125 kit and an SPL comparison

1030

A Hibs fan suggested to me on Twitter that as his team are wearing their home kit for next week’s Scottish Cup Final Celtic should take the opportunity to wear their 125th anniversary top. Despite there being 100 years precedent of Celtic and Hibs both wearing their home kits, recent rules (or perhaps customs) dictate that clubs are not permitted colour clashes.

That being the case, let’s take the opportunity to reach back to our founders and wear the anniversary kit.

Before that we have the small matter of Dundee United to play on Sunday. Celtic won the league by 20 points last season, 10 of which were gained after a competitor failed to come up with enough money to meet their commitments. Defeat at Tannadice could reduce this season’s winning margin to 10 points, in a season where everyone, even Hearts could afford to meet their commitments.

Who would’ve thought this SPL would be so competitive? Not me. More please.

Thanks for the excellent support for Willie Wallace’ autobiography. Orders in today from East Brisbane to West Didsbury and many places in between.

    G’Night.

  2. Good morning friends from a very bright, dry and positively cheery looking East Kilbride. And I was expecting huge dark clouds as well ;-)

    On that Rangers FC Profit and Loss summary (assuming it is legit) it looks to a layman like me that the huns are projecting a 6 million loss both before and after Tax; but there appears to be no allowance made for tax in the equation. Surely their VAT obligation would be additional to their projected losses!?

     

     

    Or are they just exempt from tax altogether now?

  4. Summa of Sammi 01.29 Yes, a glaring miss,just rechecked, had earlier Spurs ECWC win,2 Scots (Aberdeen and them), Cardif, Brazil and other foreign winners!! Never really read the DM to “know” of a reason, certainly seems somebody doesn’t like us!!!

     

     

    Auldheid- my blog 12+ hours ago got your name muddled- always been bad more so now-Auldheid + oldtim = Auldtim. Sorry and good luck with your plans for sponsor boycott. The SFA must be completely overhauled for Scottish football to continue successfully!

     

    Hope for a good demo on CF day by both Celtic and Hibs fans.

    Good Morning one and all.

     

     

    Well it has been an interesting night— Charlotte the Harlot posted more stuff in the middle of the night, including these accounts and forecasts:

    and these budgets

     

     

    http://www.scribd.com/doc/141745358/Budgets

     

     

    the budgets were supposedly sent to “Sheik Iahmad” —–( I am Mad?—– presumably not the real recipient?

     

     

    Anyone remember Rowan and Martin’s laugh in?– sums it up perfectly

    midfield maestro:

     

     

    I didn’t know that but if the loss is projected at 6mil would VAT still have to be paid regardless of the state they are in?

  9. midfield maestro on

    Vat is ‘meant’ to be paid every quarter. Whether they do or not is another story.

    Happy 90th birthday to my wonderful mum, Frances. Still going strong Hx2

  12. BHT&R- thanks, again a grand tale (posted to family and friends) “the curse….”. Would have bet money on his being from Angola as I remembered reported in past times. Lucky! Not often willing to bet,usually sure. Of course you are correct and his father was from Angola (Wiki). A “curse” of old age!

  13. Morning,

     

     

    I take it there has been some major revelations regarding Sevco. Let battle commence!

     

     

    I wonder which drunken, p1$h stained bear will make a incoherent speech from the ibrox steps this year…

    Benfica officially talk about breaking the curse!

     

     

    They have now been in something like 9 major European Finals since then and have lost them all– it is just astonishing.

    After you posted your link last night it was mentioned in ITV.

     

    Hadn’t heard about it prior to this.

  16. Top of the morning to you all from sunny Fife.

     

     

    The Scotsman has nothing about the Sevconian shennanigans in the Sports section so there can’t be anything untoward happening over Ibrox way.

     

     

    Oh well, no rockets this summer then.

    Good morning CQNers,

     

     

    If Nimmo Smith, who we were assured by an esteemed contributor to this blog had impeccable credentials, can produce such a distortion of a judgement of ‘no sporting advantage’ then the games a bogey.

     

     

    No matter what today may bring nothing changes, ultimately they’ll be there because, quite simply, they represent the majority of the nation.

     

     

    They’ve lied, they’ve cheated, they didn’t pay their taxes, they left a trail of creditors, they attract only suitors of dubious character but still, some how, they remain and the authorities actively pursue ways to circumvent rules to ensure their participation.

     

     

    Nothing has changed nor will it.

  19. Amazon received £2.5M in grants but only paid £2 4m in tax.

     

     

    Sevco are interviewing their ceo.. o))

  20. Murdochbhoy, yermanfromMK on

    I woke this morning refreshed and in a good mood but reading the news I fear we’ve become complacent.

     

     

    Complacency is our biggest danger.

     

     

     

     

     

    At least, though, no one in the UK has been denied access to healthcare – yet. Stuckler confesses to being “heartbroken” as what he sees happening to the NHS. “Britain stood out as the great protector of its people’s health in this recession,” he says. “By all measures – public satisfaction, quality, access – the UK was at or near the top, and at very low relative cost.”

     

    But that, he says, is now changing. “I don’t know if people quite realise how fundamental this government’s transformation of the NHS is,” he says. “And once it’s in place, it will be difficult, if not impossible, to reverse.

    Did you sort out your emails?

     

    Think you may have been hacked last night.

  22. ‘One of the reasons we’re looking to strengthen our squad is so fans can watch more free-flowing football and a continuation of the positive results from last season.’

     

     

    Mather obviously.referring to the Chuckles handbook on how to get stupid zombies to buy season tickets.

     

     

    Sevco season tickets start at £258 for adults and £65 for kids.

     

     

    I am right in saying they are more expensive than ours for Second Division football?

  23. Remember when the laptop loyal were falling over themselves to welcome Murray the season ticket holder and former big hitter for the Man Utd boardroom. Making out he would be the Sevco Peter Lawwell.

     

     

    Now he is a drunkard who can’t hold his water.
