Kilmarnock don’t enjoy visits to Celtic Park, winning only once there since 1955, but seldom have they been on the receiving end of such a humiliating result from such a young and inexperienced Celtic team. You and I have seen these games – especially in the League Cup – go wrong so many times in recent seasons: Morton, Falkirk and Partick, to name just three.
What we have at the club now is energy and purpose that makes even our experiments seem potent. Brendan Rodgers must have been delighted at what he got from his players.
For some, like Leigh Griffiths, it was another hour nearer full fitness. These minutes are crucial in preparation for the almighty test of the season against Astana at Celtic Park one week from today.
Really pleased Roy Aitken will be around Celtic Park more often in future in his new role as Club Ambassador. Roy was a huge figure at Celtic in the 70s and 80s, but there’s at least one generation since who know little about him.

DESSYBHOY,
JPT is asking about issues in 444. Not the incident in hospitality. I believe.
Dessybhoy
Hospitality to Hospital, not nice.
Strange one.
HH
Surely if someone was slashed there was an arrest as well? Or did the perpetrator leg it? Not a good story.
Celtic and the support should claim all the cheated titles. They are available. If some entity cheated to win the title then the next in line are entitled to be called champions. Why wait around for a bunch of crooked officials to do the right thing – it will never happen!
The stolen titles should be included on all Celtic literature review, flags, jerseys etc
At a minimum it would bring the longest cheating saga to a head.
We should drive the agenda, the titles are ours, would we not be considered fools by not laying claim to them?
To all you gloating tims, spare a though for poor Lee McCulloch.
He must have been rubbing his hands with glee last night on seeing the Celtic team sheet.
I imagine him saying to his band of seasoned pros ” we’re in with real shout tonight lads, it’s men against bhoys”.
The futures bright, the futures green and white.
I sit in 443
The 444 gang have been there for years but have had numbers
increased in last few games.
Every week someone is taken away after Polis Stewards intervene.
Usually someone led away followed by a cop holding a btl.
Last night as per usual saw a couple of bhoys lifted never saw any
Buckie.
Not any different to any other game and was much worse
last midweek game v Rosenborg.
ps I dont have an issue with 444 gang
they generate a bit of atmosphere up Celtic end

was there an incident in block 444 last night?
Hospitality should be shut down and banned from the stadium indefinitely. We need to weed these people out.
Its all those rebel songs that lend themselves to incidents like this.

Heard a guy went into park unchallenged and targeted someone, unconfirimed i may add..
Don’t know anything about the hospitality slashing incident (as reported), but WRT section 444, I have been watching this over the past wee while.
There is a wee group of about 50-ish fans right up the back who give great support – start plenty songs, stand up throughout the game, just supporting the team and singing (no flares or ‘proscribed’ banners :-)).
However – at every game I see the exact same pattern.
Two / three stewards are dispatched from the bottom of the stairs by a supervisor to go up and converse with them (hassle them).
This precipitates some heated discussion.
The stewards call for the assistance of PC Plod.
Plod arrives (two/three), and one or two of the merry band of supporters are huckled away.
There is no trouble before the stewards arrive, and I don’t blame PC Plod for this – the hassle seems to be initiated by the stewards.
Exactly the same pattern for the last three games, and I recall similar towards the end of last season.
Seems targeted to me – I know not what the reason is.

BG- Hawthorne has to help FOCUS keep their numbers up or budget reduced…..allegedly
smsm & dunfermline & cqn
the truth no longer matters. it’s only the perception of their truth that people believe.
Kevin G on 9th August 2017 1:27 pm
True. Yet, perceptions can change depending on the evidence presented…
HH
First they came for the Green Brigade…
The story doing the rounds last night was that a guy got huckled from 444 and was getting set about by at least 5 stewards , he got his leg trapped in the stairway during the melee and by all accounts was lucky not to get his leg snapped, seemingly a few folk got it on video/phones. I was in 112 last night, I never seen it, but the story was doing the rounds at half time.
Slashing ffs, hope the guys ok, what next, people telling you what to post on CQN? Surely not?
…then they came for Ronnie Hawthorn
And I said “There he is there hiding behind Big Roy Aitken!!”
I didn’t see any trouble from my seat in the Directors Box.
The present is Green and White.
The future is Green and White.
Before all this focus stuff Policing a Celtic game was the easiest shift for the coppers in the ground the place was docile, and you might even have chatted to the cops as I did occasionally, it was usually a WPC casually asking people if they had bottles or cans, no hassle no problems, relationships appear to have disintegrated, not good.
I guess I have to own up…..
…. I deliberately scare cats out of my garden by yelling abuse at them clapping my hands and running towards them…
We don’t care what the animals say
I leave a photo of my mother in law in the middle of my lawn.
Nae cats, dugs, burds.
And the rain wouldn’t dare.
Just listened to the Jimmy Calderwood interview with Cosgrove, Calderwood stated that David Murray “Sent him to Dunfermline” surely it would be a conflict of interests for an owner of a football club to pick and install a manager at another football club ? I’m not sure if Dunfermline were in the top flight when Murray sent in Calderwood but they certainly were in the 2002/03 season. Calderwood wanted the RFC job and would have done anything to improve his chances.
One other thing that bothers me is could the league fixtures have been minipulated so that in the event of things bring close at the end of the season RFC would have a home tie against Dunfermline in the final game knowing fine well they would help rather than hinder ?

Yes, the whole thing was rigged.
Your getting the hang of this!
;-)
Ive got a wee fox lives at the bottom of my garden.
Ive trained him. Anybody goes near, and he leaps out and bites them hard:)
Beware:)

TGM
There are a few of them out there who would spill the beans if invited to, in a proper sort of fashion.
We could ask TONYD to kick them up the arse to see if that got their lips moving!!!
(See what I did there – before it gets deleted?)
Mr Calderhood you have been found guilty on 48 charges of dishonesty, have you anything to say.
JC: Aye, there are quite a few you dont know aboot, so ah be as well getting it aff my chest, and then i can grass Sir David right up:)
Talk about daft:)
HH
Extreme violence in hospitality area, shocking from the prawn sandwich mob
