Ed, PL is quoted as saying that he hasn't yet finalised things with Man City for Paddy. If it's just a loan should it not be a straight forward matter? Would this situation lead you to think that he's genuinely trying to bring the lad in on a permanent deal, or is that just wishful thinking on my part? HH.
{Ed007's Note - We've always wanted a permanent move for Roberts as have City, it's the player himself that would prefer another loan as he believes he can still carve out a future for himself at City.}

So what your saying is that PR is the won who is holding off just now? Do u think ED that the two signings PL mentioned are the Coetzee and PR deals?
{Ed007's Note - Nothings changed. Roberts has said all along that he would only leave City on another loan and that his preferred destination was Celtic while City wanted him to go to Southampton or abroad if it was only a loan deal.}

What Celtic should do is say we're bigger than u PR promote the young guys and get in a CH with experience of CL with funding we will save from getting PR in? What do u think ED?
{Ed007's Note - Well Kolo Toure is at Lennoxtown today.}

He's not fit enough he mite know of somebody who looking for a game haha. ED I respect your opinion so do u think that the two hopefull signings PL is talking about could be Coetzee and PR or is it some other possibilities?
{Ed007's Note - I think there will be more than those 2 added to the squad before the window closes.}
25 Aug 2017 12:20:54
I'd look elsewhere if he doesn't want permanent deal .
25 Aug 2017 12:33:15
Agree DRB, we want players to want to be here! Ed do you have you heard of any other players for the wing if PR deal doesn't materialise?
{Ed007's Note - Jonny Hayes.}

Looks like there might not be any announcement today about Paddy then. Let's not build our hopes up bhoys, if it happens it happens. HH.
{Ed007's Note - There won't be any announcement today.}

Here one to get your juices goin' Ed Ollie Burke has signed for WBA so one would imagine James McLean will be surplus to requirements down there?
{Ed007's Note - Don't they play on opposite wings? McClean would be a great understudy to Sinclair right enough and the meltdown from the Klan would be absolutely delicious.}
25 Aug 2017 13:38:35
A thought J McC played either wing just checked and your right WL or LM but heh CL football, PR in and JMcC all in one week that would have the zombies POPPYIN' there corks don't you think? :-P.
{Ed007's Note - Even the phone-ins would be worth listening to.}

all this fannying about with signings is ridiculous, especially with the millions of pounds of the fans money they are sitting on.
25 Aug 2017 19:34:14
Come on Jamesbhoy are u seriously shocked that we're fannying about? It happens every window mate! all bluster and smokescreens til next Thursday then it's the old well we tried our best but we just couldn't get the players in! That's lawell said nothing certain regarding PR Chris Davies used the line nothing imminent and Brendan says tonite we're trying to add quality but IF we can't get it we won't! I'm very much a pessimist when it comes to Celtics transfer dealings! But maybe lawell will surprise us all! Oh look there goes a pig flying by ma bedroom window!
