The Daily Record are fully on board and driving the bus for James Tavernier’s move to join Al Ettifaq.

The Glasgow based publisher picked up on a stray report from a Saudi website alleging interest from Steven Gerrard on the penalty taking expert and off they went.

Keith Jackson added Connor Goldson to the mix with one nut case phoning up Radio Clyde to discuss a £20m double deal. Mission accomplished for the spinners.

The Record are putting their heart and soul into the campaign, similar to the Butland for England bandwagon with Cammy Bell the latest expert recruited to the campaign.

Bell famously played his last match for the Ibrox Tribute Act when he chucked a cross from a Motherwell player into his own net in the 2015 Premiership play-off.

Stuart McCall was ditched, the Warburton Revolution launched with Tavpen joining from Wigan for a fee of £200,000.

Just as he was a mediocre goalkeeper, Bell is a mediocre pundit spinning good new for Ibrox fans, listening to him on Super Scoreboard tonight the Daily Record reports Bell saying:

He is happy at Rangers – I know that. He is very happy at Rangers. I think he has seen his career finishing at Rangers – certainly at one point. Whether he still does I am unsure, but these offers do come in. It will be up to the club rather than the player.

At the end of the day he has two years left, and they will have to offer enough that Rangers see it as a good deal for them. Yes, he is 32 and they are not going to get £10million for him.

I would think a value of £3-£4million is what they would mark him at. It is going to be up to Rangers – and then if they accept you would have to say the money on offer over there could be life-changing. It might be an offer that he considers and wants to go and see a different part of the world, but I know he is happy at Rangers.

Any interest in Tavpen is likely to come if the Tribute Act are trying to shift him from their wage bill.

Even in the ‘mega bucks’ Saudi Pro League they won’t be throwing a transfer fee in on top of decent wages for a full-back that struggles to defend but enjoys the generosity of Scottish referees proving a penalty kick every two matches.

    Listen to a radio show and then type an article about what they just heard

    No wonder that rag is going down the sh*tter .

    Cammy Bell is the absolute proof that it doesn’t matter how sh*te a pundit you are , have zero personality , as long as you’re an ex hun that’s all you need to get media work

  • Captain Swing says:

    He must mean Zimbabwe Dollars. He sure ain’t worth Dembele Dollars! Nobody can really believe there’s some kind of frenzy to sign him? Away from iBrox he reverts to what he was – a £200,000 player from the lower leagues.
