My whatsapp group reckon we've been offered Ben Johnson by West Ham if we can't get Matthews. I doubt the accuracy as it's a mate's mate dog etc but this is the place for a rumour I guess!

Should give us some pace down the right
Doughty's quicker ......even without the need for drugs.
I think that's fair enough. Hopefully we've identified some decent signings but we can't act whilst under the embargo so don't want to give other clubs a head start.
Saying that, in today's world, I'd be surprised if those players agents aren't already acting anyway.
Clubs won't believe everything an agent tells them though. So if we have agreed a deal and the agent tells another club that the other club may well think it just a bargaining chip, whereas if the local reporter starts saying done deal it focusses other clubs minds.
I appreciate that it is largely click bait and that Celtic have a large number of supporters eager for news but these derisory offers or alleged offers are becoming irritating. How can it be assumed that a Championship club won’t come in for Doughty with a much larger, more realistic offer ? Alternatively, if his contract runs down, Charlton would still be entitled to a decent level of compensation - and have the benefit of Alfie’s services - if (as is likely) he goes to an English club.
The player’s value is only likely to increase this season and, with it, his value.
The risk for us, of course, is if the Thomas Sandgaard takeover doesn’t happen and the clowns at ESI 2 accept any kind of offer to stagger on for a couple of months and get to their late November trial date. That doesn’t really bear thinking about, with administration the likely outcome.
Dunno if its been mentioned but Freeman is leaving Sheffield United, he would be a great signing(plus he is Welsh) although I expect he has a championship club lined up

And still some people would want him. Hypocrit comes to mind.
We are better than that. He can go f...

Surely if we're in for a player then his agent is touting him around to as many clubs as possible to get the best deal?
Guess as well there may be a club or two that havent been approached by the Agent who'd now contact them anyway
Will share the list much later as I'm busy today.
