After edging ever-closer to a deal for weeks, it looks certain Patrick Roberts will not be playing for Celtic next season. You are well-aware Celtic have been desperate to secure his permanent signing from Manchester City, but I have it on good authority that the club and player are now looking elsewhere.
Brendan Rodgers has both budget and ambition for the season ahead and Patrick was a big part of those plans, but the manager has now moved attention elsewhere (and I don’t mean to Aberdeen).
Patrick blossomed here, in particular during the second half of last season. He is an entertainer in the great Celtic tradition, but I have confidence in the manager to deliver what is required for the challenges ahead.
We wish Patrick all the best and thank him for a great 18 months.

if you have to drink it, you two options:
option 1
1. turn TV on and watch NASCAR…. or
option 2
1. mix with coke … .
2. pour two glasses ….
3. put Caleb Caudle on the stereo (Ghosts of Carolina, perhaps) …(see below) ..or maybe Kris Kristofferson, if you prefer
4. turn the lights down low..
5. hand one of the glasses to a lovely southern belle (named Daisy, or Scarlett or Charlotte, perhaps)…

I recommend option 2.
yeah … just looking for an excuse to get the Friday afternoon music session started.
:)
Logged on hoping for a Carlsberg Friday but I guess Im just a week to early.
In other news, went our 2nd Polensa supermarket grocery shop and bought Carlsberg. Amongst many other fine liquids.

You’ve just got to take it one transfer at a time.
Just saw on Twitter that EKFCs new manager is, once of this parish, Billy Stark. One of my many Centenary season heroes.
So a Carlsberg Friday after all though just a 330ml one…

Your player exclusives are usually positive but you obviously trust your source.
Patrick realised the potential Man City saw in him and we reaped the benefits of developing him under two managers, and his left peg is Nakaesque.
You can take the bhoy out of Celtic, but you can’t take the Celtic out of the bhoy.
Not giving up hope yet.
Mon the cliches CSC
And btw, its not over till the fat lady sings.

While we’re on the subject, where is this ‘line’ clubs try to get transfers over? Is it the goal line? Is there a keeper in? Can you be offside? Is goal line technology used to decide if a deal is over the line or not?
So many questions…..so few answers………
“Stepping up to the plate”
“IT’S A GAME OF TWO HALVES”
“RUNNING THE CHANNELS”
“FOX IN THE BOX”
“TEXTBOOK”
“He’s got that in his locker”
“COULDN’T HIT A COO’S A*8E WITH A BANJO”
“worked his socks off”
“early doors”
“the wall does its job”
I really thought we’d go the extra mile to sign Paddy. Now i’m just, well, sick as a parrot.

How come the transfer window doesn’t slam open?

Sevco swoop – Celtic dither
At the end of the day……… ( it gets dark? )

My own pet hate is “one straight from the training ground’.
As opposed to where, Asda car park?
Jobo
I think wee Davy Provan writes them.
What might a goal-shy defender proverbially suffer if he unexpectedly finds himself in the opposition penalty area?
CelticQuickQuiz csc
BSR, aye but they lack a plan B.
Bsr, was he trying to walk it into the net?
Bsr, 2 left feet? ( a bonus if your left footed )
How come Celtic players get slapped with a ban and are not just banned?
Scott Brown is frequently’ walking a tightrope’ after that challenge.
BSR
He’s got some engine on him
Feck with that weight he couldnae run anywhere
Barney
Has the Jonny Hayes transfer been ‘rubber stamped’
BT
Mind when Tommy Burns signed David Hannah that was all you heard ‘ he’s got a great engine ‘
Bsr, ‘having a medical’ ;-)
Barney
A variant of that is ‘ he scored with his favourite left peg ‘
Is his other left peg not his favourite then?

*******
That one is understandable …. in a few years from now, kids (who are now Celtic fans) will talk ….
Kid 1 : ‘my da was telling me stories about going to watch Rangers at Ibrox.. and going to see them at the training ground.”
Kid 2: “Rangers? who’s that? Ibrox?’
Kid 1: They were an old football team.. but they died a few years ago … tha’ts probably why you dont know their name …and their old training now used to be where the Asda store is now …
see …easy mistake to make
“Keep it tight for the first twenty minutes”
Always a favourite of mine.
“Set your stall out”
and from Fri nite 5-a-sides
“His second touch is a tackle”
“Like passing to a kerb”
“Has a touch like a rapist” :)
I think I know what people mean when they say ” he’s playing a false number 10″ but for some reason the phrase just wants me want to laugh out loud
A good time to score a goal……
SETTING FREE THE BEARS FOR RES. 12 & OSCAR KNOX on 16TH JUNE 2017 6:07 PM
You should go at night time
A wee reminder bhoys that as it’s Grangemouth gala tomorrow oldtim is having his annual BBQ
A few of us are going through and some will be returning for CRC mini hoot
If in the area of either Grangemouth or Glasgow it’s an open invite
My personal favourite:
They have a corner in a dangerous position…
When the keeper makes a relatively good save:
“That one was for the cameras.” As if the feckin commentator knew anything about goalkeeping.
Who are the cameras anyway? Some suppressed band of people.
Sometimes the hype lives up to expectations
Bring back “What a stramash” and “Up go the heads.”
