    He can’t have anything about him if a club as well run as Sevco have left him go...

    I never understand why people get so worried by signings like this. He will cost * all and obviously has enough about him to be looked at for a while. He may not be good enough, only time will tell, but it’s no big deal if he isn’t.

    I have a few theories for this

    - He has compromising pictures of someone in the board
    - Peter Lawwell is * his ma
    - The forementioned lost a bet
    - The people responsible for the recruiting turned up to work yesterday while still high on crack

    Got to be one of those

    Not worried, it's actually even funny. Sounds like * i used to do in FM "gonna sign three guys from the hong kong u20 team and have them in the reserve team just for the lol"

    He certainly wont drain our finances but this cant be anything other than us being nice to him.

    Anyway all the best to the guy

    I reckon there must be something more about the lad. He had a period of two+ months training with us before a deal was offered. I wish him luck and look forward to him developing.

    Has anyone actually seen him play. A few negative comments. Is it because he came from them to us? I hope not.

    I have only seen him once, Dumbarton v Falkirk. He scored and I recall him being a tenacious and determined in midfield. Falkirk gubbed Dumbarton that day but Burt was OK.

    Feel it’s a mistake signing this kid.

    Seen it so many times in youth footy over the years, where lads jump from 1 team to another. Normally it’s the biggest illustration the kids got no backbone or loyalty.

    You’d think pro clubs would recognise this, and avoid these types like the plague.

    The willingness to sign for them, demonstrates he’s not in the same league as a JF, Calmac or KT.

    Only takes 1 bad apple!!

    Yeah but that still doesn't say to me how much folk on the forum know about him. I had never heard of him so I honestly don't know what he has in his locker.

    He was highly rated at rangers.


    Going on everything I’ve seen about him.

    Well do you know how this all came about? We don't know that he's the glory hunter type. Perhaps Celtic let him go thinking they had taken him as far as they could at that time. Perhaps Sevco couldn't afford to keep him on or he was way down the pecking order. Perhaps his initial allegiance to Celtic didn't go down too well over there. Young footballers have to think in their best interests. Will they get games etc. We all know Sevco is a dead duck and perhaps the boy felt he was better off at Celtic. One thing for sure there's no sentiment in business and Celtic have signed him for a reason.

    Was he highly rated, * us off to sign for them and then injuries have caused him problems and they didn’t want to offer him another contract so he came to train with us and now got a deal?

    If I’m honest I can’t see him making enough impact to get near the first team.

    See more questions? Highly unlikely that Celtic would just do him a favour. At worst he will be a squad player. Not everyone we sign is going to be a star hitting the ground running. We need decent back up at the very least and he could very well be that.

    I honestly think he will just play in the reserve side and nothing more, I really can’t see him breaking into the first team with our midfield being so strong.

    He Asked to leave at the end of his contract so as another club wouldn’t have to pay compensation therefore doing Rangers out of more than £300K .Celtic have been watching him for years . Great move for him .Onwards and Upwards HH

    Some strange attitudes towards a new signing.
