With regard to potential summer signings - Jordan Rhodes should still be our number 1 signing target IMO.
If Blackburn continue to implode they will get relegated. They are in a financial mess. As transfer fees are paid in installments, we could get lucky and pick up Rhodes for the original fee Blackburn paid. The full amount was based on appearances, goals and PROMOTION.
He has not really set the heather on fire there - although the team is sh1tÂ£ to be fair. There might not be the scramble for his signature this time round (if there even was one last time).
Still a lot of money but he is THE outstanding candidate to replace Hooper PLUS ticks all the boxes for the guys on the board who sign the cheques (mainly his age). He is also a big enough 'name' to satisfy the section of the support who will no doubt be demanding Lawell spends the millions we have made (plus any fees for Hooper and Wanyama).
I won't hold my breath as we all know how we conduct our business these days - and I am confident John Park will have cracking prospects lined up already. BUT if the deal could be right for Blackburn, and right for Celtic - Jordan Rhodes would be a great present for the fans. Goals equals bums on seats after all. kbt1978

Not set the heather on fire? he's scored 20 goals in 32 games for a messed up side. Some record if that's him off form. he would scored 30+ in SPL no bother

Rhodes has scored 20 goals in 32 games mate he's on 2. 184 Million a year tae, 20 goals in the Championship is like 30 in the SPL lol It's sad but true (Then again they do play like 8 extra league games than SPL and EPL) there's a guy at Birmingham who's on 65k a week and they were in Administration a while ago I think lol, It's crazy the wages down there. I am sure a Premier League club would get him as they would offer more cash Celtic would probably offer less, which is sad mate I'd love to see him in the hoops. Hail Hail GhreenBhoy1888

21 goals and counting I would say is a good return. would like to see him wearing the hoops. Austin is another one I like to see at park head. Mackay Stevens would be a great addition! I'm sure we will fill hoopers boots with quality.

He will be on a huge salary - not to mention his last fee of Â£8M may have sell-on's?
I would say although the supporters would love to see him in the Hoops, he will not be on NL's wish list. To make it worse Kevin Doyle IS! More's the pity.
