Rangers have the early kick off tomorrow. This will put pressure on us to perform! I understand the manager says he doesn't look at results but assume the players do!

Hopefully we have no hiccups n destroy Dundee. 1 of our 2 away games and they will not make it easy for us.

Hope we start fast tomorrow, it's something we've not done much this season. Settle the nerves with a goal and then kick on and start taking our chances.

I'm expecting 5 hard games in the league.

The officials will be doing everything they can to stop us and we need to be good enough were we make that impossible for them to do.

Following on from my post earlier HERE is the link if anyone wants to donate anything towards our collection for Richie and his family.
As I said, there's no pressure to give anything but anything donated will be greatly appreciated. HH 🍀🙏🏻

P.S. I've posted this on the main rumours page as well as this will move down quickly on here.

I read an article in Celtic News about the striker Kvistgaarden being available for between ÂŁ6m - ÂŁ10m
then I saw he is out injured with a knee problem
In this Tim's eyes this deal is a NO NO
Firstly because of price
Second because of this knee injury
Third surely for that kind of money, if we spend that, there must be better value strikers out there.

{Ed007's Note - I'd imagine any chance of signing Kvistgaarden ended when Baby Lawwell left. The guy is nowhere near the level we should be looking at imo and the Brondby are chancing their arm if that is the kind of fee they're looking for.}

Is Kvistgaarden really any better than what we have already or even Miovski that we could probably get for around ÂŁ5m if we throw in a player.
We should really be looking to get better than we already have to give us any slim chance to progress in the CL.

{Ed007's Note - I'd rather keep Kyogo as our main striker than take the punt on a risky project like Kvistgaarden.}

Regarding wee des' comments with regards to referees this will only get worse the deeper into the split we get especially next week against little sevco will be allowed to kick he'll out of celtic players and the minute a celtic player tackles them then the scenario will be roll about give the foul, followed by a yellow card and Niasmith jumping about demanding more . No lying down next week baby sevco and officials will be fully up for it.

With the sad news yesterday of Richie (ArrowH) passing away it got me thinking about the people on this site.
First of all our ED007 deserves massive praise because he has built up a CARING COMMUNITY on here.
I can testify personally with all my own health issues that the number of people wishing me good health and a speedy recovery, really did cheer me up.
I know other posters on here have had their health troubles and to a man our Celtic posters have rallied round.
From my own perspective I want to thank ED007 and ALL the posters for including us all in their good wishes
Celtic Rumours a site like no other
HAIL HAIL.

{Ed007's Note - Thanks very much for that, Tim but as I keep saying, all I do is click a mouse and push a few buttons. It's all the posters that make the forum what it is and it is a brilliant wee community we've built up on here.
I've had a few messages from people offering to help out with the cost of flowers for Richie's wife (one poster sent me money as soon as he read about Richie to put towards flowers) and when I said they aren't very expensive 1 or 2 said we could just give his Mrs any money leftover to put towards a headstone or that.
I will put a link up later this evening for anyone who wants to donate something towards it and as always there's no pressure on anyone, don't be leaving yourselves short in these tough times. It'll be my own personal PayPal and I have no probs showing it to someone like yourself Tim, JFP, Paul or Ter to keep it all kosher.
It seems the quickest way to do it - any other suggestions are welcome - as JustGiving can take weeks before you can lift any money out.}

Good idea about headstone Mark they can be expensive and the engraving costs a fortune also
I will look out for your link.

The celtic fans have been put through the ringer this season mainly due to not being able to kill teams off. so come on get the first and finish them off with a 2nd toot sweet instead of hanging on in the dying mins. and the Dundee manager is suspended so is in the Stan hopefully that's a wee help as well.

The players have to approach EVERY remaining game with passion and desire and maintain concentration and focus for 90 or 98 minutes whatever the case may be. No matter the opponent, the officials or the venue. The manager and most of the players have been there before.

We can and will win all our remaining 5 after split games . If we go about them as onceabhoy4 states above . The game that is coming up next is the most important game of the season. Enthusiasm and concentration by every Celtic player for how ever long the Sevco refs demand us to play . We have to concentrate to make sure they can’t attack our back four on a one to one basis . Maybe we should try to finish matches with both Calmac G and Iwata playing . Even though we know what to expect from referees and VAR official all of us supporters need to let them hear our disapproval no matter how small a group of supporters in the stadium.

This summer it looks like Celtic will have no goal keepers.

Hart is retiring, bain is out of contract and siegreist is expected to be sold.

I will reserve my comments until the end of the season.

If bain is happy third choice a deal could be done unless one of the home grown kids are ready but then you lose development as they arein squads fort the saKe of quota.

Bain signed a new deal not long ago.

I am sure that BOTH Bain and Siegreist have 2 years left.

Need to bring in a top quality keeper, i would then have young Tobi as backup and give him some cup games. Have Bain in as 3rd choice and get rid of Benji.
I'm personally totally disappointed big Benji never made it as I thought he was a very good keeper when we signed him.

Id can see hart signing an extension.

Some of the players touted for sale in the summer in the press. I'm like that. who isthat. that's when you know the squad is a mess.

I hold my hands up and say I didn't believe this when I read it first and had to go and check it from another source . Of all who enter Football Academies at 9 yrs of age only 1% ever sign Professional Football forms . Less than half the 9 yr olds are still with an academy at 14 . Important to note clubs running academies have more players providing opposition to the players they may have some expectations as they need this backup to develop those who may have a chance.
Worldwide out of 250 billion 130,000 make it to Professional level.

There are even some of that 130,000 where you struggle to believe how they made it. I suspect of the majority who 'drop-out', many have great ability and talent, but are rejected because of issues with stature, attitude and application, discipline, fitness and mental strength and of course like any other entertainment industries, it all boils down to someone's opinion where faces might not easily fit.
I don't think there are many of us who grew up with players with great skill and potential, who actually made the grade.

Maybe the academies are over coaching the kids and stifling their natural abilities, and throwing the babies out with the bathwater and keeping the ones that fit the profiles of what they perceive as a player of the future.

 1


25 Apr 2024 18:55:33
I'm sure that does happen aindoh. Can you imagine Pele, Maradona, Jinky, Best, Ronaldinho etc etc in a Youth Academy? Their talents would have been stifled. Mediocre players can be coached to improvement. Real naturals are special and they embrace and light up the game with their skills.

My son’s under 10s at Queens Park. I wouldn’t say the training was strenuous, but it’s very much the coach will explain a drill once and they’re expected to pick it up quickly. I’d also say it’s heavily based on attitude and work rate they’re expected to play, at that age in every position bar goalkeeper, and if they’re hurt they’ll never be coddled they’ll be expected to get up. In my eyes makes sense because you need to be ready for that physicality. I also had to fill out forms about my own height ect and they’ll look at parents to see what height and build they are to determine the kids. He’s also had to do cognitive tests on the computer, so a 4 by 8 grid will show on the screen with arrows point different direction, it’ll flash off then flash on and he’s to pick the arrow that’s changed direction. I could barely do it. The standards are just very high and they no longer look at age groups under the age of 12 unless they’re exceptional talent.

Sounds like Queens park might be throwing the babies out with the bath water.
