He spends as much time on the treatment table as Rogic. Unreliable and misses to many big games. Excellent when fit but he left us for Norwich.

According to Neil McCann we've had a bid for Hendry knocked back.

I think I will sleep ok with that news.

Looks like he is trying to alert other clubs into making a bid by commenting on a bid that went in over 2 weeks ago. It was probably an enquiry rather than bid. Take anything Sky Sports says with a kilo of salt.

Rodgers obviously ratesthe boy or we wouldn't have bid in the first place. Must admit it don't know much about the lad but if Rodgers likes the look of him then we need to trust his judgement. We can't demand top dollar for the likes of dembele then expect Dundee to sell on the cheap. I'm sure there's a deal to be negotiated and a fee could be agreed if we really want him.

Agree0 Disagree0

Think we bid for him at the end of last season tbh.

Quite a few Gerry. They started aff with offering a score and worked their way up a tenner a time.

My best pals a bluenose and as I talked about Mousunda maybe coming to us, I actually heard his heart break. He had been praying that we weren't going to do anything. He knows I'm a greetin faced barsteward, so my absolute optimism we will get quality ruined his beer.

I had a great time.

Well according to a post on here, a couple of suits, who obviously are kept up to date about our dealings saying this is now only 6 months. I will take that info as seriously as any other source.

It did seem a longish deal that was being mentioned and did raise the question would the boy want to be up here that long. Even if it's only six months, one look at Mcgreggor playing and I would rip your arm out of the socket even for that.

Still hope it's 18months but that might not be acceptable to the player. Here's hoping.

Agree0 Disagree0

I see Rogers is talking about the absolute need to strengthen now in the Evening Times.

Get ready for a bit of activity lads.

Not long now. And not projects. Quality.

I hope for three, but will be happy with two.

We can all talk about it MP.

I hear you Jim, but, I absolutely believe we will do it. In fact, I'm not one for increasing bookies take gone pay, as every gambler is, but I would bet good money this will happen.

Don't get me wrong I have put a deposit down in a padded cell just in case we don't, but, it will happen mate.

OK guys for all those panicking about our lack of signings, here is gossip from my Celtic Pools pal.
Apparently, a lot is happening behind the scenes with Lawwell and his team doing all the negotiating. Brendan is focusing on the Hibs and Hearts games.
But from Wednesday expect activity, rumour is Ross Hall has been asked to remain on standby for any medicals.
My pal expects 1 maybe 2 coming in and same going out.
Window in Scotland closes on Thursday next week, so Rodgers will have 2 days to meet and greet incoming players.
Only time will tell how accurate his info is. hail hail.

Let’s hope you’re friend is right Timalloy.

@KenLikeEh well apparently bids now being made. Press say
First bid is for Jack of Dundee. My pal had mentioned this in relation to Simonovic, buy Jack for around £1m then sell Simonovic for double that. We get a younger, fitter, pacy defender and get shot of an injury prone player.

Agree0 Disagree1

26 Jan 2018 16:03:17
Do we really think Jack is the answer? I'm not sure.

Not impressed with Hendry to be honest, no more projects please

First team players only.

Agree0 Disagree1

26 Jan 2018 17:07:53
From what I've seen, he's quite handy. I like jozo right enough but there's something g not right about his fitness.

Maybe this will be for the best.

Agree0 Disagree3

27 Jan 2018 11:09:40
3 disagrees.

Fast forward to this time next year and everyone and their dug on here be raving about how good Hendry has been for celtic.

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Jan 2018 12:23:32
We all hope that would be the case and define key hope it happens if we sign him. Just not convinced.

Agree0 Disagree0

£12m from Brighton is the bid being reported as the one we knocked back for Dembele. If so, it's nice to hear BR say that's nowhere near his value. Personally I wouldn't entertain a penny less than £20m, and at that price I'd want a nice sell-on clause as well. Time to play hardball with these jokers, especially when you look at the boy they've just spent £14m on.

Theres bang average players going for more than 20 mill time to dig our heels in with these English charlatans look how big Virgil panned out we knew his worth but he had to go to England to merit the huge fee.

Agree0 Disagree1

26 Jan 2018 12:26:10
To be fair Locadia is a great player and a snip for £14m considering the pish some of the English players are going for. But £12m is an insult and total waste of time I don't even get why they would waste their time bidding £12m when it has been well publicised that we was valuing him around £30m.

Agree0 Disagree2

26 Jan 2018 19:18:35
Surely every club starts low when bidding for any player just to see the reaction. Basic haggling. going by what Rodgers has said it'll need to be a crazy bid to get him in this window.

Agree0 Disagree1
