rangers (Signed for Fleetwood)

[Jannerbear]

I would absolutely love Argyle to sign Holt, but just can’t see it happening.
He is very short, but is a real hustle and bustle player who never stops running. He can be a goal threat and is a top guy.

Unfortunately he would command a fee of between £200k-£500k and will be on hefty wages as well.

My sentiments exactly, it looks like jason holt and jason naismith were targets but other clubs with money to spend might have something to say about them joining us. Shame really because out the players either linked or signed so far these two look they could make a difference.

 

[Green as Grass]

He signed a 3 year deal at Rangers in July 2015. Unless he has signed an extension to that contract surely he will become a free agent at the end of this month and will not therefore cost a fee.

 

[Stuart House]

He signed extension in 2016.

One report suggests a modest six figure sum would be sufficient, which isn't outside the realms of possibility.

However as others have pointed out, as soon as other teams become interested, this is where we will most likely lose out.

He has a lot of experience under his belt for sure. I note that he is vertically challenged at 5ft 6in, but there again, Scotland has a knack of producing top players with short legs viz, Bobby Collins, Strachan, Jimmy Johnston, pat Nevin and many others. I would be delighted if this rumour hardened up into reality.

Vertically challenged sounds like discrimination to me. Isn't there a saying about the best things coming in little parcels?

 

[rsp4]

Hmm excited but cant see it happening

[The Night Riveria]

I remember being excited at the prospect of Ciftci and Cillian Sheridan joining us from Celtic.I will reign myself in this time

 

[IJN]

Brings me out in a sweat just thinking about those two.

Billy Bremner

Yes, I forgot him, and he was an inch shorter in his day than Jason Holt now. He made Norman Hunter look like teddy bear!

I wonder what the draw is for Scottish players to come so far south? The weather in Scotland must be nightmarish if that's what they're coming for.

a much higher standard of football in my opinion.i think motherwell signed a player from hartlepool the other day.

In a word wages maybe not so much with Holt who was/is at Rangers but wages at L1/L2 level are way above most of the SPFL topflight

Carl McHugh took a pay cut from a midtable spending League Two Plymouth Argyle to join top half SPL Motherwell.

So in a nutshell, the wages aside from Celtic and Rangers are ordinary and any Championship or high end League One club is likely to attract the best of the rest.
