Jaroslaw Fojut spoke to a Polish newspaper yesterday on his decision to join Celtic. Our man in Poland kindly transcribed:
When asked if he would like to move to Celtic this month, Jaroslaw said, “If I move to Celtic this winter a convenient outcome for all sides would need to happen. If I need to stay in Wroclaw until the end of the season it will not be a tragedy. My decision to sign for Celtic is not going to change my dedication to Slask.
“Whatever the outcome, I will not be aggrieved.
“The people at Slask offered me a good contract. Before I signed for Celtic I met Slask chairman, Piotr Wasniewski and explained my situation. I wanted to play fair with the club who were always fair with me.
“Money was not the main reason I decided to go to Scotland. I do not have to justify myself by telling you what kind of club Celtic is and the real reasons behind my decision.
“My agent told me about signals from other club but there were no concrete offers. Celtic were determined to sign me and when their offer came in I did not look for other options.
“I expect competition for a place in the Celtic team to be high but when I get a chance to play I will make good use of that privilege. I have not spoken to Neil Lennon yet but I am aware of what he has said about me and look forward to meeting him.
“I remember playing against him when he was with Nottingham. I think we played twice in the cup and once in the league but could not be sure.
“I planned to call Lukasz Zaluska and ask what it was like at Celtic but what if he told me things were bad there?” Which Jaroslaw laughed at.
“Lukasz and I will have lots to talk about, we are both Legia supporters.
“I’m not going to argue about whether the Scottish or Polish league is better, everyone is entitled to their opinion on this. I’m pretty sure we have no club in Poland who can compare to Celtic, whatever aspect you analyse, economic issues, organisation, supporters, stadium or anything.
“Let’s not forget Celtic play in Europe every year and battle for the biggest prizes.
“In a way going to Celtic is a dream come true but my dreams will have to change. I will not going the Bhoys and feel happy, my ambitions will have to move on. I am sure Lionel Messi still has something to win and achieve. He has never been the champion of the world and that is why he must improve. I’m pretty sure I will not be short of incentives.
“Celtic is a very big deal for me but you do not climb the mountain and say, OK, I’m done.
“My acclimatisation is going to me easier in many aspects. I know the British game, I know what the coaches expectations are. During my years in England I learned the language so I’ll not have problems with communication.”

Been saying that for years – the “customers” can gtf, only Celtic Supporters should go to the games!

hear hear
Estadio nacional
Moneyball was published befor cqn even existed, I think the fat b (or c or whatever expletive you use to describe him) would probably have been aware of it before it was discussed on here.
It’s actually considered to be a little outdated by some working in the game

Re meet the manager I thought Neil was very articulate, relaxed , very focussed informative and humorous tonight also…I wonder why that isn’t how the old meeja portray him….hmmmmmmm

I told you about strawberry fields, You know the place where nothing is real Well here’s another place you can go Where everthing flows. Looking through the bent backed tulips To see how the other half lives Looking through a glass onion.
I told you about the walrus and me-man You know that we’re as close as can be-man. Well here’s another clue for you all, The walrus was Paul. Standing on the cast iron shore-yeah, Lady Madonna trying to make ends meet-yeah. Looking through a glass onion. Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah. Looking through a glass onion.
I told you about the fool on the hill, I tell you man he living there still. Well here’s another place you can be, Listen to me.
Fixing a hole in the ocean Trying to make a dove-tail joint-yeah Looking through a glass onion

Neil, if he listened to the Press, would have dumped half his team by now. He has backed all his players by his actions and it is excellent to hear Neil coming out strongly in support of Mo. Very good news IMO.
Did Neil mention whether Frank McGarvey would be fit for Saturday?!

Evening All,
From the beeb….
Celtic want Newcastle United goalkeeper Fraser Forster in permanent deal.
Best news of the day.
The most important position on the field.
johann murdoch
I actually dictated to my private secretary.
no lazy journalism on CQN…Celtic news, quickly!!
Very glad to see Lenny hasn’t given up on bangura.
Vmhan
I’ll be sending out an email to all the Bhoys on Monday.
A wee reminder on how and were to make payment.
We agreed on Ardgowan Hospice in memory of TTTT’s dad.
MWD
Evening, glad I came in for a quick look and caught the posts regarding Neil Lennon tonight. He is class.
I stated the other night, it was a disgrace that Bangura had been deemed a dud by some on here, when the boy has been very unlucky with injury that has prevented a decent run in the team.
Watched Craig Whyte at the movies that was posted, absolutely hilarious.
HH
And delighted to meet at last fellow poster lennybhoy at tonight’s gathering….Neil also knows who he is now ! :) hh mate
HT
Fit for whit?
Ok thanks MWD, thats a great idea….
Vinny
HH to ye!
BT
Or George McCluskey would do…
Not the bus .ah I knew it but didn’t see her in the back of the limo?..still those darkened windaes conceal so much..was rod in there too?
It has been confirmed that it will now be a random search at the game on Saturday. A bit of common sense or the threat of a bhoycott?
HH
TET,
Not a mechanic but working in motor trade (workshop) for twenty five years whats the question and i’ll try and get answers for you .
BT
Sorry, bored so decided to post piddle.

When do you need to know for definite?

I have a 2001 530D BMW auto, when going up a hill it’s not kicking down quick enough hence I am losing speed.
I think it could be a couple of things.
Could be the fuel pump needs adjusted which I would need to take to a mechanic.
Or the gearbox oil could need changing which I could do myself.
Or it could be something else altogether.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
HH
Good luck to Massimo on your new club -Palermo
Maybe the Scottish press will realise you werent a complete dud!.

‘I think the fat b (or c or whatever expletive you use to describe him)’
Are you guessing what I call someone that I refered to by name in my post? Thats outrageous and a bit no right. Are you hearing voices in your head?
I know the book was out before CQN, Im not sure he was aware of it before the CQN discussion.
TET ,
kick down harder
HT , no immediate rush. probably end of Feb with money coming in soon after -we have to pay Celtic up front for our confirmed numbers so important to get the numbers and money right otherwise it’s not a fundraiser !!
Vmhan , searched for BRTH in FB , trying twitter now. not going back on the blog – do you know how many menchys he gets ?
