Use our rumours form to send us celtic transfer rumours.

11 Jan 2021 21:59:20
It's over now I hope I wake up to Lawell, Hammond, Lennon and Kennedy resignations. Lawell should be sacked for the Dubai trip alone. None of the aforementioned can have any credibility again if they remain. A draw at Parkhead while the first team isolate. I hope the pints were worth it. Gross negligence and arrogance and contempt for the fans coupled with mismanagement on and off the field at every level has cost us. We bankrolled the dream and you let it die. The Green Brigade told you that you were gambling with the 10. You lost tonight asleep at the wheel. Disgrace. The reincarnated Rangers were coming. Mr Desmond deal with it tomorrow or you'll be whistling for 50,000 season tickets and 10,000 on the waiting list next season.

Well said.

Agree2 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 22:11:07
Don't disagree JFP, from the board through the coaching staff to several of the players - disgraceful.

The clear out should start tomorrow.

Agree2 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 22:11:22
Totally agree JFP. If any club had a chance to do a 10 ina row, no one would have collapsed like we did this year. Lawell, Kennedy and Lennon have been an absolute disgrace to our club this season. The Sevconians aren't even a good team but we let them come closer to us by appointing Lennon as our manager.

Agree3 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 22:17:27
But yet we all know nothing will change. All those will still be there at the end of the season. Shocking!

Agree1 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 22:17:46
Its done JFP. Without doubt.

Any player wanting to go in the summer may as well go now. There will be enough leftover who want to be here to secure second in the league.

The rebuild should start now.

Lennon is not the man for the rebuild.

The board cannot dither on this as getting a new manager in place now, allows us to prepare for CL qualifiers rather than wait until June.

Who would want the job? I have no idea.

Agree1 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 22:18:22
That’s the second time for me to be on the brink of the 10. I don’t think I’ll live to get a chance at a 3rd one. It’s over now, So Sad to be let down by our own lack of foresight.

Agree1 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 22:23:36
Malika I won’t now see 10 either.

Agree0 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 22:26:56
I don’t think anyone could imagine how much of a disaster this season has been from the very start.
Players coming back from lockdown not fit and a few new signings were the same.
Between Bolingoli and having to rearrange league games because the Scottish cup ties were scheduled on the same weekend as our league fixtures.
Which meant Celtic were playing catch up since August.
Then Lennon playing midfielders up front which caused us to get knocked out of the CL.
The rant which followed our exit from Lennon was a worry and that’s how it played out. Players were obviously not playing for the manager.
Then we were unlucky with C. V going into our Derby game.
Lennon changing formations 5 times between 4-2-3-1 and 3-5-2 and then waiting until December 23rd to play 4 defenders and 2 strikers. Too Late.
Continually can’t defend set pieces. Celtic have conceded over 20 goals from set pieces alone and we’re only at the start of January.
And then when we thought things couldn’t get any worse,
The whole Dubai fiasco unfolded, which made the club look foolish.
I’m sure there’s plenty more I’ve missed out. We could write a book.
The fat lady is making her way on to the stage to sing.

Agree1 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 22:30:27
Also answers the question of a new contract for Brown, absolutely not. No more looking back, need plans to go forward.

Agree0 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 22:34:12
I’m sure that fool Lennon will still say the league is not over. 10 in a row was always going to fail with him in charge, so many fans called it on day 1 and got stick for it.

Totally sickened that Dave King’s folded like a pack of cards statement has come to fruition.

Agree1 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 22:58:41
Agree JFP, damage has been done through most of season, but now they must go and punt every prima donna who doesn't want to be here, play the kids, they can't really do much worse than the so called superstars of our team.

Agree1 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 23:23:53
Lawell would never resign the guy would never even acknowledge he’d make a mistake and let’s face it who’s going to sack him? We need drastic change but we won’t get it.

Agree0 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 23:24:08
I'm gutted that I have now missed out on 10 in a row twice too. There should be a total clear out from the top to the bottom. The football has been rotten and them from across the city should have been made to work for it .

Agree0 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 23:33:42
Me too Malika. but between them how many times have we got into a position on top and ahead of the rest only for successive boards to throw it away due to mismanagement downsourcing and negligence.

Agree0 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 23:46:28
Clear out should start tomorrow. Doubt Lawwell will be away before end of season but would be good idea if Desmond stepped in and took reigns till a new CEO is identified.

The buck stops with Lawwell. His arrogance that sevco wouldn't stop 10iar has backfired on an epic scale. There's no way we will catch them now and also no way Lawwell can be in charge any longer.

Coaching staff should resign or be sacked if they don't and a new manager brought into assess squad for next season.

Good opportunity to get shot of players who have let us down this season as well. Would rather give more youth players a chance than see likes of Edouard, Christie or Ntcham ever play for us again.

Agree0 Disagree0

12 Jan 2021 10:15:37
Nothing will happen because they don't care. we will have to wait for the end of the season for any action. just hope the points difference doesn't get any worse.

Agree0 Disagree0

12 Jan 2021 01:48:46
Can I honestly say before I go on that I love celtic and everyrhing about them . This year has been hell for so many ordinary people and for those from an even more poor background. I've never questioned and always applauded the history and work Celtic have done for the poorer community and those who struggle in the past . I cannot for trying understand how this management team and the ones in charge got things so wrong, was it by design? I don't beleive so although I've read the rumours about We Need A Strong Rangers . I ask honestly if anyone has ever seen a winning team collapse and make such a mockery off their fans in 1 year? This club isn't the same club as last year or the year before . Call me all sorts if you want but I can see us not qualifying for champions league this year, things are that bad and nothing us going to change this over night. Things are rotten from the top down and needs changed quickly and I mean it could take 3 or 4 year to get there, im not a pessimist im saying how it is, God I hope im wrong . What has happened to my club.

Struggled with set pieces all season jyst can't defend. The keeper at fault and Duffy should do better. hibestly this is thecseadon from hell.
We need a red out and starting in the boardroom.

Believable1 Unbelievable0

11 Jan 2021 22:47:07
Is there no way we can end Duffy's loan deal, he is a good hearted player but he is just not a good footballer.
And there should be no way we should sign Laxalt on a permanent deal, he is not bad going forward but he is a liability, giving away needless free kicks, when he is trying to defend.
And whoever was responsible for not offering Graig Gordon an increase on his old deal, should be sacked.
And whoever is responsible for picking Scott Brown, ditto.
And whoever is responsible for coaching the defence in set piece situations, ditto.
And whoever had the nay or yay, about going to Dubai, ditto.

Agree1 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 21:56:35
For me that's the league officially over, I hope I'm wrong but can't see it going any other way.

I think its time to get the new manager in now as to be fair he couldn't be tarnished with losing the 10. It would also be a free hit until the end of the season and allow them to assess the squad and see what's needed for the euro qualification and the title challenge next year.

Any player who wants away should be sold if possible now to get funds ready for the new season and identifying players should also be underway.

The remainder of the season should be used to blood the younger players and see who has what's needed to step up for next year. Ideally this would allow the squad and wage bill to be cut allowing for more quality than quantity signings and reasonable squad of 20ish possible first team players.

Was going to say Duffy, Welsh, Laxalt and Hazard were all solid tonight then Laxalts daft free kick, Hazards flap and Duffys meek clearance cost us 3 points 🙄 Great goal from Turnbull but have to admit defeat now if the league wasn't lost already it definitely is now.

Believable4 Unbelievable0

11 Jan 2021 21:48:07
Unable to defend set pieces.

Agree2 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 21:50:07
Was never confident of seeing this out. Soro and Turnbull miles ahead of rest. Big Tam is 100% done. Time for clear out, starting from the top. Hazard is just a boy and has no protection and should not be playing at this stage of his career, feel for him.

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - David de Gea made his Man Utd debut 10 years ago this year when he was 20, Hazard is 23 in 2 months time - older than Forster when we signed him and a year (maybe 18 months?) older than Boruc when we signed them on loan.}

11 Jan 2021 22:03:58
Hazzard not a safe pair of hands at any age.

By God there is a serious clearout needed at CP and I'd start now, in this window.

Agree1 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 22:04:04
Let’s call it like it is, i mean no harm to the boy but hazard isn’t good enough end of.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - I might be wrong about Boruc I was in the middle of fighting with a dog about a spider on the wall when I looked their ages up but it's the same age group.}

11 Jan 2021 22:05:27
Laxalt in particular conceding these free-kicks has cost us goals from that very same position in far too many games.
We had defended about nine corners successfully up until then and as you say the defending had been pretty solid; but there you go.
I said in the first half we would need a set-piece to score and it would have been a great winner - considering all the goings-on.
The damage was done long before tonight and I only wish those responsible would vacate the premises and let us start afresh or else we will have a serious deja vu in the summer and beyond.
When your world has virtually collapsed round about you with rigid restrictions, extended periods of absent close family members and nothing but lectures on a loop, media inflamed fear and worry; it was always nice to have Celtic as a welcome uplifting distraction, until this season went from bad to worse, to total implosion.
Tony Mowbray, Ronny Deila and even John Barnes have all been sacked for much less than this fiasco. Peter Lawell and your choice of management team need to do the decent thing NOW.

Agree1 Disagree0

12 Jan 2021 00:56:20
It's not the fact we are terrible at defending set pieces it's the sheer amount we have to defend that's the problem. We concede way too many dangerous free kicks or needless corners by scuffed clearances it's only a matter of time before they get one right. Lennon would never be sacked because he's Lawwells puppet and he "helped us in time of need" so they're either staying loyal to him for that or too ashamed to admit they got it wrong by offering him the job on the sly in the showers after we fluked the cup final.

Dreadful goalkeeping for Hibs goal.

Agree2 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 21:43:02
Hazard was the same in that cup final prior to the penalties. Celtic have no one but themselves to blame and lawwell and whoever sanctioned that trip should go now.

Agree1 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 21:43:26
True, but prior to it he had made some decent saves.

Agree0 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 21:50:44
he was very good up until then but it was shocker right enough.

Agree0 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 21:52:42
decent saves, they were all straight at him. he never caught one. he is never a celtic goalkeeper in 100 years.

Agree1 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 21:54:42
Yep, he had a part to play but Laxalt dived in and was lucky a few mins earlier when he done the same. £7m for him, aye right you are. Blame lies solely on PL shoulders, he gets paid the big bucks to run the club and has failed miserably not just this week but for 18 months.

Agree1 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 22:55:55
The problem is good teams don't mind giving away the odd free kick trying to nick the ball. Its the fact we can't defend them that costs us. The amount we have lost from crossed balls and free kicks/ corners this season is bordering on gross negligence.

Agree0 Disagree0

12 Jan 2021 00:01:21
That Hibs goalie was ok, any chance of getting him on loan next season.

your right mally its disgusting him smirking all the way through that when its something so serious i don't know how he gets away with it.

Agree1 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 21:22:16
I think we have got more serious problems than working about BFKB. Just want this season over so we can rebuild.

Agree2 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 21:51:08
Was thinking the same thing Philtim but why wait until the season is over before starting to rebuild? I would have no problems with them calling the season now and awarding the title to Rangers. Anyway even if the season is played to a conclusion I hope some of these youngsters are given serious game time in the second half of the season to perhapsa prepare them for the starting eleven next season. I honestly don't think they can do any worse than our superstars.

Agree0 Disagree0

Am I the only one wondering why some that were in Dubai can play tonight and others that were there cant.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Stevie
I think if your under 2 metres for at least 15 minutes next to Jullian.
Then you’d need to self isolate.
It seems to be a high number considering Jullian is injured.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - Why are you not on the live chat, Sheldon?}

11 Jan 2021 21:49:53
Does that mean the boys that were playing tonight dinnae like Julians patter and didnae spend more than 10 mins in his company?

Agree1 Disagree0

11 Jan 2021 19:32:14
It’s crazy to think that All of the 6 forwards who’ve played up front for Celtic this season have all to self isolate at the same time.
The 4 strikers plus Christie and Elyounoussi.

hope that's the end of it then and not another own goal by us anyway the big man for first goal at 18s.

Duffy broke elite bubble flying back on normal flight. broke C.V. rules. we have made another shambolic decision. they will throw the book at us.

This is a day and a half. They better be ok to play Duffy, if that can ever he ok, or we will get hammered from all sides. And deserve to if they make an arse of the rules.

Anyway, come on the young team. Fight like. A defeat would be the tin hat of all tin hats.

Feel even more of an idiot for posts regarding c. v and Dubai. League was over for me yesterday with Sevco winning away to Aberdeen, this fiasco regarding 13 players having to isolate is final nail in coffin for me.

This season has been worst i can remember since 1994. Surely Lawwell can not survive this. It has been an absolute embarrassment from the top right down to the attitude of some players.

My team for tonight with the players rumoured to be available.
Bain
Frimpong. Welsh. Elhamad. Taylor
Christie McGregor
Johnstone Rogic Elyounoussi
Klimala

It's a 4-2-3-1 but we could stick to the diamond by putting Johnstone or Christie up front with Klimala.
Young Henderson is another option for midfield and it was mentioned that Duffy could be available.
I would like to see young American striker Cameron Harper get on the field at some stage tonight.

Ryan Mullen is 19 but he might be still injured because Cove Rangers sent him back to Celtic after picking up a bad injury in October.
Celtic also have a 17 year old goalkeeper who signed a 3 year deal from the Spurs Academy.

The latest fiasco at our club isn't just down to Lennon. But since he has stepped foot back into our club the standards have went downhill. Players off for a piss up before auldfirm. Treatment of certain players, fitness levels and now this. Now remember he would have had input on this trip if it was a good idea or not. If you think he didn't have any input then you're clueless.

The guys running our club know how to run a business and are good at it but the football side? They haven't got a clue!

And don't Gez this @ive never known hard times". We have a wage budget that is more than 10 teams put together out of a 12 team league. And 4 out of the last 10yrs it was more than every club put together! That's the reason we be been successful last decade.

I'm not religious so the can shove their faithful through and through p**h right up their bum hole. Not getting another penny from me while we re run like a 80s club.

Ryan the buck stops with Peter Lawell. I wouldn’t ask the fans to do it but you won’t be alone in deciding you won’t part with any more cash until you see change. Not because of this season and recent debacle only but I’ve felt a bit estranged from the club in recent years in terms of its political correctness, arrogance, contempt for the fans and extent it appears to have forgotten its roots so I might consider whether to renew season ticket myself next season.

I know it looks like I’m just blaming Lennon, I’m honestly not. I know the old pals act is back with lawell and Lennon. And I know it’s hard to criticise after the success we ve had.

One of the biggest seasons in our history and just look at it. Middle of a C.V., how many points behind? And they go off to the sun for couple of days. Peoole can’t see their loved ones and them at our club think aye let’s jump to Dubai have a pint in the sun.

I’ll alway support Celtic but I grew up from all that tribal s***e a long time ago.

No more statements Celtic please you're just making it more embarrassing. When you're in a hole stop digging. If you need to say anything else you could start with an apology to the fans who bankrolled the dream you let die. Then follow that with resignation letters from Peter Lawell, Nick Hammond, Neil Lennon and John Kennedy.

Anyway it will be interesting to see the team selection and dugout tonight. Anything less than three points and we'd be as well selling the prize assets that want away if their are buyers and see the season out with what's left augmented by youth or academy players to give them a run.

This C.V. is changing every day and common sense within the club should’ve prevailed and that shambles of a trip cancelled. They’d have been better thought of. In any other line of employment such negligent behaviour and heads would roll, but rather than come out and apologise especially to the fans they try justify it?

Because of the way this C.V. spreads . tommorrow or in the following days more players could be positive and possibly have spread to hibs . the arrogance and stupidity of the dubai trip could be overtaken by allowing this game to take place . we know there where breaches of rules in Dubai and on the flights .

If anything positive comes out of this hopefully it will be lawell and lennon gone at the end of the season if not before. But knowing how arrogant he is I’m not even confident they won’t still be here next year.

The standards at Celtic have drastically slipped, we had the easy road for too long and haven't capitalised on improving the team, and how we can still field a team putting Hibs players at risk is actually an embarrassment in itself.

Wasnt too long ago NL was asking that all international friendlies by cancelled due to unnecessary travel and C.V. risks. How on earth anyone thought this was wise is beyond me.

but they gave us permission to go and now completely slate and hammer us for going bring a new rule in today which starts TODAY but use the day wee ARRIVED in dubai as the day it starts from.

so i am going to allow you to go some were then completely slag you off for it then i will bring a new rule in when you are back starting from 3 days after you arrived back but also staring from when youse arrived in the place i allowed youse to go to.

it is what it is wee still play tonight. but sturgeon has done a complete hatchet job on us. if she was so concerned about travel she would have says no don't go instead of them saying its okay then open a complete hatchet job on us when we are back.

I'm honestly baffled.

Why do we have a player who is injured for 5 months on a winter "training" camp.

I genuinely thought the photos in the press were from last years training camp with some sevconian at it as everyone can clearly see that social distancing is non existent at least if they were going for a pint they could have done it 2 metres apart.

Of course if someone's tested positive virtually everyone has to isolate how do you socially distance in a confined space such as an aircraft. (Which would have been a private charter) with an inclusive air ventilation system with an airborne C.V.

But why did we put ourselves in that position? The self destruct button hasn't just been pressed this season it's been jumped on repeatedly.

I remember when the old club were going for 10 in a row. They fought to the death for the glory. I can take us losing it like that. I can't take the way we have simply thrown it away.

Still trying to justify the trip.
Everyone knew the strict rules were getting implemented on January 4th in Scotland.
To mention the rules weren’t in place on the 2nd when they went to Dubai,
Is a poor excuse.
Plenty of people booked festive holidays in November but it doesn’t mean they were allowed to go.

11 Jan 2021 13:17:22
We all seen the pictures of them “relaxing” Lennon and brown by the pool, the lads in the bar aswell. Let our guard down, actually left our guard in Scotland and now paying the price for it. I don’t think the pictures in the press were the only two times they didn’t follow the rules, a team dinner for example, in a private room, that would be enough to wipe them all out. It’s just a disgrace, I know it will be Lennon and Lawell who take the brunt of it, but where are the medical team, the travel organiser. Just a horrible decision to go in this current climate, opened ourselves up to it. That being said, if the other members of the squad can fill positions, and the likes of Dembele, oko flex, Harper and Henderson step up we still stand a chance and it’s forced us to give youth a chance. If we work it out, if Julian has it I’d say, Edouard, Ntcham are certainly out.

UI normally I would agree with the conspiracy theory given they have applied the rules retrospectively for the first time although I thought it was for arrivals in Scotland from Dubai after 03 January 2021. But to be honest I think from listening to the radio this morning the Government and a large section of the public and I don’t mean the tradition enemies of all things Celtic but generally reasonable people including many of our own supporters and me just feel Celtic have behaved unprofessionally and arrogantly abused their privileges afforded to elite sport when the rest of us are under house arrest. There really isn’t anyway to hide from John Kennedys ‘minor slip ups’ comments. A PR disaster.

The Celtic circus rolls on and it remains to be seen what the outcome will be take your pick none of them great. The game cancelled? Forfeited and 3-0 win awarded to Hibs? Player and close contacts forced to self isolate and game is played with an under strength team? League stopped? As a very minimum it would be nice to see the club stop trying to defend the indefensible. Even if the quarantine rules are applied retrospectively for the first time irrespective of legal position the general advice has been not to travel abroad since last summer. The board were quick to condemn the protests by fans in the middle of the global crisis but Peter Lawell appears to be keeping his head down and is conspicuous by his absence on this occasion.

Let’s get this Dubai thing in a bit of perspective. There’s a lot I won’t defend this board over, but this is getting ridiculous. The trip would have been undertaken under stringent conditions, how this looks to PR, although not great, is irrelevant. Any Celtic player, or any other footballer could test positive at any time, anywhere. This is an unseen, undiscriminating C.V. Regardless of measures club put in place, staff don’t live in house. Family members do have to go out shopping etc, that puts people in contact with unknown variables.
I’ll put my point in a better context, I work in ICU, have done for the last 18 years. We were sent home with 6 weeks worth of Lateral flow test kits, enough to test twice weekly. By 22nd December I had done 12 tests, all negative. Worked next day, on Xmas eve partner announced she could not taste or smell her breakfast. I used a test on her, it came up positive, tested myself, still negative. Went for formal PCR within an hour, result Boxing Day, both positive. I have never had any symptoms at any time.
Point being, if my other half hadn’t shown those symptoms, I would have been back in work, in ICU on Christmas Day and Boxing Day with C.V. and no obvious symtoms potentially spreading the C.V. to others. Large numbers of the population could potentially be positive of C.V. and completely unaware.
This Dubai nonsense is just the media trying find another stick to beat us and using the C.V. as an excuse.

It lies with lawell, desmond and lennon the predicament we are in. They are all culpable for the s@£&storm we are in right now. They all have massive egos, who don't give 2 hoots about anyone other than themselves. Words cannot describe how utterly stupod this trip was. For a lot of the decent stuff lawell did over the last few years, he has totally screwed up his legacy, lennon probably be the same, as will desmond. He got rodgers and oneil, buts happy to stick with lennon. I might be thick, but that doesn't make good sense from a bilionaire who runs multiple companies, to watch how far we have regressed as a club, not just a team and not do anything to shake it up.

The Scottish Government have set new guidelines for anyone who’s came back from Dubai since January 3rd.
They need to isolate for 10 days from the date they arrived back in Scotland.
Luckily for Celtic, the rule doesn’t apply to our players.
Our players are protected by their elite sports status.

A representative for the Scottish Government has now stated Celtic are not in the clear yet.
They need to decide if the Celtic trip comes under the sports elite category.
Strange considering they gave the trip the green light.
A final decision will be made by lunchtime today.

I think they will find a way of punishing the club in some way as we are public enemy number one in Scotland and a very easy target.
OK, The trip was not for a match or tournament, but has been a regular warm-weather training camp in previous seasons.
A lot will rest on the details of the 'permission slip' and whether the circumstances altered when restrictions became stricter?
In that case the club should have notified to cancel immediately, but it's also unfortunate the clubs hierarchy never took the initiative?

It appears also that a track and trace is required before we are in the clear. It will be to see who was in close contact with who ever got the positive test. Don't be surprised to see a few out tonight and maybe a few more cases over the next few days. U couldn't believe this stupidity from the club. Unreal!

Just a post apologising for rant yesterday about C.V. in dubai. Genuinely was of opinion projected in media and the fact it was possible to travel there unrestricted in regards quarantine.

Made a right ar$e of it, apologies to anyone offended.

Phil,
Last week Dubai was regarded as one of the safest places to go too.
Now that isn’t the case due to this terrible C.V.
I still think Celtic should’ve stayed and played our games in hand.
We’ve been our own worst enemy at times this season.

Celtic shouldn't have went to Dubai but this nonsense about playing catch up game's. Who were we going to play. Every club was given a week off. Rest instead of a winter break no team's to play.

It’s ok Phil I forgive u! 🤣🤣🤣 na in all seriousness mate, we are all just scunnered with this car crash of a season and it shows no sign of stopping yet! We all come on here and say stuff that makes us look foolish sometimes! I’m one of the worse 🤣🤣🤣🤣 on another note I was reading that all german football teams who every year go to warm weather training camps voted unanimously not to do it this year because of the C.V. and the example it would set! Just makes our idiotic board and management team look even more stupid now! If that’s even possible! Utterly embarrassing!

Where was it said that every club was given a week off?
That was because of the league schedule.
Celtic could’ve played in the first available date which was the midweek after the Derby game.

It's naebother @philtim88
You are just trying to stay positive and support your club all Celtic fans get that.
Celtic FC has changed not sure if it has ever belonged to the fans we just think that. Or they play us. Like they are doing now I genuinely hope the game goes ahead but could Hibs jump in and just get the three points C.V. rules etc.
the C.V. might not be live in there system till a few days after they catch it so they will be negative.
Now the way things are this Jag which is in two stages a few have already tested positive while waiting on the second Jag.
We will find out if we are getting punished in an hour or so think this may grow legs lads. Hope I'm wrong.
