Answering tangential digs at Celtic

570

I see Celtic’s name was dragged by the media into what some low-life vandals did outside Ibrox this week – and a few years ago, for good measure.  There are low-life vandals out there, and we don’t have a way to filter them out of the Celtic support, so I‘d not dispute any of the tangential links, but vandalism like this happens all too often without media coverage.

When stories suddenly appear to be so well framed in the newspapers, you have to wonder why?  Or who is behind them?

There’s a big play underway for what, in this context, should be called Supremacy in Scotland.  Celtic have it right now and no one else is strong enough to eclipse them.  The best way to achieve this is to destabilise the club.  It’s worked, but only to an extent.

I read Paul Larkin on Hail Hail Media this morning who raises some interesting questions on what’s going on and what we should do about it, “as a collective, cannot be beaten”.  It’s hard to argue with.

We’ve got two exciting bits of Magners business for you today………..

First, if you want to win two Premium Seat tickets to the Jock Stein Stand for Sunday’s potential league winning game against Aberdeen, courtesy of main club sponsor, Magners, answer this question about our last 9-in-a-row campaign:

Against which team did Celtic win the first of their 9 consecutive titles, in 1966?

It was a famous game, settled by a famous scorer.  Email the team name IN THE SUBJECT LINE of your message, to celticquicknews@gmail.com

Competition closes at 17:00 TODAY, so you only have a few hours…..

And there’s more……  How do you fancy playing on Celtic Park in 12 days’ time?  Go to Facebook and enter this Magners competition to win a place in the end of season 7s tournament.

You get to grace the place that McGrory, Johnstone, Dalglish and Larsson did their stuff.  Do it.

Now I’ve got you in a good mood.  If you’ve a spare £1 in your metaphorical pocket, go stick it into the CQN Mary’s Meals appeal  Those CQN school kitchens in Malawi feed over 2,000 kids each day.  That’s food needed every day………

    Paul 67, my friends in Celtic,

     

     

    It seems it your birthday today. Happy birthday Paul 67.

     

     

    To the best of my knowledge I have never met Paul 67.

     

    However I would have put money on that he was a Taurus. That is based on the content and tone of many, many articles.

     

     

    The dominant characteristic of this star sign is stability.

     

     

    Typical traits are Patience, Reliability, Loyality and Responsibility.

     

     

    However negative influences can be Uncompromising and Stubborn.

     

     

    If like me you believe astrology has a great influence on how we live then :-

     

    Maybe this will help explain all to some posters.

     

     

    Hail, Hail.

    Nothing stays the same after a decade. To stay static is to look backwards.

     

     

    Many examples of that in everyday life, the blog is no different.

    Close but no cigar for the guy when he says

     

     

    “The matter relates to the two cases HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) brought against Rangers and precipitated the club’s financial demise, from which followed automatic relegation to Scottish football’s bottom tier”

  17. GREENPINATA,

     

     

    That is as maybe. But, imo, the quality and character of much of the contributions to CQN are no where near as good as they were. People even presume to make personal attacks on Paul67 himself. That is not what I want to be reading on here. Indeed, I feel the likes of that is not what I should be reading on here or anywhere else.

  18. Hoopy birthday to P67.

    Slip of the keyboard in the Insideofworldfootball article;

     

    “The matter relates to the two cases HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) brought against Rangers and precipitated the club’s financial demise, from which followed automatic relegation to Scottish football’s bottom tier”.

     

    Email sent to the author pointing out that there was no automatic relegation.

     

    If the story is going outside the Scottish bubble then we have to make sure that it’s reported factually correct.

    Part of me believes in Astrology, another part of me thinks it is a load of tosh.
