Scott Brown

Brown just signed a five year deal!! Source Sky Sports news!!!

Great news for the Bhoys.

 

It saids the biggest transfer in scottish history though ....

 

I'm sure it is eventually.Installments or appearances,add on's.Ah mebbe it's true just can't see the Lawman parting with that amount of cash up front.
Once there's cash left in the kitty for Bellers i don't care.

 

Bellers will be at least 5 million. I dont see 10 million being spent on two players mate.

 

Mebbe not man.But no harm in hoping.There is money there no doubts.And there will be lads who are offski too.
Strachan has managed Bellamy before,great working relationship together.

Tbh i'm nearly boring myself(and others i'm sure) with constant Bellers talk but then i remember the goal at Snake mountain,the hat trick's against the Arabs and the Sheep.I think he's gettable.It's not the most outlandish rumour ever.And i've been saying for a while that this summer will be the equivelent for us that the Huns had when they produced Gascoigne.
And Strachan did talk about WOW signings and i don't think Brown as decent potential that he is, qualifies as that.But Bellamy would.

 

Scott Brown (born June 25, 1985 in Dunfermline, Fife) is a Scottish professional footballer, currently playing for Scottish Premier League club Hibernian F.C. but announced that he had agreed to join Celtic F.C. for the beginning of the 2007/08 season and not Rangers F.C. as portrayed by the media and in particular Derek Johnstone DJ an Ex Rangers F.C. player (known for his hunbelievable exclusives) and more embarrassingly Rangers F.C fans who sang recently at Easter Road home of Hibernian F.C that they would TAKE Scott Brown only for them to end up with egg on their face. Johnston had promised to resign if his exclusive didnt come true, but is currently having second thoughts due to his realisation that being overweight and middle aged tends to rule you out of most employment. Brown initially emerged as a temperamental forward player, but since
redefined himself as an attacking midfielder.

lool

 

really shoulda posted this in this thread bt posted in another bt feel it has added value here :

 

That link is moronic and down right embarrasing to anyone Scots

 

How is it embarrasin to Scots? If the Chewin' The Fat boys done that everyone would be callin it comedy genius. It's only meant for a laugh. Treat it as such!!!

 

it was 4.4 milliion for brown why cant uz get ur head around that?
Graham said they would do it in installments but hibs said middlesboroughs deal would be knocked back as they were trying to do it in installemnts?

Great Buy . Great Player. Great Club

 

He's really done brilliant for the Hibees, and with Lennon going, I reckon that could open the door for him in the Celtic team.

 

You said it I think there is nothing wrong with the amount paid for him. pfff we got that world class scout from hibs and he must have reccomended him to strachan.

He is the right buy for celtic he will do really well in a celtic shirt.

 

Brown's young enough that he could still be wearing the Hoops in 10 years.
Best player in the SPL outside of Celtic, hopefully he'll be a great player for the club. Originally I felt we neaded Thompson more than Brown when we first linked with the twins, but Thompson hasn't really been that good for the Manky mob, and Brown looks to be the better prospect at the moment.
Strachan had the money to up his offer for Thomson in january and didn't, so obviously he feels Brown is the better of the two players.
Wouldn't mind seeing Hartley, Brown, McGeady & Naka as a midfield next season, hopefully there's a few more signings to come, although we've got Brown & McDonald snapped up before the window opens.

 

I think it was mark weedy that said he was going to be someone after seeing him agaimst Italy.And he was really good in that game ,if we get real quality in that midfield alongside him then we could be rollin.

Here BTW were would/do you think Strachan will play him?

On the right,or in the middle?

 

I didn't say it as fact i suggested it as a possible scenario because that's how we often do business especially since Lawwell arrived.Remember the Naka deal everyone reported it as 2.5mil everyone than it turned out as less than half of that.
It's in both clubs interests that the fee quoted is high anyways.And according to the Boro CE there was no offer for Brown.Not everything you reported is a fact was the point i was making.And i still don't believe that we paid 4.4 up front to Hibs.That's what they wanted for both Thomson and Brown in January and we thought it was overpriced then but now we will pay if for Brown only.I believe Lawwell has too much financial acumen for that but if someone has other info that will prove me wrong fair dues.

 

in the middle hopefully hez much more effective there hope strachan sees that!!

 

WHY I JOINED CELTS
Exclusive
By Keith Jackson

SCOTT BROWN last night opened his heart about the transfer which has rocked Scottish football.
Brown was finally confirmed as Celtic's new £4.4million capture yesterday - almost 48 hours after Record Sport revealed his megabucks five-year deal at Parkhead.
In an exclusive interview, Brown insisted he was never given the chance to choose between Celtic and Rangers as the Ibrox club failed to match Hibs' asking price. The 21-year-old midfielder revealed how it took him only seconds to say "yes" to Gordon Strachan's SPL champions.
And he dismissed suggestions he was longing to move to the other side of Glasgow.
Brown said: "It wasn't as big a decision as you might think. Celtic offeredme everything that I was looking for and I said yes. It was pretty much as simple as that. People talk about making a decision between Celtic and Rangers but the truth is I was never faced with making that choice.
"Celtic met the transfer fee that Hibs were looking for and Rangers didn't come up with the same offer.​

"Celtic told me they wanted to build their team around me and a couple of other players - and that was all I needed to hear from them."

Brown is now bracing himself for a red-hot reception from the Rangers supporters when he turns out for Gordon Strachan's side in his first Old Firm match next season.

He said: "I'm sure the Rangers fans will give me stick and I'll just have to deal with that. It's hardly going to be anew experience for me to get pelters from punters!

"Maybe they feel let down because they heard everybody say that I was a Rangers fan as a boy. But that's not really the case.

"I supported my cousin Kevin Fotheringham, who was playing for the Rangers Under-21s, but I never went to see the first team play. It's not as if I was a season-ticket holder or anything like that.

"Anyway, my team became Hibs when I joined them as a 13-year-old. As a football player your only concern is the club you are playing for.

"Everyone who knows me will tell you all I care about is winning games for the team I'm playing with.

"Winning games for Hibs meant everything to me - and now winning games for Celtic is all I care about."


Taken from the *​

 

Good reading there. I like the way he has to distance himself from the Rangers supporter tag. Sounded open and honest, lets hope he gives us his all and grows into a star.

 

I hope WGS plays him in the middle cos Naka,Riordan and McGeady are better wingers. Think Brown will become an instrumental part of the team in years to come
