I heard two bits of good news today. First, and most importantly, season ticket sales have been fantastic. We’re well on track to reach target. We don’t know what next season will bring from several revenue streams, most importantly what European football will deliver, but knowing the income arriving from season tickets allows the club to make early decisions.
Specifically, a couple of hours ago we agreed terms (with player and club) for the outright purchase of a player, currently registered with an English Premier League club. He flies north tonight and will sign subject to a medical, booked for tomorrow. I understand the coaching staff are delighted at the capture as he’s been our number one priority for some time.
Tip for the day: don’t ask ‘sources close to the club’ what the consequences of today’s result at Fir Park are for us, unless you want a lecture about how:
We’re on our own……
We know we’re on our own……
We’ll stand or fall on our own merits……
We don’t need money from two derby games that we could almost match from a good run in the cups……
We need to build a successful Celtic team……
We need to pull a squad together for the qualifiers……
We need five-in-a-row……
And none of this is changed whatsoever by who else is in the Premiership. Not. An. Inch.
That’s me told. I also got the feeling no one at Celtic has any appetite to be involved in the kind of scenes we witnessed at Fir Park today. It’s not the image we have for our future. We want a successful, family club, open to all. As it has been since 1888.
Anyway, I’m sworn to secrecy on the identity of the player, but you’re smart, you’ll figure it out. Well done with the season tickets, take a bow.

Damn, Sportscene finishes with celebratory scenes.
I was hoping for a black screen, a minute’s silence and The Last Post playing us out…
But never mind – according to FF, Cammy Bell apparently gets married tomorrow! LOL, I bet the best man’s intching to add a little something to his speech. The Faither of the bride might call it all off…
Have a wee look at his Wikipedia info…:)
The huns only chance is to do what the should have 3 years ago when they were formed,get a team of talented youngsters in and go with a 3 or 5 year plan,
paying only what they can.
Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

For me Sportscene was just on big celebratory scene.
Fair play to McCall.When he started the season he was tasked with keeping Motherwell in the SPL,trying to win a trophy and maybe achieve a European spot.Well, one out of three ain’t bad.

Are you trying to peddle the old line about Davie Dodds being the unacceptable face of Scottish Football?
Full name – Patrick Kevin Francis Michael Nevin
CV includes Player and Chief Executive of Motherwell FC
Played for Chelsea FC for 5 years
Currently writes for Chelsea FC official website
Did he get the Motherwell CEO post the same way Duffield got the SFA CEO post?
What are/were his credentials?
Now feigns integrity and intellect as an talking (empty) head on Scottish TV.
Why do we expect anything remotely balanced from him?
So busy establishing his credentials as impartial that he makes more one sided comments than even Keevins.
I have just been on FaceTime with the old fella in Silsden, West Yorkshire.
He is 87 and has witnessed the Tic through thick and thin, including 67 in Lisbon. Took him 3 weeks to return, according to my aunty Bridget and his wife Phyllis, who is animated about it to this day when you get her on the subject.
Since the Huns died he has always been a cynic – ‘ach, their funny-handshake pals in the SFA’ll make sure they survive come what may’.
Tonight, he said: “They’re dead now, properly dead. They got reffed fairly in those two games and they got beat 3-1 and 3-0. I never thought I would see the day.”
I really do believe that today was the day the curtain was pulled back.
Goodbye, supremacist Huns.
Very pleased that a wonderful man like William Kelly is still with us to enjoy this moment.

To think we got summoned to Holyrood for 2 bookings…
I predict a world record ban for Moshni by which time Sevco will have released him.

Mc Call may have not saw the Jar Jar Binks incident ! Did you not see his attempt to retrieve the ball on the touchline at the doom dome the other night
” geez rs baw geez rs baw geez it geez it geez ra baw ”
Might have longsightedness ;)
To be fair to McCall, I think he means he didn’t see the Erwin push and the Mohsni kick and punch. Afterwards there was a few seconds during which there was a free-for-all as peacekeepers tried to separate brawling players.
That is when the picture of McCall’s intervention is taken. It is entirely feasible that he didn’t see the clash between Erwin and Mohsni that kicked it all off.

“thats as close to assault as you can get” takes a bit of beating
It was F***** assault,

I’ll admit it, I for one will miss Moshni playing for Sevco. The first few times I saw him and he kept falling on his ar$e I was convinced his agent must be the same guy who got George Weah’s cousin a deal with Southampton.
His part in murderwell’s 3rd was classic Moshni. He threw himself into the net at a Sevco corner and whilst the Well were racing away up field he was fighting with the net to free himself.
A truly atrocious football player for a truly atrocious football club.
Oh dear ,serial attention seeker alert,night bhoys.
#shitetalker
McCall wasnt asked if he seen the kick or the punch he was asked if he seen the (disgraceful disturbing shocking)scenes?
Liar
Wonder if Thompson will be asked why he gave a penalty rather than waiting the 1 second as the ball was put into the back of the net.
Ok they scored but seriously bad refereeing.
