CQN Open, Intensity required

CQN Golf Open 2016

The 12th annual CQN Open Golf Day will take place at Aberdour Golf Club in Fife on Friday 29 July. Our annual trip to Aberdour is always a fantastic day. Those who play golf (not me) enjoy the stunning Fife course, while we all participate in an evening’s entertainment and chat.

The day is always fully subscribed, so if you want to attend, please email Taggsybhoy at cqnopen2016@gmx.co.uk . Cost for the full day’s golf and evening meal is £80. There are a limited number of dinner and evening-only places available at a cost of £45.

We’ve raised tens of thousands of pounds for good causes far and wide over the previous 11 events, and enjoyed some great times. See you there.

Aberdeen’s visit to Fir Park on Saturday looked like a stiff test on paper before news broke that the Motherwell squad has been devastated by a virus, which has forced the club to cancel training this week. There’s little Celtic can do about that short of extending their lead to four points earlier tomorrow afternoon with their visit to Rugby Park.

Kilmarnock are marooned in the play-off position: 8 points from bottom, and five from Inverness and Hamilton above them. They’ve scored only once in their last four home games but have the curious claim to be unbeaten by Celtic this season.

We looked sloppy on our first trip to Rugby Park in the autumn and impotent when we faced them at Celtic Park. Kilmarnock would perhaps suggest they simply figured out how to frustrate us. They’re not alone with that belief.

I was concerned about last week’s game against Thistle and Kilmarnock tomorrow. Our next outing, in two weeks against Hearts, will take care of itself, the adrenaline will pump for that one, but we need to create our own intensity away to teams in the bottom half of the table.

We didn’t turn in a classic performance last week but, straight from the off, it was clear we were sharper than at any point since thumping Hamilton two months ago. A focus returned to the squad (as did a Commons and a Bitton). With the large uptake of tickets by Celtic fans I expect our edge to be evident from the start.

    When Sevco lose,I feel about 80 % of the pleasure I felt when Rangers lost.

     

    Goodnight all,

    My son has been hounding me to get him a ticket for the semi against the zombies, as I will be away at the time there was no chance I would get him one and I could have.

     

     

    I’ve had umpteen people that have not been to a game this season asking me if I could get them sorted.

     

     

    My mate that can source them has told me they’re gold dust and he is struggling to cover clients.

     

     

    That is the real picture, sometimes, I think myself and others on here become too secular to the real picture outside.

     

     

    The majority of Celtic supporters want a zombie to ridicule. Hopefully we will on the park as well as the stands.

    Ask the maestro what his testimonial was like, I was there but missed it with the fog, but still loved being there….. Paul McStay is and will always be my favourite player

     

     

    After the faith rovers cup final….. Easter road “youllneverwalkalonePaul” not the the GB standard but it’s the thought that counts

    I know they died, you know they died, pretty much everyone knows they died.

     

     

    I’m not prepared to stop supporting Celtic because ignorant, agenda driven bigots won’t accept that they died.

  5. Just caught the end of the game on the screen in the pub in St. Andrews. I might be a drinken disgrace, but I’m still laughing at the Huns! Hahahaha.

  6. I just love any entity out of the cess pit in govan to get pumped.Is that bad of me?

     

    I dont give a flying.The more pain and ridicule the better for the entitled ones.

    Watching them lose is almost as much fun as it used to be watching Rangers lose.

    You have excellent taste. Time in a Bottle has been my favourite song for 40 years.

     

     

    My 3 loves in my life are my wife, Celtic and Jim Croce.

     

     

    Narrow winner is Jim Croce on the grounds that he has given me no angst!

  9. Celtic right now are playing for a double.

     

    Back to back..

     

    I’m old enough to know how difficult this is.

     

    Massive diversions at play..

     

    Celtic fans can make all the difference…

     

    Let’s all unite and back our Manager..RD.

     

    Hail Hail and let the people sing…

    We have a once in a lifetime opportunity to address the SFA if we refuse to take it we only have ourselves to blame for what will come in the next few years.

    Would love to ask him mate but he’s still over your way

     

    i think but i would probably get all tongue tied just being

     

    near such a talent, i will get to the end of my days wondering

     

    what he would have been like in the lions team.

    Ronny and Johnnie were at the Sevco defeat tonight. At half time Chic had them both quaking in their boots at the quality of the mighty tribute acts display.

     

    What’s his FT story? Hahaha wee fud!

  13. I wonder how the newco following at Falkirk will compare to our numbers for a game which really matters at Kilmarnock tomorrow.

     

     

    Feels to me many of our lit would rather moan and whinge about grievances than see our team succeed.

     

     

    The simple desire to back their club seems like it is galvanising their following as our lot seek to self destruct or self harm to assist their quick route to the top in scottish football.

  14. The Real Sevco of Madrid, are a seriously flawed outfit.

     

     

    if we don’t are can’t expose just how weak they are in make-up come the 17th April, then…. say no more.

    We had a century to call out the SFA. In Berlin a wall was brought down. In South Africa Mandela was freed.

     

     

    In Scotland, a football club were permitted and sponsored and encouraged and supported to maintain a policy which promoted sectarianism.

     

     

    We did not speak.

    Some say never meet your heroes as they might disappoint, my 3 are Paul McStay, Neil Lennon & Tommy Burns……all Celtic stuff not just ability

     

     

    My father also mentioned McStay “might” have got a game with the lions, but I think he would have benched Ronny Simpson and played without a goalie !

  17. I was in seeing Tommy Gemmell this evening. In fact I have been into see him four or five times this week.

     

     

    He now has Sky, BT and so on but struggles with the controls. He’d been watching Sky Sports News all day. I will pop in in the morning to put his TV on the channel for the Celtic game.

     

     

    I’m looking for some of our older CQNers to visit Tommy. He’s great company. Tonight we talked about Charlie Gallagher who Tommy reckoned was the best passer of a ball although not the best worker.

     

     

    If you have a wee bit of time on your hands and can get to Dunblane let me know and you can help a Lion. You’ll love it.

    I’m talking about the cheating, not Rangers dying.

     

    We need to remove the board, or people will walk away.

    I get what your saying doesn’t mean we have to accept it for evermore .

    Pity they didn’t back their old club enough to stop them getting liquidated.

    Canny wait to get into Rugby Park tomorrow to scream, shout, sing and support our Bonny Bhoys to 5 in a row.

     

    Hail Hail
