Rodgers regarding transfer activity - ‘there’s loads of work going on behind the scenes’
Really? How many times did we hear that during the window. He must be raging. He mentioned in recent AGMs about learning lessons from past windows and being better prepared going forward.
Yet again it’s always the same, scraping the barrel in the final hours instead of doing our homework and being prepared.
We’re in a weaker position, albeit we should have enough to see the season out. But it’s a mess and we’re not going about things like a ‘big club’. Finger crossed we don’t hit a bad run of form or pick up injuries to key positions.

on course for a treble in the next round a champions league first time in 13 year . look across at the govan team now that's what you call a mess.

You’re UI, they are a mess, but I’m only interested in what we do. We sell our main striker without a replacement being lined up. The fact the manager and CEO etc flew to London on the final day mob handed for a 32 y/ o utility player proves we were not prepared.

Hi all, this is a long shot but any suggestions on how to get my hands on 2 tickets for Celtic v Aberdeen (19/ 10) ? I no longer have a season ticket and I've been waiting for the public release which was 10am this morning but already sold out.
Looking to take my son to his first game for his birthday, we're going the stadium tour/ dine next Saturday and would have loved to have taken him to his first home game the following week.

It's almost like our transfer activity incomings is waiting on O'Rielly being sold.
I honestly can't fathom our board and their snails pace approach. Amateurs.
1.) 05 Aug 2024 21:02:38
The Board are complacently content with us being the big fish in the very small pond and see profit, bonus, dividends and bank balance a much higher priority than quality recruitment and European progress. PL would rather make snide remarks about Sevco than focus on what the manager and supporters crave.
We all know Celtic cannot compete with the cream of the continent or the sugar-daddy league, but many of fondly remember ALWAYS punching above our weight in many CL matches and the Celtic Park atmosphere.
We have always been a selling club since The Lions dispersed but we have more recently replaced our top players with inferior models usually on the cheap and the deterioration in Europe is no coincidence. it's due to our Boards lack of ambition and duty to supporters as our club's 'custodians' to progress, not regress.
They seem intent on selling a player who seems very content at Celtic the sale could do much more harm than good on the pitch; but as long as they add to the £100m already collecting interest they will be chuckling all the way to the bank.

Spot on bhoy 4, the board always gague transfers on the nearest domestic rivals. Then throw a lucky dice in the CL ambitious and hope for the best!
3.) 06 Aug 2024 12:34:23
The step from been dominant in Scotland to making a real go of it in CL maybe bigger and maybe cost more than many think . I know that Manchester City have accepted bid of £81 m for their substitute striker Argentinan player.
Quite a bid for a back- up player.

Deary me let's get 2-3 new signings in this week. This is excruciating. Seen this movie too many times before.
Deadline day disappointment incoming .
1.) 28 Jul 2024 23:49:58
I think we will see some deals sped up now Steady. I can see Bernardo bwing announced when we get back and Idah coming in as well. A few will be moved on before we get a new CB and LB in though.
2.) 29 Jul 2024 01:10:43
Still around 5 weeks.
3.) 29 Jul 2024 08:14:58
I think we will see definitely more movement in both directions before the deadline.
4.) 29 Jul 2024 09:46:22
Will only worry if we only have a week or two but got plenty time, rather wait on the quality arriving rather than buy for the sake of buying.
5.) 29 Jul 2024 09:58:27
Question IF we only bring in Bernardo and Idah as the only 2 outfield players in this window would anyone think that's a success or decent? I would think it would be a disgrace personally and this board give me the fear that it car really pan out that way. With only one left back and have had PLENTY of time to bring in new players that we need in the positions that we need them for.
6.) 29 Jul 2024 10:44:18
With the GK position sorted and if Idah and Bernardo come in then I think the minimum requirement is another LB and a CB. That would be the bare minimum for me.
7.) 29 Jul 2024 11:01:04
There might still be 5 weeks left, but as it stands we’re starting the new season weaker than how we finished last season .
We might ge Bernardo this week but I can’t see Idah getting done.
8.) 29 Jul 2024 11:30:07
Yes I think if we bring in Bernardo and Idah, on top of the GKs, then it’s a decent window - if, and only if, we do not sell MOR or Hatate. In an ideal world we’d sing a LB but I like the look of the young lad, he might be ready to step up.
Personally I’d take that, but if either Hatate or MOR goes then it becomes a bad window.
9.) 29 Jul 2024 12:01:48
Sorry to be a wet blanket but while acknowledging and agreeing where you're coming from, we've a bloated squad already and we need to ship the u.
10.) 31 Jul 2024 00:20:39
We should remember there are three strands to a successful transfer window . Move preferably by selling players that have been around a couple of seasons or more and not contributing to our first team . Keep all our important first team players . Keep them happy and try to prevent them pushing for a move .
Buy players as quickly as possible that manager has requested . Don’t let the standards of wanted player drop, unless desperate at very end of window.

On a slightly different subject, bad enough having to put up with BFKB on the Sky coverage, but anyone else notice the blatant bias from Crocker on commentary?
He wets himself anytime they get anywhere near our box. He also had a few fly digs throughout the match. A comment at the start about being simply the best, then I recall a dig about AJ’s “handball” from the previous fixture.
My thoughts on the match, a sore one to take, feels like a defeat. Before the match I’d have taken a draw as it remains in our hands, as long as we don’t mess up.
Embarrassing they celebrated a draw with a lap of honour when we know for the title they needed to win .
1.) 07 Apr 2024 20:53:31
Highlights just how terrified they are of us and their mentality when they are celebrating a draw in a game that was a must win for them!
2.) 07 Apr 2024 21:42:45
Keepers was rubbishting himself the whole game. Maeda laughing as he knew he had tav pen in his back dancer. Only mental refereeing stopped them getting smashed.
04 Sep 2023 09:54:59
What's the thoughts on Liam Scales getting a run at LB when the CBs return from injury?
1.) 04 Sep 2023 10:38:19
We'll not know till we try. Worth a go he's got a good left foot.
2.) 04 Sep 2023 13:21:19
I think he must be better than Taylor just now.
3.) 04 Sep 2023 13:54:13
Steady,
he could be used to give Taylor/ LB position support in the short term.
As well as he did yesterday, I believe Celtic should bring someone in who's an upgrade on Taylor and that isn't Liam.

4.) 04 Sep 2023 13:56:21
Not athletic enough to play on the over lap.
5.) 04 Sep 2023 14:46:04
he's worth a try Taylor isn't the quickest. and scales has the height to defend the back post.

Not forgetting Oh and Vata.

Celtic twitter teasing one more.
22 Aug 2024 19:03:33
5 player in one week?
Do you see that happening considering how it took to get Idah and Bernardo.
Sadly I think we’re heading for disappointment, hope I’m proved wrong.
08 Aug 2024 13:23:27
Another quiet day in paradise.
Is our Board still on their holidays?
Every day that passes make it less likely we can expect circa 4-5 ‘quality’ signings when to date we’ve managed a rookie keeper, free transfer and re-signing a loan player.
