News that a striker reneged on a verbal commitment to join the club 24 hours before deadline day should surprise no one. Think back to that line from Jerry Maguire, when Jerry’s girlfriend hears he had secured a representative deal on a handshake, not an actual contract. The agent’s reminder of Lesson One in business was sharp.
Last minute change of plans happen, but only when you’re doing last minute business. We are now 10 hours away from the deadline and in desperate need for what we’ve been in desperate need…. to replace the long departed Gary Hooper. It would be wrong to think that Scepovic was the only striker we were pursuing, so we’re not starting from scratch, but he was first choice.
The ball is still in play, not panicking yet.

Emus
Great news fella
Re-signing Kris Commons is like signing a new player, but I’d be happy enough with the one we had last season. So much good news pouring out of Celtic after a long day, think I will have a dram to celebrate cos the SMSM ain’t gonna be enjoying this.

…but don’t tell hateley, FGS…..
Some interesting names in that unattached list.
Titus Brambe could partner Efe in central defence.
We could sign Julius Agohowa and him and Efe could have a half time Acrobatic show.
We could sign Nicholas Anelka to replace Teemu Pukki’s sulks.
We could sign Derek Riordan to keep Leigh Griffiths out of trouble.
And we could sign the wonderfully named Hogan Ephraim as he sounds like Israeli-Irish and that covers a lot of our team bonding demographics.

Indeed…..meeja will be fuming, like true little bhuns…..bless their wee cotton soaks
UlsterCelt I think she can still register for a postal or proxy vote. If you know what her postcode will be you can get hold of the Returning Officer first thing tomorrow, they’ll guide you
6 signings…good window, Celtic…..HH
“And how come the odds remain the same?”

Naw they huvnae ….are you a hurtin’ weezombie fied …..%#^# …hahahahahahaha
Why has Peter Lawwell only signed SIX players? What does he do all day count his bonus?
Is that the knitting bee happy noo
Ahm no kidding this site is becoming more like the Peoples Friend and the Readers Digest of cybertimdom every day
If ye believe that Scepovic came back with cap in hand to Celtic yer delusional auld fools
Wonder what sort of increase Peter Lawell offered him to save face
And as for Guidetti a 22 year old that has been out on loan at 4 different clubs since arriving at man City 6 years ago,to me someone who is obviously happy to sit back and pick up the wages while ignoring the obvious
I have been critical of PL however he has managed to remove some deadwood & hopefully 2 strikers in the door. Up to Ronnie to know what to do with them, can’t keep thinking (like Charlie Nic!) if both these were signed well in advance for CL qualification a loss of £20m now!!!
C’mon Celtic FC.. C’mon Celtic Supporters!! we can still have a great season.. stop listening to the doubters and stop believing the rags.. KTF… Hail Hail.. This is our Club.. lets get behind it and prove we are Celtic faithful.
Stefan Scepovic great ring to that name and for gods sake don’t get crocked in your first week training session at Lennox town.
Re the unattached list. The one that caught my eye was John Collins. Emdy know what that fella’s up to these days?
Looks as though Guidetti was backup ?
Did Ronny promote Jim McGuinness yet?

Dallas
Was that game v Hibs that my hero Danny scored, a couple of weeks before the 10 men 4-2 game?
I see Beccio went from Norwich to Rotherham on loan, doesn’t seem to have settled at Norwich a goal machine at Leeds!
Guidetti scored 20 in 23 appearances for Feyenoord 2011-12,
Finboggason 2012-13 28 in 35 appearances.
Looks like Guidetti could do a job if he finds the right home.
Dallas
Cheers mate, 3-1 it was, Dumbarton game was 7 or 8 nil and Danny scored a beauty. I’m sure I seen him score another one but cant remember who against. Think he probably scored four or five in all, but what a player. Wish to God we had him now.
So, what button do you press to
join the Izzy clique?

So, let me get this right, Celtic supporters having paid their admission money and are then treated to a shabby performance but, the players have not to be booed!
So, what do the fans do with all their frustration?

Based on the moral perfectitude demanded of polititians on here; Jim McG may not pass the squeeky clean test. But who does? Boys will be boys
