Since July I’ve written about the over-dependence we have on Kris Commons as a creative player. He’s pretty much our only option, and if he’s not fancied, injured, suspended or just off-form, we look like a team full of energy but without a key to open the door.
It may be that Ronny doesn’t figure on having a classic No. 10 in his team, and it’s more than possible that we won’t play one against European heavyweights, but against packed SPFL defences, we need someone who can create space in dangerous areas.
As we mentioned last month, some years ago Celtic reportedly looked at Bosnian international, Semir Stilic, while he was at Lech Poznan. His star faded before a journey through Ukrainian and Turkish football before he returned to Poland with Wisla Krakow 12 months ago on an 18 month contract. Since then he’s been a sensation and has kept Wisla in touch with the top of the table.
He’s refused a new contract offer from Wisla and is subject to a bid from Dinamo Zagreb, thought to be in the region of €250k. He’s likely to be on circa €2k per week. We’ve scouted the player, he’s soon out of contract, going cheap, on low wages, on form and we’re short of what he can give.
This is the kind of player Dinamo Zagreb pick up for buttons and enables them to compete as effectively as they did against Celtic with a fraction of our budget. He has the making of an effective January signing.

Rangers International Football Club plc
(“Rangers”, “RIFC” or the “Company”)
Credit Facility of £0.5 million
The Company is pleased to announce that it has entered into a short term credit facility for up to £0.5m (the “Facility”). The Facility is being provided by Alexander Easdale, a shareholder in the Company and director of The Rangers Football Club Limited, the wholly owned subsidiary of RIFC. The Facility will be used by the Company for general working capital purposes over the next few days.
Alexander Easdale will make available to the Company up to £500,000 on a fee and interest free basis and it will be secured against the income from the sale of player announced on 2 January 2015.
Under the AIM Rules for Companies, the Facility is a related party transaction under Rule 13 of the AIM Rules. The Directors of Rangers, having taken advice from their nominated adviser, WH Ireland plc, believe that the terms of the Facility are fair and reasonable as far as shareholders are concerned.

Good morning CQNers,
This morning’s media are reporting Efe as saying ‘ our form will change this year – against Kilmarnock it is going to be a different Celtic team.’
I hope its a successful change to take us out of these doldrums.

‘It’s going to be a different team….’
Or mibbee he’s been told he’s been dropped!
Reminds me of the story about a gruff borders rugby player receiving a call from the sru about the next Scotland team……
‘Shoot…..’ he says……
‘You’re oot….’ comes the reply.

First day back. Only to find that 2 weeks of eating and drinking whatever I want has caused my work clothes to shrink!
You and me both :-) time for serious fitness regime to kick in, after all these years you’d think it would be easier to avoid the over indulgence but hey, it’s good while it lasts.
Half a million.
7 days worth of capital.
If wages not due during that time.
Who is on administration papers lodgedo watch at companies house.

Can’t say I’d be disappointed – anyway, lets keep that for another day, I really hope we get a performance tonight otherwise I fear for the health of some of our apoplectic posters.

Put that half a mill together with what’s left of the messi money about £ 200,000 and you have January wage bill covered.
not sure how there covering the bills right enough, HH
Quite ironic that some “top” journalists were speculating what life will be like when thems get £30m and within 48 hours they’re having to borrow their dinner money.
Anyway, 12 hours till kick off and a shift at work and in the gym to be done ahead of that.

aye, but we WILL win. And comfortably.
Off to work…
Is that a new saviour down at the bigot dome.
Huns announce an offer from “phoenix suns ”
Have I missed them before or are they new to the never ending comedy.?
Good morning CQN

Hey dadda! So you can update everyone on CQN, Great wee day with Melbourne Mick and his Princess, they took me right through the peninsula coast, beautiful beaches and towns, stopped in at Mornington to see the Celtic Social! Brilliant! Now sipping my fizzy wine and auld Melbourne Mick is on the BBQ… Steaks yum yum! Upload pic if you can or ask doc to do it! ️Xxx
What a fantastic Celtic Welcome from Melbourne Mick and his own Princess
Thanks Mick and Maisie

Utterly bewildering how they can continue to trade while clearly being insolvent

Sounds the biz. And the kind of welcome I’d expect but always marvel at from within the Celtic family.
One slight concern, can you assure that no Melbourne Micks were hurt/used in the making of said BBQ!

KevJ ….. by using the word “retarded” to describe some Celtic supporters in the above generally disgusting post, you have gone over the line for the last time with me…… Please do not respond to this post, and be confident that I will not be reading any of your future posts (which are appalling)
