Celtic is a graveyard for Irish young lads. Why anyone would go there is beyond me. Kenny would be playing European football if he stuck with Sligo for an extra year.

What's the big sell when these players join Celtic? Especially Kenny given where he was at with Sligo? More money is a given, but is that it? Even Hearts or Aberdeen is a better option. You might have some chance of playing sooner rather than later. 

Would love to be fly on the wall when it comes to why players are convinced Celtic is the route to take when recent history shows you get very little to no opportunity to impress there.

Same as any other club really, if your good enough you'll play.


It was far across the sea,
When the devil got a hold of me,
He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.

Vata is still a kid only 17 so not that alarming for him! Lawal surely they loan the lad out now. Kenny will be spending a 2nd season playing Lowlands League football when he could be starring for Sligo Rovers having a 20 goal season and as a consequence attracting high profile interest.. 

Utterly ridiculous situation Kenny and Lawal are in. Luca Connell finally got out and already starting for a side in League 1 who will be pushing for promotion and that's with him having gone backwards the last 3 years.

Hibs were in for Kenny and made a big play for him, but Kenny was blinded by the offer of a first team squad place and a squad number at Celtic. Which, as we saw with Connell, are both completely meaningless. The young Norwegian lad Hibs signed after Kenny turned them down is starting in the SPL today, Kenny's playing Lowland League.

Evidently not good enough for a squad place in first team.

But I don't think it's that black and white. There's good and there's good. A really good player could be playing lowland league for a "huge" club or subs bench for Stoke. 

Opportunity is the difference. As mentioned, I think he was blinded by the hoops instead of taking the more pragmatic option. 

Doesn't make a difference where you're at now. A year of lowland league could very well have your confidence elsewhere. Before you know it, you're out of sight, out of mind. 

There's always the next young gun coming up the line to take your place.

Sure the 3 of them were playing at a higher level than that before they went to Celtic. Complete waste of their time.

A morale sapping defeat there for the Civil Service Strollers after their encouraging win against Open Goal Broomhill at the weekend.

These are actual team names in this division...
