I did say I would keep fellow bears up to speed on what info I did have on the michael o'halloran possible transfer to rangers situation, been told by my source who knows the family very well was speaking to michael o'halloran's dad who's a celtic youth coach and its only the transfer fee between rangers and st. johnstone that's holding the transfer up from being completed, the duration of the contract and wages has been all agreed between rangers and o'halloran and the player is very keen to sign for rangers but is being totally professional about it and knows its a waiting game between both clubs to hopefully reach agreement.

This is false. until a fee is agreed the player would not be given permission to talk to us to agree personal terms of a contract. utter nonsense.

{Ed001's Note - that is not always true, sometimes a player will agree a deal beforehand. It depends on the circumstance, but if a club is open to selling they will allow interested clubs to discuss a deal so that the interested club can check if it is worth pursuing them.}

Let's hope so. Ohalloran in between waggy and mackay would make our forward line amazingly quick esp on the counter. And give us a boost on the run in. Anyone else heard Leeds have had a bid accepted by Brentford for diagouraga? Don't know how much.

Surely this cannot be correct as St Johnstone haven't given Rangers permission to speak to O'Halloran as no fee has been agreed and he had 18 month left on his contract somI doubt this very much!

{Ed001's Note - they don't have to agree a fee to speak to the player, they can be given permission at any time, it is up to the club who owns his contract.}

Cheers Ed didn't know that!

{Ed001's Note - it usually just means they are open to selling the player, though even that can change and they refuse to sell despite player and interested club agreeing terms. Chelsea and Alex Teixeira being a current example of that, Shakhtar were open to selling, allowed Chelsea to set up a deal with the player for a January transfer, then the owner decided he did not want to sell him and raised the price. Hence all the rumours flying round about him as other clubs have tried to jump in quick.}

O'Holloran is not the answer. He is a quick nothing player who will not progress at Rangers and make us better. No offence to the lad he is a decent mid table player at best. but if the board and the fans have the views and goals of MW then we have to aim higher than that. Just for a joke surely we can't have O'HALLORAN on the back of a rangers top lol.

Forfarger, listen to what the ed is saying, if you genuinely think that what I originally posted doesn't happen in the football circle then you're very naive where football business is concerned mate, think what I actually posted for a second before jumping the gun.

So the ed speaking here is the same guy as the poster! someone keeps deleting my posts that i reply to this Warburtonthefifteenth. You are doing a fine job in defending him.

{Ed001's Note - don't talk rubbish. I am nothing to do with the poster and have nothing to do with O'Halloran nor do I know anyone connected with him. I was merely pointing out that it is possible for the player to agree a deal. However, your petty personal attacks on the poster I have deleted. If you want to be a moron and mindlessly abuse others, you can go elsewhere. If you want to grow up and discuss it like a civilized human being then carry on.}

Warburtonthefifteenth, my apologies, didn't realise this was the case, I thought a bid had to be accepted and permission given to negotiate terms.

Ed- iv revived plenty personal abuse including a homophobic jibe on this site from warburtonthefifteenth and other posters. How come that was fair game?

{Ed001's Note - if I had edited it, then it would have been deleted and he would have been blocked and his account deleted. I didn't see it so I really can't comment, I can only apologise and I will instruct the other editors to look out for stuff like that and delete the post and block the person posting it. So my apologies. It is sad that people think it is ok to abuse those with a different opinion.}

I just read Leeds manager Evans interview about signing diagouraga, he said "obviously you don't get to speak to a player without agreeing a fee, we agreed a fee and then talked. so warburtonthefifteenth and the ed also, an experienced English championship manager has also said what I said this morning, is he naive and wrong also?

{Ed001's Note - he is saying that because he has been given grief for illegal approaches in the past. It does happen that players can speak to another club, with permission from their current club ahead of a fee being agreed. Not often, but it does.}

im not commenting anymore, I've made my post which has been echoed by and experienced manager and I've been slated for it, it's seems like some people don't like admitting when they are wrong. i previously apologised to warburton the fifteenth on here as I thought I was wrong. however the ed that slated me has not apologised and accepted he may be wrong this time!

{Ed001's Note - whatever. I am telling you I know it happens, I really do not care what a proven liar has said. You might want to check his history before using him as a testament to truth. I never slated you anyway, man up a bit for heavens sake. What kind of precious child gets whiny like this over someone pointing out an instance where it has happened so is possible?}

Blue-bear-stevie, you take a chill pill my friend because I've read some of your posts and I wouldn't post what I think of them or the ed will ban me, its a rumours page and if we have sources and stories we've heard about rangers then surely that's what its all about, calm down, take a deep breath and relax, not being arrogant here mate but I firmly believe I've forgot more about our great club than you will ever know, also never miss going to see rangers everywhere for over forty years matey!

Luigi, if I have offended you with any of my comments then you have my apology, in saying that I certainly wouldn't make a homophobic comment to yourself, just not me mate so I honestly don't know what you're referring to, its only all about the rangers for me on this site.
