Hair of the Dog – Motherwell Awaits

In the Press:

Bobo Balde sidelined for season, courtesy of The Daily Record.

If defensive woes weren’t already copious enough, Bobo Balde is done for the season, joining defensive Gary Cadwell and Mark Wilson, both Strachan’s would-be first picks to stand in the backline. Celtic will look to young talents, most likely Darren O’Dea or John Kennedy, to fill in with Paul Telfer, Lee Naylor, and captain extraordinare Stephen McManus.

With Charlton’s Alan Perdew confident of his transfer talks, Celtic’s hope of signing former Hearts captain Steven Pressley has all but faded. Looking to greener pastures (and younger ones, I might add), Gordon Strachan is eying heavy Aberdeen’s Russell Anderson to fill in the defensive vacancies. The upside to this potential transfer: Anderson, as noted, is five years younger than Pressley. The downside: Anderson is still committed to Aberdeen for a few more years. This means Celtic would have to shell out more cash than they would have had to acquire Pressley.

And for good measure-
“We’re rank rotten!” says Le Guen of his Rangers, courtesy of The Daily Record.

I love when this guy gets flustered, and there are delightful rumours that he may get sacked. This all following an away 1-2 loss to Caley Thistle in Inverness.

We are Celtic. This is the Celtic Offside Report.
