ed do you no get the feeling we are going be left short of numbers and quality this season, sooner or later we need a marquee signing, do you no agree that with the bank balance being as good as ever this should be the time? {Ed007's Note - There is still over a month to go in the transfer window, I'll wait until then to judge it.}

Lenny said there wasn't going to be a marquee signing at the start of the window mate. I'm kinda hoping we still interested on Doyle. If he discovered hos best form up here with us then he would be a dangerous forward to any opposition. I think he would retire here if he proved himself. Are we still interested ed?

According to a Celt at the game today there was chanting mocking the death of Lee Rigby, the soldier killed by a lunatic in London. If this is true it is a FKN DISGRACE. Quite apart from disgracing our club what kind of human beings are these people? What are they thinking? This young guy, who left a wife and young family behind, was killed in the most horrendous way.For someone to think a song about it was acceptable is awful. I would hope there was CCTV footage and the complete ******s are identified and barred for life from Celtic Park. I am totally disgusted by this. green jhedi {Ed007's Note - More nonsense from the twisted minds of The Rangers/Sevco hordes started by one of them on Twatter I'm afraid JG. I would have thought you would have seen through it. Funny nobody knows the tune or the words that were allegedly sung.
File this one beside the Dundee 'riot', the Islam CSC flag and the 'fact' that we used to leave the CP floodlights on to help the Luftwaffe during the war.}

ED007: Yeah, sorry mate. It was the fact that a Celtic fan tweeted it that got me.Went searching for more facts and it seems it was an EDL organised piece of garbage. The Brentford fans were raving about the whole game and even the police and stewards did'nt seem bothered by the pitch invasion.

It seems that attention loving graham is putting it about as well, that and Celtic fans torched their bus! Graham of the yard perhaps?. green jhedi

Absolute rubbish started by one of the 300 who called lenny a racist.

@ 007

***********************************

Very, very bad taste if it is indeed true, which unfortunately I wouldn't be that surprised if it was. {Ed007's Note - Until I see or hear any evidence I'm not wanting to get bogged down in it. Look on Twatter and you can easily find who started it. It says a lot more about The Rangers/Sevco fans that they need to make this stuff up, and lets us all on here know what you are like with that statement. Bit of wishful thinking on your part.
I have spoke to people who were there over the phone and in text messages, no such thing happened. Read what Brentford club officials have said. Send in any proof of it happening that isn't just some wee bigoted mug on Twatter and I might take you serious about it.
And let's be honest, what gives The Rangers/Sevco fans the right to take the moral high-ground over anyone?}

This is the kind of allegation you do not make or associate yourself with unless you have 100% proof and heard it with your own ears.

As you said GJ, a young guy lost his life in the most horrific manner and to use this to make yourself twitter popular actually makes me feel ill.

I don't know who this Graham guy is but he is a sorry excuse for a human being and certainly no football fan ~ Mrs E

Lets hope that this wee fandan gets a chap at his door from the the personter police. I am getting really scunnered how these fans of a new club are trying to poison the whole of the scottish game. Is it not enough that they have been let away with murder and the SFA have broken every rule to accomodate the cheating/lieing/city wrecking/tax avoiding/racist/bigoted/thieving etc etc persons.

Pistol Pete should be at Sepp's front door demanding answers as he certainly wouldn't get an answer at Ogilvies!!

Ballybhoy

Was at the game not one vile song was sung signing wise the boys were well behaved

Well let's see the police get in there and make an arrest maybe! let's face it, these sort of comments are designed to cause trouble and unrest of the highest order!
There has already been arrests with regards to tweeting on this topic so let's see another one! If there isn't any action, I think people need to be asking serious questions as to why not?!

Once again Ed007 you have proven me right. I posted a message stating a differing opinion to yours, nothing wrong with it, yet you take it all away with "***" and make it look like I have said something against the rules. So if you could clear up what it was I said for future reference that would be appreciated. You are clever, I'll give you that and I appreciate the job you do as you know your stuff. You are excellent on the wrestling page, but on the Celtic page you are totally different. You are beyond arrogant imo. I take it you were not there today, so as you say (and as I said in my post, which you decided to take away) it is all hear say.

GRD {Ed007's Note - I edited your post because it was just full of malicious lies that you had read on Twatter, it's as simple as that. If it wasn't you I would have deleted the whole post and blocked you from the sites. Your opinion of me is neither here nor there, I prefer to take a responsible adult approach to things, you should try it sometime.}

If it had been in any way true, it would be a big story. The fascist element try to use social media to spread their hatred all the time. However hard they try, it never works. The vast majority are too well brought up to be fooled. Unfortunately they only ever succeed to pass it on to their own children, thereby making them the real victims of their twisted minds. You must remember people pay to join these organisations and foolishly line the pockets of the organisers. They have to lie because the truth destroys them.

There was a very good piece on news now guys. Detailing how a sevco fan started this. Should still be there so go have a look. Should clear this horrible mess up. Our fans were excellent down there Brentford fans were raving about us one said he was walking alone through crowds of us and the only contact received was several cuddles lol. Even there manager loved us. I don't want to talk about why this twisted sevconian started this because that is giving the degenerate exactly what it wants.

In the mid July heat down Govan way, a new bromance flourishes strong. Alastair and Craig we are reliably informed, by? the man in the know who likes to blabber, enjoy sharing beers together, and sharing pies? They have intimate long chats into the balmy night, possibly discussing imaginary transfer targets, imaginary budgets, imaginary hair restorative products and compare notes on weight loss plans.
Alastair finally has a soul mate, someone to fill the lonely void of the last two years. Someone who understands, someone who cares.
The day of reckoning is a distant thought from an angry time. Nothing could be further from his mind in these perfect summer days of golden pre season. A happily ever after beckons.
But as the sun sets and the light fades, Craig M pulls off his rubber mask to reveal, shock horror, old flame Craig W. the nightmare goes on.

Yes indeed its ibroke back mountain lol mm

'As he rubbed Craig's greasy hair Ally knew he had found the right man, a man who would support his dreams.It was perfect.Standing on the pitch at a moonlit Ibrox they spoke of their dreams, of their love of pies and brown brogues, but most importantly their future together.Ally knew this was the man for him.Whyte had promised him the earth only to dump him for a blond in Monaco. Green was even worse, Ally was taken in by his strong, big hands and promises of big contrcts. He had been a fool, but he knew this was the real thing. Craig moved forward and tried to slip his hands around Ally's waist, they laughed together as they both knew this was impossible.It was perfect.Craig gently wiped some pie crust from Ally's lips, leant forward and whispered what Ally wanted to hear. We are the people.Ally held him tightly and said 'you had me at we'. green jhedi

Moonbeams of success will shine on ibrokeback. - SDM

Then bomber brown sticks on the floodlights and gives them a bashing.

As a rangers season ticket holder, I have to say that green jehdi was spot on and it was good to finally get a good bit of banter. You should post it on the rangers page.Thought it was so appropriate with the way he acts with every chief executive we get.

Well in Rab1

Balde gets his first celtic goal! Bye bye hooper!

Good result but i'm disgusted with our so called fans invading the pitch. Ruined a good day in my opinion. Julieghirl

@1 I was there fans were nuts but I can assure you not one vile song was sung that's orcs making that up because they've nothing better to do because their wee diddy team is a shambles

Why is there a thread of Ambrose hate in Celtic fans? Is it because of the Juventus match? Everyone harks back to the days of Bobo and Myallby, but they had their moments in defense but its easy to forget that. Ambrose is much more techincally gifted than either of those two, the guy is quality.

Everyone's entitled to their opinion but it seems unjustified to me.

Quack

I have backed Ambrose but you are right a lot of fans seem to love to hate him. Sopotcelt

I personally do not rate him at all, think we r stronger when he isn't on park. I hope van dijk can be the CH we desperately need to kick on. As for ambrose I think he is absolutely murder, I can think of many more mistakes than against juve. killie at home for one, I worry when he gets on the ball, I never worried when big johan was on the ball, but opinions can be different.

Rbhoy

He looked good when he first arrived and was comfortable on the ball and even scored a couple of good goals.
But he has become too comfortable and lazy on the ball and dally's in possession and every forward in the SPL knows he will try to beat them or turn his man and are wise to him.
His complacency is what fans don't like as he never learns from mistakes, thus causing goals or goal attempts.
His back-heading and overhead kicks at Solitude caused havoc.
The Juventus game was a shocker, but most fans blamed NL for playing a man just back form winning the ACN, who was physically/mentally drained.

Jungle Jim

I think he's what we need, world star international who brings creativeness to our defence. Bit sketchy at times but he'll only get better. Gandalf the green.

He has only been here a season and is still developing and adapting, he had far more good games than bad and yes he can get caught in possession but I think he can become a good player for us, after all people wanted wilson shipped out but he improved, also the balde I watched wasnt immune to lax play and **** ups too .,,,,,, deep river bhoy

"The guy is quality"

At OP, my diagnosis is sun stroke mate. Stay out of the sun for a few days, rest up and drink plenty of fluids. Once your fit again and out in the sun make sure your keep well hydrated and maybe wear a hat before you go running about mad as a norrie making outlandish statments

Only jestin buddy, like you say your entitled to your own opinion I just think he's a nightmare. No concentration in a defender spells danger. He's an accident waiting to happen. Done well against Cliftonville though, no f*nnying about and cleared his lines, first time he dallied on the ball in the second half he lost it and we nearly lost a goal so that tells you all you need to know.

Lenny needs to play the psyche game smart with all opposition, fergie was a master, mourinho does it.

Mo Bangura is out on loan for a reason, whether Elfsborg play him or not won't matter. Celtic are a far superior side end of.

However, Lenny needs to push the issue. We own the player.

Historically what has happened in similar circumstances?

Shouldn't there be a paragraph in his loan contract stating he doesn't play against Celtic? Just like spl loan deals?

It just doesn't feel right a player running out in the most important competition against his own club.

Bangura is hopelessly conflicted and cannot play against his own team in such critically important circumstances.

There is no UEFA rule and there clearly was no agreement between the clubs when the loan was agreed so it comes down to Elfsborg and Bangura at the end of the day.
If he sees a future at Celtic then he'll not play. But to be honest, it doesn't look like he has a future with us so he might play in the hope he has a future with Elfsborg.

Hail Hail

Is NL justified in making comments about Bangura? If true I think he is leaving himself open. The questions are not about Banguras willingness or otherwise. Its about do The Swedish team hold his registration. All be it temporarily and is he eligible and fit to play. If so what has it got to do with Celtic. He is not our player for the period of the loan. He is Elfsborgs. They paid for him for a period of the loan. Quite frankly NL comments are not very classy and it amazes me we give a hoot about Bangura given he could not score in the SPL after more than a dozen attempts. Fate says he will score well that's the risk you take when you loan players out and don't include a clause. But we should have more than enough to deal with the Swedes without potentially threatning behaviour. It may not be against Uefa rules to make such declarations but I assure everyone it is against european employment law. It may be NL has been misquoted but many many news outlets are reporting his comments almost word for word. Imagine we had a player from say Chelsea or Barcelona and drew them would we want and expect our player that we paid for if only temporary to play or not. Of course we would and we would scream bloody murder if they tried to intimidate the player and our club. A proper foxes paw here Neil. Sort it out please. Sopotcelt.

20 Jul 2013 11:33:24
Cant agree sop, he is our player and Lenny only stating the obvious, imagine he scores and puts us out then comes back after the loan, how would we the fans react? If anyone needs to show class its the Swedes(he is our player and to put him in a bad position would not be fair) Nothing to see here, its a no brainer and Lenny is right the boy should not play

Dannybhoy

He shouldn't have done it through the media he should have just contacted Bangura and told him in private that he didn't want him to play in these maches and seen what his reaction was. If he continued his willingness to play then tell him his Celtic career is over and on his return he'll be training with the youths until he's moved out again or released at the end of his deal. Bangura shouldn't even be interested in playing in this match, his head should be telling him he can't play against the club who own him. Another example of the modern day football showing no loyalty. They say you should never bite the hand that feeds you and I think if Bangura plays he will be doing just that. I fully understand Elfsborg are paying his wages during this loan but it doesn't change the fact he is a Celtic player at the end of the day.

Agree with sopo lack of professionalism on our part, it is bog standard to have a clause inserted for just this reason.they should now let the boy. Ghreengo.

I'm pretty sure the same thing happened with David Fernandez when we loaned him back to Livingston. No clause in his contract but Davie Hay who was manager of Livi didn't play him because celtic were good enough to loan him to them. Elfsberg should do the same no matter if they are paying wages. Do celtic have an option to cancel the loan agreement? That might be another option if they don't play ball

OP - Lenny is stating the obvious. He rarely evades a question. I think he is right to answer the question the way he has done. Good on him.

Bankie Bhoy

The bottom line is he is Elfsborgs player. They hold his registration and no amount of teeth gnashing and intimidation will change this fact. Sopotcelt.
