maroonlegions Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Celtic to release Balde on free Celtic defender Bobo Balde Balde played just four games for Celtic last season Celtic will allow defender Bobo Balde to leave on a free transfer, if he can find a suitable deal elsewhere. The 32-year-old Guinea international has a year of his contract to run but has not been a first team regular under manager Gordon Strachan. Bolton were keen on the centre half in January but Balde picked up an injury at the African Nations Cup. This time last year, Balde turned down an approach from Sunderland, who were prepared to pay ?1.5m for him. Balde moved to Celtic Park from Toulouse seven years ago but has played just 14 times in the past two seasons. think he could be worth a wee chance.

Only a Game Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 On 8 to 10k a week yes. On the 20-25k a week he would be looking for. Not on your life !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Therapist Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 think he could be worth a wee chance. This was done to death a couple of weeks ago. Why not post on that thread instead of starting a new one about the thuhg? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loveofthegame Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Why do people keep suggesting this- the guys on ?30,000 a week at Celtic and rejected a pay cut to go to Sunderland (a Premiership club able to pay Premiership wages) a year ago. This will never happen. He is not worth what he would want and even with lower wage demands(which wont happen as he seems happy to sit getting splinters in his arse so long as he's getting his weekly ?30G's) i seriously doubt he'd consider coming to Tynie. [Note:not a personal attack on OP, just cant believe this guy keeps being banded about] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spellczech Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 eh, No. Been content to sit on his backside for 3 years living off his fat contract so he's hardly likely to be easily motivated. Plus hardmen like him suffer from wear and tear injuries once in their 30s from clattering people too much - Marvin Andrews was similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bighusref Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I will say the same I have said on each and every Balde thread, How many yellow/red cards would he get at Hearts? No thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Das Root Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 He's no longer a footballer, just earning a wage. Fair play to him. If the mhanks were silly enough to sign off on it then more fool them to be forking out close to ?1.5m pa for nothing!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamboAl Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 He and celtic have come to an arrangement. I'd be surprised if there wasn't a clause stopping him from joining a rival SPL club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah 'cause thats what will stop Balde signing for another SPL Club. It will be nothing to do with his salary demands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfie22 Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 The Guy is a 24 carat wage thief (we have too many of those as it is) Not to mention he is a liability as a defender, just another Bombscare we dont need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brownkg Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 jusat think. We could win the crime count league before Santa comes to visit:eek: At minimum he would get a card a game if we were ever daft enough to :- a:) contemplate it b:) accept his wage demand c:) do anything more than laugh this idea out the court Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think wherever he goes he will have to take a big cut but even with that, only us, apart from Rangers, would have a remote chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
