Ivorian link at work again, this time in Athens

774

With three deals done, the pace of transfer activity at Celtic appears to be approaching relentless.  The Ivorian link will have been at work again, as news that we are interested in Olympiakos full back, Omar Elabdellaoui, testifies.  Celtic coach, Kolo Toure’s brother Yaya, spent half a season at the Greek club before leaving last month.

Signing players is always a risk, so getting a first-hand insight into how a player performs from someone who has worked with him daily for the last six months is a huge advantage.  Bear in mind, Elabdellaoui is just one of the right backs Celtic are considering.  This one could run a while.

Reports from the US that we have agreed a deal to sign 22-year-old left back Andrew Gutman are amusing, mostly as he was being trailed as a signing elsewhere in the city.  Great to see that as well as using our Ivorian links, we have plenty of connections at Scotland’s smaller clubs.  If he arrives, hopefully Callum McGregor will not see more action in that position.

  1. The Celts will be raring to go when they get back.

     

     

    Lets get the 8.

     

     

    The most influential songs that the players respond to should be found out – for that extra 1 or 2 %.

     

     

    Rally rally round the Flag Bhoys.

  2. Callum has a song for him that isnae frae Compton. It is a sonic that is growing more and more.

     

     

    I know not why, but it’s in my head. I will all of a sudden just let rip with the Callum song!

     

     

    Ryan Christie is top quality, Callum went before him. Notts County Legend for sure.

     

     

    1 step back to go forward.

     

     

    Just cannae get enough Scots and Irish Lads in the Celtic team. They will give it everything.

  3. Garry,

     

     

    Well done Abdul and his (and your) Support of the foxes. We had a fox in work that was 3 legged a few years ago now but it just did what it had to do to get by. I saw it so many times on nightshift – not seen it since coming back from Rosyth.

    I heard an interview wi Charlie Christie a coupla years ago. He said that his biggest regret was not making it at Celtic. He was a bhoy fae Inverness overwhelmed by Celtic and Glasgow. He said he is influencing Ryan to learn from his dad’s mistakes at Celtic. Magical

  6. Garry,

     

     

    Ryan is a MEGA player. He is just starting his Celtic career as well. Everyone can see it, now.

     

     

    I hope his Mum and Dad are over the Moon about their Bhoy and likewise any siblings.

     

     

    10 in a row is a millstone.

     

     

    Celtic have to just take one day at a Time.

    Indeed I am, and you too sir. This winter break is murder – can’t wait to get back to putting the zombies back in their box (aye, the wooden one) ?

     

    Oh! It’s only evening here.

  10. Guttenberg- thanks for reply, i get the impression, some might know better, the Remuneration Committee is like a wee cabal, where they all vote yes to their bonuses and probably more. HH
