By any measure, Ange Postecoglou is clever. Thrust by sponsors into sitting beside Mick Beale for a pre-cup final media conference, there was no “lucky man” barbs sent along the table, instead, he spoke about Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s achievements.
“He won a trophy, finished second in the league and got to the Final of the Europa League. You change a couple of those things and they’re building statues to that guy. It’s a fine line.” Don’t criticise your opponent, just remind everyone of the achievements of his predecessor. Who was still sacked.
Games are not won at a presser five days out, all the hard work lies ahead, but Postecoglou set the tone in the room like a boss, he is determined to land this plane.
With possibly 120 minutes to plan for, Ange will be pleased Aaron Mooy and David Turnbull are available for selection. After the game at Ibrox on 2 January moved against Celtic, Mooy replaced Matt O’Riley. The response was not instant and had more to do with the introduction of Jota than anything else, but I expect Aaron will start on Sunday.

Good morning all from Govanhill.
Mornin .
Good morning all Tim’s across the globe from a frosty -3 Garngad
MM – Good to see you on, how are the young loones?
The Huns are doing an awful lot of talking before this game are these clowns that stupid that they cannot see that Referees have helped them in every game they have played this season especially the 2-2 draw with us that we were absolutely cheated yet again, if it was not for the man in black we would have won that 2 or 3 – 1.
Player stands on Starfelts foot and falls should have been a foul to us. Goldson 2 handed save.
Let’s put these ugly futher muckers back in their box. 4 or 5 – 1 will do nicely.

Good Morning Timland – Grand Day To Be A Celt
Reading back last evening, probadly inspired by Matt – I awoke with a song to inspire our new young striker to win us the game on Sunday…
Hymn To Our Korean Diamond
Oh – we remember when we had Yueng
He shone better than Son
Shine on you Korean Diamond
Playing at Parkhead in the night, under bright disco light
Shine on you Korean diamond
Get into the crossfire of Jota, Hatate, scoring with steel ease
Come on you target for Mooy and Haska
Follow Kyogo, Meada, Abada and shine
Hail Hail

On his Instagram story, the left-back thanked Celtic for a bouquet of flowers which was sent to the couple.
The note read: “Welcome to the world, baby Olivia, From all at Celtic Football Club.

Barenaked Ladies are a Canadian Group and they are just BRILL.
My Favourite GIRL Group were..
THE RONETTES…….Singing ” BE MY BABY”.
The Lead Singer was VERONICA ( Ronnie ), who later married that NUTTER Phil Spector…she managed to get away from him, before HE done her in.
Spector would then murder another of his Wives. I THINK hes still in Jail ?

BELMONT BRIAN…
Phil Spector is fact DEAD. He died in January 2021.
It wasnt one of his wives that he murdered it was this Girl..
On February 3, 2003, Spector shot actress Lana Clarkson in the mouth while in his mansion (the Pyrenees Castle) in Alhambra, California. Her body was found slumped in a chair with a single gunshot wound to her mouth.[105] Spector told Esquire in July 2003 that Clarkson’s death was an “accidental suicide” and that she “kissed the gun”.[106] The emergency call from Spector’s home, made by Spector’s driver, Adriano de Souza, quotes Spector as saying, “I think I killed somebody.”[106] De Souza added that he saw Spector come out of the back door of the house with a gun in his hand.[106]
I hope that he ROTS in Hell.
Ronnie ( Veronica Bennett ) from the RONETTES, who married SPECTOR, always claimed that she was ” Lucky” to have gotten out of the marriage, as he was a Cruel Abuser, and she feared for her life on several occasions.

BELMONT BRIAN…
Talking of Girls named ” VERONICA”, ive remembered since I last spoke to you, that APART from ESTHER from Coatbridge ( EARLY 1970’s ) that you know about, I also had another Girl Friend called ” VERONICA” who was also from Coatbridge, in the EAR;Y 1990’s.
HOW could I possibly forget Veronica from Coatbridge….OOOOPS ?
She was some GIRL/woman.
I will tell you about her next week.
LOL

JOHN MOTSON Dead at 77 years of age.
I wasnt a Fan, but may John Rest In Peace.
Funnily enough, just before last Christmas I bought myself a ” JOHN MOTSON SHEEPSKIN JACKET ” I have only worn it Twice…although it cost a small fortune. The MOST expensive Jacket that I have ever bought.
Some of the Regulars in my Local Pub… when seeing me in this Jacket, called me ” JOHN MOTSON”.
John Motson.

Thank you to the poster who shared this previously
(Apologies – can’t recall who).
IMHO, these kinds of things are brilliant.
We have a long proud history as a club and have been served by absolute heroes across the generations.
Wonderful stuff
Mr Sakala?
I feel sorry for him.
By spouting the words of others who are quite possibly lesser human beings than himself ?
He diminished himself as a man yesterday.
Never fail to keep telling it ….
No decent human being walks into that place, stays three years, and walks out a better person.
76 hours until KO.76 is 67 backwards …..an omen already !!
3 more sleeps.
Can’t wait to see Hampden in the sun and our champions go out and continue our generation of domination.
Hot Smoked
I like that thinking !
Took that – a Bhoy band

Gone to commentate on that great game in the heavens …..
Pele Maradona Jinky Di Stefano Big Billy Eusebio
and of course Jimmy Bell refusing to put out their kits.
Back to Basics
What did Sakala say ?
BURNLEY78 on 23RD FEBRUARY 2023 11:11 AM
It was something along the lines of referring to us as `the other lot`.
Nothing, really. Had Broony said something similar we would have been laughing.
.He said: “Obviously, I know how important the game is when you play the other mob. “
Using comments like that as an example of the Hun Attitude makes us look fragile and as though we are looking for ANY excuse to criticise the Huns. We don`t need excuses. Reality will serve us better.
Cheerio for now.
Some choons before noon,

I have an older cousin called Veronica, we may be related through drink. :)
Reasons to be cheerful about Joao Pedro Neves Filipe
Still only 23 years old. Comfortably two-footed. Loves a dribble. Happy to shoot on sight. Provides X factor with occasional Wow! sprinkles on top. Contracted to 2027. Works his socks off while on the pitch.
Lettering his name on a replica shirt only costs a Jota. In complete command of any ball at his feet. Direct freekick goal threat. As our weather improves, so does he.
We have a good one here.
RIP
Jojo
