Why would any of these players come to paradise let's be honest celic fans or not these bhoys want need and are good enough to play in the epl. We should be looking at younger players that dont just come here for 6 months or a year to top.up the pension fund. I wonder when the rumours of mcgeady larsson sutton hartson will start circulating again

Hail hail

Billybhoy the realistic bhoy

Agree0 Disagree0

No matter how thinly its sliced its still baloney.

Agree0 Disagree0

Time to give up on this keane rumour he's not joining celtic at this point in his career. He slated the poor quality of the spl and would rather be in the epl. Its possible he'll come back in a couple of seasons towards the end of his career.

Agree0 Disagree0

Fantasy football lads, if only .....
We nned to set our sights outside the over priced over paid epl.
Need to get rid of 6-8 fringe players maybe that would fund a decent keeper and striker.
Rule out all of the above Ithink , thou Keane would be a great addition(fantasy football)

Agree0 Disagree0

Dunno if anyone saw the back end of last season, Keano @ West Ham? He looked shockin, lost the pace of the game and his shooting had deserted him. Not the answer.

Stokesy should apologise for whatever he's done to pi$$ Lenny off and him n Hoops are good to go. They make a sh*t-hot strike force.

Just received a text from a pal who ahs been caddying for the celebs and pro's at cstle stuart ahead of the open, he ended up caddying for a certain mr desmond, who was in talks all day via mobile with someone with regards to incomings (he overheard) Bellemy is looking like a cert, Given a no go due to wages and are still trying to get forster from newcastle, he even slipped my pal £200 quid for lumping his bag around. (Nothing to gain from this info, im a hibee and hes a Dons supporter.

Maybe in the know

Believable10 Unbelievable25

Rumour from a couple of birdies or is there a hole in one?

Agree0 Disagree0

Keanes wages are a no? Yet Bellamy is a cert? Yeah that makes sense Bellamy would cost more on wages

Agree0 Disagree0

Givens wages actually but see where ur coming from

neil lennon to defo make a bid for tomas cerny from hamilton around 300k the best value for money keeper we can get. give too expensive and too old, forster too expensive and looked very shaky with cross balls and kick outs, darren randolf good shot stopper but not stood out enough.

How many times must I say this...
HE'S FREE TO SIGN FOR ANYONE RIGHT NOW

So given the fact he has been so since 1st July says a lot for his standing with Lenny or anyone else for that matter.

Latest GK to be linked is Matt Gilks from Blackpool

Believable17 Unbelievable31

Miko, Ed007 got TWO posts on other side enjoying it, actually got one bear sticking up for my right to post banter on a banter site but also got the usual idiots posted again telling them to abuse me but make it FUNNY I even offered to help with a few jokes Timalloy

Agree0 Disagree0

Am sure we were linked with him a while ago i think lennon was at the last game of the season against man u

Agree0 Disagree0

He's free so would be a good to get him in for starters even if he eventually is just a backup.

HH
/BB

Agree0 Disagree0

He's a great shot-stopper. My guess is his signing wouldn't immediately win over the fans as he's not as tried and tested as the rest of the names we've been linked with but I reckon if he did sign he could turn out to be an excellent piece of business.

Agree0 Disagree0

Well i have seen that he has signed on again at blackpool so that is another player u have missed out on {Ed007's Note - Did CFC say he was a target?}

Agree0 Disagree0

Gilks wont come to parkhead he, s a rangers fanatic and just to prove we like rangers fans on here go ahead and send in your banter which I wont publish ...so miko was right the foul mouthed little git.hail hail he, s oot on bail..

Celtic to sign Bobby Zamora (£3.75m) & Paul Robinson (£2.5m). done deal i'm told
Declan F. {Ed007's Note - Welcome to the site Declan}

Believable13 Unbelievable55

I hope not. Zamora has had 1 good season in the EPL (probably 2 good seasons in his entire career...the other being at Brighton). I admit i like his style but if we are to have a consistent partner for Hooper we need someone to share the goal scoring burden and i doubt Zamora is capable of that.

I hope its Robinson the GK from Blackburn? I would happily take the him for our No #1, asides for a few blunders during his England career he has proved himself a very good goalkeeper.

Agree0 Disagree0

ZAMORA HAS ALREADY PLAYED IN THE EUROPA LEAGUE THIS SEASON SO DONT THINK THIS WILL HAPPEN.

Agree0 Disagree0

Unfortunatley mate your living in Dream land, Zamora is a full England international why would he want to take at least a 20k per week paycust to come to us?

Agree0 Disagree0

2 good signings if we can get them, seriously doubt the figures though. maybe a player exchange involving samaras for zamora more plausable

Agree0 Disagree0

Paul Robinson is the best keeper in Britain. Why would Rovers sell hime for 2.5 million get real {Ed007's Note - Best GK in Britain? Get real}

Agree0 Disagree0

He was certainly the best in the premier league last season and his value is nearer 10 million than 2.5 {Ed007's Note - I think VDS, Cech, Hart, Reina etc would disagree about that. I wasn't commenting on his price just on your comment that he was the best GK in Britain last year, read this and come back to me about it:

www.premierleague.com/page/Top10Keepers

Agree0 Disagree0

Correct again Ed007, why would one of the best keepers in epl come to Scotland, would it be the drop in wages or no competition he's looking for?

Agree0 Disagree0

Zamora is fulhams highest payed player on 55k... and he would tear apart the spl.

Just seen this hope that the offer put to him by Hoffenheim are along the lines of Rangers 5k a week.

South African club Kaizer Chiefs have accepted Celtic s offer to sign Zimbabwean striker Knowledge Musona for £1.6 Million.


The 21-year-old is currently in Germany talking with Hoffenheim who finished 11th in the League last season despite signing giant players like Edson Braafheid and Ryan Babel.

The Kaizer Chiefs manager, Bobby Motaung will travel with Knowledge to Germany and said the following:

There s nothing wrong with their (Celtic s) offer, but they need to wait in line. They were the second team to put in an offer for Musona, so we have to operate using our ethics code. If the player doesn t agree terms in Germany, then Celtic will get their chance.

If the talks are successful, the transfer will be concluded almost immediately and Knowledge will be heading to Germany before the start of the new season.

Knowledge scored 15 goals in 26 starts and 3 subs for the Kaizer Chief and has scored 4 goals in 9 caps for Zimbabwe since 2010.

Celtic apparently ready to move for Motherwell goalkeeper Darren Randolph. Apparently a cash plus player loan deal being looked at with Liam Gormley who started out at Motherwell going to Fir Park on a season long loan deal.

Believable8 Unbelievable44

I quite like Randolph, thought he had a pretty good season last year and I don't think there would be much trouble getting him, just think if we waited to see what happens with Izi, Kayal & Ki to see what funds are there and maybe go up market a little (that's if we can find any proven quality players that wanna play in the SPL)

Agree0 Disagree0

He's not good enough full stop we need a class keeper

Agree0 Disagree0

How many class keepers are going to be willing to join us?

Agree0 Disagree0

There is a few really good goalkeepers that would jump at the chance to sign for celtic like didier ovono of le mans , Given said he would come depending on what city say .

But i would not touch Randolph as he made to many mistakes last season mainly against rangers.

i heard that brighton are interested in glenn loovens, there may be a god in heaven after all

Believable62 Unbelievable13

Please let it be true, he really is the most untalented player to ever wear the hoops.what a p***k...

Agree0 Disagree0

Great in the air but a total pudding when ball is played in behind him. wont be upset if he went on a free, ecstatic if we get 800,000

Agree0 Disagree0

When is Loovens's contract up? Can't beleive we got rid of caldwell and McManus for this pudding. get rid either on a free or a nominal fee.

Sorry Glen but no where near what's expected of centre halves to pull on the famous hoops {Ed007's Note - He has a year to go on his current contract}

Agree0 Disagree0

Neil Lennon have changed his mind, He just forget about buying new goalkeeper and let Zaluska be number one so he can keep his busy on buying players.
Crag Bellamy or Eric Huseklipp.

The whole Bellamy saga is so tiring. The fact is he would play half the games at best and cost a fortune which we don't have. The money would be better spent on a younger fitter striker and a goalkeeper which we need desperately.

The word in the north west is that Liverpool want to open negotiations with Lenny over Izzy when we return from Oz. Starting offer is £7.5 mil with add ons. Kayak is staying fir another year.

Celtic have also enquirer about De Nigris but his wage demands have dampened our enthusiasm. Huseklepp is a more realistic target but mid table epl teams such as Stoke and Blackburn are sniffing.

Just picked this up from another site from a Hearts fan talking to one of the back room staff.

I herd that Ross Tokely is a target for us (Hearts). Not sure how much legs this one has but was also told that Celtic are looking at him. Would be okay if Wallace goes.

Believable7 Unbelievable39

What the hell would we want with a person like tokely he's found his level at ICT we've had enough of useless t**ts in the past without starting to resign more

Agree0 Disagree0

Either you or the guy on the Hearts site is in the wind up, poor one at that

Agree0 Disagree0

Sorry ed is this guy suggestion that wee sine ross tokens but wee dont no how many legs he hiz, cos am no hivin it ed, pippoossso ppaatt, ahve jist realized thit ahv goet a stutttttttterrrrr eeeeeeedddddd, kinell

Agree0 Disagree0

Ross Tokely is:

A.) A thug, and a poor player.
B.) Celebrating signing a new deal at ICT.

Maybe the Hearts boy meant we were also looking at Wallace along with R****rs??
