Hi ED just wondering have u heard anything about the Coetzee medical saw a report suggesting that the medical has shown a problem with the boy?

{Ed007's Note - Rivaldo Coetzee will return to Ajax Cape Town.}

26 Aug 2017 20:44:36
Broken bone in his right foot?

26 Aug 2017 21:31:35
Is this the same injury he sustained just before we made a deal with his club or something else that's shown up?

{Ed007's Note - It seems to be.}

26 Aug 2017 21:27:40
Oh well hope the boy is alright that will have us signing nae body now then PR will no happen and defence will have to do the wae we are PL will be happy not having to spend money.

26 Aug 2017 20:50:15
Spoke about this on the live chat. boys got a problem in his right foot so transfer can't get completed. hopefully there's another centre half on the radar! Heard on the radio earlier ED that Brendan was in Paris on Friday and they mentioned the boy duverne. i know uve spoke about this guy before, any info buddy? Really hope we bring in a quality centre back!

{Ed007's Note - I don't know if Rodgers met Jean Kevin Duverne mate.}

26 Aug 2017 22:08:42
Can't c it happening I thought he was at the draw for CL but it won't be long now to see what's what that's no Celtics fault but I am hoping that something can be done but it's a slim hope.

{Ed007's Note - The draw for the CL is in Monaco so if he was specifically in Paris it's nothing to do with the draw. I wouldn't completely write off the chances of Coatzee signing btw.}

26 Aug 2017 22:11:34
It was on Snyde to be fair ED so probably pish! Lol. they just mentioned Brendan had been in Paris and the name duverne got mentioned! Hope we've got a few things in the pipe line ED!

{Ed007's Note - Ed002's going to try and find out if there's any news on Duverne over the weekend, probably Monday now.}

26 Aug 2017 22:26:03
Nice one ED 👍🏻 Well we'll all be put out our misery by Thursday, hopefully we'll get some get some good news! Lol.

{Ed007's Note - I'm sure we will, oh yeah of little faith.}

27 Aug 2017 00:47:35
Do you honestly think we will have signings in by Thursday ED? I am not so sure.

{Ed007's Note - I'm 100% confident we will, Ricardo. Now after me, Hail Mary full of Grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed are thou...........

27 Aug 2017 00:58:57
100% ED! Putting your neck on the line there mate! I admire your confidence lol! I'll just wait til Thursday to see. been here so many times with our club and been let down! But I live in hope lol.

{Ed007's Note - My bags are packed, if we've not signed anyone I'm off to do missionary work in Blantyre!}

27 Aug 2017 01:04:37
If we need to wait until January for Rivaldo then so be it.

{Ed007's Note - I'm actually quite surprised that the deal has supposedly been called off over what has been reported as a minor injury. Maybe some further examinations will put our medical staffs minds at rest. The lad's been comfortably playing, called up to play for South Africa and people said the medical was a formality. We paid 4 times the money on Kouassi and I think this deal might yet go through.}

27 Aug 2017 01:15:27
That's as good a place as any to lay low for a while ED! Haha!

{Ed007's Note - I'm sitting here in the dark on my tablet because the TV in the bedroom died and with Grotbags snoring and snorting like a pig next to me because she's up at 5 for work. I'm living the fecking dream mate - and I don't know if that smell is coming from Grotbags or Yoda!
Blantyre doesn't sound so bad now does it?}

27 Aug 2017 01:39:41
If we were willing to give him a medical with a supposed pulled hammy then this wee bone shouldn't pose too many problems surely. Another CB on top of him has to be a priority though.

27 Aug 2017 01:52:57
Saw a suggestion that there was a bone not fused right on the boys foot I hope we do get one or two in but would not surprise me if we didn't don't want to get too much hope as don't want to get mayor let down.

27 Aug 2017 08:45:56
Looking back on previous windows I'm preparing myself to feel let down again. We have been in this position at many transfer windows recently, leave stuff to the end . Then when they fall through we hear the same guff from the board saying "it's a difficult window, something went wrong at the last minute, player had his head turned by an opportunity somewhere else. At the minute with the injuries, paddy not being here I definitely think we are worse off than last season . I'd love 2-3 players around the same mould of ntcham to come in for once ( obviously I mean in different positions )

27 Aug 2017 09:59:39
Celtic will be looking at his sell on value. Any potential to screw that up and we back off. Remains to be seen how serious the situation is. I hope we can work this out because we need a player of that type of ability.

27 Aug 2017 02:26:13
Haha grotbags, Now there's a blast from the past! Been with a few in ma time who make grotbags look like Cindy Crawford mate! Lol! That was in ma binge drinking days but, good times 😂😂😂.

{Ed007's Note - Lol we've all been there.}

27 Aug 2017 11:37:29
heard we are going for scandanavian Termund Giantsbane. imposing character he stands at 9'2".

experience in Eros and the NOTW league where is recent stats in last game is 53 tackles of which resulted in 52 confirmed kills

he has a low pass completion rate and when asked about this he said "whats a pass".

sporting a recent head gash and spear injury - but nothing the physio was threaten not to mention.

just what we need.

27 Aug 2017 15:17:05
Oh and of course a good record against zombies.

26 Aug 2017 11:03:35
From what I hear, paddy Roberts deal is off now Brendan is gona make a move for James mcclean, 6million or a winger from Newcastle duno who it's ment to b though, maybe Matt Ritchie but he could b too much money.

26 Aug 2017 11:20:45
Yer awfy in the no matt who's yer source.

26 Aug 2017 11:33:54
Matt - come on

McClean for 6 million. This lad isn't good enough for us and neither is Matt Ritchie or any Newcastle player for that matter.

Roberts is a class act, you don't go from Roberts to this dross if your looking to improve.

26 Aug 2017 12:50:03
I think they should leave PR cause going with What ED says is that PR wants to come on Loan not permanently I would be saying we are moving on cause there is not one player bigger than the club.

26 Aug 2017 13:40:15
I like everyone on hear would absolutely love wee paddy to come back! But to say this has dragged on long enough is an understatement! If we pin all our hopes on us getting him and have no back up plan I'll be seriously pissed off! This is all to familiar to me when it comes to our transfer dealings! If by next Thursday nite we've only added the young SA centre back I'll be raging! Especially after seeing the prices for the CL package! Not so much mine but the price for youngsters is scandalous! 90 pound for my 14 year old nephew, ripping the pish so they are! So I'll repeat, if we only add coatzee I'll be raging! Come on lawell act like the CL club your so more than happy to announce we are!

26 Aug 2017 13:51:56
To be honest we'd be better tracking someone else. They'll leave it to late and bring no one in.

26 Aug 2017 13:55:24
Hoopy88are you in there?

26 Aug 2017 13:58:21
Just read below so not hoops maybe skinnybhoy.

26 Aug 2017 14:08:10
My mate an his dad have excustive box at parkhead I work for them, last year they told me about signing dembele weeks affore it was even announced, been a good source of information for past few years! There totally celtic die Hard's! His dads been a season ticket holder for like 40 years soo he's seen it all the big chap also got many wrong but don't we all there adamant paddy Roberts ain't coming have been for weeks.

26 Aug 2017 14:12:34
Also James mc clean might be a bit a risk but one things for sure he is gona give u 100% wearing the top of the club he adores wouldn't mind Matt Ritchie would b very similar type of player to commons would score for fun in scotland, don't know about Europe though both would be welcome in my eyes.

26 Aug 2017 20:08:44
a very similar player to commons.

there endeth the post.

26 Aug 2017 20:21:13
Deal for South African centre half is off, failed medical, who now.

27 Aug 2017 08:58:52
Mclean wound be a disaster. Football and PR wise. What are bothering when we have already signed the new Reggie.

29 Aug 2017 10:02:24
Well Matt, you will need to get on to your pals who are in the know and let them know, what they knew was a figment. To be fair they are in a massive group who had s feeling and passed it off as fact.

Hope you rip the Pish out of them. And avoid believing them next year. 😀.
