Spurs, Saints and Hammers alerted

Last updated : 21 December 2003 By Mark O' Haire
Tottenham Hotspur and Southampton from the Premiership and Nationwide Division 1 side West Ham United have all been on full alert after hearing news of Rangers' shocking admission into the state of their finances.
Top players such as Martin Rowlands have been watched by all three of the clubs as a possible signing after Rowlands' man of the match performances since his move across West London from Brentford.
Other notable interest from Spurs has come the way of Rangers nut Marc Bircham who is continually attracting Premiership admirers. Danny Shittu, Gino Padula, Clarke Carlisle and Chris Day have also been highly impressive this season prompting rumours about possible interest and moves for them too.
It is a sad state for QPR after a highly successfull first half of the season.
