It’s been 53 days since Celtic finished their season by scoring several outstanding goals in a 6-0 drubbing of Motherwell. This afternoon, they’re back! Gone are the days on here when an indifferent performance in preseason games brought uncontained anxiety from those convinced Celtic were on the road to destruction. Now we all know they are about carefully preparing hamstrings for the months to come; right?
Wiener Viktoria play in the Austrian regional leagues that feed into the national second tier. Think of Arbroath, before all the glory.
Celtic sold to Southampton in 2013, 2014, 2015 and again in 2018. The first three transactions were for players mid-contract: Victor Wanyama earned £13m, Fraser Forster brought in £12m and Virgil van Dijk, £14m.
Stuart Armstrong left four years ago with one year left on his contract, having been a peripheral player for Celtic the previous season. He completed 90 minutes on only 10 league games, starting 15 in total. Still, we got £7m for him.
With one year left on his contract, Joe Aribo is reportedly leaving Newco for the same destination for £6m, plus add-ons. He was their best player last season, so good news if he does depart. The fee sounds like they had the same guy negotiating that agreed their Sydney Cup deal. Bless.

That’s for a rehab specialist. So a quicker return from injury, hopefully.

“I normally agree 100% with what you wrote on here.
The Australians moving the goal posts and moving them again for political expediency does not equate to Novak cheating imo.
Rafa Nadal the media and establishment darling by playing every trick in the book to slow his opponents down is a cheat.”
Thanks, Bud,
As I said in my original post I wasn’t too sure what the details were, now that you mention it, I do recall the Aussies moving sideways on various issues regarding him playing, thanks again, por cierto
53 days ?
7½ weeks.
In terms of the total rest I THINK players need? Sounds about right.
Two concerns.
1. Lots of our squad continued to play and train after Motherwell. Hope they is rested.
2. Genuine question – do young footballers actually know how to rest properly?
They work in an intense environment and have lots of dough.
Stand down could trigger restlessness.
Hope this rest is being managed and monitored.
I’m old enough to remember Irish front row Keith Wood’s response to a season ending injury.
“Sin while you can !”
Could you explain that one again, Boss?

No joking .there BW
The level of knowledge learned and gained in sports sciences all adds to gaining an advantage to the insuividual and the team in general.
A friends son is now in the US making fortunes in NBA,a doctorate in a particular muscle grouping,shoulder and arm.all used to benefit the player.as you imply the magic sponge is long gone

Celtic odds for Tonights game…
Yesterday I looked at my Online Bookie Odds ( BET365) for Celtic to win tonight…
The ODDS were 2/9 ON.
Those odds were/are no use to me………
However, I have just looked again at the Odds a few minutes ago, and Celtic are now 1/66 ON ?
Have many punters lumped on heaps of cash on Celtic since yesterday…I doubt it ?
LOL

One of my favourite artists. Cheers! Celtic link is oh so cool.
A reminder, if needed, that exactly a year ago, Albian Ajeti captained a Celtic side with a team that comprised a midfield of Shaw, McInroy and Soro.
Barkas in goal…
Enjoy the progress comrades.

If MG goes then BoJo is toast.
Happening quicker than I expected.
The cabinet film told us everything 8 hours ahead of time.
Will go down in folklore as history in the raw.
On the TV just now — he knows that it is over.
I would make sure that he is wearing slip on shoes.
Almost the middle of July and still no signings
As usual we will be totally unprepared for our Euro qualifyers and will probably be dumped put by a Macedonia minnow with a 5th of our budget.
How much longer is Lawwell going to be allowed hoodwink the fans.
That well known darts player from Barra — AMcN aka 3 in a bed — making a right twit of himself.
Weak questions / poor delivery / cheeky chappy persona — out-clowned even BoJo — incredible.
Condolences to Sipsini may your father rest in peace
Sipsini, sorry for your loss

Rafa drops the first set but still lines up his drinking bottles perfectly at the break.
Best wishes Sipsini, may your Dad Rest In Peace
If Nadal is taking too much time there are a few things they can do to stop it.
See NFL,NBA,and Golf for just a few.Cheats get caught.
Novax took them to court a few of his fans said “they don’t know who they are dealing with”Arrogant is being polite.
