I see Celtic fans are being blamed for rumours of Newco’s administration by their former manager, Ally McCoist. He could argue that. Alternatively, you could suggest that a business unable to secure bank borrowing, dependent on funding from directors, who will soon be forced to find £11m to make a share offer, has created more than enough financial uncertainty without Celtic fans’ assistance.
McCoist suggested “even the biggest Celtic fans in the country” do not want to see Newco go into administration. Not so sure you are right there, Ally. Personally, I would find it a funny, but it is not going to change anything. It would not lead to relegation and will not change the title race in any way.
The most significant outcome of administration could be forcing control from Dave King. Which would be a source of enormous regret.
You hang in there, Dave.
The CQN Podcast: A Celtic State of Mind (EP28) with former Celtic director Tom Grant
Paul John Dykes and Kevin Graham are joined by Celtic’s ex-director, Tom Grant, who offers a fascinating insight into the running of the club in the 1980s and 1990s.
Tom Grant explains exactly why Celtic refused to complete the Mo Johnston transfer in 1989, and lifts the lid on audacious efforts by Billy McNeill to recruit Peter Beardsley and Steve Bruce.
Tom Grant also dissects his relationship with Fergus McCann, and the impact of the ‘Celts For Change’ movement in overturning the ‘family dynasty’ board in 1994.

BIGJIMMY
Hope you had the winner of the 1-15 at Warwick !
………………………
FFS Mate…..DON’T post about the sport of kings on here, certain guys get rather upset.
I wonder if say Brendan Rodgers bought a race horse and it was running in the Grand National or Derby etc….and it was 50/1…and Brendan and the Trainer and the feckin Jockey were telling the WHOLE World how this horse was going to win blah blah………………….but because of one poster we can’t mention on here ?
So we could miss out on our manager giving us Celts a bit of “INSIDE INFORMATION”…..just cos it upsets one guy ?
There was a post today that stated that WITS has been posting horse racing Tips on here for some time….has anyone objected about WITS posts of a horsey nature….or is it just feckin MINE ?
No offence to you WITS mate..hope you know that ?
HH
Big Jimmy.
Well done. I’m delighted for you.
Maybe you’ll find yourself a woman tonight too or maybe a woman will find you.
I bet some of Mr Henderson’s horses, so I’m roughly sixty quid up on the day and happy at that.
Incidentally,Mr Henderson said yesterday in an interview, that despite being married today, that he intended to watch all of his horses run on TV.
He was worried that the timing of the ceremony would clash with one race but hoped the Minister would hurry the service along so that he could watch the race. An old romantic is Nicky (not )

Calm doon!

I hope I’m not speaking out of turn here.
Yes, Bari are delighted with young Hendo.
I believe he has been offered a tidy contract and young Mr Hendo is now mulling it over.
Hail Hail
BIGJIMMY
I backed Hendo at 7/2,Jenkins. Nice few pound on it.
Since I’d tipped you off about the champion jockey being back,I intended to hammer him all day. But I got stuck in good company instead and only got round in time to back Jenkins and the runner up in the flat race.
Got a bottle of 45% bourbon,Bullett,and an unusual Scotch,Copper Dog,for a score.
Had worse days. And so have you!!!!
Now,here’s my advice to someone who never listens to advice,unless it’s from a good guy.
Put yer winnings in your back pocket and sit on them.
Aye,that’ll be right. Gaun oot and get pished,big fella. Live a little.

.FFS Mate…I wish you would all stop talking about the horses on here..it upsets some folk apparently !
LOL.
I take it that Mr Henderson walked down the ” BRIDLE PATH” today ?
Is the new Mrs Henderson now “SADDLED” with him forever ?
I wonder if Mrs Henderson will “REIN ” him in from now on ?
Will the new Mrs Henderson “NAG” poor Nicky to death…like most wives do ?
Will Nicky ( at his age and weight) be able to ” GO THE DISTANCE” on his Wedding Night ?
these are the burning questions that MUST be asked !
I’ll get ma coat.

JIMMYNOTPAUL
Aye,I’ve got a reputation to live down to!
I think BJ is definitely needing to get out more. He’s worse than me,can start a fight in an empty hoose.
BIGJIMMY
I’ve decided,mate. It’s official. Ye’ve gone stir crazy. Get yersel oot and get blootered. It’s the only language we understand.
And when you waken up in the morning,and you can remember sod all about it,think of the pleasure of finally finding out the next time yer in the pub.
It works for me,that’s for sure!!!

.ME…..Start a fight ?
Never !
I was simply expressing my delight at having 8…YES EIGHT feckin winners and apparently that upsets someone ?
If I won £10 MILLION on the Lottery Tonight or any other night….am I NOT allowed to share that excellent news on here ?

HH
BMCUW
I also backed Jenkins at 7’s and had £100 off fitba coupon for 3 draws so the dry January could be hit on the head tonight ! BIGJIMMY cannae believe you never backed Big Jim ! but sounds as if you done ok otherwise , anyway i suppose that’s enough horsey talk !! Enjoy your beers !
JIMBO67
One of these years,you’re coming down here for Cheltenham,pal. Tenner on the train,kip at my place,beer and bets.
You thought Las Vegas was flash,wait till you get yer hands on a cheap trip to the finest festival of racing in the world. I’ll talk to you about it next time I see you.
Hope yer smashin’,my Bobster pal.

JIMMYNOTPAUL
I see Paddy’s game was off today but at least he’s got the pleasure of a trip to Dalmellington in the West of Scotland cup ! Another hun infested place !!
BIGJIMMY
Get aff yer high horse,ya big galoot. Starting a fight in an empty hoose,that’s a remark,not a pop.
Get oot and hammer it,bud. I’d join you-with glee and some pleasure-if I wasn’t 400 miles away. So I’ll raise a glass as I think of you in good form,cash in pocket,gagging for a damn good night.
You deserve it. So go for it. Nae point in being miserable.
BMCUWP
If I had a bucket list Cheltenham for the Festival would be on it.
BIG JIMMY
Cheers. 8 winners? More than I have managed this decade! ( Not much of an exaggeration)

Well done young fella.
I only noticed the horse BIG JIM…after I had put on all my bets, I think it was about 3/1 early on, so I was just happy to stick to Hendersons and Richard Johnsons horses.
HH
I wonder if auld Nicky will have “THE BIT” between his teeth tonight ?
Right ……….enough….PLENTY…
AFF OOT.
HH
BMCUWP,
I shall also do likewise ………and raise a glass or 15 to you tonight mate
Defo…aff oot.
HH
Park Rd.
Yes pitch was still frozen in places.
They played Bathgate away (again not exactly Tim friendly) in a friendly instead. Cumbernauld won 3.1.
I seen the Girvan result, as you have said a few hard fixtures coming up, if Girvan consolidate their position in the top league then it will have been a successful season in my opinion. Pollok beat Bankies.
Hail Hail
Just thinking Bhoys and Ghirls….I wonder how much I could have won IF…I had ALL those 8 winners on the one line ?
No…I won’t even go near that calculation…sometimes in life…ignorance is feckin Bliss.

Dalmellington,aw that takes me back to when I worked for Sky at the turn of the century.
Dalmellington,Patna,the Cumnocks,Auchinleck. Et al. Some wee villages that even I’d never heard of.
There was nothing in them,apart from people. No work short of selling stuff to each other.
Same,really,wi The Three Towns in North Ayrshire,there’s yer hope there’s yer reality,gtf cos we don’t care.
Breaks my heart.
Who would win a flight between Big Jimmy and Big Jimmy?
Honestly Jimmy calm doon AND keep posting your horses .you’re on a great roll with Henderson and what a day for Johnston at Wetherby.
Keep up the good work Jimmy
flight *
Should be fight…of course
Big Jimmy
Had my 1st pint of year today and as I walked into pub pal said he was waiting horse for 4 out of 4 lucky 15, Henderson horse won at 7’s his line payed £1200
He has had another few after that so well done bookie bashers the country over
On a personal point, didn’t enjoy my beer so must still be ill ☘️☘️☘️☘️
WHATISTHESTARS
I’d back BIGJIMMY to win that. And knowing my luck,it would be a draw!
Thanks for the tip yesterday,but I was cotted by then and missed it. Congratulations to all who backed it.
Say hi to the TW,are you still thinking about Lisbon again at the start of June?
Wish that zombie club would hurry up and die.
HH.
Hoddle is a total prick of a man
Bmcuwp
Actually booked a flight last week .leave Dublin Friday evening the 1st June and return Monday 4th June
WIts
not sure , big Jimmy might talk big Jimmy to death or out of a fight because he would rather discuss it over a few beers
He did like a chat
BLANTYRETIM
Didnae enjoy yer beer? Oh,sair yin.
I always know when I’m fighting off flu,rather than just a wee cauld. My fags taste rotten.
Last time it beat me was early 90s. Too late to stop it,I had to kill it.
I had to use the nuclear option.
Home,bottle of Scotch and two duvets.
God,my bedroom was like a sauna. My sister would occasionally pop her head in wi some water-not for the whisky!-and my fags still tasted rotten.
Totally fine the next day,but unable to eat anything. Which was a disaster as my lass was from Minneapolis/St Paul’s and she had organised-and cooked-a big do for Thanksgiving.
It was an unbelievable spread,and I could barely look at it. My mouth still waters thinking about it.
And her.
