John27, are there any teams actually looking at taking some of our "players" of our hands, first team players?

Thought I'd post this wee rumour here and I stress it is a rumour, the father son duo who were let go as groundsman at Dundee were to sign an agreement with Dundee for a payout so as not to speak to press etc, the father did however I'm hearing the son didn't and has proof on his phone etc by way of messages from Dundee manager to "flood the pitch" for their Aberdeen game which was called off due to a waterlogged pitch, the reason being injuries and suspensions had Dundee down to the bare bones, now as I said this is a rumour from a workmate who is a Dundee fan who also said the son is in talks with newspapers about breaking the story, time will tell if there is anything in this or if it is just my work mate at the wind up.

a very interesting tale, and one i will await the outcome of with relish, probably not true, but then again, football is a murky business sometimes, this sort of thing has occurred many times, and other dodgy practices, yes, very interesting indeed, not unheard of.

17 Apr 2024 08:58:34
Sounds like a wind up but if true I reckon it would've been the club hierarchy handing out the instruction not the manager. Would love it to be true and they get banged down the leagues for cheating!
2
17 Apr 2024 09:13:55
Well if true and either signed an nda and are leaking info to press Dundee can sue them for everything they've got.
1
17 apr 2024 10:18:24
no they cant.

17 Apr 2024 11:05:58
I’ll go for incompetence over conspiracy pretty much every time.

17 Apr 2024 12:03:15
Tom if an NDA is broken there are financial legal implications, yes they can mate.
1
17 apr 2024 12:10:02
not for everything you got they cant.
0
17 apr 2024 12:13:23
most nda are broken legally, and some will cost you financially, they won't sue you for everything is what i said, not they won't sue you, , nda is a minefield, many have been challenged and torn up before, not as simple as just " sue you for everything you have "
1
17 Apr 2024 13:45:23
Just to clarify lads, the story I was told was the father had signed the nda but the son hadn’t, hence if all of this is true there wouldn’t be anything Dundee could do if it came from the son, as I say it could be workmate at the wind up but stranger things have happened.
1
17 apr 2024 14:32:41
if so the massive skoolboy error 56
getting the father to sign any nda and not the son would be almost criminal . hope so.
1
17 Apr 2024 17:22:18
I'm with you now tom, aye there's huge financial risk at stake for breaking one though, you're right, of course the keyword here being IF anything was signed.

I was chatting to a Dundee fan on Facebook this week who showed me proof that the flooding is due to new build houses and insufficient drainage. He showed photos from the week the games were called off and the road was under a foot of water, all running towards Dundee's stadium. Apparently the SNP led Council need to stump up £3.5mill to fix this issue, so have been putting it off.
0
17 Apr 2024 19:55:28
Dont think there's any new builds where water would run towards dens.
0
17 Apr 2024 23:02:11
Surely if Dundee's ground was affected then United's would be as well. Whatever the situation is it's a shambles and needs sorting. If it isn't sorted then Dundee shouldn't be allowed to play in the SPL.

Was talking to a guy at work who has connections at Aberdeen and he is under the impression that we have an interest in the lad Duk that plays up front for them. Not a rumour I've heard from anywhere else and none of my regular contacts have this info but the lad did tell me about wtight a few weeks before it went public. Duk for me is OK but would be a back up at best. Anyone heard anything about this.
2
17 Apr 2024 07:26:02
Could do a lot worse Bellshill decent player knows our league.
1
17 Apr 2024 08:40:21
He isn’t even a guaranteed starter for Aberdeen that would 100% be a step down and our options just now aren’t good enough. Let’s hope this rumour isn’t true.
1
17 Apr 2024 09:03:08
Agree. I like the lad.

17 Apr 2024 09:13:00
not sure he's an improvement but seems to have a bit of fight about him which would be nice to see in the side again.
1
17 Apr 2024 09:14:55
Remember reading a few folks on here talking about him last season, seems to have regressed this term, unsure as don't see much of him.

Would be ideal, can’t get a game with Aberdeen, let’s move backwards.

17 Apr 2024 12:43:21
Well we signed wright.
2
17 Apr 2024 13:14:29
Big NO for me on Duk, no doubt we will spend money on some donkey tho, far too many mistakes in transfers which has cost us big time on and off the pitch on top of that our injury record have had us p*****g against the wind for years.
1
17 apr 2024 14:36:26
not even close to good enough imo.

Correct tt and allegedly Aberdeen want in excess off 3.5 million.
0
17 Apr 2024 18:20:27
Far too much John was going to say would be an upgrade on wright but would only pay 1 to 1.5million tops think at 3plus million we can do better.
0
17 Apr 2024 23:05:35
Would be par for the course for this Board, sign a player that doesn't get a game for Aberdeen. You don't need to be that good to be an upgrade on Wright! No way should we be signing players of this quality.
While we need to be bringing in players that are home bred they need to be significantly better than what we have. We have been spending money on 3rd rate players since we won 55 and as a result we are going backwards.

Posted a while back asking if anyone had heard the bosmans we approached were represented by wasserman football agents. (Who we have a strong relationship with) .
Heard last night Callum O hare is one gathering pace. Rejected new deal at Coventry, represented by wasserman and in our wage bracket.
0
16 Apr 2024 09:43:08
Good player and definitely 1 who could improve us.
3
16 Apr 2024 10:38:05
Mentioned o'hare weeks ago in what I thought was gd info from a friend, it wasn't, but in saying that, there might be something in it, also seen the mob were mentioning him too few days back.
1
16 Apr 2024 11:17:26
Given the number of players we NEED to lose and replace, I imagine at least 5 Bosmans and 2 or 3 loans.
Hope PC and co have already got a list?
3
16 Apr 2024 11:45:09
I suppose in regard to O'Hare only issue we have is Celtic want him as well, and if we're not in CL it might be the determining factor. Could be wrong.

John is cortez resigning on loan a possibility.
0
16 Apr 2024 15:03:39
One Walter I’d like to think we sign him, however it maybe prudent ro tie up a loan with obligation to buy.
0
16 Apr 2024 18:58:57
Looking at EPL players that are available on Bosmans and given our need for an upgrade in a number of positions I wonder whether any of the following are worth a punt.
Could be wrong but is Nathan Ferguson and Will Hughes available from Crystal Palace. I watched Hughes against Liverpool and he doesn't take prisoners. He is also a better player than Lundstrum.
Ferguson is still young and a Centre Back, not sure if he has had injury problems.
Another option at centre back would be Fabian Schar, he is getting on a bit but he is a solid centre back.
Tomas Soucek at West Ham is another option for midfield, solid defensively and still only 29.
Last but not least, is Ali McBurnie an option up front. He is 27 and has to be an upgrade on anything we currently have upfront. He is also a massive Rangers Supporter which has to be a plus.
1
16 Apr 2024 19:20:02
Cortes is exactly the kind of winger we have been looking for. i'd be disappointed if we don't tie him down.
3
16 Apr 2024 21:53:07
The Southampton player rumour recently, thought to be Armstrong, could it be Che Adams who will be out of contract?
1
16 Apr 2024 22:31:38
Biggar I think adams could be a great replacement for Roofe. Similar type player with decent eye for goal.
0
16 Apr 2024 22:34:10
Was thinking that the other day Biggar, seen something about Adams, Fletcher and McBurnie, heid like a sieve, can't mind where though. Quite like Adams too.
0
16 Apr 2024 22:35:30
Bigger, it was Armstrong.
0
17 Apr 2024 08:37:37
John27 do you or anyone else know if the injury to Cortes has put doubt into the club singing him since they didn't get to see him as much as they would have liked to?
0
17 Apr 2024 11:22:34
Burt, given serious of injury I suspect there will be doubt, hence reason I say loan to buy obligation if he proves fitness.
0
17 Apr 2024 13:26:44
Cortez looks the part hopefully a loan can be sorted to free up cash elsewhere, another big rebuild does not help us but with so many out the door and others needing replaced right through the team we could be double figures in numbers going out and in.
0
17 Apr 2024 16:46:23
Is Nils Koppen not trying to reduce the average age of the squad? plus Schar and Soucek are probably on big wages.
0
17 Apr 2024 23:10:40
Copland, my understanding is that we are looking for a mixture of youth and experience. Soucek in particular would be a massive upgrade in what we currently have and he might happy to move for a lower wage if he was given a 3 year contract. Definitely a better option than Lundstrum.
We have to start signing better quality players with fight and the right mentality. Otherwise next season will just be another like this season and Celtic will move even further ahead.

15 Apr 2024 11:03:34
Is he not at Swansea on loan?
0
15 Apr 2024 11:10:00
Had a nosey there John, not seen anything bud, he's contracted with Brighton to 2025, unless big Davie Weir has input in this.
2
15 Apr 2024 11:42:24
Fork my understanding he has just extended till 2028. Yes he is at present on loan at Swansea
App it’s between him Trafford for third goalie in England euro squad.
Tom I’m not sure if Butland will leave, we would be very negligent not to be prepared, also if a bid of around15 million were made imo we would be fools to say no
That’s a yes Azul. We r definitely scouting goalkeepers, we could see three away in summer.
1
15 apr 2024 11:53:22
anything close to 10 and jacks away if you ask me john, be very very difficult to keep him if no cl, let's hope for a final push.
1
15 Apr 2024 12:12:05
John, I'm just curious mate, if we sold Butland do you think we would try and buy this Rushworth, from what I've seen it would be a good bit business as he suits our trading model. Just the idea of loaning a young lad like that to be second choice if Butland stays seems a strange one in my eyes for Brighton and him.
0
15 Apr 2024 12:29:21
Cheers John didn't know he had extended to 2028 bud, could be a gd shout, see as you say Southgate looking at him for Euro's👍.

Young blue rangers won’t be able to afford rushworth, Brighton allegedly value him higher than we value butland
The bar for young English goalies is around 15-20 million.

Okay cheers John. Also, have you heard anything regards Callum O'Hare and Eduard Spertsyan?
0
15 Apr 2024 16:14:50
Striker required as the one currently in use couldn't hit a bison on the arse with a banjo . oh and set Lundstram free to pass to linesmen elsewhere and blame someone else for not marking players he should have, Keeper is far from the future problem V Dingwall he should have only needed a deck chair and cigar rather than at full pelt and having to go up for corners.

15 Apr 2024 17:03:50
Good goalie John, having a great season.
Definitely scouting goalies. I feel he may have a chance at Brighton next year over Steele.

Been told that Wolves are interested in Butland as Sa is expected to leave in the summer for the Saudi league. Possible that any deal for Silva could be offset/ reduced by the sale of Butland to Wolves. Clement likes him, I don't think he's worth the 15-20 million Wolves are asking.
5
14 Apr 2024 19:39:45
If butland goes I'd rather get his value in cash I don't think silva is what we need but 10m for jack could be well spent.
10
14 Apr 2024 19:55:09
Nope to Silva. He will go back and not return.
11
14 Apr 2024 20:05:54
Wouldn't give them £5 million for silva. Flatters to deceive and dives about too much.
13
14 apr 2024 20:13:27
silva looks tome like a guy whos been bought fir way above his value, there's better young scottish players imo, we have lost our way with regards to homegrown talent.
Ferguson and shankland should be rangers players and possibly doig, and definitely barron, there talent here waiting to be found we used to be renowned for our scottish players, captains and strikers, we took our eyes off the ball, allowed beale to waste millions while real talent in scotland walked away, ferguson and shankland would have crawled over hot coals to play for rangers, it's such a shame we didn't see what they could have been, we need someone who once again knows what a talented boy with roots at rangers can bring, its always a bonus having your heart in the club.
14
14 Apr 2024 20:28:40
Not a chance. Silva is terrible.
3
14 Apr 2024 21:17:46
I wouldn’t pay £20 for him.
5
14 Apr 2024 22:03:21
Silva became Silvia after the diving queen performance against them. it’s a no for me. if Butland goes anywhere spend the money on players that can keep well grounded.
6
14 Apr 2024 22:54:32
We're never buying Silva!
With entry into the CL looking like it's not happening, I bet you, right here, that Butland gets sold on the cheap.
1
15 Apr 2024 06:58:02
Money for Butland - a big YES
Offset to buy Silva - a big NO.
13
15 Apr 2024 09:04:53
Silva for me falls into the same category as Goldson and Lundstrum. The sooner he is gone the better. Nothing but a poser with an inflated opinion of his own ability.
If Butland is to go then we need to maximise the fee we receive for him. We will need around £40m to bring in the level of player needed rather than sign more 3rd rate players with no fight and totally lacking in a winning mentality.
6
15 Apr 2024 09:07:37
Rtr, wouldn't surprise me. I've always said he would be off and if we somehow manage to get double figures for him we will be doing well imo.
No where near the pot PC is going to need to AGAIN rebuild a team with at least 6 needed for next year.
0
15 Apr 2024 09:18:21
Tbh, i've been disappointed with Silva.

15 Apr 2024 15:37:17
There's far betters players out there for quarter price than silva. he was shocking yesterday. cash dealfor butland and we move on.
1
15 Apr 2024 16:49:54
Silva couldn't hack it with that World power Wolves so that signing is very odd . Reminds me of Alfie Conn who didn't like the rain or the cauld and hid, he left Mr Bean at left back to do it all himself and we know he can't do it even when he has help . The manager surely must have clocked this pair before. he could drag the first 2 out the stand and they would do better.

13 Apr 2024 13:59:37
Just after reading an article that kemar roofe has four clubs vying for his signature at the end of the season 🤔The named clubs that are allegedly wanting to sign roofe are, fulham, sheff utd, southampton and QPR 🤔
I think fulham would be a superb move for roofe 🤔.
5
13 Apr 2024 14:47:48
Thought he was retiring.
8
13 Apr 2024 14:57:35
They must have money to burn then. Paying wages to someone that is never fit.
7
13 Apr 2024 15:07:27
Can't really see Fulham wanting him.
2
13 Apr 2024 15:45:54
He'll find it very difficult to find a club that'll be happy for him to play 2 or 3 games a season.
3
13 Apr 2024 16:11:58
Can't see any club wanting him - plays 1 game and then on the treatment table for 9 months.
3
13 Apr 2024 18:08:51
I think it’s utter bs that any club wants him who would want a player that’s never fit.
1
13 Apr 2024 19:00:13
Storm, none of us know what club or clubs want roofe and what his current situation is with fitness/ injury etc 🤔 I'm only sharing with everyone on here an article i read online i think it was from the scotsman, no need to get your knickers in a twist over it mate.
6
13 Apr 2024 19:17:47
Storm was the one saying roofe actually wasn't just retiring he stated he'd already retired on thursday there 🤔 Wrong.

13 Apr 2024 19:55:54
As long as it’s not rangers he signs f.

13 Apr 2024 20:20:39

5
13 Apr 2024 20:58:35
I’d be very surprised if any of the mentioned teams are indeed interested in signing him. Can’t imagine any club offering a decent contract for kemar, maybe short term or pay as you play.
1
13 Apr 2024 21:06:02
Couldn't give a monkey's who he signs for as long as it's not us. He gave us a season's worth of games in four years in return for £5.5million. Thank you very much and cheerio.
8
13 Apr 2024 21:34:46
At least some other club can pay his 35k a week he's been robbing from us the past 4 seasons.
4
13 Apr 2024 22:11:14
Walter, u would want us to keep roofe at 1.7 million a year he has screwed us for enough.
Manager not that stupid I hope.
8
13 Apr 2024 22:42:28
Roofe hadn't screwed us enough/ out of anything pal🤔 He's had constant injury problems which we're led to believe has got to him psychologically and no wonder because it would p**s off anyone 🤔
At no time did i say we most definitely should keep roofe but if our manager does then i back him simple as 🤔 Roofe never asked to have these constant injury problems just listen to yourself mate!
4
13 Apr 2024 22:51:18
Hubby Roofe cost us 10m+ wages included, fair bit of cash for us, was he worth it, certainly not in my opinion, few great finishes.
3
14 Apr 2024 06:26:58
Yes coops and I admitted I read it wrong my knickers ain’t in a twist I leave that up to you 🤦♂️ I forgot you never get anything wrong on here 🤯.
Roofe has stole a wage of rangers far too long and there is no danger he signs for Fulham as they aren’t that stupid to sign him.
Mystar you are correct no where near worth it but it’s the old rubbish from coops when fit he is the best player in the “world” we had it with Kent when he was here 😂.
6
14 Apr 2024 09:30:12
John, Hubby, Storm, Comeonrangers! Oh dear! What you are all saying here is one steaming pile of jimmy white!
I agree with My Star's evaluation of Roofe, which is a much more balanced, and accurate summoning up of his contribution compared to the "stole a wage", "contempt", "screwed us", single fish!
1
14 Apr 2024 10:12:25
Raise the roofe we tried to get rid last season, he refused a pay off as he wanted contract fully paid.
If clement keeps roofe or Jack his judgement will be questioned.
8
14 Apr 2024 10:41:58
Storm u like me ror and many others lift our hand if we make a mistake. We all make mistakes it’s a site for rumours etc we here or believe
Least we don’t get called out like the other on here who replied to his own posts,
5
14 Apr 2024 10:42:05
John, he has a employment contract and is not screwing us or holding the fans or the club in contempt. You clearly don’t like him and are entitled to your opinion. In my opinion he is the best natural striker at Ibrox. When we signed him we knew all about his injury record and took a risk. But for his injury record he would be playing at a much higher level than Rangers.
2
14 Apr 2024 11:34:32
🤣🤣🤣 That's rich coming from someone who has banged on on the past about players having a contract that must be honoured.
Roofe, like all other players with contracts, is quite within his right to say no if he was going to lose money. The guy has a young family, and with his career nearing an end, do you think he should just take what's offered?
Considering how much you stuck up for Morelos (who was clearly treating the club, and us supporters with contempt), this is a clear show of hypocrisy and double standards from you.
2
14 Apr 2024 11:43:48
Roofe obviously you will back him as you obviously like him because of his name but if you are happy with what he has produced since coming here that’s up to you my opinion last 2 years he has stolen a wage plain and simple.
Bankie he can’t show us being the best natural striker stuck on the treatment table 🤯
Ps roofe you been having a go at barasic (which I agree with) but you defend Roofe doesn’t make any sense because at least barasic is fit the majority of the time 🤯.
0
14 Apr 2024 11:47:18
That’s very true John.
If I get called out I will always reply if I see the post someone sees the post and very rarely replies and it’s getting more and more noticeable now.

14 Apr 2024 11:53:49
Bankie I love roofe,
Ror my point he refused a payoff as he wanted everything, how many minutes in 2 and a half season
All about opinions.
2
14 Apr 2024 14:15:35
I doubt that Roofe has cost us that much since for the majority of the time he has been out injured the Insurance will have been paying the majority of his wages. If the Insurers have questioned the claims made it isn't really surprising given the number of players that have been out injured and in any event it is down to the folks that signed an injury prone player in the first instance.

14 Apr 2024 15:01:22
