Long term more important with Guidetti

415

The most important news concerning John Guidetti is no longer whether Fifa recognise his registration, it’s whether John is keen to remain in Glasgow beyond May next year.

The player is not eligible for the Europa League group stage, and it is not critically important he joins for Premiership football in the first half of the season.  He can join in January for the league run-in, and hopefully the latter part of the Europa League, but as we know, the next major event on Celtic’s horizon is next season’s Champions League qualifiers, which then out-of-contract Guidetti would be a valuable addition for.

Whatever the Fifa outcome, the player will be planning where he wants to play beyond this season and it’s unlikely Scotland will have previously featured heavily in his mind.  Monday was a bit of a shambles for the player but he got to see how Celtic operate.  Hopefully the positive sentiment will convince him this is a platform he can build his career on.

It’s just incredible that Mike Ashley had Charles Green in such a place that he was able to secure naming rights of The Stadium Formerly Referred to as Ibrox for £1.  Whether he exercises this right or not is moot.  The fact that he can, means that Newco Rangers have to accommodate him in the knowledge he is able to call in his marker at any time.

The only curious thing, is why was this particular piece of dirty washing hung out at this time?

    Naw, but the guy doon the stair from me got a visit from the cops on that one, he did look like him mind yi.

  2. I went to see The Sweet at the Flam just before they became famous .They were actually quite a hard rock band then circa 1971. Anyway the GT were as per out in force. After the first song one of the GT made some derogatory remarks to the band.The boy who played the bass said ok come a ******** head. Cue the whole crowd bursting out laughing.

    ‘Cause she thinks she’s the passionate one

     

     

     

    Oh, yeah, it was like lightning, everybody was frightening

     

    And the music was soothing, and they all started grooving

     

     

     

    Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

     

    And the man at the back said

    And the girl in the corner said

     

    Boy, I wanna warn ya, it’ll turn into a ballroom blitz

    Same car broke down outside the Fire Station at Candleriggs(?) in the middle of the night.

     

     

    Within 5 minute there was a crowd of firemen under the bonnet fixing the bloody thing for me.

     

     

    Those were the days……..my friend!

    WOOFT, that was a blast from the past, I remember that song too, and I did like the equals, chick did have a nice pair of gams.

  14. Catman, given the circumstance will UEFA allow him the same dispensation to play in the Europa League,or is Paul67 correct, domestic competition only?

     

     

    Good news either way, thanks.

    Now you’re talking. I remember some great bands there. The Wombles in ’75 left indelible memories…

  19. praecepta

     

     

    His name might be Simon but thats no a Simon shirt he has on. It might that particular Simon’s shirt but its no like the Simon shirt I had. I’am blethering so I’ll shut up.

  20. Doc

     

     

    I take it that it will be domestic only as we are past the European deadline but do not have confirmation of that

  21. catman, Hope you are right,

     

    Philbhoy I like your post. There were plenty more other than yourself making similar remarks, hope they all follow your lead. Of course everything is dependent , on catman being right.

    Catman,

     

     

    Hope your source is right.

     

    The ole currants will be having a right good rage – Peter Lawwell, controller of Celtic, SPFL, SFA and UEFA has now added FIFA to his unseen fenian hand empire.

     

     

    Tee hee….

    Is this the pre-season training started for your next hospital appointment? That’s what my ol’ ma tries.

     

     

    Hope you fool them.

    Can I be the first to start the next conspiracy?

     

     

    The John Guidetti and Kris Commons contract extension money are obviously one and the same….

  27. Catman, thanks, just grasping at a straw, hoped UEFA may look at it sympathetically as an error on the parent clubs side caused the delay.

     

    I’ve read Paul’s article but would rather see both players available in all competitions.
