We're we interested in him previously? Name rings a bell.

Aye delighted to have him come aboard

Edit: he's the big young lad that neymar wouldn't shake hands with

A great signing, Cammy Ballantyne back to Montrose too.

Beharder · 16/3/2018 6:32 pm

good signing
another player who likes a tackle
At this rate we are getting close to the day when we kick a team off the park

Billy_Hainey · 16/3/2018 6:40 pm

He's no the Celtic player that squared up to Neymar is he no?

Ingin-Bhajis · 16/3/2018 6:51 pm

That’s him.

JerryDungle · 16/3/2018 7:03 pm

An actual right back? Thank god, hopefully we never have to see Murdoch masquerade as a football player ever again.

Ralston seems to be quite highly rated at Celtic, hopefully he falls into the Charlie Mulgrew cateogory rather than the Jim O'Brien one.

very good signing this. just a pity we couldn't have signed him in early January.
spoke to a lad I work with tim season ticket holder hes fuming said he should be playing for them every week.
very highly thought of player from them,

LawrenceLives · 16/3/2018 8:15 pm

This is a great signing ... Celtic fan pal thinks he's magic but thinks it's good for him to go on loan and get regular games. He said he watched him get caught out of position a few times and the odd stray pass, but that's in a team winning almost every week.

... and I Iiked him ever since he booted Neymar.

16/3/2018 8:31 pm

I know he's only a loanee and it's only for 12/14/16/18 games (I've done the arithmetic) but I can't remember the last time I was so pleased with a new player coming in.

PatReilly · 16/3/2018 9:00 pm

Csaba will probably play him at left midfield.

Tek · 16/3/2018 9:40 pm

Getting good feedback from Celtic supporting friends who all seem to rate him as a good player.

16/3/2018 9:44 pm

I think the boy can dig like fuck too.

sorry - ****
didn't realise the Towers don't have a sweary check

A good friend of mine is the ex-Celtic Academy physio who knew a lot of the Celtic players now in the first team (and boys like James Keatings etc).

Asked his opinion of Ralston and he said that whilst he's not the silkiest of players he's a big and strong athlete who gets stuck in and he would actually play him at Right Back ahead of Mikael Lustig.

Another couple of Tims i know saying similiar.

Sounds promising.👌

exactly what boy I work with said. and a few other jungle jims are saying the same.

Lets hope he does a job for us.

Tek · 17/3/2018 2:51 am

Supposedly the boy is ultra fit too btw.

17/3/2018 9:27 am

I know it's only for a dozen games or more but if I've been more Dundee United about an incoming player at Tannadice in the last three seasons I can't remember who it is

It's been our weak link for two season right back, Murdoch has done his best but he's never your first choice right back but a decent stand in when your first pick gets injured suspended.

It will offer us a bit of balance and hopefully a bit of a threat down the right hand side of the park which will also take a bit of pressure of Robson and King.

Good luck to the lad.

Richs2Rags · 17/3/2018 10:38 am

Hope the gelling process is quick and he can drag our mob up to his level, and not the other way about. But really happy with this piece of business.

Agreed. It would be the last loan from Celtic if we drag the laddie down to our level.

Even me the eternal pessimist is feeling positive about this signing but the caveat is no use playing the dross football and formations with better quality players, it won’t work. Csaba’s got build on the Queens performance and go after opponents from the start

17/3/2018 3:17 pm

On the bench today

lifesanocean · 17/3/2018 6:09 pm

Sits on the bench for 90 minutes. Nonsense. Another Taylor signing that Czaba refuses to play then?

SuperMario · 17/3/2018 6:23 pm

Not met the team never mind train, will be playing Tuesday 100%
