Balance returning, Magnificent effort

1052

After a tenacious win in Paisley on Friday Celtic were back in the groove last night.  Passing was swift and accurate, movement – perpetual.  It was a quiet game for Kris Commons, which at an earlier time would have meant a game with few chances for Celtic, but the prodding of Johansen, Armstrong and Mackay-Steven ensured Thistle played much of the game trying to chase shadows.

The return from injury of two of our three right backs, Adam Matthews and Darnell Fisher, has given the team better balance, although Adam still looks to be finding his sharpness.

John Guidetti established his early season reputation against Thistle with a League Cup hat trick but that seemed like a lifetime ago last night.  The striker had the odd chance but the terror he inspired in defenders a few months ago has gone.

Enormous thanks to winning bidder for our Open Golf Championship Hospitality competition, which finished a moment ago raising £2050 for our School Kitchen project for Mary’s Meals in Malawi.  Thanks to Eden Mill Distillery and Brewery in St Andrews and all who participated.

It was a stunning effort and the money is now in place to complete the fourth CQN school kitchen!  Well done to all who played their part.

Celtic sponsor, Magners, who have helped from the beginning of this recent school kitchen project, have a competition to play at Lennoxtown and Celtic Park.  You can enter your 7-a-side team into the Magnificent 7s competition before 5pm Wednesday 15th.  It would be good to see CQN represented.  Qualifying round takes place at Lennoxtown on Sunday 26 April with the finals at Celtic Park.

    Saint Stivs,

     

     

    Have you Trademarked ‘handsome hun’ ?

     

     

    YIP

     

     

    and “keep it lit”

     

     

    did you know thats what got King done in the SA courts.

     

    he was doing well, and was on course for dismissal no charges when that wee wummin judge from the pistorius trial asked him

     

     

    ” and mr king do you know a handsome hun”

     

     

    he said

     

     

    “well yes mam, i do”

     

     

    and from there she declared he was indeed a glib and shameless liar.

  4. As bad as things got for us on the 90’s it was no where near this. Nowhere.

     

     

    Every week there’s something humiliating awaiting the dignified ones, yet more piles of steaming dog turds to tread through with their brown brogues….

     

     

    And to think we were all boycotting JJB/sports direct at one point…… I still do mainly because it’s keech…. But you get the point……

     

     

    Capitalist blood suckers do have their uses after all……

  5. Saint Stivs,

     

     

    Remember,he took £100 off the price.Probably because the Huns were not in.I think you can see from the attendances,that no matter what anyone on here says,if they get back up,there will be a significant rise in SBs for next season.

     

    IIf he returns the books to their original price,what have you lost?.

     

    Not taking sides,just commenting.

    15:29 on 9 April, 2015would they swap the murray years, the 9, the titles, just to wake up back in 1986, to have their original club back.

     

     

    ‘Bain,get the Audi Quatro fired up……..!!’

    Soembody who’s initials are RFC and has a signage as such?

  11. St stivs – I remember it like it was yesterday. Bought the Record and walked out the shop with a grin as wide as the Firth of Clyde…….

     

     

    We always had hope in our hearts. We knew we’d catch them. We never lost the faith! The good ghuys won in the end…..

  12. Just noticed on you tube bhoyszone blog for the 18th March there is a very handsome and articulate Cqn,r giving his views straight after The DUtd Defeat in the cup replay at Paradise

  13. Grass cutting time….. It’s lovelying and green and with my big pasty white complexion it’ll be green and white in the sunshine.

     

     

    SMASH-ing

    o g rafferty.

     

     

    Russell Campbell ? – a guy who tried his luck re RFC – he tried ( and failed ) to claim that RFC meant Rugby Football Club.Story made the papers . ( last summer ?)

    My late dad had a fine collection of assorted hats and bunnets, but I took them to the charity shop!

     

     

    HH!!

    Season book holders that have renewed every yr since since the hun decanted the top league should be offered a discount this time round for their loyalty imho.

     

     

    O** F*** supporters who are going to purchase a SB IF the hun wangles it’s way into the top division should pay MORE.

     

     

    Me i’m an overseas SB holder i’ll pay whatever the price is next season.

     

    But i hope the subs for CTV dont go up a hellava lot.

  17. From Hun Media about having to hand £1 million of the gate money to the SPL

     

     

    I can see both sides of this argument.Ideally the matches would sell out and the club would get the money. This is obviously not going to happen and Rangers fans are once again going to subsidise Scottish football.I was looking forward to the play offs but have a real issue with this. If the players and the previous management duds had done their jobs properly then these matches would not be required.

     

     

    Indeed McCoist could go some way to regaining respect with the support by subsidising tickets for the play offs.

     

     

    The last paragraph is a corker.

     

     

    “Hello,Hello,is that you Ally,I was wondering about you contributing to the play-off prices fur ra Berrs”

     

    “Ally,Ally,ur ye still there.H,mmm,must be a fault with his phone”

  18. I don’t know anyone who either doesn’t have a ST, or who gave it up because of the monkey’s death, who will be buying one if some form of them gets into the top league.

    H,mmm.So you dont think ST sales have fallen?.

  22. So MA owns the lot except ibrokes,if i was a hun(shudder) i would be asking myself A.does he own ibrokes B does someone else own ibrokes,because for the life of me i cant see ibrkes being the only thing that aint been sold or put up as security……no way…I think ibrokes went a while ago……Phil mac talks of rent being paid…def think there is truth in that…..

    No one will ask where the £240,000 per month is going.Until someone does,and gets a truthful answer,the story wont go away.

  25. Itscalledthemalvinas: No problem at all. Give me a week’s notice if possible if you need me.
