    A minority in the Celtic support hate him and all the board members because they are “suits”

     

     

     

    Another sweeping statement from you . And you know the majority or is it the minority of CELTIC support.

    Packy Bonnar is a true Tim and a true Irishman. He has proved both on the football pitch and reached the heights as a player

     

     

    *IMHO he was a better keeper for the Republic than for us and that’s based on a penalty save at the WC.

  6. Packie Bonner was a good goalkeeper nothing more nothing less. Certainly not a Celtic legend and not a soup taker either. He knows the smsm script and is happy to toe the line.

    Packie played 650 something games for Celtic,

     

     

     

     

    he made about 30 good saves,

    I must have been in the bog when he made them :O(

  8. If Bonnar, Walker et al were not working for the hun press…………what would they do to earn a crust?

    He was a good reflex GK, kick outs and cross balls, well I was better than him at them …:)

     

    Keep the Faith!

     

    Hail Hail!

    Willdo!

     

     

    My lovely lady and I are celebrating 35 years married today! (Coral)

     

     

    I don’t know how she has managed to put up with me for so long!

     

     

    Champagne going down a treat!

  11. Wow imagine calling somebody a soup taker?

     

     

    Soup-taker (Ireland)

     

     

    a person who has sold out their beliefs, referring to the Great Famine of Ireland when some Catholics converted to a Protestant faith in order to gain access to a free meal.

    Congratulations – if she’s anything like Mrs Gene ( approaching 47 years married) it’s apathy.

     

    Enjoy

    Congratulations to you both, have a great night.

     

    We’ll be 27 years on 04th June God willing.

     

    Keep the Faith!

     

    Hail Hail!

    Paddy Bonner was utter Sh1te. I thought it when i was 8 and i still think it now. Spineless. Then in his professional career, and now, as a pundit. Boat-faced lick-spittle.

  15. LENNYBHOY on 5TH APRIL 2021 6:32 PM

     

     

    that was funny LB, keep us informed whats going on soon as you have a whisper.

    Just an update.

     

    I’m well. Not exactly thriving but well.

    Good to hear from you, I missed the shit, sorry shot posts :O)

    Fergus told me bluntly he wasn’t happy with his latest signing and his gripe centred on the uncertainty of what I would cost.

     

     

    My contract had expired at Bolton but unlike today’s system when players can just leave, at that time a tribunal set the fee if no agreement was reached.

     

     

    Celtic chanced their arm by offering a paltry pounds 200,000 whereas Bolton were equally ridiculous in their pounds 2million valuation. Fergus sensed the danger and was keen for me to go back to Bolton.

     

     

    ‘We gotta kinda weird situation here – unwilling selling club, unwilling buyer,’ he told me.

     

     

    At one of our many meetings Fergus again kept me waiting for at least an hour before I was called in by his secretary.

     

     

    I immediately offered him my hand and said: ‘Fergus, nice to see you again.’

     

     

    With that puzzled look I came to know so well he replied: ‘Sorry, who are you?’

     

     

    The colour drained from his face when I told him I was his new pounds 2m striker!

     

     

    From that point on he did everything possible to get out of the deal and even cast doubt on my fitness, insisting I go through another medical.

     

     

    I did that and when I was given the all-clear yet again he still wouldn’t accept me as a signed player.

     

     

    In desperation I put it to him one last time that I had signed all relevant forms, a contract of employment and had passed two medicals.

     

     

    Surely it was time to accept that and move on?

     

     

    My final remark was : ‘Fergus, I didn’t sign for you or for Lou Macari. I signed for Celtic. I’ve been here before and I know what’s expected. There’s really nothing you can do about it.’

     

     

    His reply left me totally speechless.

     

     

    McCann said:’Well, there is one thing.

     

     

    ‘Maybe I could give you some money and you could go away?’

     

     

    I sat inside Celtic Park with my brother and another of my advisors and couldn’t believe what I’d just heard.

     

     

    I was being offered money NOT to sign for Celtic.

     

     

    I refused and the deal was concluded shortly afterwards.

    Andy Walker”

     

     

    I don`t know what to make of that. Is it from a book by Andy Walker?

  19. SAINT STIVS on 5TH APRIL 2021 6:43 PM

     

    Thanks, thought you and VP would chuckle at that…:)

     

    Nothing more I have heard other than what is out there. The only question unanswered is will it be both Harkin and Hughes. I just can’t find out but in my opinion they would do different roles:

     

    I think a technical Director deals with the every day running of stuff but a DOF is all about the structures. It may also just come down to Howe saying this is who and what I want and Celtic bending. Harkin was house hunting up here but that’s before I posted about Hughes possibility before the MSM.

     

    We should not have too much longer to wait, don’t know if it will be tomorrow, could be but soon.

     

    Keep the Faith!

     

    Hail Hail!

    Or could just be that it is a bank holiday.
