Cant even remember him playing.Greg Taylor seems to have went from playing every week to not getting a look in, which is nice

His hair moved more than the rest of him.
He just does not look like a goalie.
Be interesting to see how he does if a ball is floated toward him and 4/5 big lads clatter into him at a corner.
When do they play Aberdoom again
They tell liesIn the summer Barkas was £6million according to the start of this video with the clip from the summer phone call
Around 49s into the same video when they splice in the updated, more recent call he's a £5million pound goalkeeper
Just yesterday the BBC reported he was £4.5mil.
By the end of the season they'll be reporting he was a free signing to spare their blushes in the transfer market.
Same with Greg Taylor I believe, transfer fee cut by a third once they realised he was pish. Suddenly a £3million pound signing became 2.
Seems that Seville calculator works in reverse!
Thanks. No loan fee for Laxalt then?
Really!He makes himself look really small somehow. He’s 6 ft 5 believe it or not.
Milan were just delighted to get him away.Thanks. No loan fee for Laxalt then?
It's baffling to me why their fans love Laxalt so much and think Taylor is poor. Anytime I've seen Taylor for Scotland, he's looked pretty good and done well. Taylor actually has a half decent cross on him and has more assists than Laxalt and Frimpong combined this season. Laxalt's has one assist this season and it was for Ross countys second goal at the weekend.Greg Taylor seems to have went from playing every week to not getting a look in, which is nice
I think we as Rangers fans should all unite and praise the absolutely wonderful job Nick Hammond has done, in taking the scum backwards and wasting millions and millions of pounds on utter shite.
Thanks to this absolute diddy, They tried to copy us and brought in this reject.
Another pay off that will be needed.
We are so far ahead in so many areas it's glorious.
Not being facetious. I don’t remember Kouassi at all. Only know Soro because I see his name on here all the time as an example of their inept transfer dealings.Some of the money they have wasted is laughable did they not spend £3m on that klimala guy and £3m on kouassi and he never kicked a ball for them ,dont know what they paid for soro and hes never played either
£9mil for an ill disciplined (tactically naive) guy with work rate and no end productWell, TM give you the info they have. It looks like Milan usually got 500k from italian clubs. Rumours are that if there's a buy-option included, Milan wanted a fixed 9m for the permanent deal. Rumours ...
Milan waived a loan fee for Benidorm Barbie for an assurance he plays both legs?Thanks. No loan fee for Laxalt then?
They discovered Taylor is 'not Celtc minded'.It's baffling to me why their fans love Laxalt so much and think Taylor is poor.

The best thing about it is, they are either stuck with him in the summer or they get an appointment in that doesn't have the time to scout and find targets.
The thing is though, they were still signing a decent player here and there back then. Who they'd move on for decent profit.its been going on for years
the likes of Pukki and Bangura coming in for £3m then being released
CL football saved them back then
it isn't there now
Theyd probably be better playing it like hockey and pulling the goalie for an extra outfield player.

Since Hammond came in their best signings have been Julien and Limpdong. Ones a 7 million pound shitebag (who's 28 before the end of the season) and the other is an athlete with no footballing brain. They haven't signed anyone who could make them any decent money since appointing Hammond.
In that same time frame we have spent 10-15 million less and brought in guys like Roofe, Kent and Aribo. Players who could all easily make 8 figure sales
Benidorm Barbie, that’s hilariousMilan waived a loan fee for Benidorm Barbie for an assurance he plays both legs?
Pretty sure this 2 wins out of 10 record coincides exactly with him playing? So they concede almost 2.5 goals a game since he playedHas Laxalt won a game with them since signing?
Can’t read this, don’t need to. Still hilariousCeltic No 1 Vasilis Barkas – the goalkeeper who prefers playing at left-back
Celtic's £5m signing has had a quiet start to his Celtic career but is gradually proving his worth to Neil Lennon's sidetheathletic.co.uk
Salford CityWhere did the St Mirren keeper we were linked with end up? I thought he was cert to go to one of the OF teams
Salford City
He’ll be on good money there, I would happily have taken him as backup but I did not think we’d sign a keeper of Jon McLaughlin’s calibre in his place! We definitely got the better keeperFFS and many (including himself) seemed to think he was a cert to come here.
They had two super agents the other was Derek Trotter.You've got to salute Arthur Daley the football agent who sold this guy to Celtic.

Is me Julie one of the guys in his last 18 month tooBefore you even talk about managers, recruitment of the correct personnel is the most important ingredient for success. Since Rogers left, they have really went backwards. The 'model' of selling players after a few years we hear so much about demands a successful, winning team. Almost instantly, Celtic's assets are unsellable. Before the season, Ajer, Edouard and Julian were being touted as 20 million pound players. Now... I genuinely don't think you'd get 15 million combined. They have a much higher cost base than us, no real sellable assets and with reported unrest in the camp, a need to rebuild. One thing though... We absolutely MUST win the league this year.

Seem to recall this being a long running saga, when they had the likes of Edson Braffhied, some Moroccan sounding guy, vidar riseth, Stephan Mahe.They signing Bongoli summer of 2019 for £3m
realise he is utterly pish
splash out £2.2m on Taylor in the same window - £5.2m on left backs
this summer they go out and spend (guessing £1m) to loan Laxalt with an option to buy reportedly in place
now up at £6.2m + high wages for three dud LBs
utter madness

They finally get a decent one and punt him after 5 minutes. Hilarious stuff.

The cowards in the press are equally complicit in perpetuating these lies.I’ve noticed the Ajeti and Turnbull fees are starting to be reported as lower than they initially were.
You have to hand it to Hammond. He’s clearly just in it for the holidays.They've spent a fortune in recent years on guys that have barely played for them. You do have to laugh at how quickly the inflated fees, deflate after a few months of poor performances. Until you find out they pay half of what was reported at the time.
Apparently Hammond scouted Barkas for over a year. Which just makes it even more funny. You do get the sense that Hammond is just there and basically does whatever Lawwell tells him to do, without being allowed to deviate much from it.
I read a twitter post from one of them, that quite boldly claimed that it was bringing in Brendan Rodgers as manager that murdered their scout, buy cheap and sell big model. I can see what they mean, Rodgers signed some utter shite during his stint. The obvious signings did well but the lesser known ones either didn't feature much or quickly disappeared out on loan never to be seen again.
I'm genuinely still pretty staggered at how badly they've let things slide. They should be light years ahead of us when it comes to this stuff. We've been shopping in different markets for the best part of the past decade. They really don't have an excuse other than arrogance and negligence.
