So we've increased our bid for Bayo from £1.75m to £1.8m. A bit embarrassing really. I'm all for negotiating but to up our offer by £50k. If we really think this player will make a difference make a proper offer.

{Ed007's Note - I was told earlier this evening that there has been no second bid and that the figure being reported as the initial offer is "wildly inaccurate".}

Hopefully that's the case Ed. Do you reckon Bayo and Weah are the two strikers that BR is bringing in or will Weah be used as a winger?

{Ed007's Note - Knowing Rodgers it could be anywhere across the front.}

People need to stop reading the national press or Twitter.
Stick to Celtic sites like this.

What’s your thoughts on Defoe Ed?

{Ed007's Note - As I said on another thread - I've never seen the fuss about Defoe and have had many a debate with posters about him over the years, all he ever had was pace and at 36 that's long gone - his overall record of 242 goals in 638 games is a joke.
I'd have been seriously pi$$ed off if we had signed Defoe 6 years ago.}

So with the bid for Bayo inaccurate I hope that we might have bided higher than the 1.75/ 1.8m then am hopping then ED?

{Ed007's Note - That's how I took it.}

All about opinions, but Defoe would have been a brilliant signing 6 years ago.

I don't massively rate defoe but how is 242 goals in 638 games a joke? that's an average of about 1 in 2.6 games. Not bad considering he has played for some crap teams. Rooneys overall is 1 in 2.3 or something and he wasnt a bad player.

I dunno Ed, 6 years ago he might have been a decent signing.

Aye but Rooney was moved all over the park and very rarely played as an out and out striker.
Defoe ( who I did rate) played exclusively as an out and out striker.

Well rooney was just an example. Defoes goals per game is decent was my point as he did play for a few lesser teams therefore less chances.

What has his strike rate been say, in the last three years, just out of interest.

4 goals in 28 appearances for Bournemouth. 38 goals in 115 appearances since 2018. I wouldn't be too worried about him.

Defoe is a joke of a signing . No club in England would take him now . Fairly good 3 yrs ago, good 10 yrs ago.
Davis return is Rangers2012 buying a from the occupied 6.
If these deals do go through they won't benefit Rangers2012 on the playing pitch.
