Being there

1087

I’m sure many of you will remember the home game against Dundee in April 2001. We needed a win to be able to secure the title the following week, at home, against St Mirren. After the game Martin O’Neill sounded irritated at the anxiety in the crowd, oblivious to the fact that the loss of a late goal would have denied many of us the opportunity to be there when the title was won.

If you’ve been there for the highs (Aberdeen) and lows (Kilmarnock) of the league season you’ve earned a ticket to the party. Let’s hope the SPL deliver a home game next, as reported.

Apologies for the extended downtime yesterday. Plans are afoot for five new servers to load-balance CQN (which sounds a lot right now but we’ve had similar thoughts before).

Let the record show that the death of Margaret Thatcher brought CQN down longer than when Rangers did the decent thing. Was hearing the news a ‘JFK moment’? I was in the wee room at the time, a treat for all the senses, so I’m not sure how my memory will handle the situation…. mostly audio.

  1. The hacks in the Scottish press keep reminding us that practically every member of the Celtic squad will be auctioned off in a sale of Celtic superstars at the end of the season – it appears these guys just can’t wait to see the team disintegrate.

     

     

    Could this be Peter Lawell in action come the end of the season.

    DL on SSB says “If Dunfermline get formally put into Administration, there’s no way back…. They’re finished” …….. Am I missing something …!!??

     

     

    This crew have got to be the biggest hypocrits on God’s own Earth……incredible…!!!!

  3. Surely the SFA couldn’t be thick enough to order a minutes silence for that horrible woman ?

     

     

    Of course it is me being thick!

  4. The STV tape should – in theory – make Challs into very burnt toast. In practice…

  5. Stephanpollock. Demise not my words . I like every othet celtic fan want the people who have aided the survival of the rangrrs gone , gone from the position that allows them to fidget with the rule book in aid of one club over all others

    Spiers saying he found Gilmour “quite convincing”. Mind you he also rates Paul ‘the debt was coming down’ Murray as “an impressive guy”.

    Young – “it wasn’t a St Mirren tie – it was a black and white tie”. So Chick, what colours are a St mirren tie?

    Charles Green makes Neil Lennon sound like a language-disciple of Mary Whitehouse.

    That interview is incredible ….it is now official……greengo is ‘not the full shilling’

     

     

    Absolutely hilarious that one person can fool so many peepul all the time….

  11. Chuckes is now showing he is hopelessly out of his depth and the lies are beginning to unravel.

     

    Amazingly MSM appear to be on the case.

     

    I genuinely fear for his safety now given the record of the Sevconians

  12. Burghbhoy @ 18:02,

     

     

    The powers that be changed the punishment following Rangers going into administration.

     

     

    After the overt aiding and abetting of RFCia by the authorities they were worried it could set a precedent and moral.

     

     

    It’s not everyone who understands it is important to minimise any damage to RFC and Scottish Football need a strong Rangers who are obviously a special case.

     

     

    So to insure no other Football Club get the crazy idea that they will be handled with Kid Gloves through administration, serial malpractice and non-compliance they changed the punishment to prevent moral hazard.

     

     

    Hail! Hail!

    ‘Amazingly MSM appear to be on the case.’

     

     

     

     

    The MSM are being drip fed by Whyte.

     

     

    Outlet 1 knows that if they don’t publish he’ll give the info to outlet 2.

  14. !!Bada Bing!! on

    The thing about a liar like Challs is he can’t keep his mouth shut………..which is nice.

     

    Fastshowcsc

  15. WTF!

     

     

    We are being told by the Tories we need to tighten our belts even further and they blow £8 Mn on a funeral for that bitch.

     

     

    Shameful.

    There’s only ever one version of the truth. If you start lying you have to be consistent all the time or you end up tripping yourself up. Will be interesting to see how this pans out…..

  17. 67Heaven ... I am Neil Lennon..!!.. Ibrox belongs to the creditors on

    Been reading back……NOT LONG NOW, BHOYS…….I think greengo is about to sell the shares and ‘run’ …….I’m just not clear on who the hell is going to buy them…….even Property Developers will resist the temptation, with BDO ready to pounce on behalf of the creditors…….oooooow .. I have a good feeling about the way this all developing…….good old LL, keep quiet about it, just for a wee while longer……Hahahahahahahahahahahaha

  18. I assume the SFA have been kettled for the past week, seeing as there has been no comment from them regarding Chuckles.

    “Charles Green better be careful with FPLG as Ally knows where all the bodies are buried”

     

     

    Unbelievable comment – I though everything was above board Chico?

     

     

    “I know for a fact that Ally know’s things”

     

     

    Come on then Chic, you’re a reporter aren’t you, what do you know?

  20. !!Bada Bing!! on

    Wee Chick”Sally will go back into show business” nearly spat the dinner oot

  21. corkcelt had a great afternoon with the son of one of Irelands legendry freedom fighters. We talked about the war of Independence, Cork Hurling, Margaret Thatcher & Glasgow Celtic. l’m more then half drunk at the moment so wont get involved in the blog. Just to say I thought I might wake up today and feel some forgiveness for Maggie but Naw I didn’t. Ding Dong.

    Like where the nearest Greggs is?

  25. Ulysses McGhee @ 18:48,

     

     

    It was interesting what Mr Green said regarding the taped conversations.

     

     

    If yo seen some tampering with the smartphone under the table you may well ask…

     

     

    Are you using your dictaphone.

     

     

    But Charles didn’t, he reckons he was fore warned.

     

     

    By whom? Is the question.

     

     

    Hail! Hail!

  26. Green can’t sell his shares. It would breach the terms of the IPO I think. I can’t recall what the time embargo is on him.

  27. skyisalandfill on
