You and I have been doing this long enough to remember this place in meltdown at the prospect of Celtic signing a player from another SPL club. Domestically sourced talent was regarded as unimaginative, cheap, even. Contrast this with the utter joy when we signed Koki Mizuno, who was full-on exotic, but built for finer things then competitive football.
At 29, Aberdeen’s Irish international midfielder, Jonny Hayes is certainly unimaginative, and may be comparatively cheap, but he’s also a low-risk option for Celtic, who will know what they could get (and what they will not get) from the player.
With Patrick Roberts due to report to Manchester City on his return from holiday, Celtic are short of options for right-mid, with the first Champions League qualifier only five weeks away. The manager will view this gap in his squad as an unnecessary risk to next season’s objectives.

I dont get involved in the serious issues on here,
but i am amazed at people thinking the solution to the violence is to allow us all to carry weapons

Ernie is the bravest commentator on here now.
He just says it as it is.
He detatched himself – Wise.
The fact he is an Ornotholigist disnae cloud my thinking.
INVINCIBLE ‘GG @ 10:33 PM,
What an excellent, insightful post.
It strikes at the ignorance that is flung about regarding Muslims in much of the MSM & Social Media.
Of course Wahhabis prefer to be known as Salafis.
It is a very modern version of Islam, less than 300 years old – Yet seems medieval as it seeks it’s roots in a much older, intolerant version of Islam.
When you look at the various adherents and teachings of Islam from the North West Coast of Africa to the Indonesian Islands the most dogmatic and reactionary version of Islam is the Salafi.
Over 200 years ago in the Arabian Gulf this most virulent strain of Islam, rekindled on the Arabian Peninsula.
As you say, the are hugely wealthy patrons of their beliefs – Osama Bin Laden was financed in terms of Multi- Billions on the premise he would open Salafi Mosques and gain converts around the Muslim World.
Of course the Ironic thing is the Salifis are the Muslims who the West are most “friendly” with and does far and away the most trade with. Selling many, many Billions in Arms and Security services… The RAF, SBS and SAS “Consultancy” services are sold mainly to Salifis.
You can even have a nice Holiday in Dubai, UAE, or take in a Fitbaw Tournament in Qatar. They may tolerate us but don’t for one moment believe that the level of contempt that they hold the decadent Western Infedels.

Gordon – I am crying for no reason so many times now.
I know I know nothing, and that is important to me right now.
Aidan wants to go to more away games.
He is mental hardcore about Celtic. His team lost 7-0 but he was the best player on the park.
Theresa needs to shut the stable door.
Now that the horse has bolted.

The hip pocket nerve always works.
Should have been tweaked after 9/11.
macjay1,
I like Theresa, I like her tone.
I also like Jeremy.
I will vote on Thursday.
Still not decided….. If I could ascertain who was voting what in west D… things would be easier.
Most Likely a vote for Labour from petec.
Petec,
you certainly seem to be having a hard time of it lately,
and i have thought at times that a break from the blog might do you good,
but you are certainly among friends on here and the support given to many with problems is fantastic
Corbyn in
Good night friends
gordybhoy64,
I think you misunderstand.
I’ve never had it easier.
I need to stay now – more than ever.
Trump went to the 3 Monotheistic Centres.
That is crazy magoooo Rudi Vata.
PETEC on 4TH JUNE 2017 11:43 PM
Hi , Pete.
It wont surprise you to know who I would be voting for. :-) ,
but I would never wish to influence the way you vote.
Crucial time for UK in so many different ways.
Whoever is successful will have my full support and best wishes.
They`ll need it.
It pains this expat to see the current traumas being played out in U.K.
Thank God we have our Celtic to take our minds off the tragedies .
If we sign Roberts i’ll never ask God for anything ever again.
TTR
Yes.
Almost whatever he costs.

Paddy could be the next Jinky.
I think Pep will be kind and, despite being good enough for Man City, Pep will encourage Paddy to take ownership of the INREDIBLE CELTIC number 7.
See yon Saudi Arabia, shoorly they’d save a fortune making their own murderous weapons and not rely on attending wee finger buffets in London tae spend vast amounts on weapons.
We deal in death. UK govt in your name. Sponsored by the bankers.
So how can these atrocities happen?
Simple, look closer to home.
INCREDIBLE even. oops.
Petec
I read this earlier.
Only two types of people will vote Tory.
Millionaires and the misguided.
Which one are you?
Check your wallet.
Anyway Boris Nutall is back so I’m aff oot while he pollutes.

Moonbeamswd,
I don’t like the SNP.
They flip from left to right and from right to left.
Anything to get their only objective.
I am likely to vote Labour btw.

Wow, that is huge for Celtic. If someone had predicted that after Shaktar Karagandy away, they would have been carted off to the Asylum.
Outstanding CELTIC Business.

Aye he does actually earn his crust.
