Abada, ability, discretion, memories

By on CQN BLOG & Comments

In leaving the club yesterday to continue his career in the MLS, Liel Adaba closed the door on so much for us.

There are memories to cherish.  That 10-man 89th minute winner against Dundee United, which made it positive for us to go top of the league next time out, for the first time under Ange Postecoglou.

His opener at Jablonec, an early indication we were into something with him. He is a big game player and that was most noticeable in Scotland’s big games.  There will be a Croatian household in the Glasgow area celebrating his departure.

His life in Scotland as an Israeli athlete since October was largely undocumented and I’ve no intention of changing that now. But he suffered an onerous burden. His discretion on this matter is impressive for one so young.

Celtic have had an Israeli player on the books for 11 years. You may be as old as Methuselah before we are fortunate enough to see another. There is plenty for us to ponder.

Thanks for some great times, Liel.

Pick up on Alexandra Bernabei next week.

    DAVID, as DESSYBHOY has pointed out it’s Livingston for us tomorrow. Now, if it’s the Hibbees you’re after then we should (I presume) be hoping they win their match against another team from Glasgow, …… forget their name, but they were busy in Portugal on Thursday night.😊

    Lovely tribute that contrasts starkly to the warped bile emanating from some very sad and lonely wannabe social influencers.

    1965: One of the most important days in Celtic’s history, when Jock Stein officially took over as Celtic Manager.

    Going by EuroChamps67’s age i guess he must have been at Holy Cross around the early 70s which would have been at the same time my old man taught there.

     

     

    He might even have had the mis-fortune to have been one of his pupils!!

    Wot? No drink? Quite obvious that someone has hijacked BRRB`s account.

    So the SPFL will vote on 24th April when all clubs can decide whether artificial surfaces will be banned from the Premiership.

     

     

    Isn’t it amazing what happens when a Rangers manager complains to the media about his team having to play on plastic pitches?

    Tell us about the time you taught Péle to take penalty kicks.

     

     

    You cringe inducing spoofer.

    Seems that the Irish have given the latest round of Gubermint wokery a resounding No/No

    Monday 9th

     

     

    I have left this rather late tonight and it is cold. The priest Fr Murphy was in. I had a discussion with him on the situation. He said he enjoyed our talk and was somewhat enlightened, when he was leaving.

     

     

    On the subject of priests, I received a small note from a Fr S. C. from Tralee, Kerry, and some holy pictures of Our Lady. The thought touched me. If it is the same man, I recall him giving a lecture to us in Cage 11 some years ago on the right to lift arms in defence of the freedom of one’s occupied and oppressed nation. Preaching to the converted he was, but it all helps.

     

     

    It is my birthday and the boys are having a sing-song for me, bless their hearts. I braved it to the door, at their request, to make a bit of a speech, for what it was worth. I wrote to several friends today including Bernie and my mother. I feel all right and my weight is 60 kgs.

     

     

    I always keep thinking of James Connolly, and the great calm and dignity that he showed right to his very end, his courage and resolve. Perhaps I am biased, because there have been thousands like him but Connolly has always been the man that I looked up to.

     

     

    I always have tremendous feeling for Liam Mellowes as well; and for the present leadership of the Republican Movement, and a confidence in them that they will always remain undaunted and unchanged. And again, dare I forget the Irish people of today, and the risen people of the past, they too hold a special place in my heart.

     

     

    Well, I have gotten by twenty-seven years, so that is something. I may die, but the Republic of 1916 will never die. Onward to the Republic and liberation of our people.

    That is anti semitic.

     

     

    Hardly suprising from yourself,

     

     

    Wee attention seekin trumpian racist.

     

     

    Take on Tevye’s points,you dont.

     

     

    Easier to slur with mindless racist tropes.

     

     

    That show how stinted and limited you are.

     

     

    I Would stand beside Tevye, before you.

    Ah the anonymity of the racist keyboard warrior.

     

    Feel free to say when your at a game-not giving commentary on Donegal games.so a light can be shone on your plastic paddyism.Your one dimensional reply could be constantly met by what you are – racist.
