Heard a rumour this afternoon - Van Bronckhorst and Larsson. Next week it will be Lambert and Butler 😂.

Could you repeat that as I couldn't read for a lot of damn smoke in my eyes.
2.) 14 May 2019 14:28:14
Benson and Hedges are in pole position I heard.

Jokes aside i don't have a clue about most of the so called targets on this leaked document. I'm more concerned that it says likely to be interest in Edouard recruitment to work on options for #9. If genuine we are going to sell already for frogs sake.
1.) 04 Jun 2019 15:18:01
I'm concerned that Shved has had his work permit denied and we are having to appeal the decision.
2.) 04 Jun 2019 15:31:59
Hopefully it can get sorted GH, this lad looks a star in the making.
3.) 04 Jun 2019 15:55:01
Was always going to happen as he doesn't meet the criteria but he will get on no bother on appeal. Happens all the time.
4.) 04 Jun 2019 16:39:20
Was there more than the two pages shown here? I was wondering where the attackers were. Who else is on it?
5.) 04 Jun 2019 17:11:49
Yes there is 3 pages JT you'll find it on yesterdays Newsnow Celtic page under the heading - Leaked Parkhead Transfer Documents appear online but something doesn't add up. Or directly to the Martin Rae @ Troublesome1986 twitter has them.
6.) 04 Jun 2019 17:16:37
Think we had same work permit problem with wanyama.
7.) 04 Jun 2019 18:42:45
He’s on the verge of a Cap for Ukraine also so there won’t be any issues. He’s improving the Scottish game so we will get it over the line no bother.
8.) 04 Jun 2019 19:33:43
Just seen it there Stan cheers. Can't say I'm bothered or surprised if people are looking at Edouard. It can only be good. The issue would be reinvesting the money for him. I'm not sure Maupay could kick on to be a great forward in Europe for us but he'd do the business domestically.
9.) 06 Jun 2019 21:57:26
Cheers for clarifying Bhoys.

Surely in this day and age the current batch of players we have at the club know how to look after themselves. I can't think of a player at this level of football who would think its acceptable to eat junk food. Anyway would it not be up to the club to ensure this type of food and drinks are not served at lennoxtown. Seems like the most logical way to do things. If players need a manager to tell them how to eat then god help us we really are in for a rough time of it if that is their childish mentality.
1.) 26 May 2019 12:53:16
Plenty did before Ronny arrived Stan.
2.) 26 May 2019 12:57:11
This is all Ronnie propaganda, put about by the worshippers, this is 2019,not the sixties and seventies, all the nutrionist stuff was used as a smokescreen to cover some pretty dire performances under Ronnie, these are highly paid professionals, they know if they don't look after their bodies, they won't be highly paid professionals for very long.
3.) 26 May 2019 13:07:00
Surely the sports scientists still have to do there job and monitor the players that shouldn't change and I would think Peter and Dermot would het to hear about it is standards were slipping.
4.) 26 May 2019 13:07:47
Well i'd say it's the club at fault for that Kev. We can't control what they eat outwith the club but we can certainly do it at Lennoxtown. Only a Mickey Mouse outfit would serve junk food to professional athletes. I hope that days are long gone.
5.) 26 May 2019 13:21:44
Aindoh. Guys like commons and mulgrew went mental when the rules were brought in and cause bother. Everyone knows that.
Even Rodgers commented how professional it was when he arrived.
You only had to look at the difference in Griffiths under Ronny to see it was working.
6.) 26 May 2019 13:46:03
Stan the sports science guys can tell if your not following what your told to do away from the team. They are constantly checked for weight and all that carry on. It's real precision stuff we are talking hear.
7.) 26 May 2019 13:48:35
Griffith's had been banging in goals for Hibs, he wasn't given a proper chance, by Ronnie, untill he got a good run in the team because of injuries, Rodgers wasn't going to bad mouth the previous manager, was he.
8.) 26 May 2019 14:16:58
Aindoh even guys like van djyk credit Ronny with making them fitter.
Jesus Collins was fitter than some of our players when they went in there.
9.) 26 May 2019 14:45:45
I cannot believe the nonsense been spouted on here about the players diets.
Unless you are seriously into sports, you really won't have a clue about sports nutrition.
These guys have a punishing amount of games in a season, trust me, their bodies wouldn't keep up or recover if their bodies were been deprivied of the proper nutrition.
Full fat coke and crisps, get a grip!
10.) 26 May 2019 15:09:27
Ronny must have been talking nonsense when he said this then eh downunderbhoy
Quite frankly, it was shocking, but it had a lot to do with the wider society in Britain and the diet norms. It’s fried food, there is sugar in everything, alcohol, basically all the things that are the worst imaginable nutrition wise.
"We had to change everything about it at the club. I said to the nutrition expert at the club at the time that players can’t eat cornflakes for breakfast, and the answer I got was that they don’t like anything else! For me it would be better not to eat breakfast than having cornflakes, which they didn’t agree with’
"The player’s fat percentage was being measured at Celtic but I didn’t trust the readings; on some of the players I couldn’t even see their abdominal muscles. I brought in the nutrition expert I had worked with at Strømsgodset and it turned out that I was right; the measurements were wrong and too lenient, the fat percentage was actually higher.
"In my first six months at Celtic the squad lost a combined weight of 60 kilos (9 ½ stones) . John Collins had a very European mind-set when it came to fitness, having played at Monaco. He was fitter – at almost 50 – then some of the players in the squad when I arrived.
"It was difficult at the start but we achieved some good results and got the players on board. After all, everybody wants to have a better beach body! Virgil van Dijk weighed 104kg (16st 4lb) when I arrived and when he left for Southampton he was 95kg (15st) and looked like a proper athlete.
11.) 26 May 2019 15:23:11
I think the fitness side of it wins us most games. We always seem to find a late goal to win games, usually because opposition tires and we still have plenty in the tank to push on.
12.) 26 May 2019 16:17:34
Aindoh, you're right of course that we were a poor outfit under Deila, but it's true that the guy changed everything regards diet and expectations on fitness. His biggest problem was that he didn't enforce it; he created the conditions and HOPED that the players would buy into it. Rodgers ENFORCED high fitness and nutritional standards. It's one of the reasons we did so well; hardly any domestic team could touch us fitness wise.
13.) 26 May 2019 16:19:19
Exactly bravetart. After the break we won something like 7 points with goals scored in the last 10 minutes of the game.
There is a league table floating around that shows if games were played to 80 minutes rather than 90 then we'd have lost the league.
Our professional set up when it comes to fitness means they can keep going right to last seconds.
14.) 26 May 2019 16:33:43
Ronny Deila's problem was he knew plenty about players diets but knew very little about tactics and improving players techniques. In Brendan Rodgers we seemed to have somebody who was good in all these areas.
I still can't work out why Dermot Desmond thought in 2016 that our standards were slipping and spent money on a proven manager, now thinks it's okay to go back to those pre 2016 days. Under Brendan Rodgers the club were very successful on the park and made a lot of money off it, so even if Brendan Rodgers had taken us as far as he could surely they would have been better off trying to get a similar guy in who could maintain if not improve our playing style.
I really hope Lennon works out but From the football I've watched since he took over I'm not that confident. Teams are finding it very easy to hustle us out of our stride and we are struggling against it so much that we aren't even creating chances now in games.
I hope our board know what they're doing.
15.) 26 May 2019 19:02:23
Delia say squad lost 60 kilo when he took over, however it’s not that unusual for players to report back for preseason 2 or 3 lbs over so in real terms nothing massively unusual there.
On recent performances, certainly no worse than under Rodgers last 18 months.
The pressure on the players and manager after Rodgers walked out was the most any will have had in their life’s and the only thing that mattered was the next game.
One by one they got through them and made world history.
Now time for clearing loans and some deadwood, even brining I’m 4/ 5 players we will be stronger next season.
16.) 26 May 2019 19:40:04
Here we are the day after an unprecedented treble treble and all fans are posting about are diets, levels of fitness, having a go at Della, Lennon, and the board. I can’t begin to think what it would be like if we weren’t winning anything. Enjoy what’s just been achieved, then if things are going wrong next season have a moan. oldkilly.
17.) 26 May 2019 20:14:53
Oldkilly geez peace people can post what they want.
18.) 26 May 2019 21:30:21
Aye whatever you say Kev. oldkilly.
19.) 26 May 2019 21:39:27
Hi there first thing congratulations to the bhoys for rebel treble. Now why all the doom and gloom we've won the treble playing rubbish at times, Lennon did all right last time against a better rangers team, if he gets backing from board for 4 quality players rb, ch, no10 and forward we'll do fine. We we're never going to get big name manager after board wouldn't give Rodgers more money. Hail hail.
{Ed007's Note - "Lennon did all right last time against a better rangers team"
26 May 2019 09:29:39
Outstanding by the players on the bus, as it makes it's way into the City a zombie at the traffic lights shouts "We are the people" to which the players respond with a rendition of Zombie Nation 😂.
1.) 26 May 2019 09:52:27
You got link to that vid Stan as I cannot find it?
2.) 26 May 2019 10:36:09
Pod1 i watched it on the Celtic Instagram page via their live post video which means it will disappear at some point today as they only stay on for 24 hours.
26 May 2019 09:10:43
I made it quite clear Lenny was not my choice. As i said last night i ain't going to waste my energy moaning or having ago at the Board what is done is done and i hope he proves me wrong. The positives that i will take from it is Lenny saying himself last night he needs reassurances and that the squad needs investement as this squad is now at the end of it's cycle, he will thankfully now be able to change formation/ tactics etc, Broony saying all the players in dressing room love him. I can reel of some negatives but as i said it is a waste of energy. We have a major rebuilding job on our hands and with the Boards support and the fans backing i remain convinced come July we will be stronger.
1.) 26 May 2019 10:22:18
As I said in a previous post my big worry is will the board revert to type and go the cheap route.
Hail Hail.
2.) 26 May 2019 10:31:29
Good post Stan, I hope all the fans get behind him now.
It's not what most fans wanted but I believe he will deliver 10 in a row.
We should enjoy the treble treble because Lennon will play a weakened team in the league cup, which I am fine with, as he will keep his strongest teams for Europe and the league. As long as we win the league, any cups in the next 2 years will be a bonus.
3.) 26 May 2019 10:38:14
PL has already said there will be a big rebuilding job to do this summer and has also said Lenny is good at identifying players so let's see what happens. All ifs and buts at the moment the time to judge the Board will be mid July and Lenny this time next season.
25 May 2019 19:11:46
Oh well atleast we can give Lenny £7m from the Leicester cash to spend, and some.
Not even going to waste my energy being disappointed, congrats all involved for another magnificent achievement.
Let's celebrate, rest, punt a few, buy a few and go seal 9.
25 May 2019 12:22:52
Pedro is hoping Shved is as good as people are saying he is 😂 did he sign him based on that. Think your pal works for the Daily Record aswel mate.
19 May 2019 14:22:34
Still can't believe we turned down £9m. Should have accepted that even if he was under contract for another 18 months. Ridiculous decision.
19 May 2019 14:21:08
Highly recommend the Celtic TV Youtube channel gents, posts highlights of the youth games. Loads of vids to scrawl through if you want to check out any of the players. I've been mostly impressed by Oko-Flex.
13 May 2019 18:01:14
More chance of Brendan getting a filling.
12 May 2019 13:37:45
Empty shirts once again at Ibrox. Without Tierneys drive and crosses and Christies creativity we offer nothing in the last 3rd. Big changes needed in the summer, but we all know that already.
05 Jun 2019 20:02:56
This is great investment for the future, we probably won't see it's benefits for a few seasons but it will give us a better chance of bringing through our own. Great if they build a stand and we can get to watch the youths and woman regularly in comfort. Funnily enough i heard a while back something along these lines and that Scotland were looking to take up Lennoxtown and ourselves looking to be more 'CP' orientated. Could well be utter garbage and it ain't exactly a rumour but that's what was said. If true though and we have this latest development done, add to it 'another Lennoxtown' plus the Hotel, Museum and Superstore it really would be quite something. A new South stand would be the icing on the cake and although some will moan this will all ensure we stay ahead of the rest. It will bear fruits a plenty and add some much needed extra revenue each season.
04 Jun 2019 18:41:46
As frustrating as it is Mally there's still plenty gems out there. I've had a laugh about the leak today but for all i know they might be decent enough players. Hopefully guys like Shved will come in a take the place by storm. I have no issue with so called 'projects' as long as we have seasoned pros alongside them to guide them. There needs to be a balance. All this leak has done if it is genuine is brought embarrassment to the club as it looks like something a child would write.
04 Jun 2019 18:14:32
Transfer Window 95.
04 Jun 2019 18:12:54
Look at the players we managed to get for £0 over the years one of our best was Ledley. Was gutted when he left.
04 Jun 2019 17:18:42
We started the negotiations when Deila was Manager 😂.
