Reports saying Tisdale will be head of scouting.
1.) 15 Oct 2024 10:43:51
Meant to say head of recruitment. ?.
09 Oct 2024 22:16:03
Ed you got any news on Paul Tisdale appointment?
{Ed007's Note - Surely that's not serious? What next, a monorail around Celtic Park?
1.) 10 Oct 2024 06:10:43
Reports saying he is coming in to replace mark lawwell.
30 Jul 2024 16:39:04
There is a rumour we are in for shankland.
I would prefer not to have a second striker than have him.
This is shocking if this is the best our scouting team can find.
1.) 30 Jul 2024 17:39:40
Idah not playing again.
2.) 30 Jul 2024 17:45:09
I would be surprised if Celtic buy Shankland because he has little sell on value, compared to younger players Idah and Miovski.
Granted Shankland is only 28 and he still has a couple of good years in him.
He’s a good finisher and decent with build up play but his weakness is his pace.
3.) 30 Jul 2024 17:47:54
If and that’s a BIG IF - we would be better off going for Miovski - younger quicker and in our team would score 20 goals a season.
4.) 30 Jul 2024 18:14:40
Think Norwich are addressing the idah speculation after tonight's game.
5.) 30 Jul 2024 18:52:54
There’s a stalemate for idah £1.50 Million between what we offered to the amount Norwich want!
6.) 30 Jul 2024 18:54:47
Hopefully Idah coming to us. Not impressed if we go for Shankland, he has no pace and doesn't hold the ball up as good as Idah.
I am sure BR would rather have Idah.
7.) 30 Jul 2024 20:58:38
Hope you are right buzz as I don't think he would be suited to our system.
Not saying he wouldn't score goals or he is a bad player, I just feel he is a bad option.
8.) 30 Jul 2024 21:20:03
Shankland story sounds like mischief making, considering his links to SEVCO.
If, for any reason, we can't sign Idah, I'd take Muovski - he'd score for fun in our team.
Having said that, I'd like to think our scouting network is looking further afield as there must be several other options out there ?
☘️ ? ☘️.
9.) 30 Jul 2024 22:56:39
They are trying to unsettle Shankland before Saturday.
The story is now, sevco are leading race against us to get him, with no proof whatsoever that we are even interested in him.
I would rather have Miovski over Shankland and Idah over them both.
10.) 31 Jul 2024 00:34:04
We ain't in the slightest Interseted in Shankland or Miovski. BR knows how he wants his striker to play. Idah is the Moose MkII. It's happening. Please zombie fc buy shankland for 2m and we don't need to worry that they might pull a rabbit out the hat coz we know shankland ain't taking them up close to our level.
13 Jul 2024 14:35:17
Fee for oh being reported as 4.2M. If true, that is good business and hopefully have a sell on clause.
I would have liked oh to have made the grade and thought he would but sadly it didn't work out the way I had hoped.
1.) 13 Jul 2024 14:49:13
Apparently having a medical now go get idah.
{Ed007's Note - Idah isn't in the Norwich squad for their friendly today.}
2.) 13 Jul 2024 15:34:35
Saw that mate here's hoping.
3.) 13 Jul 2024 15:42:30
Liked big Oh and he tried hard to impress; best of luck big man.
4.) 13 Jul 2024 17:09:27
Well done Celtic for offloading and getting decent money in return. On a personal level to Oh, good luck for the future.
5.) 13 Jul 2024 18:09:57
Ed, I have everything crossed since I saw that. Get him in sooner amd then Bernardo and it will give us a few weeks to top up with a couple quality new faces and then watch the panic across the city.
{Ed007's Note - I think both Idah and Bernardo will be done by Tuesday.}
6.) 13 Jul 2024 19:20:28
You would imagine Idah is imminent if they have let OH go. The fact he isn’t in there squad also backs that up.
08 Apr 2024 10:09:03
The news of Celtic's interest in Uğurcan Çakır as a goalkeeper is indeed intriguing, especially considering its unusual presence in the media. While transfer stories are not uncommon, this one stands out due to its detailed account of our CEO's direct involvement, including a reported email to Trabzonspor with a specific bid and requests to engage with the player and his agent.
Such public disclosure of our club's negotiation tactics is unprecedented in my experience supporting Celtic. It's noteworthy that Brendan's desire for a video call with the player is mentioned, suggesting a proactive approach to secure the deal.
Speculatively, it seems the story may have originated from our CEO, perhaps as a strategic move to demonstrate transparency and early action, possibly in response to past fan criticisms of transfer dealings.
1.) 08 Apr 2024 11:37:35
Let's hope he's the real deal can't afford another barkas.
2.) 08 Apr 2024 21:12:22
I read tonight they want 12.5 million so we can put that to bed.
3.) 10 Apr 2024 12:02:29
What clubs want and what clubs get is a totally different matter. I don't know much about the guy . But going on reports from some of his clubs fans they wouldn't be very disappointed to see the back of him .

Here are some champions league results to put things in perspective.
Bayern 8-2 Barcelona
Man city 7-0 schalke
Liverpool 8-0 besiktas
Juventus 7-0 olympiakos
Bayern 7-0 shaktar
Liverpool 7-0 spartak
Man city 7-0 RB Leipzig
Man utd 7-0 Roma
Bayern 7-1 Roma
There are loads more were teams who spend way more than us get absolutely hammered by one of top teams. These top teams are capable of handing out a drubbing to anyone, even other top teams.
While last night was not good viewing for us, we need to remember that we go into these games as massive under dogs and Dortmund were last season's finalists and are miles ahead of us in terms of players.
1.) 02 Oct 2024 08:41:58
The point is we have conceded 7 three times and a 6 last season, He isn’t learning and playing 3 up front away to a top team in lunacy!
2.) 02 Oct 2024 09:38:40
we don't have the players to play any other way.
3.) 02 Oct 2024 11:35:39
These results don't really provide any perspective Joe. Last night wasn't some sort of freak result, it wasn't even that surprising. I had a bit of hope in the build-up but going 1-0 down after 6 minutes sobered me up pretty quickly.
29 Sep 2024 08:35:36
Not sure how reliable the site is but it's saying that in all competitions Kuhn has scored 5 and assisted 8 this season.
He is our main attacking threat this season and if he keeps those stats up, stays injury free, then he is going to be our next bumper transfer.
1.) 29 Sep 2024 09:14:33
McManus, first pundit to jump into the trap set by BR. He made a quip about the criticism of us last season about not playing good football, and straight away the 2nd village idiot jumps straight in.
He suggests our Manager has sullied his credibility but the clown doesn't realise, it is him that has done this.
Him and Keevins, who now questions our chances in Europe and thinks 'they' are back in challenging for the league, need to look in the mirror at how embrrasing they are, how much they chop and change their opiions and how much they are hurting looking at what our team are capable of.
No comment from any of them about the terrible refereeing decision yesterday to disallow a goal.
A total embarrassment for Scottish refereeing yet again.
The defender was responsible for the coming together after he lost Trusty but any opportunity to take a goal from us, VAR are jumping on it.
It's going to be a painful season for many of them.
2.) 29 Sep 2024 11:58:37
Before last night,
Khun had 11 goal contributions in 495 minutes this season.
( average every 45 mins )
3.) 29 Sep 2024 12:03:39
Khun had another 2 goal contributions last night.
Khun now has 13 goal contributions in the 561 minutes he has played this season.
( an average of every 43 minutes )
4.) 29 Sep 2024 12:57:00
It is phenomenal. While I can't see him keeping it up, I do think there is a good chance that he beats MOR tally from last season.
25 Sep 2024 06:48:13
Is Keith "smokey beef" Jackson the worst journalist in Scotland?
Just read his opinion piece of Craigy whytes recent interview on social media and have to say it was moronic. ?
Big smokey beef is trying to direct people away from watching it and claims he didn't watch it. However, he knows what is in the interview. ?
Obviously Jackson's piece will have the opposite effect from which he intended and more people will go and watch it now. ?
P.S. Should we build a statue of Craig Whyte outside the away end at Celtic park? I wonder if the statue defenders would break ranks to defend it when the visiting sevco fans attacked?
1.) 25 Sep 2024 11:05:27
Sir David Murray deserves a good mention also ?.
2.) 25 Sep 2024 11:35:34
Was it not keech that said he was a billionaire with off the radar wealth ??.
3.) 25 Sep 2024 11:51:58
Jackson is a clown, writes whatever he is told, doesn't have a single bit of journalistic credibility.
He steals others stories and claims them for himself.
Him, English, Keevins they all dance to the Govan tune.
They had a chance to write the truth about Kings previous history at Ibrokes but chose to indulge him in his fantasy about how it went. Him and slippy.
They then have a chance to challenge the latest Chairman on what he said but chose to indulge him in his fantasy about investment and challenging us. The idea of sustainability has left with Bennett.
Foreign investment is nowhere, the same investors pumping money in to buy players in January, laying down to placate the hordes who do not accept austerity.
Whyte, the less said about that sniffling, cheating, lying con-man the better but again, none of them came out and challenged a single word that guy said.
Rewriting his own history, trying to claim HMRC offered him a deal, claiming they could have been saved.
If that was us, the media would have had it front page for last 12 years.
4.) 25 Sep 2024 12:18:21
off the taxman’s radar…. if DM ever creeps into my thoughts I alway remember my version of his boast. ‘For every fiver that Celtic spend, we’ll spend a tenner…. of everybody else’s ?
‘.
21 Sep 2024 10:57:04
When the ball went out of play, one of the characteristics of Ange ball was to get it back in play as quick as possible and attack again.
Last season this vanished from our play but it has returned this season. I suspect Brendan and the players have had a chat and the players wanted it back and Brendan has allowed it. Obviously I am surmising as the reason for its return but it has most definitely returned.
1.) 21 Sep 2024 14:59:26
Except at throw ins as we are the worst team in the world at taking or defending them.
For as long as I can remember.
2.) 21 Sep 2024 15:52:05
I agree mate, greg taylor and tierney before him always seem to take an absolute age at throw ins.
19 Sep 2024 05:43:15
I noticed Sparta Prague spanked RB Leipzig 3-0 last night.
1.) 19 Sep 2024 07:26:13
It was Salzburg the best 3-0 ?.
15 Oct 2024 10:43:51
Meant to say head of recruitment. ?.
10 Oct 2024 06:10:43
Reports saying he is coming in to replace mark lawwell.
14 Sep 2024 14:10:50
That is a strong bench as well. ?.
29 Aug 2024 16:20:27
We still have not spent last year's budget as we had about 30-35M left over.
29 Aug 2024 03:43:11
Agreed ed.
However Rodgers claimed we would sign 1 midfielder and 2 if MOR left. So while I accept that we couldn't buy the second before he left. There is no excuse for not getting the first before mor's departure. Failure to do so will have added millions to the fee.
13 Oct 2024 13:22:33
There are very few politicians that I like or respect. I could probably count them on one hand.
13 Oct 2024 11:38:22
Not going to lie, I was not a fan.
{Ed007's Note - It was a shame the way things ended but in his prime Salmond was a formidable politician who had the balls to take on Westminster - and he nearly won.
I'd take Salmond over your Sturgeon etc any day when it comes to running - and doing the best for - Scotland.
12 Oct 2024 16:38:16
I wish none of our players ever played for Scotland again. They helped oldco rangers cheat for over a decade and then made sure they didn't get punished sufficiently.
12 Oct 2024 07:38:12
I think we would all like to get better in Europe but we also need to accept that at the moment our level is conference or Europa.
However, we should not accept our fate and should be looking at ways to to get even better. Personally speaking, I think we are in a good position financially and in terms of squad.
What we need to do now is improve our scouting, data analysis, coaching, sports science, and facilities. While we can't compete with the super rich in terms of transfers. We can compete in other aspects and improve our success at developing and signing the next new stars in the game.
07 Oct 2024 05:22:42
It happens every season Steff and has done for years.
