Since this is the end of the window.. lets give this transfer a recap and rate it on the scale of A-F

250,000 Paddy McCourt: Well known Irish league player. Low risk.. potential high reward. Does not improve this squad.

1,000,000 Samaras: Good Striker. Good business.

450,000 Crosas: Does not improve squad immediatly. High reward.

2,000,000 Loovens: Strachan said himself one for the future since caldwell and mcmanus are each worth 15 million.

2,000,000 in for Sno: Cancels out the loovens deal.

300,000 for the kenny miller sell on. cancels out the mccourt deal.

So we spent $1,350,000 this summer.
With a guaranteed 10 million in from the champions league which the huns dont get.


Our most glarring weakness for a year: Leftback. Do we fix it at all? Nope.


My rating for this transfer period:

Celtic management: D-
Celtic scouts: F... even below an F its like they got caught plagiarizing and were kicked out for that.

to be fair we dont know what reports the scouts brought back, its more on the board to act

now with riordan gone

we spent $ 950,000 this summer.



i bet you hibs, hearts, dundee and aberdeen have spent more.

i said this last week--the celticfc board are at fault for this mess not strachan

Ill wait to January to grade this transfer window. But spending below 1mil dollars is unacceptable.
