Very interesting thread below. Got a bit heated😂 I have heard that there is very serious interest in Campbell from Rangers but not sure whether to sign now or on a pre contract for next season.
If people say they know coaches at various clubs then let's just accept that that is true. Sometimes from experience these youth coaches etc like to give the impression that they are in the loop with potential signings etc just because they have a job at their respective club. They may well do or they may be spouting rubbish but the guys on here are only passing on what they've heard. I know a current player reasonably well and I can honestly say that he has never told me any gossip, has never confirmed or denied any transfer rumours or indeed gave any opinions on who he thinks we should sign etc. Infact its quite the opposite. He has told me that players more often than not read the speculation the same as the fans.
Let's try to get on lads and respect one anothers opinions.

Good post MocBear 😊.
03 Oct 2020 09:52:31
MOC You are right we need to believe them why would they lie.
03 Oct 2020 10:22:40
Hope we don't ruin him like Hastie, If I was a young Scottish player I'd come nowhere Rangers, SG has given none of our own youngsters a proper chance. Wee question is this young boy any better than Docherty, McCrorie, Hastie, Kelly, Middleton if not his career will stall here and before anybody says this is a negative post it isn't its a facts based post.
03 Oct 2020 10:58:47
Campbell isn't any better than who we have or guys like Lewis Fergus on is a better shout.
03 Oct 2020 11:21:09
Mccrorie did have opportunity’s, so did Middleton to say he’s not gave anyone a chance that’s nonsense.
03 Oct 2020 11:26:57
Onewaltersmith, if steven gerrard thinks allan campbell is better than lewis ferguson and who we currently have, then that's all that counts and i'll trust him on it ðŸ‘Allan Campbell imo is better than lewis ferguson, simple as that to what i've seen. Superb post MOCBEAR, as i know one of the motherwell youth coaches, who in turn told me that the word in there amongst them at fir park is that rangers are very interested in young allan campbell and it had got as far, as figures had been discussed, ie. seemingly 750k rising to £1.5million in add ons.
This may or may not come to fruition, but i'm only sharing with fellow bears on here, to what i've been told! 🤔.
03 Oct 2020 11:39:19
When did McCrorie get opportunities?
03 Oct 2020 11:42:47
Good post Coops, don’t believe boy coming to us this window.
03 Oct 2020 11:43:01
Ferguson is scoring goals every week for the sheep, even if some are pens. I don’t think he is good enough never mind Campbell to get in our 11. We need people to push for starting 11 not guys lucky if they get in the squad.
03 Oct 2020 11:48:33
The maddest comment I could see was comparing Iain black to Gazza.
Not in the same league at all- Gazza has never done an undercoat in his life.
03 Oct 2020 12:01:19
I don't think any of the names mentioned are or will be any better than what we have so would be pointless signings. Any signings should be immediate first team startersðŸ‘.
03 Oct 2020 12:24:19
great post moc but i can't respect that one by sweep.
03 Oct 2020 12:29:21
Lewis Ferguson is a hell of a lot better than Campbell how can anyone watch these two players and think it’s close is beyond me
03 Oct 2020 13:05:23
I can't respect your opinion aswell then Eric Blair.
03 Oct 2020 13:43:38
Did you see any of the recent aberdeen v motherwell game KJA9?
Allan Campbell ran lewis ferguson ragged my friend. Said on here before lewis ferguson very overrated and some folk on here only want him incase he could get near to what his dad and uncle was in ability 😂 He'll never be anywhere near them,
trust me!
03 Oct 2020 13:59:50
Ferguson is no better than McCrorie, would be madness to let 1 go for 250k and buy the other for a couple of million.
03 Oct 2020 14:37:10
Both players have potential They won’t be signings for now tho they would be with an eye on the future. I really like Ferguson definitely has more to his game than McRorie as a Cm no doubt.
03 Oct 2020 14:41:37
Campbell is a very different player to Ferguson, it depends what the gaffer believes we need in the middle of the park. Personally I’d be going for Campbell for 500K or getting him on a pre contract. He’s aggressive with a swagger and best I could compare him to in style is a Stuart McCall or dare I say it Scott Brown. I wouldn’t be paying 1M+ for Ferguson .
03 Oct 2020 14:43:08
Ps. Good to see you back Coop ðŸ».
03 Oct 2020 14:47:21
@SGl got too agree mate I don’t and have never fancied Ferguson coming to us
I would have liked to see Zunga from Amiens though coming
His passing ability looks awesome and he can put a tackle in too
Look forward to see who ever comes in and hopefully they can hit the ground running. Assuming we do actually go for one more transfer.
03 Oct 2020 16:43:28
SGL who would Campbell replace in the Rangers midfield.
03 Oct 2020 16:55:16
Cheers scotty123 much appreciated pal ðŸ‘.
03 Oct 2020 18:43:29
I’ll answer that John nobody! I know people are sick of hearing Mccrorie but if Mccrorie went to Motherwell he would easily be their best midfielder and we’re practically giving him away. I’ve nothing against young Campbell but guys like that stick out at Motherwell cause he was given the chance to play regular football with very little pressure as he started so young that’s something you’ll never get at rangers regardless of age. Best of luck to him but not going to get near our starting eleven and he was poor against us last week also.
03 Oct 2020 18:52:04
Says a lot about you Eric eh? If you can’t respect another guys opinion,
Sweep I believe McCrorie has had about 50 games.
03 Oct 2020 18:58:16
John25,if we were to sign campbell it would be for the future mate or if we sold a midfielder. I've never once said i think we should go all out and sign campbell, i've been told we're interested in signing him that's all pal. The answer to your question however would be i wouldn't drop anyone for campbell, but that would apply to zungu, lewis ferguson or whoever also, as we're looking very good in that department. The old saying, 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it'! Hope that answers your question 🤔.
03 Oct 2020 19:00:03
John25,who would lewis ferguson,
zungu replace in the rangers midfield mate 🤔🤔.
03 Oct 2020 19:07:02
Csmpbell wouldn't even make our bench at this moment in time
03 Oct 2020 19:22:40
Ferguson will not be coming to us, as neil lennon has enquired about him and we all know he is a celtic fan and even barry said the other day that celtic are intrested in lewis.
I have heard that gerrard has spoke to liverpool about a few loan players.
03 Oct 2020 20:56:18
Everybody is very wrong then eh .
03 Oct 2020 21:25:35
Not that one tom, which i pointed out, and definitely not yours cause you don't read. or should i say oldo. another one.
03 Oct 2020 22:44:17
SGL. They would not replace anyone in our midfield because none of them r better than who we play in first team.
Why buy Campbell for future, when during C.V. money is tight. Campbell can be signed fir bosman in January with a development fee.
04 Oct 2020 07:49:04
John25,i didn't say for us to buy campbell, i merely stated that i was told we have an interest in signing that's all mate.
04 Oct 2020 19:49:34
You quoted prices we discussed, blah blah blah.
