    Do potential investors always choose to invest on the back of transfer gossip?

    Whilst I don't believe that Rangers made up the bid, of course rumours affect investment. Just like any other business that you can invest in. Share prices etc are all based around rumours. It's kind of what half the worlds Stock markets are based on

    Rangers can also use it an negotiation tactics if he does keep scoring and they get bids in the summer. A starting price has now been firmly set for them to go to the table with.

    These answers are too sensible, go away.

    The real answer is Rangers are skint so in order to drum up interest in their ****e players they make up bids that they couldn't possibly afford to turn down if they were real.

    For the same reason they leaked a story about Barrie Mackay being a £6m target for RB Leipzig I assume.

    The "feelgood factor", and to diminish a positive Celtic transfer story. Commonly known as "Spin".

    Dundee boss Neil McCann has hit out at Celtic over leaving it till the last minute of the transfer window to buy Jack Hendry. The 22-year-old centre-back joined the Scottish champions late on Wednesday night for a fee which beat the Dens Park record of £1.2million paid by the Parkhead club for keeper Robert Douglas in 2000.

    McCann described Hendry as a "good fit" for Celtic , but insisted he was left with no time to bring in a suitable replacement - although he has now signed Angolan international Genseric Kusunga. Ahead of the home Ladbrokes Premiership clash with bottom side Ross County on Saturday, he said: "I was never ignorant to the fact that, if you are doing well and players are playing well, then big clubs come calling"

    "They did. The disappointing thing for me was how late in the day Celtic left it to decide to get their business done."It left me with no time whatsoever to get any business done myself."I was desperate to keep Jack, but I was mindful that should Celtic come in with the right offer that the club can't turn down, I have to have someone who can step in and bolster the squad.

    "I wasn't allowed to do that because I can't sign a player at one minute to 12 because it takes a bit of times to go through and by that time these players may have other options. 2 FEB 2018


    Aye, very good Neil.

    It's Friday night and I'm having a bevvy so i have zero interest in getting involved in one of your trademark bickerfest. Work out the point he is trying to make and you will find your answer.

    Is a manager not quite right to feel disappointed by losing arguably his best player right at the last minute of the window?

    Being disappointed is not the same as blaming Celtic for any delay in tying the deal up. It's not as if Celtic only approached Dundee on the 31st and then twisted their arms.

    Celtic may well have approached Dundee much earlier in the window, but it took them til the last minute to meet the clubs valuation of the player, which has left the manager frustrated.

    If Celtic had sold Dembele right at the last minute, knowing Griffiths is out injured, and didn't get time to replace him, would you be happy?
