Celtic have been linked with a whole barrage of players over the last 24 hours, strongly linked in some instances. While it is more fun to drool over players coming in than fret as existing players leave the club, I’m very sure that some of the reports floating around right now are the product of wishful thinking on the part of agents trying to place their players with a top European club.
For each player you read about, two others will be under consideration, and remember the golden rule, if players or agents are talking publicly, they are not talking to Celtic. It’s easy to generate screeds of column inches for you, or your client, with a few well-chosen phrases.
Ukio Bankas statement this morning that current bids for the assets of Hearts which they hold security over, specifically Tynecastle Stadium, scene of Scotland’s most famous non-assault, do not meet their valuation presents real challenge to the club. Hearts are a club capable of generating in the region of £10m. Operating the club on a budget this size will be difficult, raising enough cash to satisfy Ukio Bankas might be impossible.
Unlike the situation last year with Rangers, when Craig Whyte secured an irrevocable undertaking upon liquidation to transfer Ibrox Stadium to Sevco 5088 Ltd, Ukio Bankas liquidators are unlikely to reject a CVA but accept a lower bid for Tynecastle. Without a stadium, a Newco is unlikely. The best Hearts fans could be faced with is going “Cap in hand”, as they sing down Easter Road, to Hibs, with a request for Newco to ground-share.
Wallace Mercer was ahead of his time. Flats, flats……….

With the talk of Bangoura I thought it was worth pointing out that Austria Wien are not likely to sell Phillip Hosiner to us…
Because they are seeded to potentially play against us in the 4th round of CL qualifying if we both get through.
Or if they draw someone else and qualify then perhaps he will want to stay with them for their first ever Champions League run.

Station Bar McCafferty’s always made me laugh. Had a sign up no colours but with two Celtic buses leaving on a Saturday the pub was full of green.
Funny when whoever was playing Dumbarton wandered in and was told no colours.
*also sponsor the FPs who had 3 strips when I played for them, all green, all yellow and all white which they mixed on a regular basis, was interesting the mix when playing the academy.
BTW your Aunt May worked in there when it was the Broo.

He’s more polished now, but he would probably give a lot to have that hair-do back.
I don’t know who it is, can I phone a friend
TT
I’ve been in them all.
By our standards this hasn’t been a bad summer and my enforced absence from work has let me get out and about regularly.
The way folks are describing SSB (I don’t listen to it so don’t know) it seems a bit like CQN these days with so called fans spending their time slagging Celtic.
Looking at that photograph, the guy on the right looks like Alfred Finnbogasson

Hiya,pally?
Nice of you tae Gether Up… Much o’ the Pearls which Ah Scattered~
in that Submission of Mine, tae which Ye hiv replied.
Yes,it is No, necessarily.. the Actual Amount of Goals that Ah Striker Gets,in the Course of a Game..or a Season, however substantial, as that may be…
that wid draw me tae Him.
It is the Percentage of Success, in Taking Full Advantage of the Number of Scoring
Opportunities, which Befalls Him,in the course of a Game, and of which he actually… accomplishes… that Draws me To Him.
Ah did Not see..
Joe McBride or Dixie.. Perform.. Ah believe Ah did See a Young Lennox, but at that time he was a Mere Stripling and Ah wiz no impressed by his Scoring Ability.
Henrik, has bin the Only Striker , whom Ah wid Consider tae Be
A Dead Shot.
A Sergeant York..or Frank Butler or his Wife.. Type…. of Dead Eyed Richard.
Henrik, Missed Very Few..Scoring Ops.
Celtic, need Wan of They Types.. fur Celtic, as a team … Create a Hellava loata Chances..
Now that is the Only Type of Linwood Striker, Which Ah wid go Alooking Fur..
if Ah wiz a Celtic Scout.
Instead.. Celtic Scouts, go oot looking ..with Determined Purpose..
Searching the Highways, Byways..and Alleys.. Mostly.. The Alleys!
Fur…
Big Gawky, Fitless and Fumbly Target Men..who wid Be lucky tae hiv
One Solitary Shot ,at goal.. During, The Whole Match… and
of course, fail tae mak that Shot count.
It jist Disnae Compute , Will Robinson, Ah tellya..
It Jist disnae.. Bloody well…Compute!
