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.

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 .
13 Feb 2024 15:27:37
Rumour online that Sevco will give in and give us 2750 tickets at snake mountain.
1.) 13 Feb 2024 17:16:16
Hope they tell them to ram them, 8k or forget it, kick the Onion Bears out the Broomloan.
2.) 14 Feb 2024 07:38:36
Any uplift like this to match the euro allocation is a real step forward and undoubted admit to error from rangers, the 8k won’t happen again in my view, all I care about is Celtic stick to our guns and give them nothing until they put measures in place at ibrox first as we know this is there doing, does anyone else think they will try and not give us the allocation for next game seeing as how close the league is and will delay until next season.
3.) 14 Feb 2024 09:20:14
Tell them to ram it! They started this Shiite coz their fans got never got invited to our parties in their house. Already proved this hasn’t stopped us winning there, so, back to what it was or feck off!
4.) 14 Feb 2024 12:18:39
I'm happy with never allowing them back in.
5.) 14 Feb 2024 13:13:40
I'm ok with the status quo. Our fans aren't safe in that cesspit of anti catholicism plus Paradise with 60k Celtic supporters for that game is Paradise for me.
6.) 14 Feb 2024 17:21:56
Celtic have showed we can pick points up at Ibrox without our fans.
Sevco have also showed they fail to pick points up at Celtic Park without their fans.
7.) 15 Feb 2024 16:42:05
I agree Buzz Bomb, Rangers2012 started cutting our allocation as there fans couldn’t stand Celtic fans celebrating as we were winning far too often for them . Rangers2012 admitted that Ibrox wasn’t a safe place. for an ex Celtic player working in the media . If they couldn’t protect C Sutton, how could they protect a couple of thousand fans . Celtic still pick up good results in meaningful Ibrox games whilst Rangers2012 cannot get results at Celtic Pk .
Celtic club prefer no Rangers fans as Police can’t or won’t prevent Sevco fans from damaging Celtic Pk . In fact they can’t even prevent Police from wrecking toilets.
8.) 16 Feb 2024 04:14:43
All due respect lads doesn't matter if we pick up points there if we keep dropping silly points elsewhere as we have seen recently.
12 Jul 2023 11:13:50
Tete is apparently moving from shaqtar. He is the type of player I would like us to sign.
Young, talented, experienced and already established in the first team. This means they have a good chance to hit the ground running and can still move on for a good profit in 2-3 years time.
1.) 12 Jul 2023 12:48:27
Is there anyone you'd compare him to because I genuinely can't remember ever seeing him play.
2.) 12 Jul 2023 13:22:45
He reminds me of Scott Sinclair but is better and plays on the opposite wing.
He is a better dribbler and can go on the outside or cut infield. He is also bigger and more powerful. Just looks like a complete player.
3.) 12 Jul 2023 16:11:18
So nothing like Scot Sinclair then ?.
4.) 12 Jul 2023 17:18:31
He is like Scott Sinclair, in that he is very direct and scores a lot of goals cutting inside.
06 Jul 2023 11:06:42
Reports coming out that Connor hazard is off to Plymouth for a 6 figure fee.
Hopefully, that is us starting to trim the squad as there is a fair bit of deadwood.
I would hope to aim for a squad of 26. That would give us 2 players for every position and 1 spare GK, midfielder, defender and striker and then use our B team if we get really unfortunate with injuries.
This would reduce wage bill and give young players more opportunity to get in and about the 1st team. Remember, this is how Tierney got his chance, as all our left backs were injured.
1.) 06 Jul 2023 12:46:26
Would terminate ajetis contract if we can't get a fee and same with barkas. cheers lenny.
{Ed007's Note - Barkas has already been released.}
2.) 06 Jul 2023 13:59:46
Didn't know that mate. didc we get anything for him ed.
{Ed007's Note - No mate, Celtic agreed to release him from the last year of his contract, Barkas and his agent hope it will help allow Utrecht to afford to sign him.}
3.) 06 Jul 2023 14:46:39
Thanks Ed ??.
{Ed007's Note - ??
4.) 06 Jul 2023 14:50:46
Celtics trading model is so good we managed to get the same money for Barkas as they got for Morelos and Kent. ???.
09 May 2023 18:38:50
No Jota in team of the season.

Celtic have put up a fan survey. Sadly they didn't ask us to give our opinion on recruitment and the board.
I suggest you all go on and make your feelings clear.
1.) 02 Jul 2024 18:38:13
Got as far as my postcode but it wouldn’t accept it and ended there. Pretty sure I know where I live!
2.) 02 Jul 2024 19:46:46
I’ve completed this weejoe
Plenty of opportunities to give comments on issues you might be unhappy with, I’ve given feedback on need to prioritise first 11, how poor the main stand facilities are, how poor the board especially Lawwell is, how the wage cap (which doesn’t apply to the board) has held us back in Europe.
Would encourage everyone on here to go fill it in.
3.) 02 Jul 2024 22:04:10
Did the same. Gives plenty opportunity to let them know what needs updating, replacing and improving, apart from the team.
4.) 02 Jul 2024 22:33:34
I mentioned that sitting in the corner beside the Jock Stein we can’t see the screen at all. We’ve asked so many times for a small screen to be put up, which there was in the past but got told they couldn’t. The PA system needs sorted too, as well as the WiFi.
5.) 02 Jul 2024 22:35:42
Chasaboy you need to leave a space between the two parts, not sure if that is your issue.
@maeda @ptfp ?.
02 Jul 2024 13:19:04
Celtic board have 1 month to avoid a fan protest on flag day and a possible repeat of the unrest from the hearts game last season.
So far we are weaker than last season and we were pish last season. We have lost hart, Bernardo and Idah and signed no one.
1.) 02 Jul 2024 14:20:15
Joe, I hope you've communicated this to the board
☘️ ? ☘️.
2.) 02 Jul 2024 14:27:17
Last season we were definitely weaker than the previous and went to a difficult transition with a change of manager hampered by some very questionable and risky recruitment.
After an inconsistent spell which saw us exit a cup at the first hurdle and struggle in the CL we prevailed in the end with a double. My main concern is that The Board see this as some kind of vindication and carry on as normal.
I appreciate the 'window' has just opened and their are hundreds of players that have been involved in 2 main International tournaments.
However, it's imperative that the manager is listened to and fully backed as there is still much improvement required to progress.
3.) 02 Jul 2024 14:35:19
The Celtic Board played a dangerous game last season and got away with it.
We stayed just ahead of Sevco but with plenty of cash in the bank.
Our Board know that Sevco will regress again this season coming, for a 3rd season in a row.
But
The our fans want to win “The Celtic Way” and that includes being entertained.
I hope the Celtic Board back Brendan this time and that will allow us to play better and more attractive football.
4.) 02 Jul 2024 14:37:06
I always thought this transfer window wouldn't have much if anything happening for us, whilst the Euros are on. A lot of teams waiting to see how their own players and possible targets play before the big merry go round begins.
5.) 02 Jul 2024 15:32:29
Totally shocking that it's the 2nd of July and we haven't spent £20m yet or broken our transfer record twice!
Sack the Board, tell Brendan to GTF and get Hoopy to the Pound!
6.) 02 Jul 2024 16:10:13
Some good points raised there. ?
For the record I am not criticising the board yet. I was merely pointing out that if the board have not improved the team before our first league game then I can see there being a protest and if we got beat I could see some fans really turning on the board.
29 Jun 2024 15:32:29
@ed could you please link the video of the Celtic fan on the podcast talking about rangers making up the accolade of being the most successful club in the world.
Someone posted it the other day but can't find it.
{Ed007's Note - Sorry Joe, I've no idea what you're talking about mate......
1.) 29 Jun 2024 18:31:44
It was not your podcast.
The Celtic fan I am referring to was poking fun at Sevco. Saying that "the most successful club in the world" was a made up accolade by them, that was not even true and that we had now taken it away from them.
{Ed007's Note - Is this is it?
2.) 29 Jun 2024 18:44:45
Cheers ed, this was not the clip but I will listen to it later and see if it contains the snippet I was referring to. ?.
{Ed007's Note - Sorry mate, if anyone else can help out here let me know...??
3.) 29 Jun 2024 20:38:06
No worries mate. ?.
{Ed007's Note - I've found it but I'll need to get ed033 to put it up mate.
4.) 29 Jun 2024 21:07:27
Is that the 20minute tims one when he says loosing their fake accolade of the being the most successful club in the world is like their imaginary girlfriend is breaking up with them?
{Ed007's Note - I found it, cheers RJ
5.) 29 Jun 2024 22:30:59

New image uploaded to the
Celtic Player Sightings page entitled, Sent this to my mate and he responded that their fans were fully wound up before their club.?
Click picture for larger image
1.) 29 Jun 2024 17:14:57
That’s the picture I seen a couple of weeks ago Weejoe ?
That would be 28 days from June 7th 2024.
Rangers FC will be Liquidated on July 5th 2024.?
I wonder if or when the Scottish Media will finally run this story.
2.) 29 Jun 2024 17:35:44
They are actually already liquidated buzz.
The 4 week period you are referring to is the grace period creditors have to claim what is owed.
I loved my mates comment about it. ?.
26 Jun 2024 05:32:45
I see vitesse Arnhem are close to liquidation.
I wonder if they have any old bedsheets to write a meemo to the creditors or have tried to give liquidation the red card.
1.) 26 Jun 2024 18:45:49
Any players worth pilferaging?
2.) 26 Jun 2024 21:11:24
How about buying the club and transfer any cups and titles, that's what the Devs do, apart from buying of course???.
19 Jun 2024 06:15:35
The fact he bossed it in the CL against Athletico is what has drove his price up.
Teams know that he can play at the highest level now.
11 May 2024 12:01:50
That was the XI I wanted to start today and we have players on the bench who can come in and make a positive contribution.
With regards to buzzs comment, we have the same number of players on the bench who have scored in this fixture as they have in their starting XI.
27 Apr 2024 10:32:29
Ed if we have not identified the players for the summer, sounded them out and tried to initiate talks then we are due to repeat the previous two windows.
I expect a goal keeper, striker, winger and left back brought in quickly as soon as the window opens.
If the board don't don't do that they are going to be under major pressure for the whole window.
{Ed007's Note - I'm hoping that there are players lined up that don't require any scouting, oven-ready players Brendan Rodgers has identified and then it's up to Michael Nicholson to negotiate.}
23 Apr 2024 19:52:18
I'm same as you gggg and 3m would be top end.
13 Apr 2024 20:40:00
It is his hamstring.
If it is a grade 2 or 3 tear, then I can't see him playing again this season. If it is a grade 1 then hopefully be back for Sevco match.
02 Jul 2024 22:35:42

02 Jul 2024 16:03:58
Mally if we signed a GK, Idah and Bernardo, at best we would have stood still from last season.
That is not to say I don't want to sign them but we need to improve our first team.
02 Jul 2024 13:09:39
I doubt this was the signing the Celtic fans had hoped for although I am sure we would all welcome such a treasurer.
01 Jul 2024 14:24:14
Apologies if I have picked you up wrong mate. ?.
