    hope its true then this will all wash over. If he hasnt apologised he is a real * though with a lot of growing up to do.

    He has no right to question a guy with the best domestic and CL record since Stein, who himself was a better player than he has been to date, who played for years for Man U, who has EPL winners medal with Leeds in his possession, who has won at least two European trophies with Aberdeen, who has several international finals under his belt. It will be at least a decade if he is lucky by the time Aidan will have a CV that, if he ever does - I doubt it. The guy needs to show some respect for Strachan who arguably the finest Scottish winger of the last 30 years and who is in a position to really help McGeadys game (which still needs a lot of work IMO)

    Fair enough if McGeadys done the right thing & apologised.
    Doesnt mean he'll be playing first team football again though, he could be hit with the same treatment Riordan got?
    Hope thats not the case though.

    What I have been told is this.

    After the game there was no ripping into Brown and Caldwell as told in the papers. Brown walked in and WGS told him

    'good fitness but need to work on first touch still.'
    Caldwell got told

    'good fitness passing poor.'

    McGeady walked in and was told

    'still a greedy wee *'

    After that McGeady did rip at him. Told him that he didnt say anything about his tactics when we got beat off hibs and did start to get personal. Big Mick tried to jump in and Mcgeady told him he was an * licker and thats how he is the captain and to shut up. After much shouting WGS walked out and sent in Pendrey. McGeady then said to Pendrey What the * you doin here, ur a * aswell.

    Supposedley WGS has bullied him for the three years he has been there but Tommy Burns was always there for McGeady. Hutchison and O'Dea get the same treatment from WGS.

    Bayern have supposedley had a 12 mill Euro bid knocked back because McGeady wont sign a confidentiality agreement. He wants to let everyone know what has happened when he leaves. And he ismeant to be leaving, defo.

    No chance they've bid £11.5 million for him.

    The board would accept significantly less than that imo, which is why I'd think Bayern wouldn't be coming in with initial bids that high.

    From what I have been told he has been getting kinda bullied since WGS started. He has been gettng picked on and now it has kinda came to a head. Have none of you been bullied or felt you were being bullied at work? Have you ever spoken back?

    I know that I have and I have told them what I thought. Dont see any difference here. Celtic have treated the situation as a normal working environment by using Employment law against him so we should treat it as the same. It was an employee cracking after years of treatment that he felt was unfair.

    Why? Because Hutton was a £9mill player? Clubs bid silly money at times. I am only telling what I know and heard.

    The only reason that the bid was rejected was because McGeady woud not sign a confidentiality agreement that would forbid him from speaking about his time at Celtic. Balde is in the same situation. Celtic wont pay him off unless he signs the same thing.

    A member of the family that knows McGeadys dad. I got told at the end of Nov that a big club in Europe were after him by the same person.

    That argument always gets brought up but Hutton is one of the best right backs in Britain, comment attributed to Sir Alex Ferguson.

    McGeady, for all he is a cracking player, is not in the same league as; Ronaldo, Joe Cole, Ashley Young, Walcott etc etc
