Great news, Ledley is a brilliant player just like Sutton doesn't get credit he deserves, HAIL HAIL SUPER JOE

Agree1 Disagree2

Just been reported in the Daily Fail that he is for the offski partly due to the calibre of player that has left and subsequent replacements :(

I hope you're right mate, but the papers are telling us a different story this morning.
He's one player that we cannot afford to lose!
Come on Mr Lawwell, get the finger out!

Neil Lennon wants a quality striker. I found it interesting he said that there is room to break the wage structure slightly if necessary and that Celtic had to be "inventive" when moving for a striker. Possibly a player plus cash deal for Finnbogason?

Believable5 Unbelievable22

I don't understand why if they are prepared to break the wage structure they didn't do this to keep Hooper for another season or to land Finbogasson in the close season. If this is the case and we are going to shell out on a striker in Jan, I'd be interested to see what it would take to get Steven Fletcher. {Ed007's Note - Hooper's decision to leave had nothing to do with money and I will be amazed if we spent any serious money in January.}

Agree0 Disagree0

If we're not in Europe I doubt we'll see a decent signing at all. We "MIGHT" have "£2-3m" to spend in January, according to Lennon. That for me means we'll only see it spent if we're still in some sort of European competition; Otherwise we'll see hee haw.

Ed is right about Hooper's reasons for leaving the club but Lubos Laces hits it on the head for me. I was in the 'we haven't spent enough to adequately replace the players that have left' camp in the summer.

Now, as a result of our lack of ambition, we're going to have to spend as much as we should have spent originally, but on quantity rather than quality. We could possibly end up with 5 strikers, none of which are going to be the answer in taking us forward.

Agree0 Disagree0

Agree with above comments with all the cash (approx £30 million left) why not use it to bring in a couple of bums on seats signings, why was it not done straightaway?who gets the money if not the team, I for one would love to know where this cash goes or has gone

Agree0 Disagree0

In January, and indeed at any time, if we can't buy quality, we should leave the money in the bank for now. As for Bangura, 6 goals in 27 matches is not what we need.

Apparently Celtic are looking at 22 year old Chinese midfield player Zhang Xizhe from Beijing Guoan?

Believable10 Unbelievable10

Just as spfl sign a deal with Chinese broadcasters were looking at a Chinese player maybe another money making exercise

Agree1 Disagree0

Yeah PL and JP looked at him the other night when SFA and PL were over agreeing a deal for tv rights in china. SPFL matches are to be screened in china I think as of next season?

Agree0 Disagree0

I was a bit cynical myself Dez and no idea how credible the rumours is!

Agree0 Disagree0
