Jelaviction

The Mail is reporting that we are bidding for Jelavic. Trouble is, Rangers haven't received a bid and the figure being quoted comes nowhere near the Scottish club's valuation. So, that sounds like another made up story then!

We have given up on Rhodes and this latest deal looks likely to end up as a dead end too. So where will we turn to next? Piquionne or Carew in all probability!

    There's a week or so to go in the transfer window, and something could happen, but we may well have to manage with what we've got and rebuild in the summer for whichever division we're in next season. We should have enough. Taylor will return soon and with the extra width and goal threat he brings, we may see improvements elsewhere. Other players are still coming back from long absences, and should improve. I think we're going to be there or thereabouts. If you'd have offered me a play off place at the beginning of the season, I'd have taken it. Now we're stressing about automatic promotion. Surely, a good sign??

    So difficult to tell what really happens behind closed doors - we nevery truly know if we pushed hard for players and failed, or if we sat pat. I hope we are not standing pat, and that this afternoon's reports on talks with Rangers still ongoing are accurate. We need a striker who can find the net, an attacking midfielder who can create (Taylor's return is good but insufficient in this area) and one more central defender. If we aren't working on all three bad on us. But I could care less about the timing of announcements, so long as the job is done by the thirty-first.
