Now that the window is closed, maybe we will get some peace from the "we must sign Shankland" brigade, at least till the Summer window when no doubt it will start again.

We must sign Shankland in the summer lol.
seriously though we need firepower in the summer unless what we have come exceptionally good and move up a few gears and levels for too long 1st we kind of relied on Morelos who's temperament was suspect and commitment was zero and of the rest we've had so much bad luck with injury prone forwards like back in the 90s apart from the leg brake can anyone remember Coisty being out for any significant time because I don't Hately Neither we need good gola scoring healthy players which is going to be difficult to find on a small budget like ours but they are out there somewhere.

And TBH player used to play through the pain with niggles seems these days it's a different calibre of mindset slighter gust of wind that blows a stand of hair out of place and the players out for 6 weeks and it frustrates the life out of me I'm in my mid 40s now not as fit as I used to be and I'd probably rack up more games per season that a lot of players these days.

I read that Gala offered Yilmaz less money than he’s on now, good way to get someone in?

John it was some just couldn’t or didn’t want to see it.

John, it’s obvious to me that we didn’t have the funds to make a move for Shankland in this window, whether we wanted him or not.
Looks like we were in the market for loan to buy deals which of course Hearts wouldn’t entertain.

John, I agree management did not fancy Shankland, however a lot of posters could not see that.

Think we all need to take a breath, and have some faith our Manager and his staff know what they are doing.
As has been said Shankland clearly was not desired. Am sure PC knows we cannot afford any more forward injuries (can Celtic, hearts or Aberdeen for that matter! ) .
Plus…. sterling looks like he has found a niche in midfield, even tho that was not his primary position, so no reason why a forward player (who is not necessarily a striker), cannot perform more of a goal getting role. Am Sure PC understands what it takes to get more out of the likes of Silva.

Who needs Shankland when we have the prolific Dessers ? I honestly think Silva is the main scorer infinitely better all around playing. Dessers is one of the worst Rangers strikers I have ever seen.
