I may have told you this before, apologies if I’m repeating myself. Around 20 years ago, in a TV studio minutes after a Rangers victory, a former captain, Terry Butcher (what ever happened to him?), told the audience, “David Murray will not stop until he’s won two European Cups and 10 in a row.”
Use of the personal term “he”, not the club name, struck me. Murray was personally invested in this matter. Such a burning desire did not make David Murray a bad person, he owned the dominant club in Glasgow, but the team he was dominating had all that glorious history. If the boot was on the other foot, you’d want the same. I would.
Perhaps if Jock Stein had stayed at Hibs, Celtic would have stayed in mediocrity, David Murray would have had a more affordable dream and the liquidation of his club would not have been necessary.
You know it’s true…….
On Tuesday’s STV report that Hearts manager, John McGlynn, said:
“How many fans would think they could win the league if Celtic weren’t in it at this stage? All [clubs’] fans would.
“That would cause great excitement and I think it would bring fans back to the game, at the lower clubs.
“If you look at the rest of us outside Rangers and Celtic, we’d all fill our stadiums if we thought we’d realistically have a chance of winning the league.”
There are screeds written and spoken about our game but the McGlynn Plan is the most productive comment I’ve read all year. Well done to STV for the report, hopefully they will put the same questions to others in the league. This is the most important question for Scottish football right now.
It’s time for these clubs to throw off their downtrodden ways and genuinely compete for the Scottish title.
Still looking for a ticket for Celtic v Barcelona? Equally keen to acquire a Wee Oscar wristband? A CQN’er has very generously offered his ticket for next week to raise funds for the Wee Oscar Campaign. You can bid for the ticket/wristband package on ebay.
Tell everyone who asks you for a ticket to bid on the auction.

Unless you are playing high level gaming, I don’t think you need to tweak your system, Viper turns off a lot of things that are defaulted on.

You Bill Gates tart … I make a point of avoiding having that problem ;-)
I know nothing about Vista mate sorry ….pass
HH
petec,
believe me it needs tweeked, I an wait up to 10 mins from start to logon, then an age for applications to open, there are far too many things going on in the background
canamalar
You have crap on your pc then.
check out the msconfig startups
and uncheck everyone that you think is useless for Windows to operate.
Canamalar,
Vista is sevco amigo. Sevco is dead.
Switch to Linux before it’s too late.
Vista was the faultiest Windows to date, even going back and comparing to Commodore 64 Windows.
Awe_Naw…,
I cant avoid it I’m afraid, you can only water with the hose you’ve got innit :o)
Night night Timland.

Whilst you are online, what are your thoughts on Bill Gates and his wife Exclusive Nor Gates and their policies?
I think they are Neutralising Humanity myself.
petec,
it used to be a good laptop, just been filled up with nonsense and years of mistreatment
sony VGN think yhey still cost about £300 on ebay and about 4 years old.
Petec (apols for jumping in) – think it was a couple of years ago I saw a Gates speech on Africa and his answer was “natural” population control through disease – if I recall it was reported here (UK) as if a perfectly normal approach.
Off to scratcher. Night fholks.

It was written for “Desire”,but dropped.
Strange decision,this is superb!
Of course,you might find the sound quality leaves a lot to be “Desired”…..
I ask question about Celtic in the real world all the talk is about computers. Last month has all been about ex rangers. I don’t comment often but at least it is about Celtic

I think the Dons fan in question might still be disgruntled wi the Mark Hateley/Michael Watt scenario from a while back.
After all,I cast it up often enough to the huns when they start on their 9iar….
See trying to find bubble wrap in Arbroath at 7PM, thats a killer task:-)
Petec, you’re a bit of music mogul. What happened to this outfit (Hipsway). I think I saw them at nightmoves or the barroland a few years back.

It makes you a good son,reminding your Da where his priorities lie.
It also makes you a bad friend to any of your ticketless mates who could have used it!
Hope that helps……….

I think the guitarist left early doors to join TEXAS,and they struggled after that.
TOPTIP-When wrapping precious items,wear a BLUE PETER badge. It will subconciously remind you how to use sticky tape.
Wouldn’t want “The Angels’ Share” going to those nice people at Royal Mail….
PS,should you not be resting up for your vital game tomorrow?
Aye Bobby, them aberdeen fans know how to hold a grudge.
Mrs ACGR has kindly offered to do a run to the P.O. once I get my bubblewrapping act together. Close your eyes, breath deeply and think of smokey. Or alternatively, smoke a tab.
Hoping to dispatch your commemorative bottle on Monday. I’d like to get your feedback on the contents of this piece of “scottish memorabilia”.
I’m currently sipping a small Ardbeg – “Almost there”, taking it easy so I dont get pumped by the heedie the morra:)
Ye have to watch these auld fella’s, there putting is deadly.
BMCUWP, resting?
When there’s a pound to be made ACGR rests for no man. I’m up to my neck in a big BP project at the moment and I can rest when I know it’s back is broken. Until then I work and play consecutively.
This is the only time of day or night when I can get peace and quiet to really work.
Good info on hipsway. What about Love and Money? They were another good product of Scotland in the 80’s?
The second best unplugged session filmed. Neil Finn, Roddy Frame and Garham Gouldman.

Sorry,doing a bit of paperwork there,just for a change.
As luck would have it,some of Hipsway joined Love and Money-but I had to google that!
I remember during a quiet spell,summer 2011,suggesting a top 10 Scottish albums of the 80s,figuring I had the demographic right.
Still got a fair few on vinyl,though not nearly as many as I should.
It’s amazing what you learn on the internet 20 (cough, cough odd) years after you cruised though the eighties on bevy, dope, rude young burds and cold desparate days at paradise..

Right, offski to prepare for my big game the morra wi the heid maister.
OOOOOH AAAAAAAH SAMARAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAras.
Lift me ffs.
AEILER GONOF RUST,PETEC
Couple of cracking tunes,fellas!
ACGR-I hope that aspersion was not aimed at my good self;I did no such thing! (Just on the off-chance my Mum reads this…) Enjoy the gowf,bud.
PETEC-When I listen to your ambient stuff,I wish I had more of it on CD,I-POD,as it would be better than through the computer. BTW,which Philistine gave that track a thumbs-down?
Anyway,gotta go. Duty calls!
Watching Breakfast on the BBC doing paper review

Aparently a shareholder in a daft wee division 3 club may be into tax avoidance.
Huge story for old firm fans.
