I’m pleased to read Ronny Deila ask for patience with Nadir Ciftci, the player needs a bit of support right now. Had Nadir knocked a goal or two in against our Icelandic opponents, Stjarnan, he would have been in a different zone at the moment, but he missed a few chances – not uncommon among players newly arrived at a club, and has since found opportunities limited by a domestic suspension.
Dundee United started training after Celtic, so Nadir was behind the curve during those games against Stjarnan. Without a full 90 minutes in a month, he will still have ground to make up when we resume after the international break, but he’ll hopefully feel the benefit of the work he’s put in on the training field in recent weeks.
Remember the Jock Stein Charity Match, which takes place at East End Park, Dunfermline on Sunday, kick-off 2pm. There’s a host of former players are playing, including Tom Boyd, Chris Sutton, Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink, Neil Lennon and Stiliyan Petrov, while several from the Hollywood set are also playing, including James McAvoy, Martin Compston and Gianni Capaldi.
Funds from the event go to the Celtic and Dunfermline Foundations. You can pay at the gate to mark the 30th anniversary of Jock’s passing. There’s going to be a lot of memories on that field.
Three years after football fans in Scotland became experts in insolvency law, we now have to become familiar with Serious Organised Crime (I had to look up what it was today). The Scottish Government suggest it involves “drugs, human trafficking and fraud”.
Fraud is one of the small number of crimes where a life imprisonment sentence can be imposed on someone convicted of the crime in Scotland (it carries a maximum of 10 years in England). Even if you were 100% innocent of all charges and the possibility of contamination from dubious characters, the sheer scale of the matters in hand would be an enormous worry.
My hunch is that conspiracies and criminal plans to subvert information are difficult to maintain under the weight of these charges.
I’ve been looking all morning but cannot find what I’m searching for. Does anyone know of an enterprise which operates in the shadow of a Serious Organised Crime investigation which has been able to raise money which didn’t come from the proceeds of Serious Organised Crime?
I’m sure the audit will be just fine.

Interesting stuff from Phil tonight.
Ashley preparing to call in his loan?
This whole situation has cluster**** written all over it.
BRTH
Do we reckon the Herald are being circumspect or just inaccurate when they write the last two lines in that article?
“Whyte bought the club for £1 for Sir David Murray in May 2011 but by the summer of 2012 Green had taken charge at Ibrox club by purchasing Rangers’ assets and business after it went into administration.”
Apparently, Mr Green “took charge” after “administration”.
What a hoot-(smon)

That was an irresponsible post given BRT &H`s request.

Perhaps someone should delete the last 4 years of the internet then – all commentary relating to these individuals is still available – including on this site. My comment is insignificant in comparison, and I’m certain there will be much more written in the coming weeks and months that will be much worse. BTW – why were they taken through the front door of the court allowing a baying crowd to go nuts? Was it in the interests of a fair trial, aye…?
a very good evening to one and all…..the days seem to be getting brawer and brawer….smiley thing….

Does that mean we can go back to slagging the plc? 8))
RWE and others.
I have never seen a public warning like that in any case and make of it what you will. Though remember I have been out of legal practice for a decade and PF Ayr will be better equpped to comment on whether this is a first or not.
As I said last night the proceedings have two distinct legs as far as I can see but both are live with the first due to enter the next stage of the legal procedure very soon.
Proof that petitions aren’t a waste of time? It’s a start,at least.

Some good replies.
“is rolling about the living room floor with laughter allowed”
Nir Bitton scores 2nd of 3 Israeli goals so far against Andorra. With Rogic’s brace against Bangladesh, midfield keeping their eye in for Sheep game.
Contempt of court my arse, the number of times the polis have stood in the dock during OBA trials and lied through their teeth with nothing done, personally I couldn’t give a monkeys if the accused walk on a technicality, there is still a refusal by Scottish law enforcement to investigate the real culprits.
I called out serious organised crime a long time ago on here and to date I still don’t see the real culprits being investigated, whitewash where foreigners are the fall guys as expected.
As for the never disturb your enemy shite, if nothing had been said by the Internet bampots even this fiasco would have never happened.
In the same way as every conspiracy of silence ensures nothing is done and the perpetrators will remain above the law because the establishment are satisfied with the sacrificial clowns who thought they were in with the big boys.
As someone previously mentioned a senior Scottish judge refused to pay attention to anything that happened in the public domain, the big question is WHY ? And should said judge be under investigation too ?

If your wanting to wine and dine the lovely lady, I’d recommend the number 7.
The food is top class as are the staff.
Good padded seats as well. HH
The Rangers obsessed are back.
Meanwhile our own club downsizes.
Tragic Old Firm crap.
Moravcik,
That list only contains rangers staff, during the BBC documentary there was a section under the heading that included non-rangers staff allusions were that SFA employees with no supposed connection to Rangers were on the list.
Captain Beefheart – get herself a season ticket for the public gallery, you know it makes sense.
Captain Beefheart on 3rd September 2015 8:23 pm
Eh?
I know some on here place a lot of faith in the Scottish Legal System (remember being told on CQN that we could trust LNS and should let him get on with things?), but the truth is that for the last 10 years or so (probably longer, but we didn’t have internet bampots showing it for it was) it has been a joke.
For COPFS to suddenly think they will control social media and the internet is now going beyond a joke. Do they really think that all who post are within their jurisdiction?
The replies to their tweet shows the contempt in which they are held.
I’ve also heard a rumour (though not confirmed) that ticketus hold the rights to the court cases.
Andrew Kerins
Did you get my email from Paul67?
Having purchased and downloaded John Fallon Keeping in Paradise book, it has some great stories in it and thouraly recommend it, not only was John a great servant to Celtic, but also a big Supporter of the club all his days.

Are we all right to talk about Aberdeen? How about Heart? Is it just the huns that are off the agenda?
Any Cqnrs going to the evening doo for the Jock Stein Memorial on Sunday?
Beefheart – yeah. Imagine people being interested in the biggest scandal in Scottish football ever. Some people……
Anyone watching the Wales game ? Think the goal they had disallowed was even worse than ours in Malmo. Given the amount of times they’ve been robbed of qualification I really hope they get a result tonight.

Don’t be fooled.
Number 7,great favourite of his from the Chinese in Castlemilk.
RobertTressell, one of the biggest scandals to hit football, at least until the FIFA shambles.
But that’s live too isn’t it?
thankyou Sips,,,,and The Bold Jinky ,,,hahahaha braw …..No 7 sounds braw …..

If Phil Mac is correct and Big Mike is about to call in his loan and the securities that mob will go into absolute meltdown. I think they have conveniently erased Bike Mike from memory.

I heard a wee whisper you have a gorgeous blonde on your arm of late, you olde fox :))
I have the Sky sports app on my phone . Just looking at it there to catch up on the latest Euro scores involving Celtic players , noticed that Nir had scored , clicked on his name and it has a pic of him getting sent off in one of our European games.
Another app deleted

You know me too well :)
Gents, on a Celtic blog, shouldn’t we get analysis about why we lost to Maribor, Legia and Malmo? Why we have a striker crisis?
Douglas Park’s timing is impeccable. Stepping down just ahead of the latest shenanigans.
“What are you saying skippy? There is no way he was tipped off”.

No, the analysis is finished. Time to move on and hope that lessons have been learned.
The window is shut. No point moaning about strikers. No crisis. The Griff will bang them in.
Calm down, Enjoy a week off whilst laughing at the huns.
