I put out a list of players positions which we may need but without lioking at the returning players from out on loan. Hendry Shved Robinson Bayo etc from all accounts Hendry has done well could be worth a look in pre season In fact all the above should be looked at in pre season so we might not be needing as many as i first thought.

20 Feb 2021 22:05:37
Stay off the drink rich t mate.

20 Feb 2021 23:33:29
You'll get great odds Rich on any of those players listed getting anywhere near the Celtic first team - ever.

20 Feb 2021 23:58:20
That's a few shouts I've seen for Bayo to get a chance. If we were linked with a 5 goal striker from a Ligue 2 side - who isn't even a regular starter - I doubt any of us would be best pleased.

21 Feb 2021 01:24:04
Hendry won't be back, belgian club he is at plan to sign him before end of loan.

Shved won't be back either, serious attitude problem.

21 Feb 2021 06:40:23
Kevbhoy could see your point especially an un fit Bayo because the the club he went to said that he was not upto speed in terms of fitness but a fully fit Bayo buzzing about at this moment is better option than Ajeti Bayo gives more energy i think kalmala shouldve went out on loan instead of Bayo Edouard and Bayo wouldve been interesting just my opinion.

21 Feb 2021 08:19:52
Your right rich ajeti will not do and bayo might be worth a shout, klimala deff won't do a blind man can see he needs to go on loan and get games or ount him. it boils down to an absolute fortune down rhe drain on strikers.

21 Feb 2021 09:18:37
Bayo should have had a run.
The new lads have made us better and bayo up front with eddy would work. But Lenny as usual does not know how to get the best out of certain players who just need shown a better way. As ajeti 4 million + whst did they see in him to spend that amount of money.

21 Feb 2021 09:23:58
I like ajeti, what I think that's happened is, he was scoring goals then eddy came back in and ajeti got dropped, that must have pissed him off and I think that's the problem right now. Lennon sticks with his faves and doesn't give the new guys a chance or when he does it's one game here and there they don't get a run of games to get their form back. We need to give these guys a fair crack of the whip because they will be here when eddy is gone. So start playing the guys who still want to be here not the ones working their ticket. Just my opinion.

21 Feb 2021 09:39:49
The one issue I have with players being dismissed as not good enough is this that none of these players have had any sort of consistent run in the team, when they have been thrown in, it was usually when too many fringe players were put in to a skeleton team at the time and with a clueless, inept management overseeing them. Would prefer them to be slotted into a strong line up that was doing well not thrown in for 15 minutes to turn a round an impending poor result and then deemed not good enough. This apples to our younger players as well.
It also can’t be a coincidence how players going out on loan being deemed unfit. This management team has a lot to answer for. Get it some won’t make the grade but at least give them a reasonable chance.

21 Feb 2021 10:00:23
Know some things seem better looking back, but remember the days we made a signing put them straight in the team, fans were excited, the new player was on a high and the club had an idea of what they had bought. Now we spend millions, leave them to stew on the sidelines for months, then throw them into a rubbish performing team and when they can’t turn things around, slag them off, send them out on loan then sell them for a loss.

21 Feb 2021 10:58:49
Chasaboy, Bayo specifically was never given a run because every time an opportunity came up he was injured. I'm not saying anyone who would give him another shot is wrong but I genuinely find it quite interesting that you could take a guy like Bayo and a lot of guys want to give him a chance but if you plucked another name who's had an almost identical career the same people would likely dismiss him out of hand. I'm probably guilty of it myself.

21 Feb 2021 13:34:47
Bayo is terrible. His second touch is a tackle on the oppositions striker. can't believe he is even being discussed. Think there was an option to buy clause in his loan. Let's hope whatever diddy team he is at are foolish enough to take it up.

21 Feb 2021 14:11:59
Bayo was another Lawell cheap punt and hope signing, to go along with the other two dozen duds he brought. the sooner his cheapskate backside is out the door, onky then will we have a chance to be prepared for a CL qualification, the main prize financially which misfur8ng pistol has failed to do 75% of the last 12 attempts. Great businessmen thst misses the biggest market so often? Yeah right.

20 Feb 2021 15:37:12
I can’t help but cringe for Kris Boyd,
He struggles to talk properly and is constantly getting himself mixed up on Gillette Soccer Saturday.
I know he’s got a big mouth but I still think he’s got too many teeth, which is causing him problems with his speech.

20 Feb 2021 15:48:18
😅😅😅.

20 Feb 2021 16:07:15
😁😁😆😆.

20 Feb 2021 16:08:48
Buzz, I've always thought his biggest issue was that he's a thick, ignorrant, Ayrshire Orc.

20 Feb 2021 16:16:54
his punditry skills are non existent he's an eejit, how he's managed to bag himself a well paid job at sly is beyond me.

20 Feb 2021 16:26:06
Kris "And erm" Boyd can't finish off a sentence without forgetting the point he was trying to make. He's a dafty.

20 Feb 2021 16:34:08
Kris Boyd, Thinking on a Empty Head.

20 Feb 2021 16:34:22
If I listened to Kris Boyd I'd need a translater being from southern Ireland I try and avoid his commentary.

20 Feb 2021 17:02:56
Larbhoy he’s fae Ayrshire we need a translator ken like aye.

20 Feb 2021 17:58:54
As they’d said back in the day “more teeth than a Ferrari gearbox”.

20 Feb 2021 18:26:19
Erm and Erm is an embarrassment of a so called pundit no matter who you support. It beggars believe that he earns a wage from any outlets. I suppose being an orc cheerleader gets him a few gigs.

20 Feb 2021 18:31:28
Breaking his teeth in for Shergar.

20 Feb 2021 20:35:54
I was saying to the mrs earlier, imagine being blind and listening to his commentary. You wouldn’t even know the score of the game, he starts on one subject and goes onto another mid sentence. Every other commentator has about a minute to tell you what’s happening, he takes about 4 to explain someone has a corner 🙈.

20 Feb 2021 20:41:43
His goal record against us is 1 more than the amount of titles sweatco has won.

21 Feb 2021 11:12:15
We will be subjected to more mumbling from Boyd tonight.
He’s back for our game at Dingwall.

20 Feb 2021 13:05:46
Regarding mickey Johnson since he came back he's been awful, he needs to kick on, but for me he doesn't look like he's hitting the gym enough, big Welsh just done a piece stating that he's bulked up and I know mikey is slight but he can still do more imo he has ability but sometimes u need more than that.

20 Feb 2021 13:42:47
Mally, Mickey might have all the tricks and some pace but unless he builds himself up physically then he has no chance. The lad is way too light to play first team football. He gets knocked off the ball every time he plays no matter who we play. In any derby game l have seen him in he can't deal with the physicality side of the game. For me the lads is too light and needs to seriously build himself to compete at this level.

20 Feb 2021 15:14:54
Agree ter not sure he'll make it long term unless he knuckles down.

20 Feb 2021 16:06:04
Always thought he was overrated. Could be doing with a year away on loan like Christie and Ajet to see how he gets on with regular game time. I suspect he won't make the grade at us.

20 Feb 2021 16:06:59
He should be miles ahead in his development, career and experience considering his time at the club but injury has hampered progress.
I have my doubts that he will ever establish himself, although as I said in an earlier post - a new manger may get him back on track, but toughening/ bulking-up like KT and even Klimala should be his priority.

20 Feb 2021 16:47:45
He is far too weak. He needs to build up or he will never reach the potential he has. You look at him the wrong way and he falls over. Worked for Christie.

20 Feb 2021 18:24:22
Only player at the club more over rated than johnstone is rogic. That bhoy is just another GMS.

20 Feb 2021 20:11:31
Johnson reminds me a lot of wee Brian McLaughlin who played under Mccari then Burns, he has the skill but far to weak and only managed 70 something games in 7 years.
He has some really nice touches but won't come to anything.

19 Feb 2021 22:09:25
Hi Ed007, I hope you are well, I know our new CEO DM will have loads on his "to do list" and raising revenue now to rebuild will be vital, he was involved with the SRU when renaming Murryfield and getting a massive sponsorship deal, I think in the region of £20M in 2014, do you think he will look to do a similar deal with Celtic Park?
I'd love a link up with a company with a "Celtic connection" like Guinness, Who would you folks want as a stadium sponsor?
Hail Hail and KTF🍀.

{Ed007's Note - I'd have no problem with us selling naming rights to Celtic Park and I'm surprised it's not been seriously looked at before but I've no idea if McKay will look to do it.
It won't be Guinness - they aren't as stereotypical "Irish" as people think - and as long as it's not something tacky and definitely not a gambling company.
If you search Guinness on the site you'll find an April Fool's spoof I done a few years that took in a & upset lot of people.}

20 Feb 2021 12:42:18
For this season it would have to be Knorr, a laughingstock 😒😪.

20 Feb 2021 14:08:22
Why not go big and go for spmething like Tesla. Then we could have the greenest stadium in the world with powerwalls etc. No limits with this and elon musk is one of the richest men in the world.

20 Feb 2021 09:24:28
Big Sutton as usual sticking up for the club regarding the cv treatment we received unlike sevco, and then lenny has a pop at the government. but wheres lawell and bankier and Desmond, wheres the leadership.

20 Feb 2021 09:53:13
I get the feeling Lawwell doesn’t like to rock the boat, whilst he’s on the SPFL board.

20 Feb 2021 11:05:06
That's true Mally the board should be coming out fighting our so called PR department should be getting involved but as usual like the 5 way agreement it's tumbleweed time yet again.
