12 hours left and no news of any kind looks like a quiet one for us or a mad rush job.
31 Aug 2016 12:20:54
Its looking like no one mally they would have been seen at the airport or Ross Hall just the usual ripping off of the fans they'll be the usual half hearted attempt of a loan of some unknown dud at ten to twelve.
31 Aug 2016 12:42:34
How can you's say that there is 11 hours left to get deals done you can fly to Holland and back twice in that time. Have a bit of faith. Did Robbie Keane not sign around 10pm.
31 Aug 2016 12:53:42
jamesbhoy have you forgot about the other signing? what about trying to b positive eh its been the best window in years and your crying over what? we have enuf to get us to christmas give us a break hh.
31 Aug 2016 13:09:19
Jamie agree with u but you'd have thought with the money in against the outlay a quality CM wouldn't have broke the bank, and I am thinking more to do with Europe rather than needed for domestic game but u never know.
31 Aug 2016 13:12:47
No Robbie Keane was announced as on his way to Glasgow at 5pm i remember the sickened look on his face he signed later right enough who wants someone from Holland? what if their coming from South America or Australia? we'd be f***** i can say it stan because it happens year in year out and will continue to do so until we get new owners with REAL AMBITION.
31 Aug 2016 13:15:39
You seem too negative jamesbhoy 67 we've signed 5 players all of which could start a lot of games this season. I'm sure we would all love to see a couple more big transfers come in but it can't be easy as a player we value at 3 million to us is going to epl for 10 million this week. If we go through every transfer window improving the starting eleven surely it can't be all bad as previous transfer windows we've only added to the squad not improved it.
31 Aug 2016 13:23:26
Best window ever? two 35 year olds a 19 year old untested striker and a right back who hasn't played for two years and a guy who couldn't get a game for Aston Villa we are Celtic not Burton Albion their sitting on a fortune and won't spend money on real top quality players this clown Lawwell has been conning the fans for years.
31 Aug 2016 13:56:55
James i didn't say anyone from Holland my point was there is plenty time left to get deals done, As for Holland went to quite a few games there last season as i work there and there is plenty talent there. I have said plenty over the years about the people running our club but if the window closed right now i'd he happy with our signings because every one of them has walked into the first 11 and that's all i want. Buying someone for £8m doesn't make them a better player. Have a seat and relax and think about what might happen reather than what won't happen and you might find yourself in a more positive frame of mind about the rest of the day.

Agree with you 100% Jamesbhoy67 so much so that I'm struggling to actually believe there won't be at least one other and possibly two signings and had hoped one of them would be one big enough to make the manky mob want an early night tonight. I think your summary is spot on relative to the level of investment made through season tickets [£30M]and champions league [£30M]. A 35 year old centre half who so far has shown that he can read a game and is an organiser but isn't Paul Elliot. A 19 year old laddie who I think will come good but as you say at present is very much untested. A right back who looks very promising but in the final analysis to quote you hasn't played for two years. We have a great opportunity to invest to at least make us [me] want to buy a Champions League package and to sicken the forces of darkness and evil before the seasons even into September.
31 Aug 2016 14:00:55
Calm down jamesbhoy lol HH.
31 Aug 2016 14:01:34
Its a transitional year.
Need to trim a lot of dead wood out of the team, restructure the wages - but also being celtic - expected to win everything.
Players brought in / sold so far have seriously improved the team.
Sinclair and Toure excellent buys during this changeover.
Exceeded expectations by getting to group stages to - a very very tough group tho - as I suggested before - why spend now - during the frenzy and a difficult group to navigate. We should have our best players in peak condition for the important league games (before and after CL games) , would rather take 3 points a game off Hearts, Aberdeen and What are they called this week and kill ourselves getting no points off Barca
Keep back £25m, buy in January - sort out some OOC Free transfer players - win the league, qualify for next years CL - with £55 to spend on players and hopefully an easier draw to navigate.
31 Aug 2016 14:15:50
Who says i'm not relaxed just because i'm saying factual stuff about an inept board? And who mentioned paying 8m for a player? anytime people tell the truth on here the panty wetters rush around to the local shop for their tena ladies.
31 Aug 2016 14:26:52
Right forget the £8m players James what do you actually want from the transfer window? You don't want old experienced players or youth players so go on tell us who you want signed or who we should have signed seen as the transfer window seems to have already closed in your mind. I take it you aren't enjoying watching the team at the moment and the signings we have made haven't improved us whatsoever?
31 Aug 2016 14:38:02
Think it might be too late for jamesbhoy67 to rush to his local shop. We need a balance of players in and out there's no point in signing players who don't really want to come (scepovic jozo) or aren't better than what we have. If we spend money on players who don't want to come are they going to make us better? If we have to put money away till Christmas or next summer then as long as we get another couple of players for first team great. It's going to take more than one transfer window to get a big improvement but most people can see an improvement so far. Most people slate the epl and sky for their money yet expect us to go mad spending on the last day. Most clubs outside the Big 4 nations aren't spending big today they have to wait for value unlike England who can spend 10/ 15 million on Unknown players.

Well said Jim.
31 Aug 2016 17:31:54
Well said jim!
Jamesbhoy get a hold of yourself, you don't know if there's anyone on their way, if there's deals in place, just because it hasn't been reported on the news yet doesn't mean there's nothing in the pipeline.
Supporters like you boil my blood, toure might be 35 but he's a great signing, it's been a good window SO far, your a fantasist. try living in the real world bhoyo.
31 Aug 2016 18:52:59
I rest my case what a surprise NO SIGNINGS so who's the fantasist now? It's people like you that are living in a fantasy world blinded to the fact that you are being conned year in year out by Lawwell robbing the fans while he pays himself 1m a year you will be the first to bleat when Man City and Barcelona are pumping us in the CL because we never strengthened the team witi CL class players.
