John McGinn is worth the £4m Hibs want for him. If he was under contract at Celtic, we would not sell him for anything less. But his sale price will be determined by the number of potential buyers in the market and where the player wants to move to, not his inherent utility as a football player. These factors set his price.
I would not be surprised if Peter Lawwell had the the words “171 days” marked on a whiteboard in his office. That’s how long he will need to wait to put a pre-contract in front of McGinn. Having signed such a deal, the player’s value would be no more than £250k, a drop of £3.75m over the period, reducing at just shy of £22k a day.
You know Peter, it’s not going to happen. He’ll wait. John will wait too, and the people at Hibs will continue to murmur about Rod Petrie. I like signing players on pre-contracts. In the Celtic universe, it makes the world spin a little faster.
Stick at it, John. Give Hibs your best between now and January.
I’m reluctant to touch the Kieran Tierney “story”. By all reports, Celtic’s very firm reaction has convinced Everton to look elsewhere, but I’ll be pleased when the English Premier League transfer window closes in four weeks. Killing a transfer is an art, not a science.

They say there are about 12 million illegal immigrants in the USA. But if you ask a native American, that number is way too low.”
Today the US Senate has passed a resolution to make English the official language of the United States. Today President Trump said this is the ‘goodest news’ he’s heard in a long time.”

It is very easy to check now that the Syria Arab Army are finding the caches all over the place.
TOW missiles and launchers from the USA, that were supplied to so-called rebels, yet as if by magic ended up in the hands of Al qaeda and a host of other Jihadist groups.
The introduction of these anti-tank weapons, by the CIA was a game changer on the battlefield.
It almost worked, until Russia stepped in and saved the day.

They’re not the only ones finding cash all over the place

You type more about the Sevs & Trump than Celtic on these pages
The irony is lost
Remember this, politicians and lawyers get paid more if they hide the truth, is that not cheating

President Donald J Trump is looking after the poor and underprivileged American people, don’t worry about that.
I read recently that black unemployment is at it’s lowest level since records began.
As for mass immigration, if Western countries are so horrible and evil – why on earth does everyone else want to go and live in them?

Aye. My arse in parsley.
Fellas its been wonderful chatting with you all.
Be back tomorrow.
Love yeez.
This new VAR thing is likely to kill a lot of gambling on Fitba games. ;))
I don’t know many that go under in bets. The Refereeing has been abysmal in this World Cup. The amount of time wasted by just about Every Referee has been shocking. The wasted Time was never added on. Embarrassing seeing a Ref going and having a word with a guy on his own standing in an offside position, could not help himself talking to Everyone and wasting more time.
@ Celtic Park and in domestic games the Referee has been consistently P!sh for so long now. The Managing of the game by the MIB will just get worse now.
Mad. ?

You take care, ya old firmist at heart
In the words of another Cqner “the bookies pen can write the same words as a quill”

As the tourney went on referees from countries still in the competition got sent home….. in Ecosse the refs are impartial why would FIFA question a referee ???
As others have said “sort the refs” cheats through and through… if I was a ref and it was touch and go I would give Celtic the decision, not cheating, just instinct
That Penalty was very difficult to call.
I can see why it would be given or not given.
Perisic definitely moved his arm in a reaction even though it was happening very fast.
The biggest game of them all.
Wrong or Right
Well Done both teams for making it a Good Final.
Gerryfaethebrig,
Champions League games hate having a lot of injury Time because they are so desperate to get the Adverts on.
It is all these small things that annoy.
I’m hoping to see the French Bhoys help get Celtic to the CL Howevaaaaaah.
And given a decent draw for ONCE, do as well as possible – Hopefully the best we have ever done in the tainted CHAMPIONS League.
I really hope young Lewis Morgan becomes a great player for us … just read back
Raheem Sterling ???
He is two yrs older than Lewis, 43 more international caps, fair play only 2 international goals but nearly 50 epl goals in nearly 200 first team appearances … sometimes the nonsense on here should be proof read …. and has played in the semi final of a World Cup
But apart fae that Lewis can kick the ball with his two feet…. again I hope Lewis is a star with Celtic but in the real world he is no Raheem Sterling
Stolen trophie’s ?
How many stripped ?
Cheating huns haven’t had the equivalent of, having a wrist slapped.
Dear, dear.
Rebels ?
Aye, ma sun kissed bahooky.
Take care.
Petec 1.16am
The world is full of adverts :-)
When Brazil went out I was cheering on Belgium fir Aidan but sometimes all the fitba in the world means heehaw… for me after Neymar I think Kevin De Brunye is my Paul McStay, Modric would be a decent third choice :-)
I know I shouldn’t
Celt79
Is Murdo your favourite player ?
Same old shoite … different moniker same old typing “skills”
Delaney’s Dunky
My nephew texts me during the game he bet Perisic hat trick and I had bet Grizeman to score exactly 3 goals .. I used your analogy from the Bon Accord that France must be some team if they could leave out the the 3 Celtic musketeers …. he loved that and has now stole your patter … Viva La France :-)
Gerryfaethebrig,
I reckon Belgium were the best team. If only Big Dedryck had played. :)))
France seemed to me to be a team conserving energy for most games. Not very exciting tbh.
It is a tournament in a short space of Time. They have got it right and are the Winners.
Their cheating days have gone :-)
If you want to be stuck in the past get yourself a flute and a toy soldier outfit the world is a changing
I wound say 95% of Celtic fans want a version of Rangers to destroy the other 5% are on CQN moaning about Donald Trump
Petec 1.37am
Brazil were magic… they ran over the top of Belgium and had a stonewall penalty denied…. but DeBruyne is magic in my opinion everything he does is effortless he is one of the players I would love to see wearing the hoops
Gerryfaethebrig,
I find everything happening Today fascinating,
Donald Trump is gonnae putin place a dude he thinks will overturn the Roe Wade decision.
Paganism just got an uppercut.
CQN
Good night n god bless that was nearly 10 days I have tried to stay away (apologies for those who would have preferred it to be longer) totally agree with others about Moussa & Edouard, could be some partnership but I hope wee Leigh is raging and edges his way into the strike force
Good times ahead
Hail Hail
Gerry,
I thought the PSG defence @ Celtic Park was fantastic. The Brazillian flair and first touch was magical.
They all Pass through Parkhead gates.

I don’t vote after the expenses scandal and where I work I realise politicians don’t give a flying fcuk about who they are meant to represent … Trump is a self obsessed bam like every other politician …. they are all at it
Mon the Hoops ??
Gerry,
Leigh will do his very best to muscle in to the Formidable Celtic team.
He is a fighter.
Petec 1.59am
Gutted about Leigh’s latest setback he came back early (you won’t read that in the red tops) and by all accounts Brendan is delighted with his attitude the wee mhan is gallus enough to don the hoops :-)
Gerry,
He is an unbelievable finisher.
Brendan wants him there longer.
Fair Monday
Is now here (thanks Mags) am 47 will be 48 in Wednesday so I will expect many birthday wishes ….. all kidding aside my two older sisters and two older brothers always went on family “holidays” to Milford, Donegal, me, I think we went to Rhyl one September weekend but Fair Monday was always at Ayr …. still gutted my mum & dad never ever met my wee girl but I blame Mags McGill for reminding me about Fair Monday …. Roy C if lurking the morra I might nip up to St Joseph’s :-)
We live in great Celtic times ??
Petec 2.09am
I think he is our best finisher, delighted Brendan rated him
We live in beautiful Celtic times :-)
My Celtic never needed to win
1980s were magic
Centenary Bhoys R Us ????
Rush Hour
Is a nightmare now in Glasgow. On big European nights it is crazy.
1 mile, 2 mile…….. What is the thought process? Coming up with this parking nonsense?
I’m more for the 8 Mile jibber jabber.
He is a reprehensible dude. Seems to get off lightly Howevaaah.
