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.

MWD thanks for your response my point was not to sabotage the survey but to highlight how easily it can be manipulated. I therefore will have no faith in the outcome. Hail Hail Hebcelt
Clubbed – clubby
the token tim – Yes!
Though I am basing my fathership on a variety of 1980’s role models, mainly Optimus Prime, Darth Vader, and Mr. T. (thumbsup)
“This is a chance for my vote to be more meaningful.
It is a chance to be in control of our own destiny and to get the government we vote for.”
====================================
I’ve never voted nationalist……….like the majority of my countryfolk……….and look what’s happening, the cliff edge approaches.
I don’t even know why we are having this National Anthem debate.
Everyone knows it should be Sam the Skull…

Would have been hilarious if, after than eloquent and convincing, argument you came out – and for that reason I’m voting No!
Scratching of heids all round at that point!

there has been a marked increase in Saltires at Celtic games this season.
MWD says AYE
Jamesgang
I have just missed you twice at CQN corner. Try to catch you on Sunday.
Kitalba tell me when you’re going with the Saltire and I’ll get you a ticket to sit beside me.Your safety is guaranteed. Hail Hail Hebcelt
Are “they” deid yet?
Magnificentseven:
See above, believe what you want to believe, I do. I also credit different sources with different credence, but when we are being warned from so many international sources to be careful for what we wish for, only a fool would dismiss it without some consideration as scaremongering.
After all, what have all these countries heads of states and companies CEOs’ got to gain by even bothering to comment?
See that word ‘tarrifs’ that word could be defined devastation… or just another challange if you chose so.
Kitalba
‘banging their nuts’ in relation to Sevco.
imagine if they had decided to change their failed policies.
Simples eh!
MWD says AYE
DD
Look forward to it sir.
HH jamesgang
Correct jamesgang!
But my credibility would be zero with some blog reading family members.
Kitalba
whilst other Economic and business leader say the polar opposite.
oh! Who to believe.
MWD says AYE
hebcelt:
If I take a flag to a game it has always been a Saltire for the past twenty years. Took a wee bit of stick for doing it over the years, but such is life.
MWD:
You believe who you want to believe and carpe diem and hope for a tommorow. I do.
Sftb,
There will be an awakening. Will it be an awakening from a bad dream? Or a wakening up to face a nightmare reality?
____________________
There’s too many people living the nightmare already, if it’s a No vote it will get worse.
SFTB
It’s impossible to read your musings anymore as I am walkiing blindly into the dark!
MWD says AYE
Mwd
I don’t know why you waste your energy debating with some of the numpties and ass kissers on here
Kitalba
I am. With an informed decision. but thank you all the same.
MWD says AYE
18.5p / share.
Market capitalisation £12.5m
2 or 3 players who would raise A couple of million. Sell off Ibrokes..and Murray park.
Must be work considersation by CFC…
Kitalba
Fly the flag with pride.
mwd:
You are very welcome. It’s like trying to win the lottery without buying a ticket.
Hope you have a terrific Friday mate.
Voting Naw wi ma heid… But a know it will be an Aye in Ten years time even if it’s a Naw ra morra..
TBJ. A nice way to talk about fellow Celtic supporters I dont think. I agree with you folk on here are unlikely to change there mind because of what they read on CQN.Everyone has the right to vote yes or no its called democracy.However, name calling is just childish imo. H.H.

My email account is getting spamed from a Russian server and translated the title to be “On business for you” No idea what business they are after but I’m not opening up the attachment. Getting 80+ per day ffs!
Delaneys Dunky:
I was before all this indy stuff and was called a traitor for it, now all of a sudden racists fly the very same flag and call me a traitor. Can’t figure it.
Maybe Tomorrow does belong to Scotland.
.
If it’s a Yes.. Tomorrow I hope Google Earth capture what will Shirley be the Biggest ever Harlem Shake..
My Wee Ghirl asked her Teacher if the Class could design the New Australian flag on Friday..
Teacher asked Her Why..???
Doh..

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Unless you voted in the ’79 referendum, you have never voted in an election like this.
For some it’s a Cliff Edge, for others it’s a Rainbow.

I fear that it will get worse, whether its a No vote or a Yes vote. The influence of International Capital and The Establishment does not stop at Border Controls. We don’t get rid of Tories because we imagine they are all English.
Foretelling the future, though, has a bad track record. The TV series Space 1999 is now seen as having been set 15 years in the past- their vision of future technological progress and the importance of Space Travel was wildly wrong. I caught the opening scenes of the very funny Demolition Man a few nights back; it was set in the year 2032, less than 20 years away. I am confident we will look nothing like that, even if Boris Johnson & the UKIPS ever get into power, and I’m fairly sure they won’t.
We overestimate our technological progress and underestimate how constrained we are by our human characteristics.
I still want a jet-pack.
SFTB
The same one represented by the guy who walked out of a Leeds Bar because of a threatening atmosphere that consisted of Republican singing?
It was a York bar and there was no Republican songs being sung.
yorkbhoy:
You are making SFTB’s point for him.
Some people here are predicting a ‘Yes’ vote and others quote the consequent meltdown of the pound and UK stock market.
Given that both are trading within 15 of their range in the last month or so, this implies either that there’s zero chance of a Yes or else there won’t be financial armageddon.
Kitalba
I flew my Saltire at the UEFA cup final in Seville. It went well with my full Celtic kit.
Don’t recognise the racists you speak of?
kitalba
Many more highly respected economists and business people are issuing very real warnings but it’s all being swept away as scaremongering. Much better to be guided by the much trusted Alex Salmond, his word is his bond you know.
CultsBhoy. I agree with you even if it is No on Friday the debate is likely to continue and the next time the change may come. I dont think it is going to go away it is to close for that.H.H.
Correction –
Some people here are predicting a ‘Yes’ vote and others quote the consequent meltdown of the pound and UK stock market.
Given that both are trading within 1.5% of their range in the last month or so, this implies either that there’s zero chance of a Yes or else there won’t be financial armageddon.
