"There's interest, there's no doubt about that but again it's down to finances, " he concluded.
"We'll hope to speak to Manchester City and see what his situation is and then maybe take it from there."
Neil Lennon quote on Skysports & they're both in Dublin...

Agree0 Disagree0

Jist gonni no dae that..........how?....jist goni noaaaahhhhhhhhh

Agree0 Disagree0

Yeah Neil Lennon did confirm at the pre-Ireland press conference (well according to Clyde 1) that we're opening talks with Bellamy. Whether it'll happen or not is another matter, but we're making a move for him, but only on loan. (if you don't believe me on this statement have a look on the usual sites - youtube or radio archive sites, Clyde 1 archive if they have one). It'll come down to money as per usual.

IMO we've as much chance as anyone interested. Even if we paid over the odds in wages I don't see most of the clubs interested also forking out his current wage (which I've heard is about 70k a week). He enjoyed his time here, has an affinity with the club and supporters and has the chance of silverware so if we only offered him 40k which IMO would be competitive with Championship and EPL sides interested (lower teams e.g. West Brom, QPR spring to mind) we might be in with a chance. {Ed007's Note - He is on 90k a week:

I think sell hooper to everton for 4 mill and use the money for bells and the giant holt then there will be no stopping us

Agree0 Disagree0

29 Jul 2011 22:35:04
i would like celtic 2 bring in a big target man and a goalkeeper instead of spending money on bellamy wages 4 only a season

i was thinking how bout Joe lewis from peterbrough or "loach" from watford for goalkeeper

and maybe someone like john carew or grant holt

wat do u think ?

Believable4 Unbelievable11

I would prefer if somfin was croncrete goin on instead aw this s**t wae bellllammmy n cooo

Agree0 Disagree0

We had the same scenario last year where lawell and lennon talked publicly about guy like sol campbell and jimmy bullard while bringing in hooper, kayal and izzy under the medias radar. Here is hoping this season is the same.

DG1981

Agree0 Disagree0

Aye grant holt will come fae norwich ya idiot he is worth 10 mill

Agree0 Disagree0

29 Jul 2011 22:19:27
if its true we r bringing in bellamy....

dont u think a goalkeeper is more important ??

Believable8 Unbelievable2

29 Jul 2011 22:12:10
never mind all this nonsense about the bellemys and goodwillies, we need a big target man for hoops to partner, this is not a rumour just a suggestion, why dont we go for emile heskey, NL ex team mate i believe, he has a year left on his contract, or even carew whom i believe is on a free at the mo

Believable2 Unbelievable12

The same emile hesky that couldnt score a goal if yae told the other team just tae go home? yae cin keep that suggestion tae yerself next time eh?

Agree0 Disagree0

Would much rather spendd the money on shane long but only in playera(possibly o dea and rasmuseen) plus cash deal. we need sell n assets like mcgeady.

Agree0 Disagree0

Weave alridy goat wan big sammy ( the baby jesus lokalike)

Agree0 Disagree0

Sutton only scored 1 goal for chelsea when we signed him. i know heskeys 32 but its the spl we're talking here

Agree0 Disagree0

Why do we need a new striker? hooper and stokes have an amazing partnership and will score loads against everyone. and sammy can play against the creamiest of bhuns and cause havoc

Agree0 Disagree0

Heskey ? he's garbage. i'm 6 ft 4, NL would be better off with me, at least i could hit a coo's erse wi a banjo

Agree0 Disagree0

The Paraguay goalie has a better scoring record than husky. He is with out doubt the worst striker in the whole world.........bar none.

Agree0 Disagree0

Heskey cant kick his own arse, and carew is as lazy f**k, wouldn't allow either of them to wear the hoops

Can i ask a genuine view from fellow tims?

who would you rather have- bellamy or keane?

personally id rather see keane back.

Believable20 Unbelievable4

Keano for me also, great goalscorer and great player to have in the dressing room.

Agree0 Disagree0

Neither in all honesty. Both looked poor last year. And paying 50k a wk, that's 2.6m per year & a transfer fee.

I'd sooner see that spent on a decent Mid 20's target man type to complement the strikers we've already got. Hooper, Stokesy and a new option will do us fine.

Shaunybhoy {Ed007's Note - Shauny, well said mate.}

Agree0 Disagree0

I would prefer keane....but i agree i would prefer if we had brought in mackail-smith or someone like that

but its still keane or bellamy both would improve our team so much

Agree0 Disagree0

I want to see an experienced forward but not a one season wonder We MUST win the league this season & back in Champions League.

Agree0 Disagree0

Both great players but with wages and transfer fees i think the money would be better spend elsewhere on a gk, central defender and another younger striker with a good sell on price as with keane and bellamy we would not recoup the cash

Agree0 Disagree0

Would rather sign another hooper but out of the two keane by a mile

Agree0 Disagree0

Maybe Stokesy will come good this season & we won't need a 'loan' of anyone {Ed007's Note - NL was singing Stokes praises today, so maybe the penny has dropped with him now.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Neither, we need to look forward, invest their wages money on a good young striker, no room for sentiment

Agree0 Disagree0

Bellamy by a mile . Keane is over the hill , although Craig is not far behind .

Agree0 Disagree0

None of them , both journey men , thers better young talent out ther for a fraction of the price..derbycelt

Agree0 Disagree0

Why dont wee try and get the 2 off them hooper and kean up front and bellamy free roll behind them bec i think wee have the money to give them good deals not the same ass epl but decent enough

Agree0 Disagree0

I personally woudn't welcome either of them, but if i had to choose......it'd be Keane were his boyhood heros

Any more talk of Shane Long Ed? Lenny mentioned him yesterday. You think we've got a chance? West Ham want him and have 7m to spend.

DazzaBhoy {Ed007's Note - It is the amount of the fee being paid up front that is the problem, WBA are also preparing a bid for him.}

Agree0 Disagree0

29 Jul 2011 21:26:43
ed this bellamy rubbish is getten silly noo we aint getten the man simple , we will maybe make a move for a player goalkeeper would be a good signing as they boy from moscow is rubbish, i for 1 didnt understand why we didnt do buisness on gary teale as hes a player who can do good work in the spl a true game changer i have watched his career grow from ayr to derby, a better player to have on the bench than darly murphy

Believable3 Unbelievable9

Mate i know these rumours are frustrating, but at the end of the day u have to remember the situation with robbie keane(who not is only a cheaper option, but a player i would rather have) Desmond stepped in to cover cover wages.

Agree0 Disagree0

Plestikosa isent rubbish and how do you know we wont get bellamy desmond might pay his wages if we get him on loan and he done it for keane why not do it for bellamy aswell

Agree0 Disagree0

Gary Teale - do you know anything about football mate.

Agree0 Disagree0

Gary Teale, that made me smile. Why would we want a poor right winger to replace Murphy?

Wee Jimmy Forrest is the future.

Shaunybhoy

Agree0 Disagree0

If you look at this thing logically the bellamy thing is only on if:
man city ( obviously want 80k a week off their wage bill ) so what do they do ? they want a transfer fee for a guy that they paid ?10_13 mil for ( off the top of my head for ) so now they have a guy whos over 30, & they want a transfer fee for but wee craigs got them by the bell-end- amy-s in that hes on 80 k a week .still under contract, & unless he agree's to drop his wages ( which he has no intention of ) he has them by the curlies,
so do they ,
1 release him from his contract ( with no fee ) dont think so .
2 let him go on loan. ( but must subsidise his wages ( while he enters the last year of his contract, & can pottentially go for nothing at the end?)
3. or sell him right now but nobody wants hiom with 80 k a week to take on. so think about it guys the wee bellamy has the baw at his feet ,
what a great position to be in ,
I personally think this thing will go right to last day of bussiness of transfer window to see who has the "poker face"
what say you ed ?
marth bhoy {Ed007's Note - I think he will end up at another EPL club Marty, his wages are the main stumbling block for any deal. I am not 100% sure but would he be able to buy out the remaining year of his contract like Webster? (I actually don't have time to look into it just now, lol)

Agree0 Disagree0

He cannot buy out the last year of his contract like Webster - you have to be under a certain age. {Ed007's Note - Thanks for that, I thought under Article 17 of the ruling any player could, I had read players like Stevie G and Lampard could use it to leave their clubs, but I'm not disagreeing with you.}

Agree0 Disagree0

29 Jul 2011 21:00:54
think celtic will wait till last day and put in offer for shane long.he will only have one year left on contract in jan {Ed007's Note - No he won't, in January he will have 6 months left on his contract and CFC could offer him a pre-contract.}

Believable1 Unbelievable4

Ed, after ur last statement its kinda getting me thinking that something might of been agreed already with long. u know how football is, nothing is by the book these days {Ed007's Note - NL spoke about Shane Long a few times during the press conference today, saying he was a "great admirer" of him etc.}

Agree0 Disagree0

I understand samaras , murphy and 2-5m offer for long , problem is will the players want to go?

Agree0 Disagree0

Should have brought him in in January before his valuation rocketed. Could probably have got him at a quarter of the price Reading are talking for him. Only saw youtube footage of him but the boy Musona looks a class act. Got any new info on the situation ed? {Ed007's Note - Musona signed for Hoffenheim.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Unfortunately so will other clubs have the opportunaty of pre contract and if he's banging in goals expect one of the big boys to be watching him {Ed007's Note - Players can only sign a 6 month pre contract with a team from another FA. If EPL clubs want to sign Shane Long as a Bosman they can only offer a pre contract 1 month before his deal expires as both clubs are member of the same FA.}

Agree0 Disagree0

29 Jul 2011 20:53:15
celtic looking at southampton young striker adam lallana valued at around 2m could do swap plus cash with murphy going the other way {Ed007's Note - He is an attacking midfielder and Chelsea had an £8 million bid rejected last year. Stoke, Newcastle and Bolton have all shown an interest as well.}

Believable2 Unbelievable8

29 Jul 2011 20:45:12
Sorry Ed for posting a cliche, but I didn't believe these craig bellamy rumours either until i got home 2day at about 7:30pm and turned on ssn and on the spl section near the bottom of the screen it mentioned that lenny had said celtic are planning on holding talks with man city over a possible loan move for bellamy.

Turn on your tv if u don't believe me. Can u confirm this, Ed? {Ed007's Note - NL and Peter Lawwell have both said they would be interested, but money/his wages could be a problem. Man City are supposedly looking for £4 million for Bellamy. NL never mentioned Bellamy in his press conference today, so where Radio Clyde got this from I have no idea. The only striker that he spoke about was Shane Long whom he mentioned a few times saying he "was a great admirer" of him.}

Believable3 Unbelievable1

I just read it on ssn earlier and they tend to be quite reliable but i must admit i haven't seen the press conference, Ed. {Ed007's Note - As I said earlier, someone I am friendly with was at the press conference. As for SSN, I look at that as a constantly updated newspaper, they need to have their headlines to keep peoples attention, they are far from infallible.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Go get bellamy with what weve no money hes past it anyway was average in championship last season

Agree0 Disagree0

I agree with last post. why pay 90k a week when we could bring back keane 65k, who is just as good, maybe better. Yes we dont have any money, but Dermott Desmond might give lenny the same boost he gave mowbary

Agree0 Disagree0

I think Celtic should go for Shane Long, much better option in the long-term.

Agree0 Disagree0

29 Jul 2011 20:30:12
Craig Gordon poised for a return north of the border...us or Rangers?

Believable9 Unbelievable5

Won't be rankers they've just put mcgregor on 5 year contract, so your talkin rubbish {Ed007's Note - It was a 6 year contract he signed.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Look at the state of rangers, defence- s**t- midfield- poor- strikers- mmm, goalkeeper is only position they're sorted in, why would rangers feel the need for a keeper when EVERY other position needs attention first?

Agree0 Disagree0

Honestly mate every year i hear the same old crap, the shame are s**t but who ends up with the title. truth is Mcgreggor, Boughera, Davis, Naismith, and Jelavic are all decent quality players, there only a couple of players away from having a decent team. We need a quality central defender a keeper, and a quality front man with a physical presence. or its going to be close again

Agree0 Disagree0

RANGERS FAN COME IN PEACE, I AGREE WITH THE GUYS COMMENT ABOVE WE ARE A COUPLE PLAYERS SHORT OF A GOOD TEAM. ENJOY THE SEASON .

Celtic will sign Bellers on a 1yr deal with an option. Wages will be subsideised and a payment going to a nominated Bellamy Charity. To be announced on Sunday after the Tournament. Wages for two rejected will contribute towards Bellers salary. {Ed007's Note - I am only posting this to show how much people can make stuff up, a nominated Bellamy charity? Why not have the money given to his own charity The Craig Bellamy Foundation?}

Believable2 Unbelievable13

Yeah the charity bit is made up Ed why add the bull and just go with the real story as told to the nation by Lenny at the press conference in Dublin. {Ed007's Note - I know, I am friendly with one of the reporters that was at the press conference, why do people feel the need to make things up? It's as bad as pretending to support another team.}

Agree0 Disagree0

I think most of us know about the craig bellamy foundation for disadvataged children in sierra leone and this is why he is unwilling to take a pay cut.

Agree0 Disagree0

BBC & STV both reporting another bid for Goodwillie which the club is considering.

Believable4 Unbelievable6

29 Jul 2011 19:17:27
Rangers will sign Goodwillie for the asking price of 2m. Celtic only got interested to up the price Rangers were willing to pay, just like they did with Wallace. McCoist and Whyte are amateurs at this game and every chairman knows this. They are being dragged into bidding wars and will blow all their budget on just a few players

Believable11 Unbelievable15

Rangers won the league with just a few plyers ya dobber so whats new

Agree0 Disagree0

What's your point caller? I didn't say they were going to lose the league as a result of blowing their budget. The point i am making is that McCoist and Whyte are being played as they have no clue at this level.

Agree0 Disagree0

Blown our transfer money on Goodwillie and you guys are thinking of taking Bellamy on loan.

at half his wages 1 year loan + approx 2.5 mil then he walks all the way back to cardiff and signs for nowt dont talk to me about wasting cash

Agree0 Disagree0

Goodwillie is not going to dig for Rangers. They have not had a bid accepted. He will go to England. Blackburn had a bid of 1.8 million refused and have just made a fresh bid (SSN). They will offer the 2 million and loan United Grant Haney for a year.

Agree0 Disagree0

What happened to the "war chest" for sally ? he's spent tuppence and can't afford 2m for the tayside ned, what is going on, over to you mr whyte

Agree0 Disagree0

Up what price its been 2m all along ally has only bid once ur reading 2 many papers

Agree0 Disagree0

29 Jul 2011 18:53:34

Believable5 Unbelievable3

You must be joking, youd rather have a ned than a class player like bellamy, if thats true go over to greyskull to watch the s**t on offer over there

Stv news reported that Celtic are interested in signing Craig Bellamy.... so perhaps these sightings are true

We need experience to win back the title... I agree Murphy has great potential - but its only potential

Agree0 Disagree0

He'd only be fit for half the season , overrated , over paid and unfit . Not what we need considering we have hardly any money , hence the free agents .

Believable4 Unbelievable5

Just to let you know ....in the cartoon he-man ....castle greyskull was actually the place where the good guys stayed ....you plumb {Ed007's Note - Are you actually trying to be serious? The good guys from a cartoon? Do you even know what banter is? Oh and plum doesn't end in a B unless you are experiencing problems with your waterworks.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Goodwillie will go to whoever offers him the most money , even if its a fiver, us, them, the epl, he will not care the only thing most players care about is money , example-mr c bellamy.fab1

Plum...... nice 1 ed. As for soccer..... Soccer? it's fitbaw

Agree0 Disagree0

Who the f**k mentioned soccer?you tryin ta hide your riddy, away back to the ibronx page, fab1

Agree0 Disagree0

That is nonsense. I am from Dundee although admit that there is not talk of him coming to us, all the talk is of him going to England. He wants to go to England, they will pay the money and Dundee United will be reasonable with him after what he has been through. He will listen to Peter Houston and Stephen Thomson re Glasgow and will not end up in Glasgow.

Agree0 Disagree0

All these sites must be afraid?, after all the work that goes in by journos, agents, chairmen etc - why bother , when according to the retarded few the truth of EVERYTHING is spoken by a random fat man driving people from a to b , nobody questions WHY any1 privvy to the TRUE story would tell a bloody taxi driver - GROW UP YOU FOOL, i can't believe you even wasted the 4 hours it (obviously) took you to write this pi5h

celtic have dropped interest in mphela and lacny.

Believable6 Unbelievable3

I actually thought Mphela looked half decent in the wolves games. Was unlucky not to score with his head. He'd do a job I reckon. Lacny, I wouldn't touch. On paper he looks average and I think it showed. Good pace but thats about it.

Saw the best/funniest rumour earlier on another site. It said, "Bellamy definately joining Celtic this weekend. My mate saw him checking in at the airport to go to Dublin. He asked him what he was going for and he replied to play in the Dublin super cup".
I guess his mate didn't spot his City team mates checking in aswell.

just heard a rumour that big grant holt of norwich is seeking a move away from norwich due to lambert no promisin startin place we should def get in for him what a fantastic signin he would be massive target man would score a sh1t load of goals in spl would dominate defenses seen a lot of him last season was well impressed even on loan we should get in there coz think lambert would rather send him up here rather than another epl team or championship team u heard anythin about him leavin ed ?


gunniebhoy {Ed007's Note - He is the Norwich captain and only signed a new 3 year contract in April. He was their player of the year and top goal scorer last season. I saw this on the main site earlier but I doubt there is any truth in the rumour.}

Believable1 Unbelievable7

29 Jul 2011 16:17:04
ed please stop posting the bellamy ( escept this lol ) stuff id rather he went elsewhere he is clearly only in it for the money , he is a 30 something player who has won nothing his whole career while making a fortune , u would think that he would like to come up here earn a few bob n possibly win trophys but clearly he is just money orientated , therefor i wouldnt want him back up here .
daviebhoy08 {Ed007's Note - I don't post all the BS rumours about him having medicals etc Davie (and I get loads of them), if it is a genuine rumour I will post a few and let people discuss it but the pages won't be getting bogged down with all the made up nonsense, we all agreed that Bellamy, Keane and Given could be spoke about but there would be no list of posts just making stuff up. I hope everyone is still in agreement over that?}

Sky Sport news- Celtic want Bellamy, and will hold talks with Man.City in next few days

Believable10 Unbelievable8

Where did u hear it or see it exactly?

I knw SSN but online, tv or a guy from the Marriott lol

Cumby Bhoy

Agree0 Disagree0

Was on the TV Cumby, heard it the now there.

DazzaBhoy

Agree0 Disagree0

Fair enough, was just having a laugh as someone mentioned a few times about his pal in the Marriott, dazza do u think it's just media stir up or could come off?

What about u ed where do u stand on the matter u think something will happen?

Cumby Bhoy {Ed007's Note - As usual with Bellamy, it will come down to money. Man City want rid of him altogether and Bellamy was looking into City releasing him so that he would become a free agent. I seriously doubt City would entertain another loan and there are a few EPL and Championship teams watching the situation. TBH I am not overly excited with the chance of him signing.}

Agree0 Disagree0

It is true but Celtic want him on loan talks r planned bout dealing with the wages

Agree0 Disagree0

Aye saw it too on SSN but his wages will be a big issue.

Agree0 Disagree0

Id rather have goodwillie, 1 he would score more goals 2 hes just a pacey 3 he will play more games and is fitter, bellamy is on the way out 2 more seasons tops he'll retire

Agree0 Disagree0

Cant city cancel the contract if bellamy agrees. he wants away city want rid and hes made plenty of money? {Ed007's Note - Yes they can, but Bellamy has said he will not take any great drop in wages because it would affect his charity.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Lenny would like to bring him back, just purely down to wages.

I personally don't think we need him, i think we need a bigger target man.

DazzaBhoy

Agree0 Disagree0

Bellamy is a ride. Never really done a great deal last time he was here, at least Keane scored plenty while he was here. Only good thing he does is wind 'them' up but for the wages he demands I'd rather have a couple of better players. Not for me thanks.

Agree0 Disagree0

Yep heard it too. Also got a phone call from my mate in Glasgow. They've finally got permission to talk to that hungarian guy

Agree0 Disagree0

Not for me to say whether they have got their facts right or not, but it WAS on radio tay sports, that I can confirm

Agree0 Disagree0

"Also said vorheuk and juhasz were coming in on a weeks trial did you miss that bit ?"

This is a Celtic Rumours page so who's give a sh*t about what they're saying about these 2...

Agree0 Disagree0

On the orc's site, there Ed019 says Lawell is in talks with Goodwillie

Like him or loathe him, the boy can score goals. And 2mill is cheap, we could sell him on in 2/3years and make a decent profit

Good to see celtics transfer policy hasnt changed.....buy who rangers are in for {Ed007's Note - Buying and "in for" are very different things, you need money to buy something, anyone can be in "in for" anything but if you don't pay the price you don't buy it, Rangers scouting system is that good that even Cardiff are buying players you were "in for". How very dare they! Oh that's right, they met Bursaspors valuation and Rangers didn't, not to worry though, I see a lot of Rangers fans saying Miller wasn't good enough anyway.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Thats right, gers do the donkey work, celtic step in. glad to see you know your place in life

Agree0 Disagree0

Nothing on Tay FM about Goodwillie. I just checked it

Agree0 Disagree0

The Manks over at Ipox have not increased there initial offer..So says " Fat Sally Moist"..seems Rankers have lost out Again no money..no chanceso why bother with all theirs crap bids in the first place..embarrassing for the Manks and a joy to watch ...Hail hail king Lenny

Agree0 Disagree0

Gotta agree with tony here, i work (work being a very loose term lol) in dundee. ed can prob confirm via my IP, I havnt had the radio on and agree with tony there is bugger all on the radio tay (fm or am) websites, also if it were on the radio, it would be all over the office just now, could be wrong though

Evinguu

Agree0 Disagree0

Hope this ISN'T true... please rangers hurry up and spend 2m on goodwillie. soooo overrated.

Agree0 Disagree0

Miller was a judas that left you's midway through a season you's could have lost, to get a payrise.

He obviously doesn't give a t*ss bout r******s yet you lot adore him.....fail fail.

DazzaBhoy

Are the Celtic fans optimistic about a decent European campaign this season. Scotland needs it for the co-efficient. Although you might need to win a game away from so I'm no optimistic.

Believable13 Unbelievable4

Dont worry about celtic, we'll be fine this season.
its your lot that need to learn to win a home game. does malmo ring any bells?

Agree0 Disagree0

What is the rangers european home record? 22 games and one win? And thats at home. People in glass houses.........

Agree0 Disagree0

I am optimistic about the chances of a Celtic european run. The squad is probably good enough to do reasonably well in the Europa league. Lennon's tactical knowledge will be the deciding factor in my opinion. He got it wrong at Braga and Utrecht but I think he will have learned from those experiences. He is talking about trying a different formation against Inter so this may be him trying to prepare a plan for away games in Europe.

When is the draw made for the Europa league qualifiers?

IslandBhoy {Ed007's Note - August the 5th. With the games being played on the 18th and 25th.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Im quietly optimistic myself, was last year too but look how far that got me lol. So im not gonna make any guarantees that we will. We have the nucleus of a good squad a few tweaks here or there required still tho. Would accept us playing a wee bitty more reserved away from home to get a result, but not park the bus style like rangers god no like i said on a diff comment yesterday teams only fight above their weight and win against better teams when they have a go at them , very seldom do you win when you park the bus and hope for a result eh rangers ?

Evinguu

Agree0 Disagree0

We'v parked the bus for several years now and have done much better the the smellies fae parkheid

c-bear85

Agree0 Disagree0

Rangers have done better? did yous get into the last 16 of the champions league ? i think not

Agree0 Disagree0

What have celtic done in the last 3 years??

c-bear85

Agree0 Disagree0

Personally i think rangers are out unless they can attack and key players actually perform ie $hittaker and naismith well pretty much everyone and if celtic can stay concentrated they should win but often they have a lapse and lose games

wellboy

Agree0 Disagree0

C-bear85 - yes you have us on that we havnt done very well the last few years excellent observation skills, you guys keep saying, oh weve carried celtic in terms of coefficient the last few years, what about from 2001 - 2007 ? was the opposite not true? i would say so, much better record than rangers in europe. But that is all history. Its all swings and roundabouts. Can only look to the future and gotta say with or without green tinted specs celtic look in a better position to do more in europe than rangers ( as it stands) . And i dont think parking the bus is the reason yous have done better than us in the last few years, our own incompetance has prevented us from matching if not bettering your record. I would hardly call bareley winning a game, hardly scoring goals and generally making fools of yourselves across europe as a success just the fact that yous were in the competition is by definition better than us, but you need to look at your acheivements. ok ok uefa cup final aside, but come on hardly set the heather alight getting there and deserved losers in the finals, was a sad day in football when a team playing such a poor poor brand of football got to the final ( good for scottish football to have a team there i must add) but hardly anything to really shout about, basically bored the opposition into submission and took em on penalties or jammy 1-1 draws away from home to get through. Right gonna stop gonna set myself up for some astonished remarks back at me for that one

Evinguu

Agree0 Disagree0

Am Sure That It Was Barcelona That Slated Them From Ibronkz Sayin All They Do Is Deffend ... Yet Barcelona Chairman And Players Rave Bout Celtic The Way We Play Our Fanbase And We Are More Like Them the mankies tactics In Europe stinks :) hail hail boys

fs wish every 1 would stop with the bellamy crap now. He done a great job for us 5/6 years ago hes not the same player anymore his knees are dodgy he would never play more than 2/3 games in a row his wages are scandalous he wont take a drop in wages

gunniebhoy

Believable21 Unbelievable1

No forget about bellamy and goodwillie celtic have to spend serious cash to bring in a striker and a decent centre half no ifs or buts , to many dodgy and made up rumours on here, please no more hersays

Anyone heard the rumour about West Brom's 17-year-old defender Donervon Daniels coming to the hoops?

Man U and City also interested apparently

DazzaBhoy

Believable17 Unbelievable3

We have offered him a contract mate

hail hail

Marco1888

Is this the start of the "blue-chip" signings?

Agree0 Disagree0

Is he not under contact to West Brom?

You heard anything bout City/United in for him?

DazzaBhoy {Ed007's Note - A few EPL teams have had him watched Dazza.}

Lawwell preparing a £1.2m + a player for Goodwillie.

Believable6 Unbelievable26

Mr lawell has stated that we are not interested in goodwillie

hail hail

Marco1888

Agree0 Disagree0

No he didn't. He said Celtic had made no formal contact with DUFC regarding Goodwillie.

Agree0 Disagree0

Not really marco. He said we have not shown any formal interest but if lenny wished to make a bid then the board would try to arrange a financial package.
Kevbhoy

Agree0 Disagree0

He said no formal interest but it had been stated (not by him I may add) that the club had asked to be kept informed. I wonder if there have been developments?

Agree0 Disagree0

Saying CFC have shown no formal interest means simply that the club have not made an official approach. Therefore no club has a formal interest in ANY player....until they make an official approach to the player's club. At that point it becomes a formal interest.

Agree0 Disagree0

Lets get this strate........ goodwillie will not repeat not end up at the piggery hes a rangers man it wil b ibrox or england defo personally as a cov fan id say go 2 gers cuz theres no bigger club in my opinion ta {Ed007's Note - A Coventry (cov?????) fan that refers to Parkhead as "the piggery"? Are you really that pathetic? The 32,000 capacity Ricoh Arena must surely be the pinnacle of football stadia I am sure. Especially with that massive average attendance of 16,000. That is only half filling your stadium in case you are having difficulty working that out.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Coventry an england yh so the piggery it most certainly is ed. thats nt my point anyway im sayin hw can it b possible 2 play 4 the rivals of ur supported club? especially 2 as big an fierce as the old firm goodwillie is silly surely nt that silliy an btw i am nt comparin my club 2 any of the old firm nt a chance im jus sayin rangers r the bigger more succesful club thanx. 4 what its worth i rekon use wil gt bellamy bk on loan {Ed007's Note - It is possible because money is a very powerful motivator. Ever heard of Mo Johnston? Jamie Carragher was an Everton fan in his youth, Luis Figo left Barca for Madrid. Leeds die hard Alan Smith signed for Man Utd the list goes on, the team you support does not have any bearing on the team you play for, money does.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Mo jonstone aye hw many times since? rangers n celtic is different ive bin 2 ibrox a few times an ive neva seen passion like it. luis figo woz portuguese ed different ball game his club is neitha barca nor madrid. if ur staunch british or irish u cannot cross the divide i for 1 cud neva turn out 4 the celtic even tho they a big club {Ed007's Note - Are you stuck in th edark ages? There is a young player at Rangers called Alan Smith, look him up and see where he comes from. Kenny Dalglish went to practically every Rangers home game when he was younger. Coming from Coventry I can see where your ignorance of the situation comes from, but can I ask why a Coventry fan has been to Ibrox and why a Coventry fan couldn't play for CFC? Why not just say you are a Rangers fan living in Coventry? If you have came on here to try to spark a sectarian debate you have failed miserably, if you read other Rangers fans views on here, you are very much part of the minority with your out dated and basically bigoted views and opinions.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Or the possiblity that im loyal 2 my belisfs that is nt sectarianism ed and thats nt wot im tryin 2 do. not all footballers r mercenaries if ur dyed in the wool y on earth wud they play 4 there rivals... me at th cheerse villa? nt a f***in chance fella nt 4 any money an bein english y wud i want 2 turn out 4 a team wiv irish heritage? i woz only giving an exampl ed. and if its so common y doesnt it happen more often? we both knw the ansa {Ed007's Note - We are going round in circles, I think by stating you wouldn't play for a club with Irish heritage proves that you are a racist and a bigot. I take it you wouldn't play for Rangers because, as an Englishman why would you want to play for a Scottish team? I suggest you have a long hard think about this and realise that your team (Rangers) and its decent fans have moved on and are trying to eradicate bile filled ignoramuses like yourself from their midst. I can only be thankful that you are in England and not up here spewing your distorted views.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Er no because scotland is british an thats my heritage and its called OPINION ed i think ur views are narrow minded hw u gt this job i will neva know ur knowledge is shallow. it does nt make u a bigot racist 2 have a passion about bein BRITISH its bt a crime u need 2 wise up {Ed007's Note - You are pathetic and starting to bore me. Your small mindedness comes only second to your ignorance. You are supposedly a Coventry fan so I would suggest you stick to their site and prepare for another season of mediocrity.}

Will Pletikosa be given more game time in Dublin or is his trial period over?

I see 2 strikers we were linked with earlier in the summer Jerry Bengston and Omar Damari are still scoring for fun. Both scored for their teams in their continental comps.

Anyone else think Reading are being a bit stupid about the Shane Long asking price seeing how he's about to enter the final 12 months of his contract and will be able to sign a pre-contract in January meaning they'll get nothing? Seems a bit weird.

Believable14 Unbelievable3

Agree with this but clubs in England would probably see 7-8m as a drop in the ocean. Some would pay that money for an untried youngster who had 'potential'

Agree0 Disagree0

Reading are holding out for a big price in my opinion as we would do in the case of Izzy or Kayal.I know the differennce with Shane Long is that he is in the final year of his contract, but there is a good bit of time left before the transfer window closes, thus plenty of time before they have to look at cashing in on their prize asset.HH.

Ed wot u think about a move for nicola zigic. I know he's not the best technically but with his physical presence i think he would score a few goals up here. Good foil for hooper aswell.

Drew {Ed007's Note - I don't rate him Drew and he is on 50k a week. Spurs and believe it or not Man City (according to his agent) are interested in him. Samaras is bad enough without Zigic.}

Believable4 Unbelievable6

Got to be one of the most overraterd players i've ever seen.. even more overrated david goodwillie. and thats going some.

Agree0 Disagree0

Did nothing at Birmingham. Brum fans would be delighted to see the back of him

Call me sentimental but I'd love to see Bellamy back. We may not be his number one choice but seeing him On YouTube last year refusing to sign a rangers top
Let's get him back.

Believable14 Unbelievable5

You want to sign a player on the grounds he never signed a Rangers Top just shows you how small minded you really are M8 Bellamy would sign for Rangers tomorrow if he was offered 100k per week. the only thing Craig Bellamy loves is himself and his bank account and before you go on about his charity football academy that's all tax deductible so it actually costs Bellamy nothing easy to be chartable when it dont cost you

Tony

Agree0 Disagree0

Have you not got enough worries with your mob than to bite to that mate? exactly why id like bellamy back. idiots like you biting

Agree0 Disagree0

Sentimental?? He done nothing for us. Debut. 1 v 1 with watteraus and hit his body instead of rounding him. THAT DAY at fir park. 1-0 up. 1 v1 against 40 year old gordon Marshall. Instead of rounding him, he hit it off his fat belly. We know what happened next. If thats sentiment, you can keep it

Agree0 Disagree0

So you wanna see him back at huge expense......just because he refused to sign a Rangers shirt? Great idea....why don't you pay for him out of your own pocket

Agree0 Disagree0
