Biton and the holding position

678

I was discussing Beram Kayal during the week, specifically how he was keeping Victor Wanyama out of the Celtic team before that ‘tackle’ from Rangers’ McCulloch put him out of action for months.  The player has never recovered his form but has never had a sustained run in the team either.

Nir Biton has made the holding position his own in recent weeks and, as a consequence, we’ve watched his form improve.  News that he picked up an injury when playing for Israel against Slovakia last week, which is likely to disrupt his appearances for weeks, has come at the worst possible time.  If he is to make this position his own, he needs performances between now and the end of the season.

Young players especially need games to reinforce their craft and build confidence, as well as to ensure fitness.

“”Claire, where is my passport?” I was frantic now as I pleaded with my wife. She must know I thought. Claire, my wife of twelve years, suffers my trips away to support Celtic without a single moan. Not this time though as Claire would not give me her blessing to go on this trip telling me that our bakery was now at critical point, busy and with too many European away days this year they had taken their toll.”

    Just saying this afore I leave the blog……

     

     

    Because certain fans don’t want to see the huns again

     

    disny mean that – ye wulny!!!

     

     

    Because resolution 12 ‘might’ prove – collusion / cheating / whatever…..

     

    disny mean that the ‘bored’ will pursue the SFA / Whoever ?

     

     

    What will make the ‘bored’ act and, go for the bassas who cheated the

     

    Celtic support and, the support’s of all the other Scottish clubs in competition

     

    with the huns is, now….I know that this might not be the right time, with respect

     

    but, the Celtic ‘bored’ don’t have to put in a shift for your money cos, you just

     

    turn up with the best intentions for Celtic with yer contributions to the club but,

     

    you have ask yerselve’s…at what point does the ‘bored’ fight ‘YOUR’ battles ?

     

     

    I would say that, they have enjoy a charmed existence cos, they don’t have to work for ‘your’

     

    money. So…change that dynamic. Only ‘YOU’ can make the ‘bored’ get the gloves on, get into the ring and, fight the corner of the of the vicTIMS of the greatest sporting scandal in the history of the game.

     

     

    When yer SB-renewal forms drop through the door…get yer thinking caps on.

     

     

    It’s at this time of the year that, ‘YOU’ get the chance to call the shots – not at a hand-picked AGM were shareholders are easily kidded-on with – Rory Bremner style – cheap digs at the huns. Yeah, very funny. The ‘bored’ must have a collective wet-dream when these pea-shooters farces are played out. Talk about mugs ? Aye…..

     

     

    One more fence for the died-huns to jump and they’ll be right back – cheating the nicks off yeez and what will the ‘bored’ do about it ? F all – as usual. imho

     

     

    It’s ‘YOUR’ call fellow Tims – be shady or – be shafted !

     

     

    Good luck to you all – Goodbye.

    Taking in the sickening charade still going on the other side of Glasgow , can anyone really find fault with what the much maligned Kevin j posted the other day ( above ) I certainly can’t .

  2. I trusted Tony Benn. And – unlike almost every other modern day politician – I believed him to be essentially a good man.

     

    RIP

    The Labour Party leadership issue is a bit of a goldfish shoot in terms of highlighting past incumbents who were allegedly not good and compromised Labour Party principles…….so that’s the easy bit. The more difficult task I fear would be to ask the many detractors to ‘name that leader’ .

  6. Som mes que un club on

    A credible 4th in the Cheltenham Naps, so shan’t be too despondent. Last winner was Wednesday 1440, so that was a disappointment….

     

     

    Today’s pick is:

     

     

    Baltic Pathfinder

     

     

    Newcastle 1450.

     

     

    All the best.

    Oh ma heid! Great night at CQteN, but the late whiskies were a mistake.

     

    Fleagle – you’re a star for organising the Cheltenham naps, Eddie was a worthy winner with some very consistent tipping over the four days. PF was very unlucky!

     

    I was jumping about my living room like a mad eejit when Lord Windermere got up to win the big one….very emotional win after it travelled so poorly for most of the race.

     

     

    Right, I need to clear my napper and I’ll be back with a selection….groan!
