    Good to see Tommy Wright in this morning papers saying that Sevco have no chance of signing O'Halloran unless they significantly increase their offer. Warburton's position of "we won't be held to ransom" is increasingly looking like "we don't have that much money"....

    Will Warbs call on the Great Bears or whatever they're called to give Tommy Wright a little visit if this doesn't go ahead ? With the usual respect, of course.

    Using 'Legally' should not prevent the Police from investigating (and charging whoever's responsible) for what is nothing more than an outright threat to ANYONE who dare venture an opinion which doesn't match theirs - what's next ? - a demand that certain books should be burned ??

    Seems like a potential owner, certainly the type. All he needs to do to get the 400,000 on side is set a deadline for the champions league win, get the plans in for the megasuperhotelstadium, promise to split the "old firm" by signing world cup stars and he's in.

    All he'll actually need is a suitcase for the cash when he wants to have a share "issue".

    Icke for the oiks. Believe.

    Don't know how he could be given that his counsel lied in court or is this classed as inadmissible evidence? If so, then the judge has set a precedence!

    No precedent set. Judge at the time told counsel it had nothing to do with this case.

    Judge is quite clear that SD's failure to serve the injunction on DK properly, and their decision not to cross-examine him on his evidence, are major factors in his decision.

    The "lying in Court" has nothing to do with the meat of the case itself.

    I meant to post this earlier but about a week ago the DR rolled out Andy Goram, that well known & respected pundit to comment on The Rangers' new pre contract signings. Of course AG talked them up then came out with this beauty, something like, " I know the boy Windass was in huge demand before he signed for, em, Accrington Stanley! A classic from oor Andy!
    Separately, good to see St J no longer maintaining a dignified silence & respectfully rolling over to The R's. Mind you its easy to hold firm when the offer is derisory, by all a/c's £200k & I'll take bets there's many conditions in there along the way.

    Ah, with 9 days left of the transfer-window, the start of the gentle 'Drip-drip' of info leaking through their media, that they might NOT be bolstering their squad to ensure they win the league - despite all their talk pre-January of doing so !!

    Warbs -I’m a big fan of lean squads'

    Especially when you have no choice, ya bawbag !!

    I love this, whilst all the other fans of Scottish Football will be making 'shock/horror - the Hun's are skint !' jokes over this, only ONE set of fans will actually swallow this p*sh and still be making - 'We trust in Warbs' chants !!. Truly, truly, the Hun-fans are without doubt, the biggest, collective set of dumb-*****s in this world
    and they have a club that reflects this fact !!

    Sign for the zombies in Glasgow or sign for Steve Evans? TBF that's a tough choice as SE is a roaster but as a Celtc man I imagine he took extra pleasure in this signing. I think the guy's very ordinary anyway but it helps deflate Sevco so that's good.

    Steve Evans is the roasters preferred choice of roaster. Which tells you all you need to know about this one.

    After a change of pants and no doubt, once again, reinforced by a bottle of buckle and near-moron IQ, that big, scary bear has emerged from behind it's mummy's sofa and is ready to take on all-comers -

    Seems I was wrong, he/she/it does consider that because the term 'Legally'was used, he/she/it considers itself 'Teflon' !!

    I hope and pray the police catch the cretin behind this as I can already see the report in the papers - 'Shug Mac*****wits last words when being taken down were - 'But .... but ...... but ,,,,,, ye cannae dae this, ah used 'Legully' so ..... ffs, ur ye's joking ...... MAMMY !!'

    I would be astonished if this sub-human can't be tracked down and banged up for a lengthy sentence. Then again, the wheels of justice turn slowly when forced to turn on their own.

    "Many" in Scottish football questioning Hibs/Stokes getting in the way of Rangers' entitlement to win the league this year...

    Expect this to get more sour when The Rangers fail to sign anyone this window and especially if Warburton's smaller, threadbare squad starts to drop points on the run in...

    Wonder if any of those many questioning Hibs putting up a challenge might expect referees to do their bit too?

    This was all I could read before I get to the pay wall. Who is this "many"? And what does it have to do with Celtic that we're "vying" with Rangers??

    This is absurd.

    RONNY Deila last night dismissed suggestions that Celtic were wrong to sanction Anthony Stokes’s loan move to Hibs – due to the fact the striker could help to prevent Rangers from winning promotion to the Premiership.

    Stokes, who has featured just twice for Celtic all season, has joined the Edinburgh club until the end of the 2015/16 campaign and is set to play for them in a Championship match against St. Mirren at Easter Road this afternoon.

    The switch has been queried by many in Scottish football because Hibs are currently vying with Rangers, who are just five points clear in the second tier table with 16 games remaining, for a place in the top flight.

    Securing the services of the Republic of Ireland internationalist should, despite his lack of game time in recent months, improve Alan Stubbs's side significantly.

    Peter Lawwell, the Celtic chief executive, last season admitted the Ibrox club’s absence from the Premiership costs the Parkhead club £10 million every financial year.

    Deila, though, believes the move will prove beneficial for both Stokes and Celtic and stressed that Rangers must win promotion on their own merit.

    “For me the most important thing for Stokes now is that he goes to an environment where he is wanted, where he will play and where he is happy so that he can get games and get his career on track again,” he said. “It will benefit him, it will benefit Hibs and it will benefit us.

    “You have to be good enough if you are going to go up and every club now is getting new players in during January. If Rangers or Hibs or whoever is coming up, then they have to be good enough to get into the top division. That is how I am thinking about it.”

    Deila has only played against Rangers once since he move to Scotland from Norway two years ago. His Celtic side beat their Glasgow rivals 2-0 in the semi-final of the League Cup at Hampden last season.

    He admitted that he would like to pit his wits against the Ibrox club in the Premiership in the future – but stressed he was unconcerned about what was happening in the Championship this term. “I want to have the best teams in the top division, but I don’t care who comes up,” he said.

    Meanwhile, Deila, who this week signed Danish centre half Eric Sviatchencko in a £1.5 million deal, stressed he could bring in another striker during the January transfer window following the departure of Stokes.

    However, he confirmed that Nadir Ciftci, the Turkish centre forward who has only featured sporadically since joining from Dundee United in the summer due to the form of Leigh Griffiths, was still in his thoughts.

    “It’s about getting the right ones,” he said as he prepared for the Premiership meeting with St. Johnstone at Celtic Park this afternoon. “If they are not then we won’t bring in anyone else. We have three strikers at the club, but if we find someone who we think will make us better and there’s a possibility to do it then we will look at doing it.

    “It’s tough when you have one scoring all of the time. Nadir (Ciftci) came in the summer and needs time to adapt, like all of the players coming in, it takes time. He has shown his potential in some games, like Hearts away, but there is a lot more to come from him.

    “We work every day in training and talk to him to get the best out of him. It’s a big change for him coming here, like it was with Gary (Mackay-Steven) and Stuart (Armstrong)."

    Always said he was a great guy

    There's a great line in there about missing out on a player to a basket case of a club. Made me laugh.
