Starting with a blank sheet of paper and a player found guilty of biting an opponent, I’d struggle to justify a punishment less than 6 games. It’s by no means the worst thing that happens on a football field, or the most dangerous, but it’s primitive, unhygienic and poses health risks.
Few of us have prior knowledge of Nadir Ciftci, so there’s little point in looking online for character references. The player was charged with biting an opponent. He denied the allegation but was found guilty by an SFA disciplinary panel yesterday. I’ve seen photos of Jim McAlister’s bite-sized leg wound and have no interest in hearing mitigating comment about what happened during the Dundee derby.
Despite this, Nadir is having a good month. He signed for Celtic, made his debut and potentially has five Champions League qualifiers to play between now and his domestic suspension concluding at the end of August (yes, six league games in August). If he’s a clever guy, he’ll force his way into the manager’s plans for those five games and never look back. If not, he’ll find his card marked, like a Dundonian leg.

Morning all.
Grey but quiet, cool and dry (at the moment) down here. Our “summer” has become a standing joke, even on the TV and radio, never mind among the public. Must be the worst on record.
Let’s hope the Celtic give all our spirits a wee lift this evening.

Morning bhoys,
Another warm and uncomfortable commute into the rat race, but given I handed in my resignation on Monday and will be leaving London in September I shouldn’t complain.
I really hope Cifci can get a goal tonight as he needs to get the support onside early since he will be a forgotten man for the first few games of the season.
Stjarnan’s ground looks…interesting…
Reminds me of Dumbarton’s ground.
Mon the hoops
Get yer mortgage on 3 or more dawdle :)
I’m going for 3-0 tonight.
For Celtic, naturally.
HH!!

I’m moving marginally further north to Suffolk (best find a good pair of wellies and a Barbour jacket pronto). If I continue with this pattern of movement I should be back home on about 20 years though…
What will CQN be like in 20 years???
Davidopoulos
I have a theory that within a decade youngsters will have their mobiles as implants. Within two decades we’ll be able to ‘think and click’ to activate such devices.
So basically yer napped
So basically yer napper will be full of cqn!

They’re trialling inserted chips (not the salt n sass variety!) in Scandinavia to unlock the office entrance, get permissions to use the printer etc. I’ll be the old fogie sitting holding a phone in his hand. To his ear!!!

The result was magnificent!!

Can we get a Roy Croppie bot that hogs the blog on the night shift?
That picture of the Love street Hearts breakers league winning side underlines the talent we had that probably never fulfilled its potential as a team.
McLeod, McClair, McStay, Bonner, Burns, Judas, Provan, Aitken, McGrain. But for a centre half and another midfielder we could have done well with that team had they stayed together. Danny McGrain was in his latter years and Aitken was never the most technical player. David Provans illness robbed us of a great player but the others went on to great things ( one exception).
How often do you sell players to Manchester United and Dortmund?
Anyway that was one of my greatest days on earth. Bar Pat Bonner the rest must almost fulfill the 30 mile radius of Celtic park criteria.
Is Izzy injured? I definitely saw pictures of him travelling with the squad.

Been catching up with some of the blog and The Clumpany caught my eye with his story about the mince in the evening paper about andy halliday and the guff he spewed out.
Seems as though the bold andy is delighted his mum decided against calling him after Mark Hately cause he dislikes the name Mark.
Anyone know what his managers first name is? ?.
Seems like a bright boy eh :-)
