Bring the glory home from Perth

393

Willie Maley’s 1917 62-game unbeaten run in domestic football (or just football, as it was back then) was matched against Kilmarnock, but as Rangers fans found out in 1998, you should never assume that just because you can match a record, you can beat it.

Tomorrow Celtic’s shot at history goes on the line at McDiarmid Park against St Johnstone, where we last lost a domestic game, back in May 2016. St Johnstone have already relieved Celtic of a couple of points this season, and will have no fears of what they face in tomorrow’s early kick off.

For Brendan Rodgers, the challenge will be to peak energy levels after an emotionally and physically draining evening against Bayern Munich on Tuesday. His players are Celtic, not Robotic, and he will know there is a very real chance of a reversal, if we are anything less than 100% prepared.

History is yours for the taking, Celtic.  Bring the glory home from Perth.

From a small village on the north-east coast of Ireland to the treble-winning manager of Celtic, Brendan Rodgers’ football journey has been a remarkable one of dedication, hard work, a desire to always keep improving and a determination to succeed at the highest level of the sport … and throughout his life there has always been a love of his team … Celtic Football Club.

In his own words, Brendan Rodgers tells his story – from a promising young footballer growing up in Carnlough and dreaming of playing for Celtic one day through to his professional career – as a player, a coach and now as one of football’s top managers. And Celtic supporters will also enjoy an insight into a remarkable season – from the first competitive game in Gibraltar through to the thrilling Scottish Cup final, with plenty of highlights in between, including the manager’s first trophy triumph and some unforgettable Glasgow derbies.

  1. Being set up for a media ambush no doubt about it, the accounts of Sevco tonight have warranted no mention on SKY and nothing on the BBC Scotland website, Phil is getting the numbers crunched, as was blogged earlier finance of 4m needed for this year and just less than that for next year,losses have doubled, now they wouldn’t be trying to conceal this from any new manager would they? How are they allowed to jepordise the integrity of the league by trading in this way in the hope of winning money not trophies to justify their existence.

  2. Sipsini – As DD said I think we all brought some form of the Lurgy home except for Ms S, hope your well after your Chest Infection.

    Anything to tarnish our unbeaten record will be used by scum SMSM. Hope our travelling support give them nothing to work with.

  6. Dessybhoy- i have asked before what is trading insolvent? Getting loans every other month to keep the lights on, whilst still bringing players in? Nobody has the balls to challenge The Gang.

    I was fine after Lisbon,back on the Sunday and straight in for a nightshift.

     

     

    Yoozuraw a buncha lightweights(!)

     

     

    Mind,suffered badly from dehydration at times,so I canny really slag anyone off.

     

     

    Great time had by one and all,genuinely a memory to treasure.

    Comparing Ms S diet and drinking in Munich, compared to you, Sips and I, tells a story of why your partner returned from Munich healthy, whilst us 3 didnae. Hahaha

  10. Judging by the replies to the Celtic tweet there is absolutely no chance of the silence passing without incident. Rather than avoid the trap, it seems the young team are mobilising a response.

  11. BRTH: Breithlá sona duit.

     

     

    InvincibleGG: Thanks for advice on ‘Neverads’. I tried to download it today but my iPad won’t let me, saying it is incompatible.

     

     

    On the subject of adblockers for this site, as soon as I open CQN my Adblock browser shuts down immediately after I touch the screen.

     

     

    Anyone else got this problem?

  12. BMCUW-A limited company becomes insolvent when it can no longer pay its bills when due, or its liabilities

     

     

    Maybe the legal bhoys on here can keep us right…..HH

  13. BRTH just catching up and discovered you are celebrating today. Happy Birthday. Hope the day has been an enjoyable one for you.

  14. Bada

     

    How others live, really confirms this is all about money not football not sport, it can only be kept under wraps due to the influence of certain people , I’m not an accountant however if I run my finances in this way I would be bankrupt and quickly, I suupose trading insolvently would require all financial information to be available which I have serious doubts is the case. Souness told them, sugar daddy needed or youth development they are doing neither and losing plenty.

  15. Celtic fans set up for a fall tomorrow. Please God they are too clever for it. Ignore it and then celebrate our own culture. So much positivity about the support this week – don’t let them steal it away!

  16. BOBBY MURDOCH'S CURLED-UP WINKLEPICKERS on

    !!BADABING!!

     

     

    The bills are being paid due to increased borrowing. This adds to the total debts or liabilities.

     

     

    As long as those liabilities are less than the book value of their assets-or if the company is showing a current account trading profit-they are fine.

     

     

    Which,at the moment,Sevco is.

     

     

    On paper.

     

     

    But only due to an inflated value placed on their assets. Such as the stadium-which is a liability in itself!!

  17. Ta for replies Bhoys, i just hope some do not fall in to the trap before the game, which St J were bullied into having, by Jabba and his goons.

    Wise words. Pray our young team use the heid. Fear they won’t and protest during the silence.

    BMCUW & Delaney’s

     

     

    Likewise bhoys – both wish we had longer – will sort that on 11/11

  21. WITS

     

     

    Read your story of Kevin Spacey and Colin Farrell. My daughter revealed a story her friend James McAvoy told her years ago about something similar.

     

    Westminster worse than Hollywood it seems now.

  22. But Dick Wilson of Shortbread , reporting from somewhere very very deep in Johnnesburg, said last week from Scotland’s national broadcaster(subscription manditory), that there were no monwy worries at Ibrox and all roads were on the up….

  23. Hi Bhoys

     

     

    Can someone tell me how a company losing over £6M in a year can be reported as being in a good financial situation?

     

     

    KEEP THE FAITH

  24. Minutes silence.

     

     

    Easy do as they do in Italy, as soon as the whistle sounds start clapping as in a minutes applause, everyone then joins in easy mistake to make as these now happen as often as silences.

  25. getting phished now but recalling an episode when i was 8 yrs old. 1961 scroll by if im boring you .local newsagent.s my dad always insisted i wear my celtic strip with those big brown football boots .in i go the evening citizen and a mars bar. big man sitting behind the counter grey wavy hair navy blue blazer scotland badge on the pocket red white and blue tie. did your dad send you yes i replied that will be thruppence for the citizen the mars bar is on me. later in life he tells me that was jock tiger shaw true story.

  26. It’s a trap OK. No need for the silence 8 days before the event. Chances are, with an emotional fringe plus having a few beers in, there will be some level of noise.

     

    I’m expecting some noise plus the usual MSM assault afterwards, there is absolutely nothing can be done about it,

     

    There will of course also be an assault on CQN tomorrow, now that I will find hard to deal with.

  27. *** LAST MAN STANDING 9 – WEEK 6 ***
