I am so glad that as a Catholic and a Celtic fan we now have an opportunity to make the 5th of November memorable for something the polar opposite of what this day stands for at present.
Well done Eddie and the Brother Walfrid Committee.
-
Paul,
every time I read a post that I want to comment on, rangers go and screw up again, or hertz fire someo, and the discussion blasts off on another direction....:)
So, Klos. Are you saying he has appearances built into his deal?
I understood that they wanted him to ask for a transfer, so they could get a fee. Wasn't aware that they couldn't afford to pay/play him. Can you confirm/elaborate?
Thanks.
-
Naaaaaaaaaawwwwwwww !!!
Just nipped out for 5 minutes
and I missed it !
Congratulations to Gatecrasher, moi.
Gutted doesn,t begin to describe how bad I feel-
I just knew Paul had something up his sleeve for today...

From the previous thread....
"had more injections than Pete Doherty..."
-I nearly fell off my chair !
class.
Can,t make it this Saturday as I,m back on shift:(
Any CQN peeps going to camcord it/put it on your hard drive and post a link to it in time for 5.30pm ?
If I was going thats what I would do....-
Would that be the 1st CQN webcast ?
noel.

Glad to see the club officially endorsing an event such as this. Particularly with the club and other bodies efforts to stamp out bigotry in Scottish football, it is heartening to show that there is no shame in embracing your history, especially one in which brought about the worlds greatest football club. No doubt our 'friends' in the media will have a field day with it, but let them. If you know
the history...

Martybhoy, I never celebrate the 5th November, and bore anyone within earshot who discusses doing so.
Weeron, that’s right.
Parkheadcomesalford, agree to differ on this one. If they were in danger of doing well in Europe I would feel different.
Noel, the first CQN (audio) webcast will be tomorrow, assuming things go well – and what a big news day tomorrow will be here on Celtic Quick News…..
-
Rarely get the chance to post these days but always keep up to date with the discussions, well done Paul and everyone.
Saturday seems good opportunity to take AJ67, (aged 2and three quarters) for first visit to Celtic Park.
Anyone close to event organisers able to confirm that event is suitable for AJ's age group?
-
Paul-
methinks you have something really big up your sleeve...
Any chance of an approximate time-
just so I don,t go to the bathroom.....
imagine the kudos that would come with the first POST after the FIRST webcast....
I,m salivating at the thought....
:P

Paul, ever thought of doing a Podcast?
would be great to download the webcast to my iPod for the train to work.
anyone else second this?
-
Agree wholeheartedly Michael_67.Must be the only country in the world where celebration and recognition of your roots is frowned upon.must admit I am a bit surprised but very pleased at the stance taken.
-
Noel, it will be late morning /early afternoon.
Ginger Prince, the podcast will come, I have been trying this out for a wee while now privately. Content is the key, there is no point just podcasting for the sake of it (as many seem to). I’ll fire something off soon and see what reaction it gets.

A fantastic opportunity to celebrate the origins of the greatest club in the world.
On the subject of our charitable origins can I raise the point made by No2Pacey last night. One of our dear friends, St Pauli FC in Germany, is in serious financial trouble. As someone who went to the St Pauli pre-season game in Germany quite a few years ago I can say that the club and the supporters could not have been more welcoming and they really follow the Celtic ethos.
The bond between the two clubs is still as strong as ever. St Pauli fans unveiled a huge banner at a home match to congratulate Celtic when we won the title in 2004.
Surely it is not asking too much for the club to organise a trip over to Hamburg on a Champions League night next year and get St. Pauli over here for a pre-season game at Celtic Park?
I'd much rather attend these two games than travel to Newcastle to fill a millionaire footballer's pockets or watch us play Leeds Utd in a pre-season game at Celtic Park.
-
-
I will be there on Saturday with the digi camera - if I can workout how to upload a filmclip of the unveiling I'll do it.
Oh aye - what are Uilleann Pipes?
-
They connect the cistern to the bowl.

(Paul im trying to remember this is a family site)
Noel90, by the sound of things you need to find yourself a good woman (or any kinda woman, or a man even, we are after all a multi-facetted support) and take them to happy happy land a few times
If Sparky thinks (i) stan will go down there (ii) 3 mill will do it, then he needs pistol wipped out a town
Ok the squad team debate needs drawing too a close so lets finish it off
GK's

from what i can see thats two teams worth, and not too mention any new recruits... not too easy to keep that many happy with no europe

BlantyreKev - I thought it was Gaelic for Fallopian Tubes

Ottokaiser-
you should have software with your digicamera-and aUSB cable-I think.
The Uilleann Pipes are the Irish version of the bagpipes -main difference being that you play them sitting down.
Big Joe-
you will need to get one of these

What about having st pauli over on the 29th june
-
Myself and Timmy junior will definitely be there - with camera. If I get anything worth posting I'll try to learn how
As for bonfire night - don't get me started.
VCLXI from last night - didn't see the post match stuff but it would be interesting to find out what happened - Jim McLean MKII
-
Paul67 - good luck tomorrow. If all goes well you will have covered two of the five senses. Which one's next?
The big news tomorrow wouldn't include the letters MIH in that order would it?

Noel 90
Your perception of Pete Doherty as a junky who injects illegal substances - where does that come from I wonder - would it be the very same Tabloids we ridicule when they print football stuff we don’t like? So the anti Celtic stuff is made up but everything else is True?
Give the guy a break - he could be a Celtic fan for all you know.
-
Thanx for that Noel, i have just emailed that picture to everyone i know :)
-
Quinn has a neck of solid brass. Yet again it takes the fans to honour those worth honouring. The club should have commisioned a statue of Jock Stein many a year ago, and jinky should have one having been voted our greatest ever player, but as usual, the club are too tight to bother. No doubt when the wee mans time is up there will be a clamour for a memorial, but something should be done now.
-
Pete Doherty is a QPR fan.
And an erse.
-
Were QPR the only football team Guiness have sponsored?
Where exactly is the statue going to be located? If the club plan to upgrade the environs up to the fron of the stadium then no doubt they'll need to move it in the next couple of years.
Agree on a statue of Jock Stein - does anyone know how much the supporters raised for the Brother Walfrid one?
-
All right bhoys:
I like others can't make it on Saturday,and would also welcome a video clip on here.
I can see tomorrow being a big news day,on a few fronts.
Hope i'm right!
NOEL: I think i am over my rant from last night,and having said that i have to disagree.Rangers were not only mince last night they were full blown STOVIES.

it is a very simple to use and upload images on to the net for free.
It gives you your own page and has lots of easy to use tools.
paul I could create a CQN page for the people here to post images- once censored by yourself or something else that might be workable.
will post my page for a couple of mins to show how it works next.

Can I just state, for the record, that Doherty is as correctly stated by newtaggsybhoy a complete and utter erse.
I know a few guys that have been in his company both in the Libertines and in Babyshambles and they all tell me that he is an erse.
Anyway, on to the important stuff.
Well done to Eddie and the guys for the Brother Walfrid statue. I still find it amazing that this hasn't happened before.
Does anybody know roughly where it's going to be yet. Personally I would put it slap bang in front of the doors by that lovely flower bed.
Also, Baldy, your spelling as atrocious and can you please refer to it as it was and always will be referred to as - Lumleys - Enough of this modernity rubbish.
-

evil rhum baa baa
You got your wish it is "slap bang in front of the doors by that lovely flower bed."

Cubist Frank, I am not going near Rangers tomorrow, all Celtic news.
What do you mean only two senses? Tomorrow you will be able to see Celtic, Quick News, you will be able to hear it, and you will be able to lick the screen – and taste Celtic Quick News.
I thought everybody done this anyway.
-
If it was Belgium and Galloway got the winner, the opponents were probably Germinal Ekeren.
Great volley into the top right corner from the left hand side of the six-yard box by Galloway if I remember back into my early/just-pre-teens
-
cheers evil Rhum a little head damage means I need some threads to jolt my memory. It was Ekeren and I remember standing right behind the goal as Galloway blasted in the winner
I also threw my scarf that had been with me since childhood over the fence in a supposed swap with a guy on the other side- when he caught it he just legged it !!
-
Paul67 the early signs of cracking up are begining to appear after your last post for while you can't taste CQN you can sometimes smell the BS

Sorry noel90 ;-)

for what it's worth just spoke to an editor at one of those papers and he has it from a 'good' source that Mcleish is off today/tmrw
Is Fergus buying again Paul ?
-
What does CQN taste like? Although Polo mints are edible hoops a mint flavour seems somehow inappropriate.
Any other flavours out there?
-
It should of course taste like Pacers.

Whether Pete Doherty is a good guy or not is hardly the point. It this thread that creeps thru here - like Graham Speirs is only a good journalist when he rubbishes Rangers - the minute he says anything good about them he's an idiot - what a load of rubbish. It’s the same thing with the Red Tops - if we like what they report - e.g. Pete Doherty is clueless - then that’s great - but if we don’t like it e.g. Neil Lennon's abrasive - then we're up in arms again. As the old saying goes you cant have it both ways

If the statue of Brother Walfrid is going to be sighted outside the main entrance can anyone spell out security arrangements,outside of business hours.
I would hate to think that it would be left unattended at night,as there are unfortunately some evil forces lurking whom i think would have it in their sights!

Whitedoghunch, thanks. I'll give that a go on Saturday.
As for the free range poached egg, I've just had that very thing on top of a piece of Stornoway black pudding - delicious
CQN to me tastes like lager - that's what I'm usually drinking when I read it.
-
Don't worry JonG - the club have arranged to project a virtual Terry Cassidy (a'la Princess Leia) into the car park to ward off any evil-doers.
-
i'm also a wee bit worried the statue will get the "donald dewar" treatment!
i would hope there is surveilance around celtic park anyway but it might not stop certain "yoofs" getting to it.

ubject: Evening Times- Land Mark Ruling
>
> Glasgow Evening Times (AP) - A seven-year-old boy was at the centre of

Glasgow courtroom drama last week when he challenged a court ruling over
who should have custody of him. The boy has a history of beingbeaten by

his aunt, in keeping with child custody law and regulations requiring that
family unity be maintained to the degree possible.
>
> The boy surprised the court when he proclaimed that his aunt beat him
more than his parents and he adamantly refused to live with her.
> When the judge then suggested that he live with his grandparents, the
boy cried out that they also beat him.

> After considering the remainder of the immediate family and learning
that domestic violence was apparently a way of life among

propose who should have custody of him.

> After two recesses to check legal references and confer with child
welfare officials, the judge granted temporary custody to Glasgow Rangers
Football Club whom the boy firmly believes are incapable of beating anyone.

The taste of CQN.
Don’t be overly analytical about it and miss the combined effect of its elements, to dissect is to destroy and you might fail to notice elements that don’t fall neatly into familiar categories like honeysuckle, jasmine, lychee, apricot, pineapple, pear, apple, lemon, grapefruit, fig, bell pepper, asparagus, green olive, cut green grass, dried herbs, dust (bigjoe), anise, clove, nuts, honey, butter, vanilla, smoke, wood, cherry, strawberry, blackberry, berry jam, cassis, fruit candy, bell pepper, asparagus, green bean, black olive, mint, roses, eucalyptus, tobacco, mushroom, earth, anise, black pepper, old socks, clove, butter, soy, ear wax, molasses, chocolate, cedar, vanilla,
smoke, and pine. We don’t need to fit faces, sunsets, or bird calls into set categories to perceive, enjoy, and appreciate them, and it seems constrictive to do so. Why should the enjoyment and appreciation of CQN be any different? Surely some of the aromas and flavours of CQN fall between the categorical cracks?
On a separate theme entirely what are the maximum penalties for plagiarism?

first post - popping my CQN cherry here. ( magic site by the way )
And I might get a kicking.
But speaking as an tim-but-now-atheist, I can't be bothered with statues being blessed. How does this make Celtic fans feel who are not R.C.s ?
Celtic are of course right to celebrate their heritage, but personally, anyone in the crowd whos jewish, muslim, protestant ( or of course atheist ) might feel a little excluded.
I'm proud of celtic's Irish community roots, but I think at an official level the club should celebrate our Irish / Scots roots and tradition of welcoming anyone along to support us ( the edition of the Celtic View which featured immigrants to Glasgow coming along to support Celtic was fantastic ) rather than indulging Mario Conti. He can come along, but spare us the hocus pocus.

Hi Paul,
A comment and a question, comment first, I've noticed a few folk are expecting negative reports on the ceremony on Saturday, I would suggest treating such folk with contempt, to decry someone due to their roots is the first step in creating an untermench. Now for the question and it's probably something everyone f you know without thinking, why the connection between Celtic and St Pauli?
Frankiebhoy2.16 :- LMAO
-
Initials PD?

6countiesfry
The statue is of a Catholic Marist brother. It is only right surely that he should be honoured in a fitting way. Walfrid's life was not crystalised in Celtic, rather it was dedicated to Catholicism and its teachings and ethos.
As a bi-product Celtic were formed and for that we, Celtic supporters, (Pagan, Christian, Muslim, Jew etc) are eternally grateful.
To honour the man simply for the football club and not show the dignity and respect to what Andrew Kerins was would be simply wrong.
I do not feel it is exclusive of others. Tolerance is imperative in a multi-cultural secular society. In fact perhaps terms such as 'hocus pocus' are more unpalatable than the dignity of a religious blessing?
-
otto,
close but no cigar this time......
you missed something out.
-
he's no Pete Docherty is he??
-
6 Counties?
Hocus Pocus??????????
You use such an inflammatory phrase yet you ask for tolerance of others?
Explain that use of language to me then as that seems rather intolerant of my personal religion (to which I do not take to kindly being insulted) and that of the man we will be celebrating on the day.
-
Blantyrekev, as a rough rule of thumb if you steal from one source then that's plagiarism but if you steal from two then that's research.
Your post must have come from more than one source (although you did miss Jilly Goolden's famous "buckets of ugli fruit" comment) so no penalties.
P.S. What's all this Rioja nonsense from other posters? What's wrong with good old Wolf Blass?

I most certainly am not Pete Doherty, but if you only knew how close.........

Martybhoy,
That is very scary.
Such an argument leads to armed struggle and the death of innocents.
I would suggest passing that on to the authorities but it was probably an advocate that wrote it.
-
Tommy Docherty??
-
Ok, sorry if 'hocus pocus' offends some. It's my view of all religions of all denominations ( if you watch the current Guinness advert about evolution, then that's a quick summary of why.)
But if I go along to the unveiling of a statue for the football club I love, I have to - albeit passively- stand and be blessed. Everyone around me bowing their heads. Mumbled 'Amens'. I've been through all that in life and I've rejected it.
Supporting Celtic helps me celebrate my Irish roots ( and to an extent my political beliefs ), yet I'd feel slightly annoyed and distanced from the club if I have to be blessed.
The question is not whether I'm intolerant, it's why bother ? It's good to celebrate the guy who founded Celtic in 1887, but it's indulgent to expect all Celtic fans to c
