Well what did you guys think about Stephen Fletchers performance? This is another player John Park rates. what's it going to take to get him to feck?!
05 Sep 2015 07:08:51
I agree our scouting system needs an overhaul but to blame john park for the performance of a guy who has never been on Celtics books , well that's madness do you have a direct quote saying he rates fletcher personally or has he told you this face to face? If not I'm beginning to think he might be banging your missus on the side , it's the only reason I can think of for your irrational hatred of the guy . Why else would you be dragging him into a post about a Sunderland player who has never kicked a ball for Celtic?

Haha DN30 let it go! Fletcher doesn't even play for us and you're having a go. Its ridiculous and making you look very silly.

John Park is to blame for the millions lost on duds plain and simple.

Fab1 I don't know how much you know about football and scouting system at Celtic. John Park identifies signing targets and recommends them to Peter Lawwell. He personally endorsed Stephen Fletcher. Do you not know we tried to sign him on loan there?
HenriksTongue what a pointless post. Your embarrassing yourself once again

John Park is to blame for all the millions lost by the players who has come to Celtic and under performed . Nothing to do with the players themselves , letting themselves down , by deciding to live it up on their new increased wages .
John Park also deserves credit for the millions upon millions made on players brought into the club . Or do we credit these players for their hard work in improving themselves .
I think no one person should get all the credit and all the blame .

There was a write up on newsnow about the money spent on Celtic strikers signed in the last 10 years, How they've performed and the sell on value. Needless to say there was only a few who have served the club well and made a tidy profit the rest have been shocking. I can't see JP getting punted just like PL as he gets it right in the other areas. I just hope they get a scout dedicated to unearting decent strikers and leave JP to deal with other areas. And Deila should get the final say for who he wants up front as the most important player in his 4-2-3-1 formation is the man putting the ball in the net.

Old Bhoy what a lovely story 😴😴😴

come on guys, this is our policy there is no way we wudnt have snapped the hand off for Fletcher when at hibs.
Here is the facts. We buy for 2m approx. usually and hope to find a wee diamond or 2 in the process that we can sell for future profits. The diamonds we sell far outweigh any losses we incur buying the lesser players.
We are far in profit with these players despite the Pukkis Baldes etc, that's the gamble there is no way we can buy at that level and be profitable with every player.
WE HAVE NOT WASTED MILLIONS as this is the policy and the few will compensate for the many.
Look at DI Maria for eg how much did that cost Man Utd.
Even the premiership clubs down south with their vast wealth cannot compete with us on profit with player.

Yes Rayman , buying players is a bit of a lottery . Every club buy players who don't fit in . We usually pay less than £3m for the players who disappoint but in the TV rich EPL some of the clubs have spent £30 m and still haven't got a player capable of doing the job for them .

Di Maria is no dud its LVG's way of playing is so boring! He's started off okay for PSG! Look at Falcao too playing in a boring Man U side he looked like one of our dud strikers and no doubt he will bang them in at Chelsea

Who said Di Maria was a dud??
