Celtic fans to blame, apparently

902

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.

  1. Chelskis plan to build their new Billion pound state of the art stadium is being blocked by the Crosthwaites who live in a cottage adjacent to Stamford Bridge because it will block out the light to their home despite being offered £1 million. The Crosthwaites are holding out for £20 million. London what’s it like ? Hh

    I’ll have your reply word for word. I just have to persuade Corky. He’s up against it big time,and I don’t want to let him down,but if he has to represent himself on Monday-which he will-it’s a slam dunk for the authorities.

     

     

    Fingers crossed,but he’s like a lot of us,right stubborn.

    Good luck to them. I hope they check their teapot for Plutonium.

    I’ve just been barred from FB page re old football players because I mentioned John Martin was a scab..

     

     

    A well

  5. Bmcuwp My thoughts exactly. They tend to use slightly more direct negotiating tactics back in the old USSR. Hh

    You can get barred for saying Sevco on some MSM sites. Seems truth does not go down too well.

    Aye,just a bit!

     

     

    I recall an old Derek and Clive sketch where one of them was relating his visit to the USSR. He said-

     

     

    “Say what you like about the Russians,their Health Service is second to none. First sign you’re ill,they shoot you!”

  8. Sevco storming to victory in the Florida Cup and their fans doing them proud in a Donald Trump kind of way. Maybe they have finally found a home where their beliefs and attitudes can be truly appreciated. Hh

    Hello this is WEE BGFC, Just listenng to they American commentators on that huns game. They have obviously been fed bull**** by some bitter hun at premier sports. It was like listening to hun TV! Everything from a The rangurs perspective and the last straw was right at the end when the guy says “since they were relegated”. Petty hun-guffery of the highest order.

    The first thing I thought of when I heard the “shithole countries” v Norway story was…

     

     

    Why would anyone move from Norway to,oh,you know the rest!

    I’m quite happy to hear them saying they were relegated. Rangers never were,so Celtic uniquely hold that position.

     

     

    We know the truth. If you have loads of hun mates as I do,they know it too. We haven’t talked about football in about six years. Apart from one guy,and once only.

     

     

    They know,mate. Oh for sure,they know.

    Trump is different.

     

     

    He is saving lives…… Abortion should not be happening.

     

     

    Every President or Prime Minister LIES… Donald is proving that and doing it without disguising it.

     

     

    The POTUS isnae an office for a Religious dude.

    But it might be the last they take to the pawn shop…

  14. Bada I expect they will parade their mickey mouse trophy on an open top bus from the airport to Ibrox. Hh

  15. Dallas Dallas where the heck is Dallas on

    Blantyre Tim, , A Hearts fan on that site had a wee pop at me as I had posted it was Hearts own fault they lost the league in1986 as they settled for one goal victories and draws in to any games.

     

     

    With regard to the former Airdrie goalie being on that site, I would not even acknowledge his presence on it even though you were right with your description of him.

     

     

    We played Airdrie in the first game of the 79/80 season . He conceded a goal very early in the game . He was regaled with a few choruses of ‘he wants to play for Rangers , ah haha’ .

    Bada,

     

     

    They are lovely people. When you think about it even under Murray and the height of his EBT empire, should they have progressed in Europe how could anyone out with Scotland not see what they are. The Scottish equivalent of the KKK a none PC entity

    It’s turnes into a Rangers tribute site and I’ve bit my tongue till today

     

     

    I’m banned now anyway so feck them.

     

     

    The pictures I have of Celtic would probably upset them anyway, especially the one when TOHG was going to throttle the fat bas Harper

    They have been. Frequently. The last team otherwise was Hearts.

    MACJAY is fine,smashing,cool and dandy. And a lovely bloke. Even though I can barely agree with any of his opinions,I love him to bits and always have.

     

     

    He still looks in,btw. And I’m sure he misses posting as much as we miss him posting.

     

     

    Hope you and yours are all tip top.

    History of Aberdeen F.C.

     

    Aberdeen Football Club are one of Scotland’s most successful football teams and have the distinction of never having been relegated. Among clubs which have been playing in the senior Scottish leagues for more than 20 years, only Celtic and Rangers (liquidated and re-entered into the lower divisions, but not relegated) share this distinction.

     

    Hail Hail

    I retract my previous erroneous statement. But you’re only right cos they changed the rules to stop them getting relegated about twenty years ago!

     

     

    Erm,I think…

  25. Dallas Dallas where the heck is Dallas on

    Blantyre Tim, I always try to show respect to other clubs except two, one no longer here and their tribute act, but it is very short in supply towards us with regard to the great players we have had.

     

     

    I have stopped myself posting that my favourite chant to an oppsition player was Roll out the Barrel , Harper’s a barrel of. S!!!e.

     

     

    This might make Delaney’s feel a bit better, Villareal beat Real 1 nil at the Bernabeu earlier. Their first ever win there.

     

     

    Delaney’s my old chum, I hope you are feeling soon.
