Fojut contract got cancelled.

St Mikey

Agree0 Disagree0

Fojut deal dead due to knee injury!

Agree0 Disagree0

I don't want Cuellar and Husselkupp (sp?) has already had 2 chances to join and didn't join so no thanks.

Jungle Bhoy.

Agree0 Disagree0

The fact ur not even aware that the Fojut deal is dead pretty much says it all in terms of ur entire post.

Agree0 Disagree0

3 million for klasnic who's contract is up at the end of the season, that would be stupid even for a team in the league of money

Agree0 Disagree0

Huskelepp was rank, we got lucky break missing out on him, would take Gordon and Henrikson, tho want another top striker, have grew tired of stokes, watt will fill his place

Ska bhoy

Agree0 Disagree0

Can't see ugly betty (cuellar) signing, would take henrikson and gordon tho johnbhoy79

Agree0 Disagree0

O dea is out of contract, the fojut deal is dead in the water and the others your estimation of there value is ott thats the going outs and the coming ins who aint good enough

Agree0 Disagree0

Fojut deal has been cancelled because player has knee injury and will be out for several months

Agree0 Disagree0

Did you close your eyes and hit buttons to come up with the figures ? 1 m for mccourt , 6.3 for ki ? Come on realism please.

Agree0 Disagree0

No wonder you won the league, you have a first-team squad of 43. Rangers have 27. Next season you will require to trim this number drastically.

Agree0 Disagree0

What has Juarez done to get a quote of 1.6 milion? Ki lucky to get 2.5 milion, he's gash

Agree0 Disagree0

Ki will pull in around 3-5 million....not any more and dont think any less....regards to effrain,we will want to recoup majority of fee shelled out in transfer.Whether we can will be determined by interested parties and dilligent work by the board.I also feel if Kelvin Wilson allowed to leave we will certainly get over 1million as Championship clubs will look at him.

Agree0 Disagree0

14 May 2012 23:07:20
Apparently the players we bid £3 million for was Artjoms Rudnevs of Lech Poznan but he opted to join Hamburg instead. He is a striker who's scoring record is 74 in 161.

It shows we're after a quality striker.

Great to hear lenny on radio tonight done himself,club and fans proud proved hes a down to earth and normal human being also stated it was a cf the bid was for last week so maybe not the boy henriksen?. What about derek johnstone he does have a face for the radio but not a voice for radio he coughs constantly over people talking and i believe he might mean this he done it constantly over lennys interview he only stops to talk and contradict himself i think he
should quit smoking, his wee snidey dig about 10pt start for rangers lennys come back was great, lenny you are a star

Believable8 Unbelievable5

My hubby's a rangers fan and said his interview was good (it was have been really good for him to say that).

Think they might indeed need a 10 point start lol Mrs E

Agree0 Disagree0

Apparently the bid was for striker Artjom Rudnevs but he has just signed for Hamburg!

Agree0 Disagree0

Didnt catch the interview can anyone shed some light on Derek Johnstons dig and Lennys response cheers.MACCA

Agree0 Disagree0

Can anyone post a link ta

Agree0 Disagree0

It was along the lines of...DJ asked what about the 10 point deduction, how would you feel if rangers were given a 10 point start next season & Neil said 'well they might need it'... :-) Mrs E

Hey,

I read the celtic rumours everyday but rarely write anything. I did however see someone write a rumour about Jason Shakell being signed for 1.25 million from Derby. Well I used to work with his brother (Nathan) and am still good friends now. He has told me that celtic have apparently scouted him (along with several premiership clubs), but no offer has been made. I also know that last year, his brother had suggested he wanted one last big move (away from Derby), with the premiership his first choice. He is big (6,4) strong and quick and has been reliable at ever club he has played at. Not sure if he has the quality for champions league though (sorry Nathan if you read this!). Logan33 {Ed007's Note - Derby have received (and rejected) an offer in excess of £1 million for Shackell from Burnley.}

What Radio station was this on? trying to find a pod cast or something!

samaras commons ledley kayal ki wanyama brown mcourt forrest as well all vying for 4 (sometimes)5 midfield positions and with twardzik mgeoch ibrui in wings waiting for their chance, we are top heavy in midfield so who would you play /keep , my choice is ledley kayal wanyama brown forrest cash in on ki commons mcourt and samaras if he has a good euros , the sale of ki alone should fund the bhoy henrickson ? if indeed we are looking to buy him and any other monies would help rebuild other areas , ,,,,deep river bhoy

Believable1 Unbelievable9

Would keep Commons and Sammy. Bring something new to the team and good cover for injuries/suspensions.

Agree0 Disagree0

DRB - a great problem to have. Will be interesting to see who goes and who comes in.

K-Dot.

Agree0 Disagree0

No way would I let Sammy go. He will be vital in Europe for us.

Agree0 Disagree0

And dont forget lads, Lennon likes using wanyama in the defence, so that could free up a spot. i think if we did get mid then managment is just preparing just in case latter in the season we sell one so the new mid(whoever) would have time with the club already.

Agree0 Disagree0

I would cash in on Forrest (not a fan of out and out wingers ,nothing against the lad )and Ki (good player too but international duties are a bit of a b****cks),Sam is a must stay Mc Court will go ,(needs more football than he's getting ,will be missed thou) ... TTTS

Agree0 Disagree0

We need a 15 to 20 goalscoring midfielder.

Markus Henriksen from Rosenborg is a must signing..! What a player this young guy is and at 3million pounds what a BARGAIN..! Whould be a real coup for the club signing this guy as most of the top clubs in euope have been after him..!
Conroy_777
HH

Here is a link to watch the guy in action:

Believable22 Unbelievable4

He looks the b****cks mate. Skillful, great finisher, good with both feet, quite a big lad aswell so think he will stand up to the physical side and looks to definitely have goals in him from midfield. Hope we get him.

Agree0 Disagree0

We don't need a midfielder what we need is a target man,thanks but no thanks!

Agree0 Disagree0

He have plenty midfielders but no creative ones..! Kayal, Wanyama, Brown, Ki Etc are all defensive minded. Ledley And Commons are both attacking but this guy will end up being one of the top Attacking midfielders in Europe. 3million bid lodged by Celtic last night too snap him up. HH

Agree0 Disagree0

I think maybe Lennon may add another mid because maybe he sees wanyama as playing more in defence as part of the back because he can be used in both positions

Agree0 Disagree0

Not sure about his rapping, but what a player think if we get him then ki will be leaving.

Agree0 Disagree0

Are you jokeing we have to many midfielders as it is {Ed007's Note - But you don't know who will be leaving.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Top bundesliga clubs are after him. the bidding will go up to 6-8m and celtic dont spend more than 2.5m on players. {Ed007's Note - here is interest in Markus Henrikson is from PSV, Brugge and Schalke. Interest from Aston Villa and Bayern Munich has waned. With the two biggest 'spenders' out of the equation I doubt the price would reach that level, and there has been a bid of 3 million made for someone, that is more than 2.5m.}

Agree0 Disagree0

This guy looks quality 3 million a bargain but read bayern and Liverpool are sniffing round him too {Ed007's Note - LFC were never interested and I said that the Bayern Munoch interest had waned.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Whats all this Phone Hacking crap ive been hearing about Ed? is there any evidence in this or is it yet another made up story about the mess over at that lot? Also hearing this Documentary next week is maybe covering it? but once again just sounds like conjecture from people who dont have a scooby... like me!

Anyone else know any more? or any links to articles etc?

Evinguu

Believable3 Unbelievable4

Evini you I find that your tone or choice of vocabulaty is somewhat off putting to say the least ,
SCOOBY? indeed try not to drag the standard of the page down ther's a good chap?

heeee hawwwww

Agree0 Disagree0

Youll slap naebudy pal,.,.kbarry

Agree0 Disagree0

Evinguu this rumour appeared on RTC that Mark Daly had found evidence that SDM had hired a private detective to hack Fergus phone, if true I cannot see a businessman like Fergus not taking action get police involved and also sue SDM ....
Dear "Anon y Moose" I like
Scooby dooby do, and all I have to say is so does Fat sally like his scooby snacks extra large... Timalloy

Agree0 Disagree0

I shall try and keep the language more inkeeping with your exceptionally high standards! How very dare I use such awful language on a site that children may see! Warning heeded wee man!

Anyways cheers Timalloy, had missed out on most stuff over the weekend.

If he was being hacked, he wouldn't have known about it till someone else found out and told him, which may be happening now if its true. I do however doubt it will turn out to be true. But have been wrong many times before.

Evinguu

Agree0 Disagree0

All I can say is that if SDM hacked Wee Fergus's phone then he did not heed the lesson. (especially about fiscal prudence)
Celtic support currently discussing the players for next season while Rangers support are discussing if there is even going to be a club never mind a team!

Lennon says we have put in a bid in excess of 3million for a player, any idea who it may be ed?

Kieran67 {Ed007's Note - Everyone is saying it is Rosenborg's Markus Henriksen.}

Believable9 Unbelievable5

The guy is quality. yes only seen him on youtube clips but think on it this way even 4 mill for him and sell ki for 5.5. leaves 1.5 profit for a centre half. one outa the championship mayb? u hear any names mentioned ed? thanks mate. great site {Ed007's Note - Thanks mate. All the rumours are about Henriksen and CFs, and remember it is silly season now. With the Fojut deal collapsing it looks like it could be back to the drawing board, I expect another two defenders to be brought in now, but any names would just be a total guess from me, sorry.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Hi guys been away for a while, since it is silly season Ed007, you's are way of the mark the 3 mill bid is for big clubfoot, Mr Lennon says since you's are a charitable club he finds it only fit & proper 2 help out those in need & by signing big clubfoot this would help out in any points deductions we mite incurr for next season, SUPERALLY asked if we could throw in edu aswell,wee lenny told him 2 f*** off he didn't want us winning the league by the same amount of points as you's did this season
NTYABOW {Ed007's Note - Hi mate, long time no see. I hope you are well.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Thanks for asking Ed007 I am well thanks, but 2 tell the the truth I was getting sick of everything I was reading & had 2 switch of for a while as it was doing ma nut in,you see I understand we need 2 be punished for what has happened & I would go as far as saying if we get hammered in the big tax case then if we get stripped of titles then this would not bother me, but what does bother me is what that s**tehawk white has done, any1 with half a brain can see what he has done & how he is not in jail or a straight jacket just now is beyond me, I know alot of of people are sceptical about our new owner & quite rightly so but I watched his full interview & I thought he spoke very well & said the correct things, but what I liked about him more than anything is he didn't make stupid promises & said he will not be mr popular, but he isn't there 2 be liked he is there 2 do a job 2 get us on a level footing don't know if you seen any of his interview Ed007 but if you did any thoughts,there done it that's me back cheers Ed007
NTYABOW {Ed007's Note - One of the things which I think you can apply to most of the 'bidders' is why? Why do these people want involved in Rangers as a football team? I think TBKs were hoping fan power would see them through but I always thought it was weird about Kennedy's involvement, I would compare it to Ellis as Whyte's sidekick, it never really added up (no pun intended). Green's history is also like Whyte's, it's a bit questionable and the consortium idea and it's secrecy is never a good thing, look at how a racehorse tore Man Utd apart? Due diligence needs to be done on anyone involved IMO and there will be conflicts behind the scenes between them as well. I think it would have been better for a McCann type of person, one man to stand or fall by his own decisions. I will say that Green does seem publicly to be saying the right things, I just hope Rangers fans aren't getting ripped a new one again. Without a Sheikh Matadger or becoming some ogilarch's plaything Rangers need exactly what you say, someone to come in and steady the ship and sort the whole company from top to bottom. It will be a long road and I can't believe that some Rangers fans are already jumping on how much McCoist will get to spend etc. It will be a while yet before there is any serious spending again. I have heard (but I'm not sure about it, it was a very drunken source lol) that the top wage at Ibrox will be 4k a week for the foreseeable future.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Ed007 I agree about the secrecy but I think we have 2 respect his groups wishes & he has promised 2 tell who they are after the cva is dealt with we can only hold him 2 his word,on the TBKs & BK well see BK he we are led 2 believe has a few bob that wouldn't hurt him so it didn't add up 2 me that he never done it himself anyway,on the fans talking about SUPERALLY & how much he has 2 spend I think I will wait till wednesday before I pass my judgement on that, but what I will say is this debate started with you's guys talking about signing a player for 3 mill I think that is 2 much 2 pay 2 bring a player 2 scotland now & your manager has made some cracking signings i.e hooper, kayal,mathews & he didn't burst the bank 2 get them, I said last year when bulging eyes took over I didn't want him spending fortunes, I want the scouts 2 go out & do their jobs & get good deals as they are there, ps thank f*** bulging eyes didn't pay fortunes for players
NTYABOW {Ed007's Note - Hooper cost 2.4 million, Juarez cost 4 million, look at the difference there. CFC and Rangers need to look at young hungry players looking to make a name for themselves and move them on at a profit. It is inevitable that players like Izaguirre, Kayal and Wanyama etc will leave CFC, as long as the club make a profit and keep competing on the park. We sold McGeady for 10 million and look at the quality and quantity of player we brought in, a fantastic piece of business. People moan about the board didn't spend money, they did, where it came from was immaterial, it was still CFC money that was spent. If that is going to happen every couple of years I will be happy with that.}

Hey Ed,
Jumping in my house right now, especially as City f***ed united for the championship (I ken ur a utd fan.... I aint!)No hard feelings mate. Just a thought on the keeper situation, I personally think fraser is gone,agent will convince him he can go further in england (can't say as I blame him) I gt a feeling NL is gonna bring in someone to vie with Zaluska for no.1 possibly randolph (well) or maybe cudicini as an experienced back up to Zaluska, what you thinl m8?

HH {Ed007's Note - If Forster doesn't sign I would expect Craig Gordon to be signed.}

I heard we are releasing 6 players?
If Wilson and Juarez are included in that, then I reckon Loovens, Majstorovic, O'Dea, Thompson, McGinn, McCourt and Murphy may also be on the way out. Cha, K Wilson and Stokes also seem out of favour, so has anyone heard anything reliable about who is leaving and who we are targeting?
Cheers.

Jungle Jim

Believable2 Unbelievable1

McGinn has to report back to the club for pre season training as usual. Was talking to him at the weekend and he hasn't been told if he is one of the "movers" and expects this to be cleared up on his return.
Until NL states who are the ones going then speculation is exactly that..... Wilson and Juarez have already been mentioned as two of the 6, but I think it could be more like 8 moving on!

Agree0 Disagree0

Cheers, I would like McGinn to stay as he has loads of potential and hope he can sort out his differences.
We need back-up fo Forrest and Commons if they stay.
I am also expecting a big bid for one of our star players before they are Euro-Cup tied.
