Israeli recruiting anchor

965

Anchoring to a distant geographical base is not intuitively how you would expect a football club to recruit but Celtic are clearly working their contacts in Israel these days.  Beram Kayal has worked out well in the two and a half years since joining from Maccabi Haifa, as has Nigeria international, Efe Ambrose, who joined from Israeli club Ashdod in the summer.

Neil Lennon recently mentioned he needed cover for left back (despite right-footed Adam Matthews performing heroics there against Barcelona), so it is no surprise that Israel international Rami Gershon is in town today.  Gershon has played less than a dozen games for Standard Liege since leaving Israel three years ago, although he was a regular pick for loan club Kortrijk.  Should he sign he will be a low-risk addition to the squad but he has almost certainly received commendation from the same sources who recommended Kayal and Ambrose.

Best of luck to Rabiu Ibrahim, who left for Kilmarnock after promising much but delivering little as a prodigy at Sporting and PSV Eindhoven.  He was the low-risk addition of last January.  You’ve got to kiss a lot of frogs……

  1. Cheers CRC, obviously if the weans didn’t climb all over me for the first round and I didn’t had to get them to bed then I could of been a contender.

     

     

    Congrats SFTB, I think I was starting to sound like Paw Broon there.

    £20.00 right enough for a photo with Henrik

    Apart from the old ‘creaks and groans’ in the joints (old footy injuries) – not too bad.

     

     

    Thanks to the NHS – getting more check-ups that someone with an ankle-tag! :-)

     

     

    H!H!

    Henrik’s last game at CP against Dundee Utd

     

    was one of the most emotional i have ever attended.

     

    A true bond between player and supporters.

    Nothing advertised on facebook/twitter or the website re charity. When I booked my tickets, I was told it was being run by a boxing promoter, who had contracted Henke for 2 nights appearances. Originally, one was meant to be in Donegal and the week after.

     

     

    Nothing to do with Celtic

     

     

    RE charity: I will tell you tomorrow after I visit to see the “magnificent one” and get my alleged £20 photo :0 )

     

     

    Celtic run many of these nights also for profit Not for charity. I have been to a few over the years.

    That beats HT’s BAR 67 hands down mate.

  10. The Audacity of the other side never ceases to amaze me .

     

    They are forming a committee in light of sing the billy boys at hampden (with no action taken against them ) to speak to RFC and SFA about bringing the song back, challenging legal objections or finding acceptable lines …

     

     

    Wow

  11. £20 a photo seems a bit tawdry,a bit surprised if Henrik making money out of that one.If you have met him,he is the shyest superstar of all time.

    I was told there are 100 tables of ten – each paying £100 ( not including photo opportunity ) – this is for two nights – I’ll let you do the maths

    Is peter latchford in Glasgow now. Anyone know. Dead ringer in Ikea braehead today. But I was too scared to ask.

  16. Bhoys- Jonas Olsson at WBA??? Bidding looks around 3 mill mark…not CL cup tied (tho dunno if any additions would be too late)…experienced….IMHO would fit the bill for a solid CH

    The venue is where Celtic hold the PoY awards and I am sure there are normally around 85 tables of 10 on that night, so you might not be far off the mark.

     

     

    There is a 3 course meal and evening entertainment (dont know what!) for £100.

     

     

    There is also an auction on the night as well.
