Sly are saying we have submitted a £6.5m bid for Engles. Is that the way it's done? Lowball a bid and hope it gets accepted, or is that just the way Celtic do it?
1.) 26 Aug 2024 11:29:04
Or maybe it's just the usual MSM having no idea exactly what's going on and the deal is being discussed.
Other reports saying the personal terms are already agreed but technically until a bid is accepted, we can't talk to the player.
{Ed007's Note - We can talk to his agent though. MOR had agreed terms with both Aralanta and Brighton through his agent.
2.) 26 Aug 2024 11:38:09
Been rejected going to have to go to about 8m or higher. we've got the fecking money.
3.) 26 Aug 2024 11:54:57
How many low ball bids did the Italian outfit submit fir O'Reilly if the news is to believed.
4.) 26 Aug 2024 12:10:51
Every club will most likely offer low first, if we offered say 10m to start with, we’ve shot ourselves in the foot because we then can’t go any lower than that, Atalanta offered 14m apparently for MOR then the last one was 23m, it’s just the way negotiations work.
We will have a limit for Engels but it makes financial sense to try and get the best deal possible first, have faith.
5.) 26 Aug 2024 11:33:29
They don’t know any other way. 4 days to go and they are still effin about like barsteward amateurs. Get it done!
6.) 26 Aug 2024 13:20:46
It's all well and good putting in a low figure but when it's the last few days of the window is a joke. But it's hardly a surprise is it.
23 Jul 2024 17:04:34
Reading that everything is in line for Bernardo to have a medical and then his signing will be announced.
1.) 24 Jul 2024 13:31:29
That's according to team talk who I would say are a clickbait site.
13 Jul 2024 16:44:41
There's talk that we are in the market for a second goalie in this window - if BR is looking at 2 main players plus a youngster in each position would that mean Bain and Siegrist are offski?
1.) 13 Jul 2024 17:07:38
I’m read Siegrist want to move to Australia to be with his girlfriends.
Bain is a decent Number 2.
2.) 13 Jul 2024 19:39:52
So would I buzz.
3.) 13 Jul 2024 20:32:43
Buzz,
It's an open secret Siegrist wants away ASAP.
Bain is an excuse for a GK and if he wasn't Scottish, like Welsh, he should be chased out of CP along London Rd.
Bain at best is 3rd rate and couldn'tkeep weans oot a close, I'd hope that BR is looking to bring in a back up to Kasper before this window closes.
☘️ ? ☘️.
4.) 13 Jul 2024 20:35:02
Bain is nowhere near good enough. Never will be. His lack of ambition says it all.
5.) 13 Jul 2024 22:41:11
I thought Seigrist cut a deal and was leaving on a free? I was surprised to see him against Queens Park. It didn’t work out and if he wants to go then let him I say. Whoever we get won’t do worse than a guy who contributes so little.
6.) 14 Jul 2024 00:22:36
After watching butterlands howler today? The man the daily rangers championed to replace pickford? Think kasper will be a good pair of gloves.
7.) 15 Jul 2024 10:29:45
That was the Daily Ranger trying to get their team a huge fee.
01 Jul 2024 16:18:17
Young left back, Magnus Mackenzie, has left Celtic permanently for Queens Park.
All the best young man and look forward to following your progress.
05 Jun 2024 22:03:59
This has probably done the rounds but would de Gea be a realistic option? He's on a free and keeping fit with a lower league club. Big glory nights in Europe would probably interest him.
1.) 06 Jun 2024 13:39:31
He also won the golden glove in his last full season. De Gea would be a massive step up from 95% of the names being linked to us. He’s a top class goal keeper. Every single goal keeper in world football makes howlers. Alllison, Neur, Ederson, Courtois, Donnarumma, Van Der Sar, Boruc, Forster, Cech. These guys made and still make multiple howlers every season. It happens as a goal keeper.
Dea is still very much a world class shot stopper and his ability to play out with his feet probably being the weakest part of his game but is still strong. He was best goal keeper in prem for years and you don’t just lose that. Hart was in a similar position to him before he signed and look how that turned out. De Gea also saves penalties so there’s that.
Absolute crazy to not want him to sign. He won’t sign because of the financials involved and it was literally just Peter Grant saying he’d like to see him come but still, he’d be massive for us.
2.) 06 Jun 2024 19:55:47
Video on YouTube De Gea mega howlers.
3.) 08 Jun 2024 20:32:31
Every GK makes howlers from time to time.
De Gea could pkay in Scotland in his sleep IMO, the issue would be his wages.
He'd need to take a massive drop, even with incentives, to play for us.
☘️ ? ☘️.

Just for a bit of fun - looking at bizarre pairings, such as -
Celtic v Rangers 1960s with John Beaton refereeing
Ceasar taking on the manager's job at Blackburn Rovers and finding Barbie in the sqaud.
Jock Stein taking on the Celtic job and finding Rafael is the captain.
Any others would be good to see.
1.) 24 Nov 2024 18:42:10
I think if stein had found Rafael within 200metres of the ground there could have been some negative interactions never mind as captain.
10 Oct 2024 20:11:48
Has Bernardo got a song yet?
A bit cheesey but from Abba's Fernando:
There is something in the air tonight, Bernardo
You are shining there for you and me, for 'Tic FC, Bernardo
etc.
1.) 10 Oct 2024 20:49:58
No need to get your coat as I have already put it in the taxi?.
2.) 10 Oct 2024 21:31:12
I’m loving Engels instead.
3.) 10 Oct 2024 23:16:57
Needs to adopt the nickname bernie and Ernie the milkman is the tune for him.
06 Oct 2024 12:56:13
Feckin Hale.
1.) 06 Oct 2024 14:08:18
A good Tim that laddie.3 points but it was a hard watch. Any dropped points would have been a big downer going into the international break.
16 Sep 2024 15:42:08
Just reading that the Beeb has identified Engles as one of the stars to watch in the Champions League.
Hope we've taken on a good one here.
14 Sep 2024 17:05:14
Sweet as a nut seeing that we are eight points in front of our City rivals with a far better goal difference after just five games.
1.) 14 Sep 2024 17:37:22
Love it!
26 Aug 2024 18:02:34
We sold him for £14m - can't see CP looking at what Celtic would want to pay for him - there's better out there for less.
26 Aug 2024 17:59:03
Got to remember he downed tools before he left. If he comes back he would need to significantly reduce his weekly wage, put a smile on his face and score plenty. Can you see this happening?
10 Jan 2024 20:04:12
There are two ways to go about this.
1. Speculate To Accumulate.
Go out and buy the players we need - spend a bit of money and get the players in. Offset the cost by selling/ loaning fringe players to get them off the wage bill. Net spend could end up positive.
2. The Risk Averse Method.
Sell/ Loan out the fringe players to accumulate a figure and then buy players within the amount raised. Net spend could end up negative or break even.
Guess what one looks like the Celtic method?
09 Jan 2024 20:03:56
What I was trying to get at, probably a bit cynically, was that although we are a cash rich club, we will actively look at ways of not spending.
09 Jan 2024 15:19:30
Is it the case that we offload a good number of players to free up their wages - and these wages will go towards paying for 3 or 4 players to come in and we'll still have £72m in the bank?
24 Nov 2024 15:53:51
Kuhn for a Doak swap.
14 Nov 2024 10:56:53
Souness helped identify baldy - Souness will be charged by the Sevco board to come up and sack him. Only at Ibrox.
07 Nov 2024 23:23:51
I'd have AP back as Brendan's no 2 and have Ronny D as head of the Academy. JK down at Spurs as their manager to gain experience and have Lenny as. whatever Lenny does best.
Sorry lasds, a bit p! shed at the mo and this is the best I can up with.
03 Nov 2024 17:48:00
Thought he would have come on for the last 15-20 mins against the sheep yesterday.
03 Nov 2024 17:46:43
Guy was clearly blowing his own trumpet.
