Enjoyed the show tonight. It's the perfect remedy for starved celtic fans HH

Apparently he was a talented cross country runner in his youth before concentrating on “soccer” so should have a good engine getting up and down the right wing for us .🍀

Canadian and a fan of CF Montréal (Johnston's old team) here. The analysis is generally spot on, but I want to add a bit on Johnston as a person on top of what has already been saying. He is not only a good guy but also a solid, smart, well-educated one (the reason he was still playing semi-pro until recently was that he wanted to finish his degree). For both CF Montréal and Canada he has been one of the go to players for the media and interacts with both the fans and the wider community. Basically, he is the kind of player who would probably step right into a coaching role when, hopefully, as late as possible, he retires. On top of being a good player, he is also a good ''organization member'', for lack of a better term. On a broader note, I do want to say thank you for the respect for Canada and the Canadian game I have seen many people, whether media or fans, who commented on Johnston's transfer gave us. Its fair to say we are still a work in progress as a Soccer nation, as we put it, so it means a lot coming from a club with such an old and rich history!

Canadian,so Scottish winters will be gravy to him.Also played ice hockey,and as such doesn't mind a challenge."I love a body check" to quote him.I think this will be a very good match.

Joe Kennaway, the great goalkeeper of the Exhibition Cup winning team played for Canada.

[@larryhenryjr1886]

haha thank you sir

[@dimsum9025]

Great show Hamish nice to see another American that knows something about futbol. Looks like we are going to have a different team after the break? Used to be a lot of Boston lads around here. They do have the best yankland accent. Baah= bar, caah=car😆 etc etc. I'm pumped to see what the team looks like after the break and to pile on the agony on servantco HH i☘️💚🍀

[@larryhenryjr1886]

appreciate the support!

[@JoP444]

Thanks for the much needed content Hamish 🙏 Thanks Larry for the insight. I just don't want him ousting Ronraldo 💚 Hoping JJ is offskie if Johnson works out. Great interview guys. HH to all at 67HailHail 🍀 💚 ☘️

[@larryhenryjr1886]

appreciate the support!

[@jotaonthewing9973]

I still think Ralston is good enough to take the number 1 spot.

[@undercoverbrother67]

I just hope he can recover from the whole "British household" gaff.

[@chrisd3211]

Canada has a high number of Protestants an his ma is from NI 🤷‍♂️ Middle name is William lol but still I welcome him just as long as he’s dedicated to us an the performances are there 👌 we really do welcome everyone not just saying it as a slogan to the media while at the same time telling players no to make the sign of the cross 👀🤦‍♂️

[@dimsum9025]

@@chrisd3211 spot on mate! all the so called common wealth had our kind and their kind exported our kind as the penal fill or fleeing for a better chance, their kind to administer. Then many mix or change colors once they stew over there. Same as yankland. Many forget where they came from as well after a few generations. HH☘️💚🍀

[@misterc5783]

Can’t say I care about that. But that’s just me.

[@robmitchell670]

WE need a couple of world class players

[@kevinyeung4964]

The dilemma is if JJ doesn’t move, we now have 3 rbs although AJ did say he can play at CB. My gut tells me JJ has said he wants a move which is why we have acted so quickly.

[@jamescotter1888]

Juranovic looks to be off .. hence signing Johnson. As always .. if players heads get turned n they want to go .. then catch yie

[@tealing6660]

Hope Alistair Johnstone stays away from the after training booze happenings down fall of many players playing in Scotland.Most top players nowadays don’t drink during their playing days I’m hoping he’s one Hail Hail

[@stephenwalker850]

R u secret orange bosh

[@patsanters2741]

Vikers is not a great defender he is ordinary but again ive seen Celtics best central defenders perform from way back in mid to late 60s and throughout the 70s and 80s ..

[@jamescotter1888]

I disagree Pat CCV been solid for us mate

[@stephenpatton703]

[@stephenwalker850]
