I see conflicting Celtic transfer strategies at play and board have five weeks to get back on Brendan Rodgers' wavelength
Jacko told Hotline Live that the Parkhead hierarchy face a losing battle if they don't match their manager's ambition The Celtic board have five weeks to match Brendan Rodgers ' ambition or they could be facing a losing battle when it comes to the boss signing a new contract. Seemingly competing transfer strategies at Parkhead were discussed on Record Sport's Hotline Live tonight, and our man Keith Jackson reckons things could come to a head if Rodgers feels those above him have played it safe with signings. The champions splashed £26million on new faces last summer as Rodgers was well backed to bring in the Bhoys he wanted. Arne Engels was a club record fee with Adam Idah not far behind, while Auston Trusty wasn't exactly cheap at £6million. The trio helped deliver two trophies and crucially for Rodgers, progression in the Champions League. but not everyone is sold on the decision to spend big given what they've seen. And Keith suspects the Parkhead hierarchy have perhaps started to revert back to a more frugal policy this summer, which if it continues with Celtic having a playoff showdown to negotiate to unlock the Champions League riches this season, then this could be Rodgers' last at the helm with his deal up in the summer. "They just need to match his ambition," he said. "I don't think there's a number that Celtic need to spend above it or below it and that would change anything. "It's entirely a matter of Brendan Rodgers identifying the players he believes will make his first team stronger and Champions League ready, as far as any Scottish team can be Champions League ready. "And then Celtic's board showing the same level of ambition and commitment, going out there and getting the deals done. That's the key part. "This talk of £1.5m bids (for Go Ahead Eagles winger Jakub Breum) smacks of the first-tier transfer strategy or philosophy that we think Celtic's board might be employing this summer - which gets away from how Brendan Rodgers wants it done. "That is taking more of a risk, being prepared to pay a bigger premium and hope that you get your financial return on that. "His problem is, he spent £26m last summer and I'm not sure that any one of the three players Celtic signed would turn a profit if the board decided to sell them tomorrow. "That's where it conflicts with the well-known model that Celtic's board have employed over the years. "They went a different way last summer, but Brendan Rodgers can conversely point to the amount of money they got in through the Champions League to justify that that money was spent. "There's a lot of potential in Arne Engels, same with Adam Idah but he has a lot to prove this season. Aaron Trusty could have a big season, and Brendan Rodgers has proven he can improve players if he's given time to work with them. "But these are ones that count against the Brendan Rodgers model. "We now have five weeks until the end of the transfer window, and these will be five make-or-break weeks in terms of Brendan Rodgers and his relationship with the Celtic board. Not so much personal relationship, but his working relationship. "They will have to show signs before the end of this transfer window that they are prepared to match his ambition. If they don't do that, then persuading Brendan Rodgers to commit for the longer haul is going to be difficult."

Ice cream giant confirms it's discontinued beloved Häagen-Dazs dupe
Supermarkets axe more fan favourites, leaving loyal shoppers shocked and disappointed again Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) ICE CREAM lovers have been left gutted after a much-loved supermarket version of Häagen‑Dazs was quietly pulled from shelves. Shoppers across the UK have noticed the popular own-brand dupe has vanished, sparking outrage on social media. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 Halo Top Strawberry Cheesecake has shoppers searching far and wide 3 But now it's nowhere to be found- and shoppers are furious One user wrote on X: "I think it got discontinued in the UK. "I just checked every single supermarket website and nowhere has it and tbf I haven't seen it in store for so long so Im gonna have to get haagen-dazs one but thats like 800cal for the whole tub omg just shoot me". The frozen favourite had built a loyal fan base for offering a similar taste to Haagen-Dazs at a much cheaper price. But now it's nowhere to be found- and shoppers are furious. Fans flocked online to share their frustration. One said: "I've noticed they've been missing lately." Another added: "Bring it back NOW." Others were tagging friends, trying to get supermarkets' attention and urging them to reinstate the cult classic." It's not the first time shoppers have been left reeling after a supermarket staple quietly disappeared. In recent months, several popular products have been discontinued without warning – and customers aren't happy. Weetabix recently scrapped its Alpen Light and Delight cereal bars, leaving snack lovers scrambling for alternatives. Many said they relied on the bars as a quick, low-calorie breakfast option. Meanwhile, Aldi sent crisp fans into meltdown after removing its Specially Selected Prawn Cocktail flavour. The gourmet snack had a devoted following, with shoppers calling it 'addictive' – but it was pulled from shelves with little explanation. Sainsbury's also axed its Plant Pioneer Meat-Free Steaks, a go-to for vegan and veggie customers. The move came as a shock to many who saw them as a reliable meat alternative during the weekly shop. There's been growing concern among shoppers that brands and supermarkets are trimming product ranges, often without proper notice. Some believe it's down to rising costs, while others blame changing customer habits or tighter regulations.

New funding to resolve gender 'injustice' in Scottish golf
Scotland's most decorated female golfer, Catriona Matthew, played a key role in advising both the foundation and Scottish Golf on bringing the programme to fruition. Read more: "Experience has taught me that making that step from the top of the amateur game into the professional ranks can be tough a transition," Ms Matthew said. "We all want to see more Scots competing at the top of the women's game and this programme is designed to help bridge the gap for young professionals. "I know from captaining both Lorna and Hannah in last year's Curtis Cup that they are players with a bright future, and we all want to help them reach their full potential. By putting in place this programme and laying down strong foundations of support, my sincere hope is that many more aspiring Scottish players will follow Hannah and Lorna and benefit in the years ahead." The new programme comes on the back of Scottish Golf being able to send squads out to the Bahamas over the past two years through receiving support from the Sean Connery Foundation, which was established in 2020 to reflect the James Bond actor's passions and guiding principles. Read more: "He always wanted to champion talented people who couldn't otherwise get a break, backing excellence in need," his son Stephane Connery said. "Sean greatly admired the women's game, and he saw an injustice in how little attention it got in comparison to the men's." As part of Scottish Golf's broader "Women and Girls Strategy", a separate three-year fund is being established to support employment by its member clubs of full or part-time dedicated to growing and retaining female membership. Clubs looking to welcome more women and girls, and those seeking to build momentum and growth in female participation, will be eligible for support. The phased investment from the fund will be matched by the clubs. A further "Club Education Fund" targeted specifically at the female workforce is being established to upskill and retain employees within golf. Its ambition is to get more women into leadership, managerial and key decision-making positions within clubs.
