Now Glasgow Rangers want Harding !!

[perseus]

I retract the comparison to Archer and Bellotti. More like Greg Stanley who sold off a lot of players off cheap and caused us to plummett.

These were good players like Danny Wilson, Steve Foster, Dean Saunders, Steve Penney etc.

I must be blind because in my opinion he is by far the worst of all the kids who have come into the first team.

And if someone is going to give us half a million for him, then hahaha.

Why were these players sold? For fun? No, they were sold because we were already suffering from a mountain of debt and we needed the money. Don't get me wrong, I am not G.Stanley's biggest fan, but had I been put in the same position at the same time I may well of made similar decisions for the long term good of the club. Does this make me dis-loyal or lack ambition?
Your don't have to agree with the opinions of others on here but your remarks are very offensive and way over the top.

When Preston sold Mark Lawrenson and Gary Williams, the sentence was mundaneness for 20 years or more, perhaps forever. These sort of players do not come up all that often!

Are you seriously comparing Harding with Lawrenson?

i really don't see the fuss made about harding


he came into the team last year(i saw him away to plymouth and he seemed to have no ability in keeping the ball on the pitch- a fundemental part of football)
he then came in at left back later in the season and looked ok, or more rather he looked better than mayo, who had had a pretty poor season. he had some good games(i thought he was good at cardiff)

this form must've been what his call-up was based on, as he has, quite frankly, been awful this season. if he was THAT good, he would've shown to be capable at this level, as, imho players such as virgo, el-abd and hinshelwood have done, why don't these players get as much hype?

i really am confused as to why he gets so much credit

Sell him if we are getting good money, simple economics in our current plight.

you have a dodgy car, everyone knows its dodgy, its been well publised, no-one who has used the car rates it at all, but all on-lookers seem to love it

there then seems to be a lot of interest in these on-lookers buying it, and this will hopefully mean you can get a good price for it as you can let them bid

WOULD YOU SELL IT?

exactly

No I'm to honest!

The object of the game is the build a football team, not sell off the best players to your rivals for petty cash.

Surely the object of the game is to RUN a football club - "building a football team" is only part of this game.

There is some doubt as to whether Harding fits the title of one of our "best players" - he is still unproven at Championship level [but probably has potential to improve on his present showing]

How can you classify Glasgow Rangers as "local rivals"?

Don't say we are selling him for "petty cash" until you know what the offer is! - then make your view.

Clear evidence that perseus is talking out of his

I am comparing Danny Harding with Gary Williams (Player of the Year for Preston before he left).

 

[CP 0 3 BHA]

Very interesting the way DH has polarised opinions - most NSC posters on one side and the minority + Taylor and McGhee on the other.

To say he is no better than Mayo is farcical. Mayo has been a fine servant to this club but like watson he has been proved as way out of his depth at this level. With the kids out wide in defence this season we'll probably survive - bring back the old guard and we'd need a miracle.

Harding did find it tough in the first half at West Ham and his distribution was shocking. I beleive a major factor in that was that he was on his own, with no left midfielder to support him or provide an obvious pass.

Against derby he looked pretty good in a team that was getting skinned. A common theme from both games was that he got forward and missed a sitter from 6 yards.

I think he'll probably go but he's been an asset to the team since mid last season and I fear for that position when he's gone.

Danny Harding will be a better player than Sansom was!

Rangers are thought to be interested in Brighton & Hove Albion defender Daniel Harding.

The Old Firm giants may look to lure the England Under-21 international to Ibrox in January's transfer window, with Gers boss Alex McLeish reportedly monitoring the progress of the promising left back.

The Seagulls are keen to extend the 20-year-old's contract with the English Championship club, but with Harding hesitating on putting pen-to-paper, the South Coast club might consider selling the defender during the transfer window.

Brighton boss Mark McGhee believes Harding has the ability to become a proven talent with a club like Rangers in the future.

"Harding is a guy who has maybe played about 35 first team games at the minute and who has broken through on the international scene with the England Under-21s," McGhee said.

"He is tall, very quick and a good solid defender. He is at his best as a left back in a four-man defence.

"We know there is interest there from a number of clubs and we are trying very hard indeed to secure him on a longer contract at Brighton.

"Unfortunately, Daniel isn't keen to do that at this stage and that might well mean we have to sell him in January.

"I don't think he is a Rangers player at this stage, but he has the potential to reach the top level.

"I'm convinced he'll make the grade and it's all about experience and learning the game at this stage of his career."
