Brendan Rodgers has provided a gentle nudge towards increased transfer activity this summer.

Our players have been signed since the end of last season but no-one is expecting Ross Doohan or Callum Osmond to be involved in the August Champions League Play Off.

Kieran Tierney’s welcome return has been formalised following the January announcement of a pre contract deal with Ben Nygren the announcement that has excited the Celtic support.

The Swedish midfielder is a genuine first team player, someone to provide goals and additional options after last season finished with the squad short in that area of the pitch.

Despite the £1.3m transfer fee Nygren looks a quality addition, someone ready to play at Champions League level with Rodgers cleary eyeing up more of the same.

In the full Celtic TV interview he said:

We’re not needing a major overhaul of the squad, but freshness is so important. We’ve done some really good business up until now.

I see us doing more, and to get us set up for what will hopefully be a really exciting season.

Celtic play Queens Park on Friday, Cork City on Tuesday then head to the Algarve to step up their pre-season preparations which includes a match against Sporting Lisbon.

When a six year stretch at the Sunday Mirror came to an end it was clear that the future was digital, print had ran its race.
Smart phones and social media created a new landscape, Video Celts has certainly made an impact with Joe described as having an unhealthy obsession by Peter Lawwell at the 2024 Celtic AGM. A priceless endorsement, cheers big man.
There are issues breaking around the clock, no two days are the same more than 50 years on from his first match Joe is enjoying every success for Scotland's Most Successful Club.

    Anyone else getting the SkySports pop up blank video that u can’t get rid of?

    • Tam57 says:

      Yes, bloody annoying, and while we’re on the subject of annoying why do I have to put my details in every time even though I always tick the save my details box?

    Get lots of pop ups …but manage to x them out…Uninstall…and set up again ??

  • Terence Nova says:

    Editor…How many players do you reckon we have,that are surplus to requirements ? I’m all for new faces….but !!

    Editor: If you could get the seven duds signed by Mark Lawwell removed we’d have a decent lean squad to go forward with, unfortunately they are all under contract until May 2028 so that won’t be happening.

      Download the OPERA browser from play store ,gives you the choice to disable ads.

  • Garryq27 says:

    I use the Brave to access these sites. No adverts popping up.

  • JTT says:

    A suggestion for anyone having pop up ads problems. Use Brave Browser. It can be downloaded for free on the Play store, and the App Store too, I think. This browser includes an adblocker but default. It’s served me well for years.
    Good luck.

    Still don’t know what Rodgers has against nawrocki he’s never let us down anytime he’s been asked,and wonders he scored a headed goal from a corner,that’s maybe put our manager and coaches off him.

    • Frank Wright says:

      Apparently he “kicks with the wrong foot” according to BR (no, me neither). Do you really need a left-footed and right-footed partnership in central defence? I’m sure we could cope without one.

    • Terence Nova says:

      Defo a mystery…Really good player imo…But what do we know ?

  • Jim Duffy says:

    Why is nawrocki overlooked,is it because he scored a headed goal from a corner,which upset the manager and coaches, because he has never let us down anytime he’s been asked to play.

    Download duck duck go,use it as your browser and it removes all adds.
