to the guy who said that chris burke was in tlks with celtic that isn't true as he is an ex rangers player

He was actually a Celtic youth player first and was released cos he was deemed to be to small

If i remember correctly, Chris Burke was a Celtic fan as a boy. Just because he played (past tense) for Rangers doesn't mean he won't ever sign for Celtic. In my opinion, i think he would make a very decent squad player but we have enough of those already.

can't see why premiership players would want to come to the SPL, it would mean they would be moving from the best league in the world to possibly the worst in the world, im afraid celtic and rangers will be signing nothing more than the best from the championship and the best of the SPL

Believable0 Unbelievable1

Worst league in the world? Another Englishman with feelings of grandeur, and best league in the world? The best of England comes up against the best of Spain and they got a severe spankin'. The Bundesliga is the most watched league in the world, the EPL comes in 4th behind La Liga and Serie A so perhaps you should revise your statement should you wish to use it again in the near future.

Agree1 Disagree0

I bet the only time you go to europe is on holiday just like most of the players in the epl.

Agree0 Disagree0

Luv it! ! EPL is on the downward slope, look at Italy, mediocre team wins the league but none of them get that far in Europe, that's EPL teams future. Spain & Germany are the places to be as you've said. And for the record I'm pretty sure the SPL isn't the worst league in the world, not even the worst league in the UK so cram it in your cram hole Lafleur. Muppet.

Celtic have mad a bid Mackail-Smith FACT, Reading have put a 6-7m price tag on Shane Long. All the club needs to do is accept and he will sign as Long is a Celtic fan. Also hearing Celtic are talking to ManCity over a transfer fee for Given AND Michael Johnson aswell? Not sure if the johnson is true though. Randolph is also coming in ONLY if Newcastle decide to let Froster come back.

Where the hell are we going to get the money for these players not only are the asking price out of our League but so are their wages ( unless we sell our better players like Hooper, Kayal, Emilio and Commons) If we are lucky we maybe afford 1 of them.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

All Celtic have to do is tip the wink to Shane Long that he says to Reading that he wants to go to Celtic and only Celtic and he won't go anywhere else and he won't sign a new contract with them.
I'm sure they would be easy to deal with, (£3 - £4M) because he only has one year left on his contract.

''Given (Says that he sees his future at Man City after saying he would welcome a celtic move look it up)

Matthews (signed) < see him he's not good.
Wilson(signed)
Boulahrouz (who's that)
Wallace (linked with Rangers more so than Celtic)

Kranjcar (linked with Rangers)
Conway (linked with Rangers)
Eremenko (linked with Rangers)

Long (too expensive)
Bothroyd (will end up elsewhere)
Goodwillie'' (Rangers fan who will be at Rangers)

What a team :)''

Why did you list a team of people linked with Rangers?

Believable1 Unbelievable3

Commons was linked with Rangers and he was signed by Celtic. Just because someone is linked with Rangers doesn't mean that they are going to sign him.

Agree0 Disagree0

I know. This guys a total idiot who actually thinks he is making a point haha

Agree0 Disagree0

Why would u sign goodwillie? He is rangers daft n wants to play with them!

Goodwillie will also be in jail by the end of the year, if he loses his court case.

I have heard that youngsters from Govan are going to schools in the Peruvian rain forrests to learn English. It would appear tribes that have had zero contact with the outside world for over 1000 years still have a better understanding of the English language than those morons. You'd think being such staunch supporters of the Queen they would atleast have the decency to learn 'her' language.

"OFFICIAL TRANSFER NEWS! !

Celtic's Beram Kayal is set to move to North London this year with Tottenham Hotspur. Harry Redknapp is eager to bolster his midfield as he is resigned to losing Luka Modric, whilst Wilson Palacios is also set to leave White Hart Lane. It is understood that the deal will comprise of a swap deal for Croatian International, Niko Kranjcar and another £1.2million. Celtic are set to cash in on Kayal with the Parkhead side set to rake in money if the versatile Israeli is sold again. However, Kayal has previously stated his intentions to stay at Parkhead saying: "Hopefully, this success will be continued next season with me still here". The deal is set to unfold over this transfer window, the only stumbling block is that the Parkhead side wish to offload some of their players in order to afford Kranjcar's £32,000 wages. Kranjcar has been a target for Celtic for a couple of years now and the Hoops failed to get his services when he signed for Portsmouth, also under Harry Redknapp. The Croatian has previously welcomed news of the possibility of playing for Celtic.


Mark"

Do you in some way think that putting "OFFICIAL TRANSFER NEWS! !" as a heading to your posting means that it has legitimacy and therefore we should believe what you say.

Such a story would only become official when Celtic, Spurs or both clubs announced a deal.

Stop trying to make yourself look important, you're doing the opposite and portraying yourself as an attention seeker.

Was on a site and it's linking Celtic with moves for Hibs Kurtis Byrne ( Ex Celt Paul Byrne is his dad) and Sunderlands Craig Gordon
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

you have to be kidding mate i saw kurtis byrne playing for alloa thi season and was not up to much he would never make it into the celtic team

Hibs fan here, Byrne was emptied from Hibs as he wasn't good enough, played a few times in the SPL and just didn't look like a decent player. i think he was on the bench for Alloa as well,
No danger will he end up at the lesser greens

Hi Eds, do you know if Celtic are planning on taking back Morten 'Duncan' Rasmussen, who is on loan to danish club AaB? {Ed007's Note - I personally would like to see him given another chance to prove himself, but it looks like he will be leaving. He is due for talks with CFC after holidays etc}

Believable0 Unbelievable0

I've heard he's interested in a move back there and that the club would take him but as the ed says there hasn't been talks as yet.

He's got a reputation for the booze and gambling off the park but I didn't think he did anything wrong in his few appearances and always looked a threat. {Ed007's Note - Maybe he just needs to realise the chance he has got and convince NL to give him another go. He could save us some money in the transfer market if he knuckles down, as we have been missing a big physical presence up front}

Agree0 Disagree0

I loved the big man's celebration, just run at the crowd with both arms in the air. .like a 5yr old pretending to be Superman. Youtube his goal against Motherwell, the celebration after it is classic. .he was well chuffed :D

Hi Guys,
Have been told of the rumours on this site and i can confirm that we have talks with berbatov next monday. He said he would take a drop in wages but not alot in order to be a first team key player.

Thanks

Neil

Believable1 Unbelievable3

What a load of kak, why would berbatov come to scotland? he cost man utd over £30m so he isn't going to come cheap either. Try being realistic

Agree0 Disagree0

Absolute rubbish. Berbatov is reportedly on £110,000k a week, even with a 50% drop in wages it's about 15k more than we can afford to pay a single player. I can't believe some of the rubbish being posted on here at times. {Ed007's Note - You should see what I don't post up!!!!}

Agree0 Disagree0

I assume you are pretending to be Neil Lennon. .how clever. Please keep the posting of crap to the Rangers boards. I hear your strikeforce next season will be Van Nistelrooy (despite the fact he's just signed with Malaga) and David Healy (Hah!). {Ed007's Note - What about Johnny Beattie?}

Agree0 Disagree0

Lol aye ok then speakin as a bear im so worried that this will go thro lol ! the only knowledge of celtic that berbatov has is "are they the team in scotland i played against wen at spurs and they made me look good enough to sign for man utd !" that was the day he found celtics level . .oh my was he impressed lol ! :oP {Ed007's Note - I thought he said it was a team Wayne Rooney had told him all about, and how Wayne and his family were delighted the night Wayne made Ibrox fall silent. Berbatov asked him "Is that the team that were in Manchester for the UEFA Cup Final?" Wayne said "No, Celtic fans are beyond reproach Dimi, they win awards off UEFA for their fans, you must be thinking about Rangers again, they didn't cause any bother though, big boys done it and ran away"}

Agree0 Disagree0

Well said Ed007 on this post. . .

Poor attempt ed couldnt think of anything decent to tie in with berbatov and used rooney instead . . awwwwww . . lol at least u posted it and commented tho . . fair play {Ed007's Note - Why wouldn't I post it? The dark side have got a very low opinion of me for some reason!}

the guy who said about kayal getting a new agent. .you are talking the biggest load a crap! heard that stokes is part of a swap plus money for long on KDS

Kayal does have a new agent. He sacked his old agent and has employed his cousin to act on his behalf. Apparently it pannicked Lennon a bit but he has assured Celtic that he wants to stay. Lennon is ready to triple Kayal's wages. (he's on 7k a week just now).

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
y would stokes agree to this . . there is no way they will be able to offer higher wages i reckon, reading are a championship club and celtic have euro football slap in the fact that stokes is a diehard celtic man and its very difficult to see why he would leave a club he has just joined, take a wage cut (or same wages) and step down a level and no longer have europe football. {Ed007's Note - There is always the chance that NL thinks he is surplus to requirements, along with other factors}

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Yeah ed iv been told of a few riffs that lenny and stokesie have had and its mainly all stokesies fault. . was speaking to Paul Mcg he has been away on loan but iv known him all his life and he still stays thro here (glasgow) he has told me that the guy is a 1st class dcik ! he was fine at first but he thinks he is the best player at tic' like genuinely. . he hast spoken to or seen him recently but me, him and mcginn are always out n about judging from what the players say bout he wouldn't be forced to do anything and is very stubborn (one main reason him and lenny can't get along). Hopefully he and lenny can sort things out and he can sort his attitude out cos he is more than capable of producing the goods for us in the SPL at least.

Look for it under the title "SPL CHAMPIONS TRAINING CAMP" a lot easier to find that way. Its a first class facility for the best team in the country {Ed007's Note - What? Have you forgot about David Murray already? So that is the greatest ever Ranger (John Greig) and your greatest ever owner/chairman has been brushed aside since Tim But Dim took over?}

Agree0 Disagree0

Na ed we have all those trophies to remind us of him . . celtic have nearly 2 decades of "in their shadow" memories to remind him by annol. .cheers Murray !

mt my ed the natives are taking the bait today aren't they HURRAH

Agree0 Disagree0

Ed007 you walked right in to that one and i thought you had something ah well big rab by the way {Ed007's Note - I was going to ask if he actually knew that 2 decades was 20 years, but I was working out how long it will be before they forget about WS now that he has gone and when Tim but Dim will actually hire someone that has the contacts, knowledge and legal requirements to conduct any transfer dealings. It will be VERY expensive if he is only hiring someone and not employing them. He will need to settle his dispute with the forgotten Martin Bain over the financial irregularities before he can employ someone to fill his position. So all the players that are due in to sign will also include heavy agent and legal fees because of the lack of experience within the club to carry out and conclude such tasks. I fear Mr. Bains financial irregularities may not be the last at Rangers. After Tim but Dims embarrassing display with the league trophy and his blatant self publicity and courting of the press in the build up to the takeover, don't you think the silence from Ibrox is eerily deafening and building up to a false dawn?}

Agree0 Disagree0

Oh dear and now your rambling. god loves you ed007 remember its only banter well not after all that but to be fair i didn't read it all like i posted yesterday you worry about your club and we will worry about ours unless you havnt finished biting. tight lines everybody big rab by the the way {Ed007's Note - Evening Rab. We are not worrying about our club. We are stable, have the same board with the exact same business plan as they have had. A manager who has a years start on yours, being linked with quality players as well as scouting and signing young talent to help the youth system prosper, a good solid stadium that is not in need of major repair and refurbishment like Ibrox. When the season starts CFC will be ready for the challenges ahead, with a few quality new signings, the thunder back at paradise, our billionaire board underwriting any debt we have, and at the end of the season, come what may, we will still be standing proud and 100% beyond reproach!}
P.S. Let me know what you think by the way mate :-)

Agree0 Disagree0

On a serious note he hasnt thought thinks out very well league championship belongs to the fans walter smith the players and the old board if it had of been me i would have sacked the lot of them even thoses who have kept there jobs they waited all this time clubs nearly gone to the wall and now they have something to say. on the tax issue we will no end of month so we will have to wait and see i hope for the sake of scottish football both the old firm bring in good players and the only person on here who is beyond reproach is me. is whyte right only time will tell but its better than were we where i here the screens getting ripped out for more seating imo he will be gone in 3-5 years .
whyte is majority share holder but he needs to remember who really owns the club
big rab by the way oh by the way edd007 that gos for the big noises on the board at celtic no fans=no clubs.maybe whyte needs a media person to help him like wee nl needs rant over

{Ed007's Note -Tim but Dim is definitely only interested in making money. Which could be a good thing for Rangers in a way, a successful club makes money, but it also need investment to carry on their success. I think he could be a Fergus McCann type, he will come in, steady the boat, clear the decks of people he doesn't want to work with (Fergus was ruthless in that way), turn the clubs finances around and sell up in 5/6 years to walk away with a tidy profit. The HMRC case is a worry, but I am no financial expert so I can't really comment on it. I will say one thing Rab, I think this could be a great season in Scotland if we can leave all the horrible stuff that went on last year behind. We are and always will be beyond reproach!}

Agree0 Disagree0

Thats my point kick out the sectarian stuff more respect for everyone if the season starts like the last one finished i will be a happy man we don't need the silly childish singing both fans have some new songs some old ones and come the end of next season rangers with a 4iar title im filling up ed007 can't wait big rab by the way {Ed007's Note - Prepare for the chase, I hope your failure blossoms like a thousand cherry trees!}

Agree0 Disagree0

On the subject of being beyond reproach even if i was a saint i couldnt make that statement because things have a nasty way of biting you in the arse and something is bound to happen next year year after and there will be somebody with a paper clipping going don't think you can say that like i have said on here before talking about conspiracy theorys no club would be as successfull as celtic if everyones against them its nonsense there is things that happen in a season that all fans will talk about we should of had stuff and here is the long a short of it there is discisions you should have had but never got then there is discisions you got that you shouldnt of got every game i went to or watched on telly there were these discisions spl epl and over the course of a season will level themselfs out except when you talk to any other team that play the oldfirm they get nothing well so they reckon big rab by the way {Ed007's Note - I don't buy into conspiracy theories, I leave that to Mulder and Scully, but what went on with McDonald at Tannadice was ridiculous. I think it just shows the extremely poor standard of refereeing in Scotland and football in general. Sorry if I take a while answering you Rab, I'm just getting stuff arranged and organised for the the actual window opening. I hope you have told your mates to visit the site by the way}

Agree0 Disagree0

Edd007 its not the chasing its the finishing and at the end of the season too many draws or bad displays will decide who wins the league as far as im concerned celtic can win all the old firm derbys as long as rangers win the league big rab by the way {Ed007's Note - Jock Stein used to say that by the way}

Agree0 Disagree0

Lot of mates look at the site trouble is not many fans use handles so don't no if they post.on refs think we should have a video ref and each team can call on him or her during a game maybe not every decision say each team can call on the video ref say three times in any game in normal time.big rab by the way {Ed007's Note - For penalties etc it could work, it would take about 2 mins and be a final decision rather than players hassling ref/linesmen. Remember linesmen? Bloody assistant referees! If you leave an e-mail Rab I will send you something quite funny. I won't post your add by the way}

Just posting whats its reporting. Tbh a don't want the young striker either as hes not Celtic class, However Gordon I would take in a heart beat

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Is gordon not on like 50k a week at sunderland ?? think he is in which case forget him same with given . . are we really prepared to pay 50k a week for a goalie ?! i can't if it were a big name outfield player yeah maybe cos he can sell shirts but not a goalie. Lenny has been quoted as saying he wants to bring the size of the squad down and shift some deadwood to reduce the wage bill either of these two would pay for at least 3/4 outfield players easily.

If given were to sign it would be on loan and i don't think he would fancy that much {Ed007's Note - I hope CFC don't go down the loan route again with any player, especially a GK. We need players that are here for the long haul or can be sold on to raise funds. Loan fees and wages are just money thrown into the abyss, and if we don't win the league or get a decent european run it has been money wasted IMO. Celtic need to go out this summer and BUY a No.1 who can build a rapport with the defence, this chopping and changing GKs every year does nothing to help build a "team" unit}

Agree0 Disagree0

Ljundberg wasn't brought in to play. I'm sure his transfer had more to do with passing on his experience as a world class winger to James Forrest. And There is no way that he would have raked in 2mil in just 6 months.

Our future is Green and white. Your future is Shyte

Why are people doing so many signing targets for Celtic? Unless selling Izzy or Kayal for millions Celtic will be in bad financial difficulty. There turnover will be down another 10+ Million. The only way they'll be able to pay for Shane Long is about £2-3Million + Stokes. Otherwise will be signings on a free, Jay Bothroyd would be a great signing on a free.
