Darnell fisher away on a 3 year deal! All the best. was never going to be a regular so it makes sense.

Hearing Sinclair at the game ED, heard it on the radio! And close to a deal! Looks like u could be right about before the weekend!

Beav81

Heard done deal 3 million plus add ons.


2.) 03 Aug 2016 21:50:36
Any truth in this?


3.) 03 Aug 2016 22:06:06
Was on Snyde1 earlier MR. rumours earlier to he was at the game. don't know how true it is but.


4.) 03 Aug 2016 22:46:31
The deal is taking too long. Nothing like showing a player you really want him.


5.) 04 Aug 2016 01:36:38
I think we are showing the player that we want him Dafabet as we wouldn't have went back with another bid after the last one was rejected.
He would have probably signed already if Villa hadn't moved the goal posts after the deal was already agreed.


6.) 04 Aug 2016 10:51:32
Big toure was a no brainier can't believe people would doubt that signing.


7.) 04 Aug 2016 18:40:52
Wullie1967 mate your spot on.

Hearing BR has offered James Forrest a new contract ED! Tell me this is a joke eh! I honestly thought we'd seen the last of him! 😡😡.

Beav81

{Ed007's Note - I've been out all morning but it looks like Rodgers doesn't share our sense of humour and it's not a joke.}


1.) 25 Jun 2016 13:57:52
Great wee player.


2.) 25 Jun 2016 14:04:27
One of the most ineffective players at our club


3.) 25 Jun 2016 14:22:00
Still only 24 worth keeping imo.


4.) 25 Jun 2016 14:31:23
Worth keeping! Away and gies peace! Just another piece of deadwood that should be let go ASAP! Cannot believe BR fancies this guy as a player ED! Must say that it's slightly worrying for me if that's what the manager thinks deserves a new deal!

{Ed007's Note - How dare you question anything Brendan Rodgers does!}


5.) 25 Jun 2016 14:42:50
Waste of space for the last few years, disappointed if this is true, pay as you play with incentives for good performances would be my offer.


6.) 25 Jun 2016 14:56:42
Is that sarcasm I detect ED? lol. just find it a very strange one mate! He's went down hill rapidly the last couple of seasons and I thought it was a done deal for him to leave! We're right to get rid of the mediocre players not sign them up on a new deal! And for me Forrest is mediocre at best!

{Ed007's Note - Resigning Forrest and Mulgrew isn't taking the team forward.}


7.) 25 Jun 2016 15:16:12
Fresh start for all under br.


8.) 25 Jun 2016 15:22:24
Absolutely agree! The early signs a bit worrying.


9.) 25 Jun 2016 15:19:37
Agree with Forrest ED but I think big mulgrew is a good squad player! And I think u need players who know what the clubs all about in and around the place! Wouldn't bother me to much if he stayed! But your forrests And ambrose have got to be shown the door! Anything in this Shane Duffy thing ED? Not seen much of the big guy but he looks like the sort of no nonsense player we maybe need! What u think buddy?

{Ed007's Note - Mulgrew is no better than Ambrose so why give one a new contract when you've got one under contract already? I've no idea where the Shane Duffy story came from but unless Rodgers has continued to to tap up players from his Liverpool days I can't see him unsettling a player at a major tournament.}


10.) 25 Jun 2016 15:26:55
your spot on ed they are two pieces of deadwood who should be shipped out. Wee Patrick Roberts has done more for Celtic in his short six month spell than Forrest has done in all his time here.

{Ed007's Note - Forrest isn't good enough to be called deadwood.}


11.) 25 Jun 2016 15:33:03
Maybe BR thinks he can get something better out of them as players, it was obvious that Ronnie didn't have a clue about man management, and maybe BR thinks if thy're handled the right way, they can be beneficial to the team he is trying to mould together, but if it was up to me I would let them go and try and bring thru some of the younger players, who are never going to get a chance, if we keep hanging on to the players who have had their chance to shine.


12.) 25 Jun 2016 17:09:43
Or maybe he has no transfer money.

{Ed007's Note - You stop stirring things! (giggle)


13.) 25 Jun 2016 17:53:12
So now we are keeping players because they are only 24??


14.) 25 Jun 2016 17:58:57
Br judgment will do for me I'll let him decide what's dead wood and what's not.


15.) 25 Jun 2016 18:02:26
Got to disagree ED! There's no way in hell mulgrew is on the same level as ambrose! Forrest on the other hand is a different story! Just hope DRB isn't on to something when he suggests there isn't this big transfer budget some were expecting when BR came in! Not panicking just yet of course lol. still plenty of time to go yet! But just a few wee signs to worry about!

{Ed007's Note - Don't worry about the money and I'm sure we'll sign a couple of players that will excite the fans.}


16.) 25 Jun 2016 19:11:46
ED007 had a pint today with a couple of my Tim pals, one who seems to hear titbits from insid the club. He told me that Rodgers was willing to sign Sinclair but not at any cost, he has had a look at Forrest and had a chat and seems to be willing to give him another go, on the proviso his attitude is more positive. Maybe not what a lot of fans want to hear, but on the plus side, Rodgers is not going to pay inflated prices for English based players if he thinks players already on the books can improve the team.


17.) 25 Jun 2016 18:55:25
Hope your right buddy 👍🏻👍🏻.

{Ed007's Note - And then we can all put on our big :=D


18.) 25 Jun 2016 22:22:57
I've still got my :) since br took over all abort the Brendan bus let's back our team whether it be efe Forrest Allan Christie commons griff or new bhoys c'mon lads be bhoys not ghirls come together hail hail.


19.) 25 Jun 2016 22:37:30
Aboard auto correct is a bitch.


20.) 26 Jun 2016 00:06:41
I can't belive it. We must of upped the offer that he turned down as well! Anyone that has watched him play can tell he just doesn't have it. He drives me nuts every time he he's on. The only way this would make any kind of sense is if we were confident we could sell him in a years time.
That idea doesn't even make sense as a years wages at say 12k would leave us at a loss as I could only see a club down south offering 500k max for him. If any club even wanted him!
It is a complete farce if true. Any game time he is given will take mins off of guys like nesbit.


21.) 26 Jun 2016 00:16:03
Question for you ed. Does Forrest have a few fan boys on the board? For the life of me I can't understand why he has been here so long and ex mangers/ pundits have praised him and with my own eyes I've personally seen nothing to merit it. Fair enough at the beginning he had potential and imo was riding on mcgeady's coat tails as we were convinced our academy was going to be churning out top players year on year. How that positivity has lasted so long with him baffles me.

{Ed007's Note - I've no idea mate, I can't understand it myself. Once Forrest hit 21 I knew he was never going to make it af Celtic and his attitude's always been a bit suspect to. And then there's his injury record. I think the comparison to McGeady is pretty accurate as neither of them will ever fulfill their potential. I'm thinking Forrest has not had the kind of offers he was expecting and needs to take the supposed reduced terms we offered him.}


22.) 26 Jun 2016 02:42:47
Hoops next post will have talk of commons signing a new 2yr deal and Griffiths being loaned to Swansea.

{Ed007's Note - See now you mention it, if Mulgrew has been offered a 3 year deal what happened to the policy of only offering 30+ players a year deal that was the problem? Wee Lisa's campaign worked better than the Remain one by the looks of it. All joking aside I think it's a good policy to have, a lot of the English sides use it from what I've seen.}


23.) 26 Jun 2016 05:37:50
Forrest is utter utter utter gash!


24.) 26 Jun 2016 09:11:39
I'm still holding out hope that the reason we're all quiet on the transfer front is due to looking at a higher calibre of player i. e. Players at euros. Said before i think we'll go with what we've got for 1st qualifying round.


25.) 26 Jun 2016 09:32:12
I think Brendan has told James forrest to prove he's worth a new deal.


26.) 26 Jun 2016 14:12:12
What if Forrest gets a run of games and comes good, am not his biggest fan either but remember MON with Petta?

Ed, do you know if Commons will be given another chance and if so do what position would you play him?

{Ed007's Note - Just like under RD I don't see where Commons would fit in any Celtic team unless Rodgers is going to do what Lennon done and change his team and tactics to accommodate him.}


27.) 26 Jun 2016 23:44:10
I must have read this wrong, probably due to my age, but I haven't interpreted Brendan Rodgers as saying that he is giving Forrest his new contract . As far as I understand as far as B R is concerned he likes the wee bit he has seen of Forrest and it is up to James to prove himself between now and December .
To me I M O that is reasonable and fair, if Forrest is injury free and plays well, I cannot see why he doesn't deserve some type of contract .
If he isn't up to it he is out at the end of his contract, not much controversy in that .


 

 

19 Jun 2016 10:35:14
Hearing we've had 2 loan bids knocked backed for Gomez and wisdom, u heard anything ED? Slightly concerns me that it's to loan deals we're wanting to be honest! That's if it's true mind you! No offence to the 2 players but none of them really excite me! Hope it's not a sign of what's to come!

Beav81

{Ed007's Note - I've not heard that the deals have been turned down but there's another club who want to sign Wisdom permanently which Liverpool seem to prefer.}


1.) 19 Jun 2016 13:02:49
Really underwhelmed to be honest ED! Really want us to add some experience to that squad! Defo need a couple of older heads in there I think.

{Ed007's Note - There's plenty of time left to get things sorted out.}


2.) 19 Jun 2016 13:20:22
Yeh your right ED lol. just looking at some of the names linked and it's not filling me with much confidence! Lol. just hoping Brendan pulls a few out the bag!

{Ed007's Note - I've not been that impressed myself mate, then again I'm not too impressed with Rodgers appointment.}


3.) 19 Jun 2016 13:20:22
Yeh your right ED lol. just looking at some of the names linked and it's not filling me with much confidence! Lol. just hoping Brendan pulls a few out the bag!

{Ed007's Note - I've not been overly impressed by the names we're being linked to but then again I'm not that impressed by Rodgers appointment. At least the manager is taking his time and assessing what he already has and what we need and don't forget that he hasn't even met the majority of the players yet. I expect things to move up a notch this coming week as preseason starts. }


4.) 19 Jun 2016 14:50:43
I'm sure the manager has a good idea what he wants/ needs and I would expect after a few pre season games we will see a few signings

Let's remember celtic keep there business quiet so wouldn't be too worried about these names being mentioned just now.


5.) 19 Jun 2016 15:01:44
Aye mate true enough, the players are back on Monday so hopefully once he's had a good look at them over the next few weeks and seeing them in a few games he'll get a better idea of what he's got! Said for a while but that we need a few older more experienced guys in that dressing room! To many players are a soft touch in there IMO. but hopefully like u said, over the next couple of weeks we'll see some movement! Cheers ED.

{Ed007's Note - (yes) Patience mate, hopefully it'll be worth it in the end.}


6.) 19 Jun 2016 16:01:36
I am not impressed either but endless lists of names linking players to Celtic have never resulted in any of the named players actually arriving . I prefer Celtic with all their faults to do their scouting and not depend on names the Scottish media comes up with .
I want a few experienced players all right but I hope we don't go to the near forties or to the ex prisoners to fill our team.

{Ed007's Note - We seem to be linked with any player Rodgers has an acquaintance with and you're right, Chris most of it's just the msm making up headlines.}


7.) 19 Jun 2016 18:13:18
Bit harsh Ed about BR's appointment mate?

He has managed to fill the shop, massive step up from being underwhelmed @ RD appointment IMO

In all honesty mate who could have we got in that eclipses BR (y) ?

{Ed007's Note - Jamie I've seen the Liverpool fans trash him and pick his management style apart, I've heard stories about the way he's treated young players by making them empty promises before being 'Brendaned' like Andre Wisdom was - it's all there for you to read on their site including Ed001's and Ed002's input over the years.
Rodgers is being paid a hell of a lot more than RD was, 8 times as much if certain people are to be believed, and it's a massive risk. Just because he's Celtic-minded and was friends with TB doesn't mean he's the right man for the job, for the money we're paying him we could have have been more adventurous in the appointment.}


8.) 19 Jun 2016 19:35:23
Fair enough but from the people touted maybe only Moyes could have eclipsed him

I honestly think PL and DD could not have gave us someone "left field" It had to be big, popular etc they had many boxes to tick IMO or they were leaving themselves open this time round (y)

As ever no reason to doubt you but makes you wonder why we are pursuing Wisdom then?

{Ed007's Note - I mentioned the other day that Rodgers would have some job convincing Wisdom to join him at Celtic after the way he treated him. I don't expect things to be as plain sailing behind the scenes as some people seem to be hoping they will be, Rodgers is a very divisive figure and if he doesn't buck his ideas up about youth players and realise how important it should be for us it could end up like another MON era and put us back years in the long run.
A manger who doesn't watch his own youth teams doesn't exactly fill me with long term confidence.}


9.) 19 Jun 2016 21:14:50
I thought Rodgers did a good job at Swansea but a poor job at Liverpool. I hope to goodness it's the Rodgers from Swansea that we see and not the Rodgers from Liverpool.
It always looked to me when I saw Liverpool play that he couldn't sort out their defence, if he struggles to sort out our defence then we are going to be in trouble.

Howling old bhoy.... Great comment about the hills and bartons. Lol. I agree with u totally about a bit of experience being needed, but I think we will come good and fans will be happy. It might be blind optimism, but I hope I'm right HH


 

 

13 Jun 2016 09:04:30
Any truth in this Danny graham thing ED? Heard a few times about this now! Thought we would have been looking for better than this if I'm being honest.

Beav81

{Ed007's Note - It's a load of rubbish mate.}


1.) 13 Jun 2016 13:24:56
Scrap that mate just seen the Blackburn news.


2.) 13 Jun 2016 13:09:40
Is this with your reliable lowdown Ed? His cousin told me a deal was close but he may have been on the wind up, even he wasn't to complimentary towards the standard of signing.

{Ed007's Note - I spoke to someone last night that told me Graham was due to meet Blackburn for talks today.}

See lawell has said we're wanting just one more signing! To me this ain't good enough! A RB a CDM are essential! And we're really light up front! Not happy with this if I'm being honest! But i am in no way surprised! Same old celtic! Penny pinching as per usual!

Beav81

1.) 25 Aug 2016 22:01:10
Cant be accused of that this summer. Must be about 10mil spent on transfer fees, agent fees and wages this summer already.


2.) 25 Aug 2016 22:23:43
The huge cash injection courtesy of the CL has never really filtered through to transfer budget and the board/ major shareholders take a fair cut, while playing staff will be paid bonuses.
The manager will be given loose change for a bargain and a loanee,


3.) 26 Aug 2016 10:56:02
Beav, Mr Lawwell's probably looked at the group and decided it's highly unlikely that Celtic will progress in Europe beyond December hence it'll be too much of a financial gamble to spend money. I reckon players will go to finance any move.


 

 

25 Aug 2016 17:57:22
Don't think we could have got a harder group! Barcelona again! 😡😡😡😡.

Beav81

 

 

24 Aug 2016 10:17:29
Alrite ED! So do u think Brendan will be rethinking the only getting 1 player mate? On the evidence of last nite we need another 2 or 3 IMO! The right back should be a priority if lustig isn't going to be able to play as much! Janko is an awful footballer! Watching him last nite was like watchn a car crash in slow motion! Woeful! I've said already about the need for a top quality midfielder to. mcgrergor isn't up to it in these matches and bitton has went backwards! Wouldn't say no to another striker to! What u think ED?

Beav81

{Ed007's Note - I don't think Janko's awful, he's more than capable of doing a job in Scotland for us and he isn't even 21 yet, what help did Forrest give him last night?
Janko and McGregor are both more than capable of doing a job on the domestic front and both have the potential, and plenty of time, to improve.}


1.) 24 Aug 2016 11:08:01
ED u seriously didn't think janko was awful Last nite? I thought he was shocking! I actually felt sorry for him he was that bad! I was stunned to see him out in the 2nd half! I'll give u that him and mcregor could do a job against spl teams but in Europe thee not the answer! Mcgrergor was like a wee lost boy out there last nite! So do u think we'll bring in more than one player mate?

{Ed007's Note - I didn't say Janko wasn't awful last night, but we could say the same for the other 10 players out there too, why single Janko out when Forrest done nothing. Gordon, although he saved a penalty that would have eventually seen us go out, had a hand in conceding both goals, KT at the first goal was standing in no man's land not knowing whether to go to a man or go to the near post. Poor organisation from the GK and defence costing us again. That's the worst performance I've seen from young KT. And what did our new star man Sinclair do? Griffiths and then Dembele were anonymous and Brown and Bitton can only play together in a 3 man CM, just having those two in there doesn't work, why can we all see that and Rodgers' can't? This is the CL and is a brand new experience to a lot of our players and we're on a learning curve again thanks to the board's lack of investment in the last 3/4 years.
James Forrest falls into the same category as Janko, McGregor, O'Connell and Armstrong, good enough for the SPFL but nowhere near the level needed in Europe, the difference is Forrest won't get any better or any more consistent after all this time. McGregor just seems to be the next in the pecking order to get blamed for everything that goes wrong after Ambrose and Johansen.
There's still question marks hanging over Griffiths at this level as well and as our only natural goalscorer I think it's vital that another quality striker is brought in, if LG happened to get injured we'd be really struggling.
If Rodgers is planning to go with a back 3 in Europe we need a right sided wing-back brought in as Lustig will be the RCB in the 3. To be honest I'm not sure young KT can play as a wing-back either but he's young enough to learn and adapt his game. Sticking with that 3 at the back we'll need either Rogic or A.N. Other to play in the MF 3 with Brown and Bitton (Johansen next to Brown?) to provide an attacking option in there
Forget Janko being awful for a minute, the manager's performance was the worst of the night. From a terrible team selection to his substitutions and tactical changes, Rodgers got nothing right last night. People were quick to slag RD's 4-2-3-1 but Rodgers 4-3-3 is actually worse to watch.}


2.) 24 Aug 2016 11:28:20
Janko was out for nearly a year with a bad ankle injury and I tihnk he has shown in spells what a good player he could be. He is young, needs work on the defensive side of his game but in the SPFL he will spend most of the game on the front foot. I tihnk last night highlighted inexperience from him but agree that Forrest didn't offer anything. Is it just me that thinks James only lays when we are running all over teams and when it gets tough he does the usual disappearing trick. In the forst 5 mins last night he rubbish out of 2 tackles, fixed his hair, pulled up his socks and didn't track the runner. Is the boy Gunther at Reading still available for £1million, a decent buy, defender first, winger second.


3.) 24 Aug 2016 12:25:19
totally agree Ally. Janko will learn but Forrest was no help what so ever. at least Sinclair tracked back to help keep. I thought we should have played 5 at the back to start with. but the only thing that matters is we are in the draw.


4.) 24 Aug 2016 12:35:04
The difference being that we have qualified for the CL, I hope BR doesn't go down the road of continuing to play Janko, no matter how bad his form is, in the vain hope the more games in the first team is the best way to get his form back, don't think him playing badly in thd first team is good for the team or for his confidence, McGregor is a good enough forward but noway is he a midfield player, Biton is vastly overated, but the thing is we have qualified, that's a hurdle tgats been overcome, it must have been on the players minds about failing at this stage in the previous two years, I would expect the team to be much more relaxed and confident in the group stages, whoever they play, they will probably be the underdogs, and with a proper manager in place now I expect great things.


5.) 24 Aug 2016 12:59:06
Just posted up the page about Forrest giving Janko nothing. I'd like to think if we went and spent that "8m" on a "marquee signing" they wouldn't be so damned after a couple of bad games (in amongst some good games) . Jeez I sound like Chris Old Bhiy.

{Ed007's Note - Janko's not even 21 and already he's been written off, the same happened with O'Connell after a preseason friendly! It's a common trait in modern Celtic (football in general?) supporters, one bad game means your time at the Club should be over - depending on who the player is of course.}


6.) 24 Aug 2016 13:32:10
Not writing Janko off, just don't think playing him in high pressure games when he has not been playing well is a good idea, it just means he gets sll the provebial on his head, when he has a bad game, wish there was a return to the old reserve league, where players could get a chance to get their form back.


7.) 24 Aug 2016 16:34:18
I think we should have a B team aindoh. Not sure if it's been put forward before. It wouldn't just aid us. I'm sure plenty folk would pay to go to other clubs grounds too. In the Championship for example some TOTAL attendances are several hundred, so probably just a handful of away fans there?


 

 

23 Aug 2016 23:36:32
So I take it Browns thinking about being a stand up comedian after he retires! Craig Gordon was outstanding from start to Finish he says! Now by all means back your team mates, but don't talk utter Shoite to do it! He was at fault for both goals! That attempt at the first one was pathetic and the 2nd one was something u would see in my wee nephews under 8s game! Outstanding! Away and don't talk pish! Come and do the interview say how happy u are to be In the CL and get the hell out there! That tonite was a massive reality check for BR and the board IMO! Yes we've done well in some games and I'll admit I thought we'd turned a corner! But that tonite was as bad as I've seen! Janko mcgregor bitton and Gordon ain't good enough! The whole team were like rabbits caught in the headlights! And let's not kid ourselves, that mob were average at best! They out thought outfought and out played us all nite! We've far to many passengers in these games! Big toure and Sinclair are the only 2 who got pass marks for me! And if BR didn't know erik should be next to toure in every game then he does now!

Beav81

1.) 23 Aug 2016 23:54:03
Bitton did ok mate and Toure and Sinclair were class agree with everything else.


2.) 24 Aug 2016 00:03:53
I think Janko was at fault for the second but I do agree it's time for a change in goal. Bring on Packard Bonner!


3.) 24 Aug 2016 06:17:10
Hahaha time is a great heeler obviously , packy bonner was the Bain of my life when I was a kid and was an average keeper at best, so much so that I remember we used to joke at school he was the only player at Celtic park scared of the cross, I remember him dropping 2 crosses at ibrox during a game causing us to get beat 2-0 and leaving this young kid in tears.


 

 

23 Aug 2016 23:23:18
Just seen the quote from brown about Gordon being outstanding from start to finish! if that's his honest view of that game rhen we should be terrified of what's ahead this season! Now I'm all for a captain backing his team mates but don't come.

Beav81

1.) 23 Aug 2016 23:42:54
I think he was just doing the captain bit and coming out in support of a player who is under fire. Would not be surprised if Gordon has played his last game for a wee while.


2.) 23 Aug 2016 23:45:45
What do you think he's going to say lol.
