JFK-1 1,693 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 1 hour ago, buster. said: I thought he was sending a message to the board as to negotiating tactics, eg. Lafferty. It’s being reported that I think it was Levein who is saying Lafferty’s “head has been turned” by the Rangers interest. Hardly surprising and you would think that might make it all the more imperative for them to strike a reasonable deal and offload him. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only thing I heard him say was he is in a rush and expects two more before Aberdeen game . This was what he actually said '24 hours' is used by paper earlier in article and seems to have been their take on the enboldened text below. .............Gerrard wants new players on board this week. Asked after the Latics clash about reinforcements before Aberdeen he said: “I would love that. I hope it is tomorrow. I am in a rush. “The Kean deal is finished. We have loads of targets we have been monitoring. Unfortunately, we couldn’t get an agreement with Kean. He wants to keep his options open and we respect that. You can see quite clearly today that we need a centre-back so that is definitely an area that we are trying to add in. Hopefully it will be sooner rather than later.”.................... https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/steven-gerrard-rush-recruit-rangers-13001140 Edited July 30, 2018 by buster. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it fair to say he wants a couple players (probably a CH and a CF) sharpish and it's understandable.

Gogso 1 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Appreciating that Lafferty evokes mixed opinions I would highlight that when I saw him at tynecastle Vs the sheep late last season he was unplayable. He can do a job for us for sure. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usual papers cutting bits to create a story down the line. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be useful for the Aberdeen game (Sunday), I think you'd need to get them in by end of play, today. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
