aberdeen1970 Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 We need to bring a defender in anyway. Just means we need to bring someone in over the next couple of days. That way we have 2 fit centre backs if McKenna goes. And 3 if he's still here Link to comment
DandyWarhol Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 We have to be looking to sign up another defender asap, maybe a loan deal. Even before this we were really needing another one, especially given Devlin's ongoing injury troubles. Link to comment
TheRock Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 If he's put in a transfer request and it's been rejected, would the club make a statement confirming as such? I'm guessing not. I'm not sure I really believe it right now. Link to comment
Scotty_Toronto Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 IF true then file him alongside Jack. That's atrocious timing. If true, then despite the horrible timing, I still can't compare Jack going to Sevco on a free with McKenna going south and us receiving many times our previous record transfer. 1 1 Link to comment
Hewitt a the pies Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 If he's put in a transfer request and it's been rejected, would the club make a statement confirming as such? I'm guessing not. I'm not sure I really believe it right now.If true it's poor timing.DM has been intimating for a while now that he will more than lightly go in this window so you have to think he's already got a replacement lined up or at the very least a list of alternatives.

MightyDons Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 I'm not sure if this is true, but in the times of social media and piss poor journalism, everyone is all too keen to jump on the bandwagon. This could work out for the best if a fee of £7m-10m comes in. McKenna is good, but he isn't irreplaceable. Hopefully McInnes has a player or two ready to come and fill the void. Link to comment
Studebaker-90 Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 It is absolutely true. He has handed in a transfer request. I know this for a fact and knew about it this morning when I originally posted about it. 1 Link to comment
maryhilldon Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Could be as a result of Maguire to Man Utd, opens up Ajer to Leicester which could result in Mckenna to Tims....This was my first thought. No need for a transfer request though. Fuck knows. Link to comment

Hopefully McInnes has a player or two ready to come and fill the void.Unfortunately there is no chance of us getting £7 - £10 million for Mckenna. If we get a bid of £5m we would bite their hands off. Link to comment

I think DelMonte is meaning if he forces a move to Celtic. That is what I meant anyway when agreeing with him. Link to comment
herouali Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Will Steve Bruce go back in for him? Could he handle NUFC? Link to comment
minijc Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Got a feeling the club promised him a move if the right offer comes in to force him to sign a new deal when he did and now he's gotten restless. Link to comment
Ten Caat Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Being philosophical about it......just over 2 years ago he was on loan at Ayr and struggled to get a game for much of the time. Had a club come in with a £250k offer in August 2017 I think we would have gift wrapped him and posted him out first class. 2 years later, having been pretty much forced into playing him at first, he's now a first pick for Scotland. He signed a contract extension which would have made him one of the top 4 or 5 paid players at the club relatively recently so we do hold all the cards, unless there is indeed a release clause in that contract. Of course his agent would be acutely aware of the terms of such a release clause and at least we know for sure that if there is......it's higher than £3million (indeed higher than whatever QPR's 2nd bid came in at). The timing of the request suggests it is England that he wants to go to rather than Celtic.......if it had been to the dhimmery he wanted to go then there was no hurry to submit the request as there is 4 weeks left to go in the Scottish transfer window and having played for us in Europe would be ineligible to play for Celtic in Europe. Whatever results...the player and his agent come out looking like total cunts. Link to comment
Parklife Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 and having played for us in Europe would be ineligible to play for Celtic in Europe. That's not correct. Link to comment

That way we have 2 fit centre backs if McKenna goes. And 3 if he's still here yes but if mckenna goes we come desperate for a left footed left sided centre back who can play left full back if he stays we need more a right sided centre back who can cover at right full back Link to comment
Dynamo Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 If an EPL club want him sell him and get him loaned back for the season. Link to comment
Bamber Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Skysports reporting he handed the transfer request in on Saturdayyou would have thought he wouldnt have been bullied as much on sunday is that was the case - needed considine to show him how to handle the hearts player Link to comment
Guest milne_afc Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 It is absolutely true. He has handed in a transfer request. I know this for a fact and knew about it this morning when I originally posted about it.I'm sure the apologies will be forthcoming post-haste Link to comment
S2RDS Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 If an EPL club want him sell him and get him loaned back for the season. Nah, not up for that like. If he has handed in a request then he doesnt want to be here. Fuck some other club paying him 12k a week and he comes back here on a jolly for the season. 1 1 Link to comment
Dandyesque Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 So he has offers on the table, despite being under contract and AFC not accepting any bids? I believe this is known as tapping up and is not allowed. So probably a Glasgow team who can rely on the media and friendly agent 2 Link to comment
strachanmcgheegoal Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 If its as pre ordained as some make out you have to assume Derek has a centre half in the background surely to fuck. Shaughnessie? (fuck knows how to spell it) Link to comment
