The Green Brigade have confirmed that there will be a tifo at Hampden tomorrow for Celtic’s Scottish Cup Semi Final against Aberdeen.

Celtic’s former Head of Recruitment, Lee Congerton, has savaged the club’s signing policy in the years gone by and insisted he could have signed more stars of the future had they loosened the reins slightly when he worked in Scotland. Lee Congerton Congerton was of course drafted in by Brendan Rodgers during his first stint in the Parkhead hotseat and managed to snare Moussa Demeble and Odsonne Edouard amongst others. However, the longer into Rodgers’ tenure at that time, the clearer it was for Lee that he couldn’t work under the restraints imposed by the bean counters at Celtic Park. Peter ..read more

Permanently signing Adam Idah, even for the reported £6 million valuation would be a good move by Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers… Adam Idah continues to impress in his short time as a Celtic player with 7 goals in 12 games, with many of those appearances coming from the bench. His numbers do make for impressive reading. Adam’s arrival as we know wasn’t exactly greeted with a great deal optimism, but the Irish international has shown that he has what it takes to succeed as a Celtic player. The negativity wasn’t directed at him but at the Celtic Board who looked like they were gambling with the ..read more
