Never again will I criticise Sinclair.
The character he showed to step up and take full responsibility when called upon made me one proud Celtic fan.
Its courage like that, helps you win championships. Well done Scotty.

For all the pelters the guy has been taking he is still chipping away with goals and to be fair, his form has dipped this season but it's not through lack of trying. It's a confidence thing.

He has scored a lot of goals, even when not playing great.

His performance was excellent tonight.

Every players has good games and bad games but from day 1 Sinclair has each season, contributed a good goal and assist return each season.

His overall total for us is I think 137 app 52 goals which works out a better ratio of goals per game than Laudrup did for that mob yet the media seem to slate him whenever he has an off day.

I'm not a fan but you can't argue with his stats. He had a great game tonight.

Agree0 Disagree0

His goal tonight was his 55th.

Have been a critic of Sinclair myself however he was excellent against St Mirren and there has definately been an upturn in form over the last few games (with the exception of Sevco where they were nearly all useless)

Im sure everyone is willing him back to the form of a couple of years ago, a consistent in form Sinclair makes a huge difference to the team at the top end of the park.

How's it going troops. I've got to say I find it hard to believe that a manager of Brendan Rodgers pedigree would allow transfers in which he has had no say. Would he have even taken the job if he was told he wouldn't be signing players? I doubt it.

The media are finding it difficult to slag us off for poor signings in this transfer window cos 2 of them have banged in 2 goals each in their first 2 games and we’ve signed another one who’s goals to games ratio last season was better than Larsson’s. So what do they do?

They try and create a story out of a throw away comment by BR, claiming it shows he doesn’t know what’s going on and he’s not happy with the signings and as usual, half of us fall for it hook, line and sinker. It’s just Jabba trying to deflect from the fact that Sevco have signed a load of rubbish and they’ll be lucky to get third place this year.

Has bains time finally arrived? here's hoping.

No boyata? Is he injured?

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Jan 2019 18:55:39
Any reason as to why no Ralston even on the bench?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - He's injured along with Boyata.}

23 Jan 2019 19:30:37
Do you know what the injuries are or how long they are expected to be out?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - No.}

23 Jan 2019 19:31:00
We are picking up (and carrying) some amount of injuries this season.
That's the weakest bench for a while; considering we're without KT, Boyata, Ntcham, Griff, Eddy, Ralston, Rogic and waiting for Bayo.
Just as well we have that big squad then lol
Hope Burke gets off the mark tonight.

23 Jan 2019 22:13:37
Phliphlop I echo that I hope Bain gets a run in the team.

Reports in Ukraine saying we're signing Maryan Shved in the coming days, any info on him Ed?

Believable1 Unbelievable0

{Ed007's Note - I don't know anything about him as a player but Shved hasn't travelled to his club's training camp and Lviv vice president has confirmed the player is in negotiations with another club believed to be Celtic.}

I've read he's a left footer who prefers to play down the right, hoping he's maybe in the same mould as paddy Roberts, someone full of tricks and can light up a match.

Tambow I watched a video of him there what a left peg on the boy skillfull fast everything u want in a winger.

Agree1 Disagree0

23 Jan 2019 12:21:27
Another winger? I take it we must be offloading (or loaning out) a couple like Hayes and Morgan?
That still leaves Forrest, MJ, Burke, Sinclair, Arzani - when fit and the new fella. Assuming we play a variation of Bayo, Christie, Eddy, Weah and Griff in attacking roles - that's some amount of fire-power.
Could there be a bid coming in for Forrest, as speculated last week?

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Jan 2019 12:46:42
Looks like one for the summer once weah and Burke are away.

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Jan 2019 13:11:52
I don’t believe Forrest will be let go he’s imperative to our attack and I think he is a die hard Celt so he’s happy to stay, our attack is looking very very good pace skill and goals very exiting second half of the season, next season arzani will step into weahs boots and this new guy will provide a challenge to Forrest Rogic and Sinclair as he can play along the attacking 3, he looks good enough to take one of them places but time will tell, our defence will not be sorted out till summer when we have Izzy Gamboa Lustig Boyata commper Benkovic all going and probably Gordon too I think then we will se a gk lb rb and 2 cb come in our centre mid next year of mcgregor ncham eboue Christie would be fine and we have our attack sorted I’d say, things are looking good I think we will be much stronger next year and we are stronger now than the start of the season I’m happy with the way things are going 🍀 hail hail.

Good to see such a positive post Chris one trophy in the bag three more to play for lol good to see Valencia in turmoil still let’s get at them from the off on Valentine’s Day.

Watched some clips of the boy and he's very similar to paddy.

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Jan 2019 15:28:54
Maybe do a Brendan and make him a left back?

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Jan 2019 15:54:13
Happy if we get him But we need Defenders I really hope that we have atleast one targeted for this window And on a permanent contract Or atleast with an option.

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Jan 2019 22:28:19
The boy from Ukraine looks a player from the videos, he was high in demand at one point and Seville actually signed him but he couldn’t brake into there first team. Looks very similar to Roberts but seems to be a bit more direct. Think he’ll be eased in for next season. We have signed two boys there that seem to be hitting the ground running. Get Morgan out on loan to get some game time and move Hayes on. Would like to see a few more in for the qualifications in the summer as Benkovic and Boyata won’t be here but it’s all positive from me. Rogic still to come back and is Edouard so plenty of fire power. Next four weeks is huge now🍀.
