Brendan Rodgers would be happy to have given pretty much his entire first team squad a run-out yesterday. I’d expect a similar usage of the squad in Ljubljana on Wednesday but Saturday’s game against Maribor.
There’s seldom anything more than fitness to take from these games but when a young player scored what proves to be a winner, it’s likely to matter more. Ryan Christie looked stressed at the end of last season when five Celtic players scored before he – when playing as striker – got on the scoresheet. Yesterday’s win against Sturm Graz will count for Ryan.
So Bayer Leverkusen are after Efe Ambrose. Not surprised at that one. Surprise isn’t an appropriate word, not at all. Everyone just look at your shoes, don’t make eye contact, poker faces, please.

Yip, funny that, but all the financial experts on here know that as well, just disny suit their agenda :-)
To be beholden to banksters is worse that the banksters themselvs imo.

I’m hoping for a late entry into the Tory leadership race. Stu and Neil can job share to save us all from ourselves. These guys are the real deal. The most renown experts in Armageddon and Armageddon avoiding policies are defo the guys to save everything from meltdown.

Anyone know when tickets go on sale for the Wolsburg game? Desperate for 2.
Thanks in advance.

DUMBHOY, 9:20 PM
I don’t know about being caught.
How he acquired the information was problematic for media outlets at many levels.
I know that very quickly Whyte, being the opportunist that he is, saw that he could turn losing this information to his advantage. How we got from Whyte to what John James claims, I don’t know
The guy has, consistently, for years given us good information on many aspects of the game in Scotland, and still some doubt him and give him a hard time.
He is a journalist not a clairvoyant, when he gets information he will write it into an article, of course his sources will come and go. They will also feed duff info if it suits the agenda for them. He does however keep coming back with good, inside information.
But he is the best source on information there is.
The John James site was years away when Phil started digging into this story on Ibrox, but hey, don’t let the facts cloud the agenda Matts.

If only we could all live in a cave I’m sure we could hide until all this Armageddon has passed, then emerge into the brave new dawn of hope and tranquility. I think that’s about as logical as the Armageddonists visions :-)
HH
Malorbhoy, Thanks for the info J donations made, see you soon,how is EDB? H H Hebcelt
Dallas.
Thanks for namecheck earlier.
I haven’t met up with The Killie Hippo for a few years now. Obviously I’ve seen him on T.V and in the press as he tries to get shot of Michael Johnson.
He’s a great guy but,sadly, life sometimes gets in the way and you start to lose touch. Have you met up with him recently?
Before you kindly ask, I’m not back at work yet. I’ve not been on the blog, as after the last time when I said I hadn’t had any attacks,bang I had one the next day. Jinxed myself. I then had a horrible couple of weeks. However, once again I’m at the stage of no recent attacks. I’m meeting with the big boss tomorrow, he was out to see me last week and although there is a formal process to follow, he has been very helpful to me. So fingers crossed, no more attacks, no more jinxing myself and I can get back to work soon. It’s been a long time coming.
I hope everything is good with you and your loved ones.

I think there were many sources chasing him to either shut him up or keep him going. Someone dobbed (sic) him in and the polis were defo involved at one point.
JJ posits that it was King that got to him 1st and then took control of the data for £25k, re-posting as Fakeovers at that point. I have no info either way but it wouldn’t surprise me if King then dobbed him in…

Dumbhoy
One of the brit couples here are positivley crapping themselfs, I know they go back to britland to sign on every few months, on the sick, their income has diminished by 20% in a week or so, feckin delighted I am, I wouldn’t dob them in, but I have always known that they would get theirs someday.
They are having their armagedon and their cave isny helping them :-)
HH
I see filming started for still game today, could that be why the blog is quiet?
Atleast the makeup department will be just as quiet :)
Dallas.
I should clarify, no recent attacks is a week ago but that’s brilliant.
Had a laugh with my pal on Saturday night.
He was texting during football. Having a few beers etc.
I was sitting alone like Johnny no mates, everyone else was out, with a cup of black tea and a gluten free flap jack.
You can imagine his response when I said do you want to come over to watch the second half.
Incidentally, I don’t have to be gluten free, I just feel a bit safer when I eat something that is.
DOC…
You can throw a pie to me in 411 now :)
ERNIE LYNCH @ 9:30,
You are correct, it is a BBC Scotland programme…
Glenn Campbell presents a live political debate between some of the most senior figures in Scottish politics debating the key issues following the referendum result. After the UK voted to leave the EU, Scottish Government minister Fiona Hyslop MSP of the SNP, Adam Tomkins MSP of the Scottish Conservatives, Scottish Labour’s Jackie Baillie MSP and Tom Harris, leader of the official ‘Leave’ campaign in Scotland, answer questions from a live studio audience about what this means for the future of Scotland – for jobs and the economy, constitutional issues, Scotland’s place in Europe and the chances of a second independence referendum.
Now I haven’t watched it but the title and the framework of the debate seems Quite different from the way Mats Nilloc inaccurately described it.
If the debate was about Scotland’s future vis~a~vis the EU/UK of course the programme would seem relevant.
Seems it was Mats Nilloc who was promoting the specious nonsensical argument…
CQN deserves better…
Hail Hail
Sipsini, ha, too high for me, down in 108 now, so still lower stand, my throwing arm isn’t that good.
I thought you young guys would go for the standing area:-)

The EU country with the most citizens overseas in other EU countries is… (drumroll) … UK so any arrangement involving repatriation sees more than 5m people in the UK equation. Suspect a goodly portion are just down the road from you…

Breaking my own wee sabbatical
Just to wish my nephew Kevin ( who does look in) and his partner Ola, In Toronto
All the very very best on the birth of your badly girl – Emma
Envisage a wee party coming your way in the Irish Club Timhorton :-)))
Interesting tweet ???
Celtic rejected the £6m offer for Bitton, they didn’t even entertain that figure apparently, told they’re asking for £10m but settle for £8m
Bumbhoy
The costa is hoachin with them, thankfully see very little of them, not my cup of T so to speak.
I might just hibernate till it’s over.
HH
Jimmynotpaul, I’m sorry to hear that you suffered another attack, it sounds a real horrible condition.
Thankfully your big boss seems quite understanding but there have been a few instances where I work where staff have been shown a good level of understanding initially then they are nipped away at by management and employee services (what a joke that title is).
I hope you are keeping better for longer periods now .
The hippo is in my wife’s facebook and she messages him occasionally.
He comes up to the toon now again to meet Melli, JC and the boy Kane. Big Anderson also meets up with them now and again.
Ive only seen Sandy once since he left unfortunately but still hold him in high esteem.
I hope he and the Killie trust get shot of Johnston eventually. He is probably the most loathed guy in Kilmarnock.
If you are going back to work at Atlantic Quay, a good tim from my place is moving there next week.
Good news CowieBhoy, congratulations to them both, and welcome to Emma.
Oh Dear, I canny even blame predictive text :-)
So sorry bout that, I blame the subconcious, the tele is on in the other room and they were talking about something similar
HH
DOC…
Above the singing now, don’t work Sundays anymore due to a wee rat subcontracting all our work.
Reckon I could reach you with a pie from up there.
Good to see you backing Phil. HH
TET
hahahahahahaha…
Thinking about keeping the moniker but might fail moderation every post…
HH
Sipsini, that’s free food, so fire away:-)
And Phil deserves the backing, top journo.
COWIEBHOY…
Congratulations to Kevin and Ola on the birth of Emma. HH
Kip time.
Jimmynotpaul at 9.52,
Sorry I missed the above post while typing my reply to your earlier one.
Saturday’s tactical battle might have been a bit better for you once your pal came over.
Its good there are now so many gluten free products available. I cansee your point about eating gluten free food is a reassurance for you. In saying that, the gluten free stuff isnt cheap.
Its a pity its not supplementary benefit days and you could have got a diet addition for the extra cost.

I spoke to Edb last Saturday, his outlook and fight against his illness is remarkable, lm sure he would like to hear from you

Who is tweeting that ?

DOC @This page – I have nothing against PhilMac – as I said he, along with others, exposed and laid bare the Ibrox fiasco – just feel that he is ‘second to the ball’ nowadays.
God rest Paul McConville – he was always my ‘go to guy’ HH
The exiled Tim.
Very witty.
I blame the subconscious. That made me laugh.
Dallas.
As ever you are very kind.
As I’ve said before I’m grateful, that although there is no cure,that its not terminal. I just have to live my life very differently now. To tell the truth it’s not a lot of fun when your highlight of the weekend is a gluten free flap jack but that’s the hand I’ve been dealt and I have to remain positive and enjoy life as much as is possible. Sadly there are so many people much worse off than me.
Proudbhoy
Different era but the same soul as I watched “The Great Hunger: The Life and Songs of Shane MacGowan” yesterday. Sad to see The Pogues leader wasting his talent.
Well, nobody mentioned it’s 210 th anniversary :-)

If you are around,I hope you smile.
Matts, you tried to call him a stenographer, poorly done.
He is not second to the ball on this, he was reporting it in Nov. 2014, before the JJ site had begun, long before.
He is obviously connected in Shirebrook too, and has been first to break many stories in the lat few years.
No journalist can get all the scoops, but Phil gets far more than his share when it comes to Scottish football.
Dallas.
You’ve some memory.
Supp Ben diet additions
That’s certainly jogged the old memory.
There were so many different additions. Heating was another one.
As said…

I hope you are in good health.
If you dont mind me asking, were you proud of Poland’s achievement at the Euro’s or did you think you should have gone further in the tournament?
