Right I know transfer budgets etc. Ain't my strong point and I know being covered but still don't truly understand it to be honest but how is that horrible mob able to spend money no problem especially after spending 8 million onwards on a striker yet we are her recalling and on loan that was deemed not good enough!
13 Jan 2026 18:51:23
I feel for the club, mon and us as fans, we have some quality injured we have some poor signings, we've spent ans wasted money,
And undoubtedly put ourselves in this position, listening to Mon saying we need to supplement squad screams to me we will get quality signings on loan, will they be Robbie Keane quality etc I doubt it but I think that's prob what mon has in mind,
As a club we clearly want players of a better quality but in my opinion we are looking in a bracket of player below that and that's leading us to buy at risk, if Celtic want to get quality and want better players we need to resource them, scout them from a better pool of players than what we currently do, or we will fall back like we are at present and be on par with sevco, and European teams below where we want to be, striving to be on par with the big Dutch teams, Brugge even a mitjeland is where we should be but it's just wether we will get the people in place to take us there, we are only a transfer window and few players away, but 5mill players they won't be, Engels still has time on his side to live up to the price but we need more signings of the same ilk in my opinion.

Is Griffith's still about🤣.

Gerry,
LG would still score some of the chances we've created in the last 10 games or so.
# going to elper.

You'd think with jota and ccv out for season and AJ and osmand looking like March wee mick might have got a move on going g to Airdrie tomorrow night half way through window with no striker 😭.

It's good to see martin standing his ground by looking to get his own players in. I can just imagine the rubbish that the French fraud had lined up am sure they were world beaters . wee o neill can spot a player hopefully he has 3or4 on there way as we badly need them and soon.
i would like to see at least two new players playing against Hearts . i'm more hopeful now that Martin has had his say on incomings.
13 Jan 2026 15:58:04
Many of us will have watched today's MON interview. He reassures us he is actively involved in assessing new recruits. He wants players in, they must be a good fit, and he has co-operation of the Board. At least we know he is not dithering. He re-iterated that January is tricky but is hopeful of getting players he needs.
13 Jan 2026 16:28:35
That puts to bed the theory of " the club signing players and not the manager"! At least we should get good signings if MON is running the rule over them👍.
13 Jan 2026 16:40:53
He also said to "help the players until the end of the season at least' which implies it's mainly loans.
13 Jan 2026 16:58:03
Heard we sign muzzy izzet this week.
13 Jan 2026 17:31:21
MON did say some might come in until the summer, which suggests loans. Either way they will be what he wants and thinks he needs.
The good thing is he has discarded some players offered and I wonder if Ta Bi was one of them.
There are numerous stories around why that one was binned but we will probably never get the real reason from our media, it will be that we were outbid by an EPL club.
My reading is we jumped before they were interested. The player was even interviewed and said he was coming here and had turned down other clubs.
The other south American right winger we were are looking at, looks a better player imo.
Going to be a really twitchy few weeks.
13 Jan 2026 18:25:13
We can't compete with EPL club! Seemingly Ta Bi need knee surgery.

Martin O'Neill revealed that he has passed on some of the options presented to him by the Celtic recruitment team." (Shockeroony! ) .
'I'd love to blame other people but it's down to me' the 73-year-old said on the current pace of transfer dealings.
'Unless you've identified a player that you absolutely know is going to improve your team and you're prepared to spend money on him, I think it becomes more difficult.
(Translated the board would have had a dozen players in - and they'd have been cheap - but they'd have been donkeys) .
13 Jan 2026 17:03:32
It certainly looks like the quantity over quality policy is still happening. Are they recruiting via 'You Tube and Internet Sites or are genuine qualified experienced scouts out in winter months actually looking? Some other manager may have gone along with these proposals, so at least MON knows exactly what he wants.
I really hope they don't let him and the supporters down yet again; as too much is at stake.

'Asleep at the wheel' could well take on a new meaning the way this season is panning out.
Media talk is of Roberto Martinez potentially taking over at Celtic after this summers world cup, and suggests that after the boards disastrous appointmemt of Wilifred Nancy, DD 'will play the long game' regards getting Martinez."
Our supporters deserve the best manager in the dugout and the very best team on the park but our board doesn't.
This current board have systematically, season after season, sold our very best players, essentially asset stripping, and replaced them with inferior ones.
This has been referred to as our 'player transfer model'.
The issue now is the current first team squad has been weakened to the point where they lost the SC last May, couldn't score against a team from Khazakstan to qualify for the CL, and most recently were battered by St. Mirren in the LC final.
The current first team squad is a pale imitation of the teams that have gone before them in recent seasons.
The problem now is there is very little, if anything, left to sell, so I'm not sure where that leaves the 'player transfer model'.
Unless this board changes the way in which it operates, dramatically, including overhauling the footballing structure of the club, as well as repairing it's relationship with the very life blood of Celtic F. C. the supporters, then any manager operating at the level of Roberto Martinez should steer well clear of Celtic F. C. and the imposters who run it.
The custodians of our club really need to stop the back slapping, take the blindfolds off and get their house in order."
We have a fantastic football club with a wonderful, unbroken history to be proud of but those in charge are committing self harm for reasons only known to them.
Unfortunately those in charge at the wheel have taken their eye off the road and I fear an almighty crash is about to take place.
I sincerely hope I'm wrong.

Good post Pedro.
A mess of a club.
But that's what you get if you have no football strategy at the club.
We are all waiting in signings but the real issue is we are currently set up to fail as football business.
MN is clearly not up to being a CEO.
So unless Martin uses his contacts or the new guy from Chelsea can magic something up…. We are going nowhere.
We can't let this rudderless ship continue much longer. It's only going to run aground… and cause lasting damage.
I'm very much now thinking the league is slipping away. We need to force change. i'm up for a full boycott of home games now.
Imagine we were a house builder with no land bank or a supermarket without any supply chain.
This board beggars belief.
But until we have a proper football strategy in place, nothing is going to change.
{Ed007's Note - MON & SM have went through the players Tisdale had lined up and turned them down and now our entire scouting/data system is basically starting from scratch under SM and Bell-Walker.}
13 Jan 2026 17:03:24
Ed,
Quite … bad planning ( especially in getting them in the first place ) Chief scout, manager and Tisdale all gone at once. Tells you something about our CEO.
13 Jan 2026 09:07:42
Ed do you know why some of my posts are not appearing? Is there a technical problem?
{Ed007's Note - I can't see anything wrong mate, if it keeps happening give me a shout and I'll get Ed033 to have a proper look at it 👍🏻

Dermot Desmond is an evil billionaire Joe, he's eventually got sick of you blasting the board and has created a giant laser to intercept your posts 🤣.
13 Jan 2026 16:04:36
That gives me another reason to want them gone. 🤣.
13 Jan 2026 16:31:58
Were they positive posts and Ed thought it was spam🤣.
13 Jan 2026 19:00:56
Joe, Eds probably got his computer set to auto delete for any of your posts that contain the word 'board'.

What is this sorcery from the likes of Real Madrid and Chelsea, sacking managers and appointing new ones the next day, surely against the rules, if they are allowed to get away with this it will only escalate and they will probably sign new players next.
13 Jan 2026 13:23:59
The Real manager was the 2nd team manager he was already employed by Madrid.
13 Jan 2026 16:51:01
The point still stands up Rayman, they had a plan.
