I was lucky enough to be in San Francisco a few years ago and I went a walk through the fantastically interesting China Town.
After a crackin meal we were walking in said district when we came into a wee street full of brick-a-brack shops.
While looking around I seen in a wee shop a statue of a giant rat which I thought would look cool in my living room.
I asked the Chinese owner how much it was and he replied ‘ ah the giant rat statue is $100 but it is another $200 for the story behind it’.
Well,I was a bit skint and just bought the statue.
As I walked out the shop with my giant rat statue, there were a load of rats started coming from everywhere and following me.
Down to Union Square- more rats following me and the giant rat statue. Now I was getting worried and as I walked in the bay area thousands of rats were now following me.
By the time I got to the Golden Gate Bridge I had easily 50,000 rats following me so I said to myself ‘ I’m getting rid of this statue ‘
I chucked the statue of the giant rat off the bridge and into the water and every single rat that was following me jumped in after the statue and drowned.
I went back to the shop and the wee Chinese shop owner said ‘ aha I take it you are back to hear the story behind the statue?’
Says me ‘ No mate. Do you have any statues that look like huns? ‘
From the first link on auldheid’s last post:
“There is no doubt that the issue of sectarianism in Scotland has moved into a new phase since the events of April and May, with the First Minister asserting that tackling it in all its forms will be a priority for the new government.”
So I fully expect the sectarian marches to stop. Doesn’t wee lexy’s statement above say it will happen?
Ban all hun marches lexy. Otherwise, your fucked with a certain demographic of voters.
But you already knew………………………………..that. And, I don’t think sectarian bigots walking our streets in new order colour hunnish gamentry will phase the wee plumper first Minister.
He has no shame.
Free the Pat, the faither of bobby Murdoch’s mangled shoe’s is innocent.

Thanks for the responses on how John Herron played today.
Sorry I couldn’t respond earlier but my flight was called and being the oul charmer I am I managed to persuade the lady at the counter I should get priority boarding.
It was either the Scottish accent of the Celtic symbol on my tee shirt.
Having been out of touch for a week in the beautiful, remote Keys, I’d like to confirm that Gorgeous Giorgios had a royal baby named after him.

FFM – I appreciate that post chief.
Thank fk you are a Celt.
Always said that,it is remarkable how intelligent the Celtic support are.
That’s why the can never defeat us.
But we must be united,we can destroy ourselves.
Ireland’s civil war is a prime example.
ACGR – Try not to take the bait chief.
There are Huns and agitators all over this place.
Your support of the mighty Celtic is without condition.
Let the zombies worry about it.
FFS,
Are we seeing some blatant truths now?
The right questions being asked???
Why do yon fuds who lap at the board ignore the issue with the GB?
Are they not Celtic Supporters?
Do you want to see them dismissed?
The arguments all week on CQN have been abysmal.
Yet they win.
We must destroy the marxist Green Brigade…..”the words of Celtic Supporters”, 2013.
LET ME REPEAT THAT:

I never knew Father Glancy but I have no doubt he was a good man. I’ve been lucky in life, I’ve never known a bad priest, my favourite of them all was Father Trainor of St. Pauls, Whiteinch.
I was in his “folk” group that played for Mass.
Great bloke.

The nightmare nemesis of Nordic noir
MIKAEL Lustig put club before country three nights ago and intends to do the same on Wednesday when Elfsborg come to Glasgow, even if the act damages the Celtic defender’s popularity with the rest of Sweden.
Celtic Park is not the only place which hungers for Champions League membership. It is now 13 years since a Swedish side – Helsingborgs – graced Europe’s elite by reaching the group stage and the Allsvenskan is irked by the fact that its neighbours in Norway and Denmark have enjoyed that privilege while the Swedes have their noses pressed against the window.
Lustig helped Celtic to end Helsingborgs’ dream a year ago in the play-off and if the man from Umea in northern Sweden was forgiven by his compatriots a few months later when he scored in their remarkable 4-4 World Cup qualifying draw with Germany, Lustig knows that denying Elfsborg would heighten the notion that he is a serial killer of Swedish football dreams. Although Lustig was proud of Malmo’s 7-0 Europa League thrashing of Hibernian last Thursday, he was not at Easter Road to cheer on his compatriots. Instead, the 26-year-old opted to go to Perth to watch his old team, Rosenborg, being knocked out by St Johnstone. Lustig spent three years at the Norwegian side before Neil Lennon recruited him in January 2012.
“When I was with Rosenborg, we played two Swedish teams and now twice with Celtic, so something keeps pulling me back,” smiles the right-back. “Every time, we’ve gone through, so that’s good. It’s special for me to play Swedish teams. To go back and play against players you know is good, but I would rather play other teams than knock a Swedish team out.”
Malmo’s coach, Rikard Norling, insisted after his side’s humiliation of Hibernian that Swedish and Scottish football are on a par, with Celtic capable of greater things than any club in either country. However, the Easter Road demolition ought to serve as a warning to Celtic if they feel progress is guaranteed simply because Lennon’s team eliminated Helsingborgs.
“Both Elfsborg and Malmo play football on the deck,” said Lustig. “The top five teams in the Allenskvan would probably be top teams here as well, but I think at Celtic we have a better squad than most of the Swedish teams.”
Lustig has two connections to Elfsborg, whose title triumph last season was a source of deep civic pride for the small city of Boras – whose 66,000 population could almost squeeze into Celtic Park – in the west of Sweden. Manager Jorgen Lennartsson was Lustig’s coach for Sweden’s under-21 side, while club icon Anders Svensson is a colleague in the national team.
Svensson once played for Gordon Strachan at Southampton and is best known for his stunning free-kick against Argentina in the 2002 World Cup. At 37, the midfielder is enjoying an Indian summer with the club he rejoined on his return from England and should win his 142nd cap for Sweden next month when he and Lustig face Norway.
“I know Anders really well,” said Lustig. “I have played with him in the national team for three years. He is going to break the record (143 held by goalkeeper Thomas Ravelli) for most national games for Sweden, so he is a big player. I spoke to him last week. Elfsborg think the games against Celtic will be good, but they were not happy with the draw.
“They thought Celtic and Basel were the two toughest teams. So it’s big for them to play at Celtic Park. Elfsborg have an artificial pitch. Their record there is unbelievable, but they struggle away so hopefully we can get a result on Wednesday. ”
Lennartsson was assistant manager at Helsingborgs when they reached the group stage of the Champions League stage in 2000-01. “Jorgen was my coach for a couple of years with the Sweden under-21s and is a really good coach,” declares Lustig. “He was in Norway at Stabaek and I faced him there with Rosenborg. He’s crazy about football. He watches 20 games a week. He does not like to take risks, so I think they will sit back a bit at Celtic Park.”
Lustig knows only too well that Scandinavian sides profit from being in mid-season right now, while Scottish football is just getting back to work.
“We struggled a little at home to HJK Helsinki last year and it was the same at Helsingborgs,” admitted the defender. “Players from Scandinavian leagues are peaking now. St Johnstone did well to knock Rosenborg out, but I think Rosenborg were the better team. However, it was good to go to Perth and see some old faces from my time in Norway.”
While Celtic have been earning plaudits – and hard cash – for spotting Victor Wanyama and Gary Hooper and then selling them to England for a £14 million profit, Lennon believes the recruitment of Lustig for nothing was superb business.
“Mikael is a fantastic player,” said the Celtic manager.”Sevilla enquired about him last year. He’s very consistent, excellent in the air, good on the ball, gets forward well. He has been a brilliant acquisition and is very under-rated.”
Lennon will be happy for Lustig to earn greater exposure by conjuring up another opening goal on Wednesday, as he did in the first leg with Cliftonville. The dark-haired Swede is Celtic’s Nordic noir specialist hoping to repeat last season’s Champions League drama.

Tyrants conduct monologues above a million solitudes.

The Huns got fined by UEFA on the 29th April, 2011. There is much relief that UEFA did not force Rangers to play future European ties behind closed doors.
There is much wringing of hands in a south side boardroom and the call for deflection goes out. According to CharlotteFakovers Jack answers the call. In a publish e-mail (the origonal of which has been removed but is now replaced with a .jpeg the text of which can be read Here with Rob’s video
) Charlotte reveals that on the 12th May, 2011, Jack informs that McKerron Hay have been retained to ‘place’ stories of a negative kind about opposing teams whilst keeping Rangers at a distance.
In another Charlotte revelation she publishes an invoice from Jack to Rangers in which on the 16th May, 2011, it becomes apparent that Media House on behalf of their client felt the need to advise the BBC on how to define pro-IRA songs.
Also, again on behalf of their client. Media house on the 18th May, 2011, they were briefing the Herald on a Celtic issue(?)
On the 20th May, 2011, Rob McLean launched into his now infamous and jaw-dropping, anti-Celtic Supporter diatribe. Which to date has never been explained as to why.
Who was Media House advising at the BBC regards the definition of pro-IRA songs. What qualifies Media House to publicly define pro-IRA songs? What did the BBC do with this advice? Were the public insidiously lied to on the afternoon of 20th, May, 2011, and did the BBC knowingly provide the platform to defame a club and its supporters?
The BBC a public national broadcaster with a Royal Charter.
BBC Mission and values
Our mission, vision, and values inform the work of the BBC and are how we promote our public purposes.
The public purposes are set out by the Royal Charter and Agreement, the constitutional basis for the BBC.
Our mission
To enrich people’s lives with programmes and services that inform, educate and entertain.
Our vision
To be the most creative organisation in the world.
Our values
Trust is the foundation of the BBC: we are independent, impartial and honest.
Audiences are at the heart of everything we do.
We take pride in delivering quality and value for money.
Creativity is the lifeblood of our organisation.
We respect each other and celebrate our diversity so that everyone can give their best.
We are one BBC: great things happen when we work together.
The Royal Charter and Agreement also sets out six public purposes for the BBC.
The BBC exists to serve the public, and its mission is to inform, educate and entertain. The BBC Trust is the governing body of the BBC, and we make sure the BBC delivers that mission.
Led by the Chairman Lord Patten, and consisting of 12 Trustees, the Trust is the guardian of licence fee revenue and of the public interest in the BBC.
The Trust is separate from the Executive Board which is led by the Director-General. The Executive Board is responsible for the operational delivery of BBC services and the direction of BBC editorial and creative output in line with the framework set by the Trust.
Our job is to get the best out of the BBC for licence fee payers.
We set the strategic objectives for the BBC. We have challenged the BBC to:
• increase the distinctiveness and quality of output;
• improve the value for money provided to licence fee payers;
• set new standards of openness and transparency; and
• do more to serve all audiences.
We issue a service licence to every BBC service stating what we expect it to deliver and how much it can spend. We set the BBC’s editorial guidelines and protect the BBC’s independence. We monitor performance to ensure that the BBC provides value for money while staying true to its public purposes.
Impartiality
Ensuring the impartiality of the BBC is a key priority for the Trust; it is essential to its independence that the BBC retains the public’s trust as an impartial purveyor of news and programming.
The BBC is required to deliver duly impartial news by the Royal Charter and Agreement and to treat controversial subjects with due impartiality. The Trust is committed to making sure that the BBC fulfils this obligation. One of the ways the Trust does so, is by commissioning reviews of specific subject areas.
The BBC’s Editorial Guidelines 2010
People expect the highest standards from the BBC and the BBC Trust is here to get the best out of the BBC for the public. One of the ways we do this is by approving the BBC Editorial Guidelines every five years.
The Editorial Guidelines set out the standards required of people making programmes and other content for the BBC. They exist to guide content producers in making considered editorial decisions that balance freedom of expression with their responsibilities to the audience, contributors and others.
The Guidelines cover these responsibilities in great detail including:
the need to be duly accurate and impartial and to avoid causing audiences unnecessary offence
the importance of treating people fairly and respecting their privacy when making and broadcasting programmes
how programme makers should deal with children and young people who contribute to programmes
how the BBC should cover politics and public policy
ensuring that votes and competitions are run fairly
and the need for programme makers to be mindful of potential conflicts of interest.

Remind me.
You’re one of the individuals on here who has such a sound grasp of matters Celtic that you think the Club is in better fettle now than when we won the European Cup.
Frankly anyone purporting to be a Celtic fan who offers such an opinion should give themself a slap.
