Rogic’s next contract

929

Tom Rogic is well within his rights to take time to consider his next contract.  He is thriving at Celtic, but with a year left on his current deal, the future is open.  Front and centre of his mind, of all players’ minds, will be the dirty little subject.  The money paid to lesser talents than Tom in England is incredible, Tom is well within his rights to ponder his position in the food chain.

Then there is his place in the Celtic squad.  Brendan Rodgers is continually looking to improve the team.  It doesn’t matter who you are, you cannot be sure of a place well into the future.

There are also reasons to consider why Celtic might be a good fit for him.  He is not the archetypal English Premier League player, all physique and running.  Tom is a throwback to not so long ago when craft on the ball got you into the team, not the ability to burst a lung for 90 minutes.  All too often, he’s a 60 minute star.

Evidence is everywhere that he is a big game player and proven match winner, but he is not going to temp a title chasing team from England, instead it would be the bottom half battlers who are most likely to be interested in him.  He’s not a natural fit.  Better to stay with the champions.

    completely agree, paul 67 about TR – his best place is here. Will he take the money ? WE don’t know. Will he get the exposure in bloatpl he gets here, no chance.

  2. On the last blog about wee Bertie , I was at a Celtic supporters convention a few years back , wee Bertie was there . At the pool party wee Bertie was sunbathing on the next sunbed to me. The karaoke was on , I got the call to to go up for a song , I sang the Uruguay song. when I finished I went back to my sunbed and I asked Bertie “have you heard that song before Bertie ” he said no son it,s a good one” . it must be a Port song.

  7. gene, thomthetim, thanks for your replies last night regarding francie and josie, billybear thanks for your reply about jimmy logan, i always thought with him being in the celtic story, he might be one of us obviously not.hh.

  8. Tom Rogic

     

    We are lucky to have the boy, had he been afforded protection from the referees we would have a superstar on our hands, I despair at the posters who say he is injury prone, the referees are to blame for his problems imo.

     

    But I will get my revenge when I come across the cheats with the whistles when I pass over, I will make sure the bastards suffer.

    Every seat taken at Hampden is a vote of confidence in the SFA, no matter how you cut it.”

     

     

    The SFA are likely to take it that way but the people who have bought the tickets will see it as supporting their team.

  14. Thank you to the cqn-er who recommended ‘The Boy on the Shed’ by paul ferris.

     

     

    Stunning read. V v poignant.

     

     

    His sections on souness and Barton were interesting, illuminating and confirms what many of what us think/believe.

    I was only asking about you the other day. Wasn’t sure if your user name. I’d been discussing the blackpool shammy and commented on Vmhan’s pal. I think if I’ve been given the correct info it was your goodself I partnered at snooker to destroy 2 of my sons:-)

     

    Thoroughly enjoyed your company in Blackpool, would be nice to catch up at some point in the future.

     

    Hope you’re well and best wishes to you and yours.

  18. mike in toronto on

    we were talking about Zlatan the other day (okay … I was talking about Z …the rest of you were rolling your eyes and/or scrolling by ….)

     

     

    but, apparently, he has taken out a full page ad in an LA paper to announce his arrival… it simply say

     

     

    ‘Dear LA. You’re welcome’.

     

     

    It made me laugh.

     

     

    Whatever else you say about Z, he is not short of confidence.

     

     

    :)

  19. very sad when the country you grew up in, you cant support the national team, why you may say well they dont want my support, because of my religion, used to love supporting scotland as a kid but one thing sticks in my mind, my late father took me to see scotland v wales circa 1960s remember big mike england taking down one of our players, now i know it was a celtic player maybe jinky or willie wallace, but the sad thing was, it was only me and my old man in that part of the crowd that was castigating mike england, no one else opened their mouths suppose i should have known then, but as a young bhoy its hard to take in. anyway cant wait for the next celtic game.hh.

    These are different to the ones Laura sent out?

     

    Have they changed bud?

     

    Is the two names at the side of the horse an owner and jockey?

     

    I guess Laura sent the jockeys only?

     

    Seemed to be going smoothly till you got involved?

     

    Are you a race fixer? I’d better not find out my horses are stopped!

     

     

    Hearing of course bud. Hope everything goes well for you all tonight.

     

    You must have some energy my friend!

     

    It’s a wonderful thing you do helping so many in need.

     

    Hope you’re well. ( and not too exhausted)
