euan2020 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 I thought when Rangers were looking at Joe Garner this was a free xfer - 1.5M GBP for guy who spent most of his time in League One - 49 goals from 57 goals from 157 for PNE - but 51 of these were League 1 goals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not bad but not fantastic either. Admittedly we probably couldn't afford a striker with better stats. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

euan2020 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 I guess comparator is Gary Hooper - he was League 1/League 2 at the time mainly - although i remember at the time a lot of clubs were chasing him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time will tell if he's got what it takes for Rangers. Pretty sure Warburton researches his players via their stats so he must have something in mind for the guy.

As you say, time will tell if it's worth it or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He obviously has plenty of contacts for the lower leagues down south. He also likes to look at player stats, so there must have been something there that helped point to the lad. Hopefully he'll get a pile of goals this season so we can afford the 2nd half of the fee. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hertsscot Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 I remember watching Garner a few times the season before last season. I think Preston had a bit of a cup run and he was certainly a player who caught the eye. Kenny Miller's can't keep going on forever so I think it should be a decent signing. Comparisons with Hooper are pretty valid though Hooper was a fair bit younger when he joined Celtic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
