In the space of three days, Celtic have gone from having a goalkeeper deficit to looking like they are sorted for the coming campaign, and possibly for a few years to come. Kasper Schmeichel will fill the leading role this season with Viljami Sinisalo as understudy.
Kasper is four years older than Joe Hart was when he joined in 2021. Whereas Joe only played around 40 games in the four seasons before then, Kasper has been first choice everywhere he has been for 15 years.
While at Leicester two years ago, Brendan Rodgers sold then 36-year-old Kasper to Nice for £1m. After one season in France, Nice promoted their reserve keeper to the top spot and released Kasper, who spent last season at Anderlecht.
That recent patchwork of clubs is the only concern in a stellar career for the Denmark captain. At Celtic he will be required to cope with high pressure environments like cup finals and Champions League games, while helping to develop the career of the man who will hopefully succeed him. His form at the Euros suggests he is ready for the task.

Anybody who teed off after 3pm has caught the worst, or if not the worst then the wettest of the weather down on the Ayrshire coast.
Always remember though, no rain, and yer living in a desert.
No need for apologies in mentioning the Blue team. We get some sour minded posts about posting at all about Sevco but we’ve talked about Rangers/Sevco since this blog began and so have all other Celtic sites.
Those that make sour posts about any mention of “thems” are like Grammar/Spelling Pedants in that no sooner do they pick you up about it, that they will commit the same or similar error themselves.
BTW- it’s all right to mention Hearts, Dundee and Falkirk too
Heard the Australian commentator saying yesterday “I don’t think there will be a hosepipe ban here any time soon”.
Laura Davies is a good communicator, keeps her comments concise, relevant and informative.
On the other hand, I feel that Iona Stephen seems to love the sound of her own voice and prattles on a load of pish most of the time.
Links golf is tremendously exciting.
I like to see the weather challenge the players.
It does seem a tad unfair when the day is split into obvious good and bad halfs.
Saying that, Lowry has made the errors here. Guys on course at the same time are faring better.
Fingers crossed the big guy plays Offaly well tomorrow.

Good evening all from the Victoria Bar. It’s raining but I don’t shed a tear, the darts are on and I’ve got my beer.

Or layabout. 🤔
Had a great message from my mate today. His treatment is going well and he’s feeling good. Hope to see him soon for a few beers. He lurks on here and is well known to the Shipbank Shipwrecks. All the best big M.👍

If you subscribe to Barnum’s assertion that there is one born every minute? ….

Round about 3.20 in this video, you will see BRRB deciding, where will he go next. :)

4.40: One racist many monikers
GARYGILLESPIESHAMSTRING On the basis of him not being able to get picked for Scotland, I assume he is no better than Adams.
If he were better than Adams I would assume he would be in the Scotland team.
It is my opinion that Adam’s is not good enough for Celtic.
On that basis, there is no evidence to suggest that Conway would be good enough for Celtic.
Thank goodness the real world isn’t governed by such cold, unshakable logic. What a horrible place it would be if it were.
Reminds me of primary school when Celtic beat Hearts 2-0 and Hearts beat Rangers 1-0 and we all decided that meant Celtic were going to beat Rangers 3-0.
A tune for the SMSM.

Delighted when Joe Hart airbed over the the moon with Kasper
Maybe Matt O might fancy another season with the Danish captain as a team mate 🇩🇰
airbed = signed !!!!!

” ….while Rangers have also spent time in the lower leagues following all that business in 2012.”

Perhaps we are too harsh on the SMSM and don’t give them enough credit when they almost get it right.
Replace two small words
…. “all that”
with two other small words
…. “close of”
And it’s bang on.

“… spent time in the lower leagues …”
I find that funny as well .
Makes it seem like they went on a wee holiday :-))
Anyway, it`s a goodnight from me.
Goodnight.
Re Conway ,only seen him once on TV ,came on as sub. Scored a good goal ,but didn’t impressed me .,but for a small fee why not .?
Idah …forked tongue ??…would not be the first…never liked his constant need to gesticulate to the fans to urge them on !?…when was the last time you paid to watch the Celts Adam !!? 🤔
CQN = unhappiness
Not sure why if you love Celtic you feel the need to type .. then type … then type how unhappy you are
Ffs … if CQN was about back in the day ….
