As the time is ticking down i am starting to seriously doubt that we will sign a striker before it shuts. What do you guys think?

Dont think we will bring anyone in. Cant really spend money that isnt there just now. Like any other business that is in lots of debt and has a pending tax case the first thing that the business should do with any money coming is put aside to make sure the bills can be paid.

But would love to bring in a new stiker, not in place of Jela though but to play upside him!

I think the most likely outcome is Jela going and we bright someone in for around the 1.5m mark and another on loan.

That said, it depends on what Ally thinks about Mervan. He might see him as a regular first teamer who will play upfront a lot and negate the need to bring in two more strikers should we sell Jelavic.

In an ideal world we'd get heavy reinforcements upfront as we are so short but if the Estonian lad is brought in then that is another wage. Ally may decide Mervan and another striker be it as a permanent move or loan would be enough. If that were to be the case, the other striker better be bloody good, at least at this level.

West Ham have offered £7m for Rangers striker Nikica Jelavic, BBC Scotland has learned.

The English Championship leaders have been in negotiations with the Ibrox club for more than a week.

Rangers though, believe the 26-year-old is worth more and could hold out in the hope of an improved bid from elsewhere before the transfer closes next week.

Manager Ally McCoist wants any deal concluded quickly so that he has time to find a replacement.

McCoist has already described a reported £6m bid from the Hammers for the Croatian international as "not nearly enough" and says no formal bid has been received.

However, BBC Scotland understands that West Ham have come forward with an offer for Jelavic. Liverpool and Fulham have also shown interest in the player.

Jelavic, who has scored 30 goals for Rangers, made the switch to Glasgow from Rapid Vienna in 2010 and helped deliver the title under Walter Smith last season.

Rangers have already concluded business this month with the arrival of Swedish midfielder Mervan Celik from Gais of Gothenburg.

They ended their interest in St Johnstone striker Francisco Sandaza after he turned down the chance to sign a pre-contract agreement.
