Without even a token new signing the Celtic board have launched another raid on the cash of supporters as they promote a £50 Celtic TV package to watch five pre-season friendlies.It is fair to say that the Twitter announcement didn’t go down well with most of the replies commenting on…
The board know how I feel on Adam, that was the reason for bringing him in. He’s been a real catalyst for us, especially over the last few months.
I’m very lucky to manage such an amazing club and I want to be here for as long as I can and bring as much success as I can.
They have to mind their own business and they will but, to those of us on the outside, it seems there’s a golden opportunity to hammer home an advantage over their biggest rivals.
Signing three or four players at fees of £10m is viable with Celtic’s vast resources but it should be possible to identify players in the £6-8m price range that can make an instant first team impact.
Rangers have shown a capacity to win ugly, an essential requirement of any team with title aspirations. They’re now displaying steel and belief rather than just talking about steel and belief. Everything goes back to Clement, a manager of action rather than a talking shop.
Since the start of April Rodgers has relied on 11 players plus Adam Idah, on Saturday at Hampden many of those players were running on empty- the all went home with winners medals.

During an Irish podcast last summer English tore into Rodgers, slaughtering every aspect of his character and managerial record, it was the sort of chat best left in the BBC Scotland canteen or their Sportsound WhatsApp group.
We got banned for criticising him, some others people were banned for criticising him so clearly there is a tetchy team in the background who don’t really like anybody telling the truth about him. That’s me had my say on him.
