There’s interest in Adam but, obviously, no one can leave here unless we get players in to replace. It’s as simple as that.
After the late, late show of summer 2024 it seems that Nicholson is wanting to repeat that white knuckle ride with the added jeopardy of Celtic being involved in a Champions League Play Off.
It seems very clear that Celtic are being forced into the tightest of corners in the transfer window, one that is self inflicted with most of the problems encountered last summer being repeated.
Often in situations like that a club would be sparked into some token action, leaking news of transfer activity to a favoured source knowing that it will quickly go viral.
As a football manager and coach, I would want it now because I’m going into games here that mean everything for this club going forward. But if we don’t have it in the building now, then we have to work with what’s here.
All of that from a club that plays in the Jan Breyde Stadium with a capacity of just 29,000 seats. Less than half the capacity of Celtic Park, at every match Celtic are bringing in substantially more income than the Belgian side.
If they are being undermined they should highlight the problems or resign, if there is any truth in the claims that decision making rests on one NED the other Non Executive Directors are failing massively in their obligations.
There’s no need to spend £26m to roll over St Johnstone, Ross County and St Mirren. Celtic could do that for a fraction of the cash. The trouble is that Brendan Rodgers wanted to take things to a new level.
