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.

Forgot to thank Ivehadtochangemyname for putting Not only my late Dad’s fav singer but also song ,namely John McCormack and Maggie.
Dad was called John and my mother Margaret .I found hi Mass card in a bag a couple of weeks ago and put it in my wallet.Told you the Big Man………
Btw he died in 1959 so a long time ago.
Is there any creature on God’s green earth who is more acutely stupid than the Sevconian?
Just read the retort from the Sevconians who think that The BBs song celebrates a historical victory in battle when some blood was spilled.
Which battle would that be then?
COSY CORNER BHOY, john mcormack was my late fathers fav singer, i hear you calling me and macushla his favourites. going out to mass now catch you later.hh.

I’m not aware of anything,but I’ll forward this to BRT&H who may know more about it.
PS-apologies for my iPad autocorrecting to Willie Ferrie last night. Only noticed it this morning. D’oh!!!
Mea,
The Florida organisers have already apologised for the Hun’s sectarian singing. Nothing in our media about it
PP Bhoys: My point was that they don’t even understand what the song is actually about.
Mea,
Tbh most of the Hun’s I know are that thick they don’t understand either. One said to me “I just like the tunes”
According to the Sunday Fail WillIam Fullerton head of the ‘Bridgeton Billy Boys’ and notorious facist was ‘someone who shared mainstream values and was revered throughout Glasgow’. The rag does revisionism like no other. Hh

Wonderful post!
Thanks!
I have no, zero, nada, zilchio interests in the nags.
But I do raise a wee smile at how much many of you like it. And a still bigger smile when you win.
Last day of the honeymoon. Dreading going home. Gonna get a shock to the system when it takes more than ‘shu-ku-rea’ and a polite smile to get a beer!

Gordon 64,
There is no doubt that Billy Fullerton was revered by a large part of Glasgow ‘s population. Despite being penniless and living in poverty, the thug and wife beater had a lavish funeral.
The sectarian gang culture with links to organised crime and associations with various political parties was in effect mainstream at that time.
It is part of Glasgow’s history, warts and all.
I was unaware that Fullerton’s electoral constituency at the time had the second most Catholic constituents in the UK after a place in Liverpool.
I was also unaware that some Catholics attended his funeral and that Fullerton carried Peter Keenan above his head at Celtic Park.
It is ironic that the facist ideology that Fullerton and his cronies advocated became the enemy of the crown in a blood thirsty war.
Imo the songs that some Neanderthals sing to honour Fullerton only serve to show ignorance and are actually a national embarrassment .
This topic had actually come up on an old Glasgow Facebooking site. It is unfortunately a big part of Glasgow’s unsavoury history and cannot be airbrushed.
Sorry about the long post.
HH.
Gordon64,

Och its rubbish. Talking about Michael O’Neill and the Scotland job.
Who cares.
Greenpinata & Shuggiebhoy67 Good stuff. Also worth watching on BBC Catch up ‘The storm that saved a city’. If you know your history. Hh
Curious for opinions from our ulster celts.
Given O’Neill’s relative success with northern ireland is his religion ever mentioned by the Windsor park supporters or the press.
Any comments ?
;-)
SAINT STIVS, probably hated like neil francis, bomb threats for feck sake.
Celtic star Jozo Simunovic isn’t worth £8million and Lazio shouldn’t splash cash on him says Lorenzo Amorous.
The Sunday Post and the Daily Record.
Pathetic.

God just watching a recording of one of last night’s NFL play offs between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Atlanta Falcons when the American commentary team take a moment to pay tribute to a famous NFL TV commentator who has died aged 90. His name: Keith Jackson.
Glengarry.
Fascinating read.
Ta for sharing.
Brilliant pictures as well.
Need to go explore the area before a game someday.
Sacred heart needs more recognition in the Celtic history.
