According to new outlets Celtic are going all out to sign Kieran Bowie his club Verona want £13million a cannot wait to see Celtic bid of £5million rejected 😂 Celtic are never paying £13million for Kieran Bowie



09 Jul 2026 19:03:01
There is some bad rubbish going on in the background at Celtic these days.

They're in absolute turmoil from what I can see.

I think us and Hearts will battle for the title.

07 Jul 2026 00:37:36
Here's one for y'all.

If Celtic sell Engels, might they go for Ferguson.

I've heard his dad say he's a massive Rangers fan, I've also heard him say he's isn't at all bothered by Rangers? So don't know which one is true?

Celtic could potentially offer him more (salary, CL etc) with the exception of the arm band.



07 Jul 2026 05:59:47
The constant will he won't he threads every single day 🥱 would spontaneously combust.

07 Jul 2026 13:09:52
Zikos, let him go where he wants, it's his career.

07 Jul 2026 13:58:47
I don't think Zikos plans on stopping him going where he wants. All he wondered is if Celtic could go for Ferguson.

07 Jul 2026 15:26:20
Zikos can't see that, mate. Don't even think Celtic would bother.

07 Jul 2026 17:22:26
Even if they would, it isn't their market. They sell for £25M and buy the next couple for preferably £4-5M and develop them (Engels was the outlier). They won't pay the same level of fee for the replacement, and it seems to be working for them.

07 Jul 2026 18:23:45
Tav, I will tell you, as I told the op, let whoever bids for him bid for him. It's totally up to Ferguson where he goes, be it Celtic, Brechin, Liverpool, Bayern, whoever. It's still up to Ferguson where he decides to go, from offers made.

07 Jul 2026 18:25:20
Sufi's, when did Celtic qualify for the Champions League? I must have missed that one.

07 Jul 2026 18:43:26
They haven't yet, but at least they have the chance to. 🤷 Btw, we haven't qualified for the Europa League either. But, if Celtic lose in qualifiers, I understand they drop straight in.

07 Jul 2026 19:02:18
Angus, more chance of hitting the sun with a snowball imo.

07 Jul 2026 19:25:47
Angus, I thought we had already qualified for Europa League due to our co efficiency ratings, could be wrong, mind yae.

07 Jul 2026 19:40:35
Fraser, we are in 3rd qualifying round and if we lose that then fall into Conference League play off. Celtic in play off round of ECL; if they lose, drop into league phase of EL.

Agree re chances, but they unfortunately still have a chance. Seeded club in their draw as well.

07 Jul 2026 19:45:08
Gus, cheers for the info mate.

07 Jul 2026 20:23:30
Celtic will make Champions League this season.

07 Jul 2026 21:50:02
I don't you've read the original post or my post 🤣 Don't worry, I will allow whoever wants to bid for him to bid for him and allow him to choose an offer he wants to choose.

All the op said was would Celtic go in for him? I fail to see anyone who has said it's anyone but his decision where he goes?

07 Jul 2026 22:09:25
Tav, exactly my point.

07 Jul 2026 22:15:49
Ah right okay yeah fair enough, just don't discuss potential transfers because whoever bids for them will bid for them and it's the player's choice who they choose. Apologies. 👌

07 Jul 2026 22:15:52
Tav, but the OP was all about whether Celtic would go for him and not whether he would go to Celtic if they did. For him to have that decision, Celtic need to want to sign him. And, as they never pay stupid money for players, the answer is no. That was how I read it, hence my answer.

07 Jul 2026 22:20:36
Tav, nae bother.

07 Jul 2026 23:10:18
I know Angus, that's what my first two posts say, Zikos is wondering. Your answer of no is exactly what my answer would be.

Fraser just started to let me know that Ferguson will choose who he wants to transfer to, and that clubs that bid for him will bid for him, which is great insight, and I wasn't aware this is how transfers worked.

Learn something new every day.

08 Jul 2026 00:02:33
Tav, yea only learn if yer paying attention.

08 Jul 2026 09:08:32
Cheers, Tav. Sorry, misread the post in my haste to answer. Glad you now know how transfers work though. 😉 Only thing I would add to it is that there is a clause in every transfer that there needs to be chat about it in a forum before it happens. 👍

09 Jul 2026 12:50:02
Lewis is Rangers daft and if he came to Scotland, it would be Ibrox.

09 Jul 2026 16:59:46
Coopers, he may well be, but he went to Aberdeen as that Rangers daft lad because, like every footballer, he wants to play at the highest level possible, and at that time it was Aberdeen.

09 Jul 2026 17:40:35
Yeah, he went to Aberdeen, Angus, and if he comes to Scotland, he will come to Rangers.

09 Jul 2026 17:54:50
Correct, Cooper.

09 Jul 2026 20:53:13
If, the biggest two letter word in the world. 🤷

10 Jul 2026 16:35:19
Angus, he ain't signing for Celtic, he comes back to Scotland, his only destination is Ibrox, so clearly I'm agreeing with Cooper.

04 Jul 2026 12:25:53
Big interest in italy for kieron Bowie for 10m from other Italian clubs. Scotting boys seem to be thriving in italy.



07 Jul 2026 20:27:44
No worth it 4 goals in 14 games was off the boil last bit at Hibs anaw.

07 Jul 2026 23:33:48
Rfc22, I was thinking that myself, mate. He's not set the heather alight as far as I'm aware.

Maybe a bit of Italian money laundering going in here again, lol.

Strange one this.

08 Jul 2026 09:13:16
Scoring 4 goals in a struggling Hellas Verona team would be considered a strong return though; almost 1 in 3. He has played well individually despite the team's struggles and has adapted well to the physical requirements of the Italian playing style.



The fact a couple of teams are interested means you then have a bidding war. If Hellas look to sell, I imagine, like all clubs, they want to make a profit, as the player wasn't bad, just in a poor team.

08 Jul 2026 12:52:51
It's a fair point Angus makes. 4 in 14 for Verona is actually good going when u think about it.

His overall play is more likely to have been the biggest sign of why clubs want him though.

04 Jul 2026 09:28:13
Just reading online post about Dundee and there friendly and the uproar by fans some fans not all but this is happening to football over the world now things have become so political teams can't play teams from certain countries fans taking flags in to matches to support some countries against others a war has nothing to do with football what happened to going to a game and just enjoying it no politics whatsoever just good 90 minutes of football

{Ed001's Note - yeah why care about genocide? Are you this self-centred and pathetic you can't understand the issue? Or do you just think murdering kids openly is not that important?}



04 Jul 2026 10:30:47
Given that Dundee has been officially twinned with the Palestinian city of Nablus since 1980, and the club has a long standing tradition for supporting various charity foundations in the region, it does seem to be an absolutely bonkers decision.

In more general terms, I'm never sure where I stand on the concept of keeping sport and politics separate.



If I was being completely honest, I'm a walking contradiction. Where the politics align with my personal values, I'm all for it. Where they don't, I'm completely against it.

{Ed001's Note - you can't keep them out of it, everything is politics. The price of tickets even is politics, so it is impossible to keep them separate.}

04 Jul 2026 11:18:58
On the question of politics, more specifically politicians, I loathe involvement of people like Swinney, Starmer, Carney etc., looking to piggyback on the feelgood factor of national tournaments to boost their ratings.

Can't stand their faux enthusiasm, trite sound bites, and staged photo ops.

Sickening, really. It stains the game for me. They're like a skid mark on a fresh pair of whites. Would be in favour of banning politicians from attending and commenting on these tournaments. They ruin everything else. Stay away from our game.

04 Jul 2026 14:03:46
Can't ignore political dictatorships & despots hellbent on wars and creating power for themselves around the world and include them in international sporting events.
How the US got to cohost the WC is beyond me. 🙄

04 Jul 2026 15:16:45
Everybody is a walking contradiction. Stand up for Palestine but openly use Israeli products on the daily. Having just visited Israel recently, I found it to be a very welcoming country, if I am being honest.

04 Jul 2026 22:59:57
And when I worked in both areas of N. Ireland during the Troubles, both sets of people were very welcoming. They hated each other, but were very welcoming. Would you expect them to be any other way to visitors, Peter? Strange way to look at it.

05 Jul 2026 01:29:50
Israeli people just the same as the majority of the world Peter and are very welcoming, their elites, leaders etc are vermin right enough, totally agree with keeping politics out of sport and every country should be allowed to compete in sport even if they are at war etc, makes me laugh that UEFA fine people for so called political things at matches but push their own agendas

{Ed078's Note - everything important is political, you can't keep it out of sports. When Nation states are buying clubs, competitions and FIFA officials, it's impossible.

05 Jul 2026 16:11:53
Coopersdad the Israeli people are not nice people

They spit on and hues abuse and are violent towards Christians in the street, they are only slightly less abusive towards us than they are to Arabs,

Israel has a military service for men and woman. Ing from 18 months to just under 3 years

So the majority of Israelis have served in that morally inept and evil army of theirs.

They are not nice people

06 Jul 2026 05:06:52
That's nice they were very welcoming to you peterpan loyal, all the while slaughtering 25, 000 innocent children, blew up every single hospital, school university, not far from where you were visiting. Coopersdad, the elites aren't out attacking 6 countries at once, while still portraying they're the victim, it's there civilians that are causing genocide, bombing every country that looks at them the wrong way.

Isreali people may be like you, but there certainly not like me. Thank god most of the world aren't like them.

06 Jul 2026 19:26:34
GMF10, I don't know where you worked in N Ireland, but I can assure you both sides were not that friendly to us and am talkin 22 and a half years there.
But we are all Gers men WATP.

07 Jul 2026 09:57:52
I worked in N Ireland from one end to the other. Everywhere I went I was treated well. Maybe because I moved to a different location every week it was different. Can only go by my own experience.

3 times I ended up standing in hotel car parks at 3 in the morning because of bomb warnings. One hotel had signs up stating they were the most bombed hotel in Northern Ireland.

09 Jul 2026 17:52:28
How can you say Israeli people are not nice. Are all Ugandans bad people as well for what's going on in their country? Are all British people bad for killing Iraqis etc etc etc? Blaming the common man for what governments and elites do is just being indoctrinated into their agenda. Bad people everywhere, as there are decent people.

09 Jul 2026 19:06:45
Cooper no man sorry. your in the wrong here.

I hate every single Israeli top to bottom. Their an evil group of people the way they treat every other religion in their region is atrocious, yet they play the victims.

Theyre all part of it mate

11 Jul 2026 15:55:36
Never knew you knew them all, Stevie.

02 Jul 2026 21:03:23
Luke Graham has left Dundee to join Stoke City for an undisclosed club-record fee.



03 Jul 2026 03:53:29
Biggest mistake of his career

03 Jul 2026 10:54:15
Tom, this is not a mistake. This is progress. He's a 2 million pound player, you're on Rangers rumours, he is the real winner.

03 Jul 2026 10:57:11
Tom, you're 100% correct. He could have had a right good career with us, unfortunately he chose a rainy night in Stoke, shows where we are! I wonder who's next for us, Balogun for another year. :|

03 Jul 2026 12:08:18
I heard Ryan Smith will have a promising career, currently in the youth setup. Could possibly struggle in the goal with those goggles he has to wear. Edgar Davids esc!

03 Jul 2026 13:36:29
In hindsight, it may turn out to be his big mistake, but it could just as easily go the other way. Far too early to tell, and people just posting crap like that because he never came to us, which sounds like sour grapes.

03 Jul 2026 15:37:21
Signed for a decent Championship side, think it's a wise move for his career. I would have liked him at Rangers though.

03 Jul 2026 16:33:13
He's made the correct decision 💯 without a shadow of doubt.

3 years down there, and we can go and sign him.

03 Jul 2026 21:11:13
Not the first player to have the chance to sign for Rangers but chose to go south instead.

03 Jul 2026 21:58:41
We shall see where he is in 2 years time

04 Jul 2026 12:56:19
He was never signing for us anyhow. Always bound to go south. Career wise, I think he's made the correct choice. He's getting a hefty 7 and a half grand a week and will be playing in a better league than the SPL.

04 Jul 2026 17:29:28
Good money, better league, probs regular game time, in shop window for higher placed English teams, good enough reasons to move, imo.
Good luck to him.

07 Jul 2026 02:04:42
He's signed for a club playing in the 6th best league in Europe. I don't think the SPFL is even in the top 20?

01 Jul 2026 21:28:50
This has to be the year we get some credibility back. Be the ones bragging a little, and not be the butt of all the jokes it's been absolutely horrendous watching them overtake us

We need to win this year or it's a replacement manager again and rebuild



01 Jul 2026 23:17:23
no it is not a necessity. we need to at last stop that crap of changing everything every year we lose. you will continue to be the butt of jokes (I just don't get that sort of crap from other fans hence you and not we) until we learn that fact.

02 Jul 2026 00:45:00
Worth it imo.

02 Jul 2026 19:06:44
We don't need to win everything this year, but definitely we need to see some balance in the starting lineups and definitely some progress.

But in all honesty, I genuinely think we'll be favourites.

I think Celtic have an even bigger rebuild coming than us, and I know they have the resources, but I'm just not sure their recruitment team will get it right. 🙏

03 Jul 2026 06:38:22
If we finish 3rd again (I don't think we will), then we will be looking for a new manager.

03 Jul 2026 09:44:52
Really, looking for a new manager, don't think we've done that for a while.

04 Jul 2026 17:33:18
We haven't seen any of the newbies playing together yet, we don't know how DM will set us up to play, & still a shed load to leave & come in!!
I hope it all works out, but we've been here before, so I'll just keep my fingers crossed & pray the law of averages works in our favour this time round.

01 Jul 2026 15:14:39
Dundee defender Graham is heading down south to Stoke in a £2m deal.
sky sports.



02 Jul 2026 18:53:49
Ohh well.
