In recent weeks Brendan Rodgers has repeatedly made known his desire to add up to four players of high quality to his first team options. With a current squad of 32 players bulging at the seams, quantity is most definitely not the issue at Lennoxtown. Whether on loan or on a permanent basis a number of players are likely to exit in the forthcoming January window – a window which opens in less than 4 weeks’ time. Leading the exodus

It was a familiar Celtic story last night in Rome. Compete in the game for large spells, create a number of half chances, but inevitably walk away at the final whistle with another demoralising defeat to add to our pitiful Champions League record. Whilst you can argue how well or not players like Greg Taylor,
10 games in 35 days. That’s what Celtic face between Saturday’s clash with Motherwell and the turn of the year as they look to strengthen their grip on the Scottish Premiership title as well as remain in European football beyond Christmas.

Since the turn of the century, domestic dominance has become the order of the day for Celtic with the Hoops claiming seventeen of twenty-four Scottish Titles
Nearly three full days later I’m still reeling from that result. Why, I don’t know? It’s not as if we haven’t been there before. Tino and James, in their Final Whistle Podcast, rightly called our performance grim and embarrassing.
