Celtic harvesting the mascot generation

343

With St Mirren’s top of the table and derby clashes out of the way, Lewis Morgan attended a medical this morning ahead of his potential move to Celtic. The 21-year-old can play in left, right or central advanced midfield positions.

The player is out of contract in the summer and now free to choose his next contract, although a training compensation fee would be payable, the level of which Celtic have reportedly agreed with St Mirren. It is an indication of the times we live in, when a former Rangers mascot makes Celtic is his destination of choice.

That training compensation fee would not make him Celtic property until summer, so St Mirren are right to resist a little extra cash to part with him early, with their promotion push at a critical phase.

When Brendan Rodgers spoke after our Scottish Cup tie against St Mirren in March he suggested the Championship side were the best domestic opponents we had faced that season. Morgan clearly made an impression the manager followed up on.

  1. 50 shades of green on

    Are the huns doing a ” if you can’t beat them join them type of thing ” With a Declan a Sean and now a Murphy.

     

     

    Glasgow ‘s Green n white right enough.

  2. Good afternoon from a pleasent central Éire.

     

    I think the signing of Lewis Mogan is a very shrewd piece of business from all concerned, well done to Brendan and the Board.

     

    I see on SSN that Sevco have agreed a fee in the region of one million with Brigton for Murphy. The mind boggles as to how a club in such financial turmoil can afford this. Anyway feck them the Brechin game on January 20th can’t come quick enough.

  3. Dallas Dallas where the heck is Dallas on

    Jamie Murphy is an out and out sticky bun , ex of Knightswood Secondary school in Glasgow ‘s west end . The school was a hot bed of hunnery years ago . One of its alumni is Mark ‘ Grandmaster Suck ‘ Dingwall of follow follow and Rangers trust infamy.

    Rangers have been left stunned after Brazilian side Atletico Mineiro revealed they are sending a team of kids to play the Ibrox side in the first of their winter friendlies in Florida.

     

     

    *we are off tae sunny Dubai while they head out tae not so sunny Florida where Tallahassee had snow yesterday. There’s a Bomb Cyclone over the eastern seaboard, nae wonder brutas isnae going choosing Portugal instead.

    Midfield needs none other than Murdochauldandhay

     

     

    You could get away with a 4-1-5 formation :)

  11. I think we can put to bed the Admin for Sevco stuff now, would love to be wrong………

  12. Dallas Dallas as the ref btw……those things might even begin to even themselves out.

  13. Was he a ball boy for RFC 1872-2012 or Sevco? Hope the lad is successful in his time with Celtic.

  14. Punch Up In The Cockpit

     

     

    One of the pilots lost control and flight decked the other. Some witnesses said it was just a bit of handbags but I’ve not confirmed the baggage policy with the airline…

  15. Waiting patiently for news of quality signings . Signings that will go straight into the team . Signings that will enhance our chances in the Europa league . And hopefully signings that will toughen up a way to soft team . I fear I am asking for too much . Don’t think Brendan Rodgers sees where our failings lie .

  16. JIMTIM

     

     

    If you can see where our “failing lie” I’m sure Brendan will see that too.

     

     

    We are 5 days into the window………………………gie him a chance…………..at least.

    Dermot WITS,

     

     

    I thought you said that you would leave team selection to me?

  18. When is the Fat Bhoy Slim starting please?

     

     

    I could do wi’ a wee bit of extra motivation to lose the 8lbs I put on over the holiday period.

     

     

    I was off for 11 days and it’s getting noticeable.

     

     

    Help!!!!!

    Obviously the greedy politicos don’t consume the stuff.

     

     

    Scumbag bassas the lot of them.

  21. ” Don’t think Brendan Rodgers sees where our failings lie .”

     

     

    But Jimtim does.

     

     

    BR has managed in the top flight of football. I will await revelation of Jimtim`s qualifications before I decide if he knows more than Brendan.

    You need to get yourself a decent agent to negotiate for you … i’ll Give you the CQN discount!!

    Never mind when Lewis was a Sevco mascot, tell us where he hides his King Billy tatoo so he can compare his with Scott brown and Callum McGregor and several others who we have been reliably informed, over the years on CQN, are prone to sporting such tramp tats.

     

     

    I think we should be told.

    ” Signings that will enhance our chances in the Europa league ”

     

     

    Any suggestions? Even more pertinent, any guarantees? No, that`s not fair. Guaranteed improvement is virtually impossible. What about confident reassurance that X and Y `will enhance our chances in the Europa league ` ? Like I said, any suggestions?

  25. My suggested line up (343):

     

     

    Ralston Ajer Compper.

     

     

    Forrest Brown Ntcham KT

     

     

    Roberts Griff Sinclair.

    Not a criticism, a genuine question?

     

     

    What evidence are you basing your assumption that “Brendan Rodgers wont see where our failings lie” on?

    Is your first act as my agent to change my name to something more marketable??? ;)

     

     

    Is the CQN discount amortised?
