desperate move has Birmingham City claiming Kris Boyd

With the Rangers desperate to shore up weak finances, Birmingham City representative have noted to the BBC that their offer to bring Kris Boyd to the Championship club has been accepted.

I will save my extensive comments on the matter when it is confirmed however make no mistake, this represents a very desperate move by the club to shore up some very difficult financial events. Only five points from first place, the ‘Gers would only sell the SPL’s top scorer if it was an absolute must to save their cash flow. Assuming the striker is moving and in lieu of Walter Smith’s stated goal of cutting ten names from the roster, there is no telling how deep the club will chip away at its starting lineup.

Pushing allegiances aside, this represents a very troubling situation within Scottish Football’s future when the leagues top scorer can be had for £3m while the club is in a championship run.
