    Imagine him as an impact sub, would be absolutely deadly.

    He's such a skillful and tenacious player. I've been hoping we could get him but didn't think it would happen in January. He's such a troublemaker for any defence.

    I dont see the trouble in signing this player for 60k. Its a bargain.

    Not sure that Flood will make that much of an impact at Celtic. He has done well for Dundee United but I don't see him as being as influential or having the impact Robson did when he came last season. But I would think given he is already well established in the spl with 70 games for Dundee United under his belt he represents a very good gamble at only 60,000. Certainly he should provide very legit depth off the bench and cover for the rest of this season. At 23 too he may well flourish and develop like McDonald did when he came here. So there is a lot of upside to this signing and really almost no down side.

    Spot on m8 i think his tenacity is his biggest asset, and working with a top coach like strachan his technical ability will improve ten fold. Good signing.

    Also, people are moaning at the money he cost but did i not read somewhere he only has 6 months left on his contract at Cardiff? If that's the case then obviously we would get him at a cut price. If he was on a four year he'd be worth a couple of million i reckon.

    not a 'wow' signing for me. but were we ever going to sign one in this window? or in this economic downturn?

    no judgement on the lad though until he dons the Hoops. it will be interesting to see what WGS does with Flood tomorrow.

    still holding out for a left back...

    I like this lads tenacity and he always seems to be smiling, looking like he is enjoying what he is doing, something we don't see nowadays.
    I do hope he makes it.

    Flood is now a Celtic player.
    It's been announced on the OS and he may be in the squad for tomorrow's game.
    He's a big Celtic fan and I think it's a good move for him and Celtic.

    The fact he is a fan of the club could see the lad raise his game and a to the squad someone who truly plays for the jersey which is never a bad thing
