Adam Idah

Goodluck to him, just didnt have the mentality required...hence his * collapsing.

 

Adam Idah’s proposed move to Swansea still wasn’t resolved by the time Rodgers spoke after the match at Ibrox, with the manager, again, appearing bemused by the situation.

“I've got no explanation for it,” he said.

“It's not Adam's fault, but hopefully that will be cleared up [soon].

“In terms of all of that, you just have to narrow in your focus on what you can control. Of course, it's not been ideal for Adam and for the club, but we still have to look beyond that.

 

All the best Adam, scored some important goals. Two pens against Hibs, goal against Young Boys and the Scottish Cup final at the death. All the best going forward. Clearly unfortunately not good enough to be leading our line.

 

In terms of Adam, Brendan, fans are wondering why Adam was allowed to even travel to Swansea, not being in the matchday squad, without a replacement coming in. Can you understand their amusement or bemusement at that?

No, I've got no explanation for it. I think that it's not Adam's fault or anything.

Hopefully, that will be cleared up by today.

Do you expect him to still be a Celtic player come the end of the window tomorrow?

I don't know.

You said he wouldn't be allowed to leave unless you had those guarantees that he would be replaced. Have you had those guarantees yet that he would be replaced?

I haven't spoken to anyone since we left yesterday.

We left and have been in the hotel preparing for the game, and obviously, nothing today. So I'll pretty much get an update on where we're at once we leave here.

 

Rumour that Swansea gave us a ultimatum that they'd withdraw from the deal if he played today.

* bless Swansea if that's the case.

 

Absolute *, heads should roll Tuesday morning.

 

Has he signed for Swansea yet?

 

I said it a few weeks ago. I don't think Nicholson survives this.

It's clearly been a disaster and pressure is on, usually when that's the case Desmond looks for a scapegoat to take a bit of the heat off.

 

Zero accountability in this club. Silence until a token line is mentioned at the AGM.

 

Going to Cardiff instead

 

So, Idah is being sold over Rodgers' objections before a replacement has been secured, if I understand this correctly?

 

Great city for a stag pal.

 

Good luck to him, as long as he is off the books and hopefully the club buy a decent forward pronto.

 

It’s a 5 at best

 

They are Anti-English, what's not to like.

 

To be fair every * hates the English

 

I agree. IMHO I think he is just one of those players who didn't have the mentality to be a big player at Celtic. But he gave us some big moments and I think if hopefully his move to Swansea gets done he can do well in the lower intensity environment there.

 

I'm sorry it didn't work out , but when we initially signed him on loan, no one was optimistic at all. He had a couple small purple patches during the loan and that was it. I'm more relieved he's gone than any other player in recent years
