Celtic defender Ewan Otoo, 20, is close to finalising a permanent move to Dunfermline following a loan spell.

This is dissapointing. Thought He would make it.

Keezo1

1.) 16 Jun 2023 13:02:24
Think he has found his level.


2.) 16 Jun 2023 23:19:39
Maybe he will turn out like Hickey or Robertson, who were deemed not good enough and went on to prove that releasing them was a mistake, i know it might not be quite the same, but if the young man works hard enough, anything is possible.


3.) 17 Jun 2023 13:24:00
Hickey wasn't deemed not good enough. Celtic tried to keep him but he turned us down to move back to hearts.

Read the below Daily Record stuff this morning. Granted the source is nonsense but do you think anything in it? I see Japan as being stronger pull for Ange than the league down south.

'Japan have placed Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou at the top of their wanted list if they make a managerial change after the World Cup, with Nikkan Sports saying technical director Yasuharu Sorimachi has already reached out to the Australian.'

Ange has already said he is building something special here . so imo nothing in this .


2.) 18 Nov 2022 13:30:13
This was always going to happen, they're trying to derail us but the big man's going nowhere.

Reading a silly rumour that Connor McGregor looking at Celtic and Chelsea.
If he buys them I would want no association with them so stay clear of us.
Hopefully just paper nonsense chat.

Keezo1

1.) 08 Mar 2022 17:22:32
McGregor will not be buying Celtic or Chelsea.
His net worth is somewhere in the region of £100m - £130m depending on what source you read.
He couldn't afford to buy Celtic if he spent every penny he has and he couldn't afford to but 5% of Chelsea.
He would have no capital going forward.
He knows little or nothing about football.

End of. HH.


2.) 08 Mar 2022 17:30:00
I don't think he'd be allowed to buy both clubs mate.


3.) 08 Mar 2022 17:32:34
Roman wants £4 billion for Chelsea. While McGregor has millions I'm afraid it's chump change set against that figure.

Now, Celtic, that is another matter. I don't know if he could buy out Desmond on his own but he could certainly do it with a small consortium.

Would DD sell shares in his "toy" though Keezo1?


4.) 08 Mar 2022 18:52:02
Maybe he heard how much certain clubs in Scotland go for and thought the was the going rate for a club ?????.


5.) 08 Mar 2022 19:21:54
I put a bid in bid to buy Australia.


Still waiting for them to get back to me with an acceptance.

And believe me, that will happen before the Bold Yin buys Celtic. :)


6.) 08 Mar 2022 20:10:42
Magicpole, I hope you didn't gazzump my own £5 offer for Australia. I'll be mightily offended if you did but I'll go as far as £7 if I have to. HH.


7.) 09 Mar 2022 01:54:45
McGregor is a bam. Does anything nowadays to stay relevant. He spews BS on his Twitter in a regular basis.


8.) 09 Mar 2022 20:11:52
As far as I read he was talking about buying them with other people and not himself. Wether it’s bull or not is another thing though.


 

 

20 Sep 2021 15:53:42
James McCarthy - I feel the lad came in few years too late. If he rediscovers his form then excellent but he was a strange signing.
I am now hearing that Hart and McCarthy were signed without full consent from Ange.
I am concerned for season ahead as we are in transition. The title is not our devine right to win back.
While this season is going to be bumpy we need patience.

Keezo1

1.) 20 Sep 2021 16:52:41
Hart said in an interview with Micah Richards, that Ange phoned him personally to say he didn't need to scout Hart because he already knew what a great keeper and character he is, that could obviously be BS the manager has told him to get him on side, but Ange at least had some input into that one.


2.) 20 Sep 2021 20:56:12
The usual rumours starting I’m hearing this and that, where do these rumours come from is it from someone just to get to get fans talking .

{Ed007's Note - From a guy that claims McCarthy can't keep up in training but didn't know that he had missed training etc with Covid. #ClickbaitPish


3.) 21 Sep 2021 09:14:39
Thought the game was to much for McCarthy the lads on here say he's a great player etc I'm not sure about this. The amount of stray passes he did was not good for a player know to have a pass in him. Calmac missing we are weaker we know what calmac brings to the team. We missed his presence on Sunday. Maybe try calmac and McCarthy against Raith rovers to see how he does. Rogic who is my fav player showing glimps of what he can do. Not sure what's going on with Turnbull still off it. But as you know lads us celtic fans exspect every game to be 5 stars. Micky and bitton time to move on imo We are rebuilding but the fans want it sorted now. Think we need 5 more players who are up to scratch and ready to go. To make us stronger. Ange will have the next window in January to address this.
I know we have injuries and a lot of players left us but we are not strong on the bench so let's see what happens on Thursday. HH.


4.) 21 Sep 2021 09:23:17
I don't think we will see the best of McCarthy for a while yet. Yes he had a poor game but so did most others who are more up to speed and have had a pre season. It doesn't mean half the team aren't good enough, it happens.


5.) 21 Sep 2021 13:03:31
Think its a bit early to judge mccarthy. There weren't too many who played well the other. Like to see him, mcgregor and rogic play together for a few games first.


 

 

23 Aug 2021 17:01:48
Im looking at the greek striker we have been linked with and football commentator Derek Rae who follows the German game these days thinks he will be with us. I have a feeling he will be hot and cold like big Samaras. Given the other Greek Barkas has not settled our record with Greek players is not great.
In other news I see we have stopped moaning about Kennedy and Strachan. They are assisting big Ange quite well although it baffles me how they survived. Especially Kennedy.

Keezo1

1.) 23 Aug 2021 17:36:37
I still don’t really understand what people have against Kennedy and Strachan. What evidence do we have that they aren’t good at the jobs they are currently being asked to do?


2.) 23 Aug 2021 18:09:44
Let's move on it's been done to death this subject 🙃.


3.) 23 Aug 2021 18:22:36
Well it seems like Kennedy performed while Rodgers was at the club. Lennon joined and his form dropped along with the rest of the club. Maybe the issue was with Lennon. Clearly they’re doing a good enough job at this point to give them plaudits.


4.) 23 Aug 2021 21:03:06
Lewis, both are useless Lennedy was arguably worse than Lennon if that is possible, what has Strachan brought to the party other than his laptop, get rid of both tomorrow and bring in coaches on Ange’s wavelength.

{Ed007's Note - Kennedy and WGS Jnr will be part of Ange's backroom staff. Are you seriously trying to blame Kennedy & WGS Jnr for what went wrong last year but not willing to give them credit for their part in what's working this season?
Maybe the problem last season was who was giving out instructions and what they were doing with the available data?}


5.) 23 Aug 2021 21:17:39
Can’t compare possibly the new incoming Greek player to ones who are or who have played with the club.
Everyone deserves a chance.


6.) 23 Aug 2021 21:57:55
Well said Ed. Exactly my point, this Kennedy/ WGS is almost creeping up on flat earth at this point.

{Ed007's Note - Oooffffttt do you really want to go there? 😁😋


7.) 23 Aug 2021 22:11:35
I’ve seen and read enough nonsense on the matter 😂😂.

{Ed007's Note - Just remember, LG and bendy water outside Celtic Park, that's where it started going downhill for LG at Celtic.... think about that 😁 I've not been the same since I looked into that $hit!}


8.) 24 Aug 2021 07:31:38
Watch the interview back when Duff left the coaching set-up Kennedy is highly regarded as a young coach within the game. Strachan is a data analyst these guys use methods of communication such as laptops ipads the media made an issue with it and a section of our fans jumped all over it the days of eating bits of paper are gone let the guys do their jobs.


Lennon wasn't interested in the modern aspects of the game he inherited a squad of players who were used to that professional approach. Lennon's coaching was based on we are better than them go out and do it. Big Ange will win most games but he stil needs time and as you see what's happening at the moment if our club aren't being mistreated on the pitch they're getting abuse off it. We have a manager who is a decent man a citizen of Glasgow let's hope the media and Scotland bigots afford him the respect he and his players deserves.


9.) 24 Aug 2021 11:51:40
I always thought the criticism both got was like going to a restaurant, getting a sh it meal and blaming the waiters who brought it. We all know where the real problem lay and it wasn't with they two. As Ed says, we can't give them abuse last year for a disaster then exclude them from the good things we are doing now. Ange is a leader and a man with a plan. When is the last time we had that? If Ange is fine with them continuing, so am I. let's leave last year where it belongs, as a haunting memory that being complacent and letting things slide is a recipe for disaster. let's focus on the future with Ange and his team, no matter who they are.


10.) 25 Aug 2021 08:31:10
The only thing I can see why people have a problem with Kennedy is because when lennon left he had a blank canvass to play his own brand of football as the league was over, but he stuck to the way lennon played. That's my only gripe with Kennedy.

If we do not have hope at moment then we have nothing. I am not at all confident that a team will turn up against Livi or Dundee never mind Sevco.
Sevco are beginning to charge and there is a very real chance we do not win this league, mainly due to our failings. Nae fight in the team.

Keezo1

1.) 18 Dec 2023 16:30:26
Brendan should try a 3-5-2 formation on Saturday against Livingston and take it from there.
He needs to try something different.

Lennon changed to a 3-5-2 in our 9 in a row season and it worked wonders.
Brendan needs a different approach.


2.) 18 Dec 2023 16:50:13
You know I'm 100% agreement with you on this Buzz - three CB's ala MON back in the day.

Although our CB's don't have pace I'd gamble on the midfield and forward players flooding the last 3rd and scoring the goals.

☘️ ☘️ ☘️.


3.) 18 Dec 2023 23:23:49
I doubt very much if BR gambles 3 5 2 in an important league game, he doesn’t look to me to be the type of manager to risk everything playing a different formation.


4.) 19 Dec 2023 07:57:07
Keezo 1 . I have, like u great reservation especially about Livingston match . However, what ever charge Sevco are on, is down to their elite ref and VAR operators . Sevco hasn’t and won’t have bounce.


 

 

23 Oct 2023 19:08:01
Looking at players out on loan. Ben Summers, Ben McPherson and Mathew Anderson sound like they are all doing well. Hope Jonny Kenny kicks on and Tobi O comes back from injury as big things were thought on him. Only other hopes are Bosun Lawell and Adam Montgomary.
The rest Shaw, Ideguchi and Haksobanovic can go.

Keezo1

1.) 23 Oct 2023 20:08:24
We have players in the current squad who don't look like they are going to make the cut, if that's the case there is little chance many or any of those guys will get a chance.

It's a shame but we are so bloated as a squad, I think there will be a big trim in January with a couple coming in but lots heading out.

I don't think turnball will get a new contract, Kobyashi, the Australian winger and the Korean defensive midfielder will struggle to get near squad.

BR basically said the Australian was out of his depth at this time which isn't good news for him.

It's now about removing the excess and fine tuning the squad, which should include one or two quality additions, as we are close to a very good side imo.


2.) 23 Oct 2023 20:15:29
I don't have a view on it, but Idegucci's team (Avispa Fukuoka) are playing much better than expected this year, getting to a domestic cup final for the first time in their history, another very nearly, and securing a comfortable upper-level league position. Idegucci has been a big part of this. Still can't see where he might fit in at Celtic. All those midfielders must have been brought in with a view to inverting the fullbacks, in retropsect?


3.) 24 Oct 2023 17:39:54
Bottom line for me, none of those young players mentioned look anywhere near good enough. They are the latest in an eternal line of Dundee level players the Academy churns out effortlessly. Last 1st team pick Player, KT, before him Calum before him Forrest and that’s that. The Academy is an absolute farce that provides a first team player every ten years. So, don’t hold your breath about the above list. Would be my advice.


4.) 24 Oct 2023 19:20:40
The last striker that came through our Academy and got a regular game was Gerry Creaney and that was over 30 years ago.


5.) 24 Oct 2023 19:23:29
Would Shaun Maloney count because he came to Celtic as a 16 year old?


6.) 24 Oct 2023 19:27:32
It’s so easy to get a new player in compared to moving a player on . Every club that are normally active in transfer windows have players they don’t want .


 

 

23 Oct 2023 15:52:28
Craig Gordon was not a fan favourite towards the end of contract, it is regretful as was still a good goalie. Barkas was not an upgrade.
What do you think if Joe Hart gets a new contract? I cannot imagine he would be happy being back up. Time catches up and maybe got 18 months left in him. The goalie from Madrid I would imagine is a non starter. Who should we go for?

Keezo1

1.) 23 Oct 2023 16:49:05
I read the Real Madrid backup keeper is on £45K a week.
Celtic might need to start paying those wages if we want to compete properly in Europe.


2.) 23 Oct 2023 17:31:45
Just seen they’ve priced Butland at 5 million, I’d go for him but it ain’t happening but ??.


3.) 23 Oct 2023 17:46:03
€45k per week should be manageable.

Surely Kyogo n Co are on that?


4.) 23 Oct 2023 18:11:05
Ken,
It’s actually €54K a week which is about £47K a week.

It’s been mentioned that Sevco pay Butland £42K a week.
I think Calmac is our highest paid player on £32K a week.


5.) 23 Oct 2023 18:44:04
If Celtic are going to do better in Europe, the last thing they should consider is wages . The amount we spend on buying player and the size of which wages are far less important and far less of a guide to player’s ability . I would imagine for £45,000 per week we would expect a goalkeeper performing exceptionally well shot saving and playing ball out from back . Not a back -up no matter what club.


6.) 24 Oct 2023 01:42:24
Angus Gunn ?.


7.) 24 Oct 2023 01:45:31
I don't think there is any chance Lunin is coming to Celtic.


8.) 24 Oct 2023 07:16:32
Can't believe you are talking about wages like that, in times like these.


9.) 24 Oct 2023 09:05:32
I agree aindoh that Celtic won’t pay those wages.
That’s why we didn’t go for the Croatian keeper.

I can’t see Celtic paying 50% more wages than Calmac, who is the highest earner at our club.

Our players have given everything in Europe, for the last 10 years without much success but it’s because we won’t pay the wages for players, who can make a difference at that level.

It’s not just a coincidence why we haven’t won a European Knockout match, since defeating Barcelona 20 years ago.


10.) 24 Oct 2023 11:12:55
We missed a trick with gunn.


11.) 24 Oct 2023 14:31:28
Wages don’t win matches. If we look back over the last 20 yrs there were times when we had what appeared to be a competitive squad for Europe. Sometimes when we had the squad our manager adopted too loose and open style of football . Other matches were lost by freak mistakes and lack of concentration.

Looking forward from the way the club and team has progressed over last number of yrs, I can see SPL to easy for us. We are already 10/ 11 and 5 recent trebles. If we buy the players some are advocating, we will be too far ahead and yet may not improve in Europe as our team may not be challenged in SPL and their carefree attitude resulting in Celtic performing poorly in Europe. With the difference in squad abilities and financial situations, Celtic are far too good for Scottish football.


12.) 24 Oct 2023 21:16:27
The mob across the road just got to a European final and dare I say it probably should have one that game with wages similar to ours, there are teams who always put up a decent fight in European football with way less wages than us. It can be done without breaking the bank.

{Ed007's Note - TRIFC received circa £18 million from UEFA when the reached the EL Final in 2022 - circa £30 million all in with tickets etc - their wage bill for the same year was £55 million and they made a profit of £5.9 million, £4.5 million of that came from Aston Villa's compensation for Gerrard and his team & the £10 million Paterson to Everton fee. Without those 2 factors they would have made a loss.
It might not break the bank but it can get pretty damn close when you remember that TRIFC made an operating loss of circa £28 million the previous year.}


13.) 24 Oct 2023 21:29:34
I really think the problem we have when it comes to wages is we have a massive squad and too many players not making a positive contribution on the pitch. For instance James McCarthy is picking up 1m per year and doing nothing, off the top of my head I reckon we are probably wasting around 4m or 5m a year in wages that could be getting paid to guy's that are actually contributing something on the pitch, Even if we were to be giving that to 3 top players that made an impact on the pitch at a higher level it could make all the difference.

{Ed007's Note - I agree with you, I have no problem with our overall wage bill but we could spend it wiser. There's no reason at all that Celtic couldn't trim the squad and pay 1 or 2 players around the £50k a week mark without it making any difference to the wages bill. And all the talk about it upsetting the dressing room is complete bollocks, why is the likes of Ralston or Greg Taylor not moaning about CalMac's wages or even Abada who is supposedly on more than both of them?
Football doesn't work like that.
McCarthy is supposedly only on £12k-£15k a week but it's bumped up to the £22k-£25k if he actually plays.}


14.) 24 Oct 2023 21:39:01
I wasn't referring to them breaking the bank ed007 I was referring to us, we can operate at that level no problem.

{Ed007's Note - I definitely would agree that, sorry I picked you up wrong but it does show that even getting to one of the "smaller" Euro finals doesn't guarantee a windfall that we would think - fair play to TRIFC for doing it to be fair.}


 

 

19 Aug 2023 12:54:35
I have taken a close 2-1 for the game tomo. Injuries seem to be hamering us at moment. Only thing I could not add was 2 O'Reilly Assists.

I will be also keeping an eye on how the old manager is doing this season in the pub league as think they are a sleeping giant. Mind you, been a very deep sleep.

07 Mar 2023 08:52:11
Do we think that any of our players on loan have a chance when they come back? I am thinking Jonny Kenny and maybe the goalie Tobi O. Could Paul give us an update on the players playing in Ireland?

Keezo1

1.) 07 Mar 2023 10:08:32
I can't see Ajeti, Barkas, Soro, Shaw, Uroghide or Scales having a future or Kenny. Maybe Mikey Johnston will get a chance? Wether he takes that chance I don't know. Need to move Bain and Hazard on and young Tobi should get that 3rd keeper spot.


2.) 07 Mar 2023 10:49:53
Seen tobi once and was very impressed, great size good with ball at his feet and good shot stopper.


3.) 07 Mar 2023 11:18:31
He's highly rated by everyone I've heard of in the game so hopefully he does get a chance in the 1st team. Anyone know when his contract is up because if there is no pathway into the first team next year he might be thinking about moving on?

Reason I think Lunin is a non starter since first mooted last summer is that he gets cup games. Also I imagine he is on a fair whack of money. We may well start next season with Scott Bain who I would rather we went with than sign Gunn. I expect a goalie that we have never heard of.

OldKilly have you been to the Celtic Story? That is where I was reminded of this.

Also I found out there that supposedly Patsy and John Thomson were lined up for an Arsenal transfer before the tragic accident. Patsy subsequently turned down the transfer.

I love finding out wee bits of history of our club.

The Korean and Japanese guys that have come in after Kyogo and Meada have been hit and miss with mainly miss. I suspected they might struggle and we put our egges in 1 basket, It has not worked.

Yang, Kwon, Koybiashi not good enough
Philips, not good enough.
Hart until today I did not think crtism of him was just but he is getting on.
Scales needs a rest, Taylor needs an upgrade. We had no game changers on bench.
After selling a lot of good players since losing GG, Jota, Mooy, Starfelt and Juranovic we have only upgraded on Juranovic.

Na they are not special. They are great at creating atmosphere and getting the club fines. Great at embarrassing the majority of fans. 'Modern fans' as you call them need to realise there is a line. Leave being an embarrassment to the Sevco fans.
