saintstr1 Posted 22 September, 2012 Posted 22 September, 2012 Celtic fans dont rate him that highly BO££OCKS , Celtic fans rated him very highly and very dissappointed when he moved on , he was hounded out of Glasgow by certain factions because of his religious beliefs, As with the majority of Polish he is a strong catholic but that has nothing to do with his great ability as a Footballer. IMO a great signing for the club, top class international Goalie.

for_heaven's_Saint Posted 22 September, 2012 Posted 22 September, 2012 Wonder why he left Fiorentina?
Smirking_Saint Posted 22 September, 2012 Posted 22 September, 2012 Holy **** I just moticed this ?!!!! Great signing Where is MLG and his 'do they not know we cant sign anyone' crap ?
Crouchie Crouchie Posted 22 September, 2012 Posted 22 September, 2012 Just got a text from a celtic supporting mate who said we've guaranteed survival with this signing and he'll be one of the best keepers in the prem for us. here's hoping
Glasgow_Saint Posted 22 September, 2012 Posted 22 September, 2012 Oh no http://m.youtube.com/?reason=8&rdm=611#/watch?v=9q41xhOMMUk&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3D9q41xhOMMUk&gl=GB
Glasgow_Saint Posted 22 September, 2012 Posted 22 September, 2012 Double doh http://m.youtube.com/?reason=8&rdm=9994#/watch?v=oerpvklhVdY&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DoerpvklhVdY&gl=GB
Hatch Posted 22 September, 2012 Posted 22 September, 2012 Poor Davis, from first choice to third choice in a matter of days.
Cheese on Toast Posted 22 September, 2012 Posted 22 September, 2012 I'm receiving mixed messages here D:
LatvianTolix Posted 22 September, 2012 Posted 22 September, 2012 Hey honey we just signed a Polish keeper... Oh really who? Arthur Borruck. Who? Oh sorry Artur Borutsch. You've got to be kidding me. What? **** me Borutsch? Saints? You are kidding right? No honey **** me Borutsch at Saints? Seems the Poles rate him then He should be pronounced as Boruts!!! not Borutsch or whatever. Boruts as was Rudi Skatsel, not Skatchel!!!!
Saint-Armstrong Posted 22 September, 2012 Author Posted 22 September, 2012 As I said, Polish mate is a Saints fan and well into his Polish football. When I said I'd seen us linked to Boruc he said "**** off, no way would he join Saints - if we get him, we are once again batting above our average with the signings"
SNSUN Posted 22 September, 2012 Posted 22 September, 2012 This is a fantastic signing. Just read that Stephen Warnock has gone to Bolton on loan. Always rated him. Shame we're not allowed to sign players on loan as he could've done a great job at LB for us. Paul Lambert has gone nuts. Villa's defence looked shocking today and they loan out a class LB. Nuts. only 32, kept 14 clean sheets last season for Fiorentina 132 clean sheets in 293 career appearances (source Wiki) is a fantastic statistic for a 'keeper. Holy **** I just moticed this ?!!!! Great signing Where is MLG and his 'do they not know we cant sign anyone' crap ? Any spaces left for a LB now? :-)
Lighthouse Posted 22 September, 2012 Posted 22 September, 2012 To be fair half those clean sheets are against teams like Motherwell and Dundee Utd.
Saint J 77 Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 The Holy Goalie, I am sure Markus would have of approved
Red Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 Has a reputation for being MENTAL Well you should know !
paulwantsapint Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 Has a reputation for being MENTAL Are not all great keepers mental or eccentric Anyone know if Celtic had any clean/non racist/sectarian chants for AB
dubai_phil Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 He should be pronounced as Boruts!!! not Borutsch or whatever. Boruts as was Rudi Skatsel, not Skatchel!!!! yes but the darned Poles have this sort of impossible to write/type sound of a z that can sound like a bee with a shhh and a tsk in it So it ain't quite a tsch sound but that was as good as I could spell it after watching the game in the pub and then seeing this news:)
dubai_phil Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 Hahaha a legend already http://www.arturboruc.com/index.php?l=en Love the ads on his website [h=3]Drinking Gifts are Useful Gifts for Men[/h] Any man could use a good drink.

Dark Munster Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 If we sign a good left back and extra CB in january what the fck will we moan about? Not signing them in August?
Saint Martini Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 Read this and apologise to me via pm once and for all http://www.talkceltic.net/forum/showthread.php?t=127335&page=2 Some absolute tosser on a Southampton forum keeps linking people to this thread claiming that "Celtic fans don't rate him that highly" then again why would I care about poor club that is just going to get relegated, in saying that I can't wait to see the big man in action again and if anyone prevents them getting relegated it will be him. Seems you've made yourself unpopular there in no-time..... Now be a good boy and apologize to saintstr1.
david in sweden Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 I think we've seen Kelvin Davis play his last game for Saints. . I'm not sure about that, but obviously Boruc will be No.1 man now, and Gazzaniga has seen himself as a future contender for that spot.
david in sweden Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 Good age for a keeper, hoped we'd sign someone like that, experienced but easily with 5 years in them. 1 year deal but I imagine that's to see if it works out for both parties. If he does well he'll probably stay. agree totally, Adrians.... just the sort of keeper I wanted us to sign in the summer, when people were saying that it was wrong to diss KD. I don't think we've seen the last of Kelvin, ( a good club man by any standards), but if Artur is anywhere near as good as he was in his Celtic days - we've found another "match-winner " . I know that the You Tube clips are always showing their better sides, but isn't there a little sense of Antti Niemi about him?. I think so.
david in sweden Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 At Celtic, Boruc was at the centre of many controversies. Due to his custom of blessing himself before games, he was known as "The Holy Goalie" from WIKI Should be a good Saint then! if it helped his career as much as when I've seen him play, I suggest the rest of the Saints squad learn to do it, too !
Miltonaggro Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 agree totally, Adrians.... just the sort of keeper I wanted us to sign in the summer, when people were saying that it was wrong to diss KD. I don't think we've seen the last of Kelvin, ( a good club man by any standards), but if Artur is anywhere near as good as he was in his Celtic days - we've found another "match-winner " . I know that the You Tube clips are always showing their better sides, but isn't there a little sense of Antti Niemi about him?. I think so. My thoughts exactly, a good chance of Neimi mark two, and a lot of those recent performances and clean sheets were against the better Italian clubs...
Stubby Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 BO££OCKS , Celtic fans rated him very highly and very dissappointed when he moved on , he was hounded out of Glasgow by certain factions because of his religious beliefs, As with the majority of Polish he is a strong catholic but that has nothing to do with his great ability as a Footballer.

Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 The last player we got from Fiorentina was Papa Waigo. I hope Boruc is better at staying onside.
Badger Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 The last player we got from Fiorentina was Papa Waigo. I hope Boruc is better at staying onside. And the last Pole we had in goal proved to be a clown. I'm sure Artur is far better . I don't want to see a backpage headline reading: "Artur drops a Boruc!"
Saint86 Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 Slow down. I don't want to get excited but to my memory, this guys is decking class. One of the best keepers outside of the Buffon etc grouping. Why the hell have we only given him a 1 season contract. He has the potential to be the best keeper we've ha din recent times. Looks crazy to boot!,!
Crab Lungs Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 Hahaha a legend already http://www.arturboruc.com/index.php?l=en Love the ads on his website And no I haven't been given a translation of the rest of it (yet) He also offers free advice on moving to Houston and CD interest rates. I love this guy.
Thedelldays Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 he is head mental.....but very happy to sign him..would have been happy if we paid a decent fee, so getting him for free is a bonus
Glasgow_Saint Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 Wonder what his sign on fee is & wages?
Shroppie Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 Celtic fans dont rate him that highly They didn't rate Jos either, which casts a little doubt on their judgement maybe?
Thedelldays Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 Wonder what his sign on fee is & wages? top dollar.....i x'pect
Thedelldays Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 hahaha [TABLE=class: tborder, width: 100%, align: center] [TR] [TD=class: alt1, bgcolor: #FFFFFF]Good luck to him at the Hamptons. Loved him at Celtic used to touch myself violently to montages of him at Celtic [/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE]
Window Cleaner Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 They didn't rate Jos either, which casts a little doubt on their judgement maybe? don't know, I don't think Jos has shown he can step up to the PL as yet. Fonte looked a lot better with Yoshida than he has with Jos. Then again that could be about the quality of the opposition.
Saint Fan CaM Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 Welcome to Artur - looks to be a surprising and astute signing. I suspect the years contract was his choice perhaps, or that we've not had enough time to evaluate his personality which appears to be a big factor in making decisions on players. Let's hope he does well for us.
Chez Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 am I allowed to say that the above youtube clips don't impress me all that much? Hope he is Niemi-esq
Cabrone Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 Brilliant, finally got what appears to be a class GK. If he's anywhere as good as Niemi then our defence will be getting a real shot in the arm and the team will have saved a pile of points. One thing I noticed from the videos is that he seems to like to push the ball back into play in a lot of his saves. Looks like our defenders will have to be sharp on clearing the ball. Hopefully he'll go straight into the team.
simondo Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 don't know, I don't think Jos has shown he can step up to the PL as yet. Fonte looked a lot better with Yoshida than he has with Jos. Then again that could be about the quality of the opposition. Tbh though they were up against city Manu & the arse - any CB pairing is gonna look fragile against that lot
Cheese on Toast Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 And the last Pole we had in goal proved to be a clown. I'm sure Artur is far better . I don't want to see a backpage headline reading: "Artur drops a Boruc!" A tad harsh on Bartosz I think
Cheese on Toast Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 Will he be our number 1 or will Gazzaniga be keeping it?
S-Clarke Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 Listening to Adkins, he said that ''Boruc comes in as our number 3 keeper"
Cheese on Toast Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 Listening to Adkins, he said that ''Boruc comes in as our number 3 keeper" But surely we won't see Gazza starting and Davis on the bench when we've Boruc?
miserableoldgit Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 Listening to Adkins, he said that ''Boruc comes in as our number 3 keeper" Might be wrong but I thought that he said "our third keeper" meaning, I assumed, that we now have three.
Stu Man Do Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 Listening to Adkins, he said that ''Boruc comes in as our number 3 keeper" I suspect what he means by that is that Boruc is currently number 3 on merit and will have to prove he is the best keeper here to be our number 1. Hardly good team building to tell the other 2 that they have no chance!
Turkish Posted 23 September, 2012 Posted 23 September, 2012 He won't have played for months so will need a few weeks training to get himself in shape I'd imagine. I'm sure he'll be our first choice come end of October though.
