Brendan Rodgers would have looked at Kris Commons age, position and recent injury record and assumed he’s not going to get much from him this season. He’d not be the first Celtic manager to come to that conclusion about Kris.
Kris has created more chances per minutes played than anyone in a Celtic shirt over the last decade, and that includes the golden era of Nakamura, Maloney and McGeady, which brought us into the Champions League knock out stages for the first time.
He didn’t fit Ronny’s system and might not fit Brendan’s, but to win leagues, cups and qualify for Europe, you need someone who can be relied upon to open obstinate defences, and we’ve struggled to find a better tool for this job than Kris Commons.
He’s in the final year of his final Celtic contract, but if he goes, I hope it’s not before 31 August.

Bunga Bunga Berlusconi sells A C Milan to the Chinese for a cool £430 million.

Ray Winstone’s Big Disembodied Heid… The way the pounds dropping i hope he got it in Euros! Naw actually i dont.
Going for the record now.
Drat!
Lionsbrand – the sevco fan’s shirt dealer. Apparently no receipts given. Help for heroes copyright infringement. Also, using Nike and Adidas shirts. i wonder if they are legitimate. I wonder if it might be worth the Inland Rev having a look under the stone.
I’d bet a few quid on more nonsense. It’s in their dna
have watched the games up to now and enjoyed the high tempo training. been impressed with
a number of players i/e armstrong, rogic, allen etc.players will leave and players will come in. complete trust in bredans management. cant wait for the game tonight.
i see no new article!!!
Hello again all you young rebels.
Well, finally got face timing the wee mhan, i was desperate to hear
what he thought of his tour of Celtic park but comp. problems
delayed our communication but when he finally got through i never
got a word in, in a blizzard of words all i could take in was dressing
rooms, green brigade, standing area, Jinky, Henky, Sammy, Broony
and the dugouts so i guess he was impressed and then his dad had
to cough up to get him the new away top which had just been put on
display in the superstore, don’t know how they will carry all the new
tops and T shirts for him and his team mates back to Oz, hope they
don’t have to pay for extra luggage because i think my grandson has
skint his dad :-))
Thanks to BMCUW, THE BARCA MOLE, COWIEBHOY, and anybody else
who tried to arrange for some of the legends to meet up with him on
the tour, that would have been awesome but i was too late letting you
all know of his visit, as it is he will have great stories to tell his mates
when he gets home, thanks again, the Celtic family eh, i say again,
wha’s like us.

I thought Janko had an excellent 1st half the other day also. I have yet to see what all the fuss about Allen is though, i know he made the goal for Christie but im still not convinced, hes hardly a novice at 24, but im more than willing to be proved wrong if it benefits us.
Rogic must stay!!!
Zidane said: “He is a very big signing for Celtic. I like to follow the progress of exciting, young French players and I know Bayern Munich, Monaco and Juventus were looking at him.”He will be playing for a coach in Brendan Rodgers who has played a big part in developing some of the best strikers in Europe.”
Zidane on Dembele
The way the pound is dropping will cost us, foreign players will be more expensive, on the other hand our players will become cheaper for foreign teams, an i think we will sell more than we buy so could be a winning situation for us.
I had said Raonic would win wimbledon, but Cilic looks like he is well up for it, as well. Their semi-final (assuming they both win their matches today) might not be one for tennis purists, but for serve enthusiasts, they wont see many better matches.
I know Murray is the guy for most on here, but, if Cilic or Raonic serve well, I think they may take him in the final.

Welcome.
My guess is that the name Mats Nilloc has something to do with Tam Collins, if you read it backwards.
Bang on Auld Tam, glad you spotted that too, thanx for the welcome, ;-)

If you spell Cilic backwards you get… Cilic.
Bada Bing –
How refreshing to hear a genuine world class football icon sing the praises of a young Celtic signing without resorting to disparaging comments about the state of Scottish Football and the move being a “step down” or an “easy option” as is the norm from English football names.
AT-very encouraged,specially from ZZ
In keeping with CQN tradition i have to run, so i will say , Aff oot for now, hail hail.
new article posted.
BARNEY67

Did Zizou not say anything about Clint Hill? ;))
BARNEY67
Welcome!
Hope you’ll be happy on here!
:-)
HH!!
Well done Celtic.
Best player on park so far?
Big Nirlo.
Certainly answered the question, does he want to be here?
Looking forward to second half.
