    He had a great 1st season but last season he was poor and he's picked up from where he left off last season this season. I just think if people can have a go at Fortune for not scoring and he's only played a couple of games why is McDonald not getting slated for his poor performances over the last year and a bit?

    The reason that Celtic bought Fortune was because the board wouldnt give Mogga the money to buy Alfonso Alves for £5m.

    I can't remember hearing about rumours of Alfonso Alves, but if you want to talk about donkeys, Alfonso is a good place to start.

    I really cant wait unitl this guy rams every last word down some peoples throats.

    He didnt play well on Tuesday but none of the strikers did.

    This guy has pace, power and can hold up the ball, give him a chance for * sake.

    He's not a striker, he's a forward. If you can't understand the difference in that then there's no point in debating it at all.

    New country, new level of expectations, little time to adapt, 4 competitive games played, he's set up 3 crucial goals despite not yet getting a full 90 minutes, and apparently he's a dud.

    Gies peace.

    The guys job is to bring others into the game. Watch what happens. He drifts out wide, takes the defender with him, then the winger cuts inside. Maloney and McGeady, through goals and assists, can more than make up for Fortune not being a lethal goalscorer through this.

    well today is the day we get to see the first fortune goal for the hoops and the confidance that will come with it. think we all agree he's had a frustrating start but overall done well against aberdeen helped make the space for mcgeady to come off the wing and score 2goals and done well for the 3rd.just a pity he couldnt come on & score a couple against an arsenal side that was difficult to create chances against eh. i dont know the answer to this & would like to knobut how many goals has boyd scored in preseason to now?
