i Know i probably ruined everyone's happiness with this post "Has Naismith recovered 100% from his injury he had because that was the last i heard of him for a while he was a prolific goalscorer before it ed" ~ but could that effect his price and i was talking to someone today who said the following ~ Rangers are not allowed to buy player they can ever walk away terminating there contract.

Not allowed to buy or sell* why did half get cut off

toffee haz

Agree0 Disagree0

Release clause is 2mil

Agree0 Disagree0

They can't buy anyone over 18 but theres no restriction on selling other than the players had clause written in contract that allows them to leave for 25% of their value
That's the players who accepted the new terms of contract when they were trying to cut costs in February

Getting really confused here ed025, i take your word as you normally get it spot on but so too do ForthOfficial on twitter and there saying this;

Naismith to Everton 'deal' isn't true, please stop asking me about it, major interest from Everton but that's all for now

What's going on? {Ed025's Note - as far as i know mate, the deal is done..

Believable1 Unbelievable0

Major interest normally means done deal in my eyes anyway mate so I reckon it's signed,sealed,delivered...

Agree0 Disagree0

Thing about this deal is if Naismith wants to come Rangers can't stop him as its in his contract he can leave if they get 25% of his value so if we bid the 2 mil then its Naismiths decision not Rangers

ToffeeAl {Ed025's Note - thats how i see it as well al..

Hi everyone. Wizard of Osman here. Not been on for a while. Been in Canada so missed the last few games of the season. There is some decent coverage of prem football over there but it's on at stupid in the morning and it wasn't Everton so f**k that!
I think I'm just about up to date with everything now due to you guys and the extended highlights on Everton tv.
Am I right in thinking we're looking s**t hot at the moment? Some of the football we're playing looks really really tidy and unpredictable.
One thing... Anyone who wants Kalou or Owen... Stop it! They would only be there to get paid and we don't want that.
Naismith sounds like another great buy to me.. Fellaini has been outstanding up top but Naismith and Jelly? Can't argue with that!
One thing I was confused about was the Cahill sending off. Didn't look much in the replay. Should he have been? I believe Cabaye pushed over one of our ball boys but I can't find any footage of it. Is that getting brushed under the carpet or something? Not on!
Anyway, It's all looking very positive at the moment. Really excited about next season. I'm sensing good times to come.

Wizard of Osman

Yes cabaye did do that but Timmy C sorted the d*ck out :)

Hey guys, theoretically would you take £8 million and Ji-sung Park for Ross Barkley?
It would allow the much needed funds to help strengthen the squad and Ross didn't play much last season.

It does seem that there's an affiliation between Rangers/Everton and Celtic/Liverpool is this right?

Believable2 Unbelievable4

Nope, other way around if anything due to religion, but Everton and Rangers have done a bit of business in the past, yes

Agree0 Disagree0

Think you're wrong. The link has been there for years between Everton/Rangers and RS/Celtic due to religion. RS supporters were traditionally Catholics whereas Evertonians were Protestant. {Ed025's Note - i hate all that protestant/ catholic crap!. i dont care if he,s orthadox jew, or devout muslim!..so long as he wears the shirt with pride.

Agree0 Disagree0

"To hell with Liverpool and Rangers too" Thats the song which proves Everton side more with Celtic you obviously dont go to the games.

Agree0 Disagree0

Nothing to do with religion, that is an old chesnut, no matter what anyone says religion has never played a part in either teams, and remember St Domingoes was a methodist church

Agree0 Disagree0

Everton had row upon row of irish catholic priest in the stands years ago as fans, it was about religion then. but who cares like ed said. thats what as made the world such a nasty place live and let live i say no matter black white yellow green wgaf
Steblue 69 {Ed001's Note - you are right mate, Everton was very much a Catholic club, but it is ancient history. In recent years Celtic and Liverpool only became linked following the Hillsborough disaster and them being the first match following it. Obviously the link of YNWA has played a major part too. But historically Liverpool were closely linked with Rangers, until then. I have often wondered why that changed, I would have expected Rangers would have been the ones to get involved after Hillsborough, considering they suffered a similar disaster involving fan deaths at Ibrox.}

Rangers fan, if you have got the wee man you've got a smasher better than jelavic no doubt and will make you much stronger,gutted at losing him but wish him all the best good luck you's for,this season an hope you pump your Celtic loving neighbours.BLUNTRU72 LLRFC

27 May 2012 19:07:34
Right guys gonna say something here that I have stated before.

Kalou is poo, he is gash and not for us at all, he had a decent first season but since then I have not seen him have a decent game.

Some people think that because a player has played for Chelsea (Kalou, Lukaku) or Man U (Berbatov, Owen) then thay must be good, may have been once ormin the future but not now.

Lets stop this bollox about talking about gash players who would want 80 k per week and talk about players who would play for the shirt like Naismith, Pienaar would.

Rant finished, if we get Naismith like a number of reliable posters and Eds have stated and nab Pienaar and maybe a freebie like Rodallega it could be a big season for us Blues, as long as we sell none of our top players, this includes Rodwell and Jags

hey ed, how come all this naismith stuff isnt on any sources but everyone is convinced its done? i saw it on twitter and said he has moved to everton? whats happening? is sigurdason not coming? {Ed024's Note - Naismith done deal, sig on the backburner

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Because even if ed and others say it's a done deal, and unless they have a source (wich seems to not exist as there are not a single news about it at all as you notice), it's still only a rumour on twitter. Rodriguez was also supposed to be a done deal last week, and as for him, I'll believe it when I'll see it.

Sell:
Jagielka - 10mill?
Anachibe - 3 mill

and release funds for pienaar, naismith and a new rb...maybe sir whisky nose gives us a fringe player with sale of jags...we have heitinga and disitin, then duffy is a decent replacement

Sell ; Rodwell £15m
Buy ; pienaar £4m , Naismith £2m, and either lee from Bolton for £3m-£4m or hoilett for £5m-£6m .
If this happens then we will have a great team for next season and buy selling Rodwell ( who we don't need ) then we don't have to sell Baines or felli (that we need to keep)
.........................HOWARD........................
HIBBO.......JAGS...........JOHNNY.....BAINES

HOILETT....GIBSON......FELLAINI...PIENAAR
........................NAISMITH.......................
.........................JELAVIC.........................

Believable4 Unbelievable0

Dont sell Rodwell, stays fit all season and becomes a thirty million pound player, easy

Degsy

Agree0 Disagree0

Cmon nobody would ever pay £30m for Rodwell , he may be young and have potential but £30m would never happen even if he played every game of the season. I think he good but some people talk about him being world class because he plays for the team we support ( Everton )

Agree0 Disagree0

He is top class if he stays fit
Joe EFC

Agree0 Disagree0

I'm a blue but don't realy see what everyone else sees in him when I watch him play (ands that's every game) I just think he's average and think getting at least £20m for him would be a world class offer.... Can you explain to me why you think he is so good when he's fit?? Because I don't see anything in him :( {Ed025's Note - the guy is going to be world class mate...we are talking about a guy who everyone rates very highly!..this kid will set the world on fire..

Just stuck 20 on that at 25-1 plus put even more on top 6 at 7-1 - the naismith signing is very good - we're a couple of players away from a cracking team - let's hope we can keep the vultures away

Believable1 Unbelievable0

Oh I'll take your word, hope you're right Naismith would be a decent signing.

Agree0 Disagree0

As a scouser and blue boy living in Edinburgh I can tell you Naismith is the a fantastic player , and all of my rangers pals are gutted at the prospect of him

Ed.. how do you know about this Naismith deal? will it be announced soon? and any scottish fans on here.. is he any good? {Ed024's Note - apparently it will be announced in the next week, he is top quality and will be another great bargain moyes signing

Believable0 Unbelievable0

I posted on the rangers site a few weeks ago asking if he's any good, they all reckon he is just as good as jelavic! so he must be pretty decent like

ed just wondering if we had 2mill why hasn't it gone on pienaar is the pienaar deal done ?? {Ed024's Note - Maybe moyes is confident of getting both deals done, there is no doubt naismith is a quality signing

Believable0 Unbelievable0

27 May 2012 14:23:34
Can't wait to see Naismith in an Everton jersey. I looked at a video of the nine goals he scored before he got injured and he has got brilliant movement. Most of his goals have come from his movement off the ball, and at £2 million, he already looks like a bargain.
To be honest, even with his injury problem, £2 million is not a huge risk.

Also, completly unrelated, but can ye lads think of a name for me with the same ring to it as "Angerfist"? I've posted this on the talk music site, but people rarely seem to go on to that site, so if ye can help me thanks.

Believable1 Unbelievable0

What a good signing, he was rated better than jelavic in scotland and he works so well with jelavic, another inspired moyes signing. Do you rate him ed025??

Honestly not being biased here one bit, but after watching England last night HOW THE HELL is Jagielka not in the 23 man squad!??
Him and Lescott were England's best players and in the last 10 England games Jagielka and Lescott have played together 4 times............ 4 clean sheets and one of them games was against Spain.
Jags on standby!! Unbelievable!
Also and i know this sounds like im just sating this coz im a blue, but Downing in the 23 and Adam Johnson on standby? Johnson came on last night and did more than Downing has done all season!
Crazy selection's from Woy

Did you see the piece on Moyes in the Star today - he says that traditionally the everton and liverpool managers have a quiet meet up meal or whatever - for a chat - he says he did it with houlier when he arrived and also had a couple of nice evenings with Hodgson but "one or two others weren't quiet as accepting" despite it being considered a tradition.

That obviously means rafa and kenny weren't so friendly.

Believable3 Unbelievable0

Moyes is really really good friends with Houllier, so much so, that Moyes signed Gueye on the recommendation of Houllier.

Doesn't surprise, Cahill is really close with a couple of the s**te players, remember him and Andy Carroll, and a couple others, going to a CL match in Spain.

Agree0 Disagree0

27 May 2012 12:03:09
I'm probably just being an excited blue but Naismith looke class on the YouTube videos, hope he's still as good after his injury, there's a class goal on there that jelly set up aswell! Coyb!

Believable1 Unbelievable1

27 May 2012 11:22:00
To be honest we don't need to sign many players Pienaar and Naismith would do nicely
but we need to sort out the right midfield i mean if rodwell is fit he is always good but we are linked with Lee Chung-Yong that could come from the sale of yobo and maybe anichebe.

Ireland manager not even going to try spell his name .However he said D.Gibson played his best game in 3 years for Ireland yesterday and that is down to Moyes and Everton when we first signed him i wasnt impressed but he really came on strong Moyes knew there was something there and he has being a fab signing.Now i hear we are on the verge of signing Naismith i dont know this player cause no disrespect i dont watch Scottish football that much but i hear him and the jellyman play well together and we got him at a bargain so i wont complain alot of people really rate him so i will look forward to seeing him play For Everton.Now lets get peanuts deal sorted and maybe Donavan and i think were in for a cracking season next year getting excited now already keep up the good work in the transfer market Kenwright.

Ha Naismith recovered 100% from his injury he had because that was the last i heard of him for a while he was a prolific goalscorer before it ed?

toffee haz {Ed001's Note - he is still not fully recovered, but Rangers need to offload him now, due to his wages, so will take a cut price deal, rather than have to find 18.5k a week in the next few weeks.}

Ed why have I not seen this anywhere else and well will it be confirmed? Very excited now! Do you think Sigurdarson was a smokescreen? {Ed025's Note - very soon i would imagine..

Agree0 Disagree0

If true good bit of business by Moyes once again. 2mil for a lad, who, although has had a few injuries, is quality, and fills a position that we desperately lack, not to mention, Jelavic seems to rate him and have a close friendship.

Hopefully, there is truth in this rumour, because he would be a good addition, Rangers fans seem to rate Naismith higher than Jelavic.

But we need to get Pienaar SIGNED!

Agree0 Disagree0

Thanks Ed,
This has made me a very happy blue, I hear Naismith is very good. I can't wait for next season!
Bobcat {Ed001's Note - he was Scotland's best player before his injury, that is why Jelavic has been practically begging Moyes to buy him.}

Yes Yes Yes jelavic and naismith upfront. Gonna destroy the prem next season, all we need to do is sign pienaar and europe here we come.
What a great start to the summer. Distin signs a new contract, we sign an established forward for a steal at 2million and for once were doing our business early. Hope fully we dont have to sell anyone.
