Friday, August 31

Rumours, rumours, rumours - lunchtime round up.


Afternoon on a very busy final day of the Summer Transfer window.


Everything written comes with the usual E-Tims line of 'It's all made up nonsense'


So far today the rumours I have seen are:


Deeks and Cash (Not Johnny) to Hibs - in return we get Mr. Murphy

Dela Bona (Unsure regarding the spelling - seen it spelt a few ways today) from Napoli to us or TFOD.

Maloney apparently seen on a BMI plane from Brum landing in Glesga last night, however he is at Aston Celtic training this morning (so my Villa colleague is tellimg me). As much as I'd love it to happen - I doubt it

Similarly Gudjohnson seen at Prestwick last night - blah blah blah. Doubt it

Bobo to Aston Celtic, Fulham or Derby.

Kenny to Fulham, Derby or Espanyol on a season long loan??

Fletcher from Man Yoo for £4m?????? I doubt it.

Elvis to Gretna or ICT

Jiri to EPL or Russia - one serious enquiry so far from him, no names mentioned.


As usual, many punters on the various blogs and msg boards are all claiming to have the 'inside' knowledge. Me - none. Nada.

Forza as Kevin would say

Thanks to my Bro Evil Rhum Baba from the Huddleboard who sourced the pic BTW. Presume it's been posted on the Huddleboard as well.

D'Artagnan is a major Dobber on the 'Fallow Fallow' site. Been sent a few of his posts from my bro, who lurks on there for a laugh and it is unbelievable what he and others spout off with.

Hail hail one and all

Breaking news!! Derby & Celtic agree a fee for Kenny Miller???

Apparently - so say some punters who have seen it on SSN.

Will update if I find out

Apparently the Beeb is reporting Naismith at Parkhead, Fletcher at Snake Mountain.

Additionally Beeb is officially saying that fee has been agreed between us and Derby for KM.

Lawson talking about Partick Thistle for a loan deal and O'Dea for Forest on loan to join their new signing BBJ.

They are trying to become Nottingham Celtic as Calderwood, their manager is a confirmed bhoy, plus Lennon and BBJ.

Claims that the SSM turned down a £10.5m bid for Skoosh from the Toon.

Swiss International striker Mauro Lustrinelli is mentioned a few times by different punters as a possible. Wilipedia link to him is interesting

Mauro Lustrinelli

Rumours from the BBC steamie.
The one I like is Jan Koller at Reading and Derby at the same time. Fletcher for Rangers, I laughed and laughed! :-)

Baldy..spell my name right.

I pilfered Bearphones from CM who had pilfered it from KDS.

And we can immediately discount the Lustrinelli rumour....Steak Bakes from Greggs? They're all very nice in the right time...but not today.

Oh and while I'm on the ball and remembering things....The 10 trillion pound bid for Brown, may in fact have come from Spurs....

James McFadden being linked to us on CelticMinded

and the huddleboard hasn't yet flicked the switch so all the lurkers, if you're lucky can still get in and read the latest rubbish us idiots can get away with. However, Sunday club will be applied shortly meaning all the low posters and lurking um.,..huns (Can I say that here?) will be hoofed into cyber oblivion leaving us to get on with it.

Hello Bro. Wasn't exactly sure where it came from, but was making the point it wasn't me. I'm not gonna get marked down for not using the Harvard system for citing sources am I?

Ian would know about that wouldn't you?

More info from the ET now

Quite enjoyed this actually - all in the name of quality research.

Jarosik staying put and the reported fee for KM is around £2.5m, is the latest gossip.

ET saying that Naismith going to Snake Mountain, Hemdani for the off and they have also signed some Norwegian 'Wonderkid'.

Right Home for the day now!
Will try and catch up tomorrow evening.

Hail hail one and all

No new signings but consider the reserve strength at Celtic Park. There is still a lot of players there. No excuses.
Come on the Bhoys in Paisley tomorrow!

Anonymous said...

Yep no excuses - I don't like them anyway.

Naisy confirmed at Eyepox.

Lawson (Ross C) and Gardyne (Morton) go on permanent deals.

Quinn (St. Johnstone) & Reid (Stirling Albion) on loan and Marc Nolan is released.

Disappointed that there is no cover or competition for Naylor. He's our only left back, not particularly on form and apart from Artur, Mick and Naka the only guaranteed starter in our First XI. There should have been cover for him and considering in at least three matches this year he has been the recipient of heavy challenges that have required treatment from the trainer, I feel we are particularly at risk here.

We have had the opportunity to bring in cover, won't accept excuses if we end up on a sore one with this decision.

Will try and do a match report tomorrow evening, but it will be a late post as I'm off to a party as soon as the match ends.

hail hail one and all

Come on the Hoops

Ps Good luck to all who have left us.

Just seen Ian's post last night on CQN - totally agree with everything you said.

TG at Everton as wellas KM and the others mentioned above.

Hope Marc Nolam sorts out his future (either in or out of football soon)

All the best

When the window shut i was disappointed that no cover was brought in, was also not suprised to hear the story concerning KM, GS and the SSM.

I haven't researched anything yet but is the story true about the maloney and other deals falling through due to SSM not splashing the cash?

Tell u the truth i canny be arsed reasearching it!!!!!

We should have brought in full back cover, up front i can handle, ma thoughts on KM were well documented and £3m for a player we got on a bosman and failed us last year, well....i would have driven him to Derby myself.

At least deek goes up the pecking order.

I think these transfer windows prove that those in the know that populate message boards know nothing...at least we here don't true and peddle rubbish rumours.

no mention of Ross Tokely, youse at the back:-)

Welcome Evil yes you can use the word h*n on here!!!!
