Ed, Is there any chance Celtic will recall Ryan Christie from his loan at Aberdeen now that Hayes has been officially ruled out for the rest of the season? That many games coming up squad depth is a must. HH.
{Ed007's Note - I can't see Christie being recalled, Michael, more likely Johnston will cover for Sinclair.}

No bother ed, just thought wee Johnstone looked a bit light for the first team yet so thought Christie would of been an option ðŸ‘.
{Ed007's Note - They seem happy enough to have him on the bench and Christie's better playing than coming back to be cover and sit on the bench.}

Ed the Hamilton game has been called of because of a frozen pitch or so it says on sky's score centre app. Have Hamilton not got a plastic pitch? A thought that was playable in all weather? Have sky got it wrong? A know it's nothing to do wae us but since you've got a soft spot for them a thought u mite know.

Will Mosonda loan be put into practice now Hayes is out? Plus in your opinion Eds will MD be off this window?
{Ed007's Note - I've always said I expect Dembele to leave in the 2018 summer window and nothing's happened so far to make me change my mind.}

With the news of Hayes out any up date on Wee Paddy and how his recovery is coming back on?

Wee Mickey looks a top player, but there is no question he hasn't the physicality yet. With Paddy out and now Hayes, who I don't think can cut it anyway, it gives him a chance to toughen up getting blootered about.
I have high hopes for him though. Just needs to increase his core strength to be able to fend off challenges. In the second half he faded and was out muscled at every turn.

The January Transfer window is a pain. I often wonder how many teams (especially with the monopoly money down south) buy players just to weaken the opposition and not to strengthen their own squad?
From a Celtic stance, I get concerned (again, because of the stupid money) that teams in the relegation zone start looking at our players to strengthen their team in the dog-fight.

I don't think Christie is ever going to play a prolonged role for Celtic . It could be argued that loaned once to Aberdeen maybe beneficial to Celtic and Christie . Loaned twice and it's obviously an opportunity to put him into shop window and hope someone buys him.
I am sure D D would look at the bill for coaching and improving footballers at Lennoxtown and wonder why the hell we would send the same player back to Aberdeen to be coached by inferior coaches.
