Was talking to my dad last night and he was saying that he heard on the radio that Lennon has came out and said that we will have a striker in within the next few days.
I read today( in the gossip coloumn albeit) that we are interested in Santa Cruz on loan. Now I know that the possibility of this happening is a long shot but I think he is a cracking player and would be sensational up here.
Granted he has struggled with injuries in the past but he seems to have got over them.
If we are serius about this then I hope we can get the deal tied up asap.
Also herd the rumour about Ridgewell from B'ham another cracking player who I would like to see in the hoops.
Although, they way things have been going this season we'll probs end up with McDonald and Fox back on loan!

you want celtic to sign a world class striker on perm deal!!
world class is top of pile and your talking messi ronaldo rooney aguero tevez and co ....not a hope in hell
best we can hope for is a bellamy cruz type of player who is getting on a bit injury prone and has 1 or 2 years maz left in him
or
a young up and coming striker in gary hooper mould mabye 21 or 22 you would get for around 2 or 3 mil keep for few years and sell at a profit if they do well
im all for the 2nd one its the only way to operate these days and the boy at mk dons baldock or something is type of player we should take a punt on

I agree with you about Pavlyuchenko, he's good and Defoe and Crouch are pretty average. Think he would do well up here but I doubt you could afford him.
Fyvie could be very, very good. Its impossible to tell when a player is that young, but he could go to the very top.
I just hope we're able to hold on to him for a couple of years. Fulham have been linked with a £1million bid this summer, but if we keep him till at least the end of the season we could get much more than that.

Man City will have an auction come transfer window closing time...at least 7/8 players on wages ranging from £60/90k pwk that won't be included in their 25...
They and the players will take the best deals going

If he went for 1million I think it would be a travesty.
He should be given time to develop into a good player then sign a pre-contract with Celtic when his contract with A'deen is running out.
With regards to a striker I think we missed a trick by not enquiring about Carew he is the kind of striker we have been looking for, we need a John Hartson/Chris Sutton type player.

Bhoy,
I didn't mean super world class like Messi or Tevez,perhaps second tier world class !!
Agree that it would be best if we could find a Hooper type deal but one thing for sure,we need someone badly to add some oomph to our forward options otherwise things will slip away.
