Seen Ian bankier has retired, just waiting on Peter lawell to be anouced as his replacement ?.
1.) 29 Jul 2022 16:39:26
He has been the most wooden spokesperson for our club ever. In all fairness it's not his job to carry out any public speaking and he doesn't say a lot about anything, but when he does he makes you want to fall asleep after 5 seconds. Remember him at the press conference for Dom McKay being unveiled? He sat there like a dummy.
I think if Lawwell got the job there would be a mass protest from the fans! lol HH.

New blood is requited at board level if we're serious about taking Celtic Football Club forward.
The days of getting yer pal a gig round the table should be long gone and please, no more Tory barstewards as they don't belong in Paradise.

Afternoon All
Personally I don't know if Bankier was a good or bad member of the Celtic board
One thing I do note is that we as a club overall always seem to be in a financially healthy position and would assume this is due to the whole board as a collective (or words to that effect) .
I always ask my mates when they moan and groan about board is. Would they rather have the Old Firm board or our own board. and answer without wearing our green specs?

The day Bankier said at the AGM that Celtic couldn't compete in Europe his arse should have been bounced down The Celtic Way.
31 Jan 2020 16:50:26
Atsu rumour picking up pace, boy has electric pace.
1.) 31 Jan 2020 17:07:49
We've approached Newcastle according to sly.
2.) 31 Jan 2020 17:17:43
Aye but they said we were in for wanyama tae.
3.) 31 Jan 2020 17:29:48
He would only be cover. He is no better than what we already have.
30 Jan 2020 18:34:37
Celtic apparently have made a bid in the region of £3million for Oxford United midfielder Shandon Baptiste.
1.) 30 Jan 2020 19:23:40
Another project 🤷â€â™‚ï¸ What’s going on with us, where are these “oven ready “ players he kept talking about.
2.) 30 Jan 2020 19:31:46
Supposedly no bid was made. Him and another Going to Brentford for the 3million quoted.
3.) 30 Jan 2020 19:43:14
Why is he another project? Is it because he is only 21?
Only in Scotland does it seem that if you are under a certain age you are classed as a project.
4.) 30 Jan 2020 19:50:59
Latest reports state that Both Shandon Baptiste and Tariqe Fosu are having medicals at Brentford tonight.
5.) 30 Jan 2020 19:54:09
Seemingly we haven't.
6.) 30 Jan 2020 20:20:42
Jonbhoy, I’d say he was a project as he’s only played 23 games since he went pro in 2017. Age isn’t a problem
for me, if we were going for a 21 year old that’s played regularly for a decent outfit. Maybe a decent standard under 21 player, even Soro who looks good . Lennie has said we may not see him much this season.
17 Jul 2019 10:22:38
Seen a rumour linking us with Julian Korb German RB for Hannover.
1.) 17 Jul 2019 11:43:38
Didier Agathe is still playing, Lenny should try and entice him back CP. If only for 1 season.
2.) 17 Jul 2019 12:22:41
Probably bullsh*t and just another name thrown our way from an untrustful source,
he got sent off and had a shocker against us when we drew 1-1 with monchengladbach so he's probably in the same bracket as toljan.
3.) 17 Jul 2019 14:04:45
Yeah, always best to judge a player on one performance.
What do you want? We're all crying out for a rb and when a name is mentioned, you're not happy? I don't understand some folk.
4.) 17 Jul 2019 14:22:39
Well he can only comment on the performance he's seen. So you'll be happy with any right back? Why don't we just go for toljan at least we know for sure he's gash.
5.) 17 Jul 2019 14:59:17
So because one person said he's gash after the only game he's ever seen, we've to all assume he's a bad player? Grow up.
We all saw toljan over enough games to judge more fairly how good he was. Absolutely no comparison to be made.
6.) 17 Jul 2019 17:21:33
Why don't u go n watch a game this guy has played in and leave your input, instead of denying someone theres. Its all about opinions and greenclover is entitled to his/ hers.
7.) 17 Jul 2019 18:17:59
I mentioned he had a shocker against us so how do you know that means I'm judging him on one game, did i say I've only seen him play once and that I'm only judging him one specific game? Did I also say I wasn't happy when a right back gets mentioned?
You clearly didn't read the comment right and are writing any old crap before thinking it through.
Just because I said he had a shocker doesn't mean I'm assuming he's a bad player on one game, how do you know I've not seen various games he's played?
8.) 17 Jul 2019 19:32:24
Can read fine thanks, you mention one game and say he's as good as toljan. That's what I read because that's what you wrote. I've seen him play, looks alright. I would rather we were linked with rbs than not.
I also don't believe you've seen this guy more than once but carry on, you'll be head of recruitment before you know it.
9.) 17 Jul 2019 21:08:56
Whatever pal opinions will be opinions, you clearly can't understand what you read when I didn't even say he's as good as toljan, I said he's in the same bracket as toljan judging by the games I've seen him play for both monchengladbach and hannover.
Believe whatever you want, I would rather be interested in right backs the same as you and the rest of us so I'm not knocking the guy based on one performance but from games I've seen him play and he stands out as a sore thumb, I'll tell you what but, next player that gets linked to us give me a shout and I'll give you the lowdown seeing as though I'm heading to be head of recruitment😉.
31 Aug 2015 09:29:55
Heard the deal for Simunovic could be dead in the water with dinamo demanding a 40% sell on fee with celtic only willing to go to 25%. Anybody eles heard this?
1.) 31 Aug 2015 09:55:08
They must have seen our transfers to the epl over the past few seasons and wanting a bigger slice of the pie.

South Korea are 1 nil down with 20 minutes to go, is it 2 legs or will that mean Oh and Yang will be back for the weekend?
1.) 30 Jan 2024 18:30:46
It’s currently in the 2nd half of Extra Time and it could go to penalties.
South Korea scored an equaliser in the 9th minute of injury time.
OH and Yang haven’t currently made it off the bench.
2.) 30 Jan 2024 19:02:32
South Korea won on penalties.
OH and Yang never played any part in their victory.
If Australia can beat South Korea in the Quarter Finals,
Hibs player Boyle will miss the Celtic visit.
3.) 30 Jan 2024 19:04:08
I watched it South Korea go through on penalties.
4.) 30 Jan 2024 19:20:39
unfortunately South Korea won on pens 4-2.
26 Jan 2024 18:38:40
The Brondby boy was left out of the squad today for the game against FC Fredericia, there fans think he could be on the move.
1.) 26 Jan 2024 19:17:48
SLY saying the deal for the Bronsby striker has collapsed and we have no plans to get anyone else in this window. The board and Manager are happy with the squad we have for now.
If true there are going to be ructions.
Taylor out for a while and we have no real replacement apart from Scales. AR could do a job but he isn't match fit, having played so little.
Scales needs to stay in middle until CCV fully fit and him and Ricky could look after the centre.
Looks like Kyogo needs to stay fully fit.
I wasn't expecting 3 or 4 in the door but I did expect more than one.
It's a big gamble a 3 million punt for a 60 million prize.
2.) 26 Jan 2024 21:16:08
Worse than a punt…. No real cover at Gk, LB and RB. No cover for Kyogo…. even when Asian cup over. Oh is slow, no composure, can’t get off the ground to jump, can’t hold the ball up…. and Ohhh can’t pick a pass.
I feel this is negligent, incompetent or complacent…. A punt is too generous ?.
3.) 26 Jan 2024 22:12:25
No real cover at RB? Ralston? You're just making things up now!
4.) 26 Jan 2024 22:45:33
That assessment of Oh is very harsh. One of his main attributes is passing he's in the 75% pass completion and is in the 72 Percentile for key passes per 90.
On average he has 4.36 shots every 90mins. In 45 games he's scored 13, within that 45 he has only started 6 times and scored 2 last minute winners, if he's playing every week in Scotland we'd be linked with him like we are Miovski or Shankland.
I don't think we could find a striker to sit behind Kyogo and still get high scoring stats with coming off the bench every other game for 15 mins max.
5.) 27 Jan 2024 05:21:43
I agree Belfast Bhoy. that's decent reading. A goal per 120 minutes for a striker that doesn't start is good.
6.) 27 Jan 2024 08:16:32
Bhoy 88
Nope…. Ralston is not good cover in my opinion. Puts in lots of effort but is easily exposed. If he was good cover he should have had more game time the past number of games as AJ hasn’t been that good.
Wish I was making it up.
BB
Oh is not trusted. only gets minutes towards the end of games when we are desperately chasing the game ( ( which has been too many this season) or when things are comfortable. Either way means he sees quite a bit of the ball in these circumstances.
The one mitigating factor, the same applies to Tony Ralston, is they aren’t really Match fit, as they don’t get a run of games. But that comes back up does the manager trust them.
Oh does try. Plenty of effort. He has and will score a few goals but he is clearly not trusted cover.
02 Jan 2024 20:12:07
Have Celtic got any friendly games during the winter break. I know they have pulled out of the warm weather training camp in Dubai, is there any other plans?
1.) 02 Jan 2024 20:41:27
I'd heard Brendan found Lenny's winter break itinerary from 2013. A weekend of booze broads and Blackpool are planned as a team building exercise. This is the real reason kyogo is missing the Asian cup.
2.) 03 Jan 2024 17:41:54
There have been many good Celtic players that we haven’t seen many transfer rumours . Usually the. rumours come from SMSM, spread by gullible Celtic fans are the sources of the rumours of Celtic players leaving . Normally the Rangers 2012 friendly media are trying to disturb the player and upset our fans.
02 Oct 2023 13:51:46
My Mondays are not the same without a baws and bovril podcast, when are they due back. Antony.
11 Jul 2022 13:45:16
Hey Ed, I won a competition and the prize was 2 tickets for any home celtic game this season (excluding rangers) and also 4 tickets for celtic Park tour, I have a season ticket already so I was wondering if there was anybody you knew on the site that can't get going to games due to finances that would be interested in them, they are more than welcome to them. I can pass the vouchers over by email. Thanks Antony.
{Ed007's Note - That's a brilliant gesture mate ?? I've taken a note of your email so anyone that wants to take up Antony's offer get in touch with me on here or email and we'll sort that out on the QT no probs.}
1.) 12 Jul 2022 12:26:12
Lovely thing to do fella, hopefully someone takes them of you be good for maybe someone to get for first time or take kids for first time. ?.

It's gestures like that makes us proud to be who we are well done Antony HH.
3.) 12 Jul 2022 13:19:29
@Anthony I would nominate you for Sainthood, but apparently that particular name already HAS a Saint.
So how about "Blessed mcmillana"
4.) 12 Jul 2022 14:15:58

6.) 12 Jul 2022 14:17:29

7.) 12 Jul 2022 15:13:41
It's not a problem I would rather someone got some good use out of them. The cost of living is hitting us all hard so we have to help each other in any we can. HailHail.
{Ed007's Note - I took your email out of your original post ?
8.) 12 Jul 2022 16:26:51
Fantastic gesture. I would like to put my name forward. I stay down in dumfries so to travel to games with both my kids nowadays is easily over £100 day. I can’t justify in the current climate. My boy is 13 now but has Asperger’s syndrome and ADHD so not always easy but he used to enjoy going to games with me and his papa. I understand there maybe more deserving people as I am not exactly on the breadline but to go to games is very much once a year and planned nowadays. Anybody else you think deserves it absolutely no issue. But as my granny would say you don’t ask you don’t get lol ?.
{Ed007's Note - If nobody's got any objections I think we have a winner...... nice to see you on as well mate. Do you still have the same email? If not drop me an email at ed007@live.co.uk.
And again, brilliant stuff from Antony ??
9.) 12 Jul 2022 16:58:45
I hope you and your boy enjoy them happy turnkey. I'll send the vouchers over to Ed and he can pass them on to you.

10.) 12 Jul 2022 17:18:08
Still same email ED obviously in the interests of fairness and all that I can provide proof of wee mans diagnosis etc. I still visit the site everyday love it. Not so much involved as the father in law decided to emigrate to OZ after my mother in law passed in 2019 and let’s just say he couldn’t cope without her so Kinda lost a bit of the magic kids no having papa so been to Celtic park since he left. Absolute big love to Anthony what a gesture indeed.
{Ed007's Note - Don't be silly bud, there's no need to prove anything just make sure you and your laddie have a great day ?
11.) 12 Jul 2022 17:35:43

{Ed007's Note - Thanks very much mate, we appreciate all the support and feedback. I'm hoping we'll be doing more than one a week for this season.
I'm looking at doing a Friday night show, a Sunday night show and maybe a midweek one or live match watchalongs for CL matches.}
29 Jul 2023 20:38:47
He rolled his ankle in training, should be OK for the weekend, possibly pay a part on Tuesday.

Ed how did city sign haaland if international window is open yet. Was he out of contract?
{Ed007's Note - He still won't be registered as a City player - the deal has all been finalised but he doesn't officially become a City player until 1st of July which was reported at the time if you go back and read articles on the day it was announced he was joining City.}
28 Aug 2019 14:45:52
Guy is a player I’ve watched him a few times, he’s arguably stokes best full back, he’s fell out with the manger and the stoke fans are not happy he’s been aloud too leave.

I watched it South Korea go through on penalties.
