Rangers transfer flurry is imaginative and signing persuasion can spark splendid summer - Keith Jackson

Often the trickiest part of negotiating a sane path through any transfer window is resisting the temptation to jump to conclusions.

It wasn’t much more than a week ago after all that some Rangers fans were becoming all angsty over their club’s apparent lack of activity in the early days of the market.
