Things have kicked off already with Celtic obviously feeling a little desperate after we hammered them.

Smith&Weston Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Lots of pre-contract opportunities. Would like to see Templeton, Crawford, Sibbald and perhaps Russell at Morton looked at as potential signings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
August Landmesser Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 That's a weird signing for Celtic. A 32 year-old, ineligible for the Europa league, so he'll be 33 in the champions league qualifiers, having played nothing but Scottish football for 6 months. Weird. That's Rodgers for you, though. A weirdo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

feedthefox Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 It's great that following that 4-0 pumping we gave tic plus our general improvement the transfer window is not quite the code red it was a few weeks ago, important but no need to panic buy.

Captain Canada Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 I think Walker, Novak, Martin, Smith-Brown, Noring, Stockton, (on loan) and possibly Hamilton (on loan) will potentially go in January. That would generate a bit of cash (Walker) and free up some wages to improve the balance of the squad. We'll definitely sign a left back, probably a keeper on a short term deal, a central defender and maybe a centre mid and a striker with a bit of pace. Five in and five out on permanent deals is the least we need to do. We're pretty one dimensional at the moment and it would be great to have individuals who could create more through outpacing defenders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fabienleclerq Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Bad move for Morgan, surely he must be a sign him and loan him right away job? Id like to see us bring in a striker, cummings would be rather funny! Stevie Mallen appears to be available and we need some width so a winger or two. Left back is essential. Tough window to get what you want though, it'll end up a couple of short term fixes until the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye well unless Wigan send up someone like Will Grigg for Walker there's no ****ing way we are letting all 3 of those leave in January. The fans love Lafferty. Problematic or not at the moment he is good for the club. He is one of the only players the fans have truly got behind this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am i that short sighted that I can’t fathom why a pay increase is worth wasting valuable years of the guys career just to say “I’m a member of the Celtic squad” ? As as far as I know Mallan isn’t available. he actually (eventually) made his debut for Barnsley yesterday so would be very surprised if they gave him a debut to punt him.

I think the opposite to be honest, the £200-300k from the cup tie won't have been budgeted for. Neither will the £400k 'solidarity' payment for Celtic's appearances in the group stages of the CL in addition to a possible £300k for Walker. I'd guess we'll see Walker, Smith-Brown and 2 or three others leaving with 4 or 5 new faces coming in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walter Bishop Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 I wouldnt be surprised to see Walker sign a pre-contract with Rangers.

As much as I like Smith, it was clear to see in the St Johnstone game at the weekend we need a natural left back. Not his fault but the play halted every time the ball got played out to him as he had to keep turning inside to his right foot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
