We’re getting to that time of the transfer window when clubs with money and who are either underperforming, or who have silverware in sight, often make desperate decisions.
It is a remarkable statement of the times that three Celtic first team players have attracted interest from English Premier League clubs, at valuations that a year ago would appear eye-watering. It’s just as remarkable that we’ve not locked the suitors in a room until they emptied their wallets.
Seven months into the season, five credible Champions League performances and 27 peerless games in domestic football and our 34-year-old goalkeeper attracts a higher bid than would be achievable by any player at a Scottish club other than Celtic.
Not that I’m agreeing with all this ‘What we have we hold’ business. Every playing asset has a price, to borrow a regular CQN phrase from 2005.
I hear Peter Lawwell was spotted earlier buying tickets for tonight’s showing of T2 Trainspotting for himself, Brendan, Craig, Erik and Moussa. “Unreal” wage offers can turn a player’s head. Better get them to the movies with their phones switched off.

Great minds…? LOL!
Beyond parody now as the biggest stories are the deals that they expected to go through but didn’t.
Time to hang up the yellow tie Jim and get back to the bedsides of the sick.

Or fools seldom differ x
What a wonderful bit of PR by our CEO.
Send our top rated striker MD to London (into the lions den) for a knee scan and returns to Paradise saying “I am staying with Celtic”
Well done PL and welcome home Moussa

Spot on about the hertz agricultural approach and the ref turning a blind eye in terms of cards. However I thought the st Johnstone players were allowed even more freedom to swing the boot on Wednesday.
The other thing of note for me on Wednesday was the foul on Roberts not being awarded at 0-0 in the first half but a penalty being awarded for a similar foul when we were 3-0 up and it counted for nothing.
Although goal difference might be important at the end of the season.
i stood behind jim white in a que at glasgow airport one morning.
not well turned out at all, pish stained isnt descriptive enough , freakishly thin in all the spots a man is meant to be athletic.
very odd individual

What time does the German transfer window shut? ;-)
Ok
Enough of the Peter Lawwell love in
Lawwell has turned down 50 million
50 million which could have been used to build the new hotel ( with Almores Cafe) pay off any bank debt,secure the future of the club,end world poverty and even pay his bonus.
Any decent forward thinking club chairman would have taken the money.
But oh no not Mr “I want success on the Pitch” Lawwell
Well him and his puppet Rodgers have to go
I have had enough of this “success on the pitch” nonsense….We are a PLC not a bloody football club.
Its a healthy bank balance we want
Lawwell out.
Leo Fasan to Port Vale on loan
Bsr
Doesn’t matter as Barry locked in the boot of the Sevco bus….. O hold on a minute
HH
Chelsea have come back with final 48.5 million bid for Moussa.
Celtic reported as interested.
WHITS
Your summation of what a PLC should be doing is better than the bloody horses you’ve getting me to back ;))
village hotel group template for building a spa/pool/gym and rooms model would be very good for the celtic park foot-print,
affordable build, 30 weeks construction, return on investment 2 years at 50% occupancy.
and an onsite cafe open to the plebs
GEAROID
Bid for Barrie is still coming, could be here before……………..The The Rangers
St Stivs
Certainly didn’t see a handsome hun that morning

And then ran away…?

Clogher, thoughts and prayers for your uncle Roddy. God Bless and RIP.
The Windae Cleaner is in the building.
No liquidity boost for Coop Bank.
No late night candle burning.
No car park vigils.
So be it.
I said last week,that Ebousse, would be the only player coming in this transfer window,
Ach…ffs give it a rest
I hear Celtic are interested in signing two of Ebousse’ s brothers.
You wait ages for Ebousse and then three come along at once.
It’s all over and Sky cut to Ibrox, where thousands have gathered in Edmiston drive outside the main doors, popping champagne (well, Mad Dug 20/20) in celebration of Barrie MacKay’s retention…
Simultaneously, shots from Leipzig, Madrid and Barcelona as fans kneel crestfallen in the streets weping into their new, never-to-be-wron ‘MacKay’ tops.
Gordon Smith on hand to proclaim keeping MacKay as being ‘like a new signing, or fifteen…’
