There’s always a bit of reticence signing a player who has been away from his previous club for four months. Carlton Cole hasn’t played since starting West Ham’s final games of last season, and presumably has only trained in isolation since then.
Expectations of a quick return, should Celtic offer him a contract, have to be tempered with the realisation that he’ll be at least a month away from full fitness, but by then we will be set to face Molde away.
One aspect of our play that will concern Ronny Deila is that we’re short of attacking variation. The high ball forward to Samaras, so long our staple on the road in Europe, is not an option. This will be the reason why Carlton is training at Lennoxtown this week.
I’d expect a short-term deal to be concluded between now and January, to give both sides a chance to check out the fit.

I think so too. Shockeroonie!

Funny how daft wee injuries can stop you playing!
I wore another players boots one game as mine had been pinched.
They were a size too wee but i thought they would be fine as i managed to get them on ok and it was just my big toes that were feeling the lack of space.
By half time i could hardly walk and had to come off.
Both my big toenails were so sore and went all black with the bruising before eventually falling off.
Suffered ingrowing toenails for months after they eventually grew back in and pretty much missed half a season!
Moral of this story?
Look after yer tootsies ;)

gledalystonsils,
there was a link posted yesterday to a hun site
asking how hey would get on against Celtic,
must say the answers from the deluded had to be seen to be believed
Is it me or have the loyal ones started sneaking out?
Saints sitting in now hoping for a draw.
How’s the magic hat?
2 things –
1. The most pleasing thing for me is, barring a miracle, there’s now only 1 remaining unfortunate chance that we will have to share a park with them this season.
2. Best thing I’ve watched on the BBC for months ;-)
Russian about to sing….
Oh what an atmosphere
Oh dear! !!
Looks like the blue rocket has been humbly running out of fuel and no one noticed.. ha ha
Shot down by Saints… and they’re not even heavenly.
Hail Hail

Meanwhile in proper football land, Lewindowski scores 5 in ten minutes.

First time I’ve seen Sevco live this season. Quite impressed with how they retain possession on the halfway line.
What price were St Johnstone today?
