Why the fascination with Goodwillie?

I don't get it. Personally I think we should be keeping well away from him. It's too much of a gamble what with the rape & assualt charges hanging over his head. (I understand that the rape charge may be or already is dropped). Utd are after £2 million and knowing their chairman, he won't budge too far from this. Therefore i really don't think we should be blowing this kind of money on someone who may never play for us.

I know we've not had much money to play with for quite awhile but just because we do now, i don't think we should be careless and free spending as we once were before. Goodwillie is way too much of a risk. There must be better options out there.

"Goodwillie is like a percentage of all our youth, cabbageheaded.

He's a young, relatively wealthy, talented footballer but immature and unable to handle his emotions/temper and because he's a footballer his failings are highlighted and he's judged before any trial.

Give the boy a break, if he's guilty he'll be dealt with, until then i'd easily rate him as a £2m striker."

FFS what happened there? Was that a SENSIBLE comment from Hectoringo?

goodwillie is a good player and would do a decent job up front with jelly. he's a poacher and that is something the club doesn't have at the mo. 1.5m - 2m is not too much for a player who. if he developes, will more than pay for himself when sold. Rangers just dont seem to have the cash for transfers and that will probably crash the deal.

I've never said he's not a good player. What im worried about is us spending £1.5 - 2million on him, then he goes and spends some considerable time in one of her majesty's finest hotels.

If he didn't have these charges hanging over his head, i'd be all for forking out the cash.
