Would he have a good chance of getting a game though? Someone on here posted that they offered 100,000 quid for him. He wouldn't command a very high salary either. That's very small money even for Celtic so there would be a risk of them just trying him out and if he doesn't work out being happy enough to let him rot away it the reserves or on the bench.Quote:

Few appearances on the bench, only played in 2 games so far. Grand total of 4 minutes of playing time :rolleyes:Quote:

I was just looking at old Willo Flood threads to refresh the memory. This is interesting:

A few people, including Stuart Pearce, thinking he had a really good game.
Me:
" I didn't think he had a great game on Saturday but that's maybe down to the high standards he has set when I've seen him before."
I'd put him back in contention for the Ireland squad. Pity he's so small but he doesn't lack strength and has played right back quite a few times.
Everton confirm first signing of the transfer window (but don't get too excited)
Quote:
Everton boss David Moyes is finally breaking his transfer window duck - by signing Republic of Ireland Under-21 rightback Seamus Coleman in a £150,000 deal.
Moyes has beaten Celtic, Birmingham and Ipswich to win the chase for the 20-year-old Sligo Rovers defender.
Unlikely to happen IMO (Celtic captain and we are not as strapped for cash as Rangers who have to make a sale this window). O'Dea is currently 4th choice CB behind loovens and Caldwell, so he still has some work to do.Quote:

Championship side Blackpool have signed Manchester City midfielder Paul Marshall on a one-month loan deal.
The 19-year-old has featured regularly for City's reserves this season and could make his Tangerines debut against Crystal Palace on Saturday.
Blackpool assistant boss Steve Thompson told the club's website: "Every time we have seen him play, he has impressed.
"I am sure he will do well and we will be looking to extend the loan until the end of the season."
He added: "He has a sweet left foot and an excellent range of passing, he has a presence in the middle of the park."

Incidentally, if the transfer goes though, it will mean that Celtic will be able to put out a team, with 10 outfield players all fitting the "creative midfielder" description
Ferry
McGeady
Crosas
Brown
Flood
Mizuno
McGinn
McCourt
Maloney
Nakamura
Norwich Sell Midfielder Bell
David Bell leaves Norwich, sort of as a replacement for compatriot Jay Tabb, who may have been a replacement for compatriot Stephen Hunt.
who may join Wigan sort of a replacement for Kevin Kilbane...Quote:

Because the keeper got sent off and someone had to sacrificed but still....
You'd be disappointed.
That would be a sickener alrightQuote:

Don't think this has been mentioned yet but Richie Foran has moved on a free to Inverness. Played against Celtic yesterday.

It might be a case of clubs trying to save every pound
Or a chance for him to move somewhere else before this evening???Quote:
