Celtic look set to continue their cornering of the French youth international team by capturing Olivier Ntcham (21) this week. He would be the most recent signing in a productive relationship with Manchester City which has seen Patrick Roberts, Dedryck Boyata and Jason Denayer all make the journey to from Manchester to Glasgow.
Olivier joined City as a 16-year-old and has been on loan at Genoa for the last two years. The player will doubtlessly be impressed by the progress of Roberts and international teammate, Moussa Dembele, at Celtic Park.
Ntcham is an attacking central midfield player who will compete with Tom Rogic and Stuart Armstrong for a place in the team. At 21, he has played a lot less football than either of them, but with 30-odd games in Serie A under his belt whose progress has been meticulously planned by City since 16, we should be getting someone first-team ready.
A year ago, we were told our signings were a reaction to the arrival in town of Joey Barton. I wonder who has us worried this year? Or maybe we just plan our business well, pay our bills, tax and NI, then spend whatever is left over. Like we have done for 20 years.

Not too impressed with the new page numbering, could we not have some system whereby you know what page you are on. Why did the system change? Over to you TWC. H H Hebelt

Why is KT not in the squad?
Apparently as a young player he goes on a B list ??
I do not understand the system – just read something earlier explaining his omission on the main list

And now here is the news in Sevconia?
Jimmynotpaul , I get on well with plenty of guys who are fans of the current club playing out of Ibrox. They are good company individually but collectively , it’s not as enjoyable being in their company.
One of them last year asked how stupid were we flying Palestinian flags when we had an Israeli player in our team. I had to stop myself from replying with how stupid are you lt singing anti Catholic songs when you had Catholic players in your team. I did not want to make him look even more stupid.
And the blog is quiet here’s UEFA’s player list regs :
43.02 No club may have more than 25 players on List A during the season, two of whom must be goalkeepers. As a minimum, eight places are reserved exclusively for “locally trained players” and no club may have more than four “association- trained players” listed on these eight places on List A. List A must specify the players who qualify as being “locally trained”, as well as whether they are “club- trained” or “association-trained”. The possible combinations that enable clubs to comply with the List A requirements are set out in Annex H.
43.03 A “locally trained player” is either a “club-trained player” or an “association- trained player”.
43.04 A “club-trained player” is a player who, between the age of 15 (or the start of the season during which he turns 15) and 21 (or the end of the season during which he turns 21), and irrespective of his nationality and age, has been registered with his current club for a period, continuous or not, of three entire seasons (i.e. a period starting with the first official match of the relevant national championship and ending with the last official match of that relevant national championship) or of 36 months.

43.10 Each club is entitled to register an unlimited number of players on List B during the season. The list must be submitted by no later than 24.00CET on the day before the match in question.
43.11 A player may be registered on List B if he is born on or after 1 January 1996 and has been eligible to play for the club concerned for any uninterrupted period of two years since his 15th birthday by the time he is registered with UEFA. Players aged 16 may be registered on List B if they have been registered with the participating club for the previous two years without interruption.
All those in the standing section were sent out a new coloured changed season ticket, not too hard to figure out the reason why
What’s this all about ?????????

You are too nice, that was a real open goal.
Majority of my relatives are Sevconians. Football, or more specifically, Scottish football is no longer discussed.
All Glasgow Warriors, Man City/ Chelsea fans.

I think it’s got something to do with Opus Dei………and Mrs Liewell’s part-time “Colour-Me-Beautiful” course….

Epic game with Nadal…13-13 final set
numbering, could we not have some system whereby you know what page you are on. Why did the system change? Over to you TWC. H H Hebelt
———-
and, to be even more pedantic. the double chevrons at either side of the page numbers are being used wrongly.
they only take you 1 page back or forward.
web convention is they take you to the first and last pages
the single chevron takes you 1 page back or forward
TET,
David Low says that it @smells@ like an upcoming case to determine ownership of the assets.

Smells like another another legal battle in another front over who owns the RFC assets – TRFC formerly Sevco Scotland or Sevco 5088.

Jimmynotpaul, it was an open goal but there were a few looks of disbelief at his comment from others in his section and I thought if I answer him, I may look as bad as he made himself look, so I just left it.
In my previous office , a woman I worked with insisted I was a bigot , as at that time, I went to all our first team games in Scotland.
I explained i was not a bigot , that I never talk about religion as a person’s beliefs are their business.
She answered well I was talking to my husband about you and your support of Celtic when he told me that only bigots follow Celtic about the country.
A colleague of mine was a member of the same golf club as this woman’s husband. My colleague had told me previously this woman’s husband was not slow in slagging Catholics and Celtic.
Thanks for the answers earlier. Out on dog walking duties.

So Craigy might be back on the scene then, maybes we will finally find out what Bummer has been wanting to know for ages, “whars ra deeds ?”

4th best player in Luxembourg beats Nadal…
Hrvatski
Well, my boy made it through! He showed a bit of maturity and confidence out there today …. didn’t panic when he got behind, and just kept playing his game. There is hope for him yet.
Although, it will just get tougher with Federer up next.
Murray would seem to have a much easier draw next, but the big american hits a booming serve, and could cause a few problems if Murray isnt on the top of his game.
Sevco 5088 file a whole bunch of accounts with companies house????
Oh dear.
Oh dear, oh dear.
It never rains but it pours like that time Noah was building a dinghy…

Dallas.
Scottish society is full of wee bowling club and golf clubs were members have that sneering attitude towards Celtic.
My own Mother in law, who is a member of a relatively posh golf club said to me in all seriousness, a few years back, that the golf club was going down hill, I asked her why, she replied “the club are allowing too many Celtic fans to join” This from a woman brought up in Dundee.
It would be accurate to assume that we don’t see eye to eye.

Dundee. Thats not a surprise to me.
Loads of bitter oranges out there.
They have certain ideas about Scoddland.
Especially in the University.

Wonder how Stevie Chalmers felt when he was Cawder Club Champion on more than one occasion
Good week so far in sport for the mighty Luxembourg
That being the case, what was the shares issue about and did they own what they floated, I can hear a heavy steel door slamming shut for some.
the green man.
dundee was never orange years ago.
TGM.
She also informs me, no bigotry in Dundee, It’s a West Of Scotland problem.
She socialises with members of the judiciary, she informs me most of her friends have the same opinion.
I could go on and on, for someone who is educated, which she is, it’s scary stuff.
Hail Hail
Why is this scene not popular at Ibrox or with the SFA/SPFL??

Ive worked with historians from Dundee.
Lets just say they have certain views about Scottish History.
No point trying to put them right, be a waste of time.
Some bitter peepul out there.
