Looks like we may be hitting the market looking for that GK everyone's been hoping for as it looks like Sieghrist could be off to the land down under to be closer to his Mrs.

GG away to MLS on a 3 year deal with Atlanta.

Best of luck just hope he doesn't need to compete for the jersey or he will be looking for a new club by the summer.
2.) 10 Feb 2023 08:04:45
He says the facilities are amazing, shame about the league, most players are leaving there to enhance there careers and end up there after a good career in Europe, but good luck to him.
3.) 10 Feb 2023 16:46:54
agreed Mally, step back and 1 he will regret.

Hi Ed, hope you're doing well mate.
I was wondering if you had any info on the rumours about Ryan Mmae?
Is there any serious interest from us or is it another case of the agent using the club to drum up interest from elsewhere?
{Ed007's Note - I'm good thanks buddy ? Celtic have scouted Ryan Mmaee but I don't know if there is any plans to move forward with a move for him.}
1.) 11 Jun 2022 17:57:15
Glad to hear it bud!
Cheers for the info, I keep seeing articles about him, one even comparing him to the Skelper so wasn't sure how much of it could be trusted but it's good to know that despite our prowess were still looking for different options. Personally, I'm happy if we have forwards with different strengths, it gives us the option and ability to play a few ways and keep things fresh and keep opponents guessing.
I think we've had a few too many players be figured out by teams, Sinclair being the most recent and it nullifies a lot of the threat that once offered.
{Ed007's Note - ?
2.) 12 Jun 2022 10:59:48
I would love us to sign Mmaee he looks really good. Us being in the CL is a draw but the lad has options and my fear is a better league and more money is always an issue for us. There may be nothing in it as is the case with the vast majority of rumours, but I think Ange knows he needs another striker and I trust him to get us one who isn’t utterly useless like the busload of Lawells pathetic punts over too many years.

Apparently that's Abada away to Palace ?♂️ and so the attempted settling begins.
1.) 21 May 2022 14:22:46
Were you hearing this?
2.) 21 May 2022 16:15:56
Total bollocks of a story.
3.) 21 May 2022 16:59:05
Absolute pish, he's come out and said so himself.
4.) 21 May 2022 19:16:29
Just seen the headline to what looks like click bait to me, I did in fact read the story and it is a re-hashed version of what he said 2 weeks ago when asked about his future and links away from the club, the article failed to mention at the end that Abada also said in the very same answer to the very same question know doubt, “that it’s his ambition and childhood dream was to play in the champions league” so there goes the Palace links no chance they will ever hear the anthem in their stadium.
19 Jan 2022 13:02:29
Has anyone heard any more about Soro moving to the MLS?
1.) 19 Jan 2022 17:37:44
I read one story last week but have seen nothing since.
Soro is one of a few players who's careers (if they want a game) would benefit from a move away from CP.

Celtic were 4 minutes from a piece of history tonight. Prior to this evening, we had won 9 league home games without conceding, we have never won 10 in a row without losing a goal. It would have been some feat but excellent result tonight!
1.) 25 Feb 2025 22:20:39
Amazing stats rbd,
Aberdeen remain the only club to score a league goal at Celtic Park along with 12 clean sheets.
2.) 25 Feb 2025 22:51:25
If Aberdeen took their chances, we could have been in another Hibernation scenario!
Great result, performance not so. 3 first half goals killed the contest, but do our back four trust the players in front of them? Because the way they contort to go back defies even what BR says he wants as in getting forward quicker.
This is not being negative, on the contrary, it’s about how we get better. As much as we have excelled in Europe, we have not so much struggled at home as have made things more difficult than they should be.
Everyone has their favourite players but football is about evolving, and our use of transfer windows still isn’t where it needs to be.
3.) 26 Feb 2025 00:03:45
That was a 5-4 game if Aberdeen turned up. Fortunately they didn't. Trusty just isn't up for a tussle. Loses out too easily. Ccv pedestrian going through the attack lines. Still result is on the board. Over to our closest challengers to follow.
4.) 26 Feb 2025 00:35:58
Chasaboy, I think you will see an improvement in March . For a very large part of the season so far we have been playing two games a week . Not only can this be very tiring on the players, it also creates a lot of difficulty for our manager and coaches, as they have very little time to work on defensive structures and on attacking moves . No more mid week games until the last week of SPL,
However we should be mindful of the fact that we were just a couple of mins from creating a Scottish top league record of 10:home wins in a row without concealing a goal . Also we can’t complain too much about Celtic lack of scoring power as we are heading towards one of the top goal totals ever scored We may look sluggish at times and seem to be playing without our usual zest and excitement but BR usulally seems to pull us out of our slumbers.
5.) 26 Feb 2025 08:43:52
Personally I thought it was a good response after defeat at Easter Road… Engels and Maeda were immense (again) , Yang progressing, and Trusty just needs to be a bit tougher…. Calmac needs a rest when it’s safe to do so ?.
6.) 26 Feb 2025 08:56:30
I think Buzz has a rival!
7.) 26 Feb 2025 19:13:22
Trusty still hasn’t got himself mentally and physically right to take on the robust strikers that many SPL clubs play . It isn’t just the strikers pulling and pushing that causes Trusty the problems, it’s the way the referees up here rarely calls a foul against them . Trusty gets too much involved pulling and holding attackers and often doesn’t get off the ground . He will have to change and concentrate on going for and winning ball, as his retaliation against striker bullying him will soon cost us in penalties.
04 May 2024 04:00:24
We never stop - 33/ 1 at time of posting.
4.45 Newmarket. Could be due a resurgence after a lull. Worth A punt each way! And if you're with Paddy Power, they're giving away free bets for Newmarket tomorrow so worth a wee look!
1.) 04 May 2024 10:38:41
@rdb21 put it on at 33/ 1 cheers
One of my cousins in Ireland has given me a horse at Punchestown
THE VERY MAN 14/ 1 (I got 20/ 1 earlier) Sly pay 7 places.
2.) 04 May 2024 10:59:35
I don’t normally bet horses but I’ve got a small bet on
Marcella Goodwood 2.05pm
@ 6/ 1 boosted to 13/ 2.
Give me something to watch on the bus travelling to the match.
I’ve also bet Celtic to score at least 3 goals and Celtic to get at least 10 corners @ 9/ 2.
3.) 04 May 2024 12:07:35
Buzz I love your optiimisim although we are due to give the wee sevvies a hammering
But I will take any victory today.
4.) 04 May 2024 13:12:14
We regularly hammerd them on the last game or 2 so hopefully we do. Going for 5-0.Kyogo to step up today and next week!
5.) 04 May 2024 15:05:07
I rarely bet as I know the only winner is the bookie.
However, to get out of the house I went for a walk to the bookies. So warning to adb and timalloy, these horses better come in or I'll get ed to give me your address and pay you a visit. ?.
01 Oct 2023 13:03:41
Good afternoon folks,
It's the Arc today - 3.05 ParisLongchamp and Japan have major claims for their first win in this race with Through Seven Seas in green and white hoops. Currently 10/ 1.
The horse came second by a neck to the world's highest rated horse whi.
11 Sep 2023 13:06:56
2.30 Perth - Kyogo, I got it at 7/ 1 with a £5free bet.
1.) 11 Sep 2023 14:45:42
Thanks for the tip mate won 40 quid.
2.) 11 Sep 2023 15:16:00
Nice one RDB.
I don’t bet generally but I thought about that one when I saw your post this morning but didn’t act on it unfortunately.
After that goal at the Bronx it was a certainty!
3.) 11 Sep 2023 15:33:46
@ rdb21 Literally money for nothing Well Done.
4.) 11 Sep 2023 15:37:46
A good 7/ 1 winner for you rdb. ?
It’s always better to get the early guaranteed odds, especially when it only wins at 5/ 1 like Kyogo.
I missed it because I’ve just seen your post.
I noticed Kyogo beat Gordon Elliott’s other horse and odds on favourite.
Kyogo runs from a brilliant stable and it’s one to keep an eye on.
5.) 11 Sep 2023 15:51:18
I’ve just watched a re-run of the race.
Kyogo looked like it was going to win easily but it then he had a little wobble, when he was running towards the line.
6.) 11 Sep 2023 17:05:31
Buzz
Maeda would have won that race!
7.) 11 Sep 2023 18:00:08
To be fair JFP,
Maeda is faster than Kyogo ?.
8.) 12 Sep 2023 16:50:15
Thanks lads and well done to those who were on it as well! Set me up nicely for the day.
01 Sep 2023 18:44:59
The fact Abada has signed his new deal today, of all days, is a distraction tactic to take eyes away from the front door and the lack of signings we needed in more.
I'm disappointed we haven't signed a third striker to the squad and a new GK was on everyone's shopping list . The players s in, by and large, were scouted with ebg ball.
1.) 01 Sep 2023 19:16:27
If they think we are going to forget what we need because Abada extended his contract, they really aren’t in the zone, are they?
2.) 01 Sep 2023 19:55:40
Looking at players in.
Are Nawrocki, Lagerbielke or Phillips better than Starfelt?
Are Holm or Bernardo better than Mooy?
Are Yang Or Palma better than Jota
Is Tillio better than Abada?
Obviously we can't comment on the ones we have not seen. Did we need to strengthen some of these areas.
3.) 01 Sep 2023 21:21:06
100% we strengthened. Rocky, Lager and Phillips much better than Starfelt, Kobyashi and Iwata as CB options. I'm sure our 2 new young midfielders will contribute much more than an ageing Mooy. Every chance Yang and Palma can be as hood as Jota. And why does Tillio need to be better than Abada? Tillio should replace Forrest and provide competition for Abada.
08 Feb 2025 16:48:39
I thought the same and if you're Kenny you've got to be wondering what you need to do to get a start.
21 Aug 2023 21:31:31
Got to assume it's a result of new training methods because it's too many at the same time for them all to be unrelated.
I think CCv will be wrapped in cotton wool and will be deployed against Sevco.
It's a real concern having him out the team, we seek to he hapless without him.
{Ed007's Note - How many injuries have happened in training? Nawrocki was nursing an ankle injury a few weeks back but he played 90 mins on that pitch yesterday which is what is causing the problem - if it is true he is actually injured. Oh was injured in Forrest's testimonial, CCV's injury is a kick on from his injury last season as is AJs.....
So what's wrong with the training? Maybe Rodgers should have came out like the previous manager and said he expected a lot of injuries at first because of his training methods, it might be blamed on the players rather than the manager like before, as professional athletes, they should be fit enough.}
18 Aug 2023 14:58:17
Never really had a season where he's played enough to show he's continually progressing but he's been solid when he's been in and his passing accuracy for a CB is class. He'll ddo well under BR I think.
12 Jul 2023 12:12:07
Aye and when JF leaves we can sit around and question his loyalty to the club. People are deranged going on about Jota and Ange leaving and how they never loved the club but pushing JF out the door every window.
JF imo has earned the opportunity to finish his career with Celtic and while he might be on a decent wage, it's not going to bankrupt the club to repay the loyalty and service of the man. I'm sure more than once in his career he's had the chance to move elsewhere for big bucks but didn't go.
06 Jul 2023 19:13:51
Biggest surprise was finding out he's only 25 ? he looks older than Brenda!
You can never underestimate a player who works as hard as he does. I think he'll come on leaps and bounds under the new manager.
31 Jan 2025 23:20:59
Shankland scored a hat trick against us but we still managed a 4-3 win, not sure if the exact date but probably the most recent.
18 Nov 2024 14:08:21
I grew up in the Garngad but moved to the Clydebank area at 15, want to try and get my boys through for some games when they're a bit older, the oldest is only 2 just now but think it would be a good way to spend a day with them!
29 Oct 2024 12:34:14
I think that the price tag has given misguided expectations regarding Engels.
BR said he's come from playing one game a week which he said is a holiday compared to Celtic. He's performed well and has shown bags of talent and I think it's important to remember he's only 21 and has to get used to the physical demands of our calendar. To keep progressing and improving the squad, these are the type of prices Celtic will need to pay in today's market but I don't think any player coming in is going to be the finished article but as BR said, it's his job to get them there.
With Kuhn it's slightly different because of the issues he has when he joined but Engels has come in to our most competitive part of the team to get in and Bernardo hasn't put a foot wrong, Hatate on his day is superb and Calmac is the captain so going to be the first name on the teamsheet. Add in McCowan then you have to appreciate that you're not going to play every game.
Arne has also been the target of some harsh challenges in our league as well because of his price tag and people will want to get one over on him but I think he'll adjust and become a real leader on the park.
15 Jul 2024 13:20:13
Looks like the Villa keeper will be coming in to be bedded into squad.
17 May 2024 16:36:53
After Seville, I was 10 years old and absolutely devastated.
