Celtic were looking for a right back throughout the second half of last term, but in the early weeks of his tenure, Brendan considered Mikael Lustig and Saidy Janko sufficient for the season ahead. Mikael is four years into a successful Celtic career but his fitness issues are of a persistent nature. We’ve reached Peak Swede.
Saidy missed lot of last season, also through injury, but he showed potential in his early outing this term. Aspirations for the lad crystallised in Israel last week, but not in a good way. I’m not going to defend him, because he was unquestionably poor, but agreement only exists on his poor showing because he was prepared to receive the ball so often. Not everyone in black that night was as keen to get on the end of a pass.
That opened the door for Cristian Gamboa, 26, second choice right back for West Brom. We’re very keen, apparently. West Brom manager, Tony Pulis, is less in need of a full back whose key attribute is getting forward at speed. Horses for course, I suppose, West Brom face different challenges than Celtic.
Two rumours have circulated this week: Celtic are looking for a midfield player and James McCarthy’s position at Everton is less secure than it was a year ago. Whoever has been linking these two facts has overreached – or made them up. Celtic have no idea where this one came from but were clear, there’s nothing in it. Getting the right midfielder remains a task in hand, but usual caveats apply. There are no guarantees we’ll land all our targets this summer.

Can I support you in spirit at least in your campaign to have a cafe built in the apron of Celtic Park. Sorry I shall have to miss the Killie game as had booked a late sun break – but, more importantly, miss being able to speak to uou at CQN Corner. Hope something can be done to enhance the match going experience of Celtic fans, especially those like yourself travelling from outwith Scotland.
Keep the campaign going!! HH

There’s some absolute belters in there tonight, Waghorn-pen bidding, yes bidding, should start at £4m but expect £7m. They also want to challenge the legality of the 5way agreement !!
I work with 2 monkeys and dip in now and again to see what they are discussing so I’m ready for them in the morning. Both of them knocked back my offer this morning of a goal of a start for the home game….it’s great being a Tim…

Tom Sharpe, pure genius, with his black satirical books of mayhem.
The Wilt books were my favourite and I have searched for years without success to find a novelist on par.
Just braw :-)

Mike in T. Good, as it should be.
But like ghouls, or zombies, they will return.
TET, thanks, PapaJoe55 probably does know Kill Ultra, they share a desk at a certain Level.
CRC, I’m in Northampton, so only a phone call tonight, but she is in better fettle. White Blood Cell count is down, and that is good. It means less need for WBC’s to fight infection.
The badges should have been on, only the well designed ones though:-)
Now to think of that list of 10 beautiful women………
Good Lord, that sounds bad:-0
In fact why don’t,t we have Marys Meals right by Celtic Park….
Perfect fit …corporate and public…

I haven’t seen may complaining to be fair.
Did you win your darts match last night ?
One day I hope to take you on, I practice about half an hour to an hour a day in the summer and prob about two to three hours a day in the winter, just to keep the eye in as they say :-)
HH
Hi mate.Yes I won through to the finals on Saturday.Saturday is a bit different though.All the top players from,Izmir,Bodrum,etc,will be there.Still,I have beaten them,and lost against them before.Will be a great day.Darts in the afternoon,then BBqueue and live band on at night right on the beach.
I practise about 30 mins a day,and a couple of hours playing in the pub a week.You know what they say about practise.About 30 years ago I was gubbing Scotland Internationals for money regularly.I was shit hot then.Have to wear glasses now to play,and its not the same.The Darts here have really taken off big time.Helps a lot with the social side of things,especially in the Winter months when the leagues are played.
Keep practising,maybe one day we will get a head to head.
Hail Hail.

Aw naw no a green brigade cafe …. there would be no seats and we would all have to be standing, bouncing, huddling and that fn drum would be drowning out polite conversation !
Calibhoy … that was a long time ago …. you are testing my memory now … it was Rattlesnakes for Lloyd Cole and Knife for Aztec Camera as I recall, so what was that… 1984/85? … Aztec Camera was at the Concert Hall, but, for the life of me, I cant remember the LC venue ….LC is still one of my very favourite artists, and I have seen him so many times over the years, some of the older shows are running together … fortunately, the LC show started later in the evening, so we saw AC, then hopped to the LC show, and didn’t miss too much of it….

Hippies are not dead…we just smell bad…(from an idea by FZappa)
BTW…On Zappa’s album ‘Live at Roxy and Elsewhere’ he does a song about Richard Nixon… ‘Son of Orange County’ with the immortal line…”I am not a crook” I think it best describes Dave King…
