There are parallels between Salzburg and Celtic. After an outstanding season Salzburg lost their coach, Roger Schmidt, in May to Bayer Leverkusen, appointing Adolf Hutter (commentators beware), who previously managed Austrian Bundesliga club Grodig and is largely unknown outside Austria.
Unlike Ronny Deila, Hutter has not tried to change Salzburg’s system, but the period of transformation has been blamed for Salzburg failing to overcome Malmo in the Champions League play-off round (Malmo taxed Juventus in Turin last night before two second half Tevez goals settled things). New instructions, new training techniques and, in some cases, new personnel present challenges.
Ronny has had a few false starts but the return of Scott Brown at the weekend, the return to form of Kris Commons, who will surely start, and the addition of Scepovic, Tonev and Wakaso to the squad give reason for confidence.

ruggygman, Izzy will definitely start ahead of Charlie, I can’t see Wakaso starting, when he didn’t get a run against Aberdeen. I expect Tonev to start but Wakaso could replace him depending how the game is going. Apart from those two, I would agree with the rest of your team.

Of cabbages–and kings–
And why the sea is boiling hot–
And whether pigs have wings.”

It would all depend on the rules and whether I wanted to be in the same club as the wife I divorced; hypothetically speaking of course.
I wonder how far down the scale Jimbo’s ‘Day of reckoning’ will reach. Will it be a bloodless, indiscrimative matinee production of the ‘night of the long knives’.
Is he really going to nationalise BP, even though Scotland does not own it? Is he really going to forcefully redistribute the private wealth of Scottish citizens? Are they really prepared to default on their debt obligations if the Bank of England say no way to currency sharing? Who is going to set the mortgage rates for Scottish home buyers? Will there be a different APR between cross border credit card users? Who will lend Scotland the money to research the feasibility and viability of these purported new 99 oil fields after they’ve ripped off BP and their private citizens and defaulted on their national debt?
In the interim who is going to keep feeding the lecie meter?

If you had to be a deep political thinker to cast a vote at any election, turn out would be around 2%.

Some sports journos telling us that Celtic will never asked to join the EPL if there is a YES vote.
Nonsense, I seem to remember Sky made great attempts to get a team from Dublin to join the English Premiership back in the Eighties .
=======================
Sky weren’t involved with the English Premiership until ’92.

Tims still referencing major media outlets such as ITV and the Daily a Mail.
Dearie me.
How quickly we suffer from temporary amnesia when the agenda of the editorial suits our beliefs and opinions.
Salzburg no easy game, but if ever there was a time to get and away result, this is it no matter what the bookies predict.
A better analogy: you and three friends form a partnership. That partnership takes out a corporate membership of a health club.
You leave the partnership.
Can you still use the health club?
Get that other vote in now, if you haven’t done so

You are presuming that the four members of the health club are equals and benefit accordingly from shared revenue. Sadly that is not the case. The person who left the health club would discover his membership payments, which he now keeps have made him unbelievably wealthy.
Before the huns and before the nazis.
In this part of the world I think it might have been the redcoats
Listening to Darling on TV just now. His position has changed dramatically and he is now offering a compromise as his message. Think he realises his campaign of fear and uncertainty has lost them so much ground, perhaps even the referendum.

Don’t think we are quite ready for an away Euro game and I would go with a more defensive line up than some I have seen here

So longer than 16 months, Spain says 5 years plus and it took Croatia a decade to gain EU membership.
So how long will it be before Scotland can join?
They were new applicants. You just don’t want to get it, do you?

Those offended by the reference to the Scottish Nazi Party should ask themselves what the Nazis claimed to be? – that right National Socialists!
I have posted before about a MSP who told a group of school kids in my hearing that she was proud to be a Nationalist and a Socialist!
To take the comparison even fuller – look at the yes campaign
Need a scapegoat – the bloody English
Need a conspiracy – Cameron phoning round his buddies in big business
Need an enemy – anyone not part of Team Scotland
Need a boycott- loony tunes Sillars
Need a media mogul- Rupert Murdoch
Need big business backers- Souter,Grossart Aberdeen Asset Manager guy with EBTs
Need emotion to outweigh reason- call your opponents scared

If Scotland leaves the Union it is out of both unions. It will have to apply for EU membership and it will not be an easy task getting back in on decent terms.
_____________
Not only would Scotland be welcome into the EU,.. it will be dragged into that European Union & confidently expected to play a more constructive role in that brotherhood than the reluctant UK has ever done.
WE, like our brothers across the Irish Sea, are ENTHUSIASTIC Europeans.

And this campaign has witnessed one egging of an MP and a Yes campaigner kicked on the leg….in the history I studied nazi campaigns were rather different.
Please don’t sully the memory of their victims by trivialising the term nazi.

You state that as fact on what basis other than opinion, because there is no precedent or written proceedure in place. But still a poster is ridiculed for asking the question, how very friendly and tolerant.
