Forget Stevie Naismith, his best years are behind him
The type of credentials that he brings to the game where he hunts every ball and closes opponents down, he no longer can do over 90mins The fact that he will take at LEAST 15k per week let's forget it! I would like to see both, Jane Walker and Ryan Turncliffe at the club If not, Jamie Walker please and that will be finished business! We should go out and pay £800,000 for him and if rejected then forget it He will come for free, hopefully



26 Jul 2017 01:43:20
Kenny millers 37 and chases every ball. Naismith is signing according to my contact it's a done deal



26 Jul 2017 07:33:44
Ryan Tunncliffe. Where would he play when we already have an abundance of centre mids?



26 Jul 2017 07:39:18
Don't understand why people talk absolute garbage lol you even seen Naismith play recently? Obviously not with that comment. He's coming back get over it.



26 Jul 2017 08:45:50
He really isn't the same player as he was at Rangers and Everton I don't think he is coming Much will Norwich want for him and then what wages will. he be on?



26 Jul 2017 09:23:16
He's scored in every pre season game he's played lol butt he's no a player anymore.



26 Jul 2017 10:55:58
We will see what players turn up for the struggle on a winter's night in Dingwall, or at a rain soaked Caledonian stadium.
If Naismith is part of the team, It's guaranteed he'll be jostling, and fighting for every ball. the same for Jack and Dorrans alongside potential signings McLean and Walker.
I can't see the glove and scarf brigade winning us games in these situations. We must win all these games this season. No ifs or buts.



{Ed039's Note - Inverness play at the Caledonian stadium and they got relegated)

NOT A CHANCE. Are they Tarts going to hand back £800k, imo I do not think we should offer more than £600k! But if they do call our bluff then fine, we would like Walker now but will wait until end of Window!

As Budge CANNOT pass up hundreds of thousands. As far as I'm aware Hearts haven't actually sold and made much profit from Transfers of late (Including Patterson) AND their New Stand coming in over Budget! So due to that and the funds required to bring in Lafferty, that is EXACTLY WHY! They are holding out for as much as possible. Budge knows just how big a difference there is for them between getting £500k and pushing us to £8-850k even £600k which is basically guaranteed.

This will go to last day with Hearts having 2-3 players waiting in the wings to sign up but need to wait until the Walker deal is finalised. They are playing with fire as if it does go t! t$ up with timing they will not only be out of pocket and no new signing but also have one unhappy Player for at least 6 months.

And think we play Hearts in our 2nd or 3rd game at Ibrox.
Im actually starting to feel for Walker as fair enough a Club can ask for X amount but due to the amount of time he has lleft on his Contract and his age basically rendering the compensation figure for Hearts at NOTHING! then the Club should NEGOTIATE! And not say Yeah £1m nothing less. I would say anything over £600k is a fair price.



27 Jul 2017 00:21:31
Hearts just holding out for as much as they can get Kaz. Walker is a good Player and if he had 2-3yrs on his Contract to go then yeah 1m would be a fair price BUT with that and being 24 making the Club exempt from any compensation for development which would have prob been around 400k.

Anyways Hearts will wait 3-4 wks if it means getting a bid of 850k instead of 800k! ! THEY DO NEED THE CASH!



27 Jul 2017 00:30:07
Look Bears this is just my opinion but I just wanted to say that YES Walker should come! We're crying out for a decent Winger and the lad ticks ALL the boxes!
If we have funds available that we can stull bring in McLean AND Naismith then those funds should be used in a much better way!

How much do we think it would cost to bring in McLean and Naismith?
Want opinions! So Fees, 1m each? Or more!
Wages 15k-Naismith 10k-McLean!
THIS IS RIDICULOUS!

If we have over 2m to spend and can afford 25k a week then we must bring in a Player ONE Player of substance and not TWO Who we really do not need as our Central Mid is good AND we have Forwards who haven't even been given a chance!

And I'm not saying Naismith is past it BUT his best is behind him but yeah he'll grab goals. But if we do have the Funds then try and bring an creative Player to the Club. Someone whos ability demands 25-30k a week instead of squad Players that we already have.
I'D RATHER HAVE WEISS ALL DAY LONG!



27 Jul 2017 00:31:29
boy should be a first pick for out national team every time and is miles better than what we have here at the moment so i don't understand all these people with their grudges he said some stupid stuff he retracted and went to tripple his money in the best league in the world rather than quarter his wage and play in the duldrums of scottish football yeah that's a disgrace lmfao.

what would u have done i woulda been off in a heart beat no questions asked i love my team deeply but if i trained all my life to be a pro footballer why then given that choice would i stay in the devision 3 of scottish football when i could be in the best league in the world



27 Jul 2017 00:38:53
Naismith wpuld play a similar role to miller but he's a far better footballer, just don't think well be able to get him, playing well pre season for norwich.



26 Jul 2017 14:56:46
Apologies Ed. you get the point though. No Gifting vital points to bottom end teams. Lack of urgency last season was draining! And it was down to players who were not willing to fight, but happy to spin the "we must try better next week" spiel.



25 Jul 2017 20:07:16
Anyone who says Rangers don't need Kenny McLean are not right in the head. Rangers need players like him and Walker more than they need a constantly injured Rossiter and Kranjcar. We haven't even seen Pena yet. Dorrans and Jack are good signings, but adding McLean, Walker and Naismith would be a real sign of intent for me. I hope funds are availible.



27 Jul 2017 00:36:01
i would take him in a min but if its between him and either of the other two mentioned i would leave him out.

rangers need players and mclean naisy walker and moult are all on your radar but we will only get two my preference is naisy and walker with walker being the must have signing as we currently don't poses a natural scoring winger like him



25 Jul 2017 17:48:37
Naisy will be signing I know a man who knows a man!



25 Jul 2017 18:26:05
I hope so and I'm sure he could fit into the team not a problem.



25 Jul 2017 18:36:44
Heard this from various people my only wonder is how are we getting him surely Norwich are going to want some of the 9mil they paid for him back surely? I'd take him back in a heartbeat he's a nasty wee bastard and a nasty wee bastard with a lot of making up to do at that.



25 Jul 2017 19:11:26
Hope your right dazbear . would be a superb signing . just can't see it lads .



25 Jul 2017 21:50:02
Naismith would be a quality signing but if we are struggling to meet the 1m Hearts want for Walker it probably sums up our chances of getting either of them but it would great if we did.



26 Jul 2017 21:38:02
Regarding Naismith it all comes down to MONEY! PLAIN AND SIMPLE!
IMO, If we could get him for 1m or less then ok I'd talk to him with a Contract of 15k a week. If this were the financial parameters of deal then a move to Ibrox is on the Cards.

BUT what about the Players we have brought in! We do not know if Herrera and Morelos are going to bang in 25-30 plus a Season EACH! WE SIMPLY DO NOT KNOW!

Plus most Players second stint at a Club is usually not as good as first.
Look I just think that if we have 1m to spend on a Player AFTER we bring in Walker I would rather spend that money on either a Winger or poss use it to bring back McGregor but will Norwich sell at 1m? Would they need to pay Naisy something, in terms of loss of wages as he's apparently on FIFTY HAHA A WEEK!

Sorry Bears but if me I would not spend the funds on Naismith!
After Walker that'll be a combined expenditure of what £9-10m!
A sum that would have been mocked! I personally thought King would have raised £5m and banked on any sales from the likes of Wags etc



27 Jul 2017 00:22:44
copland01 I definitely do not think that we are struggling to meet Hearts valuation. Hearts are just trying to squeeze every penny out of the Players Transfer as they NEED IT!

I think that now that Europe is off the table and with a fair bit of business done early then any remaining targets can be watched more closely as majority of Teams/ Players are starting to get up and running.

Also more time on negotiations as imo we may bring in Walker but we will have loanees from decent Clubs arriving may even have options with a total of 4 spaces (loans) and 1 seems to be taken wuth the Utd lad hopefully arriving, although imo not a position that's top of my list but sounds like a good Player.



27 Jul 2017 00:32:34
copland i don't think we are struggling to meet the 1 million fee for walker i just don't think the board want to pay that as hearts are inflating their price because its us that want him



25 Jul 2017 14:42:47
I see Stefan Aigner a German winger is available on a free looks very impressive he's 29 could be an alternative to walker



27 Jul 2017 00:33:09
or the left winger that we need!



25 Jul 2017 05:17:33
LoanHead67 - He's a boyhood Rangers fan and he's put in a transfer request because Hearts are him about, he's dying to come this window, learn to deal with it and sign another player with the money or MOH might be part of deal, either way don't try Stubbs tactics as it will never work with Bluenose Walker.



25 Jul 2017 10:48:33
I have said this before on another site. Jamie Walker as talented as he is, and I would love to have him, I don't think it will happen. His whole family are die in the wool jambo's. My daughter in law is pals with his sister and shes muted it won't happen. Still we'll wait and see.



25 Jul 2017 18:08:13
Jamie walker is a boyhood rangers fan fact



25 Jul 2017 21:17:18
Stop talking pish he's a rangers man



26 Jul 2017 16:47:41
Go to the Louden on a game night when Hearts aren't playing and you will see both Jamie Walker and Jordan McGhee of Hearts supporting the teds. McGhee being another player who will grace the hallowed turf at some stage in his career. Fact.



26 Jul 2017 06:30:58
Just to reiterate what BigBruno72 has just said! Get it in your head loanhead67,jamie walker is a boyhood glasgow rangers fan 200%! I suggest you go away and check your facts and any your so called contacts in the know, before coming on here talking absolute mince, regarding where walker's allegiances lie! Its rangers end of and get over it!



26 Jul 2017 12:51:01
well his family may be daft but the boy isn't he is a rangers fan and has come out and said he wants the move so why not i would pay the money for him if it was up to me as hears won't "BUDGE" lmao
ans to be honest i think a player like walker could make a massive difference to how many goals we acually score
