Somewhere along the line Bobo Balde and Tommy G must of lost their love for football. Bobo who has been sitting on his arse for the best part of two years, he goes to his bank account once a week and withdraws 28k.

Tommy G’s agent today declared that his client is going nowhere and is more than prepared to sit along side Bobo week in week out and hit his ATM for a whopping 40k a week. While it is well with in their rights to do this, it also paints a picture though of the type of person they are. After all were taking a combined total of nearly 70k a week here for two players that do absolutely nothing to help the Celtic cause.

There is a countless number of players who take off down the divisions, take pay cuts, move to different countries all for the sake of getting a couple of minutes on the park every week. I doubt Tommy G or Bobo are short of a few quid so it’s bewildering to think they are willing to tarnish their names and leave Celtic fans with nothing to remember them by except for two sponges who dinted the progression of the playing squad.

As for management and boards a lot has been made of the new Celtic signing policy that ensures your not landed with any duds by giving them long term contracts then find they can’t deliver and you can’t shift them. On the other hand you don’t want to be signing some wonderkid on a short-term basis, he sets the world on fire and moves on for nothing. This is the dilemma that clubs are left with these days but if the players were through footballers and didn’t mind a pay cut of say 28k to 20k I’m sure they’d manage to pay the bills and might still get a game of football (what there paid for) to boot.

It would be a joy for Celtic Football Club when the window shuts if there was 70k a week been spent on players that actually were involved in the coming season.
