The Thompson pass was better than Leighs though :ph43r:
Thompson :Bye: - that game against falkirk where he had to justify his existence was heartbreaking. Shame.

He looks absolutely lightning quick.
Clever finish & good run.
Very encouraging.
Very quick. Managed to out run at least two attempted punches from Jambo fans when he ran behind the goal for his celebration.
noticed that myself.

total hun scumbags.
won't hold my breath for any action to be taken against them.

Has he signed yet?
Nope.

Lawwell sacked the admin team responsible to save money so he's not been registered. . We've been deducted 3 points and last years Premier title has been awarded to Legia Warsaw.

Anne Budge has plenty to say when opposition fans misbehave. Here's a chance for her to show proper leadership and report these fans to the police and ban them from Tynecastle

Really excited by this signing. Exactly the sort of player we've been looking for us to go for. Brilliant start to his career with us and hope he goes on to be a talisman.

G'wan Scotty! :thumbsup:

He'll do very well for us,as he can play through the middle and in the wide areas. Will score and create.

Watching the repeat of the goal a few minutes ago and I've just realised that the player who sent Griffiths off on that run for the winner was actually Sinclair himself!

Makes the goal even more special.

I have a feeling Sinclair is going to be a player I like. Sometimes you can just tell. What I like about him immediately is that he looks really fast. It stands out so clearly in Scottish Football when a genuinely quick player arrives on the scene, mainly because the standard of player in our league is so low. That pace is going to cause opposition full-backs no end of problems and should go a long way towards making Sinclair a success here.

BRENDAN RODGERS last night revealed Scott Sinclair pushed through his £3.5m move to Parkhead by demanding Aston Villa sell him to Celtic.

The champions’ latest signing made a stunning impact on Scottish football by climbing off the bench to net the winner against Hearts at Tynecastle yesterday and Rodgers believes the strike will be the first of many as Sinclair rebuilds a career that looked stellar at one point but has stagnated in recent years.

The duo worked together at Chelsea and Swansea and although Rodgers had to wait six weeks before landing him for Celtic, the Northern Irishman believes Sinclair’s desire to be reunited with his mentor was the clincher in a deal finally being brokered with Villa.

Rodgers said: “Aston Villa didn’t really want to lose the player, but Scott made it clear he wanted to leave.

"Roberto di Matteo’s situation, I respect and understand.

"He has a player that wants to move, but also a player he knows could go a long way to getting out of the Championship.

"So that takes time, but thankfully Scott was very clear he wanted to come here, come in and enjoy his football again.

"Thankfully we got him for reasons like today when you see he is such an important player.

“It was an outstanding goal. You track the speed of his run and once he’s breaking away it’s that hunger and desire that you see from really good players to want to get up and join in.

“His pace to get up there from being so far behind. Leigh Griffiths has done great and then like great strikers, he knows where he wants to put the ball. Scotty has just checked his stride and got a great finish on it.

“He couldn’t have asked for any more considering he’d had just three hours sleep on Friday night to travel up and had a long day yesterday.

“It was a great start for him in front of our supporters as well.”

Rodgers believes there will be far more to come from his new signing when he gets up to speed.

He added: “He can play in a couple of positions I think his home is on that left side. Hes not an out and out winger I’d call him and 11 and a half, he likes to be on the inside at times. He’ll run and be direct, he wants to get goals. He scored 27 goals for me in The Championship for Swansea and he wants to get in there and score goals in the Premier League. His natural habitat is off that left side, coming, joining in the game and getting in the box to score goals.

"Scott has always been about enjoying his football – but the last four years have been really difficult.

"I had him when he was 16 at Chelsea. He played in a really good youth team I had there.

“He went out on loan to a couple of clubs and then I brought him to Swansea where he was outstanding.

“That got him a move to Manchester City. From there really his career stalled.

"So no one has really seen the best of him and probably forgot about his qualities.

"But this was a guy who four or five years ago was scoring a hat-trick in a play-off final under big pressure in front of 90,000.

"He has a big talent.

"He is still young, 27 years of age, physically strong, robust, can play in big games and loves the big occasion and has a lot to learn still.

"So I think he will be really big for us.

“He knows he had to get his career going again, because it stalled a little bit.

“At Aston Villa he always seemed to play full-back.

“I always felt with Scotty you had to get him 50 metres higher up the pitch to help teams and hopefully he can re-create that here at Celtic.”
