‘Go and sign him’ – Halliday tells Rangers and Celtic to agree deal for Dundee star
In an admission that there is elitism
when it comes to signing Scottish
players, Andy Halliday has encouraged
Rangers and Celtic to go get Dundee gem
Lyall Cameron. Reports indicate that the
Light Blues were never close to a deal to
sign the 21-year-old on transfer deadline
day, despite rumors that surfaced late in
the summer transfer season [Scott Burns, 30 August].
In recent years, the Gers have shown a
reluctance to sign players from other
Premiership teams. Clyde 1 analyst
Halliday has pushed the Light Blues to
give Cameron a chance, stating that he
would only cost under £1 million. He
stated, “See [Luke] McCowan signing for
Rangers or Celtic from Dundee, for that’s
a no-brainer signing,” on the Open Goal
YouTube channel on October 8, at
1:40:30. Lyall Cameron is the next,
something that Dundee supporters will
not appreciate. Proceed to sign him;
what will his cost be? Not quite a million pounds.
“I’m not talking about snobbery from
Hibs. I’m talking about Rangers and Celtic.”
Si Ferry replied: “Do you think Lyall
Cameron could go and play for Rangers and Celtic?”
Halliday responded: “I’m not saying this
is the player that’s going to come in and
make the immediate impact for you, but
when I look at the squad players that
Rangers and Celtic have signed over the
years and spent good dough on, surely go and sign these boys.”
Will Lyall Cameron exit Dundee amid Rangers transfer speculation?
So much has been made about the Gers’
reluctance to deal with other
Premiership clubs in recent transfer
windows and it does really feel like they
are missing out on some incredibly exciting players.
While the signing of Connor Barron this
summer was a step in the right
direction, most supporters would prefer
to see the Light Blues break the bank for
a Lennon Miller or Lewis Ferguson
instead of taking a punt on a player with
no experience in the division.
