Thread: Euro blow for Celts & Fortune

Celtic will be without striker Marc-Antoine Fortune for next week's Europa League match with Hapoel Tel Aviv.

And the summer signing could also miss the first Old F**m derby of the season at the beginning of October.

Fortune on Wednesday underwent a scan on a knee injury he picked up in the Champions League defeat by Arsenal and will be missing for several weeks.

Republic of Ireland midfielder Aiden McGeady is already suspended for Celtic's match against United.

Oh for fuck sake.

Samaras better get his act together and learn how to pass or were fucked.

Fucking nightmare!

First Boruc, now this, for fucks sake.

We are far too short up front to be losing anybody at the moment as well.

Paul McGowan might be looking at a game soon I reckon.

Fucking great, looked like he was starting to settle in as well.

Can Zheng Zhi play up front?

Well then Samaras will be starting

I blame the board for this.

We are in the exact same position as last season, one of our strikers gets injured and we are fucked for cover up front.

Had we brought in another striker… something we should have done over the summer, then I wouldn’t be too worried.

What happens if McDonald now gets injured… Samantha up front with Killen?

Shocking how short we are.

Squad is poor enough as it is. We don’t need the injuries to pile up.

Big blow, hope sammy proves himself now he looks to Be the replacement

Fuck sake. :FP:

Oh great guns gaylord better get with playing football and forget about auditioning for pantene pro v

McGeady is suspended anyway so thats nothing, Leo Beenhakker expects Boruc to be fit tomorrow so that dosent count, Brown to play against the dutch for scotland tomorrow so thats ok. Fortune will be a big miss no doubt as we missed him pulling defenders out wide against hibs and looked a little toothless in attack. As long as hes fit for the huns game we will be ok.

For fuck sake you couldn't make it up. How long has the transfer window been shut? A week? Am goanny stick my neck out and say within another week maybe two, McDonald is goanny pick up an injury. In fact i guarantee it. And it's the footballing gods pulling the strings with big smiles on their faces shaking their heads going "fuckin idiots, they knew they were short up front, why do they always leave themselves short? "
