Unbelievable36
Total nonsense, he will be SPL top scorer next season.
Agree0

Why would we even consider selling our top striker when there is no ready made replacement and if hoops did leave i think his ambitions would be a lot higher than newcastle
Agree0
Disagree0
For Celtic being in a Mickey Mouse Leauge
as said byPardew he has been linked with a lot of our players. Wee Eck.
Agree0

There was a rumour going about wen Carroll went to Liverpool , Newcastle put in a last min 4.5 mill bid, so ther could b some truth in this fresh bid

CELTICNEWS,
If Stipe pletikosa is fit and passes coaching tests this week he wiil receive a 2 year deal , this deal could go through for the 32 year old who has over 80 caps for croatia ASWEDE
This will give Lennon more funds towards players , A recomendation was passed on to the club from none other than van der sar....
Believable14
Unbelievable9
Is pletikosa not sill contracted to Spartak, so he would cost something.
Agree0
Disagree0
When did Van der sar become a scout for Celtic and how dus he even know Pletikosa.
Agree0
Disagree0
Van der sar is a friend from his juventus days of Mirko jozic who has been trying to get pletikosa a move in the uk. This is why van der sar has been giving advice through certain agents mckay etc.
Agree0

No we take over his contract, moskow just want him off thier books without a fee.

ed mate just heard from a good source we have offered 3 .6 million for gordon and offered him 36 000 a week he is said to be very keen and could sign as early as wednesday, ian turner formly of everton as also being chased by hoops as a possible sqaud player with cervic heading out on loan again this season
Believable5
Unbelievable17
Total crap, we will not pay 36 grand a week wages for a keeper on top of the transfer fee and dominic cervi has never been out on loan as of yet
Agree0
Disagree0
Cervi went out to dundee before they went into admin last year
Agree0
Disagree0
Agree. Think Gordon would be a quality signing but realistically, wages would be on a par with Brown and Maloney, around 20K p/w with bonuses. 3.6M for a keeper who could potentially be between the sticks for the next 5-10 years providing he stays free of injury seems like a bargain to me.
Agree0
Disagree0
And Cervi was on loan at dundee earlier in the year, dont think he played much though.
Agree0
Disagree0
Listen we wont get gordon for any less in wages have a day aff players of his caliber are priceless
Agree0
Disagree0
I'm friends with Ian Turner, I went to school with him both primary and high(Kippen/Balfron) He said he will never sign for either of the old firm, pretty sure he is signing for Preston, he has brought his family up in England and wants to stay down south
HBN
Agree0
Disagree0
If you were mates with Iain Turner then surely you'd be able to spell his name properly?
Anyway, he's been in the pro ranks for almost a decade and has under 100 appearances to show for it. Happy to pick up a wage then get loaned out for a few months at a time.

Believable16
Unbelievable9
The 2nd best team in scotland are trying to sign the 2nd best scottish keeper. match made in heaven (thats if he permanetly injured craig gordon passes a medical)
the tiger - beyond reproach
Agree0
Disagree0
Only reason mcgregor is scotlands no1 is because gordon is injured. if he wasnt he would be one of the top 5 keepers in the epl
Agree0
Disagree0
2nd best scottish keeper ? you're funny. btw who was in goals against bochum ? then again its only a friendly , mccoist is out of his depth

On Sundays Scottish Gossip on bbc apparently Stipe Pletikosa is flying in to have a trial with Celtic. He was on loan to Spurs last season haven't seen him in action as of late but he was a quality keeper a few years ago. Could be a major coup?
Lennons Lions.
Believable14
Unbelievable4
I thought he signed for Spurs last season, i could be wrong tho.
Agree0
Disagree0
The BBC Sunday Gossip is clearly that- gossip. It was quoting News of the World. Although, it could be true in as much as NOTW may well be have hacked Stipe Pletikosa's phone
Agree0
Disagree0
He signed a years loan with spurs which is now over.
did not get much of a look in but was a really good keeper 2/3 years ago
Agree0

Almunia from arsenal is talking to an unnamed club would u be happy if it were us ?
Believable6
Unbelievable20
No, makes a horrendous amount of mistakes, and isn't even that impressive when he isn't making mistakes. Mind you not totally confident in zaluska or forster if he comes back.
Agree0
Disagree0
Hell no he is less than useless An accident waiting to happen do not want him
Agree0

Hope to god this aint true, he's a disaster waiting to happen everytime the ball goes into penalty box

celtic to sign stephen ireland 5 million on monday
Believable9
Unbelievable3
Can't see Celtice spending that volume of money on any player any time soon.
Agree0
Disagree0
Highly unlikely causes nothing but trouble everywhere he goes
Agree0
Disagree0
He has just stated his desire to become a great aston villa player this season . Stop talkin pish . if we had 5m it wouldny be spent on him .
Agree0
Disagree0
I wish people would just not post instead of writing crap like this. He's begging Villa to give him a chance in the papers today
Agree0
Disagree0
Yeah and 10million for given, keane and bellemy. you playing champ manager or something. I am a tim but i realise we cant spend more than 2-3mill max on anyone never mind 50+k a week in wages.
Agree0
Disagree0
Lenny has made it clear a partner for Hooper and a goalkeeper are his targets.
Agree0
Disagree0
Hope not. Don't think he is worth all the hype he gets.

Neil Lennon has stated he has enquired about Craig Gordon. I think it would be a great signing but i heard there is also a few EPL teams looking including Arsenal. Sourse SSN
Believable14
Unbelievable7
As plenty of people have already said on here Gordon has a poor health record. Also if Sunderland are prepared to let him go it tells you something.
Agree0
Disagree0
Steip petikosa, i know spelling sucks here but i believe you will know who i mean, he is coming for trial with celtic next week, in bbc sunday scottish gossip and sunday papers. Would imagine a keeper with his history it would be more to get a feel of the place with a good chance of getting it wrapped up there and then.
Agree0
Disagree0
Nope out of our price range at 4million plus big wages.
Agree0
Disagree0
He didnt state he had enquired, just that he would be interested at the right price, but that it would be most likely out of our range.
Agree0
Disagree0
For anyone who has clicked disagree its also in the Sunday Mail today
Agree0
Disagree0
Why would arsenal sign him if sunderland think hes not good enough anymore in EPL
Agree0
Disagree0
Craig would be a good addition.....but that kinda fee will scupper it every time
Agree0
Disagree0
So he stated he would be interested at the right price but it would most probably be out our range. I would imagine he would have to make an enquiry as to what that price would be. Hence the statement of having made an enquiry or do you think he is just going to guess?
Agree0
Disagree0
I dont think anyone doubts his ability its because he has been injured and they have signed Westwood they are selling him. Lets be honest he is better than any keeper at the Emirates just now.
Agree0
Disagree0

Have heard from a good source that we will be signing a top German goal-keeper next week anyone else know about this ?
Believable12
Unbelievable12
We were linked with Timo Hildebrand again the other day. He's free after his contract at Sporting expired and at 32 would be a great addition.
Also this morning we've been linked with the Spartak keeper Stipe Pletikosa. He was on loan at Spurs last season and as he needs first team football to gain his place in the Croatian side. Again at 32 he would be a great signing and he has the pedigree that would be perfect for us IMHO.

/BB
Agree0

Hes not german i know but thats who we are getting, he is on trial when we come back from oz
Agree0

Both of these keepers would be top class signings for us hope the rumour are true on this one.
