Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini has managed to register his image rights on the off-shore tax-efficient territory of Guernsey. Income received there for use of his rights everywhere else will not attract the kind of tax mere mortals pay in their daily lives.
Pellegrini, 60, developed a genial personality to combat profound ugliness, an affliction which has affected him for decades, so news that his image has commercial value is a wonderful boon for the multi-millionaire. Manchester City will also benefit as any monies they pay for use of their manager’s image will not attract tax or National Insurance contributions.
Uefa president, Michele Platini, who has never had to worry about ugliness, now has a different challenge. Whether or not to abandon his well-meaning Financial Fair Play aspirations, or get ugly on those who try to usurp his best intentions.

Has anyone thought that before Mather went to visit King some kind of deal was already struck and the SFA suitably sounded out about King passing the fit and proper test.
I mean why go all the way to Suid Afrika ( a place I spent some childhood aparthied years) to be thwarted with negatives on his arrival and return.
Maybe he went there to rubber stamp a loan to tide them over and take in the sights at the same time on an all expenses paid trip.
Its their summertime after all
Cadizzy- yes, like you I’m hoping to be in Glasgow for Ajax game on 22nd so will probably not stay up another night.

Think that is the list complete for this year’s CQN Annual which will be out in a few weeks. Thanks for you patience and good humour while this has been coming together. If anyone wants a very late addition post today and I will add on but I won’t put the list on the blog again -promise! Special place at the start for some friends we have lost – if there are others please let me know.

Sounds like an interesting take on historical events.
I must say,however,that I start off as a sceptic ,having lived through events which were reported in “our” media as fact,but later were proved to be fabrication
eg. the attack by N. Vietnamese gunboats on American warships in the Gulf of Tonkin which “justified” escalation of the war.
Cadizzy- I hope to be in Glasgow on 22nd – nae ticket but might manage some pre game pints

Although if we were being fair to them (I know not why), he’s not actually involved yet. Or even said he will be. As far as I can tell from the reports RIFC are just hopeful he’ll come in as chairman.
DBBIA
You keep tormenting me with that GP and SJ double bill. Okay, I wasn’t there!!!!! but like the Murphy’s…….
I get into Glasgow some time after 4 on the 22nd so can meet for a beer.
We’re away up in a corner in 419 so a longer walk than usual from the pub but a shorter walk to my sister’s after the game.

hopefully see you then

It would be great to see pablophannque added to the former posters list
‘having lived through events which were reported in “our” media as fact,but later were proved to be fabrication’

Already talk of “war chests” and improving the squad. Let’s face it, they’ll never learn. Never in a million years. Their only reason to exist is to beat us. Somebody should break the news. Maybe bfdj or cy. Then again…..

No point in arguing about facts.Nothing to be gained.You`re right. My “equation” as you put it, is my opinion.
Fact, is that many died under Stalin’s regime, one person or 30 million persons, fact that people’s lives become facts or statistics and forgotten.
Ayrshire is Green and White

Hi there – What can anybody do about them ?
This the same set of animals – representing the animals
who have been allowed ‘virtually’ to do what they want,
when they want and, to whom they want to do it.
Celtic’s fan base has been ‘nuetered’ since all seating
stadiums which has led to an ‘apathy’ type of culture being
accepted as normal.
The establishment know this and I think that’s why they are
picking-off the young fans – the brilliant Green Brigade to quell
any chance of an – uprising – revolution amongst Celtic supporters
who remain the most feared entity to the establishment because,
they know that if the Celtic supporters ‘clicked’ then a monstrous
opponent would be in the ring with them, I think.
KTF
winning captains,
If there’s a list put me on it…
Noticed names of guys who post regularly enough missing from list. I was always convinced these 2 were Huns so maybe winning captains is gifted and sniffing out the uglies. Don’t want to mention their names in case it prompts someone to add them on.
I assume Focus will be arresting the squadies who posed with the “Keep Ulster Protestant” scarf at the recent Bigotfest. Now that most certainly is sectarian.
God Bless the 10.

Could you mention the day that the animals
were beaten twice by the answer to the problem
Celtic supporters on the front foot – in the annual ?

winning captains,
Thanks. Great idea to keep alive the names of those who we’ve lost.

You are bang on mate.
Their sole purpose in life is to hate us.
They have no qualms at all about who will fund their anti catholic agenda.
Win at all costs, as was demonstrated at the deceased club for generations .
Corruption , fraud, cheating, bumping the UK gov and creditors for millions.
All is fair to that mob in their quest to destroy us.
Funny thing is that in light of all of that we saw them off.And will do so as well with Sevco!!!
Hahahahahaha
GALLOGATE MAD SQUAD
Superb posting…There’s nothing as strange as folk…..All these posters who have tremendous sympathy with the folk of Ireland and horrific suffering the went through in their fight for independence from the British…. But the overwhelming message on this site is anti Salmond and anti independence.
Ask the Irish would they vote to go back to London Rule? I think I know what the answer would be. A two word sentence and the second word wouuld be ‘off’.

Listening to podcast with CYoung/English/Johnston
1.Young is quite insistent that he and many others involved knew all about Whyte’s background. 25 minutes in.
He said that everyone with any “vague professional interest” knew that Whyte was a “rogue”.
Does anyone remember anyone in MSM saying or writing anything which informed the rest of us about his shady track record?

This may well be a minority view but ‘ROH’ is one of the songs I could gladly never hear at CP again.
Having said that I would have thought the police could be putting their time and resources, in these financially straitened circumstances, to better use than lifting bhoys for singing it.
