Jorge Claros to sign in the next 48-72 hours

Believable13 Unbelievable32

He was shot last month and still recovering so I can't c that happening

Agree0 Disagree0

It'll be the Craig Whyte 48 hour clock for this guy. As a bluenose, i can tell you its not a good clock ;-)

Agree0 Disagree0

Wont happen this window seeing as he was shot last month

Agree0 Disagree0

Don't know whether there is interst or nor but the shooting wont be the reason for any stop to a trasfer. He was only grazed and a the time doctors said he's be out for 3 weeks. That was 3 or 4 weeks ago. Doubt we'll buy another midfielder though

Agree0 Disagree0

I have heard tonight that we have been trying desperately to get rid of stokes but no1 will take him because of his reputation for being an a**hole. Been offered to pretty much everyone and they all said no ta so it looks like were stuck with the half wit

Believable15 Unbelievable48

Stokes was about the best player for us tonight, we all no about his rep but i still think he can do a job for us

Agree0 Disagree0

Someone might take him after tonight had a great game think this post is nonsense though he has played all pre season

Agree0 Disagree0

You are either a Rangers fan or an absolute idiot of a Celtic fan. Stokes must stay, he will not go and was good tonight. GET A GRIP

Agree0 Disagree0

Stokes was brilliant tonight n y would lennon want to switch the stokes and hooper partnership

Agree0 Disagree0

What a load of Craig Whyte Stokes scored nearly 20 goals last season and wasn't even a regular starter.. get back to the shame page ya dafty

Agree0 Disagree0

I think stokes has a bad reputation and rightly so but if he sticks to playing football I think he'd be a cracking Celtic player. He's still young, think we should give him at least another season. Had a great game tonight.

Agree0 Disagree0

Its a tie between you being a person or a idiotic celtic fan who did not see a single celtic game this season or pre season, he was oustanding tonight and was great last season scoring twenty goals crawl back to you cave moron

Agree0 Disagree0

Think this is the same R*****s fan who has been posting s***e on here for a while now.. wot a very sad individual {Ed007's Note - It is extremely sad and glaringly obvious to us Eds when people , post pretending to support another club. It happens on all the sites though but is very childish, we put it down to school holidays etc}

Agree0 Disagree0

Stokes will be going no-where. He'll score goals no doubt. I said it a few weeks ago that he'll start the season with Hooper as we had exhausted all our options & I got pelters on here. Richybhoy

Agree0 Disagree0

I am not a rangers fan, I'm a season ticket holder at park head. Fact is I never said anything about the boys talent, I stated a fact about his attitude. He's a p**ck. I think he will prob score another 20 goals but he still disrupts the rest of the team. And he is a half wit but that's not to say he is a bad player but we have been trying to offload him for sometime now and no1 wants him for the reasons I have stated, attitude, not ability

Agree0 Disagree0

Season ticket holder my A**E you been wearin a blind fold gone to the game aye since when have we been wanting to let him go for sometime he had a bust up with lenny and they sorted it out and lenny has already said hes a privledge to work with to stop talkin colin nish goon

Agree0 Disagree0

Who ever posted this must bee a person no fellow tim talks about his own players like that

Agree0 Disagree0

My father is a personal friend of Mr Eric Riley and according to my father we will sign Stipe Pletikosa on a 2 year contract on friday and he will start against Hibs on sunday. Also we are going to spend £3million on Mexican Striker Aldo De Nigris.

GK - Pletikosa

RB - Matthews
CB - Wanyama
CB - K.Wilson
LB - Izaguirre

RM - Brown
CM - Kayal
CM - Ledley
LM - Commons

ST - De Nigris
ST - Hooper

£4million spent on 5 quality players and we will romp home to the title, hail hail

Believable26 Unbelievable36

I think that would be great if we got aldo, quality player.

Agree0 Disagree0

Not sure if Lenny see's Wanyama at CB next season. Think big Dan will lead the back line.

Agree0 Disagree0

Romp home the title. like you lot said last year, and the year before that....... WATP

Agree0 Disagree0

Tell your uncle that browns suspended for the first two games

Agree0 Disagree0

I know, that team is just a general line up for the season, not for sunday's game you moron...

Agree0 Disagree0

Line up doesn't refer to Hibs game, it means the season in general...

Agree0 Disagree0

Wanyama won't be the centre half. Will be that big diddy Majstorovic. De Nigris would be a quality signing. Not a bad side if it is

Agree0 Disagree0

Doubt we'll sign De Nigris unless we get shot of Sammy.....gutted

DazzaBhoy

Agree0 Disagree0

Mark Wilson will be our right back for years to come, not Matthews

Agree0 Disagree0

Totally agree, wilson is soooo underated it's startin 2 become a joke

Agree0 Disagree0

Thats not quality basicly we never heard of matthews wanyama or de nigris so shut the hell up we always say we will romp but we dont

Agree0 Disagree0

Hate to burst yer bubble but it'll be the big Swede who'll be playing central defence along with other.

Agree0 Disagree0

There's been another twist in the knowledge musona saga. Kaizer chiefs are reportdly holding out for more money than what hoffenheim have offered. We have offered more than the germans. We could be back in there. This boy is gonna be a star so i certainly hope this is true.

Believable28 Unbelievable4

Hope it is true mate the bhoy looks a class act seen lots of footage wld be a star

Agree0 Disagree0

Having seen videos of him and Mphela its a toss up to which would be the better signing

Agree0 Disagree0

20 Jul 2011 19:40:27
checked inthe team today no brown or sammy but spurs keeper was with them
fab1

Believable22 Unbelievable3

20 Jul 2011 19:27:49
Any word on Pletikosa? Is it likely he will sign over the next few days. I have heard he has already had a medical. Is this correct? {Ed007's Note - The whole point of his so called "trial" was to check his fitness, there was never any question over his ability}

Believable23 Unbelievable3

Do you think he will sign this week as I am sure he will be a pretty fit guy. We really need a keeper as no one is convinced with Zaluska. {Ed007's Note - It is because he had a bad knee injury before he joined Spurs}

Agree0 Disagree0

Heard from my mate who is in cardiff for the game. The rumour around cardiff is celtic are trying to agree wages with John Carew who is a free agent at the moment. Not sure if would be a good signing. Was on loan at Stoke last season.

Believable12 Unbelievable26

Carew is the most over rated player in europe. I would rather 2 goals a season samaras than that numpty. He's guff, if he joins Celtic im sellin my season ticket. Hopeless

Agree0 Disagree0

Good we don't need clowns like you in paradise and do me a favour take samaras with you eh. Carew would be a cracking player in the spl in my opinion

Agree0 Disagree0

Now now girls stop bitchin as far as i'm concerned you can take both f them and stick them where the sun don't shine

Agree0 Disagree0

Ed, why are the updates taking so long to appear? {Ed007's Note - I have no idea??}

Agree0 Disagree0

I posted this 3 weeks ago but it was never put up Lawwall contacted Carew's agent about his availability He was told Carew was on a family hoilday buy would return mid July and they would be willing to sit down and discuss a move He would be a cracking signing {Ed007's Note - It has been posted numerous times about Carew, and you haven't left a name}

Agree0 Disagree0

The QE2turns faster than carew. Villa song. We don't need another carthorse, has been. He is about as agile as a breeze block. We should be after some quality 24-25 year olds that can do a job for few years and get sold on for a profit. That's the way of the SPL. No point wasting money on has Beens. What you reckon ed.

Heeeeeed {Ed007's Note - I wouldn't like Carew signed up either, I never thought he was that good TBH}

Agree0 Disagree0

2goals in 26 games last season. None in 13 for villa. Shipped him off to Stoke. 2 in 13. 1 in league 1 in fa cup and if i remember it was against some hopeless mob and a tap in. He was so bad that emile heskey took his starting place in the villa team. That says it all for me The guy is well past his very average best

Agree0 Disagree0

CELTICNEWS,
Rumours from Peterborough are Lee tomlin is interesting celtic football club.
The player would be desperate for something to happen whether the club are is another matter
He fits lennons bill of young and a very decent player , who was being looked at by other clubs last year. ASWEDE

Believable6 Unbelievable23

ASWEDE you seem to prefer the "scatter gun" approach to rumours post 10 a day and ONE sometime will be right. Timalloy

Agree0 Disagree0

Aswede have you got anything right so far? anything i see from you never happens lol so don't post any more signings, your bad luck

Agree0 Disagree0

20 Jul 2011 11:42:40
I heard rumours last month about a kid named Rhys Williamson-murrell signing when his contract was up. Was this just C**p? {Ed007's Note - No he has signed but he is only a youth player}

Believable8 Unbelievable8

Hes on twitter, talks to every one very nice lad to.

Agree0 Disagree0

A talk to him on facebook. scored last week when they won 12-0

Agree0 Disagree0

20 Jul 2011 10:57:51
CELTICNEWS ,
I understand Stipe pletikosa is in talks now regarding a 2 year deal with a years extension if the club want it.
This should be concluded in the next 24 hours , he will make the trip to cardiff but whether he plays any part will be up to lennon.ASWEDE

Believable30 Unbelievable5

Is this true aboot this keeper cause a watched play for spurs wan nite maybe the only nite he played for spurs and he lookd class maybe a we bit better than at gomes so heres hopen ? could some get back to me on is ?

Agree0 Disagree0

He only played once for Spurs and they got humped 4 - 1 by Arsenal in the cup. That doesn't however take away the fact that he is an excellent goalkeeper.

TrampsPants {Ed007's Note - His "trial" is more about checking on his fitness than anything to do with his ability}

Agree0 Disagree0

He only played one game for Spurs and let in 4 against Arsenal

Agree0 Disagree0

2 of the goals against arsenal were penalties , and the other 2 he didnt have a chanceASWEDE

Agree0 Disagree0

I'd rather have Stij out of the two keepers on trail.
Unless we can bring back Boruc

DazzaBhoy

Agree0 Disagree0

Bring back boruc I don't want him back . we need to move on and improve as a squad and better better players each year so why go backwards

Agree0 Disagree0

I hope we sign Stipe and he can be the keeper we really need. Hail Hail

Agree0 Disagree0

james mcfadden on way from birmingham training camp 2 meet up with petrer lawell in cardiff defo very good source also reo coker on radar as replacement for kayal

Believable9 Unbelievable59

Yet more b/s being posted
who is your source if your source is so good name them

cfc1888 {Ed007's Note - Reo Coker was given a free transfer by AV because he refused to drop his 85k a week wages}

Agree0 Disagree0

Reo coker is on 80grand a week and has trouble finding a new club as no one is willing to meet these demands, kayak is still under contract for 2-3 years and mc fadden is a waste of space he is just another maloney always injured and will never be a regular unless its a bench warmer

Agree0 Disagree0

Total bullsht. Don't need him, don't want him. Do you think he would keep Commons out the team? Me neither.

Agree0 Disagree0

Reo-Coker is a fine player however he was also reportedly on 70k p/w at Villa, we simply cannot afford that

Agree0 Disagree0

Exactly ed bulls**t
like celtic r gonna fork out that sort of wage for reo cker
cfc1888

Agree0 Disagree0

Do we really want McFadden? injured, unfit, lacks game time. mmmmmmmmm No I don't think so.

Agree0 Disagree0

McFadden is a player i like/liked. The gut earlier asking if he'd keep Kommons out the team? You're right, the answer is no. As for Reo Coker, he has no real qualities to make an impact in a game. Kayal is worth more than twice Reo Coker, yet we could get away with paying him less than half what Nigel is on.

Agree0 Disagree0

Agree totally cfc1888.....we dont need either of these players, why buy spam (Reo Coker & McFadden) when we already have steak (Kayal & Commons)

DazzaBhoy

Agree0 Disagree0

I despise pathetic posts like this, pure desperation.

Agree0 Disagree0

20 Jul 2011 00:02:35
We will listen to offers for:
Cervi, Cha, Loovens, Hooiveld, O'Dea, Thompson, Juarez, Maloney, McCourt, Towell, Samaras, Murphy and Rasmussen

And we are still targeting:
Goalkeeper, Center half and Center forward

Believable50 Unbelievable18

Cha O'Dea and Juarez staying wouldnt be a bad thing the rest can get to..

Agree0 Disagree0

Paddy is going nowhere and should be first pick on the right wing, swaping over with Commons like we used to do with Aiden and Naka. But, the rest should go. We need a big centre forward to play with Hooper not this wee South African fella.

Anton Brennan

Agree0 Disagree0

Cha and juarez, i would be happy if Celtic gave these boys another chance. Cha was doing well till he got injured and wilsons good form.

Is it just me or is it a bit of a coincidence juarez fell out of favour after mexico national team scandal? didnt think he was that bad a player.

Rasmussen id give him a chance untill January to prove his worth.

The rest especially maloney who i didnt want back in 1st place can do 1

Agree0 Disagree0

Anton, Sammy is perfect. Just needs to be more consistent

Agree0 Disagree0

Only half these guys are on managers list to move on as there will be games when a few will be needed,

ktf davybhoy

Agree0 Disagree0

Juarez is a superb player, seen him in gold cup. We should keep him, i'd let the rest go.

DazzaBhoy

Agree0 Disagree0

Out of that lot I would keep Loovens(if he can stay clear of injury I still think he can make it at celtic, he is a dutch international ffs). Keep Sammy for European and old firm games and McCourt as a super sub. The rest we dont need

Agree0 Disagree0

Have to give juarez another try, he will come good

Agree0 Disagree0

Agree with a few different bits here, Juarez, Cha (if he can play on both sides) and Rasmussen (if we can ship Samaras & Murphy) should stay, the rest I just don't fancy.

Shaunybhoy

Agree0 Disagree0

None of these guys have had a major or minor part to play in last season so I don't see any reason to not believe this post

Agree0 Disagree0

Id pay to get rid of loovens Hes a disaster waitin to happen but jaurez is a great wee player hes just just unlucky that he joined at the same time as kayal ledley and ki If stokes sorts his attitude out him and hooper would be a phenomanal partnership plus id sell cha purely bcos matthews is younger with alot more potential and wilson is playin well also

Agree0 Disagree0

Loovens is a joke - his concentration skills are zero and, like that eejit Caldwell, always makes a big mistake. He's never played a decent games against Rangers, so for that reason alone, he has to go.
Juarez deserves a chance in midfield. He looked our best prospect at the start of the season. As for Sammy being perfect, he's lazy, selfish and has the wrong attitude for a big striker. We need a Sutton type not a big Jesse that plays once or twice a season.

Anton Brennan

Agree0 Disagree0

Stokes and Hooper all the way. Would agree we need a goalscoring target man to change things round a bit however am a wee bit sick of people writing Stokesy off. He's just as good as Hooper at this level and if anything else they work really really well together. Juarez was fantastic for us in Europe and believe me Lennon will have this in mind. Maloney will get one more season to prove his fitness, when he's fit, he's phenomenal and O'Dea will certainly stay if Hooiveld and Loovens can be offloaded. Samaras will also stay - like it or not, he's got a big role to play for us.

Agree0 Disagree0

True Anton.....but who would you have beside Hooper?

DazzaBhoy

Agree0 Disagree0

Id carry maloney on my back to whatever club wants him. he should never of been resigned from aston villa. he made a fuss about wanting to join oneil at villa and quickly found the grass isnt always greener

Agree0 Disagree0

Stokes is the best partner we have for Hooper at the moment. But, when things aren't going Stokes' way he chucks it every time. I definately think Hooper would be even better with a grafter up with him. I would like to see if big Rasmussen could play with Hooper, but Lennon doesn't rate him so that ain't going to happen. Steven Fletcher would have been perfect foil for him - we should have signed him along with James McCarthy when they were cheap.

Anton Brennan

Agree0 Disagree0

O'Dea has already said that if he won't get first team football then he will leave, and won't accept another loan deal.

It is simple in my eyes folks. Loovens and Maloney have 1 year left on their contracts, so will see it out and then leave next summer(unless Maloney drastically improves). As for the others I'd get rid of O'Dea, Hooiveld, Murphy, Cervi and send Josh Thompson and Ritchie Towell out on loan.

Agree0 Disagree0

Fletcher would have been good, Stokes needs to pull his finger out and grow up, looked good last night though. I would happily give Sammy a free to get him off the wages. Would love to see Shane Long or De Nigris aside Hooper

DazzaBhoy {Ed007's Note - Morning Dazza, Reading are looking for ridiculous money for Shane Long now, that is why no EPL team have tried to sign him, last quote was 10 million!}

Agree0 Disagree0
