    Be a top player to bring to Celtic. He's got bags of experience and has played at the top tier of English football for quiet sometime as well as two WC's.

    As for Zaluska, the lads only 28 so still has many years left in him at Celtic. James would be just a quick fixs for the time been, get two years out off and hopefully Zaluska could learn a thing or two from him.

    Also James has stated that he'd like to get into coaching, maybe Lenny could offer him the chance to stay on and help out the Bhoys coming through the ranks.

    James would bring a presence, but he would be worth signing if he was on a free and was within the wage budget.
    Getting another player on a free, saves cash for a top class striker.

    Yep I think James is the way to go we do need to keep our money for a striker. All im asking for Is 2 frees (James, Campbell) and Keane I wish. They bring great premiership experience and we would only be buying one of them. Use McGeadys 10mil if we sell him.

    James is a top class keeper, a fitting replacement for the holy goalie and, imo, Lukas wouldn't get a look in if he was here. I really don't think age is a factor either. James is renowned for his fitness and if davie weir can....

    If someone can convince me that a financially secure 40 year old goalkeeper, whose mind tends to wander when he has nothing to do on the park (happens too often), still has the hunger to achieve. Until then NO WAY !!!!

    agreed, this man lives, eats and breathes fitness. i would snap him up in a heart beat, espcially for the coaching prospect and he's still a top top keeper.

    What james commands wage wise compared to Zaluska will be too much ..Zaluska has in my opinion earned the right to be No1

    We should be looking out for a young keeper again to play understudy to zaluiska as he deserves a chance.also James would be wanting atleast 30 grand a week

    Wouldnt complain if we got him, but it would be harsh on Zaluska.

    Guys, David James will be 40 years old come the start of the SPL season.

    Are we really that desperate - or that confident that Zaluska will not succeed?
