    This whole thing has been a total mess.

    Would we not have sounded the lad out about the move before we put the bid in? How is it that we can have a bid accepted by Mptherwell, and the player rejects it?

    It's quite easy to reject a deal.

    Norwich * *. I don't see him playing for the 1st year, probably loaned out.
    Henderson and Mikey look just as good just not given the chance. Also have Dembele and Okoflex, we have young midfielders already. It would have been a good signing but I won't cry

    Anyone who would have sanctioned us paying this kid 20 grand a week needs to stop sniffing glue. Can you imagine the reaction from virtually every player we have on a contract .. they would all be expecting improved terms ffs. The agent and player are the same as Mcginn, all about how much cash can they rake in.

    I know. I just would have thought there would have been conversations with the agent via Christie or something, or maybe Mikey Johnston would have been in his ear when they were away with the 21s.

    It can't have been that hard to find out if he was interested in a move to Celtic. Maybe he was, but preferred to move to England which is why we tried to get him fairly early. As I said the whole thing has just been messy.

    I don't think going to the premiership for a team who will be fighting relegation all season is a good move for him. He'll be playing for Rangers or Aberdeen within the next 5 years...

    Not bothered about Turnbull but the way we go about our transfer business is an embarrassment.

    * him. He could turn out a decent player but could quite easily turn out * as well.

    The club fronted up the cash so can't have a go at them for that. Putting out a tweet mid-negotiation and letting him string us along for the last 4 days was a faux pas though.

    Hopefully some lessons learned.

    Going forward:
    • Tell the agent he's not welcome at Celtic Park again.
    • Tell Christie to get him to *.
    • Get moving on other targets, we've wasted valuable time in dealing with these bawbags, we can't afford any more * about with qualifiers round the corner

    The fact the leaked transfer document said we had still to approach players agents in April to see if there was any interest shows how * our recruitment is.
