Did haskabanovic turn down paok as we agreed a few of 1.7 million for him then we loaned him? We had the chance to recoup our initial outlay ?‍♂️.

If he does well we might make more.

Rumours breaking last night on Twitter that we are still keen on the Croatian keeper who after a week, still hasn’t signed for Fenerbahce. App we are looking at a larger up front fee for him. Personally I’d welcome this even though Joe has been great for the team and squad for the last two years, I feel his better saves are becoming less regular as he’s ageing .

On the back of rocki signing get him in.


2.) 26 Jul 2023 14:50:14
Other reports say we aren't interested.


3.) 26 Jul 2023 15:09:43
I've read that but don't understand what the point would be in us offering them a bigger up-front fee if they've already accepted a bid from Fenerbahce.

Would love this goalie, but can’t see it.

A new name has landed at second favourite with the bookies, with photos of him at Glasgow airport.
Des Buckingham, the manager of the giants who are Mumbai . Surely this has to be a joke.

Quinn1888

1.) 07 Jun 2023 15:45:50
Literally just looked him up Quinn. No thanks. Even more leftfield than Ange was.


2.) 07 Jun 2023 15:55:38
Compared to the giants that are Yokohama F. Marinos?


3.) 07 Jun 2023 15:57:48
Maybe Kennedy replacement! the city group seem to have a big part to play in celtic.


4.) 07 Jun 2023 15:59:51
Apparently won their league with a record points and goal tally I heard. Very high risk but it wouldn't break the bank which is the board all over. A lot more of these cropping up that ain't very overwhelming.


5.) 07 Jun 2023 16:00:41
Surely that can’t be true, ange was unheard of by most but if you looked him up he had years of experience, including as a national team manager . This lad has barely been an assistant and had a season in Mumbai . With all the managers available surely this can’t be the best we could do if true.
We were supposed to have 30 million to spend to bring is up another level, could you imagine the club doing that with him.


6.) 07 Jun 2023 16:43:22
It better not be total embarrassment.


7.) 07 Jun 2023 16:47:08
Assistant! .


8.) 07 Jun 2023 17:18:54
My brother is saying he is being considered as assistant to marresca.


9.) 07 Jun 2023 17:19:25
Would imagine if he’s in Glasgow for talks would be for assistant. Makes me feel like maresca will be manager and someone will come in as director of football. The city group link grows. Don’t know why we would be speaking to him for assistant before we appoint a manager….

{Ed007's Note - It's being reported he is in Glasgow to visit friends and it's nothing to do with any job at Celtic.}


10.) 07 Jun 2023 17:21:20
If Man Unt'd had went for Fergie, before he went to Aberdeen, I wonder how that would have turned out.


11.) 07 Jun 2023 17:41:42
Thanks for the update Ed. Hope you’re coping with all the rumours going around.

{Ed007's Note - It's still pretty tame & sane - well apart from the Phil Neville one ? - but I think it's going to be a busy summer and it's great to see some new posters on the forum, welcome aboard to you all ??


12.) 07 Jun 2023 18:12:12
Here's a good one for you @Ed007, Alan Thompson is suggesting Henrik Larsson.

Wee Joe Larsson must be a free transfer again this season surely ed? so perfect double act.

{Ed007's Note - Jordan Larsson has 2 years to go on his deal at Schalke 04 but he's been on loan at FC Copenhagen.
Moussa Demeble is available on a free.}

If kyogo went I would take big moussa back.


 

 

10 Jan 2022 14:21:42
With the news filtering through that the Aussie has signed, now we are reporting that a bid for an Iranian forward has been rebuffed, but we are going back in for him .
Point 1 is where are we going to fit in al these forward thinking players
Point 2 is who are we selling to level the spending up a bit?

Quinn1888

1.) 10 Jan 2022 14:48:13
I was thinking the same. Doesn't look good for us signing Jota permanently IMO.


2.) 10 Jan 2022 15:25:56
These players are costing nothing compared to the outlay for Jota and CCV -
If we move 3 or 4 players out, our net spend will be less than £10 Million.


3.) 10 Jan 2022 15:35:00
They're different players there's no huge outlay and we have been cursed all season with Injuries, better having too many as not enough.


4.) 10 Jan 2022 15:56:52
It's worth remembering the size of the squad rebuild that Ange faced in the summer and I'm delighted he's wasted no time in continuing this.

The J-League bhoys combined cost was less than 2.5M.

Barkas, Bolingoli, Soro, Ajeti will hopefully be moved on soon. Tunrbull is out for the foreseeable and for months we've been saying how poor the bench is.

I've also read that we were close to completing a deal for Jota - hopefully that goes through.

☘ ? ☘ ? ☘.


5.) 10 Jan 2022 16:12:20
I totally agree mally as we have been crippled with injuries, just not sure where they are all going to fit in. I don’t think we are signing these as we aren’t getting jota by the way, maybe ange is seeing a couple of the Japanese lads might need a bit of time to settle in and was potentially easing them in for next season.
Either way hopefully when qualifiers come around we won’t be searching around for players as most have been signed this season.


6.) 10 Jan 2022 15:45:55
Jota will sign. What player have we signed that can play Jota position.


7.) 10 Jan 2022 16:32:31
We don't really work on net spend we work on amortization. With everyone we have at the moment our annual amortization sits at £14.5m APPROX. If we get rid of Soro, Ajeti, Barkas and Boli. We reduce this by £3.4m per season. Interestingly with Jullien entering the final year of his contract we would reduce this by a further 1.5m if he resigns.

Given the historical accounts we seem happy with the amortization figure being between 13-15.5m per season. So if needed i think we still have a few quid we could spend.


8.) 10 Jan 2022 16:33:29
I should have mentioned the £14.5m figure incorporates Jota, CCV and McGree as permanent transfers.


9.) 10 Jan 2022 16:48:24
I honestly think they are planing life without Forrest and going to bin Mikey Johnstone nobody is safe no matter how long you've been at the club Ange clearly wants players that can step up and be called on right now Forrest and Johnstone are bringing nothing to the table right now in the way of injury prone or just under performing it's not got anything to do with not signing Jota on a permanent basis Ange wants his own lads in.


10.) 10 Jan 2022 17:25:02
I really hope we can and will get Jota and CCV on permanent contracts. And we do have something like 35 players now if that happens but there is a few that shouldn't be at the club and I hope we can shift them out in this window.


11.) 10 Jan 2022 18:24:04
I don’t really think we could bin Forrest AND Johnston. We need 4 homegrown and 4 association players in our 25 man Euro squad or we lose a place.

At moment we have

Welsh - if we don’t sell currently qualifies as B squad but won’t next year
Ralston
McGregor
Johnston
Forrest

Association

Bain - who arguably time may be up
Taylor
McCarthy
Turnbull

So we’re pretty thin on the homegrown players. And from the looks not sure if we have anyone ready to make the big step in the B team and don’t think there much association talent within our reach. I thought Hickey may have been a good answer but way out our price range now.


12.) 11 Jan 2022 00:17:01
Tbhoy - another reason to bring Ferguson in? Lad would add a bit of steel to the midfield.


13.) 11 Jan 2022 07:03:30
We fit some in 1st half and some in second half. allowing us to play fast pace for 90 mins

Nearly every game i've watched we've blasted teams for at least 30 mins in 1st half with not much goal penetration, exception hibs away. we seem to naturally take a dip in levels during game also.

If these players can do whst ange wants then we have a bench capable of coming on and frightening teams when 1st 11 is hitting the natural dip in energy levels. not to mention cover for the injuries our intensity of play can cause.


14.) 11 Jan 2022 13:40:01
I think McGree if he comes will add steel and pace to our midfield, we don't need Ferguson imo.


 

 

31 Aug 2021 23:32:33
Ali McCann has signed for Preston for just over a million pounds, strange we never went in for him for that sort of fee .

Given the abuse NL got I doubt we will ever be attractive to high profile NI players.

Two terrible teams going for the title this year, let’s be honest it’s a different narrative from the press regarding sevco, but they aren’t exactly hammering teams with some lovely brand of football. Just arm the press aren’t highlighting it as they never do and their fans are behind them so they are playing without pressure. We know they fold if we can turn around the pressure onto them. But like I say both teams are poor.

Quinn1888

 

 

01 Feb 2024 06:56:45
I can’t wait to hear that January is a tough month to bring players in, we were close on a couple of really good players but the selling club changed their minds at the last minute, but we are already working towards the summer market and have started to put work in behind the scenes .

Quinn1888

1.) 01 Feb 2024 10:17:01
Brendan already towing the party line with his comments.


 

 

31 Jan 2024 12:22:40
I really can’t work out how we went from supposedly offering ange our biggest transfer pot to keep him to borrowing a Norwich reserve forward .
We were probably one season and three decent signings from being a really good side that could have competed in europe ( Europa level) to a side that has been allowed to regress to a pale shadow of what it was 6 months previous. Rogers can be to blame for some of the football played, yes but he has already stated the players signed in the summer were already far down the line of signing, if he comes out and says Kuhn and idah are his signings he can be judged on that . But really this again falls on the board, and the transfer team we have supporting the manager .

Quinn1888

1.) 31 Jan 2024 12:39:51
I can remember it being mentioned last year, that Celtic would be better prepared for our CL campaign this season.
This season has been nothing short of Sabotage.


2.) 31 Jan 2024 12:44:36
Hope its the board that get any abuse and not the boy idah.


3.) 31 Jan 2024 12:45:09
Idah in onloanno buy option meanwhile hoydonk to Norwich on loan with an option. me neither.


4.) 31 Jan 2024 12:50:58
I posted something similar DRB but it’s not appeared yet.


 

 

30 Jan 2024 21:08:47
Adam idah, no one saw that coming. A player not good enough for Norwich, who are looking to replace him with van hoojdonk, and we are signing him supposedly with an offer to buy . Goes from bad to worse.

Quinn1888

1.) 30 Jan 2024 21:23:17
Celtic recruitment - look guys we have been travelling the globe scouting everyone who is worth scouting.

After pouring through our vast amounts of data we have identified the best possible target. Welcome Adam idah. ?

I would have preferred no one to him.


2.) 30 Jan 2024 21:37:06
Can’t wait now to see who the left back is we could potentially bring in ?.


3.) 30 Jan 2024 21:54:46
Strap yourselves in folks there could be some turbulence.


4.) 30 Jan 2024 22:01:05
@Quinn1888 . it'll be wee Hamish McHaggis, an outstanding left back for Sanquhar Albion Utd.
44 year old with a heart condition but a guy with huge enthusiasm.
That's the 'quality' Rodgers was talking about when he came back. HH.


5.) 30 Jan 2024 22:05:15
Johnny hayes at left back ?.


 

 

29 Jan 2024 15:36:47
Is it just me that thinks this board believe they know better than everyone, inc the manager as to what we need. This season reminds me so much of the ten season, where we can see it going wrong and no one does anything about it.
The more the fans are screaming for new signings it seems the board are digging their heels in more . They treat the fans with contempt regularly, even to the point where we got less games this season with our season ticket, charged for the C.V. season when we couldn’t attend . We are seen as an insignificance that pays for the pleasure. I have zero confidence we are bringing in any players before the window, which is a massive gamble. Also I’m not writing off Kuhn yet but why have we signed another winger who doesn’t want to go on the outside of a defender and get a cross in from the bye line? One of jotas big assets was he could go either way and it made our play so much quicker, walking the ball up to a defender then cutting into traffic and passing it back to defence or a sideways pass to midfield just allows teams more time to get more behind the ball.

Quinn1888

1.) 29 Jan 2024 17:08:30
I agree that our Board have zero rapport or empathy with our support and reckon they are untouchable and maybe even infallible.

I’d like to see lagerbielke ad well, unfortunately it will be Welsh, feel for him really . Blocked his move in January and then processed to drop him out of squads, all the time when he hasn’t been that bad for us, apart from the euro game where he was sent off.

Hopefully the team give him the send off he deserves with a double. He was a massive player for us over the last few seasons, whilst not claiming he’s the best keeper we have ever had, his commitment and drive for the team cannot be underestimated .
To come to Scotland and take a massive wage hit and be away from his family was a great sacrifice .
He is a massive leader in the team, one which will need to be replaced, which won’t be easy .

Just read on Twitter he jacked due to the constraints he had to work under. No player over 5 million, must be under 23, must have less than 40 games and so on.
Probably rubbish but if so, we aren’t pushing for established quality. In saying that I would have took a couple of 5 million pound players this January .

I read that as well mally, I can’t see it though and hope it isn’t true. I’m not slating his quality, but I don’t think his ego would fit into the changing room. You see there is a bond between quite a few of the players, always out together, on holiday together etc. going by his posts where he’s dancing around being the showman, instagram dances etc I don’t think that will fit in with them.

I can’t imagine McGregor in the changing room watching him shuffle across the room and thinking what have we got here. I can’t see this one happening.
Maybe to the other side will as they love a dancer from instagram.

Don’t get me wrong lads, I know we won’t have heard of loads of these players but I again my point is that we probably need to go to a higher level of funding just to ensure we get a better quality player. Apart from mor above the others were all rated over 5 million pounds. For all the mor we find we have wasted loads on others which I’d say far outweighs the good ones we have found. I know it doesn’t always work out both ways either, just look at Lagerbielke for instance, probably no one had heard of him. A full international young, defender of the year in his league, you couldn’t call him a project and yet the management team want him out . for the price bracket we potentially could be shopping in we still aren’t going to get established players from German English Spanish sides so we probably aren’t going to have heard from them, just feel there’s a better success rate with a slightly higher transfer fee option.

Yeah big ange put a stop to them straight away, if we do manage to go on to win the league it looks like we will have a qualifying match . I’d rather prepare for that, this looks like the old idea that lawell used to have us do every season . Take a few million guaranteed around the world then miss out on the big money. Small time mentality.

We are both poor sides this year to be honest, although don’t buy into the Sevconian pr that they are world beaters . Far from it, Celtic fans have been saying we don’t deserve to win the league, while we forget rangers have lost 5 games. Hardly championship winning form . They went out of Europe during the week and the press and fans made it was a glorious attempt, and now time to concentrate on the treble . If it was us going out of Europe they would be hounding us.
With a few players back, we can easily go there without fear and take the title out of their clasp.

I think the Sevconian had a good idea tapping up a Dutch talent spotter, i think we should follow that route if we are looking to tap into markets we don’t normally get into.

I’ll be honest, I don’t rate ralston but you can never slate him over his commitment, we wouldn’t have got that win last night without him so I deserve to cut him some slack . Over the last few seasons he has came up with moments in games that have had a great effect on the seasons. Credit where it’s due, he is living the dream . Bravo brickie.
