There appears to be no limit to the Google searches that the Daily Record will carry out to come up with good news stories for their army of readers.
All week they’ve been trailing updates on Ange Postecoglou’s move to Leeds United while skipping around news that their favourite club required a £1m share issue to be able to meet January payroll.
Today’s uplifting story comes from a website called Transfer Room which has added £10m to the value of Micky Beale’s squad on the back of signing Todd Cantwell and Nicolas Raskin. Presumably Charlie McCann’s undisclosed fee has been deducted from the squad value.
Transfer Room is so obscure and irrelevant that their Twitter account has less than 3,000 followers.
Earlier this week the Record was reporting that Alfredo Morelos had turned down a ‘bumper offer’ to join a Turkish club that no one at the Record had heard of a week ago, the chunky striker can now leave for free in the summer.

Is that why half the squad can leave for nothing after the next 13 league games?

Ibrox PR message boy Gavin Berry delivering make believe feel good nonsense for the orcs
Even posted it a second time , around the same time they had to through gritted teeth report about Celtics profits this evening
Desperate stuff
I’d like to know who the hell gave Gavin Berry the go ahead to print this pathetic piece of piffle ? Which boss in his/her right mind would consider this pretentious load of bollocks ,as an entertaining and readable story that a reader would enjoy ? I think that the Record chiefs know that their time is almost up and do not care if the rag prints truth or fake news any more , as it’s a case of meeting the deadline with all kinds of gibberish drivel !
Deadline Gibberish DeidCo, has a certain ring to it.
Reality now swamping the relics of a discredited past and this
is their answer. Doing stupid, stupid things over and over again and
expecting a different outcome.
I usually don’t like the thought of people, any ‘Peepul’ losing their jobs,
however, in the case of the SMSM it can’t come quick enough.
They really are a disgrace. To their Profession, to their Country, to their fellow country men and women.
To their friends and families and ultimately to themselves .
The least of them are just cowards, lickspittles and sycophants.
The worst are racist and bigoted supporters of a cruel remnant of a bygone age.
I have no sympathy for them.
They’ll hopefully get all they deserve.
