Football is theatre and good theatrical producers know how to put on a show. That being the case, Celtic will take the opportunity to give the club a timely boost on the cusp of the opening game of the season by announcing the signing of Paulo Bernardo. Perhaps our former campaigning Irish striker will even drop by before Sunday.
Celtic have been at this since Jock Stein’s days. Jock knew that pre-match press conferences were an opportunity to put a spring in the step of players and supporters alike. Brendan Rodgers’ comment yesterday that Paulo would be signed “within hours” is confirmation that the deal is done, you are just waiting for a bit of theatre.

What time and where would suit best?
Frank Carson said he came from a family of bedwettters and shared a bed with his seven brothers.
He claimed that when asked what end of the bed he wanted to sleep at, he said “the shallow end”.

Welcome back to Celtic Paulo – I think this will turn out well for us.
I think Adam will arrive on the Eve of the new season.
Unless some snake pitches up and offers him more apples than we have.
GGH
very good.
I think Celtic may well be waiting until EPL teams announce their squads to see if we can pick up any bargains. There is no excuse over Idah though. He should be here already.
I am absolutely delighted we have got Paulo Bernardo’s signing concluded. Welcome back Paulo! 🍀🍀🍀
St Mirren a big strong team this season
Watching St. Mirren v Valur and wondering why Mark O’Hara hasn’t been picked up by a bigger club. He’s got everything, energy, carries the ball , great header of the ball, crosses well and can shoot. Most important of all scores big goals (against Celtic and Rangers) from midfield. He’s just scored St. Mirren’s 3rd as I type from a wonderful volley. He’s been the main man at Dundee, Motherwell and St. Mirren. I don’t understand it.
TOSB
should Celtic go for O’hara ?
Kilmarnock drop into Conference League as Cercle Brugge take advantage of slip to win
I like Paolo Bernardo. He’s not as accomplished (yet) as Matt O’Riley but he has a lot of potential and he’s happy to sign a 5 year deal. We need to allow Callum to rest more often this season.
Which means we may need a more driving force in midfield to replicate the Brown/McGregor input of recent years. Who will provide that? Can Hatate step up and be more imposing or is he too deferential as a young Japanese guy? Could Young Holm Step up? He is well suited to the SPFL game but it’s too early to expect him to do this in Europe.
Sadly for young Lawal, I think he is falling just short of what Celtic needs. He has improved greatly at Fleetwood but he is playing.a high risk running and dribbling midfield style which does not look after the ball as much as Brendan wishes. he should enjoy a very good career elsewhere, I think.
Owen Beck 👀

I k ow it was only one game, but Yang tore Owen Beck a new one at Celtic Park.
I’ve liked what I’ve seen of Mark O’Hara when he has played against us. Wouk’s also give us another Scottish born player for UEFA purposes.
Celtic have confirmed the signing of a 5 year contract for Paulo Bernardo, however due to the time it has taken to complete, he has three weeks left on it….
Stephen McGinn,
next meeja honest guy. he will be dropped mid season
in other news.
spoke to a really top of his game constuction project manager today.
rangers supporter btw.
described the badgers den brox as the worst of clusterfux.
in all projects you dont know what is under the floor, above the ceiling or inside the walls, until you actually open them up.
except, things built in the 80s will have raac and asbestos. anyone in the indistry knows that.
conclusion, dont open it up, dont disturb what is there.
and he wont be going to hampden either

St Stivs
Given the number of goals he scores particularly against us and Thems, he would be a good player to have in the squad. Speculation about O’Riley and Hatate leaving so, yes, I think he would be a good addition. He also would increase the number of Scots in the squad. However, as in everything. I’ll be happy with Brendan’s judgement on the matter.

Speculation that we’re in for Owen Beck but Liverpool want to sell not loan.
