Blondi Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 A decent fee? 250K max I reckon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kent_white Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Cheers for letting us develop your career from the age of seven, then going on strike about 5 games into your career before trying to get your contract annuled. #nicebloke Still be a good player though - if he gets played regularly.

Marc505 Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Definitely time for a day or two off twitter. "We've been lied to again!" "If FV can't hold onto him what hope do we have" "Hope he breaks his legs in old firm" Meh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted June 29, 2019 Site Supporter Share Posted June 29, 2019 Celtic have agreed to pay more than they had to. Not too bad a result I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traf Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 8 minutes ago, tomski said: I have a suspicion this won’t be a lot Rumour (yes, I know)...but if he'd gone to an English club, we'd be entitled to 250-300k, elsewhere it's 100k. Apparently Celtic have "been honourable" in paying the English rate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freds dad Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 He might as well have gone and played in Bolton Sunday League Div 1 with the standard of Scottish football. Lets hope we added a sell on clause. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burndens Bogs Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Good luck to him i say. Can't blame the kid for moving to a massive club + getting guaranteed wages for 4 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enzo gambaro Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Meh. Remember when Joe Riley was the next Cafu? Some tit on Facebook is talking about ‘mini Nedved’ being our last hope. Fuck me, did I miss a hundred games? Bye. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Casino Posted June 29, 2019 Moderators Share Posted June 29, 2019 From the bits we have seen, he's got something about him mentally, he's got a decent left foot But, he's small and could well be made of glass It's a decent punt for Celtic and time will tell whether it was decent for us I honestly don't see him playing 20 games for them next year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Spider Posted June 29, 2019 Site Supporter Share Posted June 29, 2019 I didn’t know he was a scouser. That’s made this a bit easier. Moving to Scotland rarely makes anyone a world beater. He’s fucked up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eavesy Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Biggest disappointment in all of this for me is connell was one of the few players I looked forward to watching. he was one of the few positives last season and genuinely got me off my seat and optimistic we might do something good. he might not have had the skill of jay jay or the might of super kev but he had heart and desire to get on the ball. That coupled with excellent distribution and an eye to switch play was amazing considering who he was playing under. the sight of him telling the whole team to rally on when we’d conceded was uplifting. And this was an 18 year old lad. He could have been the poster boy for all our young fans. Which we do desperately lack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Casino Posted June 29, 2019 Moderators Share Posted June 29, 2019 For every good pass there was a bad one And he's weak But he's a kid Like I say, no idea how good he is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leyther_Matt Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 As I posted in another thread the other day, the writing was on the wall when, even after breaking in to the first team, he was only given a third year scholarship rather than getting him on a pro deal. Yes it meant we could get rid without a financial burden if he turned out to struggle next season, but it also meant there was always the possibility of him going elsewhere for nowt. Personally I don’t think Celtic is a great move for him football-wise as they rarely blood young kids unless they’re extra special like Tierney and tend to look to buy-in the finished article. Even if he is loaned out to another Scottish club as I expect will be the case, standard is at worst comparable to if he’d have stayed with us in League One.
