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………

Doubt it. If they really want to keep it a deal will be struck. They only need half the Greens to abstain and they could get it through.

Cheers for that fella, Hail Hail.
I hope that, you and yours are well also.
Yeah, they told me that they’ll not need to
see me for another 5 years ?!?!?
Of course, my family are absolutely delighted.
But, 5 years ?!?!?
I’m no so sure about that ?
I always suspect something in my dealings with the NHS.
Fantastic if it’s true.
Ah mean, it could have been 5 day’s!
I hope it’s true but,…….
The NHS staff at Hairmyres were brilliant, just brilliant.
Maybe it’s cause it’s Jobo Baldie land :)

Hail Hail fella, hope you and yours are well too.
Bobby Madden wouldn’t be a referee in Scotland if,…..
Celtic FC was run by a board of rebellious Celtic fans.

Maybe some of the more informed in here can answer this,
My reading on the Nino smith debacle was that he (Nimmo smith) only acted on information received from the dead, they, again the way I read it held certain information back at the time

I hope you and Mark crc get full replies.
Your investment, both emotionally and financially,imo is irreplaceable to our club.Thats why I think our club will take heed.there are many like you.

A Independent labour party in Scotland ,is the only way for the Labour Party,that girl Dugdale,like Ronny,has been hung out to dry,Brown,Milliband,and now this joker Corbyn,have all but ruined the Labour Party,left wing policies are finished,
KEVJUNGLE on 6th May 2016 11:00 am
More than likely. But it’ll take more than Bobby Madden for them to challenge us going forward.
Even wee McInnes is sticking it to them saying they will still be Celtics main threat.
The battle is over…the rebels have won.
HH
“Graham from Blackburn”
Timbhoy,
Me and the work hun have just been laughing about that.
His hun app has told him we are apparently going to fight it out for his signature.
He said how can you sign players without a manage?
I said how can you sign players when yer skint.
Total newspaper bs imo.
HH
Happy Birthday Paul,
TIMBHOY3 on 6TH MAY 2016 11:06 AM
Are you serious? Corbyn is the most clearly left-wing leader Labour have had in a generation.
I watched Blairite Labour candidates moan about the effect he had had on the vote while at the same time receiving tweets about Labour supporters cheering Tory wins that kept SNP out. Until this ‘anyone but SNP’ mentality stops they’ll never recover.
The Tory and SNP increases in vote share directly correlate to Labour’s drop. What does that tell you?

Helluva thunderstorm straight after that game,nothing in comparison to the thunder of the fans in appreciation of a glorious performance.
Jinky was immense. Dixie got the plaudits. Bertie got his last medal and a right good appreciation from us.
Hibs just got a doing. Such a shame we didn’t have a goal in us a few days before.
Not for the want of trying,mind!
News that the Labour Party in Scotland has won fewer votes and returned fewer MSPs than the Tory Party seems incongruous.
Stretching across central Scotland, from Greenock to Leith, port to port, the Labour heartlands, there are just 2 Labour-held Holyrood constituencies and one Westminster seat.
I don’t quite know where we go with that, but the collapse in support seems terminal.
Meanwhile, the much-loved OBAF Act now has a Holyrood majority against it, and a promise from Labour’s James Kelly to introduce a private member’s bill at the first opportunity.
Politics is a murky business, but unless there’s some sort of discreditable deal done behind the scenes, it should be Bye Bye to the OBAF Act in early course.
Cue major PR spend from Police Scotland.

Busy morning. Just looked in to see if any of the Scottish press had picked up on the Tax Network expose of SFA shenanigans.
Nah. Didn’t think so.
It is up to the ordinary supporters to keep the light shining on this pile of ordure.
Looking forward to “On Fields of Green” article

No-one in Scottish Labour knows where they go from here.
They have a real problem. Their decision that Labour voters will always be Labour voters was like drinking Kool-aid.
“Who else they gonna vote for?”
Shortest suicide note in history.
Nice to see Nats lose their majority. Polling well down on 2015 GE and on opinion polls too.
No elections coming up to distract the masses. no mandate/chance of another referendum anytime soon.
Time to actually do some governing.
Definitely their high-water mark. The retreat into bitterness begins…
Jerymy Coyburn ,and people like him,are a thing of the past,nobody believes in left wing policies, anymore,and another thing when labour is in power ,the benefits go sky high,then when the Tories get electected, there benefits get cut drastically, so if labour get into power ,which I can’t see it happening,with Corbyn ,McDonnell, and Watson at the helm,they will need to start giving reasonable benefits,not huge amounts of cash,to some who don’t really need it,
ITALIABHOY on 6TH MAY 2016 11:19 AM
Overall vote share went up though, so it’s not like they’ve got less support.
The voting system did what it was designed to do. Glad to see the system of checks and balances back. Outright rule by a single party doesn’t work best for the population.
TIMBHOY3 on 6TH MAY 2016 11:25 AM
Sorry I totally misread your meaning when I replied earlier.
Paul67 – happy birthday.
And thanks for providing such a wonderful forum – where the Celtic family from all around the world can meet, greet argue and rejoice.
Hail hail indeed.
My friends in Celtic,
It could now ( sadly ) be argued that the political leanings of some of the Celtic board are more in tune with the Scottish people today than they were yesterday.
HH.

Classic!
Work beckons but good article on e-tims site. Worth a look. www.http://etims.net/p=9080. Keep those lanterns lit. HH
SORRY Linky thing not working.
Good to see the light being shone on the Rangers/Sevco/SFA from sources not stimmied by Scottish football corruption. A small step in the right direction.

I kinda think the Scottish Meeja dinny like us.!!!!!
Seriously though, the are supremacists and very similar to the Ku Klux Klan and of course not forgetting Nazi Germany is the 1930’s.
And you’re right, they cannot stomach that we ARE the force of Scottish football, and hopefully always that will remain. But they don’t like it and every trick in the book will be tried to destabilise us. What can we do? Strengthen and win, easy really.
The semi final really was a fluke result and if we played them 10 more times, we’d stuff them 10 times. They just caught us on a real bad day.
