Has the Benkovic deal been confirmed?
1.) 31 Aug 2018 21:13:49
Just asked the same thing.
2.) 31 Aug 2018 21:26:00
Yeah this afternoon on the bbc. Nothing on Dembele tho so i dunno where all the sources that he is away are.
3.) 31 Aug 2018 21:40:40
Official site and br press release.
4.) 31 Aug 2018 21:43:38
It's not on the Celtic website to can't be confirmed.
5.) 31 Aug 2018 22:27:30
I’m not sure if it’s been confirmed yet there’s nothing on the Celtic website or ssn. I hope it’s confirmed it’s been an embarrassing transfer window.

Ed, you heard anything about the Billy Glimour to Celtic rumours? Do you reckon there is anything in it? Give it 5 or 6 years and we could have Gilmour and Dembele (Karamoko) in the same side.
{Ed007's Note - A women I know who works at Celtic Park told me that there was murmurings the other day that Gilmour and his dad had a late night meeting with Peter Lawwell but one of the youth players who know Gilmour says differently - he says that the lad's dad has met Lawwell and Congerton a couple of times over the last few weeks and Lawwell has asked the Gilmours not to sign for anyone without giving Celtic a chance to at least match any offer.}
1.) 01 Apr 2017 17:20:42
He's a Celtic fan by trade is he not ED?
{Ed007's Note - So I've heard but I don't know for sure.}
2.) 01 Apr 2017 17:48:51
Anno 100 percent his mother is.
3.) 01 Apr 2017 18:39:04
ED007 and guys when I heard this story I genuinely thought it was an April Fools.
{Ed007's Note - Our scouting/recruitment department wouldn't be doing it's job if they weren't interested when a young player like Gilmour being available. I think he'll end up in England but I don' see the big deal, Dylan McGeouch never encountered any problems when he switched between youth set-ups.
And if people are going to give a 16 year old lad (and his family) dog's abuse over leaving Ibrox for Celtic Park they shouldn't be allowed out the house alone.}
4.) 01 Apr 2017 20:33:59
ED007 maybe wee traitor mo johnston is advising him lol.
{Ed007's Note - Tell Mrs Tim I said she's to wash your mouth out!}
5.) 01 Apr 2017 20:52:25
Great point ED. out development squad seem very strong at the moment. Kelleher will make an appearance in our squad at some point I'd imagine.
{Ed007's Note - Exactly. Why wouldn't we be interested in Gilmour? If he's as good a prospect as people who know more about it than me think it's a no-brainer. If he's got any sense he'll definitely leave TRIFC, their academy set up is a shambles compared to clubs with a 10th of their budget.}
6.) 01 Apr 2017 21:13:16
Ed a wouldn't like to see the abuse the lad would take, if he signs on for them he'll be their best chance to get out the mire. He wouldn't be able to live in Scotland if he signed for us mate, they've pinned all their hopes on the boy. If we signed him he'd need to live underground.
{Ed007's Note - By the time he made the first team only the most staunch of knuckle-dragger would have any great grievance against the kid.
7.) 02 Apr 2017 04:01:56
If he signs now it will be a mere footnote in the rags no matter of the lads ability, hopefully, there loss. If it is all quiet at the crumble dome come summer and he develops as a target I'd say jump and get the lad if he is decent. watch the story develop and laugh. If it's too much move south get a good wage and help his family and avoid the poison of the city switch.
8.) 02 Apr 2017 10:14:59
thats them all, lol.
16 Feb 2017 12:06:01
Anyone heard the rumour that Celtic are interested in signing Billy Gilmour? Apparently he turns 16 in June and both parties are keen but loads of big clubs after him. Think BR could really develop him and he has show with KT, Miller and Aitchison that you'll get a chance if good enough. This would also have the added bonus of making the Sevconians utterly raging 😂.
1.) 16 Feb 2017 15:24:46
Would we have to pay compensation for him?
2.) 16 Feb 2017 19:09:13
I'd say so if he is still classed as an academy player. It will be buttons, low risk and admittedly a big giruy. He hasn't signed pro yet as far as I know.
3.) 16 Feb 2017 21:11:01
Tell the huns we"ll wave the money for the damage to our bogs and we"ll take Gilmour.
4.) 16 Feb 2017 21:31:43
Stevie on those basic fair and sensible compo for compo grounds mentioned id say pefect business. However inluding the current currant bun financial law case climate into that sensible, fair and apt offer. we will be lucky to sign him before his 40th.
30 Jun 2015 22:58:09
Apparently Janko to be unveiled tomorrow? Anyone else heard this?
1.) 01 Jul 2015 09:53:56
Hopefully m8! Any news ed007?
{Ed007's Note - The deal is done, I don't know what's holding up the announcement but technically the transfer window for international transfers only opens today. Even Boyata couldn't be registered as a CFC player until today.}
2.) 01 Jul 2015 10:14:45
Cheers ed007 some guy!ðŸ‘
{Ed007's Note - (yes)
3.) 01 Jul 2015 12:27:27
Wonder who disagrees must b some1 ed put in his place lol hail hail
4.) 01 Jul 2015 18:07:33
On the CFC web site
He has signed on a 4 year deal subject to medical results that club expect tomorrow morning
29 Jun 2015 20:57:47
Any update on Saidy Janko Ed? Thought this was being done today. Cheers
{Ed007's Note - I don't know mate, he was due up today for further talks and a medical. Everybody expected an announcement today. He was up last week to meet RD and be shown around CP and Lennoxtown so I'd take a guess that if there's a hold up it's just finalising personal matters in Manchester.}

Hopefully they put it at the entrance to the away end. ?.

I thought it was photoshopped but I’m sure it will be a sign of the future.

Anymore pics of this?

Anyone see this? Quite unbelievable how deluded they are:
Let’s talk about “The decisions that went against Celtic”. Or does that not fit Daily Record Sports anti Celtic agenda? https://t.co/ajbWDVxQRZ pic.twitter.com/FhF3swI3jn

All valid points martyc but the Scottish Media always have blue tinted specs on.
2.) 01 Jan 2024 14:59:43
Don't care about all the contested decisions now . we won. 3 points. top of league.
3.) 01 Jan 2024 15:24:54
The one game they don't get their mandatory PK (because he was offside! ) ; they stamp their feet and bubble, demanding why.
The studs-showing tackle on Bernardo and Balogun spitting on supporters is swept under the shag pile by the shag pile.
4.) 01 Jan 2024 17:28:49
Buzz bomb is there any a Scottish club can propose a rule change for Scottish Domestic Football. Has it to be for a specific time of season .
The changes I would like a club to propose are
No employee of any club can referee a game in the Division his employer club plays in
No ref can take charge of any game in Division that family member plays for a club
Referees cannot ref a game if he played for one of the teams involved even as an underage player
Ref cannot referee game if he is a regular drinker in any club’s supporters club bar.
Can the rule under which Rangers 2012 cannot concede a penalty be fully explained . Is that why when Turnball was fouled in penalty area, On 30th there was no need to check to VAR as the No Rangers Pen.
5.) 01 Jan 2024 21:24:59
Said watching the game he had studded bernardo.
6.) 02 Jan 2024 08:58:17
Didn't only stud him he wrapped a leg round at pace in the follow through. That's at risk of breaking a leg. But rangers free kick, no card?
22 Dec 2023 19:17:32
Ed, a very Merry Xmas to you and your family. Thank you very much for all the time and effort you put in to make this such a great site. Marty.
{Ed007's Note - Thanks, Marty and a Merry Christmas to you and yours ?

I see Matt O’Reilly is making his full Denmark debut tonight away to NI. Hopefully he puts on a show.
1.) 20 Nov 2023 19:58:03
Maybe better if he doesn't?
2.) 20 Nov 2023 20:07:43
He's our next 25 million plus transfer. Probably this summer but i hope he's here for next season.
3.) 20 Nov 2023 20:36:03
I prefer if he is with us for at least another four or five yrs . Our last two £25 m players haven’t exactly boasted their reputations since they left us . If fans and SMSM continue to speculate on our best player (s) leave after a couple of years it’s inevitable that some will go and there ends our chances of improving our Champions League performances.
4.) 20 Nov 2023 20:37:30
Their fans will demand the players take it in turns to kick him.
Matt will be lucky to make it off the park without an injury.
5.) 21 Nov 2023 19:51:41
An unlucky story from Cork . Ire under 21’s. V Italy . Ire led going into half time but Italy equalised from pen in last min of first half .
Ire went back into league and after 5 and a half mins of 5 added on in 2 nd half Italy equalised after an unfortunate own goal.
26 Aug 2023 17:39:56
I disagree. The board can take some of the blame but Rodgers need to do better with the players at his disposal. He’s got most of a treble winning team to work with and he is moaning about lacking the quality to beat Killie. Also, he constantly goes on about finances and is basically writing off Europe. How about earning the largest salary in Scottish football history? Say what you want about that lot but speak positively about going to PSV and winning despite the large disparity in finances. It’s all Rodgers goes on about and this lack of belief must filter through to the players as he’s basically saying they are not good enough. I have a bad feeling this is going to end bad.
1.) 26 Aug 2023 18:02:44
Rodgers appointment was a huge mistake. Should have gone all out for Knutsen, with guaranteed dynamic football, probably even a step up from Angeball. Now we have utter dross, Rodgers shows no passion on the sidelines. Big mistake! His style of play is awful to watch.
2.) 26 Aug 2023 18:06:19
What I can't understand is attacking-wise we have the nucleus of last season's team (minus Jota) , we have the same coaching staff, the same objectives, expectations, support and facilities but we have lost confidence, composure and struggling against teams we should batter. We expected a period of transition, but not a huge step backwards.
The players were quoted as saying how much they were enjoying working with the new manager and some even signed contract extensions, so why are so many of them underperforming and ineffective?
There is a fair chance we could see a MON style treble signing before next weekend and I hope we have a better September.
03 Dec 2023 11:36:45
Where is Nawrocki? He’s a strange one.
26 Jun 2022 13:20:23
Ed, do you think we will sign Souza, Jota and Bernebai this week?
{Ed007's Note - I'm not sure about Souza but the other two should be announced over the next few days to be finalised on July 1st.
Preseason starts tomorrow - apart from players who were on international duty so I expect the serious work on the ins & outs of the squad will begin.}
31 Aug 2018 21:43:38
It's not on the Celtic website to can't be confirmed.
12 Aug 2018 17:02:54
Don't know how that's possible. Didn't the team leave for Athens this morning?
22 Aug 2017 19:17:09
Sardar Azmoun.
{Ed007's Note - Sardar Azmoun signed with Rubin Kazan last month.}
07 Jun 2024 21:33:27
Really don’t see it with Gilmour. Offers nothing for me.
15 May 2024 16:41:46
Fantastic news to cap off a ‘fun’ week. Delighted for you and your family, Tim.
07 May 2024 14:44:44
Was Colllum what you predicted for the game, Buzz? I know you done a piece on this but can’t find it.
15 Feb 2024 18:59:03
Great news Michael, congratulations to you and the family ?.
01 Nov 2023 21:47:35
Any idea that impacts the team is just a silly suggestion.
