When someone writes the Celtic Story on our 200th anniversary there will be a page about when The Thai Tims came to Glasgow. It’s a part of the Celtic Story which reaches from 1888 to the present day, and, if we do our job as Celtic fans well, will ensure the character of the club retains a distinct and generous flavour.
The Thai Tims, formally the Good Child Foundation, arrive from Thailand next month and will perform at the Royal Concert Hall, Glasgow, on Thursday 10 May, tickets are £12 and £6 for kids. If you have enjoyed them on YouTube, and I know you have…. buy a couple of tickets here or call 08444 77 1000 and get along before they’ve sold out.
You can also support the Good Child Foundation by contributing to the fundraising exercise via their Everyclick page.
Sorry I didn’t get back to you yesterday on the question about whether not registering players correctly was cheating. Busy, busy. Will get to it as soon as I can – no answering this question early, that’s cheating.

The above is a line from my original post.
Do you remember doing comprehension tests in primary school?
The answers were always in the text.
todays the day we get to call our
tv/cable/mortgage/gas/electricity/
loan/insurance companies to say
im coming out of my present deal with
no penalties because i can get a better
deal elsewhere and i wont be paying you
a penny for the current services that i
have outstanding.
if the scumbags can do it…
Its interesting that Wee Wullie Bluenose still has to bring Celtic into his ditty.
Just like the official rfc anthem follow follow with” Celtic know all about their troubles”
and refs to Dublin etc and not to mention the extra add-ons.
Hating Celtic seems to be a big part of supporting ranglers.

From what I’ve read on here two members of the GB were charged with, I think, an aggravated BotP for a banner that had the word huns on it. The main prosecution witness seemed to be former referee Eddie Smith. The charge was found not proven after a four day trial.

No European League to escape to by the sounds of it.
Europe’s leading clubs signed a six-year peace deal with Fifa and Uefa at the latter’s annual congress in Istanbul on Thursday.
The landmark agreement gives the clubs greater insurance cover for their players on international duty, a bigger slice of the revenues from the European Championships and more say in the sport’s running.
“Today is an historic day for football,” said European Club Association [ECA] chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge.
“With this agreement, Uefa clearly recognises the importance of clubs and the significant contribution they make to the success of international football.
“The agreement reflects an improved balance between international and club football and is a great success for the European football family.”
“Fifa boss Sepp Blatter told the congress that the governing body would now insure every player in all international matches “for the best interests” of the game.”
Rummenigge, whose ECA represents 201 of the most powerful clubs from 53 countries across Europe, also heralded the reduction in the number of international games.
In a major win for the clubs, the two-year qualifying period for the 2014 World Cup will be comprised of nine “double-headers” – games on a Wednesday and Saturday, for example – with no “single-date” friendlies, which means the end of the friendlies at the beginning and end of the European club seasons.
But it is the greatly improved insurance offer from Fifa and Uefa that the ECA’s members will be most pleased about, as it is the product of a concerted lobbying effort.
Rummenigge is also the chief executive of Bayern Munich and the German giants were left incensed when winger Arjen Robben was injured playing for the Netherlands at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.
Fifa boss Sepp Blatter told the congress that the governing body would now insure every player in all international matches “for the best interests” of the game.
The clubs can also look forward to a share of an additional 100m euros from Uefa’s revenues at this summer’s Euros in Poland and Ukraine.
And that figure increases to 150m euros when the tournament is played in France in 2016.
What Uefa gets in return for all these concessions is the topic of some debate but the prime motivation must be to maintain ECA support for the organisation’s Financial Fair Play initiative, which comes into force next season.

hardly think it was an over-reaction,especially not a mammoth one.
Although each to their own.
Maybe the “mammoth” comment was an allusion to Macjay’s earlier reply to me,and I’m doing you a dis-service.
Anyway,one of these days we’ll be in broad agreement with each other.
It should be interesting to see who admits to it first,haha!
Anyway,duty calls. Off shortly to have a few beers with the MC from last night’s John Hartson do.
He gave his services free-of-charge,and he’s always good value-for-money……
PS,l-o-v-e the light touch on the ! button!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

M. HATEly = Presstitute of the year.
I love the insight of his column and his approach from different angles, he really should be writing for the Guardian or head Sports writer at the Times. I always hang on his every word as his column is just so eloquent, I would vote for him as he is an International literary genius and fashion mogul.
RegardiongHareley how much praise would he be giving them if the 4 in a row was 4 wins in a row at home?

I think you’re search for a ticket will be difficult, being realistic but, you must NEVER doubt the hope in you’re heart :o)))
I could offer you a wee story of what happened to me to, my self and my brother in our quest for, one more ticket for SCF in 1989, the Joe Miller penalty final.
We had, one ticket between us. It was for the, Celtic end of the North enclosure. As we stood/walked around, Aitkenhead rd and, Prospecthill rd, our search looked as though, only one of us would get in as, the clock ticked closer to kick-off.
So, we decided to go to the, filling station/garage on AH rd to get a, Not The View fanzine. I said my brother could go in with the ticket and, I would go back to the car and, an omen appeared right before our eyes. A fellow Celtic fan, to whom I will be eternally grateful, on hearing us continually ask passing fans for a “spare ticket”, approached my brother and said he had one ticket spare as, sumdy didny turn up!
If my memory serves me correctly, i think the ticket price was -£18 ?
My brother offered the gentleman £40. The fine gent refused. My brother then offered £30. Again the angel from heaven refused saying ” i could NEVER, over-charge a fellow Celt! The angel from heaven took a, £20 note from my brothers hand and said DEAL!
Then, the angel from heaven entered the, filling station/garage, only to re-appear with, £2 change for my brother!!!
Then, as the angel from heaven tried to place, two £1 notes in my brothers hand, by chance, the Nun’s were collecting with, plastic bucket in hand so, at that point, my brother put the remaining £22 in the collection bucket. We couldn’t have asked for a better sequence of events….
The angel/Celtic fan appearing with ticket, refusing to exploit a fellow Celt, then the appearance of the Nun’s, only to be followed by, Joe Miller’s goal ruining Souness/the beasts Treble hopes!
What a day!
God Bless ALL Concerned :o)))

You come across as a very strange and bum licking tim.
I thought the tackle on Beram Kayal was a fair one, I still do, lots of Celtic Supporters share my opinion, more don’t.
Certain media outlests will not be getting tea and scones and jelly and ice cream at Parkhead anymore, you don’t need Neil Lennon to heep shame on shame, they shame themselves and their very spoken words, no matter how hard the labour to disguise them, label them hun regardless.
I can’t ever understand why any huns life should be so shallow and worthless that he would castigate him/herself more by pressing their envious noses up against their screens when logged into Celtic sites. There is something strange, sinister and sick about that.

As you are flying over you might
as well go to ipox and ask any
“any spare tickets”
as there is always someone
who cant make it at the last
min you never know your luck
I’ve never in all my days of going to Hampden ever seen nuns collecting. Ever.
The guy wright on channel 5 just said on air…”Huns dressed as nuns carrying guns…”.
Not sure if he was talking about a tv programme or the Manchester yoefa final.
posted this earlier…
What happens if rANGERs suffer a massive points deduction before the split (I know, I know but bear with me…) which puts them in the bottom six.
In that case, there will be no fourth game Vs Thems.
What happens to the Sky contract in those conditions?!?!?

As you’ll be over anyway there’s no harm in going to the ground and just asking folk, you just never know.
When I was in charge of our supporters club a few years ago we always had spare tickets for every game. We used to buy 15 mini season tickets as they were then and these got 10 games inc 2 hun games. We only had at most 10-12 people travelling over at any one time so I was always down the ground early looking to pass on some tickets.
Didn’t always work and I have loads of unused tickets lying about the house. I even have one from the 6-2 game.
I’m sure our supporters club wasn’t the only one with spares so keep asking, you might just be lucky.

No new Sky deal? Suits us fine to do our own TV deal.Makes sense tae me.
Moring cqn
Just had a laugh at Yorkston of Dunfermline
The game is teetering on the brink of collapse and the 10 want to help guide it back to a better place.
This is the same idiot who went for the setanta deal instead of the sky one and look what happened there.
All these meeting about change are more about keeping the status of ra gers in the spl with the 4 match tv deal.
The only problem is the huns are going bust and multiple sfa and spl rules are going to be broken to keep the tv money rolling in.
When lord hodge rules this afternoon regarding the ticketus deal at iPox is to be upheld,then that will be another legal judgement that has scuppered the sfa and spl and the Huns staying in the spl.

At the moment it’s all speculation and no doubt designed to give the huns some more hope. It’s always good to provide some pro-hun stories in the week prior to a glasgow derby.
The short answer is, no-one in the media knows what is explicitly stated in the current contract with Sky/ESPN regarding derby matches nor does anyone know what is explicitlty stated in the proposed new contract. if they did, they would have the clause in print for all to see.
As far as I remember, neil Doncaster said last week or the week before that there was no such clause in the contract.
