We finish with a bit of fun, looking at the Saints and Sinners of Scottish football, including some of the main characters involved in football’s current woes, as well as one or two main characters from the champions.
12 members of the Tyneside No 1 Celtic Supporters Club will walk the West Highland Way from 31th July ro raise vital funds for MacMillan Cancer Support, HCPT and Celtic Charity Fund. The guys from Tyneside are among the most regular contributors to good causes in the name of Celtic and deserve your support. Please visit their Everyclick page.

Evening bhoys, hot and hun free, just the way it should be.
Sad news about Joe McBride
RIP

So no matter what the clubs say it’s div1 for the huns.
Bring it on I say, I can see a major revolt if that happens.
its ridiculous that the whole situation boils down to a handful of SFL clubs to resolve
doncaster and regan have no future, dead men walking and take campbell with you
“Impeach McCrummoch”
Is anyone aware if there is a best person to contact at cp to organise taking a disabled person to a game?
Thinking about the inter game specifically.
Thanks in advance, have to log off so will pick up any replies later.
Before the vote to shoehorn Sevco into the SPL we had all sorts of threats emanating from the SPL/SFA. The clubs themselves did the right thing.
I think this will happen again, the chairmen of all clubs are being under estimated. They won’t be bullied or badgered.
They will know their fans may well reacte badly to their clubs if they do.
And remember if Stenhousemuir, or any club of that size, loose 40-50 season ticket holders, this will have a huge effect on that club.

I think we know this has been played out behind closed doors.Sevco keep protesting just put us in Div 3,SFA/SPL/SFL say no you are going in to Div 1/SPL 2.Sevco will say we will only go if there are no sanctions,with possibly only the Transfer Embargo still standing.Cue Sevco winning SFL 1/SPL 2 and hey presto debt free.You couldn’t make this up.Lawyers and Council for Arbitration in Sport, at the ready Celtic.

I imagine we will read a similar story involving a club called ‘rangers’ in years to come…
The New York Cosmos, such as they
are, are back. The club will play in the
North American Soccer League, such as
it is. The rest is merely another strange
chapter in the storied and tortured
history of soccer in the United States.
On Thursday, the N.A.S.L., which is now
a Division 2 league in North America,
approved the entry of the Cosmos to
the league for the 2013 season. The
club, which has not been a bona fide
team in more than 30 years, will play its
matches at Hofstra University in
Hempstead, N.Y. The back-to-the-
future threads are inescapable because
the latter-day Cosmos once also called
Hofstra home, long before the team
ended up in Giants Stadium in East
Rutherford, N.J., playing to packed
houses before it all came crumbling
down after the 1984 season.
The team stayed alive in the heart and
mind of G. Peppe Pinton, who sold the
rights — lock, stock and trophy case —
to a group led by the English
businessman Paul Kemsley. Kemsley
relaunched the “brand” to great fanfare
a couple of years ago, but the effort
turned out to be little more about
marketing and selling shirts. (In fact, the
entire Cosmos gear inventory made by
Umbro was dumped for pennies on the
dollar to an off-price retailer.)
After Kemsley departed, the club fell
under the auspices of Sela Sports,
which is based in Saudi Arabia. The
“international partnership,” as it is
described in a news release, is led by
Seamus O’Brien, who is based in
Singapore.
“We are delighted to return to our
historic home with the N.A.S.L. and
bring the New York Cosmos back to the
playing field,” O’Brien said. “We are
committed to running the franchise with
the highest possible standards on and
off the field, and look forward to
putting together a competitive and
entertaining team our fans can be proud
of.”
It had long been thought that the
Cosmos would gain entry to Major
League Soccer, but those efforts have
obviously not come to fruition, at least
not yet. M.L.S. remains committed to
expansion and has said it would like to
place its 20th team in New York City,
though prospects of that happening
now seem less likely as the league
struggles to find a suitable location for
a new stadium.
“We are extremely proud to welcome
the New York Cosmos to the North
American Soccer League,” N.A.S.L.
Commissioner David Downs said in a
news release. “As we continue to
expand the league and help grow
professional soccer in the United
States, Canada and the Caribbean, the
Cosmos brand and their strong
ownership group are a perfect fit with
us. The history of the Cosmos and
soccer in the New York City area are
intertwined. Bringing the Cosmos into
the N.A.S.L. is a logical next step as we
embrace the heritage of our own past
and now reunite the Cosmos, Strikers,
Rowdies and several markets with ties
to the N.A.S.L.’s early days. Most
importantly, we look forward to the
Cosmos enhancing the quality of our
league both on and off the field.”
It is early and as yet there is no word
about how the team will be
constructed, expect that Giovanni
Savarese, a former star for the
MetroStars of M.L.S., will retain some
role with the Cosmos where he was
head of youth development. There was
also no indication of whether the newly
formed Cosmos will retain Eric Cantona,
Cobi Jones or the services of Pelé.

rumours of Fat Sally (who has been conspicous by his absence, turning up at an orange walk- is this true.
i mean the bit about the orange walk, not the bit about him being fat

Struan Marshall is Jonathan Woodgate’s agent
He also represents Robbie Keane, Steven Gerrard, Stewart Downing, Aiden McGeady, Jermain Defoe and a few more heavy hitters
He does very well for himself, as you have probably guessed looking at the above list
ooooffffttttt, i hope the lawyers like.

Apropos of nothing just watched the highlights of the 3-3 game at Kilmarnock on YouTube again.
Open to correction here but of all the things said during the first half and at half time here I don’t recall a single statement about how Scotland needed a strong Celtic and Rangers.
It was their 9 in a row , the souness and Murray years in microcosm – Celtic are pathetically poor and the mighty rangers will march on in triumph.
Irrespective of what else occurs never let the significance of this season be forgotten. The paranoid Internet bampots and the three or more generations of their forefathers were right.
Their “triumphs” of recent years were built on sand and the big wave has just washed in.
Just caught the end of the news on 5 live there and it mentioned something about trouble tonight in Ardoyne between Republicans and Loyalists.
Anyone know what was the problem was?

I agree
He could retire tomorrow very comfortably if he so wished, but in his own words:
“There is too much money to be made”
‘Greed is good’ was a phrase made for these guys
blantyretim-Met a guy in the Algarve around 1999,he was Woodgate’s dads best mate.Whilst at Leeds as a youngster then,he got capped for England,a clause in his contract kicked in.His basic went from £750 a week to £15,000 a week.I agree the contracts he has picked up for being a crock are unbelievable .

real radio reporting that even if the vote tomorrow says divsion 3 the sfl will over rule this a few days later and its divsion 1 for sevco
===========================================
Neil – If they really mean “the sfl will over-rule this” they are talking nonsense. Longmuir is not that daft. Should the SFL clubs clearly vote for Div3 or nothing that will be it as far as the SFL is concerned. The idea the SFL executive panel would countermand the clubs’ decision is absurd and if it was even attempted Longmuir would not feel his feet touch the ground!
– If they mean the SFA will over-rule this” then I have to admit I don’t know what power the SFA have to exercise this but Scottish Football fans simply wouldn’t stand for it and a campaign of non-attendance would arise. Strangely the reason for this has moved beyond RFCIA/IL & Sevco, they are now in the context of the big picture irrelevances.
The issue now is about respect. The SFA (& possibly SPL) will be seen (are seen?) as anti-fans. What is the point of having fans at all when the clearly articulated opinion of fans organisations & the clearly articulated opinion of the clubs those fans keep alive if they is ignored. It is a fight the SFA must know could only end in disaster – for them.
No, if the answer is Div3 for Sevco thats it and they all know it.
The pity is all this should have followed automatically weeks ago & everybody would be in a better place right now, even Sevco.
Anyone know what the leaked email is that AT is talking about?

Another facet of Joe’s play was out-jumping the rangersaswas centre half to nod the ball onto Bobby Lennox’s instep. The buzz-bomb didn’t even have to check his stride as the ball bulleted into the net.
Big Jock thought Joe was past his best after the injury but in his first game back Joe got a hat-trick away against the Morton. Yet another in a long line of players gone too soon.
Joe McBride was a phenomenon. Excellent players were to fill his position but Joe was sans pareil.

Yes. Mr Regan, not looking very clever… and a club chairman as well…
Another wonderful by product of the hun situation may be the end of MSM as we know it. With one or two exceptions I for one will not shed any tears.
Maybe Minty could get some of these soon to be defunct hacks a joab ?
Sorry , forgot they have been in his employ for many years.
This just keeps on giving !
I’m Neil Lennon (tamrabam)
The SFL clubs could of course vote to allow Sevco into SFL1. This will still stink but not as much as an organisation (SFL Exec or SFA) deliberately overturning a clear decision by member clubs.
So keep practicing the squeaming – just in case!
Officers injured in Ardoyne violence

A chairman of the SPL variety… wonder what the fans of his club will make of his go-between status … I’d be very surprised if they weren’t a bit annoyed…
Morris returns from the doctor and tells his wife that the Doctor has told him that he has only 24 hours to live.
Given the prognosis, Morris asks his wife for sex.
Naturally, she agrees, so they make love.
About 6 hours later, the husband goes to his wife and says, ‘Honey, you know I now have only 18 hours to live.
Could we please do it one more time?’
Of course, the wife agrees, and they do it again.
Later, as the man gets into bed, he looks at his watch and realizes that he now has only 8 hours left.
He touches his wife’s shoulder and asks, ‘Honey, please… just one more time before I die.’
She says, ‘Of course, Dear,’ and they make love for the third time.
After this session, the wife rolls over and falls asleep.
Morris, however, worried about his impending death,tosses and turns, until he’s down to 4 more hours.
He taps his wife, who rouses. ‘Honey, I have only 4 more hours….
do you think we could…’
At this point the wife sits up and says, ‘Listen Morris, enough is enough
I have to get up in the morning… you don’t.’
O.G.Rafferty,

“rumours of Fat Sally (who has been conspicous by his absence, turning up at an orange walk- is this true.”
No, it is not true.
All decent supporters including chairmen oppose the 666.
