Ross and hughes will be prominant at rangers, flo will always play more than he deserves simply cos he cost 12 mil.

Mjallby is one of our key defenders and the vice captain, petta usually starts ahead of thommo anyway and the form fernandez has been showing leads me to believe he could be a great signing for 1 mil, hartson will start more than sutton who will probably be relegated to defence, which mystifies me no end.
Rafael will never come near celtic park again.

That one has me scratching my head as well. An impartial observer would deduce that it should probably be the other way around. I'll have to wait to see some games on FSW.

Its cos sutton is actually a fairly accomplished centre back and we are short on cover for fairly accomplished centre backs, he started his career as a central defender, played there for norwich before being punted to the front, but we play better with sutton at the front in my opinion and although hartson is almost guaranteed to score at least 15 goals a season wether it be English Premiership, SPL etc he is still not as good as linking up the play and creating space for henke as big chris(who scored against parma today btw!), fatbhoy(as I so affectionately call him)would probably be the crapest defender in history ;)
oh wait....that man rafael again!
not to mention bombscare....

I think Rafael will come back for Celtic. £5 million was a bargain and nobody seems to admit it.

What was it MON said to him "Rafael you play like me.....and im 50 years old." something along those lines. :D
He's a funny one our manager, During the world cup the leeds speculation blew up and before the brazil game linekar and the rest of that mob are asking him if hes going to be keeping rio ferdinand when he takes over at leeds, the wee MON's reply "You know what I like about you Gary (linekar)?......Very Little."

Had me in stitches that one.

btw, if they don't sort out that tv deal, you won't be seeing jack.

[ads_uk]

unless you have a season ticket :D :D

bbc, im sure, will be showing a lot of games live next year.

[Parkhead_Faithful]

channel 5 are also in the race for the SPL tv rights and they are usually pretty good when it comes to football coverage.
Scottish football on terrestrial tv more than twice a season!
its like a dream come true.

I caught the tail end of something on sky news just there. I always moan at them for repeating what they say every 30 odd minutes but now i want them to. :@

p.s. all i saw was glimpses of the scottish cup final :P

[GersMan]

apparently a deal has been agreed now. I wonder if they will have N. American telecasts this Saturday. I hope so.

[BT in DC]

Flanagan's (in Bethesda) updated their schedule yesterday and don't list Celtic's game. But they don't show anything for Saturday.

Summer's in Arlington doesn't show any SPL games on their schedule.
