Wee tale – not fitba related, sorry – from yesterday.
My 4 year old grandson (who invented my moniker for me) was asked to be the inn keeper in his nursery’s nativity play. His only line: “There’s no room in the inn”
Act 1, Scene 1
Joseph – Is there any room in the inn?
Grandson: Of course there is
Teacher: No, you have to say there’s no room
Grandson: Of course there is
Teacher: You have to say NO..There’s no room in the inn
Grandson: Of course there is, we can make room.
Didn’t get the part…So proud of him, the little Scaniel!
Morning from a dull West London, good night last night with some good Celts in the West London CSC despite the poor quality of the images from Celtic Park. Much appreciated all the same. I did have to endure the comedy gold of the highlights from their recent match v the Dortmund London Supporters club, which was blessed with a last minute equaliser from my own daft lhad Surprisingly the Germans won on penalties.
I’ve been a little out of touch on all things Res 12 of late but would appear based on chatter, which I’m only now catching up on that our board have somehow caused a stir by inaction or otherwise.
Can some kind soul point me in the right direction or summarise as to what has gone one.
Good to see Celtic pretty much control another game the first 5 mins apart when Thistle might with a little more precision scored one of their couple of chances in the game.
Good to see a team come and have a wee bit of a go, open the space and make a game of it increasing the entertainment level a notch from the chess matches we have played against Hamilton and Dundee more recently although I did enjoy both those encounters as well.
Once again we were not overly prolific in attack but that’ll resume again soon, hoopfully Ne’rdy assuming that bird Barbara does not take a dislike to the Eave’s of Ipox this coming weekend. Great goal from Sinclair into the bargain.
Thoroughly enjoyed it from the comfort of my bed free on TV.

Enjoyed the game last night,well done to Thistle for not parking the bus,the No 11 and the big guy up front was a handful,i will bet them away to Ross County on Saturday.I thought Henderson showed up well,and Gamboa was decent too.A few guys getting a rest for different reasons just now,hoping to peak again at Poundland next week.Given some of the moans i heard coming out the ground,it’s obvious most haven’t been regulars at CP for the last few seasons.
Rab was/is the dentist……it was his brother Arthur who ran the Belltrees. Think Rab got involved in the hotel again when it needed some attention. (insert euphemism here)
I was born above the Galatea. At that time (50’s) most Celtic supporters made their way there after the boat landed. Jimmy Bain and Snowy MacArthur were my first (bad) influences when it came to supporting the bhoys. I vividly remember the day I realised I was a Celtic supporter – it involves Jimmy, Snowy and the Galatea.
I was standing at the top of the Watergate, just across from our home in Castle Street waiting for the fans to disembark and make their way to the pub after a certain game at Hampden in the Sun. What was the score, Mister, I asked Jimmy/Snowy/Whoever (No radios,transistors in those days). 7-1 came the raucous reply. Couldn’t be anything else but a Celtic fan after that.

I caught the second half on Celtic TV last night (the picture was spot on in Dennistoun).
Wasn’t the best game I’ve seen this season, but we did well against a determined Thistle side who caused us a few problems. However, consider the following to line-ups; the first was the team from last night and the second is what most would consider our strongest 11:
There may be debate around Dembele or Griffiths but Team 1 has only 6 of the strongest line-up of Team 2 in it. Saturday’s team against Dundee only had 5 of the strongest line-up: Gordon, Sviatchenko, Simunovic, Armstrong and Rogic.
So with only 5 or 6 of our regular starters we should expect some disjointed play but we are still picking up wins and points. We have also been able to assess Gamboa, Miller, McGregor, Henderson and Christie as starters in these games and shows our strength in depth; with half a starting 11 out, we still pick up 6 points!
We should be at full strength (minus KT) for Ross County and Sevco so another 6 points beckon! Then we have a break. 44 games between July and December is an average of more than 8 games a month so the players will need a break.
Won 16 of 17 games in the league with a +34 goal difference; first cup won; and progress in Europe. How can anyone be disgruntled (on the playing side)?

If Joseph has a problem with getting digs tell him to try the TRFC inn across the city.
Plenty room, though the roof is a bit leaky.

Still a good going club on BUTE based in the Galatea.
I know Rab Lambert well, if it’s the Dentist your talking about.
