Agents talk to the media when they are not talking to Celtic

1126

One of the problems of doing your business discretely is that if and when agents or selling clubs publicise your interest in their player, media attention has a tendency to attribute too much focus on the most recent name revealed.  Teemu Pukki is a player Celtic have been trailing for some months but the fact that his agent yesterday revealed their interest is no indication that he enjoys any pre-eminence over others strikers being considered.  If anything, briefings from the agent are an indication of the opposite.

Reports yesterday that Pukki is backup in case a bid for Finnbogason fails are also wide of the mark; this is not the active path Celtic are working on.  There are (at least) two other strikers under consideration, neither of whom have directly or indirectly leaked the discussions.

Nothing sells media adverts like transfer ‘news’, which is fair enough, but news is easier to find than the actual story. This is a ‘no news’ article, the easiest of all. No panicking in the back…

    The emotional blackmail does not work for me. Contributing quietly towards Oscar does.

     

     

    Anybody wants mě to stop posting and I know you do lets hear how much your going to contribute.

     

     

    If its enough. I will go back to lurking. I promise

    BT want £15 connection & £15 per month for HD.

     

     

    I’ve sent them an e-mail – stating that…

     

     

    ‘… although this is mainly for my records, it has the date and time of sending, and it will be sent to you again in a few months time when, like ESPN, you end up begging me to take up your channel at a greatly reduced rate with no connection fee. I would greatly appreciate if you could pass on the rate I got it at to the smug chap David, who stopped you getting more of my money earlier.

     

     

    PS – I wasted the money on SKY Box Movies I’d seen before.’

     

     

    Ah the joys of no caring.

    I have never doubted your love for our club, and I really look forward to disagreeing with you again. Although, I will admit, have missed responding to you the last couple of months. HOWZAT?

    Caught the Wee Knoxy update late last night which knocked any positive thoughts I had at that point. But tomorrow is that other day, and I am hoping that there is still, well, hope for that little boy.

    I was simply defusing the situation by winding wee fra up :)

  9. All

     

     

    What are the chances of getting a Fund Raising game for our Wee Mhan. Would it be possible to entice a really big name, dare I say it, Barca, or equivalent, to contribute to the, hopefully, successful treatment he requires? I am maybe talking crap, but is it possible?

    As someone who did a bit of decorating when my health was better and who has a touch of OCD to detail:)) I was stunned at the attention to the small details all around the cathederal.

     

     

    I’m sure it was one of our own who done it as that was more than just a job to be done.

     

     

    If it was not whoever done the finishing touches could work anywhere as his work is top drawer.

    sounds grand mo chara..another wee jaunt to solitude would suit me fine..

    Cannie make the Petrov game, but would most certainly pay at least a tenner for the Wee Mhan. Totally devastated at the news. Wee Mhan deserves so much better than life has thrown at him. God bless him.

    How do I change my moniker ?

     

    ——

     

    click on your name at the top left of the page and when the profile page comes up go to “nickname” and change it there.

     

     

    If I can do it with those instructions you will be ok :))

    Based on the comment earlier from CRC, you might contact him and see what the club are thinking of.

    I think weefra’s idea is a cracker in all honestly, but it would take some amount of organisation, but seeing the other CQNs projects, it does not seem immpossable

  21. Ok guys I must be a thicko,but I can’t see how I can change my moniker on my iPad ,anyone help this numpty out.

    If your current moniker isn’t displayed at the top of the screen then you can’t get into your details to change it. I have a tablet but had to go onto my laptop to change it.
