ave heard a rumour celtic kept a loan signing quiet and personal terms and paperwork in final stages atm all i know is the player is from EPL, also the Europa League decision friday at 4pm so james mc fadden is staying in scotland to find out whats happening and if celtic get re-instated mc fadden will have had medical done early on friday and if celtic get in Europa he will sign the paperwork before 5pm deadline. what do people think?

Believable8 Unbelievable26

Mate we got 2 players in, there wasn't a 3rd. Let it go and get on with it.

Agree0 Disagree0

Let me think......Hmmmmm.......I'm almost there.........OK, here's what I think about your story..........TOTAL PISH!

Agree0 Disagree0

Fact or theory ?

sounds like the latter to be honest

Agree0 Disagree0

He cant play for celtic in europe this year? so why would he wait to see what the sion result is?enjoy your buckie, keir

Agree0 Disagree0

The james mcfadden from a good source (cant be named) and the loan was a rumour i heard about 5or6 times since 11pm.

Agree0 Disagree0

Pure crap . window is shut and keeping quiet paper work . ffs keep taking yer medicine

Agree0 Disagree0

I'd check my sources if I were you mate.
McFadden was freed at the end of June so can be signed today, tomorrow or whenever.
Howeva there is a reason why no-one has picked him up for nowt.... he more injury prone than Molly ever was!
Eejitt!

Agree0 Disagree0

Why cant McFadden not play in the Europa League?MACCA

Agree0 Disagree0

So what your saying is mcfadden will only join celtic if they get back into europe get a grip . celtic are a big enough attraction for a player like that doughnut without europe......bigt rangers fan

Agree0 Disagree0

Mcfadden is desperate to join Celtic his whole family is Celtic daft,maybe if he can prove his fitness and accept a pay as u play deal at 1st it would suit both him and the player. I think he would do a job if fully fit. {Ed007's Note - If there were not serious concerns over his fitness, surely someone would have signed him by now?}

Agree0 Disagree0

If it was a pay as you play deal I would have no problem with it at all, as I'm pretty positive most of us would. As Ed is right he is injury prone, so lets just wait and see. He did knock back a last min deal too join Aberdeen so he must have something planned. cheers CB67

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Aug 2011 23:32:40
By 4pm Friday we will know whether we are back in EL. So
if we are and Lenny fells we need more cover we can take pick of any free players. Simples!
Good night hoopland.

Evening ed, could you tell me what teams were in for Sammy? if there were teams in for him? cheers mate johnny {Ed007's Note - Sunderland, St Etienne, Rennes, supposedly Blackburn(??) and a Greek team.}

Believable3 Unbelievable2

Thanks ed, just wish we could have found someone dumb enough to buy him, johnny

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Aug 2011 23:07:24
Ed do you think it's likely Celtic will go back in for Baba Diawara in January! They were obviously very interested with Lennon going to Portugal himself and Celtic agreeing a price for him! What do you think ed?

peter lawell has confirmed no more signings tonight to STV.

@STVSport
STV Sport
Peter Lawwell tells STV's @ChristopherHarv no more business tonight for #Celtic Just Badr El Kaddouri from Kiev and Jos away to Southampton.

Believable5 Unbelievable0

I think it's ridiculous we never signed a centre half. Its clear to see Dan and Loovens are liabilities. While i recognise Charlie is decent at centre half, what if we get injuries to Charlie or Kelvin.
Supporters shafted again by Lawwell

Agree0 Disagree0

What are you wanting, gold plates on everything.

Agree0 Disagree0

There is still hope that a couple of players could be signed. The deadline only applies to players with clubs. There are a lot of good players with no contracts out there. Let's hope we find a few

Agree0 Disagree0

Ffs how are supporters getting shafted we have signed seven players this window how many more do you want

Agree0 Disagree0

Mathews,Wilson,Foster,Wanyama,Bangura,El Kaddouri,who is the other one?MACCA

big jos away to southampton must see a defender coming in now

Believable6 Unbelievable1

Why? We've got 5 not including hooiveld! Ok there not all the best but good enough for spl!

Agree0 Disagree0

Don't need to be at the ground to sign someone
Craigybhoy

Agree0 Disagree0

Because dan is murder loovens cant stay fit either can ronge. So it leaves Wilson who I have heard can be injury prone also. Wanayama and Mulgrew will not be the answer.

Agree0 Disagree0

It is the answer when u realise that is all u need and all the board is willing to do to try and win the league! Yeah they aren't great but "they will do"!

Agree0 Disagree0

St johnstone, st mirren they wont do this will cost us the league. We have spent no money again. We are pinning our hopes on the striker from sweeden not convinced.

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Aug 2011 22:37:40
Bellamy signs 2yr deal at Liverpool! Thank god, Thot we would mibe land him, could have been bad news! :) {Ed007's Note - We had a slim chance but he always wanted the move to LFC, it started last week behind the scenes.}

Castle grey skull reject £9mill bid for jellyfish from un-named club!!!! Not big Sven tho! They should have cashed in, because heard also no direct place for champs league nxt season!

Believable2 Unbelievable5

I hear it was Everton mate, after they sold Arteta to Arsenal(subject to medical)

Who cares what they do, we signed backup to the squad we now have two players for every position. Now need Lenny to play the right ones IMO

Agree0 Disagree0

Next seasons champions league group stage place is guaranteed for the league winners.

Agree0 Disagree0

Well you heard wrong spl winners go straight in and by god i hope it the tims

Agree0 Disagree0

Bulls**t.

I am 100% convinced this is a Tighty Whytey smokescreen to appease the Rangers fans and cover up the fact Rangers have signed no-one.

If a team had actually bid 9million for Jelavic Whyte would have snatched their hand off.

IslandBhoy {Ed007's Note - Why is it an unnamed team yet they splash Leicesters offer all over their official site?}

Agree0 Disagree0

Sky sports broke the story

"an un-named agent said that rangers knocked back an offer of £9million, rangers put up the QPR offer so why no news if someone offered £9m? Cause it was BS!

Pretty sad over at mordor when the only transfer is "Little going south", very appropriate!

DazzaBhoy

Agree0 Disagree0

Ed you kinda pissed on my bonfire mate!

DazzaBhoy {Ed007's Note - Sorry Dazza buddy.}

Agree0 Disagree0

We don't need anyone else! Did the last three (yes 3) skint, number 4 will be just the same,and you know it. Sweet dreams... Haaaaaaaaaaaa {Ed007's Note - Haaaaaaa?? How old are you? Isn't this a school night?}

Agree0 Disagree0

It's a pr stunt to fool the gullible fans and deflect from no signings. an agent phoned up representing an unnamed club ? it's like something from candid camera, no doubt all the diddies will lap it all up, fools {Ed007's Note - It's funnier than Candid Camera ever was, be fair.}

Agree0 Disagree0

What amuses me is that your discussing rangers instead of celtic.....says it all really! how sad....p.s. that includes you ed! {Ed007's Note - Well it's better than any comedy currently on TV since Gary Tank Commander finished and Lee Nelson isn't on tonight, what else do you suggest we get a giggle at when we have a tragic comedy evolving before our eyes?}

Agree0 Disagree0

Whats tragic is how many trophys you lot have won in the last 3 years?? perhaps you should all learn to sing when your winning. you will never learn!

Agree0 Disagree0

The winners of the spl this year don't go straight in the champions league next year, they have 1 qualifier to play........

Agree0 Disagree0

Cheers mate will do,final note,would have like to have seen a cb what about yourself,hopefully we will get a half decent free agent anything is better than big dan,but tbh still happier than the rotten mob lol. {Ed007's Note - I never thought we needed a CB.}

Rumours of Valencia defender signing. Hedwiges Maduro. Dont know if any truth in the rumour but supposedly been holding talks with Lenny.

Cant we worse than majstorivic.

RM

Believable4 Unbelievable3

Hedwiges Maduro is more of a defensive midfielder if we sign him I would expect bad news on Ki/Kayal front.

Lenny needs to give Wanyama a chance at Cb he was only good player against St J

Lets put Mcfadden rumour to bed for tonight. Even if we would want Mcfadden we wouldnt need to sign him by the deadline as he is a free agent and can sign outside of the transfer window. Ed correct me if I am wrong

CeltStu {Ed007's Note - You're right Stu, he is a free agent and can sign for anyone at anytime.}

There were 3 deals offered to big sammy. Late one from Blackburn. He turned down all 3. He is prepared to sit the contract out and collect the money.

Believable5 Unbelievable6

Think theres more to it than that. He would earn more at the 3 other teams, especially blackburn. This confirms to me that the boy is deranged and geniunely believes he can win place back. Rasmussen is far better

Agree0 Disagree0

I think he said he wanted to be at a club challenging for silverware not mid table or lower, explains the EPL knockbacks...tho i heard rennes are french champs? so who knows...it seems he is a strange lad

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Aug 2011 21:49:12
The best piece of buisseness that Celtic can achieve this transfer window would be getting shot of that Greek fairy samaras!

Believable9 Unbelievable3

No it wouldn't be. We simply don't have to play him. Another striker or CB would be the best piece of additional business we could do.

Agree0 Disagree0

Ive got a full tank of petrol in ma austin montego ready to escort him away. he should of been allowed a free transer

Agree0 Disagree0

what has happened to james mcfadden is he a free agent and do u and my fellow bhoys think he is worth a punt a would take a chance no probs. jamesy bhoy {Ed007's Note - Please no Jamesy, we just got wee Shaun off the treatment table.}

Believable3 Unbelievable3

I think if wee got him fit he would be great signing in place of maloney

Agree0 Disagree0

A fit mcfadden would be a good player for celtic, free agent, 28 years old , i wanted O`neil to buy him from motherwell for 400,000, and hes celtic daft, could do a lot worse eg. sammy, keir

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Aug 2011 21:43:41
Hearing a lot of talk about the possibility of a swap deal involving samaras for carlton cole. do it!! do it now!!

Believable3 Unbelievable7

Won't happen. He refused a £6million move to Stoke & is reluctant to move away from London for family reasons. Pity we can't just put Samaras in a black bin bag & leave him outside a charity shop when it's dark.

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Aug 2011 21:41:55
Your taken stick from someone on stv site over closure of Scottish transfer window, you would think people would get it by now as it has happened for years.

Transfer windows close at 11pm, Scottish window is 12pm for paperwork to hampden but as Celtic are a Plc company signing need to be announced to them by 11pm meaning no transfers after 11 but announcement are always made after 11 as big money English announcements are done and can't steal the thunder.

1 more in a suspect.

celtic have signed el kadourri,30 year old moroccan international left back on six month loan with option to buy from dynamo moscow.so much for ssn saying no more ins at parkhead.

Believable3 Unbelievable2

This el kaddouri guy has only played 142 games in ten years I hope that doesn't speak for it's self and say he's brutal.it's like he's went missing for 7 years all together lol

Agree0 Disagree0

It's Dynamo Kiev and SSN said no more ins after el Kadourri was confirmed... however there are a few still not convinced that all movements in & out are finished at Celtic Park

JD

Agree0 Disagree0

Dynamo Kiev bro supposed to be quite consistent just some cover I take it he wasn't lennons first choice

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Aug 2011 21:32:59
This one's getting later than expected but as I promised to keep calm we'd get a guy or two in and we got our LB. At the moment we have someone taking a medical. Hope it goes thro in time.

Note to ed ... You are wrong we can sign anyone up until midnight its eleven in england

Skinnybhoy {Ed007's Note - Look at the official SPL site, I think they should know:

www.scotprem.com/content/

Believable1 Unbelievable1

Its usually 12 but they changed it this year to coincide with everyone else.

Agree0 Disagree0

You are both wrong transfer window has been extended by 24hrs because SFA were all on Jury Duty today in Edinburgh

Agree0 Disagree0

It used to be midnight but the sfa had it changed to 11pm like in England so the last hour can be used for paperwork.

Agree0 Disagree0

Its midnight the scottish window shuts! 1 million per cent!

Agree0 Disagree0

Just got off the phone to my friend who works in the office at Scotsman newspaper and has links in the sfa and agents said it shuts at midnight only scottish window !! I had to clear that up although it was supPosed to change to same as English it was refused at a hearing amost sfa in April 60/40 voted in favour of keeping it midnight !! {Ed007's Note - Phone him back and tell him to check the SPLs own website and alert them to their mistake.}

Agree0 Disagree0

"Look at the official SPL site, I think they should know" Ed you're right, they should know... but since when has that been the case? Haha

JD

Agree0 Disagree0

Go to STV Sport Football and click on 'Transfer deadline day live: all the news as it happens'. It says Scottish transfer window closes at midnight.

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Aug 2011 21:16:35
I think we're stuck with Samaras if Sunderland is the only option. Just seen on ssn that they're closing in on Bendtner.

Drew

Believable5 Unbelievable0

There was a few options for samaras,, he just didn't take any of them and he's quite right after signing a new 3rd deal.. Celtics fault again!!! Surely he must not play again and Rasmussen given a chance even tho not very mobile but can score goals!?

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Aug 2011 21:02:45
Ed007, has Hooviveld signed for Southampton? What about Rasmussen is he going anywhere? Thanks Timalloy {Ed007's Note - There is nothing official about Hooiveld yet Tim. I am not aware of any concrete offers for Ramussen but there was some interest.}

Believable2 Unbelievable0

31 Aug 2011 20:54:28

www.scotprem.com/content/

Agree0 Disagree0

Thought our window didnt close till midnight?

Agree0 Disagree0

I thought the Scottish window was opened til midnight Ed? {Ed007's Note - No.}

Agree0 Disagree0

We have an extra hour allowed for completing registrations, whereas down south all business has to be completed by 11pm

Agree0 Disagree0

Ed why are stv, sky sports and bbc al saying deals can be done until midnight in scotland then? Annoni7 {Ed007's Note - Maybe they never checked?}

Agree0 Disagree0

Chick Young said on Radio Scotland earlier that the window doesn't close til 12 up here.

JD

Agree0 Disagree0

Well hope that no one signs during the hour before the tranfer deadline of midnight then!!

Agree0 Disagree0

Ed, you heard anymore on Samaras going or has that Greek yougurt gone aff?
HH
/BB {Ed007's Note - He is still there but there is still time.}

Believable3 Unbelievable1

I dont think hes the full shilling, he is now 4th choice striker at the best. It best for him and club if he moves on. For me there is no way back for him now. Cant believe Man City paid £6m a few years back.

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Aug 2011 20:44:16
Bassong move to qpr hits the skids, source spn possible move from us ? {Ed007's Note - I still think it will go through, the Anton Ferdinand deal to QPR has collapsed after Sunderland asked for more money.}

Believable0 Unbelievable1

Bassong is stayin at spurs coz the Cahill deal is dead. Rednapp just said it on ssn.

Drew

Agree0 Disagree0

He's back at spurs cos spurs bid for Gary Cahill failed

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Aug 2011 20:34:09
no more signings at celtic, source ssn

Ed any news on any cb signing tonight? Not heard anything but we could do with 1 {Ed007's Note - I don't think we need a CB.}

Believable3 Unbelievable3

Not now we have a LB, Mulgrew and Wilson need to get a run together at CB and Big Dan needs dropped.

Agree0 Disagree0

I want Rogne alongside Kelvin. Only reason Mulgrew won't play alongside Kelvin is because Kelvin can't play on right handside and neither can Mulgrew...hope Rogne gets a chance!

Agree0 Disagree0

True, hopefully this LB we got on loan is decent. Fairly solid defence now dan is out

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Aug 2011 20:23:57
Great stuff bhoys, move mulgrew in CB with Kelvin, new firepower up front with bang bang its looking a lot better now eh? I'm informed we've still one to go too.
Plus Sunderland just had another knock back on a forward leaving only.....you guessed it diddy boy Sammy!! That to me would be the icing on the cake guys. Hail Hail

Chrisbhoy67

Believable7 Unbelievable2

If sammy goes and one more comes in I'd be a happy bhoy tonight

Agree0 Disagree0

Mulgrew won't play beside Kelvin as neither can play on right hand side of defence...I hope Thomas Rogne plays beside Kelvin because he is a talent and I highly rate him, too many think he is poor because of ONE poor game! Hail Hail

Agree0 Disagree0

Celtic have secured the loan signing of Moroccan left-back Badr El Khaddouri from Dinamo Kiev.

The 30-year old defender has agreed a short-term move until January, providing cover for the injured Emilio Izaguirre. Celtic have an option to sign the player permanently at the end of the loan period.

El Kaddouri is a 30-year-old Morrocan international, who has 40 caps for his country and represented them during the 2004 Olympics.

After starting his career in his homeland with Wydad Casablanca, El Kaddouri moved to Dynamo Kiev in 2002. He has since played almost 150 games for the Ukrainian side, scoring three goals and providing 11 assists.

Great short term move, he has great pedigree and will do well for us in Europa League, if we get there :-)

Believable10 Unbelievable5

31 Aug 2011 20:11:13
Good, hopefully we can get another player in before midnight, whats the news on samaras, has he gone yet, fingers crossed. {Ed007's Note - The window still shuts at eleven o'clock, the midnight deadline is for paperwork/registrations, allowing for delays etc. The deal needs to be finalised before eleven.}

On ssn that lenny has just arrived at Celtic park. Lawwell already there. I know the u19s are playing but lenny normally has someone else watching them so hopefully a bit of business is getting done tonight. I posted earlier about illunga who lenny really likes. Wee whisper he is pushing for another forward. Hail hail kt67.

Believable5 Unbelievable2

Not sure if this is a good sign or not?
I'd imagine with a match being played at CP then we would be conducting any transfer business at Lennoxtown.

The press there will be a nightmare even for an U19's game. Would have thought we'd have done business at Lennoxtown and then taking the signing/s to CP for fans and photocall.
Hope I'm wrong!

The Scottish transfer window closes at midnight. One hour after the English window closes so don't be too surprised if some of our business if any is done after 11. More than likely it will be loan deals. wouldn't be too surprised if we go back in for left back from west ham illunga.

Hi Ed, Just seen Gary Hooper and someone who looks like an agent or an advisor board a flight to London. QPR for £6m?

Also strong rumour that Samaras is off to Blackburn for £1.5m and Hooiveld to Palace! {Ed007's Note - How can someone look like an agent?? Did he have a black suit and shades on? A sandwich board saying 'I look like an agent but I'm really not'?? How do you know what flight they boarded and why are you hanging about airports? If you got a pic post it in. The flight was actually going to Marbella, and for the last time, Neil Warnock stated yesterday he had no interest in Hooper, his agent has had no contact with anyone regarding the player.}

Believable2 Unbelievable5

The flight he was on was to gatwick and i was waiting at the gate for a flight to southampton, i am a celtic fan and there was no mistaking who it was. And yes Gary Hooper was dressed casually but was with an older well dressed man, either hes gay or hes taking his old man to London for the weekend...Come on Ed! You have no idea whats going on unless you are the player, Lennon or Warnock! {Ed007's Note - You don't even know who I am. Must have been a very quick flight to Southampton to get all the back to where your IP address is showing you actually are. If you are making slanderous accusations about a players sexuality, I will be more than happy to pass on your details to the authorities to let them deal with the matter. Now run along and grow up child.}

From the BBC website:

1515: Blackburn and Sunderland have 'tabled offers' for Georgios Samaras, according to his agent and are offering him more cash than the Greek striker is on at Celtic, too, reports BBC Sport's Matt Slater. However, the agent thinks a deal is less than 50/50 likely to happen, as Celtic want more money.

Surely not, Celtic would take almost any offer?? Cetainly the majority of fans would

Agree0 Disagree0

Lennon gave him a new contract with a view to selling him and cashing in, but if we mess about it could end up costing money that could have been used to bring in a better option

Loyalty bonus ! take him court and sue him for the 10.mil champs money he cost us for the penalty miss at ibrox {Ed007's Note - All players have it written into their contract regarding a pay off if they are transferred without requesting it.}

Don't see a striker coming into the youths as we are already overstocked in that department at that level, somebody yesterday mentioned Lawson D'Ath of Reading who is an attacking midfielder and scored about 15-20 goals for their reserves last season but I can't see this as he is too highly rated for them to let him go.

Celtic have made an offer to take Herita Ilunga on loan from West Ham United but the player is only interested in moving to the club on a longer-term deal.

STV has learned the Parkhead club made an offer to take Ilunga on loan for six months on Monday night. But the Congo DR international would prefer to move to Celtic on a permanent deal or at least a loan until the end of the 2011/12 campaign.

It looks like the bangura signing and Shaun's departure will be the only bit of business comlpeted today. Maybe left back from west ham. I'm a bit disappointed as I sort of expect Celtic to sign more players and watch SSN hoping for new signings. Celtic should just come out and tell the fans
they won't sign anybody if that is the case.
Insted of having the fans build up their hopes.

Believable4 Unbelievable5

But you don't know that's the case, and if it's not, then why would Celtic come out and say this.

Seems strange that when Sky contacted his agent to ask about Wolves £7 million bid his agent said he had no contact from any club regarding Hopper.}

Some folk need to find a job. How can you afford broadband on your giro anyway? get back to your Rankers page and stop contaminating our page with your vile unwashed bulls&it. Grow up and remember this, Jelavic will go where the money is, that was proven when you lot signed him. He went on strike like a big baby. LOL.

Agree0 Disagree0

That's because it was Hooper and not Hopper. You think they could find an Ed that could at least spell. Epic fail. {Ed007's Note - Very adult, over a typo? Do you realise how busy we all are today ya nugget?? Away and grow up you pathetic child.}

Take a hint Sammy, you're not wanted! He'd struggle to get in our sunday pub side so if we can get 2.2m for the c*** then i'd carry him there!

Agree0 Disagree0

According to SSN its Rennes and good on him shows character wanting to prove yourself no matter what abuse he gets from people who think they know all about football Im actually ashamed of the attitude of some Celtic supporters. I would expect Rangers fans to act like this and not Celtic fans. Some moronic fans even complaining about Samaras when we didnt score against St Johnstone he didnt even play in the match, he has only played 2 games this season Sion at home where the whole team played poor and Sion away in which we were down to 10 men and goal down after 2 mins. Sammy actually had a decent game and most of the early attacks were through him and he was on the left wing since we were down to ten men.

Hi, when we going to learn not to take everythin SSN says as fact? Plus, an enquiry is simply checking if a player is available, and what the valuation is, doesn't mean any offers are made. Hooper won't go anywhere. Can see Dixon coming in, doubt Shorey or Ridgewell are coming, both could get into some premiership sides. Big name signing WON'T happen, been a hoop long enough not to fall for that one. (ED - do you think Ridgewell/Shorey would be good signings? And what do you make of Dixon?) {Ed007's Note - The thing with SSN is if you watch it, why are a news channel giving you their company's betting division odds on transfers, could they be trying to maximise their gambling income? Ridgewell and Shorey would be good signings but can't see them happening. Dixon would be good as as stop-gap until Izaguirre is fit, letting Mulgrew move into the centre with Wilson.}

Lawell has confirmed this morning that no interest in Ridgewell or Shorey. When asked directly by a reporter stated "there is nothing in those"

Why do people make things up. go back to your own board and explain to your people why you are selling your top scorer.....

nothing about hooper leaving on any tv or website,

I think you'll find it's on the BBC website and the SSN website. Why do people who hear something they don't like insist that the poster must be a Rangers fan? Grow up and wise up, we have players that English teams are interested in, the trick is ensuring we don't let them go on the cheap (if at all).
