Legend "We have had a lot of interest and we've not encouraged that interest," Lawwell said of striker Gary Hooper. "Last night, we got a £29m offer for Hooper, from an unknown agent, from an unknown club, from another universe." http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/14755914.stm?
Legend..... Your having a laugh!!!! The guy is a first class fud! He is the Chief executive of a club that can't win the league. 3 years now Rangers have beat us.... this idiot goes every transfer window looking to see what Rangers do. The mans a joke, he should give up the football board room game, and take his snide jokes onto the Comedy circuit. The bloke has a fooking cheek! Rant over!
In all honesty just reeks of jealousy, and why does he see it fit to comment on the Jelavic saga at all?
It's funny, but he has a ****in nerve, we did **** all this window and he would have bit at 6m for any of our players Still funny
Let the success do the talking fat Ped. Reeks of petty jealousy It was like that muppet Reid with the "holly willies" comment. Hey if silly remarks us a good substitute for trophies then you've won a watch!
****ing hell its just a joke. Lawwell has done a great job at the club. Every **** had their tongue up his ringpiece when we had 3iar at all the signings he helped get in.Without him would we have got Boruc, Naka, Ki, Kayal?Would we have made as much money on transfer fees received for Maloney £1m 6 months of contract left, Caldwell the same. Arsenal approached him about 5 years ago, if he'd have left we'd be in a far worse place than we are now. We all laugh about tapping into Asia, tours of Australia & the US but without that sort of forward thinking we'd be in the **** financially. As for spending millions every transfer window......well look at Rangers & how they are still paying for years of paying over the odds. We have debt of approx a million right now based on recent figures and transfers done since meaning if we can get rid of Hoovield, Murphy, Samaras, O'Dea, Juarez, Thompson & Rasmussen we have funds to reinvest come January.
Bhoy from Brum. We have strengthened in exactly 0 positions from the team that were second last season. Lawell has bigger priorities than digging at Rangers. it's classless from a chief executive. But ok for internet forums!
My mate at work (a Liverpool supporter, yes I live in England) said to me yesterday that he heard that Liverpool tried to buy Jelavic at the last minute. Could that be the £9 million bid ? As for Liewell, well he's just went and made an arse of himself again. Maybe he should try and secure some "blue chip" signings for Celtic and it might help them win the league. Celtic are a classless club with a classless manager and a classless Chief Executive. They were all made for each other.
Why do people go so OTT about things? Just because it's Celtic and Rangers it gets blown out of all proportion. It was just a joke.
Jokes are fine, it was one of your own who initially brought up that Lawell should be more concerned with winning the league, rather than making 'jokes'. For Mick to call Lawell a legend when he's overseen the skintest Rangers side in history win 3 titles on the trot shows the mentality of some of the Celtic family. Anyway, no one at Rangers said that someone had bid £9m, it was on SSN and it came from a 'source' from the agent. Personally, I couldn't give a ****, it's not even important.
When it comes out that there was actually a bid, old pistol Pete will be feeling like even more of a fanny. Seems like the tramps from the east are ****ing themselves yet again.
