Things looked touch and go earlier today but Celtic pulled a late double swoop to sign John Guidetti on loan from Manchester City, and Stefan Scepovic on a four year deal from Sporting Gijon. Guidetti has been a Celtic transfer rumour since his 20 goals in 23 games stint at Feyenoord as a teenager in 2011-12. Now he’s on board, I’m holding out for news of Georgi Kinkladze.
Stefan Scepovic could have played his hand better over the last 24 hours; footballers are seldom accused of over-intellectualising their plans. Late interest from La Liga looked to have dealt Celtic a body-blow, but he’s ours now, and I’m pleased we got someone who was wanted by Spanish scouts.
That’s us finished for the summer window. Welcome to Celtic, John, Stefan.

A free agent for left back perhaps. ?
Read earlier that we had negotiated Scepovic deal down by £2k per week from teh deal offered last night.
It may be true but I would doubt it.
This would not be a good foundation for the basis of our new signings 4 year contract.
He has come to us after his other options fell through.
We surely want him to quickly realise that this is the luckiest thing that ever happened to him.
If he comes bearing a grudge that we have exploited his predicament and ‘screwed’ him out of £100k per year he will hardly be motivated to give us 100%.
Therefore I would be concerned if that story were true…. and hope that it is not

He’s an idiot.
Love the way he keeps checking his phone as if he’s getting exclusive texts from all his exclusive contacts of exclusive news on the transfer window which has just slammed shut except that , err , it hasn’t really as it seems clubs can get an extension…
Have we signed Finboggasson yet?

Ha ha clearly you’ve not met those I work with :-)
Nothing on Celtic or Man. City official sites about Guidetti.
How do we know that he has signed?

Think it’s me on the sauce, forgot Lustig too, and Toenail if he’s not crocked.
Like a different team.

Mail on its way
Night all
Kris dropping 4k a week to sign on for 2 more years til 2017 seemingly.
2 strikers in and VVD stays. Now if those strikers turn out to be able to score in Europe, I’ll be very happy
The onlooker,
Regardless. He’s increased his wages and will hopefully give us 100%

Someone on the site said last night that you don’t really need to know much about a striker except his scoring ratio.
========================
Kris ‘Boydy’ Boyd of NaeFuture FC has a better ratio than the KOK.
Someone was way, way wrong.

Don’t encourage him, he’ll only drag you up to his height. Lol

Almost home mhate.
At Stirling. 2 stops to go then a wee 10min stroll up the hill. Basically retracing the steps of 24 hours ago!
Then cot time as an esteemed palomine would say!
HH jamesgang
Great news on the transfer front.
Could not have asked for more.
Referendum betting…
The last of the 4/1 against a YES vote has disappeared like snow off a dyke.
The 7/2 is all but gone.
The penny is finally dropping.
personally I think Jim White is superb..he makes deadline day a fantastic spectacle….good to see a fellow scot doing well.
OmaCelt
Thank you for reminding me I forgot to add VVD,
BONUS:)))
Surely a free agent left back will come in now as a wee cherry on the cake to give Izzy a break.
Good night all
May only good things come your way.
WOW again …… VVD gets his international call-up
Was out in Berlin tonight, just saw a message from Celtic Live about an hour ago about Scepovic.
Then logged into CQN to see Guidetti as well! Good business getting rid of Pukki, Balde and McGeough from the wage bill.
Mon the Hoops!
