if Palace come in at the last minute and offer howe more money he will not come. he didn't last at Burnley and if his family ain't coming to Glasgow, no matter how much he fancies the gig he doesn't seem to be the type of person who would risk his family life for personal job satisfaction. if he does come to us then he won't be here long as the pressure of flying back and forth to Bournemouth during a C.V. will take its toll and he will be away within a year. that's just my take on it.

But if reports of Howe accepting in principle are right i hope he's a man of his word then.

Wee Strachan saying the Howe deal could fall through and we shouldn't put all our eggs. he knows something. I wouldn't be surprised if Lawell asked him. to put that out there and soften the blow. Although it wouldn't. I got a Mo Johnstone vibe about this. Let's hope it's nothing, but I find it too much if a coincidence thst we hear Palace are in and he comes out with that today? Definitely didn't want to hear that.

Ive got a bad feeling about this Howe deal u would think if the deal you would think that if it was good and all happy it would be announced will need to wait and see would not surprise me if there is something in news over next couple of days to put a dampener on this deal.

If it's true Howe's family aren't coming to live up here. I wouldn't offer him job.

If there is an announcement it can’t happen till Tuesday at the earliest as we need announce it to stock exchange first.

{Ed007's Note - So how did Neil Lennon get the job on a Saturday evening in the Hampden showers?}

There's something not right about the situation. I think we are about to have the rug pulled. Strachan knows something.

Howe 1/ 3 with Skybet to become manager I would have expected much shorter odds if it was a done deal. There’s no doubt he’s a highly rated coach but his transfer record is very poor with only 2 players he purchased in 5 seasons at Bournemouth leaving at a profit.
I expect us to sell Edouard and Ajer at least and that bringing in £30m approx with Christie or Mcgregor potentially leaving giving us another £10-20m we need to make sure we don’t squander the cash we bring in as we will need 2 CBS, GK, striker and CM for starters.

That's the spirit, garryowen. Love your enthusiasm!

Whoever told you that only two players have left for a profit is talking crap.

Eddie Howe, actually has a good track record of developing players and improving them.

Granted the transfers made at Bournemouth have been hit and miss but they have a system were they really study the lower leagues and look at all the player metrics to try and identify targets (Moneyball style) and have had decent success when they have followed that model.

I have some reservations about Howe but this is not one of them, plus it will be a DOF that will be overseeing that side of things.

Davie Proven hopes Keane can have a late run for the celtic job.

celtic and barkas have rejected a loan bid from Athens. seems like barkas is up for staying and proving a point i would keep him. would sell bain and loan hazard out with option to recall and sign the dundee utd keeper to fight it out with barkas. if were getting eddie howe i see begovic is on a free this summer he could be worth a punt to fight it out woth barkas always liked begovic.

WHY Would you keep him? This guy has shown NOTHING to suggest he is a £5m keeper. Just get rid!

Agree2 Disagree0

03 Apr 2021 13:14:06
I agree 👍 with us not loaning Barkas back to AEK, if they want him - buy him (cheeky basa's) .

I'd also sell Bain and bring in two quality keepers (one first team and a younger No.2) with the view that Barkas will likely go before the end of the Summer window.

Agree0 Disagree0

03 Apr 2021 13:25:53
I would keep Barkas and Bain and send Hazzard out on loan and buy another keeper that would challenge for no1 spot.

Begovic is a great shout.

The only downside is it may be expensive on the wage budget to have all 3.

It will be up to Barkas.

A read somewhere eddie howe tried to sign barkas before. Give him a better back 4 you might see a better goalie. I have my doubts tho.

Pedro I don't think we're in a position to call anybody cheeky with the amount of loans we get.

Agree1 Disagree0

04 Apr 2021 16:49:52
Get Barkas out he’s rotten, we can’t keep preserving and hoping that he eventually turns good as his position is far too important to risk keeping him in team.
If Athens or anyone else would pay his full wage and if we are lucky a loan fee then other than being able to sell him for £2m or whatever I would be happy for him to leave.
We should target 1 of the big clubs number 2’s who would be of a high calibre and swayed by 1st team football on a regular basis or a proven young keeper we can afford from Scandinavian or Dutch league.

Signing in principle sounds like he's still waiting for something else a couple of reports recon there could be a twist in the story to come.

I agree 100% Rich. I’d give him the Glasgow Kiss, Right Now.

Maybe Rafa Benitez has made a late bid?

Agree0 Disagree0

03 Apr 2021 09:50:30
Guys rumour is his family do not want to move to Glasgow, if he comes he will be on his own so maybe put a couple of quid on Roy Keane at 20/ 1 (only two interviewed)

Agree2 Disagree0

I am sure he would had spoke to his wife about moving before talking to Celtic, I have a feeling there will be a announcement b4 the game tonight and a interview b4 the game.

Agree2 Disagree0

03 Apr 2021 11:12:38
Happytim completely agree! You don't talk to a club in another country without having spoke to your wife and family first, some stories are just nonsense with no actual thought put into it. I too have a feeling we may see an announcement before the game tonight.
