FROM THE CELTIC BOARD

If Wanyama goes to a club to Southampton for £10m, I hope to **** Celtic get a sell on fee % added in to that deal, cos guaranteed he'll be off for two or three times that within 2 years.

Wonder if NC deals in sell on clauses?
 
In Banega & Osvaldo we're being linked to players with questionable temperaments.
Do we think we need to gamble on players that other sides maybe reluctant to go for in order to progress the quality of the squad?
Or should we continue to go for younger players with potential but little top level experience.

I'm willing to give these players a go as long as they're the exception of the squad and not the norm.

Banega and Osvaldo are worlds apart in terms of character concerns. Banega is much like Boruc in that he likes a drink, Osvaldo is known as being disruptive and difficult.

I think the players Cortese buys he fully intends to keep or sell on for so much more that he pays the little extra in the first place to exclude that from the deal.
 
Part of my wife's family live there, Tampa, Fort Lauderdale and Miami. Where you headed?

Ps. I'm sure they have Internet in Florida now...

St. Pete beach, Clearwater area. They do, but her dad only has his wireless dongle gimmick for work which we can't use and there's citywide wifi which you pay a subscription for, but it's pretty ****ty. Also I'm not taking my laptop this summer as it was way too much to carry around last year. I'll check in on the BBC every now and again if we're out and about but I'm not trawling Tribalfootball for rumours!

Oh you lucky man. St pete's is fab. 15 years ago, we went there with the Tampa lot and zipped around the inlet of water on their jet skis. One occasion I had my wife's then 8 year old sister on the ski with me and we had just come off, when a porpoise fin surfaced and disappeared again about ten metres away. I knew deep down it was a porpoise, but is still made me get back on and speed back to the beach pretty damn quickly. I loved it there.

Enjoy.
 
According to the Echo, Osvaldo is giving us the swerve....wow, that astonished me!! Was never going to happen.

Not massively surprising, the only way he will come here is if he is determined to move to the PL and no other teams come in for him. At the price and with his reputation I suppose there is a slim possibility of that though.
