Final deck clearing for deadline day

1075

The day has arrived, 31 August, on a Champions League season, but news has been slow (in general) or there has been no news (at Celtic) so far.  Pity help those who were not busy this morning and have burned through a packed of antacids.  Deadline day reveals human nature in all its glory.

Last night Ipswich Town agreed a deal to take Daryl Murphy, whom they had on loan last season and the final six months of the previous season.  Daryl would have been keen to bring his Celtic uncertainty to an end (he is out of contract when this loan period at Ipswich expires) as he has clearly enjoyed more success in the English Championship.

We didn’t see the best of Daryl but it’s good news Celtic were prepared to release him.  He would surely have been retained if there was not a good chance of recruiting a replacement.  No promises, of course!

Stay tuned throughout the day.  If we have another ‘Robbie Keane Day’ when the CQN server takes a battering I’ll update the Facebook page and Twitter.

    Breaking: Efe Ambrose has walked out on signing talks at Celtic Park after finding his rented Vauxhall Astra had been vandalised, with the near side wing mirror stolen.

    LOL! If you check efe ambrose on Wikipedia, his list of ‘honours’ is broony & big Vic

  5. Ambrose is 6′ 3″. I like the sound of him and no doubt he will be pleased to be leaving Ken Dodd’s team, FC Ashdod.

    Converts are often stronger in their faith than those born into it. WGS is most definitely a Celtic convert.

  14. Just spoke to a good pal of Russell’s agent,said there is still a good chance he will sign,a few hurdles to overcome.Offer was £1.2 mil.

  15. Snake Plissken on

    So Rather than 500 quid a week, Templeton moves up to that grand Beattie knocked back to ruin his career?

     

     

    If the boy does he is a total moron and will have flushed his career down the toilet.

  16. KevJungle is a grenade thrower. He admitted it himself a few weeks ago. He likes to cause controversy and provoke a reaction. It seems to work! :-)
