The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

[T Fearon]

Celtic should take Chelsea's arm off,getting a few million for a 34 year old signed on a free transfer whose best days are long gone.

[Hectic]

Certainly merit in what you are saying but only if an upgrade is available. Otherwise why sell your first choice (by a distance) keeper.

[MoChara]

Rumours of Gordon going to Chelsea as a reserve keeper for them, apparently 2.5 Mill offered already.

Don't think Rodgers will let him go and it'll say more about the keeper himself if he were to leave and sit there in the dugout every week rotting away or play at Celtic every week and get great CL nights and major trophies...But i suppose the money talks

Thinking that myself it would say alot about the character of the man. If he wants away there's no point forcing him to stay but it'd be madness to sell him without a direct or even a real prospect replacement in the wings

[T Fearon]

Plenty of time to sort out a replacement between now and the summer for a 34 year old who has never really convinced.Celtic could see out the rest of the season with me in goal ffs🙄

Rodgers' point is that £3m would not buy anything close to a like for like replacement. Rodgers aims a shot across the bow towards Chelsea and their like who want to buy Celtic players on the cheap.

So record is broken...even though Celtic won 4-0 they were poor enough at times but i think it was partly down to the opposition, Hearts are pure dung. One thing has been clear this last few games is the teams are coming to play Celtic are trying the "knock it into them" approach but the ref is not doing too much about it.

I suppose the next 2 targets now are the treble and trying to go the season unbeaten...I really hope they can win the treble but going the full season unbeaten will be really tough probably more mental than anything as i'm sure it's hard to continue to perform every week knowing the title is in the bag.

[Hectic]

Yeah plus sometimes going for these sort of records can compete with the opportunity presented to give your youth a chance to shine, the latter perhaps being the more important in the bigger scheme. The record would be nice but better Celtic teams did not do it and not wanting to dilute such an achievement the environment also plays a part. Nonetheless it would be encouraging to see the management keep the team fully focused once the title is official.

[Main Street]

The title was official after 7 games.
Now the season is about a march onto invincibility.

Mixed feelings about this,the Lions achievement was far greater as they had a great Rangers team to deal with and the gap between them and the other teams in Scotland was not nearly as great in terms of finance and squad size.

[bennydorano]

Yip, I'd be of the same opinion.

The Lions achievement is only beaten on paper. The man on the street knows the reality. Anyway until a Celtic team wins the Champions League they can't be thought of in the same terms as the Lions. Jez, One of the best seasons and teams Celtic ever had was in 2003 and they won nothing that year!

[JimStynes]

So is Brendan a good manager then? I haven't been in this thread for a while.

[Main Street]

No, I can't enjoy Celtic's run of form this year because ........ they are not as good as the Lisbon Lions   
Brendan's side have not achieved much .....   because they are not as good as the Lisbon Lions 

Strike me dead on the spot for thinking Roberts was a ringer for Jimmy Johnstone 

You fools just willingly fall head over heels into the thread Troll's maze of contradictions.

[bennydorano]

Dont recall that type of trolling at all.
