Farting for ENGLAND!!!
Mark McGhee was signing my daughter's programme yesterday when a guy came up and asked him if there was any truth in the " Virgo leaving rumour" to which MM replied "what have you heard?"
The guy said"that he's going to Southampton"
MM replied "no way"
Just a thought......................if Virgs was going nowhere, then MM would probably have said just that, instead of saying "what have you heard?"
I felt a bit suspicious at the time that MM was holding something back, and now seeing this post..............i'm a tad worried we may have seen the last of Virgs

Celtic would want Du Wei on trial
Not sure he would get first team football:

China defender Du Wei is likely to be asked to undergo a trial period before winning himself a move to Celtic.
Celtic manager Gordon Strachan has been told of the 23-year-old's availability for about £800,000.
The 6ft 4in Shanghai Shenhua centre-half would provide competition for Bobo Balde and Stan Varga.
Strachan had decided against pursuing former Portsmouth and West Ham defender Sebastien Schemmel after a trial spell.
But the former Southampton manager is anxious to bring players in before the Champions League signing deadline on Thursday.
"I hope to have two more players in by the end of the week," he said after Saturday's draw with Fulham.
Du Wei in action for China
Reggina's Japanese midfielder, Shunsuke Nakamura, also remains a target for Strachan, who this month also had a £300,000 bid for Scotland midfielder Paul Hartley rejected by Hearts.
Southampton's versatile Paul Telfer and Aberdeen defender Alexander Diamond have also been linked with interest from Celtic Park.
Strachan appears to need convincing of Du Wei's qualities.
"I'd forgotten about him," he had said after being asked about the Chinese international. "Don't ask me his name."
Nakamura was a much more known quantity.
"Hopefully, by Thursday, we will have him and another," added Strachan.
"It would make it a lot easier on the squad.
"I am still on the outlook to bring in better players, but I might have to wait until the transfer window in January. Hopefully, we can accumulate some more money to invest again."
Strachan goes into Tuesday's friendly against Leicester City nervous of injuries as he believes that his squad is still short of numbers.

I wouldn't have thought he'd break straight into the first team but he'll develop greatly at such a big club and should establish himself as a Scotland international for years to come if it all works out well. Good luck to him.

The reason he got mixed up is because he received a text saying"Virgo is going to the scum".To most of us there is only one scum-CPFC-but the sender of the text is a Rangers fan ,who refers to Celtic as "the Scum"Yorkie said:

It would explain why we are looking at a centre half, plus there is the link between Strachan and McGhee...

its totally fair enough if people dont believe that is fine with me id probably be the same it is a bit of a random and shock transfer i was just letting a few people know, didnt no people would cry about it.
