    There's zero chance this is true. Ange's job is to win Celtic matches.

    It's not been handled well by Ange and the Celtic Board. I'm fucken bealing that we have driven the top goalscorer out of the club for the sake of a few bob more.
    Now we have to run the injury gauntlet with Kyogo and a newcomer Oh for the rest of what is a definitive season.

    There's no 'probably' about it.

    GG deserved more minutes this season. For whatever reason, he hasn't got them.

    been handled perfectly fine by Ange and Celtic player got offered a significant pay rise turned it down being a greedy * wanting much more due to new agent.

    Celtic and Ange have called his bluff now he’s getting a bang average move for more cash that’s on him not Celtic or Ange.

    would be better if you didn’t comment going forward

    When I want your advice I will ask for it mate.
    You conveniently forgetting Kyogo would never have scored at Ibrox, if big GG hadn't made the opening for him ?
    He was totally ineffective up until the point GG came on the field of play.
    It's not about greed, that is a smokescreen.

    Aye no the best but he wasn’t gonna go for big money unfortunately.

    should have got at least 5 or 6 for him

    Yeah, I would've been happier and accepted that. £3.5m with add ons seems like a deal I'd be happy with if we were the ones signing, not the other way around.

    I'm personally glad we've made a profit on someone who wanted out. With Oh in he would have got less time and probably be a right * about it. Don't need that in the dressing room. At least we can move on and maybe sign a new striker.

    Fee is a disappointment. But feel that if this wasn't being forced by himself and agent and a club was just interested the fee would have been set much higher. We're just trying to get him gone now

    That’s a fair point better to get him out now before he potentially brings the dressing room down

    actually was Mooy who made the run and Jotas cut back GG had shot blocked hardly done the work for the goal block landed at Kyogo who buried it. I’m guessing the facts don't suit your agenda though it was.

    How is not about greed got offered 7K more a week turned it down and wanted double that 14K a week extra was never getting that. It’s all about greed get out of your fantasy world thinking there is some agenda here

    Two minutes to go at Ibrox, we are heading for defeat. GG on as sub, his presence alone committs three Hun defenders to
    cover him, the block conveniently falls at Kyogo's feet. Good finish right enough.

    The point being Kyogo on his own is ineffective against the Ranger's defence. It's been proven time and time again previously.
    Finding a formula to have Kyogo and GG in the same team, was something Ange was sadly unwilling to entertain, until his hand was forced at Ibrox, when we were staring defeat in the face.
    How can you fail to see that ?

    And you believe all the Fairytale wage increase offers tales getting hawked about on Kerrydale and the Cuddleboard ?
    Who is the fantasist now ?

    There's probably a lot of stuff that we will never get to know re this saga. I liked the big man and would have loved to have seen him stay - even till the end of the season at least however, there must have been something far wrong - whether it be wages, the player himself wanting to leave due to lack of play time or perhaps maybe big Ange just didn't fancy him - it's happened and we will soldier on. The main thing for me though is that I trust big Ange 100% and I'm pretty sure that if he wanted GG to stay then he would have pulled out all the stops to enable that.

    If you haven't realised it's literally the role of any good ST to be in the right position to convert a chance like that..

    Nothing "convenient" about it and a lesser player would have missed it.

    Top goal scorer? He has 26 goals for Celtic v Kyogos 40. He wasn't even top scorer last season (17 v 20 for Kyogo) and he has 2 assists to Kyogos 7, which tells it's own story.

    Away and stop talking pish.
