Rangers have failed in attempts to negotiate a price for denkey and McKenna and will move to other targets.

Shame re: Denkey. We desperately need a prolific striker in asap, along with a LB, (should Yilmaz leave) and imo another wide player. Not sure we need another CB, but that just my opinion.

Who are the other targets John? Any names would be appreciated?


8.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 09:34:34
Now I’m getting concerned if I’m honest. Just feels like we’re waiting for Ridvan or someone else to leave permanently. I’m guessing Denkey was our striker target John? McKenna should have been a deal that was doable, but as he wanted to move this month. With no movement on Davies that would have been difficult I guess.

Frustrating window so far. Not sure if it’s FFP or the fact we have little money to spend, but this was an important window for us and them. Whoever comes out the strongest, wins the league for me. We’re toiling at the moment.


9.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 09:38:02
Thanks for the update John. Disappointing news as I'd take them both for sure. At least it gives some comfort that we're trying to strengthen those areas. is it a sign Davies has agreed a move elsewhere?


10.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 09:39:11
Denkey looked the business so that’s bit of knock.

If we don’t sign shankland before hearts play in the cup I don’t think it will happen as he would be cup tied so get it done.

Can’t win a header at corners course we need a cb.


14.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 10:01:17
Again, money the issue. Its a good thing the club won't be held to ransom. but we need reinforced up front and in defence urgently, I still await 2 loans maybe, we clearly are not prepared to spend (unless we sell)


15.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 10:04:32
We need a dominant commanding in the air centre back.
It’s blatantly obvious this is a major problem for us.
We should’ve tried for porteous.
A centre back and a striker are the 2 most important positions need filled.

Followed by a game controlling centre mid.

The rest is wishful

Cheers for update John.


16.) 18 Jan 2024

Feel like Denkey was always out of our price range. Wouldn’t mind us having a look at players like Karweina who’s playing in Austria. Plays across the front line and has 8 goals and 7 assists in 16 games in the Austrian league for a team sitting in 5th. 24 years old and out of contract in the summer. Currently valued at 1.5m and linked with a move to bundesliga. I’d rather buy the best players in leagues at a similar standard to us than buying rubbish players in the top league (not saying that about Denkey more relating to Dessers and Lammers etc. )


17.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 10:12:18
Mckenna is hopeless, can't believe we were seriously considering him.


18.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 10:39:07
Starting to look like the spfl could end up like the league of Ireland in 5 years or so. Players from Dundee and Motherwell being recalled from epl 6 months early proves the league isn't respected anymore. Rangers and Celtic struggling to attract players so what's it going be like in 5 years from now? Worrying times.


19.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 10:41:34
Denkey would have been a very good signing. McKenna isn’t a loss.

Herbert that’s just bs if anything the Beck situation shows Liverpool respected Dundee and what they were doing to the point they recalled him in case he had to play for them. Had Liverpool not had the injuries they’ve had I guarantee you Beck would still be at Dundee.

Tried for porteous? He pished on a war memorial could you imagine him swaggering about on armed forces day. He got a canvas of him booting Morelos the wee scumbag would never get near our club.


26.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 11:25:14
Its always the same every year. We get linked to every Tom Dick or Harry and the manager comes on and says we are close with signing a few, but i can't say any more than that. We never get who we want and end up taking Dross like Dessers and Lammers. Celtic are ahead of us no matter how we hate to say that and will continue to be so for years to come unless we get our fingers out. Its a joke really every transfer window is the same big promises and then fans left mystefied and dejected.

David b we offered a club record fee off around 8 million for denkey is my info.


28.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 11:30:26
Was Denky a loan as he's valued at over 5m as for McKenna I'm not too bothered he's ok but that's all I get the feeling the club are stalling until we sell yilmaz or if we sell all the while rhe other mob have made 1 signing and now targeting a lB and striker.


29.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 11:53:52
That’s very true John, but any money coming in would help. It’s difficult I guess when you don’t actually know what’s happening behind the scenes.

Can’t believe the info you got was that we offered £8m for Denkey. This certainly gives me hope that we can sign a player of quality.

Arsenal recalled Biereth, have a word .


31.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 12:02:46
Really surprised to hear we're ready to drop £8m on a player. The guy has a good recent record, and I absolutely think we should be prioritising a player who has a record of scoring goals, just didn't expect us to be ready to go with such a high fee.


32.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 12:04:04
Just proves we DO have money to spend. We're just being cautious how we spend it after the summer there.

I have faith in big Phil, but I hate January. Wake me up on the 1st of Feb.

Chasni, bennet and Gibson r stepping up.


35.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 12:21:34
Kevin denkey would have been some signing for us and what a statement of intent that would have thrown out ?He was my top choice for a striker to sign followed by my 2nd choice michy batshuayi ? It shows how much we rated denkey if we were prepared to pay a staggering £8million for him ?.


36.) 18 Jan 2024

Is our club record fee not 12 million for tore Andre flo.


38.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 12:41:45
Transfer fees paid on the drip, so for example £8m deal right now we need to chuck in £2m initially and pay the rest over 4 years or longer . We don't have a tie and blazer crew who have big money so it's the fans / working stiffs and sponsors that are relied on .

Let's find a Saudi soon they don't need blazers either.


39.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 12:42:30
It certainly is davie1980, maybe John meant a record fee received for that club mate.


40.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 13:08:30
Davie I thought that also. Maybe wrong
John227 it’s good to see board are willing to back PC
I also believe that PC will need at least 4 windows to make it his own team. ???????????.

That’s great to hear John. Let’s be honest, we need someone to step up if we want to build on the trophy we’ve already won this season. Hopefully a solid end to the window.


44.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 13:24:25
So is Denkey dead in the water now then or could we go back in? Any idea how far apart we were in terms of valuation? Shame the ideal type of player that could score some goals and move on for a steady profit! I thought there would be money available for the right type of player!


45.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 13:42:35
Disappointed in Denkhy but it shows the board will try and get players in and will put out money if needed, they have made mistakes in the past but will always try and and back the manager unfortunately they backed the wrong one in the summer and it cost us.


46.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 13:50:56

Not fussed on McKenna.

Another positive contribution from u.

49.) 18 Jan 2024

To be fair John a lot of us tried 2 forget about Flo?.

54.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 16:38:53
I don’t think £8million is a good offer for denkey think we were trying our luck if I am honest still shows we have money and are willing to spend.


55.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 16:44:37
I'm sorry John your info is off on that one, it's not true.


56.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 16:49:07
Happy about these two though as I feel we would have overpaid for den key because of current jump in form and McKenna I’ve never liked just a thug of a footballer.


57.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 16:51:43
Disappointing John, but understandable. I always feel that other than loan signings to get decent quality, you have to pay over the odds in the January window. I would have liked both players mentioned since I believe that both would strengthen the Team on two positions where I believe we are weak.


58.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 17:26:34
Did Flynn not score 24 goals or something? Not too bad a record if I remember correctly, not his fault the price was heavy inflated.


59.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 17:31:28
£8 million ??‍♂️ I hope that’s a joke. Ridiculous when we can go and get a proven spl goalscorer and a winger for that.

John I actually agree with you and liked flo was good player just price tag we expected more.


62.) 18 Jan 2024
18 Jan 2024 18:36:48
If its the fee we can`t agree with McKenna we can always go back in, in the summer and get him for nothing . If its his wages then he`s being a bit short sighted, not playing could cost him his Scotland place at the Euros. Its his loss, there are other centre backs out there although his big asset is his Scottishness . Just like Doig we can do better for less money but getting them helps us fill our Scottish places in Europe.
