You've maybe not seen Roberts and Forrest this season. They're both playing at a higher standard than McKay.

How the fek would you know
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Not sure where to start with this one Duke!

How about the fact the McKay has only had one or two decent performances all season. Then add the fact the Forrest is Celtic's best player.

That kind of thing.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No idea why you are telling me this?

Or why you had to work out where to start
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Wow. I didn't expect that kind of response from you.

Transfer fees rarely reflect any logic

Only yesterday folk on here were saying a 3rd tier guy in England went for 11mill

This meant a 1st tier guy in Scotland was worth 20 mill +

And maybe it does...who knows

Now we are told that a player in tier 1 Scotland with international caps cant be worth 5 mill

And maybe he cant be....who knows.

But Celtic fans know everything about Rangers players.....

Duke you've been telling us for years that Forrest is Celtic's best player. You've been telling us that McKay has been poor this season.

A Celtic supporter comes up with a similar opinion and you challenge it.

A pash poor WUM honestly.

Glad I'm away oot

Enjoy your evening.

How the fek would you know
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Because I have a season ticket and go to home games. On top of that, I watch games on television as they are broadcast regularly. All that helps to form an opinion.


----------------------------------------------------------------------
aye right

If you did any of that you wouldn't sound like a 4 year old girl repeating what her daddy told her.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Soooooo-you're saying I don't have a season ticket, and I also don't have a television.

You've said all season McKay has been poor-even said it in this thread. It's alright for you to say it, just don't like it when a Celtic fan points it out??

Logical.

Whether you rate the boy or not it is ignorant to say he has only had two good games this season when you don't watch him every week.

As I said above he is not a £5m player but based on add ons and potential worth it is not unrealistic to suggest Rangers could sell him for that. Comparisons to Fleck and McLeod are irrelevant as Fleck left under freedom of contract and McLeod was sold for around £500k when we were a Championship club and desperate for cash. He hasn't disappeared off the radar, he is 21 and playing at a higher standard than the Scottish Premiership albeit he is injured just now.

Neither McLeod nor Fleck have been capped for Scotland, neither were playing week in week out for a team second top of the top flight and neither had 100 first team games behind them in front of 50,000 fans every other week. An adequate comparison is Danny Wilson who left Rangers for add ons up to £5m and even he hadn't played the level of games to the standard McKay had. A team would be buying potential and £3m - £5m is not unreasonable for someone of that level of potential.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I didn't say he's only had 2 good games this season. Your own fans have been on here and on phone ins saying he's been poor this season and needed dropped. I've seen him play, and there's a talent there, but this season he's been pretty ineffectual, to the point where he was being left out the team.

My comparison to the other players were not about the fee that was paid for them-it's about how they've fared since they left. Fleck has done nothing of note, and Macleod has been hampered with injuries.

Wilson is another-left because he was going to be the next Davie Weir-let go because he was found out.

The point I was making is that players that have came through your ranks and are lauded as the next big thing have generally flopped after they've left.

Duke-I've had a season ticket since season 94-95 when we were at hampden and have had the same seat since the north stand was built.

Pretty petty thing to bring up. But whatever floats your boat. Certainly doesn't affect my ability to give an opinion.

McKay has been guff this season up until the OF game.

Completely anonymous and always looked to get rid of the ball instead of taking his man on.

Who knows, that performance might help him restore his confidence and kick on.

Can't say that. You're a Smeltic fan.

Only the bear that is truly bereft of self awareness can offer such an opinion.

posted on 7/1/17

So, after posting this article yesterday it's clear that bears on here disagree with me - fair enough.

but structurally what makes you think Rangers can compete? and Why doe's the manager still give you confidence?

I'm sick of the i know better than you shoitte that's all to often displayed on here.

why can't people respect another man's football opinion? without taking abuse?

Yes things have progressed under King and Co's leadership but we are a long way away from being the finished article off the field of play and until such times we have our house in order due to legacy of ridiculous governance i don't see how we can improve at the speed the Rangers fans demand.

No one thus far as really given a valid answer on why i'm wrong?

1) i do think McKay is a £5M player and certainly think £7M is a fee of fair value given his youth and potential and within the British market why can't Rangers ask for such a fee if the opportunity rises?

2) All season long we have been mostly inconsistent by the performances on offer and for every high of a brilliant win over an Aberdeen side there has been an accompanying low when Ross County nicked a point, Hamilton stole a draw, or Celtic walked away with a win and comfortably.

Player recruitment, player form, player rotation and the vulnerabilities of the 433 due to not having the correct player and taking risks on the park were we really aught not to, have made this season a puzzling one.

3) and yes injuries our training facility will look more like a hospital ward and Toral expected to arrive next week - a young man not far from injury himself, what are we doing? really, Warburton and McParland are at it imo

The pressure is on lads whether you choose to except it or not.

You need to be careful mate...if you don't toe the party line your fellow travellers will be calling you worse things than a Celtic fan.

Your Barrie McKay claim is just nonsense.
So confident am I of this that if he gets transferred in the next 12 months for more than £2m, I will give £100 to charity for every million over 2. So if he goes for £7m, I will donate £500. I'll give it to yorkhill as it seems to be the favoured charity on here. can't say any fairer than that.

Travellers? Pathetic.

Dude stick yer money were the sun don't shine.

Tried to stimulate debate, results in trash talk and insult.

What a site.

posted on 7/1/17

I didn't read it as trash talk.. I thought he was just trying to hammer home his point that he didn't think McKay would go for anything over £2m.

Looking at his profile he's been undercover for some time then.

With long periods of silence between times.
