Out of Micky Beale’s collection of waifs and strays Kieran Dowell is first up to issue a title warning to Celtic.
The former Everton starlet is one of the few new recruits not to have been relegated last season but being understudy to Kenny McLean at Norwich is nothing to boast about.
From Josh Windass and Bruno Alves onwards this time of year is peak season for newly signed Ibrox stars looking to earn staunch points with the Gullible & Deluded.
‘He gets it’ is the common response to this close season ritual alongside claims that Selik fans are pure ragin/fumin/beelin about the comments. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Reality is that the comments are as predictable as James Tavernier’s apologies and vows that next time it will be different. Since moving north from Wigan Tavpen has watched Celtic win 18 out of 24 domestic trophies with St Johnstone players having a medal collection to match his own.

Dowell is a Scouser, no doubt he followed the success of Mister Gerrard closely and can’t wait to sample the special atmosphere of Ibrox.
With a scary stare or two he might even replace fellow Scouser John Lundstram as the best midfielder on earth.

Do these new guys get handed the script after their tour of the dressing room and ‘ceramics from all over the world’ viewing ? pic.twitter.com/8PwxtL2oFx— Bono’s Da ????? (@bonos_da) July 10, 2023
Celtic Celtic Celtic as soon as they’re in the door. Imagine Holm or tilio had came in and done an interview on new rangers. I’d be mortified.

Celtic players rarely mention rangers. This headline happens regularly. It’s embarrassing, the Rangers of 2012 don’t even see how mediocre they are now.

Daft laddy. 🙂
I’ll say one thing for Beale:
he’s an elite level coach,
– at coaching his players to talk a good game to the support and to the SMSM.
World Class P!sh!
Unfortunately, that’s not going to win any silverware for sevco.
Again!
Don’t forget that world class breakie to go with the world class training complex.
Lol watch at the first game they drop points in the players will being using the same script as Gerrard,the refs and others have had it in for us for years.
You should really let your performances on the pitch do all the talking. Unless of course you are a no-mark with little by way of previous achievements to talk about, in which case interviews will naturally focus on what you are going to do, as what you’ve done previously wouldn’t fill a newspaper column the size of a postage stamp….
Shakin’ in ma welly boots, so I am. In case it all comes true!
We’ll be millionaire’s next year Mickey. This lot are a fvcking embarrassment. Surely it would be better to tell new signings not to mention us. I,d be more worried if they came in and quietly went about their business which tells me it’s a deliberate tactic used by the idiots in charge of PR. You now things won’t ever change with the limited intelligence of their fan base. Stir them up and rake in the cash.
