I like Alex Ferguson. He likes his football and cannot hide the respect in which he holds Jock Stein and the great Celtic team of the 60s and 70s. Like you and I, Alex is immersed in the history of the game here, a history he contributed significantly to at Aberdeen.
So, when questioned by the Daily Record on the potential shuttering of Hampden, his overwhelming reaction was for the loss of history:
“… leaving your history behind you
“You’re throwing away all that fantastic history
“history you are throwing away
“That’s a fantastic history
“history has been formed
“The history of Hampden is riddled with fantastic games
“We need history to tell us where we’re going”
No football fans are more immersed in history than Celtic fans, it sustained us through many a dark day, so these words will resonate with you. But fear not, there is a solution!
They can raze Hamden to the ground and have another venue BUY THE HISTORY! Why didn’t this occur to such a great mind? Buying history is a fairly straightforward issue in Scotland. I now own the Crimean War, which I purchased from a guy in Edinburgh last week.
The same vendor was selling the Renaissance, which I would love to own, as I would really like to have painted the Sistine Chapel in the 16th century, but he was wanting £1000 for that, and an internal voice told me I was being taken for a brainless clown.

Benu is 5 mins from the Hyatt, some crew

Minutes applause before kick off t today to welcome Delaneys BACK to Celtic park.
Maybe the slump will end today ?
This from the BT Sport website just now:
“Steve Robinson’s Motherwell entertain Rangers in the Ladbrokes Premiership. The Hoops are on a four-game winning run on the road and have won their last three trips to Fir Park.”
Naw, I don’t get it either.
Not sure what kind of game to expect, though it will probably be the usual abandoned coaches.
It will depend on how many of our return from injury players we start with.
This will determine our fluency and cohesion.
Any kind of win against a desperate ream will do.

In kds. Heading to Superstore. Is Dena over?

Petec My mum asked me in one of my recent visits, if the Fatima prophecies were coming true? All eyes on Mother Russia.
*as a wee bhoy in the primary we were asked to pray for the conversion of Mother Russia, no in my lifetime I used tae think.
We were also told to watch out for the “yellow peril”, who is now the most powerful country in the world and wee Kim’s ally.
1-0 Well. Soft penalty
Here are links to a couple of posts on SFM about TRFC/RIFC (who effin knows?) Accounts for those who like to delve.
The first relates to UEFA FFP and Article 48 that REQUIRES interims to be submitted and The Annex V of Art 48 copy pasted to link at
https://www.sfm.scot/is-it-time-for-the-sin-bin/?cid=169434
that sets out the standards of both the auditor/reviewer and the accounts themselves.
The second is an analysis of the Interims by an Arbroath fan. https://www.sfm.scot/is-it-time-for-the-sin-bin/?cid=169520 A good read.

That is what my mum was getting at.
She believes that when Russia converts, we will see the Second Coming of Christ.
Heb Celt, not long back home from the reverse of that trip: SF 3 nights, LV 4 nights and NY 3 nights. Very hectic and 3 time zone changes (including UK). Nothing out of the ordinary in SF, Fisherman’s Wharf, Alcatraz and Cable Cars. Stayed in the Excalibur in LV, just round the corner from the Luxor. Mind-blowing experience all round, with undoubted highlight being helicopter flight over Lake Mead, the Hoover Dam and the Grand Canyon and Colorado River. Also went to a show (Righteous Brothers), old and bold, but great entertainment. Some of the hotels are amazing, well most of them actually! We’d been to NY before and done most of the touristy things already, so it was just a bit of chill, and my goodness it certainly was chilly, even the trek to the Parlour, which is quite far out (made the mistake of walking- get the Metro). Hope that gives a flavour. HH

Mahe Guy sent off was Mal Donaghy. Great fella.
*Heard a wee story many moons ago about a NI flight home, probably fae the Spain WC, where the players were lined up for the toilet, out comes a player, who had left the black north on leaving school tae play in england, and walking back down the aisle shoves a west Belfast born player saying “get out of the way ya taig bassa”, seemingly another behind him from the same area leaned over and walloped the bigot, that player was allegedly Mal.
Watch out cellic we’re on our way back.
Aye back to division 3

Gents,
It’s great having a ” sell out” again, especially on Easter Weekend when so many of us go walkabout.
But do we only have to sell circa 7 thousand tickets to achieve this status. ?

TONTINE TIM,
I’ve been meaning to ask you for some time about the origins of the name “Jungle”. I grew up with my Dad, who always stood in the middle near the “toilet”, referring to it as the Hayshed. I did hear the nname was given to it by the troops who had served in the Far East during WW2. My Dad did his stint in India, Malaya and Singapore but never called it “the Jungle”, as far as I know.
*When I first started going with my da it was to the Jungle, that would be the early 50s as I was living in Aleandria at the time and didnae move tae Balloch until 1954, it was seen as a calmer spot rather than the raucous Celtic end where I aspired tae be.
I heard the same story, as you are aware the Jungle wisnae concreted until the mid- 60’s so with the weeds growing through the railway sleepers I can understand why the Burma vets called it that.
DD,
Meet you outside
I wonder if the manager who is permanent manager until the end of the season will see the end of the week
I wonder if this will affect the title race?
Motherwell may regret only being 2 up, should be at least 4.

Tontine That is what my mum was getting at.
