I don't know where you are but it was miserable here this morning. 

Glasgow City Centre. It was cloudy and a bit rainy, but it's warm. It's certainly not the weather for a coat like Davie's wearing there unless he's feeling the chill. 

[Busta Nut]

It's been threatening to pish down all day

[Richie]

Celtic and club doctor trying to pull a fast one and negotiate down the fee?

Yeah, warm as fuck though. Typical Scottish summer really.

Could very well be. I'm sure Lennon said on Thursday or Friday that the medical was going on as he spoke, but I guess I may have been drunk. 

One thing I do know is that this thing has been a drawn out affair unlike anything else I've seen in a while. Heard a few more people talking about issues with the medical, but I guess we'll see. I just want the thing done and dusted and us to have the transfer fee confirmed.

Well, let's hope so, and let's hope it's all went smoothly for both the boy and for us. 

What I'd heard wasn't all that great, and sounded like it could have been problematic. Obviously just heresay though if he's already en route to Celtic's training camp.

EDIT: Okay, I've seen the photo you're maybe on about....

No fucking way thats not photoshopped why are people even questioning it?

[Richie]

If there was an issue, surely they'd just pull out.

Its not like buying a scratch and dent fridge.

Sounds like a pisstake trying to negotiate down a fee based on medical (if rumours are to be believed).

 

 

[underboyleheating]

He doesn't appear to be in any of the SNS press shots so far.

[Yoshi-1991]

here you go, bit more believable now 

[Tamwell]

Heard he's been spotted lifting the European cup in 1967.

Edit, found the pic in question

[Yoshi-1991]

Sources close to ground crew say he made the flight.

Rangers managed to swoop with a magnificent offer in the last minute. Explains the lack of conformation by the club.

No wonder there were issues with the Celtic medical, he’s had a good summer by the looks of things. 

[DunnyMFC]

There has been times when players add a bit of timber during the end of season. 

[Yoshi-1991]

In his most stunning U turn yet, David has decided to make the switch away from football in favour of a new sport. 

 

 

[Yoshi-1991]

P.S fuck me silly season has got to me

[santheman]

He hasn't jetted off to Austria with the Celtic team apparently!!!!!!

[grizzlyg]

If Sellik are trying to lower the price then we should pull out the deal. Never known a transfer taking that long.....could there be another twist?....I have no info, just curious

[superward]

Flying down south to complete medical today with Celtic club doctor and his agent. Will join up with Celtic team after that. Apparently.

Speak for yourself.

Lennon told us in an interview on Thursday or Friday that he was undergoing a medical "as we speak," and yet he's now apparently going for a medical the following Monday?

[Big Stall]

I was told this morning by someone who was told something........

that Celtic tried to change the terms of the deal on Friday night and are playing funny buggers. Whilst that's all conjecture and told by someone who heard something blah blah, it does seem to tie in with some of the stuff in the last few pages.

For what it's worth, I am definitely not ITK
