Impressed again with his interview yesterday & he seems happy that the board have supported him. I'm guessing from what he said that we were hopeful of getting Mcarthy,possibly on loan,until Everton's replacement for him signed for Spurs. If that is the case then it's been unfortunate,but we will have to look further afield than just the EPL in future Windows as it's difficult to entice many signings from that market. The funds must still be available though & lets hope that they are utilised to Make us a lot,lot stronger on the field after the next 2 windows.
From his quotes on the Celtic Twitter account after the game last Saturday he definitely wanted another player in, but he said that even if we didn't get one he was delighted with the transfer window, which suggests that maybe he was wanting someone like McCarthy but wasn't entirely confident we could get him. That's fair enough. I'm quite glad that we're shopping for the right player these days rather than any player.
My guess (with no info whatsoever) is that we wanted McCarthy and were confident that he wanted to come. Either his groin injury or Everton's reluctance to loan him to us (as opposed to selling him to an EPL club who could afford to pay crazy money) meant that the move became less likely in the last few days.

The rhetoric about "one more" definitely dialled down in the last couple of days of the window.
i do have info, and you are almost bang on with your post :thumbsup:

Good piece with BR.
Liquidation mentioned a few times (not by Brendan) which won't go down well.
BR also talk about the players that he knows that are ow at rangers. Looks like Warburton is taking BR's sloppy seconds.

Brendan Rodgers wary of danger in Celtic v Rangers clash

Spoiler: click to toggle
Some serious rewriting of history going on there.

Nobody in Scotland considered the team playing in Airdrie with the same strips at the same stadium to be the same club as the liquidated Airdrieonains. Even the SFL had them listed as winners of trophies that Clydebank won on their website.

Weird that one article has BR basically saying he know's Warburton and that's about it and the other quotes him as saying he's one of his (BR's) closest friends.

If you mean the last one there, it's not a real quote - it finishes with "BR said none of the above".

On SSN...

Says Griff had trained well all week...was sent for a scan to see how his hammy had reacted to this rather than take part in what was a light session.

Well deserved.

Bit to go yet before he betters MON's league start - first defeat in November with only four points dropped beforehand.

But Rodgers has CL qualification in the bag though, so can arguably better the overall start to the 2000 season :thumbsup:

And he started with a lot more dross and still has a lot more dross than MON ever did plus O'Neill had Larsson.

Fair comment, but also fair to say he's up against a lot more dross (european excluded :) )

Handles SMSM with aplomb. Rightly treats those that deserve it with withering disdain

Suspect Griff is fit and he's playing them with the scan ruse (defusing the Griffiths pulled out of Scotland squad on a whim line which SMSM are clearly trying to spin)

I hope you are right about Griff. It sounds plausible to be fair, if he has been training and has a scan a couple of days before to confirm everything is ok.'
Also plants doubt in sevco team and then we drop the bomb and Griff starts and scores a hat trick! Please let it be true!

Anyone see what Etims has tweeted about some tabloid paper holding back a story about Brendan until just before sevco game. They seem to think it's pretty bad. According to them the paper have been 'sitting on the story'

Typical. That mob get pictured with loyalist flute bands and nothing in the press about that. I know I shouldn't get annoyed and it's to be expected but still angers me nonetheless
