Hi bhoys and Ghirly hope use are all keeping safe. This Transfer window in my eyes is about starting to shipping out and makng space for the next generation, rather than trying to paper over the cracks. What do use all think?

Sounds good to me rich T.

Rich T I’ve conceded nothing and we should be trying to win the second half of the season. RECRUITMENT (1) keep what we have and know we need even to make a fist of it Eddy, Nelly Noosy, Mc Gregor etc. (2) buy minimum that we know we need which would be a centre half and (3) punt those we know that will never cut the mustard and will be no loss or who are desperate want aways if possible.
See where we end up at the end of the season then let the new manager, backroom staff and recruitment guru (what has happened to Celtics scouting system since Park left) and clear and restock the shelves as they deem necessary.

Am not giving up i still think we have a punchers chance at the league and still have a squad big enough to do something but there are still players there who we can move on who are not getting game time and still maybe win the league with i. e Ntcham Duffy back Elhamed. Promote O Cornell Welsh.

We can beat everybody and them. twice, but only if we shore up our defence and sign a winger who can beat a man and find a good final baw. If we do that, they need to lose one game and draw another and we win. They are rubbish and I duly exact them. to crumble if we pile the pressure on. The fly in the ointment is our pathetic recruitment, where we need to buy 5 players to get one who is any good. Over to Lawell. No laughing at the back.

. bain. hatem. duffy. ajer. bolingoli.
Christie. rogic. ntcham. broony.
Eddy. bayo
Subs . hendry. shved. laxalt ellynoosi. biton.

Subs . hazard. Connell henderson . mcinroy. klimala. Oconner. alifobi. robertson. harper. okoflex. dembele
Some of these fall into categories above . so big clearout possible. / needed but leaving major recruitment. as for how many of the young subs named will be given a chance? Scary thing looking at names they could almost all fall under excesssðŸ˜ðŸ˜.

Ideally I would have wanted a better quality manager to come in and give us all a lift as we really need a fitness and tactical overhaul. Anyway that's not going to happen; so we try to make the best of it and build on the positives of Soro and Turnbull etc?
Rogic was halfway out the door in the summer and maybe he will go?
As for the malcontents; I would hope the club accepts any suitable bids, as it's partly their fault we are in this mess and I really don't want to see half-hearted players dragging us down even more.
Not sure if Duffy will continue his loan, but we needed decent centre back anyway so I expect an arrival one way or the other.
James Forrest will be like a new signing and Johnston is on the way back; maybe we can swap Klimala (or even Ajeti) with a better option to put away the chances we have started to create?

You know what I mean though (1) who would we rather keep to give us the best chance of winning the league? That obvious includes Eddy at his best but if he’s bullet point 3 and is going to give us nothing he’s at bullet point 3 whether we like it or not. Decision shouldn’t be made based on Eddy at his best but Eddy I can’t be arsed if that’s the case. If he’s a want away he’s a want away get rid shot at dawn (2) what do we know we need which is a centre half for starters plus whatever else and (3) punt the donkeys and the want aways including Eddy if it’s half ar$ed Eddy we’d be keeping.
Then give the second half of the season our best shot with players that want to wear the green and white.

A reporter on clyde ss says that he heard if we win old firm game we wouldve been after a high profile keeper from the EPL no name mentioned my question to that would b why not go after him still?
06 Jan 2021 19:43:48
Rich T you said the reporter said he heard we were after a goalkeeper just like most posters on here they heard we were after this or that player.
07 Jan 2021 10:28:19
We need a CB, RW and a RB if Elhamed is to leave.
