Couldn't agree more Tim! And on penalties to hahaha! Cheered me rite up on a wet and miserable nite 😜😜😜.

Am not bed wetting but is anyone a little bit miffed that we haven't done more? I know Rangers are some considerable way behind, but hate the fact they have outspent us. Also if Aberdeen do the business they are reported to do, and get in the signings.

I personally feel they will have a stronger team than this seasons. Fair play to them. Better league which is good. But if all we get in is mguinn Hayes, and a another squad player then that's simply not good enough.

Rodgers states we won't add to many squad players, just quality then sorry I am confused and yet to be proven wrong, but something is not right to me.

Can anyone else smell s**** oh it's just bigmick again.

27 Jun 2017 19:46:25
Give it up big Mick your clearly a zombie the mob from down govan are like a league 1 outfit signing all there players at the start of the window while all the big teams wait.

27 Jun 2017 19:50:53
Its just SevcoMick on trying to fulfil his fantasy of being a fan of the champions. lol HH.

27 Jun 2017 20:14:17
I don't think that it's anything to worry about.
Sevco are able to make so many signings because there is no competition for these players, if their signings were up to much you would think that other clubs might be interested in them and so the deals would take longer as the players weighed up their options.
Celtic on the other hand are likely to be after players who would be attracting interest from many clubs, so the deals inevitably take longer.
I read last week that there were 9 clubs interested in Patrick Roberts, Sevco don't have that problem with their signings.

27 Jun 2017 20:27:50
Mick the Whalloper is back. Am seething too Mick, the Sheep will be brilliant next year and wait a minute Sevco have signed Internationally acclaimed personnel that will make them a wee bit better than last season but let's face it that won't be hard😀. Hail Hail.

27 Jun 2017 22:25:00
Mick hayes cost more than the sevco galacticos so behave yerself.

If the window shut today I'd be confident of qualifying for CL and winning the league by 15+ points. The club are doing the right thing by waiting to see who becomes available in order to recruit the very best players within our budget. My only worry currently is the Armstrong contract situation. He's completely within his rights to wait and assess his options but he'd be a big loss.

27 Jun 2017 11:29:17
My thoughts are the same Kev, Armstrong is a must to get signed up on a new deal asap. I think the only piece of business that will be done in the transfer market before qualifiers will be McGinn coming in. I'm sure we'll have more than enough to get through qualifiers with what we have then hopefully show our financial strength with a couple of real quality signings. Rather have it this way than buying for the sake of buying, we've been stung before doing that.

27 Jun 2017 13:18:32
McGinn is not good enough yet for us

Signing him now would be for the sake of buying

Let's see how he does this year, another Scot Allan scenario this is.

27 Jun 2017 13:19:29
Totally agree about Armstrong lads, Need that sorted ASAP! But I feel we definitely need another centre half brought in! The first couple of qualifiers should be fine but there's a few decent teams in that play off round and still feel it's a weak point. big jozo has looked the part, but while I give boyata credit for working his way back in the 2nd half of last season, I still feel he ain't good enough for CL football.

27 Jun 2017 14:16:37
the team from last season will win the league no bother so it is not a disaster if no one comes apart from hayes disappointing yes, as for armstrong he has had one really good season so let's not go overboard in trying to keep him if he is looking to go let him he is easier to replace than moussa or griff or paddy.

27 Jun 2017 14:55:03
Win the league yes IMO But qualifying for the CL. Not so confident depending on how the draw goes at the later rounds I would prefer to have one or two more in just to be sure but I am one of those just in case sort of people.

27 Jun 2017 16:21:34
We'd all love to have our business done before a ball is kicked tony I agree but we qualified last season and the difference between the squad now and 12 months ago is night and day. We've now got Brown and Armstrong forging a great partnership, Dembele and Siclair fully bedded in and ripping teams apart, a fully fit Jozo and Craig Gordon looks far less shaky - these things should be enough to see us through qualification. I repeat, "should".

27 Jun 2017 16:42:46
Kev T you can't put McGinn in the same category as the Scott Allan scenario. For starters Allan had been down south and couldn't hack it before he went to Hibs. I would be more likely to put him in the James McCarthy scenario when when we missed the boat when he went to Wigan.

27 Jun 2017 19:30:16
Speaking of missed boats. fletcher (not my cup of tea) but someone a lot of fans were upset about not signing.
I say if McGinn has potential let's get him in and give him a shout.
I maintain the only reason we signed Scott Allan was because we could and it would flex or muscles over The tribute act.
