    Patrick Roberts is expected in Glasgow on Monday for a medical ahead of rejoining Celtic on loan. [@JPercyTelegraph]

  2. 16 Roads: I’m looking for a ticket for the All Ireland football final. DUBLIN v Mayo. Can you get me one?

  3. I would take Paddy on loan again if that is the only option available. However, at the end of next season he would go back to Citeh and that will be that, probably. Realistically Moussa will go next summer and we will be in the same boat with Armstrong entering his final year. Simunovic seems to have aspirations of playing down south so he may go too. Who knows what will happen with KT and Rogic will be in the last year of his deal. Brown and Lustig will be a year older and you cant keep going to the well with those two.

     

     

    So, three important transfer windows coming up including this one. In Brendan we trust.

  4. VP,

     

     

    I hope you are right

     

     

    Collum started going into full SFA referee mode when ST J scored. Not a free kick given for anything.

     

     

    The Referee Fraternity obviously want to be the officials to be the Ones to stop the run.

     

     

    The Standside Linesman was an utter disgrace, their forward was so offside just about every time the keeper kicked the ball from the Multitude of goal kicks he hooooofed up the Park. Worst ever Linesman performance ever.

     

     

    Aye they got a sniff. GIRFUY – SFA – Cheating Officials.

     

     

    Yer a pile of Excrement.

    End it.

  5. The Standside Linesman was an utter disgrace, their forward was so offside just about every time the keeper kicked the ball from the Multitude of goal kicks he hooooofed up the Park. Worst ever Linesman performance ever.

     

     

    You cannot be offside from a goal kick.

    Reports from down south saying Paddy Roberts due in Glasgow tomorrow for a medical at #Celtic.

  7. Bateen Bhoy says PADDY COME HOME on

    I saw a post earlier appearing to cast aspersions on Conor McGregor because he didn’t finish his apprenticeship/ was a crap plumber…..

     

    I’m sure he regrets that decision every single day, and so will his family, probably for generations to come.

     

    Well done Conor. You let no-one down and did a helluva lot better than many gave you any chance of doing.

    I’ll try to get you a ticket Almore.

     

     

    Mayo deserve to win the thing anyway in all honesty.

     

     

    Dublin are the Irish equivalent of the old dead Rangers team nowadays.

     

     

    If yous do win the damn thing I’ll be the first to congratulate ye mo chara.

     

     

    HH.

  9. Celtic supporters and wingers.

     

     

    Who remembers the excitement when Joe Miller was signed?

     

     

    He started brilliantly too.

     

     

    Joe is the guest on the latest episode of the CQN podcast that is gaining a huge audience week on week. Have a listen and let us know what you think.

    This is the Optimal Season. :))) or is it?

     

     

    The game against PSG is massive.

     

     

    I want Celtic First in the group, not 2nd.

     

     

    I Believe Celtic will be First.

  11. Have to say that if the reports that Paddy deal is another loan then I’m underwhelmed. Why waste money on a loan deal to help City to get more for him when they inevitably sell him in the next summer? Surely buy a wide right player and develop him for Celtic is a better option.

     

    Permanent deal, or loan with agreement to buy should be only options if he’s coming back.

  12. Dallas Dallas where the heck is Dallas on

    Gerry at 8.10 , our mutual Motherwell supporting colleague’s views on the Ibrox clubs emphasised your point .

     

     

    Almore , I didn’t know that’s why that part of Croke Park was called Hill 16.

     

     

    In the credits on early Pogues LP’s , I think their then manager , Frank Murray (?) , worked for Hill 16 productions .

  13. theBHOYfromU.N.C.L.E on

    We should get a permanent deal done and then loan him back to Man City……

     

     

    options csc

  14. 16 Roads: Cheers. Dublin are dominant at the moment and rightly so because they play at a level way better than everyone else. It wasn’t always that way so I’m just enjoying it for what it is.

     

     

    Mayo are the best of the rest but I just don’t think they are good enough to beat us. If they do, I’ll be the first to congratulate them.

     

     

    The final will tell.

     

     

    Up de Dubs.

    ………………………………………………………………………………..

     

     

    Apologies, I didn’t know that.

  16. Delaneys Dunky on

    Almore

     

     

    Good win, well done.

     

    Your fellow Dub WITS was in great form yesterday. Unlike his horse tips. ;))

  17. Dallas Dallas where the heck is Dallas on

    Petec, Collum was unnecessarily close to the play when we had possession , once blocking a pass we were playing out of defence plus had to jump out of the way a few other times.

     

     

    He like most of ours refs and their unofficial boss , Shuggie Dallas , are one of the blights on Scittish football.

  18. Dallas Dallas: That’s the narrative I grew up with but the programme I recommended just debunked that. A few of my past pupils appeared in the programme.

  19. What is the Stars on

    Delaneys

     

    Good day oot yesterday

     

    Was well oiled getting on the plane

     

    Good company

  20. Delaneys Dunky on

    Dallas

     

     

    My resentment towards Wee Wullie Winkie, grows with every Celtic game he officiates. He is good at ‘game management’ like his big friend Thompson. Yesterday was terrible refereeing, from the first minute when Davidson got sparkled , and he never stopped play, incompetent wee guy at his job.

  21. DD: Cheers G. Still working on when to come over. Can’t do CL home games as they are on Tuesdays but will definitely be over before Christmas. Looking at Hootenanny also.

     

     

    Glad you said it about WiTS tips, I think most of his horses are still running:-).

     

     

    Top Dub/Tim though.

     

     

    Anyone got a ticket for the All Ireland football final to spare?

  22. THETIMREAPER on 27TH AUGUST 2017 8:48 PM

     

     

    If we’re successful we’re always going to rebuilding. 99% of players are always going to want to move to England. I don’t blame them. The money, the prestige, the opportunities that open up if they are successful. Here the CL is a draw but isn’t guaranteed. The qualifiers are fraught with danger and If we get there, then it is likely to be only be 6 games and out. Times have moved on from just a decade ago and the gap to the elite clubs is getting ever wider.

     

     

    Even if we signed Roberts on a 4 year contract, I think we get maximum 2 years, maybe only 1. Armstrong could have played out the last year of his contract and made the money he misses out on back in wages and signing on fee so he’s done us a favour signing a new deal. Jozo has 2 years left to go so if he doesn’t get a new contract now is the ideal time to sell from a contract viewpoint, but our problems at centre half should make that an impossibility.

     

     

    We have to understand where we are in the food chain. Southampton are a bigger attraction and they can’t keep hold of their players. Liverpool, Dortmund and particularly Arsenal all having problems with keeping their stars.

     

     

    It is the restraints of the league we play in. Until such point as there is a restructuring in Europe we just have to try and stay relevant, and getting to the CL is essential for doing so. Quality players will leave and it gets harder to replace them. Enjoy them while they are here.

  23. 16 roads - Celtic über alles... on

    Fair enough Almore.

     

     

    Resources could well be another major factor.

     

     

    We’ll agree to disagree.

     

     

    Still maintain that Mayo deserve to win it though.

     

     

    Amazing city that Dublin, it’s beautiful to see the American flag still fly high along side the banner of the Republic.

     

     

    KTF.

  24. Stars

     

    So all that rubble I procured from Hill 16 when they were re developing Croker isn’t the rubble I thot it was, Oh Well, may as well keep it anyways as a souviner :-(

     

    HH

     

    That young fella Assensio is special.

  25. Have a feeling that having a top class manager will show up the the lack of a top class support. By Thursday we are likely to need 2 CB’s and a CF. We will get Paddy but I fear and expect to be left weaker by Friday morning….

     

     

    damn medicals and players agents….

  26. WITS: the programme I recommender said that the rubble for the foundations for Hill 16 dated no later than 1915.

     

     

    However, the 1916 story is what I grew up with. Happy to be corrected.

     

     

    In fairness, I gave up history for the Leaving Cert.

     

     

    Back to work tomorrow. It will be a long nine weeks until my next holiday but the half day every Wednesday helps. As does the Friday we voted for ourselves at the beginning of October.

  27. Looks like Real Madrid having central defensive issues too. Pepe transferred,Garage injured and Ramos suspended. Midfielder casemiro in central defense tonight.

  28. Got a Polis next door and now a big Yellow van with a black roof is taking up parking space – not moved for a week.

     

     

    Domestic or International Terrorism being monitored….. or Believers.

     

     

    Get that eye sore to feck.

     

     

    The Laws to be brought in……

     

     

    Hahaha
