ed 007... where did you hear Rangers were in for Bengston? Not questioning you just would like more info {Ed007's Note - It was all over the place maybe last week(?) Google it mate, they were linked with him and Claros. (I wonder if they have the same agent??).

Believable2 Unbelievable0

Good point ed... Ive saw Claros and he looks decent... was he not meant to sign for Celts same time as Izzy? {Ed007's Note - It was last summer we were interested in him. He was actually shot in the head during an attempted car-jacking last June. It wasn't life threatening, he drove himself to hospital, but it can never be nice to get shot in the napper I would imagine. Luckily he made a full recovery from it.}

Agree1 Disagree2

Haha, maybe he's looking to come to the O/F goldfish bowl for some peace & quite!

Agree0 Disagree0

06 Jan 2012 22:13:48
If Baba and Rhodes have rocketed out of our price range and Lenny doesn't fancy Rasmussen, then I think we should try for Izzy's mate Jerry Bengston. Not proven but he has an international record of just under 1 in 2. For what it would cost, maybe £400/500K, I think it would be worth a shot. If his scoring record in Scotland matched his record in Honduras he would be a hit. Heard anything Ed?
Kevbhoy {Ed007's Note - Last I heard was his agent was saying Rangers were interested in him Kev.}

Believable0 Unbelievable1

Yeah heard that too Ed. So much for us stealing all their targets lol i.e Lafferty, Weiss, Jelavic and now big Jerry Bhoy lol.
U heard any good info about potential signings?
Kevbhoy {Ed007's Note - We have been watching James Vardy from Fleetwood Town all season and had a bid knocked back earlier on in the week. There is interest in him from the Championship as well but it will take over £1 million to get him. That's about all that is really concrete just now Kev.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Kevbhoy67, Jelavic my bum. 1st I've heard of that one lmao.
P

Agree0 Disagree1

Are you sure they had a bid for him Ed? {Ed007's Note - Yes????}

Agree0 Disagree0

Mowbray wanted to sign Jelavic after we played Rapid Vienna in the Uefa Cup. PS, I'm not Kevbhoy67 =).
Kevbhoy

Agree0 Disagree1

06 Jan 2012 22:05:29
With Kayal now looking to be out for 3-4 months and Broonie and Ledley just back after injuries should we maybe look to sign a midfielder or get someone in on loan just for cover incase of any unforeseen injuries ,Ki was also out for a while with an illness, I know we have cover but if any of our main midfielders pick up any knocks it would be good to have an experienced player come in........DH

Believable0 Unbelievable8

I would bring back Crosas for cover.I understand he hasnt been paid for months so he should be a free transfer.
Bring Back The Bishop!

Jungle Bhoy.

Agree6 Disagree5

06 Jan 2012 22:03:30
A player I've championed on here numerous times is Jerry Bengtson a 24 yr old striker who plays for Izzy's old club Motagua. He has a scoring record of 24 in 36 games so really knows his way to goal.
He would cost a great deal (about £500K-£800K) so wouldn't be a great risk. We were linked with him in the summer so he's known to the club.
HH

Here's a wee clip of him in action.

Believable5 Unbelievable3

Looks not bad, but doesn't strike the ball cleanly does he?

Agree2 Disagree4

One of those goals clearly did not cross the line. Just like the Rangers shot recently ;)

Agree3 Disagree2

Was almost like the attack when Hooper was ruled offside, after he rounded mcGregor but was at least a yard on. Admit the truth guys, Celtic were very worthy winners!!

Agree2 Disagree2

Looks like a big, strong player as well - exactly what we need just now. I've got reservations that Hoops and Stokes will both stay fit through the title run in.

Agree1 Disagree1

And the big guy scored a pen, thts an aspect we have struggled with lol

Agree0 Disagree0

06 Jan 2012 21:19:41
Don't think Celtic have a hope of signing Rhodes, banging them in tonight again, and supposed to be a few premier league scouts there watching him, his price is just going to keep rising, shame I would like to see this lad in the hoops playing alongside Hooper {Ed007's Note - Harry Redknapp and Joe Jordan are there to 'have a word'}

Believable2 Unbelievable2

I agree that the lad is doing very well just now but I would think that his value is still only around 3m which is by no means out of our reach. Would the lad really comand a startinf slot in the Spurs first team? Im not so sure.

Do I think we'll land him? Honestly.....no but it is certainly not out with the relms of possibility but having listened to ghe lad himself and his manager he is going nowhere in this trasfer window

JGD {Ed007's Note - I have said all along that he would stay where he is until summer.I'm still 99.99% certain of that.}

Agree1 Disagree0

He is wasting his time if he goes to spurs coz e wnt get a snif in dat team, celtic get the cheque book out and sign this man

Agree4 Disagree0

06 Jan 2012 20:52:02
rhodes to celtic this will be his last game for huddersfield 3.5 mil sitch 2 morrow or the day after and b4 u all start with the west ham crap it was not a offer they made it was a joke celtic are getting him and thats that lennon is sick with buyin g flop[s and he sees him like a young owen he just knows where the goal is

Believable4 Unbelievable15

I really wish this was true but I severely doubt it bud

Agree8 Disagree1

After tonight there'll a lot more interest than there already was - would love him in the hoops but can't see it

Agree5 Disagree1

Hope so he's just scored 5 in 70 mins tonight

Agree3 Disagree0

After tonight the SPL will be the last place rhodes is heading for!

Agree2 Disagree2

Rhodes has scores 5 goals so far tonight and there's still 20 minutes to play! Think he might be out of our price range now!

Barrybhoy

Agree2 Disagree1

He just scored his 4th or 5th hat-trick of the season we would be very lucky if we got him hope itz true would be a very happy tim

Nae chance now! 5 in one game, his price will be well out of our range now!

DazzaBhoy

Would love to be proved wrong. But as Charlie Nic would say, "I'll stick my neck on the fence" and say Rhodes will not be a Celtic player in the next 5 years!!

We should be in for ross McCormack he is doin well in champ and he is big celtic fan.

Believable6 Unbelievable7

Don't start this big Celtic fan sh1t again it means nothing nowadays it all about the ££££££ that's what they're all massive fans of!!
CB

Agree12 Disagree0

Is that the same BIG celtic fan who played for the Shame??????? {Ed007's Note - Yes, the exact same one.}

Agree1 Disagree1

Yes the same guy who played for rangers , remember robson he started at rangers and he was a fans favourite , i think hed be a good signing imo

Agree2 Disagree0

Both these stupid attitudes are as bad as each other, I couldn't care less who he supports/supported as a boy and I don't care what teams are on his CV, my concern is would he add anything to the current team? And IMO he would be a decent signing (if the money is right).

JD

Agree3 Disagree0

Just cause they play for rangers doesn't mean their not celtic fans young footballers are desperate to play even if its for someone they don't like so don't get all self righteous on me

Agree2 Disagree0

ASTON VILLA boss Alex McLeish has ruled himself out making a bid for Ki Sung-Yueng in this transfer window.

The former Rangers boss is a big admirer of the Celtic midfielder, and was reported earlier this week to test the Hoops’s resolve by tabling an offer around £6million.

But McLeish has now switched his attention to adding firepower to his side, and believes he has more than a 50-50- chance of securing Robbie Keane on loan from LA Galaxy.

Mrs E

(Not sure if this has already been posted - there's a lot of posts today)

Believable4 Unbelievable1

Hi Mrs E, I've just been telling the lads here that Im going to start a campaign to get you to be the Celtic correspondent for sky sports now that Georgie Thompson has went to pastures new. So as your self imposed agent you'll be receiving my invoice in the post. No cheques accepted cash only I'm afraid. You'll thank me when your sitting next to eh ......Jim White?? Oh dear this plan has suddenly gone terribly wrong.lol
CB

Agree3 Disagree0

Lol..Jim White ? I'd spike his water & watch as he makes an ar*e of himself on national telly...oops, he already does that :) Mrs E

Agree2 Disagree0

Yes he certainly does that. Had a mate who worked on Setanta when it still existed over here and he happened to work with mr white on a few occasions, unfortunately. He is a pure piss head and slimy as a frog! Which I'm sure will come as no surprise to anyone. May be slightly slanderess comment so this is just here say?!?
CB

Agree1 Disagree1

But you would like to represent us as the Celtic correspondent then Mrs E then yeah??
CB

Agree0 Disagree0

Oh go on then...i'll hand my notice in at work on Monday lol. You'd have to tell me what to say... Mrs E {Ed007's Note - How? Jim White gets by ok not having a clue ;-)

If jim white can do it Mrs E your wee bhoy could do it in his sleep

Ed what is the story with islam feruz, as he is never mentioned anymore i asume he did move to chelsea?
Also, do you know of any possible ins or outs
3 players i would love to see signed are Rhodes, Templeton and St Ledger {Ed007's Note - Feruz is long gone.}

Believable2 Unbelievable2

Get with it bud that wee boy that saint tommy saved jumped ship to money bags chelski !! Much to the dismay of many tims out there who I'm pretty sure will agree with me!!
CB

Agree10 Disagree0

Did Feruz not go to Man City. {Ed007's Note - Chelsea. Even he had more class than go to City!}

Agree3 Disagree0

Yeah Ed loves City! Didnt you know that. Tell ya you can't shut him up when he gets started on about them!! Says he can't wait till they play in the FA cup. Big City fan mate!!
CB ;)

06 Jan 2012 15:14:44
Are you actually serious about Bangura's agent being told to find him a new club Ed?
If this is the case it's fkn embarrassing.......why supposedly spend month's looking at him, then sign him, then not play him (but for the 10 mins every third game). This has been a F Up from the start to the finish, IMO we should still give the boy a chance or atleast loan him out to a club who will give him 1st team footy then see what he's like then. You can't tell me that after looking at him at several games from AIK we sign him then find out he's not what we were looking for??
CB {Ed007's Note - Seriously CB, I got a text saying it then the next thing it was all over Twatter as well.}

Believable8 Unbelievable2

CB, we have previous with this sort of thing mate.
Big Rasmussen was a wonder striker with Brondby then we buy him play, him sparingly even though he scored when played and the next thing he's a flop.
I don't get that at all!
HH
/BB

Agree12 Disagree3

This sort of thing happens with every club and every manager . Some players arent suited or dont settle . Thats why a lot of players come on trial or to train now , its part of the game .
CelticMatt

Agree8 Disagree1

Don't jump down my throughout here but I heard we signed the wrong guy!

Agree8 Disagree5

Don't be ridiculous, how did we sign the wrong Bangura. Our scouts and Lennon watched him play and he was recommnded by Larsson. Just the stupid type of drivel people come out with.

Agree9 Disagree1

Yeah true some guys aren't suited to some clubs or countries but that's after they at least get a season or so to prove they aren't any good. We haven't given bangura or Rasmussen a chance to prove if they're any good. So is NL saving us from the pelters he would get if they played and weren't up to it? I hope so if that is the case but then surely the scouts who spotted these guys in the first place have to be answerable as to why we signed them in the first place surely??
CB67

Agree6 Disagree0

Hope rangers dont put an offer in for him,lol

Agree2 Disagree0

Bangura is shaping up to be another one of those laughable signings that do nothing while they're here. He traps the ball further than Tim Howard can kick it . Cut losses now I say. Keep Sammy for the next wee while and sell him as his stock rises. Bring in someone decent up front on loan.

Agree2 Disagree1

Why not give Paddy McCourt a good chance to prove himself? or is he an enigma?

Agree1 Disagree1

God only knows what he's there for, if he doesn't get a run out against Peterhead then if I was him I'd be offski
CB

Agree4 Disagree0

I think a loan move could be a good idea. The guy clearly has fitness issues as he's been injured most of the season. A run of games might help his fitness and confidence and he could come back a better player as a result.

I'd hate to see us just offload him, unless it's for a profit I guess; but he's genuinely never had a proper opportunity. A few games for 15 min off the bench and a game where the entire team were shocking against Hearts IMO isn't a decent opportunity.

Agree4 Disagree0

He's now injured, him and hooper, {Ed007's Note - Bangura is?}

Agree1 Disagree1

06 Jan 2012 15:04:48
Ed have you heard any news regarding Kayal??
It would be a Massive blow to lose such a crucial player as him. I was just saying to a bud that it seems to me like we get one back then another goes out......
At a very crucial point in the league we need our best players fit so this is not good news by any means bud.
CB {Ed007's Note - He will be out for around 3-4 months going with the type of injury.}

Believable5 Unbelievable1

There are 2 Mo Banguras and we signed the wrong one. It sounds too funny but sadly its true

Agree0 Disagree2

Its not true ya f*d... we watched him for months. The other bangura played at AIK up front with him (Teteh Bangura) and was signed by Bursaspor the same time that his bro was sold. Chelsea and other tems like liverpool have watched him in the past and found him a bit too raw to take anything further, believe it or not we have the better of the 2 however he was never coming up here for a starting place he is getting some time on the field to settle but far too raw to chance in the important games we have been playing. He will get his chance, rekon he'll have a great pre-season BANG-BANGURA!!

Agree2 Disagree0

I'm fairly sure we bought the right one, but not so sure why! Even a cursory glamce at you Tube showed he was neither a great player or the style of player we'd been looking for -and You Tube normally make players look good!

It was an almighty cock up signing him and an act of desperation, time we cust our losses. Anyone else convinved he's 23? Hard paper round!

Agree1 Disagree1

06 Jan 2012 14:38:03
Bangura's agent has been advised to find his player another club during this transfer window "sale preferred, loan acceptable"

Thanks for putting the source up bud I appreciate it.
CB

Agree2 Disagree0

Ed I used to work at parkhead and I've been told by a few off the guys that we didn't apply for a work permit for Diawara, John Park told Lawwell that the Celtic fans would love bangura so we pushed that deal thru instead of the Diawara 1. {Ed007's Note - We didn't apply for a work permit, we didn't even apply for SFA clearance to apply for one. I'm not sure what it was but there was a reason he wouldn't qualify so they didn't apply.}

Agree0 Disagree0

There were a lot of reports suggesting that we did apply for these visas required for foreign players? But you never know nowadays bud?
CB

Agree1 Disagree0

06 Jan 2012 14:03:26
in the daily mail today that mohammad bangura is heading back to A.I.K Stockholm on loan. What a flop this guy has been, we had the chance to get diawara for £3million in the summer but, yet again, opted for the cheaper option in bangura {Ed007's Note - Don't talk rubbish. It was red tape that stopped Diawara's move in the summer. NL would have signed both if he could and then wouldn't be looking at strikers now.}

Believable6 Unbelievable1

A flop, how is he a flop he hasn't been given a chance. try using thre green matter before your tongue {Ed007's Note - His agent has been told to find him a new club though.}

Agree5 Disagree0

I agree Ed. Then NL is the flop he paid over £2m for him {Ed007's Note - Aye ok then. It's not worked out and he's moved on. Getting either a loan or sale fee and his wages off the bill rather than him doing nothing for the club and getting paid, that is shockingly bad management. NL should resign over this mistake which is crippling our club and knocked us off track of going for a treble. In fact, without being over dramatic, I would say this is a total disaster for CFC and Scottish football as a whole. How will we move on from this?}

Agree5 Disagree6

HMMMM I sense a slight tongue in cheek there bud??
CB {Ed007's Note - Moi? ;-)

Agree3 Disagree1

No need to take the hump Ed we're entitled to our comments good,bad or irritating {Ed007's Note - How about plain stupid? Explain how it makes NL a flop? The rest of his squad are top of the league and still in two cups. Is he the only manager to make bad buys?}

Agree2 Disagree1

Now you're getting personal Ed. That's naughty
NL flopped in his expectations of this player who cost the club £2m. takin the hump doesn't become you neither does being personal so accept the comments and move on

yours the "idiot" {Ed007's Note - I just think it is one of the most stupidest things I have read. You can't back it up with anything.}

Agree3 Disagree1

What a muppet that poster is, is Kenny Dalglish a terrible manager as he signed Sheidt, or Advocaat as he signed Prodan?

On the grand scale of things Bangura hasn't had enough game time, but he's still young and we can recoup the money we payed out.

DazzaBhoy

Agree3 Disagree0

Lol that you upsetting the s&n reading intellect punters again lol!!
CB {Ed007's Note - ;-) DON'T BUY THE S*N}

Agree2 Disagree1

The s&n,Barcalona and Man City are Eds favourite subjects to talk about just if anyone is a but bored !!
;) CB ;) {Ed007's Note - You forgot S*y Sports News!!! Apart from wee Hayley McQueen of course ;-)

Agree2 Disagree0

Interestingly enough for me anyway, since about mid last year I've stopped buying newspapers at all. I just check them out on the net apart from those cheeky ones who actually require a subscription. And contrary to popular belief paper will never die due to the inernet ?!?!?!
Many people thought this would be the case due to people like myself who have stopped buying papers as we can check them all out online. it certainly fills up my working day from 9 till 11 ish is paper time with the mouse hoovering over the minimise button just in case the gaffer is floating about, but I've caught him doing the same it's basically common practise nowadays in most work places, thank god.
CB ;) {Ed007's Note - They realised they had to move with the times or be left behind.}

Agree3 Disagree0

Nah it's Charlotte Jackson for me Ed now that Georgie has gone to F1 she has got to be number 1 without a doubt bud. I'm told that there are a couple who are actually going out that present sky sports, can't think of their names at the moment but he's a lucky man that's for sure bhoys. It must be a prefix fir the job if your a women you must be a stunner, maybe we could start a campaign for our own Mrs E to be the Celtic corespondent? What do you think bhoys??
CB ;) {Ed007's Note - A couple of what??? You getting over excited there mate??? Georgie Thompson was going out with Ant n Dec, WTF was that all about!!!! Tweedle Dumb and Dumber they two!!}

Agree2 Disagree0

True, but with my new toy I've been telling you all about(IPad2) it's basically like carrying about a electronic paper!! Honestly guys it's the nuts!!
I have now found my new best mate for life thinking about getting a civil partnership together the mrs says I like it more than her! But that's just silly there are things she can do that the iPad can't mind you the off button would be "sweet as" if I could fit one on her lol!!
CB {Ed007's Note - Who would do the cooking and cleaning? Think this stuff through man ;-)

Agree2 Disagree0

I actually ment one of the male presenters are going out with one of the female presenters bud. Again can't mind the names but they're defo going out with each other as I seen a bit with jim "d1ckhead" white winding them up about it whilst they were both on sky sports.
It's amazing just how much crap you can take in.
CB ;) {Ed007's Note - LOL Tell me about it! Do you watch Pointless? I'm a demon at that, which is sad to admit :-(

Agree3 Disagree0

The one programme which title sums up its existence lol
Plus I can't stand the guy who presents it he claims to be a comedian aye course you are the one thing he doesn't make me do I's laugh!!
CB {Ed007's Note - He's about as funny as a nosebleed, I'll give you that.}

Agree1 Disagree0

Ok ill test your knowledge on it then. My wee bro was off work one day and watched it he said that Celtic got a mention on it but no one really knew or had heard of us?? Did you catch that one bud??
CB {Ed007's Note - Here it is here mate, the sound is rank though:

Ed you are worrying me now bud. Get a dog or something you need to get out more lol
I can't believe that you knew what I was talking about. You'll have just made my wee bro's nite now !! Lol
Cheers man
Now I'm signing off for a bit before I get dumped.
CB {Ed007's Note - Remember I'm stuck on crutches and Moneypenny is out at work lol Take care CB.}

Agree1 Disagree0

That's funny as £&£& they got the shame but never mentioned us!!
Not sure how to feel about that ??
Oh aye they mention our darkest day in history yeah that would be right. I think that the producer would of been a huge Rankers man. Infact what is Donald Finlay up to nowadays?? {Ed007's Note - Remember they are trying to pick the LEAST popular answer. So they thought less people would have heard of Rangers :-) Think about it........}

Agree1 Disagree0

I know bud, I'm only kidding i was in a car crash a couple of years ago was off work for a couple months it's soul destroying mate!! God knows how these people who just sign on actually manage, you can almost see why some turn to drugs with the s**t that's on telly during the day!! Just be thankful that you handle all of us to brighten up your day eh mate ??
Your a good man keep the heed up cos I know it can get you down when u can't work mate. What's the latest from the doctors ?? Any idea how much longer your looking at ??
Cheers
CB {Ed007's Note - Thanks CB, I'm due another operation in March hopefully. Then just take it from there.}

Agree1 Disagree0

Also Ed i gaurantee you there isn't many people wished a happy new year from all over the world than you bud.
Your a star mate keep up the good work bud and I wish you a speedy recovery too.
All the best mate
CB {Ed007's Note - Thanks a lot CB.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Oh it was the least popular lol they mentioned Rankers class lol
We win again!
CB {Ed007's Note - And yet a Rangers fan posted it because they laughed at the Caley joke. 2 o' clock in the morning anyone??}

Agree0 Disagree0

Ah well that's good news could always be worse mate, could always be worse.
Now I best go there's a Nigerian princess who will be put to death unless I put a thousand quid into her bank account tonight!
Better do my bit eh? Lol ;)
cheers bud
CB {Ed007's Note - LOL.}

Silly bugger, classic man

Agree1 Disagree1

NL is a flop for signing bangura.

He signed Hooper, Stokes, Izaguirre, Kayal, Wanyama... Is he still a flop ?

Delusional

Agree1 Disagree0

06 Jan 2012 13:29:42
Celtic have been dealt a major blow with the news that Beram Kayal will be out for at least four months with an ankle injury.

The club has confirmed that Kayal will require surgery, due to take place on Monday and could miss the rest of the Scottish Premier League season as he recovers.

Kayal was stretchered off in the 77th minute of Celtic's 1-0 win against Rangers, following a challenge from Lee McCulloch.

The midfielder was initially ruled out for four weeks but subsequent scans have shown that further treatment is required and the player will travel to London on Monday for surgery.

Believable2 Unbelievable1

This will more than likely mean that Aston Villa will not be given any encouragement from Celtic to look to sign Ki. Massive blow for the club.

Agree2 Disagree4

The thug mcculloch tackle was intentional ,

Agree7 Disagree7

Have it on good aurthority that the injury is not as bad as has been reported. He will be out for no longer than 2 months. Neil and backroom team know he would be leaving in jan and have increased time scale to scare off 2 teams interested. Watch this space after surgery anoncement will be out for 2 months

Agree2 Disagree9

Of course the mcculloch(thug) tackle but that's why mccoist appealed the sending off. it certainly wasn't for his ability he doesn't have any

Agree5 Disagree4

I really hope so mate

Agree1 Disagree2

McCulloch should have been sitting in the stands for the old firm game, the blame goes to the SFA and fat sally!

DazzaBhoy

Agree7 Disagree2

I hope your right about the time scale that has been given for Kayal being out for. I actually heard that he was bound for man utd (Ed will be able to clarify that one with his knowledge of Utd). But if NL and the back room staff are playing this game to scare off the vultures flying above it's very clever, somehow I can't see this being the case tho?
CB {Ed007's Note - Utd are aware of him (most EPL teams are) but there was no intention of bidding, not in this window anyway. Although if they are watching Izaguirre then Kayal might have pushed himself into the picture.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Regarding the tackle between Kayal and McCulloch, Lennon said: "It was a good challenge between two committed players.

Agree2 Disagree0

He also said Kayal would be ok in a couple of days!

DazzaBhoy

Agree2 Disagree0

How is it mccullochs fault? even lennon said it was a fair tackle. you celtic fans posting about this need to get a grip theres always someone or somthing to blame. players get injured all the time ..

Agree1 Disagree2

Dazzaboy tackles like that happen in every old firm game 50/50 injuries happen in football get over it

Agree1 Disagree1

Would you be saying the same if your star midfielder was sitting in the stands for the next four months, and by star midfielder i don't mean McCulloch, Edu or Davis!

DazzaBhoy

Agree2 Disagree1

So does an opinion of a tackle change dependant on the amount of time a player is injured? what a totally rediculous thing to say.think before you type mate!

Agree1 Disagree2

At the time I thought it was a shocker and also thought McCulloch did the 'ole "I'll fake injury cause that was a bad tackle and the ref knows it". I know Lennon played it down but he said it straight after the final whistle when we were all well happy. Anyway i was reading all the posts on lets sell Ki cause he does not get a game and we could get £6 mill. He is the best passer, striker of the ball and has most goals from cente mid (although admittedly we dont get enough from midfield). Also has appeared most from centre mid this season until recently. He has played well against the h*ns and scored a peach in cup final. I would hate if people were on this site saying we could sell Hooper cause Stokes is scoring. He is not my favourite centre mid but it is gd to have options.

Believable2 Unbelievable0

I had a good xmas and new year cant complain...how did urs go?

viewparkbhoy {Ed007's Note - It was quiet mate, just spent it with my family as it was the first since my dad died. Is this you just sobering up since the 28th?}

Agree0 Disagree0

No no just back to work recently forgot all about uz haha how good was the 28th unbelieveable......sorry tae hear that about your dad.

viewparkbhoy {Ed007's Note - Och it was in February mate but thanks. The 28th was rather special, to claw that back before the turn of the year is unbelievable!}

Agree0 Disagree0

Its been an unbelieveable turn around..
have you heard anything regarding templeton keep reading posts and getting txts saying celtic are goin make a bid for him and any news on search for another centre half

viewparkbhoy {Ed007's Note - I think Templeton might end up down south. If he is available though it might force NL's hand as he does rate him. There are that many CB's names getting bandied about it is hard to know what is true and what's not. Because NL has said he was looking to strengthen there, every agent that has one is using CFC's name to drum up interest in their client.}

Heard a rumour that Celtic are looking into the possibility of signing Steed Malbranque. has anybody else heard anything?

cheers
Stephen, the roly-poly, non-holy goalie

Believable0 Unbelievable3

It was reported the other day that he was going to the Mexican club we have the partnership with (Santos Laguna).

Report said it would be a loan so it doesn't look like he will be in our plans for the coming months.

anybody agree we should keep juarez? , good player if he gets game time!

Believable12 Unbelievable1

I fully agree with this. Gives his all for the team and can play in many positions. I think given a chance he could be one of the best we have at the club.

Efraim Iuarez looked good in pre-season games , but an apparant bad attitude and poor performances put paid to his chances , he has not been missed and should be moved on , with Kayal out for 4 months , a move for Jorge Claros makes sense .

celtic considering making a move for Oribe Peralta of santos laguna

Believable2 Unbelievable5

Looks the same type of player to what we already have in Hooper and Stokes. Looks decent thought.
Think if a striker does come in it will be someone who is 6ft plus but can't think of anyone in our prize range who is going to force his way into the team. The like of Sutton or Daly would just add to our large group of squad players we already have. Anyone got a decent shout?

Agree2 Disagree0

Marc janko would still be worth a look? Celtic should have pushed the boat out to get him when we were interested 3-4 yrs ago! Great record with red bull Salzburg, can't remember where he plays now but could be the experienced player we need?! {Ed007's Note - He is at FC Twente in Holland.}

Agree2 Disagree2

Carlos Quintero is the player i heard Celtic were most interested in from Santos... {Ed007's Note - He's 5ft 5!! Hardly the type of player we need.}

Agree2 Disagree0

Another would be Thomas Sorum of Helsingborg.
At 6'1" he's a big lad and has a fair scoring record (46 in 82). Wouldn't cost a great deal.
Here's a wee clip of the guy in action.

I'd give Ki a contract extension, and see if we get any bids in the summer after he has a few medals. Everything is just paper talk just now! Would like to see a number 7 come in this window and even look at the possibility of bringing Deek back as well

Believable5 Unbelievable4

Celtics new number 7 if Lennon just stops playing and shows we can spend or if are owners give us some cash is RHODES



RHODES celtics number 7 has a ring to it lol

Agree7 Disagree5

Ki is a good player but he does not change games.with his shooting ability he should be
10/15 goals a season easy.to keep pace with the c/l teams we have to bring in young players develop and then move them on for a good price.ki falls into that bracket.out of our current midfield he is the one we could move on without to much disruption to our overall play.but if anyone leaves the money has to be reinvested.we are only 2 points ahead and have been here in jan before thinking the title is ours.for some reason our support is very confident but this is the group of players that lost the league last year and got themselves into a position of being 15 points behind.from the board,manager,players and fans lets all learn from the last 3 years and maybe this may we can be back were we belong.CHAMPIONS.

Liverpool are also seriously considering a move for Celtic's young Welsh right-back Adam Matthews with sources suggesting the club are contemplating a bid for the 19-year-old. {Ed007's Note - I said weeks ago they were watching him. They are watching a LOAD of RBs though.}

Believable2 Unbelievable4

If they want him at least 8 mill lol if he was English that would be the starting price lol

Agree4 Disagree2

They al ready have about 4 Rbs I seriously doubt they're going for Matthews {Ed001's Note - Liverpool are tracking him, one right back, Flanagan, is not believed to have the pace to have a long term future at right back. Another right back, Kelly, struggles to stay fit, as does Johnson, who is likely to leave soon. The only other right backs at the club are youths.}

In response to the talk of Jim McArthur being spotted at Parkhead, I have checked his list of players that he represents on his website. After going through them, they are mostly lower league and D Riordan is his most notable client.

Hate to say it, but it looks like we are talking to him about coming back.

WutangBhoy

Believable1 Unbelievable9

If so I think Lennon needs sacked along with the board lol that's how much I would rather Lennon put his boots back on and played upfront cause riordan is the worst striker I have seen and I watched Boyd play lol hail hail

Agree5 Disagree6

This is coming from the Keevens comment from last nights radio show.
He said when Lennon first took over he was outside celtic park when he saw McArthur and he shouted at him , are you here on buisness and he said yes Riordan , As lennon really liked him as a player but that was over a year ago .

We are not intrested in Riordan .

Agree10 Disagree3

Worse striker tht put larssons record out the window

Agree0 Disagree0

To the guy who is speeling crap about what keevins said on radio show! keevins never said when lenny first took over he saw jim mcarthur and he never asked mcarthur are u doing buisness here to which heeplied yeh riordan.

keevis clearly stated he said who u flogging? he got no answer and has deciphered its riordan and it only happened a few days ago

mcleish offering £6million for ki he wont even get scott brown for that and hes celtics worst midfielder

Believable4 Unbelievable4

Apart from keeper and centerbacks cfc team has a number of players that easy could command a 10mill+ but cause they play in Scotland people (english) don't rate them Henrik at the age of 37 was it was a massive hit in the EPL but wile he played for Celtic it was always "aww he could not do that in a real league " barca and manutd now know we can produce good players just time for rest of these bubble head English do the same

All English teams need to know is we a not rankers

Agree3 Disagree3

Scott brown not worth 6 mll 2-3 maybe come on be realistic kayal aye any day of the week would walk straight into most prem teams {Ed007's Note - I think it's you who should be more realistic.}

Agree2 Disagree1

There is no chane Kayal would walk straight into ANY EPL team. He ain't gd enough.

Did you see the Newcastle v Man Utd game? Do you honestly think Kayal could do to Man Utd what Cabaye or Tiote done?? Absolutely no chance........

Kayal would struggle in the EPL

Just watched the Dunfermline game and got to say the atmosphere on Monday inside East end park was amazing saying that we made up 7,000 of the 10,000 crowd. :0)
Got to say though a wee bit worried when Emilio kissed the badge then threw jersey into crowd. Ed - have you heard any transfer talk about Izzy? ~ Alba free. ~ {Ed007's Note - Man Utd will watch him from now until the end of the season with a view to moving for him in the summer. They have declared their interest to CFC and will be kept informed of any other interest. I would be shocked if anything happened this window.}

templeton 500k to 750k by end of next week

Ki will probs go but not for 6 mil more like 12mil due to the fact his fan base in Asia is so big it puts a few mill on the price and the fact he's not a bad player but arsenal are the team I have been told want him mite just be a BS rumour tho

Rhodes should sign but the main problem is it will not
Happen until like last day of the transfer window due to the fact Huddersfield want to hold on for as long as they can but a bid of 3.5 mil with maginn, Odea,ramersun all going on loan for the rest of the year and if he get 50 apps and 40 goals Huddersfield get another 1.8mil so not a bad deal

Believable5 Unbelievable6

Get youre head out youre ar5e

Agree4 Disagree0

WESTHAM had bid of 4m rejected the other day and are front runners for him but huddersfeild manager has stated unless a crazy offer is made he will not be going anywhere

Agree0 Disagree0

West ham did not offer 3 players that could help them go up that's 1 point and west ham are not offering 4 mil it's more like

1mil
Then after 6 months 500k
After another 6months another 500k and so on Celtic are offering money they can buy a few players with now and 3 ok players that in league 1 will smash it

Agree0 Disagree0

West Ham had £1.5m plus add ons knocked back. Not £4m up front.

Son, you play too much champ manager, get into the real world.
Pure speculation ya clown!
