Got a proper rumour page story. My old man met Peter Lawwell in a pub in St Andrews last night, said he was really busy just now with it being the transfer window. Says he's working on a few deals in and out. Obviously no going to disclose stuff to my dad, but said there would be activity! No surprise big Pedro didn't put his hand in his pocket.

Pedro was in St Andrews buddy. I've not made up that He's said anything major. So why would my old man, make up that he was there. Are you in Dubai with Pedro?

Doubt Lawwell will be in Dubai Tim not at this time of year.

Agree0 Disagree1

Why anyone goes to Dubai is beyond me. Maybe a Sex in the City fan?

I certainly believe the bit about not buying a drink. That gives the story a persuasive truth element. Hopefully Peter, in between avoiding getting them in, was telling the truth about his schedule.

Shergar was acting up so he had to get back to his table, jimmy Hoffa couldn't calm him down and lord lucan was useless.

Agree0 Disagree1

He did say Henderson was away to Bari. That seems a bizarre move for him. he'd be great for a derby or bristol city.

Pedro was in my local Masonic Club tonight and said once they sell Sinclair to Wolves, move Dembele to Milan on loan and release Gordon so that he can join Ian Black at Tranent Juniors he will look to bring in a couple of new faces on loan or projects. Mind you he was rat arsed on Snakebites so I would take all of the aforementioned with a pinch of salt!

Bribhoy according to Brendan himself, Roberts not expected back playing until end of February, Rogic could be back end of January.

He is doing light training and looks to be on course for February return.

Been a real waste of money this loan deal with little return.

Hindsight obviously but surely we have a player in mind for a permanent transfer going forward

I’d love to see us go for Sebastian Giovinco - unsure of what he earns in the MLS but the kind of creative player we need for Europe.

Agree3 Disagree1

I’d imagine Paddy is the obvious choice for a permanent signing Kev.

Agree0 Disagree0

Gionvinco went to the MLS as the highest paid player at the time. He’s now been overtaken by Kaka and David Villa, but he’s on well over 100k a week.

Agree0 Disagree0

Paddy was outstanding last year and can only remember one injury he's been unlucky this year but as far as the loan we could have paid 6mill for him and he'd still be injured.

Agree0 Disagree0

13 Jan 2018 13:18:37
Yeah but he’d be our player if he signed.

Hopefully gets back fit and well soon as we could have done with him in late December.

Agree0 Disagree0

Would absolutely love it if we used the VVD money towards securing wee Paddy.

Agree1 Disagree0

13 Jan 2018 20:36:48
A fit on form Paddy is our best player. Hope we can secure him long term.

Agree1 Disagree0

14 Jan 2018 12:15:36
It's been a nightmare season for the wee man considering he had virtually no pre-season preparation and this contributed to his injuries and stop-start second spell.
He has proved what he can do when fit and confident and I would be delighted if we could secure PR on a long term deal.

Agree0 Disagree0

Thanks for the above info. Hopefully we can get a bit of spark back after the winter break. All the players firing on all cylinders makes for an exciting second half to the season.

A journalist, by the name of Duncan Castles, claims today, that Celtic are trying to FLOG Moussa Dembele in this window, due to needing the money in. From what he understands, the club needs the cash flow.

Is this another piece, straight out of Govan?

{Ed001's Note - Castles is a Mourinho man with his head very firmly up Jose's behind. He is nothing to do with Rangers. Most likely thing is that Mourinho is interested, hence the story.}

Just read the background on this, the articles and also opinions on the dark web.

they love it but clearly its a defection piece - they are reading this and not thinking about their own real problems.

Journalists get paid to talk and write, if they have nothing to say, they don't get pay, and they want people talking about their "opinion", as we all are now (apparently he's "highly respected" according to one of the minions.

earlier in the month he said celtic want to maximise the fee they get for him - that's not news, that's just common sense.

There's a word for people who believe stuff at face value with the facts not backing it up.

Thanks for the info Ed!
