The new design merges tradition with innovation as the modern shirt that will be worn by the likes of Leigh Griffiths, Moussa Demb\u00e9l\u00e9 and Scott Brown in the season ahead features the latest New Balance Dry technology, providing maximum comfort with a moisture wicking fabric that helps keep players cool and dry whilst wicking sweat from the body, making it fast drying.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\nStill, at least you still get your moisture wicked.<\/p>\n
Whats happened here-and they did ask us back then at the meeting what we thought of a pink top-or a blue one, which also seems to have sort of arrived, is they’ve decided on pink and then found the most tenuous of links to justify it.<\/p>\n
Still, like I said. I’m glad New Balance got the deal. Three tops a year at sixty quid a go for three years equals a saving of \u00a3540 for anyone not stupid enough to buy one.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Kolo Toure joined Celtic at the weekend, fortunately before the new top was announced, which may also explain the delays in Scott Sinclair arriving, shane duffy hesitating-although the Etims twitter account fully explained that one-and Joe Allen still thinking about where he wants to play his football.<\/p>\n
Toure , noted for his bravery and determination on the pitch has moved to Glasgow despite anti-Ivory coast being prevalent amongst local opposition support, and he deserves a round of applause for ignoring it.<\/p>\n
Ivory coast, as we know, has a long history of disassociation with the protestant culture, and for this their flag was ceremomiously burned in Belfast, along with those of Poland, the Palestine and the Vatican City<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The on -off-off again saga behind the possible transfer of Scott sinclair to Celtic rumbled on. He’s supposed to join today,though he might not.<\/p>\n
Whereas with the Shane Duffy deal, where Peter Lawwell allegedly forgot to send in a formal offer, here it appears that he doesn’t want to offer them what they want, and it looks like a bot of a power struggle is developing between Lawwell, who used to run the team, and Rodgers, who thinks that’s what he was hired for.<\/p>\n
Rodgers will really piss Lawwell off this week, when he hands James Forrest a new deal….Lawwell, of course, was the man who took the original offer away from the table before forrest even had a chance to discuss it with family, which probably explains why he hasn’t been one hundred per cent since.<\/p>\n
For all the fuss, and all the transfer gossip, which has lead to a bit of panic amongst supporters that Celtic are dallying, its only July. hindsight is a wonderful thing, and if the hoops do exit the Champions League over the next month or so, we need to rememeber that players of the calibre we’d like will wait and see how we get on before joining.<\/p>\n
And there’s over a month left of the transfer window for them to pick who they want.<\/p>\n
Joe allen, for instance , has been told his club have accepted an offer of \u00a314m from Stoke city, and on Radio Stoke this morning, boss Mark Hughes said he was waiting for the player to make up his mind.<\/p>\n
Like he’s waiting to see how another club gets on.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In a bit of a rush this morning, as I had a fairly busy weekend so, a quick run through and a few thanks before i go.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
My son and i started out from Stoke on Friday night, and when we boarded the train for Cetral at Crewe, it turns out some of the Leicester CSC were on board, so we joined them for a chat.<\/p>\n
Their club, like ours in Stoke and several others in the midlands, are suffering from a fall in membership, and the age demographic is similar to ours in that maybe ten years down the line there’ll be no-one left…<\/p>\n
We can all do our best down here, but in order to get the kids and youngsteres travelling again, Celtic needs to help us out here.<\/p>\n
Then, after staying over in Dunoon, a quick visit to the Greenock CSC -who have a splendid surrounding in their club building in which to while away the hpours, and again, a big thanks to hughie for picking us up in Gourock and taking us down for a beer.<\/p>\n
Then it was off to Malones, to put names to face and faces to names -and a great few hours that was-until my leg and my son’s liver simultaneously packed up, and i figured it would be a good idea to get him home before the wife blamed me for losing him somewhere, whiuch she would have done.<\/p>\n
It was great to meet up with and talk to the regukars, and astonishingly, not one of them turned out to look anything like i had imagined they would be.<\/p>\n
Though I must stress i don;t spend a great deal of time imaginging what they look like.<\/p>\n
Anyway, we must do it all again soon.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
right, got to go. The dug needs her boosters and i’m due at the vets in minutes five.<\/p>\n
It’s all go, you know.<\/p>\n
