There’s speculation in one of the ‘papers today that Celtic are interested in a 28-year-old forward playing in the English second-tier whom few of us have heard of. Celtic will sign a player of this profile on occasion, but he will not feature in a target list over two months before the transfer window opens. Lists with that profile on them are visited late in a disappointing window.
Footballers and their agents are always looking to maximise their return. Newspapers are always looking for stories. What does an agent need to do to be able to tell a newspaper in good conscience that Celtic are looking at a player? I think an email and phone call to one of the scouts is enough. There’s a whole shadow industry around football which sits in plain sight but is underappreciated.
“You can’t just drop someone into a football club from the other side of the world and expect them to adapt to the culture, food, training, all these various facets it takes.” Brendan Rodgers, talking about Yang’s recent good form after arriving at the club in the summer.
He added, “People not only forget it, but don’t understand it, or don’t want to understand it.” Too succeed at the game we need to understand key components of the game. None is more important that how to support the development of players.

Just an uneducated guess.

Sorry no Gary.
What was used for the first time by the referee in the 1969 english facup final?
At a time of rampant inflation instead of tossing a coin, he tossed a pound note
No he tossed a coin.

Looks like a certain defender who was regularly absent through injury.😀
With GG as his name…
Oh that didn’t come out right
With the original GG as his name🙃
Afternoon all.
Looks like the original GG.
“Brendan Rodgers will be represented by legal eagle Nick De Marco, who has been described by football finance expert Kieran Maguire as the ‘football law version of Lionel Messi’.”
Interesting development……..

To be fair, the picture with the three trophies, on of which is the Scottish cup, was a fairly big steer in the right direction.
Clue for ref.,question.
Seven sided.
SFTB- VG
Big guns out tomorrow at Mount florida, well in Celtic.
Wee guns farting about with statements and self importance.
Maybe just maybe the woman’s game doesn’t want hundreds of wee stoned guys singing about the ira for 2 hrs when the teams struggling in front of them.
Supporters groups that doesn’t support. Hmmmm
We slag sevcos groups, these guys have had a shocker all season.

It is, indeed, interesting. If the claim above is accurate, I can see the SFA/SPFL (?) coming a cropper here.

If he’s half as good and half as bold as the late Paul McBride, he’ll do for me.
He took no sh&t from the masons at Hampden. He even trumped them with their own rules for one of Lenny’s bans. 😂👍

do you know who it is ?
IQV himself.
my pals in chicago the celtic converts ping me everyday about getting to see the bhoys, quite infectious.
things you never thought you woyuld ever ever say.
I enjoy michael portillos railway journeys.
his scottish ones especially,
now if you can stomach it, watch him at cathkin, wearing the Johnstone Lions academy strip (all green), meeting willie haughey,
he looks as if he has never kicked a ball in his life, however he is still better than Patterson for scotland.
a good wee watch actually.

Interesting to see the press catching up with the fact that Brendan will be represented by a top notch lawyer. I knew of that since the week after Brendan was called to explain himself before the Blazers at SFA. Michael Nicholson told me that by email when I asked him what the club were doing to support Brendan. .
…. A Merkin???
Ayr United chairman David Smith has declared he is “delighted” with the work undertaken by Clancy Consulting on the new North Stand at Somerset Park.
The 748-seater stand, beneath a cantilevered steel roof, has been designed by the Prestwick office of multi-disciplinary engineering firm Clancy Consulting.
