Reports Tav is close to joining Trabzonspor in Turkey? What are peoples thoughts on this? Really don't want to lose anyone but money talks : (



13 Aug 2016 23:48:53
Do u think its possible this is where the money for Garner is coming from? would be a shame to see him go, One of our best players.



13 Aug 2016 23:49:09
If Warburton gets hard cash in the region of £2m to spend on a centre half and striker through the sale of Tav I'd be happy enough.



13 Aug 2016 23:57:43
Hopefully we keep him, if he proves to be as good in the SPFL then he'd be worth more.

I think Hodson would do well in Taverniers absence but it makes more sense to keep Tav at Ibrox.

Hopefully the money isn't the winner in this scenario.



14 Aug 2016 00:03:10
Where are u hearing this? all I've seen is that their chairman says they are close to signing a right back, doesn't mention a name though.



14 Aug 2016 00:05:56
Can't see it happening at end of day tav will have a say if he don't want to leave they can't make him and I really can't seeing him wanting to go to Turkey with all that's going on over there and the fact there is more to achive for him at Ibrox than playing for trapsonspur. Also I don't think 2.5mill is enuff it would of course be a good profit for us but I think he could prove to be worth a lot more if he has another season or two playing well. Right backs that can score like he does are hard to come by so I really hope he stays.



14 Aug 2016 00:40:44
If Tavs currently played in the EPL he would be worth 3-4m player easy, If he scores the same amount this season and his defending improves, even for an SPFL player will be worth 4m! Got a feeling that him and others will have a minimum fee release clause in their contract and Warbs will have made sure that other teams will get them on the cheap!



14 Aug 2016 00:44:22
Cant see him wanting to go but 2.5mill is a fair price especially if it means garner n some fanni he can play rb or cb too.



14 Aug 2016 01:09:55
Can't see it, What player in there right mind would move to Turkey now, the European player are all trying to get out of the place!



14 Aug 2016 01:14:56
Brazilian RB Mayke is joining Trabzonspor for over a million.

Tavernier is staying.



14 Aug 2016 01:15:35
Disasrer if Tav goes. nnh.



14 Aug 2016 01:33:28
Get a grip . our biggest danger player is Tav. he's going nowhere. and we don't need a carthorse like garner either.



14 Aug 2016 03:18:27
Tav is here to stay for atleast another 2 seasons, he wants Champions League football, so this season and then next, that's when we'll be init ;)



14 Aug 2016 10:05:41
I'm hearing Joe Garner can be a Rangers player by start of week at around £800,000 this must be coming from the sale of Tav's to Trabzonspor, believed to be at around 3m! I hope not, as I see him as a key player and let's face it, who would want to go to Turkey just now.



14 Aug 2016 22:39:48
If Tav goes then good luck to him. Thanks for a good year. Personally, I'd accept 2.5m, a good bit of business. I wouldn't be concerned if he left either. At least when we played Celtic, Hodson would be guaranteed a start and we wouldn't ship 3/ 4 goals. If he stays and starts against them, well it's going to be embarrassing. Boy is a liability in defence.

Regarding Garner, take him in a heartbeat. Clinical. Would be a goal machine up here. Got it all. Love his 'the bird' celebration too. Real character. Official PNE video showing some his goals is worth a watch, includes one of the best goals ever scored.



15 Aug 2016 11:19:14
Bilbo what u talking about look at the last old firm tav was one our best players that day and defended brilliantly aswell I think is he scores half the goals he did last year and improves his defending he will be worth at least double that especially if we win the league!



15 Aug 2016 17:24:13
James, the goalie should've scored a couple last year in that Mickey Mouse league. Tav is no defmeder. We're a man down in defence at the start of every match. So many people lay the blame at DW and RK when Tav is the culprit. MW isn't going to move him into midfield so cash in. In the Old Firm, everyone played well. Remember Roberts missing a shocking sitter after bombing down Tav's flank and stretching DW and RK? Could've been a different result that day. Thankfully it wasn't.

Btw I like Tav but I'd be playing him against bottom 6 teams and Hodson top 6 IMO.



13 Aug 2016 23:53:23
If we get £3million then he can go.



13 Aug 2016 20:52:46
This is what BBC have just posted regarding our interest in Joe Garner:

"Rangers are sniffing around and they want to take Joe Garner, " said Grayson after Preston lost 2-1 to Fulham on Saturday. "We are not looking to sell.

"We don't want to sell anybody but every player has a price. "

Ibrox manager Mark Warburton has been keen to add another striker to his squad.

And he said after Saturday's 2-1 Scottish Premiership win over Dundee: "We are looking for a number of players. We're looking for a striking option and a defensive option. Hopefully we can make some progress in the next few days. ".



13 Aug 2016 21:04:48
Rafbob, I truly hope we will sign joe garner but I honestly feel he will be too expensive for us to buy, he only just signed a new 3 year contract with pne last season meaning he's still 2 years left on his contract, they will want over the 1 million quid mark for him and I honestly don't think we'll pay that, hope I'm wrong as he looks good and would do well with us especially the way we play and the chances we create.



13 Aug 2016 21:10:31
Warb15, I agree with what you're saying.

Been getting the impression that we are happy to enquire but with very limited funding for a while now.

Hopefully we can make an exception for this lad and a decent C. B.



13 Aug 2016 21:11:13
127 apps 49 goals . Do we think that's a good return? I'd take the lad as I think up here he'd rip it up as he's an out and out striker!



13 Aug 2016 21:39:56
It is a goal every 2.5 games; not a bad goal rate if you look at the level he's playing, I know it isn't premier league but it's better than SPFL standard.

I share your view that he'd do well up here Blackwoodbear.



13 Aug 2016 21:43:01
Rafbob, W15, given we have limited funds I think it better if we push the boat out on the CD position. Based on everything I have seen we now have a critical need for a quality central defender.



13 Aug 2016 21:52:07
I can't see us paying in the excess of 1 million for a player.



13 Aug 2016 21:59:50
Fd, your are 100% right but it looks as though we are further into this deal than any other.

Hopefully a C. B is quietly being sorted behind the scenes and they will announce it soon?

Not holding my breath though lads.



13 Aug 2016 22:29:31
BWB it's a better goal for game ratio than waghorn had.



13 Aug 2016 23:35:16
Worrying times ahead then if we can't stump up a million for a player.



14 Aug 2016 00:47:16
Think he'd be a good signing. I think some money has been there for players but we've been smart with the freebies n can spend money or cf and cb.



15 Aug 2016 11:25:07
how much would bougy be he said he wants back and is better than anything we have also kyle bartley is estimated at just under 1 million and that boy impressed me when he was here especially when he went through brown!
I think baougy is out of contract and bartley has a year left I think we would be better getting those two paired bougy is only 33 which I think is good for a cb and they both have good pace and can read the game.
its not a rumour its just an opinion!



13 Aug 2016 22:28:59
He cost £2/ 3million. So rules us out.



13 Aug 2016 23:54:53
I honestly don't think we have a a centre back lined up.



13 Aug 2016 15:12:15
Joe Garner played for Preston today. Was apparently supposed to be at dens park.



13 Aug 2016 15:44:47
Last appearance before coming to us.

If u ever watch a MW interview he'll always completely rubbish a story if it has no truth to it. His words were, linked with lots of players, get something done next 24/ 48 hours.

In other words, read between the lines. Joe Garner will be a Ranger in 24/ 48 hours.



13 Aug 2016 16:09:15
He certainly didn't deny his interest- but let's wait and see what happens.

Will we actually pay proper money for him?



13 Aug 2016 16:09:49
Need a cb are 2.



13 Aug 2016 16:19:53
Mr Nice.

Who gives a toss about proper money, the less we can get him for the better.

He didn't deny. This one is a goer.



13 Aug 2016 18:41:37
PNE Boss confirms we have enquired about Garner and says he is not looking to sell. However in his next sentence he indicates anyone can leave for the right price. which is a bit of a givaway. apparently PNE are desperate for the money to fund the signing of a new full back.



13 Aug 2016 19:27:10
Trust the hat. garner is like a better version of kris boyd btw.



13 Aug 2016 21:59:30
Better than kris boyd? Have a word with yourself bludie. no comparison. boydie at his best was a phenomenal hitman. we seem to like to have a pop at some of our own. boydies a legend and his record both with us, and a poor killie team is outstanding. just because he didn't beat 5 men every time he scored, doesn't take away what a great penalty box player he was. Garner's not a patch on Boydie at his best.



14 Aug 2016 08:44:33
Aye your right chinabear! Legend? phenomenon? Remind me of his record against the mhanky mhob again. my my.



14 Aug 2016 13:22:54
And in europe?



14 Aug 2016 14:39:43
Thorn - my point is that it will take proper money before Preston will let him go. Not the 250k we have spent so far but north of 1m, and probably quite a bit more.

Your right MW didn't deny it, so there's genuine interest bit there was genuine interest in other player's that we couldn't afford.



15 Aug 2016 09:21:03
Bearing in mind when we played celtic under watty our style was 9 men behind the ball and flood out on the counter and in Europe play 10 men behind the ball and hope for penalties lol. neither of which suited boyd a penalty box predator. Boyd was Scottish Footballs top scorer 4 out of 5 seasons, and the other (07-08) he scored 25 goals in 25 starts including practically winning league cup and scottish cup on his own. Smith didn't like him because his work ethic was non existent. That wasnt his game boyd. Say one thing though. The Boyd of 8 or 9 years ago would have a field day in this Rangers team. Our conversion of chances to goals in last year has been shocking. boyd in his heyday would av scored 50 goals last season in our team. and easily 30 in PL this season.



15 Aug 2016 11:31:55
bluedie what are u on mate what's his record against the manky mob got to do with it!
or Europe the guy was a legend in the spl.
what has garner done to be classed as a better player than boyd what has he done in Europe and has he ever played a celtic team?
your comment just didn't make sense to me mate boyd is a rangers legend that broke records in Scotland I don't get where u think garner is a better player than him 2.5 games a goal an a league that yes is better than the current spfl but don't forget that the guy hasn't been proven in Scotland against celtic or at European level.
