"As much as I'd like to see Robbie Keane at Celtic on a permanent I can't see it, as with most modern day footballers money plays the biggest part of a deal. As for the clown on here giving it large that he's been up here today, he was playing for Spurs reserves today so he's done well to play and be in Glasgow, why do people waste there time with these stupid posts, maybe he seen him. I'd love him to sign but I can't see it had to laugh at him on Sky sports mocking Birmingham! The deal was a non starter and they must have done it for publicity! Ha ha gan on Robbie lad get it right up ye old pebble dashed face McCleish, if he couldnae afford King Kenny Miller how the hell would he pull the Keane deal off?!"

Hello im the guy who does coaching with kilmarnock the rumour going about the backroom is that sammon is almost certain to sign for celtic spoke to craig bryson today about it he said connor was up today and spoke on phone yday a deal is apparntley almost done trying to negotiate on how much killie gt in the sell on clause in future sell on fee heard it here 1st guys should be anounced within the week

18 Jan 2011 17:50:14

Ed do you know what is happening with Conor Sammon, there is a rumour doing the rounds he is on his way to Glasgow for talks, but there seems to be some confusion as to who it's with. Surely it's got to be Celtic as I can't see the 'dark side' signing him considering his background.

{Editor Note: I know nothing mate.}

18 Jan 2011 17:47:36

Robbie Keane will not be coming to Celtic in the transfer window. Robbie is willing to come and would look at a small wage drop to come, however he would still be well over the wage structure.

This is not the issue though the block on this deal is Spurs are simply not willing to do a loan deal and we can't afford the transfer fee.

The only chance of RK coming is another 5 minutes to midnight deal as Spurs have not been able to find anyone else and want to offload wages. But this is extremely unlikely.

From a very good source

To the person who said Shane Long is signing for Celtic how did u find that story out Shane is actually in talks with Celtic but he is also talking to few teams i do no Wolves are interested. Shane is a Celtic fan but most Irish are and as far as i no he is really excited about the move.

Now on to Reading

The Royals are looking at Signing Micheal O'Connor of Scunny as it looks as if they are going to go down and Reading are offering to save him from League 1. Also Heard that jordan Rhodes of huddersfield might also be signing. If the Long deal goes ahead with Celtic then Reading are going to take Glenn Loovens on loan

AS FOR YOUR INFANTILE COMMENTS THAT LENNON IS A HORRIBLE PERSON OF THE PARK, GROW UP MAN, YOU HAVE NO EVIDENCE TO BASE THIS ON (ALTHOUGH YOU'LL PROBABLY MAKE UP SOME OUTRAGEOUS STORY). AGAIN IT'S JUST YOUR BLUE TINTED SPECTACLES GETTING STEAMED UP WITH WITH THE BILE YOU SPOUT.

Re: Well i have met this saint off the park and refused to sign an autograph cos I support Killie. It was after a game at rugby park bout 6 years ago. his exact words were "a killie fan, F* k off" and walked away onto the bus. Lovely guy!

in response to what the guy said lennon was defo given a 2 match ban for the original incident with the officials. And the 4 matches was for continual misconduct in appealing everything and challenging the integrity of the refs whether this was his personal ploy or the clubs i don't know but these are the official reasons why he was given the ban

did u not see his pass to set samaras away for his first against rangers? hes the most underrated player at celtic, i watch him week in week out and he been one of celtic best performers this season and hardly missed a game!
get off the guys back rember he was cardiffs captain last season and took them to the playoffs!

bhoy1888"

Ledley is a good player, but I don't think he is yet firing on all cylinders at Celtic. Doesn't get into the box as often as he did at Cardiff. Don't know if this is on Lennon's instructions or whether he's still adjusting to playing with Celtic. Will have more influence next season.

"Yeah but u can penalise someone for misconduct which is what he was given the ban for . . . replays show that mcdonald was RIGHT to change his mind it was not a penalty, Lennon has been done for appealing every decision, decisions like scott browns red card (yes celtic wanted "clarification" on this as well depsite it being pretty blatant) celtic appealed a blatant double booking in which fans say he was stupid to make though lennon said it wasnt a booking and the player could ahve got out the way! these are the types of MISCONDUCT get it ur heads MISCONDUCT is what he got a 4 game ban for, he got a 2 game ban for what was said to officials after the hearts game. Even his 2nd in charge, yes big Johan has been quoted as saying that he needs to learn, needs to calm down surely he wouldn't be saying thses things if he was in the right ?

This is not for his first offence his first offence got him a 2 match ban the rest got him another 4. every bit deserved. horrible person on the park, horrible person off it."

THIS IS JUST A RIDICULOUS RANT FROM AN IGNORANT PERSON WHO IS BLINDED BY HIS HATE FOR LENNON.

THE ABOVE RESPONSE IS TOO FULL OF HOLES, IT JUST DOES NOT MAKE SENSE. FOR ONE THING, LENNON CANNOT BE DONE FOR MISCONDUCT FOR APPEALING A PLAYERS RED CARD. I COULD GO ON BUT WHAT'S THE POINT - YOU'RE JUST A BIASED RANKER AND YOU WOULDN'T ACCEPT COMMON SENSE.

AS FOR YOUR INFANTILE COMMENTS THAT LENNON IS A HORRIBLE PERSON OF THE PARK, GROW UP MAN, YOU HAVE NO EVIDENCE TO BASE THIS ON (ALTHOUGH YOU'LL PROBABLY MAKE UP SOME OUTRAGEOUS STORY). AGAIN IT'S JUST YOUR BLUE TINTED SPECTACLES GETTING STEAMED UP WITH WITH THE BILE YOU SPOUT.

Reported in today's Evening Times:

"Now it has been revealed the committee is ALSO still looking at Lennons comments following the infamous match at Tannadice when ref Dougie McDonald lied to him about his decision to reverse a penalty decision he had given in favour of Celtic."

If this is correct it amounts to victimisation. If they had any evidence against him he should have been charged with it by now. Or if any investigations were required, they should have been completed by now, with a decision having been made on whether to charge him.

You just cannot charge someone in relation to an incident such as this that happened 3 months ago. It's not as though they're waiting for forensic results or anything similar, any investigation into Tannadice should have been wrapped up within a couple of weeks as it was all based on eye witness evidence. The investigation would have comprised of interviewing witnesses and viewing television and possibly CCTV evidence.

The SFA are making absolute fools of themselves and of Scottish football.

"Gary Hooper been banned for 18months by the SFA for speaking out against officials? It's on a news feed on the Celtic website!" {ed's note - you have misread it, he was given a £2000 fine, which is suspended for 18 months.}

LOL! You jungle jims really do make me laugh. . Is it actually possible to be that thick!? (I bet that even made you chuckle ed!?) {ed's note - I had to go reread it to make sure I hadn't go it wrong.

People seem to have lost the sense of fun sometimes.

Some taglines for you if I may.

The Ed never sleeps.

In Ed we trust.

Any jobs going?! {ed's note - I will keep you in mind for when we need more help. At the moment I have just brought in a couple of new editors and I want to give them time to get used to things before looking for more. Plus it helps if you leave some kind of identifier in the email field when you post so we can make sure you are the right type of person. Believe me it takes a certain kind of person to cope with the stuff we have to read day after day.}

WHAT ARE THE SFA ALL ABOUT?! How can the chairman of Kilmarnock FC be on the panel at Neil Lennons hearing? For gods sake just send him in front of the masons why don't you! Mount Florida is now officialy the biggest Masonic Lodge in Scotland. What must the football world think of our game and the so called establishment that runs our game, it is an absoloute joke how a so called football association can be exposed publicly as being so poorly run from the bottom to the very highest level just a matter of weeks ago with corrupt referees that lie and conspire to hide bias decisions on the park then dish out unfair punishments to a rookie manager who is cutting his teeth and wears his heart on his sleeve, ridiculous, bizzare, amateur comes to mind, I wonder if Ally McCoist had been in the dock for similar offences would the SFA be behaving so unfairly? Well we all know the answer to that but lets be honest when do Rangers get hammered for anything? That would be never, reason being they never have reason to complain! I rest my case, the sooner the SFA get their house in order the better but until such times Celtic FC will be used as target practice. How dare they question the integrigity of the establishment that runs our game! Our should I say Masons in disguise!
