Belgians premature

1296

The Belgian league put the cat amongst the waffles yesterday by declaring the Jupiler League over and Bruges champions.  They sorted out their TV and other commercial arrangements and can start next season as soon as it is safe to do so.

There are very few calls to cut seasons short.  Tight leagues, such as in Italy and Spain, would forever  have questions hanging over them, while those assured of winning the title, as in Scotland and England, want to do so on the field, not at a league meeting.  Still, it was nice to see panic among the Null and Voiders, who would rather everyone lost than anyone (Celtic) won.

The Belgians have been pragmatic but premature, football is finished for the season, their champions are assured without controversy and they will accommodate those threatened with relegation.  The rest of Europe still clings to the hope that competition can start behind closed doors in the summer.  It will next month before we know if this is possible, there is no reason to make decisions before then.

    I don’t think his playin’ prowess translates well into a coaching role.

     

     

    His media work here in Ireland doesn’t mark him out as someone with a particular insight.

    BADA

     

     

    The alternative is letting this view define the blog.

     

     

    ==================================================================

     

     

    Or the view reflected by many on this blog that to be a Celtic supporter you must conform to the basic rules .

     

     

    You really should be :

     

    A Catholic

     

    A supporter of the papacy.

     

    A hater of the British monarchy.

     

    A Socialist . Or preferably a communist .

     

    A Labour voter.

     

    A hater of the Conservative party.

     

    A supporter of the IRA.

     

    A hater of the British army and British soldiers .

     

    A supporter of Palestine.

     

    A hater of Israel ( and in some cases sadly , its association with those of the Jewish faith )

     

    A hater of the British Empire.

     

    An uncritical supporter of the Republic of Ireland .( ” Whose lives are pledged to Ireland ” )

     

    An insulter of Scotland .

     

     

    All basically mirroring the anti Catholic exclusion practised by the huns for decades .

     

     

    All in complete opposition to the basic Celtic ethos of ” open to all ” .

     

    UNLESS.

    “That however has nothing to do with the fact that Covid 19 is just another Chinese export.

     

    In spite of her pathetic assertions that it was Americans visiting Wuhan who imported the virus ( Does any thinking person believe that nonsense ? ) , the established fact is that China is the origin and exporter of the virus.

     

    Their attempted cover up and the arrest and detention of doctors warning about this new alarming strain proves that they kne w right at the start the seriousness of the situation and their utter culpability in it`s spread”.

     

     

    I note as usual, you ran a mile from the info provided below, when it comes to establishing fact’s you really don’t, do you? You spout pure made up pish and propaganda, all bullshit. And the only response to fact checking you can provide is, they are bad, don’t listen to them, only listen to the outlets you know from experience have lied to you.

    Excerpt from above link

     

     

    Given the foregoing context, it is not surprising that a new coronavirus, SARS-CoV2 (which causes the disease COVID-19), has emerged and is now causing a serious pandemic wreaking havoc all over the world. The official narrative of the US Center for Disease Control, WHO, most governments and the mainstream media is that SARS-CoV2 has its origin in bats and is linked to a large seafood and live animal market in Wuhan, China, the epicenter of the pandemic and where it was reportedly first discovered. Even the Chinese Center for Disease Control initially announced that SARS-CoV2 started at the seafood market in Wuhan.

     

     

    Later, though, a spokesman for China’s ministry of foreign affairs claimed that COVID-19 may have been brought into China by US soldiers who were in Wuhan 14 days before the first case of SARS-CoV2 infection was discovered, and that the origin might be the United States.36 He cited reports that Japanese and Taiwanese epidemiologists and pharmacologists have determined that the new coronavirus could have originated in the US, since that country is the only one known to have all five types – from which all others must have descended. Wuhan in China has only one of those types, rendering it in analogy as a kind of “branch” which cannot exist by itself but must have grown from a “tree.” Part of the proof of this assertion is that the genome varieties of the virus in Iran and Italy have been sequenced and declared to have no part of the variety that infected China and must, by definition, have originated elsewhere.37 It would seem the only possibility for origination would be the US because only that country has the “tree trunk” of all the varieties.38

    Anyone do anything different on their wedding day?

     

    ………..

     

    On the morning of my 2nd Wedding…in 1999…I went to a Pub at opening time that Friday morn ( Danny McGrains Pub at Parkheid Cross)…and as I wasnt due to be married til around 4pm…I drank a few Beers…maybe 9 or 10 ?

     

    Chatting to the Barmaids who I didnt know…they were horrified that I was still sitting drinking at the bar at 2pm…and due to be married 2 hours later…. ” You better go hame ya eejit and get ready” they said !
