Jason Holt - Rangers (Signed for Fleetwood)

[Green Giant]

If he has been released then coming to us makes it a bit realistic but we will see

If he has been released from a lucrative contract he must be anticipating a decent signing on fee.

 

[Jannerbear]

I don’t think he’s been released, both him and Andy Halliday have been told that there are clubs interested in signing them and they are free to leave.
I think Rangers will look for a small fee for them which unfortunately will probably rule Argyle out.

Or pasties for life even! Seriously though, the cancellation of a contract by Rangers does open up possibilities. We can only cling on to that hope.

DA also paid a fee for Edwards rumoured to be c £25k

 

[Knibbsworth]

Rangers have just allowed striker Joe Dodoo to join Blackpool on a season long loan so if Holt is still under contract and does not figure in the first plans at Rangers then a loan deal might suit everyone.

Reports tonight that Rangers have terminated Holt's contract

Seems like this one has momentum, but I've never seen him play. Is he the Scottish Oztumer? (Who is in turn the Turkish Messi?)

Some views from Ibrox fans.

Holt was captain for few Rangers game earlier this year.

 

[Monster Green]

I can't see us getting him. Without being negative, there are clubs above us in the pecking order. Massive coup if we do tho. My 'mate' says we are getting him for 300k, and he knows stuff. But I can't see it happening myself

 

[nick_PASTIE]

Sounds a wee nugget. Gives us an option other than Rhinos power and strength.

GET EM IN.

 

[Richard Allan]

A rangers supporting, and regular messaged earlier pleading we take him. Good speed, no end product. Reminds me of someone ?

Hopefully a ‘wee nugget’ from DA

 

[Jannerbear]

That doesn’t sound like Holt at all! I’ve watched him many many times. His game is covering every blade of grasss and giving everything for the team. He’s a proper old fashioned central midfielder. He’s a popular player at Ibrox, but it’s widely acknowledged that he’s not quite good enough for a team that will be competing with Celtic next season.

I just don’t believe Argyle will get him. But if we do he’d be a fantastic signing - I’d be absolutely over the moon.

The impression I get from all the Rangers forums is fairly consistent... that they really like him, he gives 100%, but that he isn’t up to the standard required to topple Celtic.

Edit... snap with Jannerbear :lol:

“The Home Park team would not have to shell too much out to secure Holt, with a modest six-figure sum likely to be enough to release him to England”

I love this bit of reporting.
A modest six-figure sum! That’s life changing for some, people could even have sleepless nights at the thought. Money doesn’t guarantee success though and it would be strange to be paying fees when we’ve been relying on released/out of contract players, if he does sign I’m sure DA feels he will improve the starting 11 and not just the squad.

 

[djg145]

Yes a 6 figure sum isnt alot in the football world, but to Argyle it is.

If Argyle go for him and pay a 6 figure sum, I would be worried it might be a sore point for some of the present squad, especially IF he was given a very good wage as well.

Considering both the money that flows in football even in League One/Two, and also the money Adams has earned PAFC, a transfer fee of £100,000 is fairly modest.

Luton paid that for half a season of Jake Jervis, a bench warmer for us and subsequently them.
