Copa America took a turn for the better for Celtic last night. Cameron Carter-Vickers’ second half appearance was not enough to prevent USA from losing to Panama. That result leaves both sides on three points going into the final group game. The USA face Uruguay (two wins from two) in their final game while Panama play Bolivia (two defeats from two).
The final group games take place on Tuesday, so Cameron could be back home to cast his vote on Thursday. Let’s hope.
Alistair Johnston’s Canada need a point against Chile on Sunday to progress to the quarter finals. Canada have the advantage as they got a better result against Peru but Chile are favourites to win. It would be good to see both defenders home soon.
Sead Haksabanovic is one of a procession of wingers who passed through Parkhead gates over the last decade without leaving much of an impression behind. At 25, he is still young enough to make a good career in the game, but as with all players, he needs a run of games. Hopefully he’ll get that at Malmo.

B2B-GHF – Was just listening to Biden on the radio – sounds like he’s going nowhere. They’re now talking about an escalation in efforts to get Trump locked up as this might be the best path to victory. As someone said earlier it’s like an episode of Spitting Image😂

INVERCLYDE’S Provost has offered an ‘unreserved apology’ after a column he penned about an upcoming Orange walk in Gourock sparked major controversy.
Remarks which councillor Drew McKenzie made in his Tele Provost column about the 3,000-strong march were described as ‘ill-judged’ by Inverclyde Council leader Stephen McCabe.
The ward two representative described the ‘gallous swagger’ of those participating in this Saturday’s procession and described the event as a ‘spectacle’.
An anti-sectarian group told national media outlets yesterday that the provost’s column used terms such as ‘Tim’ and ‘Proddy’ that would not ease community tensions.
The under-fire councillor has now apologised for the language used in the column and acknowledged that certain terms were ‘not at all appropriate’.
He told the Telegraph: “I was told many years ago by a well-respected, now former, councillor that when it comes to Orange Order marches to do nothing.
“Do not support, do not oppose, just let it happen. Good advice that I should have adhered to.
“To write my column on such an emotive subject in an attempt to be humorous was very much an error of judgement on my part.
“I would also acknowledge that my use of certain language, particularly in the vernacular, was not at all appropriate.
“I would therefore offer my unreserved apology to any that I have offended.”
David Scott, director of the anti-sectarian group Nil by Mouth, told national media outlets the organisation had been made aware of the article by people in Gourock and had contacted the provost to arrange a meeting.
He said: “We would like to discuss his motivation for writing in such a manner.
“Parades are a deeply emotional and often controversial issue, and it is paramount that those making decisions understand both the sensitivities and concerns which swirl around them.
“Language is crucial and articles like this bring nothing positive to the situation.”
The column came after Inverclyde Council’s general purposes board gave the go-ahead at a recent meeting.
The plan for the gathering, which will feature around 30 flute bands, attracted more than 40 public objections.
Inverclyde Council leader Stephen McCabe said: “I don’t believe the provost intended to cause offence to anyone or any group. He is not that type of person.
“He was I believe trying to use humour to explain the challenges faced by councillors on the General Purposes Board in coming to a decision on a highly contentious issue.
“Having spoken to the provost, he accepts that in hindsight the column was ill-judged, and he is sorry for any unintended offence he may have caused.”
In a country that has become so woke I honestly thought that article posted a few days ago was a complete joke/spoof.
It boggles my mind that it’s genuine
Compare and contrast the outcry to our manager’s “good girl” comment.
Clearly wokeness has its limit in Scotland.

I’m not a resident of Inverclyde, though I’ve been astonished at the utterings of some elected members.
Polite society has quite rightly recoiled in horror at the language used by Reform party members, discussing our PM and others.
Yet, we are going to see organised bigotry being encouraged, enabled and escorted in your part of the world.
The response has been a mix of hypocrisy and blind eyed avoidance.
Hope you are able to go about your normal business.

If the Democrats decide to swap horses, there is no chance she’ll be the one pushed forward.
*not a hope in hell as NOT only is she a women but also one of colour part Indian part Jamaican, the klan won’t buy that.
The main reason Trump is getting through to voters is because of his stance on immigration. It’s the most emotional topic on the agenda and Biden has not been able to deal with it.
*he has no stance other than lockin them up, the far right senators along with their democrat colleagues come up with plan that even the house liked includin the speaker who allegedly helped orchestrate January 6, only for tangerine heid, an unelected official, to shut it down based on he didnae want tae give Joe a victory, shades of reagan and the Iran hostages who were held for 444 days until he was sworn in and jimmy carter was on a plane back to Georgia
Now you can ask what has this to do with me who lives north of the 49th Parallel, well the far right conservatives are already operating up here with their shady tactics, but our consolation, should our PM decide NOT to run, is that his Vice VP Cynthia Freeland, completed a bachelor’s degree at Harvard University, studying Russian history and literature before earning a master’s degree in Slavonic studies from the University of Oxford, she worked as a journalist in Ukraine and eventually held editorial positions at the Financial Times, The Globe and Mail and Reuters, becoming managing director of the latter, is of paternal Ukrainian decent but her maternal granny from Glasgow was a war bride, Helen Caulfield of Donegal heritage.
Good evening all from the Brazen Head. I’m roaring drunk and you lot are absolute shower. So there now.

I saw this and also thought WTF?
i would love to know thoughts of slightly older readers.
I always thought of Billy Bremner as a wee hard bar steward but remember watching a video
of him and then thought hmmmm was also a baller creative midfielder. I am 58 so WC 74 was my only era of wee Billy and everyone thought too old(probably 29) but that video gave me impression he had much more to offer than a aggressive ball winner. Genuinely love to know older people thoughts.

Im fed up of all this insincere Apologies. by people who dont mean it. The only reason for the insincere apologies is because they are protecting their own position or they’ve been caught out.
As for all this woke terminology. Bollo@ks. Its farcial, as is the ab8ve post.

*he was as usual abused by some in the Scotland support as he was a well known Raploch Tim, ad in order tae pacify them he was sometimes played out of position at inside right.
He was always goin tae be a star but when he joined Leeds they were a second division side, his da forbid him tae join us due to the discrimination he would face so he went down to both Arsenal and Chelse for trials but didnae fancy livin in London so he joined Leeds with his Scottish schoolboys pal Tommy Henderson, both were soon homesick and Tommy was let go and joined us as an amateur before turning pro with the calvinists, but wee Billy wisnae granted the same privilege as his talent was well known within the club but eventually Don Revie agreed and contacted us, the price was 40 grand which Bob Kelly balked at for a Leeds reserve so it never happened, did we lose out, well we did have a young Bobby Murdoch so I guess not.
As for being a good player well he is honoured by a commemorative statue outside the South East corner of Leeds United’s Elland Road.
Greenpinta,
Calm down, resist the urge to lash out, and consider how you would feel if one of your loved ones were to be part of the community which you just attempted to denigrate?
Suggest a season ticket boycott to get rid of the PLC…
That was before they planked £100 million…
And Honest Boaby Winkle would shyte his pants…
HBW bleating about “Hurting the club leaves us with no club!”
Before he would delete the post. 😂️

Blogger can you define what you mean by ‘woke’
Greenpinata,same question to your good self being asked for the 2nd time,
‘Woke’ is ??
Meaning,context etc.
Thanks Celts
HH
AT,et al.
The current meaning of woke is political correctness gone mad. It is soooo divisive and toxic to our minorities who need genuine support and understanding. It wants to shut down debate.
It is alienating its moderate supporters like myself and its weponisation of “you are with us or against us “mantra is counter productive in the extreme.
It is harming support for the issues it is meant to be highlighting and its use of terms like birthing parent instead of Mother is an insult to our female population who have fought long and hard for equality and now have genuine concerns.
Modern woke alienates our minorities.
It is so far away from its original origins.
If we can discuss the Orange Order, the Weather Cleese on toast , ” Moonlandings” then a diverse CQN who tackles lazy journalism should not be afraid to go there. In my opinion of course.
Good morning from an overcast North Staffs.
I’ve just woke up
Good morning all from Govanhill. It’s another fun Saturday!
Good morning from Bowness-On-Windermere, time to go home, well up to the Trossachs for another week 😀 of 🍺🍸
