Let's face it ... Celtic haven't got the dosh to get Bellamy on loan ... even though they have had talks with the former Toon striker and Man City would rather get him out of the Premiership.
He is a player who tends to "come back and hurt you" when he moves to another club, and City would love to send him out of the way ... up there where "men are men and sheep are nervous" ... to Chilly Jockoland.
The Tims are keen to take the Welshman back to Celtic Park but can only pay £1million for the loan transfer and then £20,000 a week, well short of what City and the player are demanding.
Bellamy is wanted at White Hart Lane by Tottenham and the Mackems are said to be sniffing around with cash in hand from the sale of their star striker.
But the Newcastle interest ... IF IT IS GENUINE ... is very interesting indeed!
