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…

Saw last twenty of Thistle game last night. It appeared that many fans were standing all round the ground in seated areas. Will this merit the intervention of the civil authorities on Health and Safety issues? Anyone out there know the answer?

KevinLasVegas @ 08:49,
Spot on, what SDM and the entourage did made Scottish Football a backwater for a generation, the only compensation was they gourged themselves to death.
There timing couldn’tbe worse though, with the advancement of the game and the political changes in Europe it will be next to impossible to re-capture those days.
Still as you say progress already, the future looks bright…

Our Board know exactly where sevco are heading, and have throughout all this…….. why interrupt the enemy when they are destroying themselves ….(the phantom £22m share money, for example, has gone)……that was reported as being their ‘saviour’
IMO, if Celtic had started rattling sabres at any stage, it would have given them, and their LL a ’cause’ to fight …..as it is, they are trundling towards the abiss AGAIN…… HH
blantyretim is praying for the knox family, Its all about opinions, people are too sensitive on here sometimes. Witch hunts on here of late and its not been as much fun as it used to be. There the Pro board and anti board or spend and don’t spend or short term long term gang, take yer pick, Not seen the support divided like this for a long time. For me we all want the same thing but its really two broader groups on here, The Patient and the not so patient. ;) Just my opinion though ;)

You are correct…..but some people have an agenda and this cloudsntheir judgement …..they become fixated on their agenda etc
67Heaven … I am Neil Lennon..!!.. Ibrox belongs to the creditors
Hope your right with regards to the board mate, it has me vexed on a daily basis our inaction is to their benefit to get good tv deal with the OF tag and then i’m like why support your nemisis for has cheated you for years. But my heart tells me your thinking is correct but its a money driven world even more so now. But i hope yer right mate.

Sevcomedians at their best (albeit displaying a little confusion with titles):
“The Rt honourable Alistair McCoist
Regardless of our troubles this man deserves a knighthood
End of message”
——
“For services for truth telling”
——
“I agree for services to Scottish football and his courage and determination during admin he certainly deserves knighted as does Walter.”
——
“What he said about Green was wrong and his managerial skills are suspect but he is one of us and he deserves a knighthood”
——
Finally, the voice of reason:
“Rangers Legend. The ultimate accolade.
(Not ready for the Knighthood yet, but is probably well on course, we’ll see what the future brings.)”
Just cleaning up the bomb site and can’t help but notice the youth of today all seem to prefare cider now! Mangers , strongbow and kopparberg?

As long as they steer clear of “K”.
That evil potion turned my kid sis teetotal in one night!
That was a really nice thing to do btw. Kudos….
Arnautovic? A goal every 5 games. Not what the first XI needs. A bullet dodged thankfully.

I registered the other day and I appear to have been kept logged in.
Will be an interesting team selection to day with the injuries/knocks and Tuesday in mind. Should still play strongest starting 11 from those fit.

The lack of numbers makes the decision to allow Irvine to go on loan to Killie all the more strange. Why not keep him until after the CL tie??
As I posted at greater length the other night for all the lack of punishment Rangers / The Rangers have received the authorities would have used any excuse to throw the book at us. How quickly would they have charged the club with disrepute if we accused them if incompetence or corruption.
Like it or not we need to stay onside with those that run the game in order to ply our trade.
So on the one hand I’d love the board to expose the shysters for what they are but on the other hand I can see why they wouldn’t.
Spending a a few nights in Dublin in Sept at the Greshham Hotel on O’Connell St on a room only basis. Can Any of you guys suggest somewhere nearby for a good Irish breakfast and good eateries for dinner. One of our party is in a wheelchair,so we don’t want to walk to far. Thanks in advance!
