Mowbray in talks with Celtic

Nah, that's the money they ask for them to allow Mowbray to join Celtic. They want to reach an agreement on that before letting us talk to him officially, if the deal doesn't go down, we won't pay.

Similar to a player transfer really.

 

lol was thinking that myself ,an expensive conversion ,its common knowledge that Mowbray is the man they want ,and on that im guessing the talks have allready taking place .

 

Oh right i was a bit confused when i saw this piece on the BBC website the other day ....


"We inserted a compensation figure when Tony signed a new contract 16 months ago," he said. "It is non-negotiable because we don't want to lose our manager.
"Celtic have been made aware of the figure and if they agree to pay this, only then will I speak to Tony and get his thoughts on the situation.
"Until and unless that happens, as far as we are concerned it is business as usual as we plan for a very important season ahead of us.


The bit highlighted threw me a touch as the compo mentioned was only for the WBA chairman to speak to Mowbary and get his views on the matter ...sounds a bit suspect to me and i dont blame our Board one bit looking at that

 

Yeah, but it says "agree to pay", WBA are just playing hard ball, cause they don't really want Mowbray to leave. They want some sort of insurance agreed beforehand.

Having said that, it would be naive to think that Celtic haven't actually contacted Mowbray personally yet.

 

Mowbray will know his salary and transfer budget by now if he is the guy the club want.

 

All this waiting for news is doing my nut in.My fingers are near black and blue from bashing the tv remote while on teletext.

 

i have a feeling that tomorrow is d-day....Mowbray....or a wee surprise..hopefully a good one if it is.

 

to be honest i think this will drag into the third week

 

celtic as per usual * up and brewery

 

as per usual? any examples?

 

Quit Trolling.

Unless you have something to contribute to a thread, dont post !

 

BBC Scotland have tonight claimed that Celtic have made "no further contact" with West Bromwich Albion and "there are no ongoing negotiations" regarding Baggies manager Tony Mowbray.

interesting...

 

Waits for the Bilic fans to start up..... :icon_mrgreen:

 

a heard the martinez deal to wigan has fell through, dont know the source, but from my father

 

yep he wasnt at the conferecne where he was to be unveiled , it was postponed.

 

Something to do with both clubs not agreeing the specifics over compensation for his assistants?

 

Martinez will sign up at wigan shortly i reckon. Just issue with asssitants

 

exactly that.

 

Me, ive been more interested in gettin him signed for the dons than us gettin a new manager.
