Jelavic deal back on with work permit panel set to meet

[Guest]

It is being reported in several news sources this morning that a deal for Nikica Jelavic is back on the cards despite Martin Bain making a statement on Friday that negotiations had ended. The stories even go as far as suggesting that a tribunal will meet later this week to see if the Croatian international meets regulations to be eligble for a work permit, however it should be a formality.

great news.

i have confidence in this one,

[toolongawake 1,224]

fingers crossed

[Lee_RFC 6]

great news i would love to see jelavic at ibrox

[Bazza 21]

So up and down it's unreal.

[Jamie1807 146]

I'd love to see him here, but I think we should be going for a couple of wide men

[dpRFC1 3]

hopefully this time next week he will be a rangers player.

[Davie2909 21]

great news.

i have confidence in this one,

Good stuff but i do think that we will need to clear out some strikers if he moves here

[papaguy51 912]

Spend the £4m on some wingers.

[Craig Ward 12]

we need this guy more than any winger.

[martyboy2009 11]

I know what we will see then, jelavic and Beattie up front with kenny miller out wide!

[AW-WATP 112]

Heres hoping it goes through.

Will this empty our transfer budget though that we could be spending on wingers?

Good news, he could be a good signing but the money would probably be better sent elsewhere i.e wingers, would love to see him at Rangers though

[bluenose_72 198]

Spend the £4m on some wingers.

[chris_glasgow 2]

Do we really need another striker?

[Big Laff's Dodgy Barnett 20]

Martin Bain never said it was off, he said we have walked away from negotiations, leaving our offer there and it was down to Rapid & Jela to make their move

[papaguy51 912]

we need this guy more than any winger.

Did you watch the game yesterday?

I think people are too obsessed with being able to tell the office taig that we've spent £4m on a single player rather than actually looking at what this squad needs.

Naismith, Miller, Fleck, Lafferty, Beattie, Velicka and even Rory Loy are all capable of playing up front. Do we need another striker?

[Big Laff's Dodgy Barnett 20]

Do we really need another striker?

Walters' quote was something like "I would still like another striker"

[machine! 15]

200 pages here we go! Ffs did no work last week because of RM going crazy. Now we have Benalouane signing, Jelavic signing and some vodka head mafioso trying to buy the club. Looks like i'm not getting any work done this week also. I'm waiting for 'McGregor has 20 in bed romp with 19 Miss World candidates.'

To be honest mate i wouldn't bat an eyelid if that came out about shagger!

we should flog Velicka & loan out Rory Loy

[Jimfanciesthedude 25,092]

can this not be merged into the thread about him

the whole saga has become tiresome now

Are they really though?

Lafferty maybe. Davis isn't an out and out winger, I've never seen Loy play there, Fleck definitely isn't a winger, Naismith is shite out there, as is Miller.

[Jonnyboyrfc 296]

Jelavic is a better striker and just about every single other front man we have in the squad so yes, I really do want this to happen.

We do also desperately need wide men. Desperately.

Bain NEVER made a statement that it was dead - walter ALWAYS said it was alive. Only people to say bain said that was the ET - Rangers never once did!
