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.

    Celtic heading down to Brentford pre season.

     

     

    Hmmm.

     

     

    I wonder which corner of the ground I will have a drink in?

     

     

    Always liked the Griffin way back when….

  3. If the Bhoys are heading to Brentford there’s a rather fine CSC close at hand – The West London CSC right on their doorstep.

     

     

     

    Aer Lingus CSC!

    The Griffin .

     

     

    It was always hard to tell if it was too much Fullers or those pesky overhead planes that gave me the wobbles .

    I also imagine DBBIA would have seen them at the Ole Burns Howff . I have no idea if it was value for money and time well spent.

    FoCuS reply re Cunninham received today – more details to come later but it wasn’t the right fixture for it to be an offence! #luckyminister

     

     

    It appears FoCuS are only interested in Celtic fixtures…

  9. Sorry to keep on this issue re St Johnstone players lack of respect at the weekend

     

     

    Agree with everyone that Scobbie , M.Davidson & Frazer Wright all stood with arms behind their back ( disrespectful to say the least )

     

     

    However watch the guy Steven MacLean, he is last out , spits on the tennents logo

     

    then stands with what seams to be a half empty juice container in his mouth as Celtic walk on the park. He also has his hands behind his back. ( disgusting behaviour )

     

     

    Former Sevco . However what I find annoying is that Sky & Espn are able to pick up every little situation re Celtic players and manager.

    James Connolly A Working Class Hero.

     

     

    —————————

     

     

    Published on 7 Dec 2012

     

     

    A new comprehensive documentary on the life of James Connolly. The film traces Connolly’s life from his childhood in the appalling squalor of the Cowgate slums in Edinburgh to the tragedy of his execution in Kilmainham in May 1916. James Connolly — A Working Class Hero is the fullest account of a man who worked single-mindedly for a decent, just and free life for workers everywhere. The film reveals how Connolly was unique among his comrades, a self-taught scholar, a Socialist, a Marxist and the outstanding Labour leader of Ireland.

    Ye hivnae tae go any further or farther.. than tae tak a Look at.. the Very Disappointing..

     

     

    Long string of Calamitous…Away Results, in the Now over. League Race…that his Team has bin Handing in.

  16. TBH – if Sevco woon the league, would we expect playes like Paul McGowan or Niall McGinn to applaud them?

     

     

    I draw the line, though, at assaults like Wright’s.

     

     

    They have no place in football irrespective of who’s on the receiving end.

    Do you think that would be reported the same? To be fair, I’m glad it sticks in their craw so much and is laughable.

    The following three statements about Flamengo are all true, but only one of them is equally true of the deady bears. Can you guess which one?

     

     

    – Flamengo has St Jude as the club’s patron saint and has a shrine to the saint at its training ground.

     

    – Flamengo was founded as a rowing club.

     

    – Flamengo has just signed a new ten-year sponsorship agreement with adidas.

    This may be where they have gone wrong: they sought the wrong kind of help from other powers.

     

     

    We are all well, thanks be to God, and I hope you are too.

  27. hahahahha, sclaffbaw, i could turn up wearing one , slagging off the gowfers, like the greenkeeper in caddy shack

     

     

    you just gave me an idea

  28. The “When you pull on that jersey” quote is my favourite quote of all time. I’d just love if some clever balladeer could work it into the chorus of a song. God Bless you Tommy, for all you did for the Celtic. My final abiding memory of you, is when the Holy Goalie saved final penalty kick in shoot out with the Ruskies and tore off on a run pursued by the entire team. He came to ground just in front of me at the North Stand, and the entire team piled up on top of him. Next came Tommy and with a swallow dive that would have earned him 10 out of 10 threw himself headlong into the melee.
