white horse, how is your lad doing at Dunfermline mate? I follow him on instagram he seems to be playing regular and enjoying himself and he's scored a few goals eh?

Shouldn't have been released imo a longer contract with maybe 2 years on loan he'd been great squad player to have going forward for us Imo mate

Stevie, have a look for the story in the Sun over the weekend where Robbie talks a bit about it. Seems another one of Martin's decisions. He talks about how he is loving his time at the Pars and feels he has a bit of a chip on his shoulder about how it happened.

30 Mar 2026 22:56:39
It actually feels like Russell Martin was another lifetime.

31 Mar 2026 07:46:29
EHL, it does, and surprising how quickly on the pitch at least we seem to have got back to half decent.
You might not know or be willing to say, but it does seem though that if players like Robbie Fraser were given buy backs that someone knew that there needed to be a bit more thought of what happened after Martin had gone.

So giving the manager his way short term but planning for after.

31 Mar 2026 18:08:59
Angus, it's pretty standard for us to insert buy back options in pretty much any home grown talent we sell on.

Often we opt to insert a buy back clause and waive our development fee on return.

31 Mar 2026 22:32:25
Cheers EHL, thought it might be someone at the top thinking it was wrong decision and putting a clause in to reduce the damage being caused.

01 Apr 2026 15:17:34
Exactly, EHL, been doing that for a long time. Rangers took the decision not to ask for development fees as most teams could not afford them and it effectively put kids out of the game.

30 Mar 2026 00:27:15
Are Celtic adopting the old Rangers model signing ex Premier League players that simply are not worth the wages for example Kieran Tierney is on 50k a week ox chamberlain 55k a week now apparently they want Robertson would be on about 70k a week.

30 Mar 2026 07:42:18
Robbos still a good player and always said he wants to play for Celtic, but let them take all these older players on high wages and no sell on. Works for me lol.

30 Mar 2026 17:07:37
Robbie, a class act for me, he'd be best player in the league if they got him.

30 Mar 2026 17:17:21
Stevie, Andy Robertson isn't the same player now, mate. I'd be happy if Celtic sign him, only because of his and Tierney wages when only one would play, minimum 120k weekly for a couple of lb's. Do get Tierney can play lcb, but he'd be up against it with some big lumps in our leagues playing cf.

30 Mar 2026 20:40:09
Robertson could get over a hundred grand in Prem for a couple of seasons off one of the other clubs, (playing well or not), probably a couple of years before he puts on the green and grey hoops.

30 Mar 2026 20:54:38
I agree with you, Stevie, still a level above any player in our league.

30 Mar 2026 22:34:12
I hope he never joins them. Been one of my favourite players.

31 Mar 2026 10:02:13
Robertson is done. Legs have gone. Wouldn't be concerned at all if they broke the bank to sign him.

31 Mar 2026 11:16:43
Same, Kaiser, would tarnish how much I like him. What a player, could rip it up in SPL for a season or 2.

31 Mar 2026 18:07:49
Boys, I'd agree he's not the same player, of course not. If he was, Celtic couldn't attract him.

He was the best left back in the world for a couple seasons at one point, no question.

He's still on a different level, as Storm says, to anyone in Scotland.

29 Mar 2026 18:35:33
Don't know why but that incident involving John Hartson and a team mate just came up on my phone. What a horrible man this guy must be to do what he done. To think that he is given contracts to write articles or appearances on tv is beyond belief. Horrible, horrible human being to do what he did.

30 Mar 2026 08:03:43
John Hartson shouldn't be writing or on TV due to being a terrible pundit, and doesn't half talk nonsense. He makes Dean Windass sound clever.

30 Mar 2026 20:44:43
Terrible on TV, he never bothered me much as a player for them, as he was open about what he did on pitch. Sutton was the sly one and got away with murder.

29 Mar 2026 10:58:47
whether anyone chooses to believe or not
I'm going to watch every game very closely on the run in
Conspiracy hats on
But my thinking is I will see referee decisions going more for Celtic than anyone else
How many goals will we have chopped off for a potential foul that happened 10 minutes before the actual goal 🙈

it's a shame I can't honestly be assured all we have to do is show up play the game without anxiety that referees will have a huge influence on where the title potentially goes

Yes this post is ridiculous yes it's completely conspiracy but it's my thoughts at this precise time 🤢

How many extra minutes will be added to there games if they need it

this is what could totally ruin a great run in to the title this year all I'll say is it better not.

29 Mar 2026 11:25:21
The way to avoid this from having any effect, Stig, is for Rangers players to go out and give 100% in every game, dominate the opposition, create chances and take them when they come and win, win, win.



Do I think there have been many dubious decisions in ours and others' games this season, yes I do. But it's in our hands to go and ensure this is not a factor in where the title ends up in May.

29 Mar 2026 11:38:36
Absolutely, Cooper11. 👍 💙

29 Mar 2026 12:54:43
Hopefully the refs keep on giving them decisions and added time to finish 3rd. Possibly the worst run conspiracy of all time to get a team to 3rd place, unless Lawell has a big bet on that happening.

Stig, we will win the title if we beat the other teams, and we will lose if we don't. So it is all on us, I'm afraid.

29 Mar 2026 12:55:07
I've also been thinking this, and have said DR needs to make sure the team are well up for this and give it their all 110 %.

I'm sure he will, as he knows what's at stake and will have his eye on the prize.



If they do that, then they have a chance to win this regardless of any dodgy refereeing. I have no doubts, though there will be some dubious decisions.

Perception Vs Reality

This season, the average total match length in the SPL is 97 minutes and 16 seconds.

Matches involving Livingston last the longest on average, while Celtic games are consistently the shortest in the league.

1 Livingston 98:07.
2 Dundee United 97:53.
3 Aberdeen 97:53.
4 Rangers 97:41.
5 Hearts 97:30.
6 Dundee FC 97:09.
7 St Mirren 97:02.
8 Hibernian 97:00.
9 Falkirk 96:58.
10 Motherwell 96:52.
11 Kilmarnock 96:44.
12 Celtic 96:35.

The second half is where the majority of additional minutes are concentrated.

Longest Second Halves: Rangers matches lead this category, averaging 50 minutes and 25 seconds.



Shortest Second Halves: Celtic matches average 49 minutes and 43 seconds.

Consistency: There is only a 42-second difference between the team with the most second-half added time and the team with the least.

The "Late Goal" Narrative:

Celtic have been the most prolific in late-game scenarios, scoring 8 goals beyond the 90-minute mark this season.

Rangers have scored 7 injury-time goals.

I wonder what the referees are trying to achieve by giving Livingston so many extra minutes? Conspiracy theories on a post card.

29 Mar 2026 14:13:42
Probably because Livingston wastes the most time in a game.

29 Mar 2026 14:17:26
Free talcum powder. 👀😇

29 Mar 2026 14:28:59
I like it, EHL. 😅

See if I never posted that, then you wouldn't have posted that crucial information. 😅 👍

29 Mar 2026 17:05:42
EHL, incredible analysis you provided in that post. No wonder you are employed in your role. Well done, sir.

30 Mar 2026 13:19:31
EHL, or is they numbers just because the match ends at 90 mins if Celtic are leading. 😜

28 Mar 2026 18:09:26
Classic Clarke!

A friendly and he can't go for it or make any significant changes.
No changes
No new players from the start
Same old p! sh!

Sack him now for me. Let him go to Celtic.

29 Mar 2026 10:29:06
He's just not that kind of manager and we know it. He had to give Gunn minutes as he's not playing for his club, Patterson also, but he hasn't played much for Everton and Conway hasn't played much for Scotland. At least Curtis got a first run out. Would've thought Mccrorrie would have been on instead of Ralston and the likes of Miller given some minutes.



Having forked out many thousands of £'s to go to the Haiti game, that wasn't the kind of performance that fills me with any confidence. With Doak not available up front, we really lack any real creative spark.

Expect the midweek game will be a different starting 11.

27 Mar 2026 22:38:29
Hi,

The way the Celtic fans/GB have treated the board/money men is just unbelievable, the money the board etc have had in fines alone is huge over the years, and have continually warned them to stop!

The board can not just give in to them, the fans need to behave better to help the situation.

When fans destroy property etc the clubs pay up to put things right, show respect to receive it.

Yes our fans are not much better, and have been similar for as long as I can remember!

The longer their problem continues, the better for us.

28 Mar 2026 07:32:39
We have the same problem, and it was ongoing for a while previously, seemed to quieten a bit, then blotted their copybook going on the pitch by taking the bait. Both as bad as each other, no middle ground.

28 Mar 2026 08:21:50
If you just change Celtic for us and UB for GB, you could actually put your post on the Celtic rumours site. That is how close the two sets are.

28 Mar 2026 08:24:29
Correct. 👍
