Republic of Ireland striker Evan Ferguson, 20, wants to leave Brighton in January because of a lack of game time.
Interesting 'rumour' this morning. we could do worse than making a loan move? HH.
1.) 23 Nov 2024 10:52:10
Ferguson caught my eye when he scored a Premiership hat trick for Brighton.
He’s a big and powerful lad but I think he will be looking for more game time than Celtic could guarantee him.
2.) 23 Nov 2024 11:49:28
He's a celtic man and we could have signed him. but he's had injury issues but I like him and would definitely take a punt but maybe too rich unless he's nearing end of contract.

After the Euphoria of yesterday its now about the next game and a massive transfer window.
Given our performances of late that was a huge result for us all.
Anyone hear any genuine rumours yday?
Abada and Hetate are like 2 new players (albeit likely to lose Hetate to Asian cup) .
Losing Oh, Yang, Kyogo, Maeda and Hetate leaves some big gaps in our squad (which we should have been planning for) .
Does anyone think Palma might be worth a run as striker!?
Wishing you all a HHappy New Year!
1.) 31 Dec 2023 09:20:03
Hope yesterday doesn't disguise the fact we need quality signings. we are watching.
2.) 31 Dec 2023 10:42:29
I'd sign that big Arbroath ladin the traditional keeper/ striker dual role, good for the Scottish quota too.
3.) 31 Dec 2023 13:15:00

I think we have more than a genuine interest in signing Scott McKenna and Shankland.
?.
4.) 31 Dec 2023 18:00:06
I would not mind seeing Mckenna and Shankland brought in and perhaps the boy from Estoril.

Must be a Derby week and a final. Australian 'snout' says Ange gone in the Summer to the PL. Wish as a club we would put this to bed once and for all HH.
1.) 21 Feb 2023 10:03:56
Yes the fact no one has said he's not going anywhere makes you wonder ?.
2.) 21 Feb 2023 10:11:30
Would be a great week to come out and announce ange on a new contract, boost the whole club and shut these rotten rags up for a bit.
3.) 21 Feb 2023 10:27:11
Totally agree. Would he bring so many players over on 5 year deals. then leave? Seems strange.
{Ed007's Note - Ange will have very little, if any, input on contracts. That's up to Nicholson and Chief Financial Officer, Christopher McKay.}
4.) 21 Feb 2023 11:38:22
This Aussie 'snout' obviously not done his homework correctly when making up his story about Ange going to Leeds at end of season, using Harry Kewells link to Leeds as a former player to strengthen the case. Has nobody told him that there is a deep rooted hatred of Harry Kewell amongst Leeds fans after he signed for Galatasaray .
{Ed007's Note - And Leeds are due to announce Javi Gracia as manager.}
5.) 21 Feb 2023 13:03:57
You don’t respond to every Sevco planted bull or you would spend every day doing it. It makes me wonder why anybody thinks we should.
6.) 21 Feb 2023 16:00:18
Is there a Glasgow Derby game on this weekend or something. So many tributes to the tributes by former tributees. Im suprised they haven't said we are in crisis 9 points clear in first final of season, record amount of goals being scored. Yet Mealie Mouths record of 13 or whatever gets mentioned continually. I can't wait for us to truly put them into the ground at the weekend. Really really really want us to pump them again, but I mean 5 or 6 would be just perfect.
7.) 24 Feb 2023 13:51:38
All this media nonsense and the Mooch and former the Rangers players must be making him think what he’s in amongst but hopefully not affecting him enough for that, I think he likes working for Celtic ?.
8.) 25 Feb 2023 16:55:58
As an Aussie - (and I had to create a new account) . and one of the first to say Ange would be a success over here. Andy Maher is a very credible journalist over here. As much as I hate to admit it - no smoke without fire.
9.) 25 Feb 2023 18:50:40
I doubt he will go in the summer this year, he may do next year. Unless a big big club comes in for him. Think he would like another crack at the CL and try show some progression. He'll get better offers if we have a good Euro campaign.
10.) 26 Feb 2023 10:46:38
I'm not buying any of it, it has come from the mouths of people who really don't have the inside track, or connections, it's just clickbait and wishful thinking from those who support the dead, as they know mealie mouth is no match for Ange. Let's just concentrate and pumping the dead today, winning the treble and Ange leading us in CL.
23 Dec 2022 22:12:45
Makoto Mitsuta and Cho Gue Sung incoming? HH.
1.) 24 Dec 2022 17:54:11
Been reported its Tomoko Iwata and he also looks a player.
2.) 25 Dec 2022 13:14:31
That the boy av read about.
3.) 25 Dec 2022 13:16:23
Apparently he's versatile but his best position is cb.
4.) 26 Dec 2022 12:29:36
Yeah pretty much all media outlets in Japan have confirmed Iwata will join on loan in January then move permanently in the summer for just under 1m.
Best position is a defensive mid, that’s where he mostly plays according to that American journalist guy who’s based there, (Dan orlowitz I think) but Iwata can also play centre back and as a full back.
Could be another steal if I’m honest and a very shrewd buy by ange, he’s fine tuning the squad and loading it with quality over quantity, ideguchi will most likely leave in January and abildgaard hasn’t really kicked a ball yet so can’t see him signing permanently if ange isn’t that keen on him. McCarthy will also probably leave next month or in the summer so it’s extra cover for mcgregor and mooy in that anchor position going forward.

Did anyone pick up on any suggestion from BR yesterday that business is done? Did he go with same script yesterday? HH.
1.) 27 Jan 2019 13:46:40
No, thought he said that we are still trying to get business done.
2.) 27 Jan 2019 21:18:50
And if he had said, business is done, it might mean, that business is done but it is not in the public domain, so business might be done, but it might look like no business has been done.
3.) 28 Jan 2019 11:52:15
So is there any business to be done or has it all been done or has the done business not really been done and is waiting to be done? 😂😂. Only 3 days to go Ed 😂.

Have to say I was very impressed with Brugge tonight. Technically excellent, tactically well set up, kept kuhn largely quiet by keeping his back to their goal and overran us a lot in midfield by beating the press. 2nd half we pressed better and seemed to make more contact on them. Bernardo and Valle definitely gave us a spark at the right time and Maeda showed real quality for goal. We would have begged for a point like that last season so it's experience again for the squad in terms of being on it from the start in a top competition. 2 points somehow from the 3 games left would be huge for us. HH.
1.) 27 Nov 2024 23:33:33
Didn't catch the game, as I'm in Asia at the minute, but I wasn't devastated to learn about the draw.
Let's face it: Bruggs have been doing consistently what we aspire to do. This is the level we hope to be at (rather than the level we have demonstrated we are at) .
Fair play to the bhoys: more work, and re-enforcements, required to truly kick on.
2.) 28 Nov 2024 00:21:59
I was shouting if the Celtic player was blind for not passing to Maeda, who was initially in loads of space but then the next pass to Maeda created more Celtic History ??
My Son was howling laughing.
23 Oct 2024 20:10:25
What a massive result and a superb reaction to our last game in Europe. Tactics spot on and everyone in the squad showing their value by doing what's needed.
Do we know a target to get to playoffs is it likes of 10 points? HH.
{Ed007's Note - OPTA are predicting that it'll be 10 points}

Ed / Regular posters
How does Sevco not qualifying impact our revenue for the Champs league? HH.
1.) 13 Aug 2024 22:51:41
I’m sure Celtic get more TV revenue.
2.) 14 Aug 2024 14:27:08
Reports today say we get an extra £4m in tv revenue.
17 Feb 2024 20:20:44
I'm keen to hear what Ed and posters think. but my belief is we have chucked this league. There isn't the talent or heart in that dressing room to turn this round, nor has the manager got what it takes to give us a consistent run for what's left. Could be 8 point different by time we play them. Massive clear out across the board and team required.
{Ed007's Note - League's aren't won in mid-February and you don't get a "We've got another chance to go top of the league tomorrow" trophy.
I don't know what will happen tomorrow but what would you be saying if by some chance TRIFC drew or lost tomorrow, would you be on here saying we had the league in the bag?
TRIFC have won the league, even though we are still top at this moment in time and with 13 games to go including 2 derbies?
Do you even realise how mental that is??}
1.) 18 Feb 2024 05:28:48
Respect your opinion ed, few points to qualify.
Most leagues aren't won now i agree, Scotland however is a 2 horse race, one of which is winning consistently. We have more difficult games to come than a well organised Killie at home. If players are 'nervous ' as being quoted, how do we fare at a full Ibrox? Finally,13 games to go and we are still waiting on our World class manager to get a tune from us for a run of games, yes signings been poor, lawell out etc but the difference this season will be the 2 managers. One inherited a mess and has found a solution, the other hasn't (consistently) . I hope you're right Ed and will keep the faith. HH.
31 Jan 2024 20:27:29
Won't even begin to speculate about tomorrow but the committment I've always heard from the manager and the board are that we aim to emerge from each window stronger. time will tell.
Does anyone know the return date for Iwata. he was improving! HH.
1.) 31 Jan 2024 20:53:52
Celtic are in danger of coming out of the transfer window weaker, with the players we have available.
CCV might not be available,
Taylor
Hatate
Turnbull
I’m sure a left back will be signed and I’m optimistic about maybe another midfielder, due to Hatate being injury prone and also if Turnbull is sold.
I’ve not heard anything about Iwata since his injury in December.
Hopefully he will be back soon because Iwata still has a big part to play in this team.
2.) 31 Jan 2024 20:54:31
With the exception of Kyogo I think we should get rid of all the Asian guys as soon as possible.
They haven't produced the goods and they simply haven't settled in Scotland. HH.

Be happier to see them on Saturday mate HH.
12 Dec 2023 12:42:35
Abada?
09 Dec 2023 19:01:37
Both too hopeful?
Get them both.
The left back
Van der Beek
Hopeful I know!
Would keep me Happy until Summer. HH.
{Ed007's Note - Kvistgaarden is honking! He's scored 7 league goals in 46 appearances in the Danish league, we're talking another Rasmussen level type of signing here imo and if the reported fee of €6 - €8.5 million is correct Celtic should give this idea a serious wide berth. I'd take Shankland over him any day and every day.}

Going by who we are linked to and if any truth in the stories you'd think that the club is future planning for bids for; Jura, GG, O Reilly? With departures of Gucci and Mc Carthy looking certain too.

Going by those figures it looks like only 16million owed then? Pending court cases of course but that would be classified manageable debt I'd have thought? Let's see if they can cope with living within their means now UeFa tightening their grip.
30 Oct 2022 20:48:13
Interesting 1st rumour isn't it. would have thought CB well covered with CCV Starfelt Jenz (loan) and Welsh. But if he's got talent why not! We need a CM, Striker and someone who can take corners / hit free kicks! HH.
