i'm glad he never played for them, i've always liked him.

agree with the bolded and if not best in the world he is easily the best English striker/goalscorer i have seen.

doubt he will be looking loads of money cos he owns Liverpool, probably just looking a game while he tries to pass his coaching badges.

Celtic Away Kit

seen this on the net for a while now and assumed it was not real , altho I still kinda think its not real but the sun posted it and claiming it will be revealed in the next few days

haha Hearts, dirty scummy shunts

btw the Fowler thing was just cause a few Motherwell fans posted on his twitter to come to the 'well and he said 'not my call'. So unless that gets McCalls attention I'm sure he wasn't even thinking about it so was just joking

Anyway rumours are we are close to getting the guy linked below, if so would be an absolutely brilliant signing for us

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adam_le_Fondre

the blog who produced the list i posted before with possible signing targets has posted the second part of the list of possible players...

American, Goalkeeper – Marcus Hahnemann – Without a possible solid experienced goalie in the line-up other than Zaluska and Forsters departure looking likely Hahnemann has been looked at considerably and may be offered a trial.

Swedish, Striker – John Carew – Now Jay Bothroyd is being touted to english prem teams, Carew is in the light, he offers again something a bit different and Celtic have been in touch.

English, Midfielder – Nigel Reo-Coker – A player who has lost his way, picked up form under Martin O’Neill at Villa and with a whisper in Lennons ear, Coker may be added as a squad player only, he would not be a direct replacement for any leaving players.

Danish, Striker – Nicklas Bendtner – Arsene Wenger has expressed a need for new life in his team and has targetted Beram Kayal and Emilio Izaguirre as Arsenal type of players, Wenger who is currently waiting for bids for Fabregas for extra cash, will offer a swap deal for Bendtner or the player “-see player below-” for either Kayal or Emilio.

Mexican, Striker – Carlos Vela – Will be involved in conjunction with any deals above if they go ahead.

Hungarian, Attacking Midfielder – Zoltan Gera – When Lennon ushers a clean out of the un-needed he will look to another midfielder option, with tons of premiership experience, European experience, flair and an eye for goal he has been looked at as a short term project ala the Ljungberg deal.

Nigerian, Winger – Victor Obinna – Would add pace and an eye for goal to the Celtic line-up but Obinna will look elsewhere first as he rates himself. Celtic could bid for him as Inter see him as surplus to requirements. Could cost between 4 and 6 million.

Brazilian, Left back – Dede – Looking for a chance to add to his silverware and having always expressed an interest to play abroad Dortmunds longest serving player has a few options including Celtic, at 33 it is questionable what he can offer but with bags of experience in lots of varied competitions the once capped internationalist may consider Celtic but has offers from Bundesliga teams such as Mainz.

Spanish, Midfielder – Marcos Senna – At 34 his best years are arguably behind him but he would add technical ability and bags of experience that Celtic lacked last season that could have got them over the line. Sennas agent has been touting him across the UK including Celtic, Swansea and QPR.

Brazilian, Winger / Striker – Bebe – A failed Alex Ferguson project? May be shipped out on a full transfer or loan. He has expressed an interest in a loan move to Scotland, abroad or even the championship. I cannot see Ferguson doing Celtic any favours unless Izaguirre is involved but he has been looked at by Celtic and is word is he is available.

Ghanian, Defender – John Pantsil – Strength, good positioning and bravery are all traits to his persona, would add even more experience to the Celtic defence with well travelled Dan Majstorovic. Experience is the key word Celtic need it to overshadow their rivals. Celtic know of Pantsils availability.

German, Left back – Christian Pander – German internationalist defender has expressed a considerable opinion to move to new shores, will only be signed if Izaguirre is transferred out.

Belgian, Goalkeeper – Brian Vandenbussche – Heerenveens goalkeeper currently considering his options, with the Netherlands Eredivisie one of the ‘ponds’ Celtics scout network has been watching, with some decent displays in the past season with scouts spotted at his matches he could see a move to Celtic as a big step up in his career.

Dutch, Striker – Danny Koevermans – On word of friend Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink, Danny has seriously considered the SPL or EPL to be his next move. He has heard stories of Celtic and even watched Celtic matches on TV, he would be a great addition to the squad but PSV may ask for Samaras with any deal.

Spanish, Goalkeeper – Manuel Almunia – Could resolve Celtics emerging goalkeeping void. If rumours of Shay Given are not true and he does not move the only high calibre goalkeeper left could be Almunia. He would relish in the SPL but he will consider other Premiership teams 1st, QPR and Aston Villa are considering moves.

second part is as bad as the first

Shane Long, Shay Given and a good CB would do for me.

I'd be delighted to get either Given or Long

Maybe some cover for Kayal and Ledley too,not a big fan of playing Brown in the middle.

Yeah its been confirmed alright

Looks more like a training top though

You will have to make do with Abdoulaye Faye.

If you tolerate Rix, then your children...

dirty bastard should never play football again.

My sources say Neil Lennon is keen on him

why post such crap Kev?

Just reporting what was I saw back in May

Speaking of Rix, he now works for the man that thinks disabled people did something bad in a past life. And I think they have both been on Sky of late. It is a shame their moral crusade stopped with Keys and Gray.

someone like Rix should be shunned by all (football) people everywhere, probably Hoddle for his ******ed views too, crazy that Sky still employ them. (not seen Rix on telly recently myself tho)

TBF (and I don't like to be) the Rix situation was somewhat different (yeah, I know, save it for the judge).

Gordon Smith to become Rangers Director Of Football

wonder what all the rangers fans who were mocking the idea that we were looking to have someone in a mentor role for Lennon will make of this.

they are all different situations, but all worthy of them never being heard from again (obv Hoddle to a lesser degree cos he's only a stupid ****).

I'm in no doubt that sick kunt will be sacked from Hearts early next week. I mean surely...

noticed that the odds of Bothroyd coming to Celtic have been slashed to 1/8 ... Everton 5/2 and QPR 3/1

really could not see us getting him due to the wages he could get elsewhere so there could be some value and pick up a small profit by betting against him coming , if its a losing bet id be happy as I would like to see him at Celtic

Read something that they are working on a deal at the minute, I reckon we could afford him easily with £20-25k pw and a decent signing on fee, he's a free agent remember.

I hope this means Samaras is away :fingerscrossed:

Oh well Hearts have stuck by that kiddy fiddler bastard. We play them at home 3rd week of season so I'll be heading through to that to contribute to the abuse we'll no doubt give him

I hope the abuse is loud and clear at every hearts game this season, pack of inbred ****s.

How or why would they keep him on is beyond me.
