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……….

I’ve just logged on. If you’re a waiter and you’ve just taken Sally’s order then you’ve sent it to CQN instead of the kitchen.

Hail Hail Miki, Hope your alright mate,

GHOOD MHAN …..!!!!!!!!
Guys,
did the same on SSB – having vowed to never listen again I put it on to hear if we signed anyone.
First caller opens with “Hello Hello – I’m a Celtic season ticket holder” Don’t think so…
“I want to complain about Celtic” – end of SSB season back to the ipod.

I don’t listen to fuds, at work, in the pub or anywhere to be honest….so would never think of doing it on my beloved tranny( that’s a radio for you younger CQNer’s)….pick a station that makes you smile
I wonder if Derk wears white socks??
miki67 Great to see you back on CQN. Prayers said daily for you mate.

Bar L ?:)
Miki-strength to you amigo.
Up visiting Ullapool. Local in bar gets chattin. “Green or blue”? He asks. I tell him. After he’s finished his drink he goes to leave. He purs oot his hand and says nice to meet ye pity yer a Celtic man. I told him at least my team!s no deid and I dont follow a Newco. He replies…..”i know, I know. Not enamoured by events but I know.”
Media House not impacting up north????
Ullapool the most overrated wee place in the world. Drove from Inverness expecting great things, it’s a huge disappointment.

Off oot.
I got tickets for Wednesday in 118 – I want to bring my 8 year old daughter to her first game – she wanted it, she’s jumping up and down with excitement, though she jumps up and down a lot. Do I need to worry about 118 ? Me and my son usually end up near away fans and there’s only ever the odd problem , every now and then the police will remove a DU, hertz or killie goon (for the record, most DU, Hertz and killie fans cause no problems). I was at the spartak moscow qualifier beside their fans and it was unbelievable. I’m sort of having second thoughts about bringing her but am probably just worrying too much.
any comments anyone ?
Evening guys.
Exciting rumours about tonight.
Speaking to my Dutch boss about Derk : he’s very fast but that’s all he has. Hope he turns out to be another “flop” playing in the Dutch leagues who we turn into a superstar
On finbossagsen he says he is fantastic player and would be a massive coup to land
On fisher “no chance he is big money to secure him, too much for Celtic”
He then repeated the Van Dijk is awesome.
So there you go, just one mans views right enough
Hope we get one of these strikers as well
” Music is such a wonderful way to express resistance and keep your identity.”
Need to keep that fine sentiment in the oul back pocket for the bi annual CNQ song debate.
