This time next week Celtic will have played two competitive games, both at home, and we will have a chance to properly assess preseason preparations. Even if victories are achieved against HJK Helsinki and Aberdeen the challenges for the remainder of the month, with at least four and possibly five games away from Celtic Park, with the possibility of only one home game, in the final Champions League qualifying round, will ensure Celtic are tested to their limit.
Two trips to the Highlands ahead of the Champions League qualifiers would be an unwelcome distraction. Maybe an occasion for the youth and fringe players.
Let me know if you want to advertise in the forthcoming issue of CQN Magazine, celticquicknews@gmail.com.

It’s good to laugh mi Amigo for tomorrow the fight goes on…
Anyone would think that cee-lo wants to p1ss off everyone in order to scupper sevco’s chances of a permenant sfa ticket. Swally bolloxed it today by getting through to the next round of the pawn cup.
Follow the bees & huuuuney!
The last guy that unexpectedly captained Celtic signed a new deal a few days later.

Aye Peter has done well with a few of the buy cheap sell dear players, just don’t think even he has the baws to sell them all at once
Kojo….
Palomine….Remember that you’ve already sold Izzy a while back….
The Bash Street Kid is also superfluous
Bring oan The New Fair-Heided Boys…
Alyss says….And Alyss is always right
Right ? Right !
Never ceases to amaze me the number of Celtic fans that fall for MSM propaganda regarding all our better players, who are leaving but never do, you really would think they’d know better by now?
As for Tamas Kadar, his playing record is worse than Mensah’s and is probably another thing that will never happen.
To go in to a CL qualifier with the same squad as last season,shows a distinct lack of ambition IMO,Helsinki or otherwise.
I would hate to lose Big Vic. I would love him to stay at CP for a couple of seasons yet.

Who gets Jaroslaw Fojuts salary?
If we want to be positive then we have a young team with one more year’s experience.I am also disappointed, that we have not strengthened. Good to see that we have secured a keeper though!
I do think we take too many risks, given the CL purse that awaits us (or not!)

He is an outstanding young footballer Kojo,as are both Ki and Kayal.
We can’t sell them all mate.
Don’t get me wrong,it’s money in the bank if we do punt them…but we wouldn’t win anything.
It’s all about trying to balance the finances with the product on the pitch.
If we can keep the squad in tact this season,and qualify for the CL Group Stages,that would be ideal.
You are generating between £15-20million there,which will allow the club to re-invest in new talent for next season.
Should the said players perform in Europe,the serious bids will follow.
And if we qualify for this tournament,then we dominate Scottish football for years to come.
Success breeds success,the better we do in Europe,the more we boost the co-efficient,meaning that in future we only need to win the league,to ensure automatic qualification every season.
It will be boring though? Will it eff! Nobody said it was boring when the hun cheated to 9-in-a-row.Also all the other teams are now playing for second place,instead of third place – and that also brings with it the chance of CL football.

Unfortunately due to the present structure of football we will be a selling club.
I think the club understand this and have planned well for the present circumstances with our scouting and youth development.
If we are going. to sell I hope its Ki and not Vic.
Will probably depend on whether we qualify for champions league or not.
Still think we need a central defender with experience and another attacker.
It’s one you have to read through a couple of times but it makes the interesting points for those down Govan way who think they are going to do as they please with the name and stuff…collars felt soon please and stop this charade..

I think Celtic will keep all our best players – they always do.
Right now, it’s all MSM talk, last year it was Izzaguire and Kayal this year
it’s Wanyama and Ki.
Plus ca change

I agree with your opinion 100%, we should have had plan B in place when the Fojut deal fell through.
As for a striker, well that is a tad harder to get for PL’s spend, or lack off as the case may be.
Badges, I thought they were sold out, if not put me down for what is on offer.

Hiya. Palomine.

Sure, Ah’d sell Izzy,in Two Shakes of collie’s Tail.. tae. but.. it looks like the Ither Manager’s hiv Tumbled tae Him.

Maist of oor Trouble , when it comes tae Losing.. Silly Goals.. always, seems tae Involve oor LEFT BACK..
Noo. Izzy. or Charley.. or . Young Filip. all of them are No whit Ah wid call. Sterling Tacklers.. They are very suspect. but.. Their, ATTACKING QUALITIES. are SECOND TAE NAIN!
Ah jist luv Darling Charlie.. when he Dashes doon the line.. and Izzy as weel.. and Filip , tae..
They, kin pit over some nice . Profitable Ba’s.. which is a Big Plus.
Getting Back, tae Izzy.. He is Not . in Ma opinion..
a GOOD , SOLID , DEFENDER.. and oor Rivals take Advantage of that fact..
Watch. the Next game.. If Izzy, or Charlie or Filip. are Playing LEFT BACK. . ye wull see that Maist of oor Opponent’s Attackin’ Sorties. wull . tak place..

I bought one the other week. £150 a slab.
I think they’re waiting to see how many they can sell before deciding the layout of them. They have the club crest and you get 3 lines to write whatever you want on it.

Have SEVCO signed Black because he showed at Hearts the same qualities he will have to show whilst playing for SEVCO.
Namely the ability to play games whilst his wages aren’t getting paid?

Day 2 of the Olympics almost over and still managed to avoid it,..whew…only 14 days to go.
TET-We could still get rid of another 3 or 4 and finance the CB and striker we need.
Awe Naw- Not surprised by the ultra cautious approach,but we are reactive instead of proactive.The attendances at last 2 friendlies should be a warning to PL et al if we dont get EL at least.

From the Daily Mail:
Brechin 1 Rangers 2: Late McCulloch strike earns McCoist’s men historic first win.
Lee McCulloch grabbed an extra-time winner as Rangers were forced to battle for an historic victory against Brechin in the Ramsdens Cup.
The match was their first competitive outing since the club was consigned to liquidation over the summer and voted into the Irn-Bru Third Division.

We have shifted 8 salaries but still I reckon we will not buy unless we qualify for the CL proper we still have too many players when you,see guys like Murphy and,Rasmussen still drawing a wage. Still a big cleanup to do and we need to sort out our CB position. We recently moved on hooijveld?? We have had a conveyor belt of poor centre backs since MON left.
Big Mick and Cauldbauer reputation enhances with every passing season. ;-)
