  1. 4-2-3-1 seems to be the vogue formation just now. Come up with a system to beat it and you would win everyhing.

  2. How to save on those pesky heating bills.

     

     

    Spend some time working in your garden while it’s just above freezing point and your house will feel warm as toast afterwards.

    I’ve said on here before,as a five-year veteran of the site,that I am surprised by some of the posters who have gravitated from happyclapper to mineshafter in that time.

     

     

    If the club are intent on treating the fans as customers,they should be prepared for the backlash of customer dissatisfaction.

     

     

    Two years ago,Tesco had the world at its feet,and a loyal and subservient customer base. It took one botched Christmas where they were deliberately uncompetitive to ruin that.

     

     

    As Celtic fans,we don’t have the option of Morrisons or Asda. But an increasing number are voting with their absence and dissension.

     

     

    Your post explains why.

    Nothing grows at this time of year. Go to a nice warm pub instead.

    Yep – nothing grows but plenty has died.

     

     

    Lots of clearing up to do – trimming, sweeping etc.

     

     

    Nice warm pub does sound tempting – not many of them around.

    Midfield and upfront, not working, and it’s not just with commons missing.

     

     

    Stokes 3 year deal as a striker, who wants to play wide left ?

    Nae bother,bud. I can guess how much it must have hurt for you to be so critical.

     

     

    It hurts us all. It deserves to be said,it deserves to be acknowledged.

  11. jude2005 is Neil Lennon \o/ on

    It’s Thursday, heard 32 Bhoys had pulled out as soon as date was known

     

     

    Hail hail

  13. Interesting article Bobby. I will seek that book. Thanks.

     

    Jude, why is Jon Daly a Judas? He has no bearing on Celtic and would not enhance our team.

  14. Irish Times has extracts from Ronan O’Gara’s autobiography.

     

     

    Here’s what he said about that famous hands-in-the-pockets photo of meeting that well known Irish speaker – Liz II –

     

     

    ‘The Ireland squad had been invited to an official congratulations ceremony with Her Majesty in recognition of the Grand Slam. I wouldn’t have much knowledge about the royal family, though I admired Princess Diana.

     

     

    I met Prince William on Lions tours and after we beat Wales in Cardiff. He was approachable and friendly in the changing-rooms, and himself and Jessica got on well when they chatted. He told her that he hadn’t understood a word I’d said.

     

     

    I’ve sometimes been slagged by Munster and Irish mates that I look a little like him too. I’d also enjoyed a good ‘session’ in a group including Mike Tindall and Zara Phillips after an Ireland-England game in Dublin when we slipped out the side door of the Shelbourne and were driven to Krystle nightclub.

     

     

    ‘He nearly put my shoulder out of its socket with his high five’

     

     

    ‘I don’t think your form at the minute is good enough’

     

     

    ‘Not even Rala could get us talking. Not even the Pope could have mended things’

     

    That was the extent of my knowledge of the royal family.

     

     

    It was optional for players to attend the reception but as a senior player I felt I should do so. This involved a flight from Cork and a train, so it was a big commitment. If I didn’t like the Queen, or if I’d strong feelings about the monarchy, I wouldn’t have travelled to Belfast.

     

     

    We were in a private function for two and a half hours. We drank tea out of china, chatted with various people, and the atmosphere was very relaxed. We were advised about the protocol when meeting the Queen – how you stand and what you do.

     

    I can still picture the moments before meeting her. I had sweaty palms. I like to think I present myself well, so I put them in my pockets to keep them dry. That’s also a habit of mine.

     

    I was next in line to be introduced when an opportunistic photograph was taken a moment before I took my hands out of my pockets to greet her. If there is one thing I’d most like to clarify from my playing career, it is this incident. You don’t disrespect the Queen, and the way this image was presented to the world was appalling.

     

    I was portrayed as a difficult Corkman. I received supportive letters, from rabid republicans! I am a very proud Irishman and a Catholic but I am not a republican. I don’t have any strong political feelings either way; I am not politically aligned.

     

    Ninety per cent of the Ulster team are Protestant and many of them are my friends. But irrespective of how strongly you feel, be it the Queen or the Pope or anyone in a powerful position, and especially a lady, I don’t believe you should be rude or treat them discourteously.

     

     

    It is an amazing photo. Brian’s face suggests something is happening. It couldn’t have been staged any better. We’d been informed that it was a private function, in which case the photo was a breach of confidence.

     

    There were a few things that didn’t add up. Some people are so stupid for thinking it was a statement, that I was trying to insult the Queen.

     

    The fallout was disturbing, and I’m glad to have an opportunity to explain what truly happened. It bothered me, and I wouldn’t be bothered by much. I’m thick-skinned, but I’d like to think as time has passed people would appreciate that I am respectful. Critics can slate the arse off me all they want, but this was about manners and respect.

     

    This reflected on my upbringing, my parents, stuff that means something to me. I was described in the Irish Independent as a lout; Kevin Myers said it was “loutish behaviour”.

     

    I understand it was largely my own fault, but it was never my intention to offend anyone. I wish I had taken my hands out of my pockets sooner. I was in a relaxed environment and I was looking forward to meeting the Queen, but it turned into a bit of a horror show.’

    It was hard mate. I haven’t slated any individuals as it is a team game from Board, Manager, Coaches, Scouts and Players. However, if we could get the couple of players we have craved for long and weiry I am sure that we could get the best and more out of the majority of the personnel we have. The team by and large picks itself, no pressure on the personnel we have at present.

     

     

    Keep the Faith!

     

     

    Hail Hail!

  16. Much talk about absence of quality strikers and playmakers.

     

    This will continue until PL bites the bullet and accepts that these can only be acquired at a price.

     

    On the whole spending thing.

     

    A fellow called McNeill who knows a wee bit about football, when questioned on spending big money, opined that ‘while spending does not guarantee success, it does give you a better chance.

  17. CLUB CONFLICTED BY SECRETS. So ran the headline to an article about THEM in today’s Herald. What does it expect from an organisation riddled with pots and basins.

  18. GAA

    I think its becomeing more and more evident that eliments in the US government were behind the JFK assination.

  20. The blog is dying ffs the Kennedy assassination, wee Aiden,

     

    Ronan O’Gara, Jon fcuking Daly………..where’s Paul?, hangover,

     

    lying in the bed of some wench,if he keep’s this up he’ll end up

     

    with one of the daily’s……….please don’t take offence to my rant.

  21. Noticed earlier comments from Pep G regarding playing at CP…in Mail on Sunday (!) I think…

     

     

    More interesting are comments by Frank Ribberie (sp) regretting he’s never played at CP…heard so much about it… really keen to experience the atmosphere… thinks Celtic can finish second and meet BM in last 16….

     

     

    Come clean Frank… your just manoeuvring your dream move to the ‘Tic, can’t fool me naughty boy!

  22. IMO the CIA orchestrated the JFK assasination angered by his refusal to support wholeheartedly the Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba.

     

    That was a CIA operation and when it failed their were a lot of unhappy people.

     

     

    Bazzabhoy

     

     

    Your posts last evening confirm you are indeed a happy clapper !!

     

    Has none of my influence rubbed off on you ?(lol)

     

     

    Here that the Paul Larkin book launch last night was a roaring success .

     

    Looking forward to the 24th and the Edinburgh launch

     

     

    Have a strong feeling Derk will score Wednesday. How often does a returning player score ?

     

     

    Hail Hail

    Spot on mate, as usual. A mate of mine was a shift manager at Morrisons in Ayr. He told me that the area manager and shop manager operated a strictly no Tims policy. Don’t know if it’s still the same as he left. Asda, no for me and we have no chance of a Waitrose around here. Even less chance since that Micktt moved into town ;-)

  24. Holy mother , I had a weird dream last night (good ole codeine).it was an original game of football between two huge crowds kicking a pig’s bladder ball around only it was in a church (gorgeous ornate place), the teams were sevco versus cqn only they couldn’t play because Challs couldn’t get the paperwork together and we all laughed at them. Their fans then went mad.

  25. On the great striker debate.. how many out and out centre forwards do barca have ? Maybe we are buying players to emulate their blueprint ? Maybe pukki was bought to play to a system that may take a while to adapt to ? With balde as a plan B ?

  26. Robcfc11

     

     

    Maybe its the system that is at fault.

     

    There aint enough chances being created.
