A target for European clubs, Fernando Henrique completes two months without playing for <\/em>
\nGr\u00eamio A 20-year-old was recently sought out by Celtic from Scotland. <\/em>
\nHe hasn’t received chances yet with Mancini <\/em><\/p>\nThis , if true, means that the scouting network is actually doing some scouting beyond Dudu Duhans client list, which can only be a positive.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
\n
\u00a0 Derby county defender Lee Buchanan is also claimed to be on the radar, although he hasn;t performed very well since that was revealed. Largely because he probably found out that it’s actually another Derby defender who has been watched….. we’ve already mentioned him, and if you weren’t listening it’s your own bloody fault.<\/p>\n
\n
\n
\u00a0Daizen Maeda , a prolific Japanese striker has been cited as being at various stages of a move to Celtic, including claims that the deal has already been done. If true, that would give Celtic another highly rated striker which fits in with Ange’s philosophy if not the clubs wage bill.<\/p>\n
\n
\u00a0The Record has said that Danny Mandriou of Shamrock Rovers, a creative midfieder is the subject of interest from the hoops, and with Dermot Desmond having a significant say in matters with the Dubliners, then it’s possible.<\/p>\n
\n
\u00a0Then again, given the papers track record for lazy journalism, it’s also possible that it’s just lazy journalism.<\/p>\n
\n
\n
\u00a0What’s perhaps more interesting, and surprising, is that the board appear ready to continue to back the rebuild, and with the sale of a few fringe players on the horizon, then it’s possible the net spend won’t cause any of them to leap out of the window in panic.<\/p>\n
\n
\u00a0Though I suppose hope does spring eternally.<\/p>\n
\n
\n
\u00a0The pivotal point of the season is now upon us, with the semi final of the League Cup this weekend.<\/p>\n
\n
\u00a0Celtic face holders St Johnstone, who proved to be a difficult opponent recently, but the wide open spaces of Hampden mean that the hoops will be able to create a bit more space simply becuase there’s more space available.<\/p>\n
\n
\n
\u00a0The Perth side will be without Stevie May, who is a bit of a local hero, and although it’s been described as a blow to their plans, I don’t remember them using a forward in their last tactical approach to a game with Celtic.<\/p>\n
\n
\u00a0And with their plan almost certainly to be to play for penalties after extra time, I would have thought it wouldn’t make much difference.<\/p>\n
\n
\u00a0 Which reminds me, Celtic aren’t great shakes in that department, and it might be a good idea to get a wee bit of practice in over the next day or two.<\/p>\n
\n
\n
Following that, there’s the return game against Real Betis, who are a single point ahead of Celtic in the Europa League group. Whilst their qualification isn’t certain, Celtic’s isn’t easy either.<\/p>\n
\n
\u00a0Should Celtic beat Betis, a head to head would, if all else is equal, have seen Celtic progress, but thats now virutually impossible given the draw that Betis got with Leverkusen.<\/p>\n
\n
\n
\u00a0 A win would put the hoops ahead on points, meaning that should Betis , as expected, beat Ferencvaros, a draw in Leverkusen would send the hoops through.<\/p>\n
\n
\n
\u00a0So not virtually impossible, but maybe unlikely.<\/p>\n
\n
\n
\u00a0Then again, come the day of the game…..at least it won’t be dull.<\/p>\n
\n
\n
\n
\u00a0With Steven Gerrard having left Ibrox after a supposedly whirlwind two days….<\/p>\n
\n
![\"aye](\"https:\/\/etims.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/aye-ok.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
\n
\u00a0…things at Ibrox seem to be in a little bot of confusion.<\/p>\n
\n
\n
\u00a0The gullibillies have blamed Gerrard for running out on them, and not seemed to notice that the board at ibrox did very little to persuade him to stay.<\/p>\n
\n
\u00a0Maybe it was the promise of compensation, a sum of around \u00a32-3m depending on who you believe, that actually mades Gerrard their most valuable asset.<\/p>\n
\n
\u00a0No player has ever left “rangers ”\u00a0 for as much as Villa forked out for the manager, and whilst one has to question their wisdom, it’;s just behind the couch loose change for them.<\/p>\n
\n
\u00a0At Ibrox, it’s a significant windfall that could see the club survive a few extra weeks.<\/p>\n
\n
And it’s four less wages to pay…..which may well explain why he was allowed to take everyoine with him without a fuss. Things are bad on the other side of the river, and christmas may well be cancelled…as might a few other things..<\/p>\n
\n
\n
\u00a0At least until January when Gerrard transfers the money in Villa’s account into the one at whichever shady offshore institution holds the “rangers ” monies….and receives as many from Morelos , Kent, Paterson and Hagi in return as he can get away with before the Birmingham Mail runs with the<\/p>\n

\u00a0Stop Taking The Piss you Slippery Scouse Git<\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
headline.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
With Gerrard away, and the Ibrox board looking for a replacement that isn’t Barry Ferguson, several names have been mentioned, but none of them have hung around long after looking at the financial affairs of the club.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
For the moment, the team will be managed and coached by four gallant pioneers, who have stepped into the breach to hold the fort.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
One of them is Colin Stewart, a reserve coach, who bizarrely went on a Twitter blocking spree of any Celtic fan he could find.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
For the life of me, I can’t think why.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Oh, wait….<\/p>\n

It seems the campaign to remove bigotry, racism and hatred from the stands is working after all.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
\u00a0They’ve moved it into the dressing room.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
And so to our caption competition…. last time we had this….<\/p>\n
