And it would be "The Mack", with the k.


If he treated his football career like he did his community service, Mark Morrisson would send along somebody else in his place wouldn't he?  I wonder if he can think of a big black bloke from Leicester shit enough at football not to give the game away.....


Ha ha ha, very good.


Well that made me chuckle !!

Quote from: "julzdyer"
my opinion is that if Milner leaves then we will sign these 3 :

Tranquillo Barnetta from Leverkusen
McGeady from Celtic and
Mbark Boussoufa from Anderlecht

there seeme to be strong interest in all 3


Does there?  Aren't they all a bit similar?  I hope we sign one attacking midfielder but three would be too many.  Of the three, Barnetta looks the best to me.  

McGeady = meh.  Hardly pulling up trees in Scotland so is either not very good or coasting along.
Boussoufa = too small, but given time could be great.

From the BBC Gossip page:-

Celtic insist that winger Aiden McGeady's failure to travel to the United States was because of a thigh strain and not a pending transfer. (Daily Express)

Doesn't mean it's to us, but it looks like the player is leaving Celtic!


I've heard the same thing. We are the only English side showing any interest and Celtic are inclined to sell as they need to fund their rebuilding.

£6million is the fee I've heard mentioned.

Even the Mirror point and laugh at the shit Tribal Football come up with.

That having been said, let's hope this is one of the 1,246,879 darts they through at the board this summer that actually hits the bullseye!

£10m was reported in the papers, which is just ridiculous.  £6m is getting nearer to the point where I might say he's worth the gamble, but with Bently being quoted at £8m I know which deal I'd prefer us to do!

Bloody hell I don't want McGeady, and certainly not at £6M.  Nowhere near good enough IMO.

Not seen much of McGeady at all, but I'd have thought a winger is pretty much the last position we need strengthening in - same reason I wouldn't want SWP. What we could do with is a right-sided midfield player who gives us a bit more defensively - like Milner did when we used him there - but that's not McGeady. With Young, Downing and Albrighton we don't need another winger... surely?

Fuck Mcgeady. I dont want him or any other bang average benchwarmers. Does MON never get the sodding message? Hes already tried buying players like that ie Maloney and routledge. why not spend the money on gio dos santos or hleb if he wants a winger. Or infact fcuk the lot of em and pay for henry for a year. Free transfer who's gonna be wasted in america.

I fear im going to hate every transfer window while weve got this little penny pinching, bingo playing irishman at the helm.
