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……

Pardew on a 8 year contract.

——————————-
I think you’ll find Pardew’s laughing the loudest over that eight-year contract…

All the churnalists and daily rags are singing from the same hun sheet. They will continue do do this, we will never change it, they are re-writing history, white washing out the bad parts like what happened in Manchester and Barcelona. The piece on Hugh Adams this morning was disgusting, getting their wee say and opinions in on the back of the passing of a real rangers man. Despicable.

Like many on CQN, I have a low opinion of Scottish journalism. Today’s publication in The Herald of an obituary of Hugh Adam plumbs new depths. I know the author is a ‘historian’ of the late RFC rather than a journalist, but the responsibility for this disgrace lies with the paper’s editor. The least he can do is contact Mr Adam’s family and offer an unqualified apology coupled with a published retraction.
Sorry, Hugh Adams not Adam.
See Shortbread fawning all over Longmuir at the moment. Seems like he is now “the man” to lead Scottish football now. Bbc looking desperately for reconstruction, effective next season. Time for Celtic to speak out loud and clear against this noNsence which will kill Scottish football if it goes ahead simply to fasttrack them back faster than they should. Nauseating!
I work for the same parent company as The Herald,and have just posted a comment about the obituary.
It will be interesting to see if it passes moderation. And if I get a bollocking when I go back to work
As an example of journalism,it is shocking.
As an example of humanity,it is appalling.
The Laptop Loyal can attempt revisionism as much as they want to but they will never be able to alter the document at Companies House which verifies the truth.

The huns should be fast-tracked all right.
To oblivion!
I’m happy to leave that to Charlie.but any assistance will be appreciated….
Re the McGowan transfer.
I am bemused as to why he will be a free agent at the end of his trip
My inference from the various sound bites is that rather than the Chinese club paying a transfer fee for his registration, then the player has bought out his own contract , thus he is a free agent at the end of his wee trip ?
Any insights ?
Roon ye and up ye, Pardew, and choke on it.
