It’s heartening to see Celtic linked with a raft of players over the weekend and encouraging for many but I’d ignore everything you read about a Celtic target this far out from the transfer window opening. All an agent needs to do is post a DVD to Lennoxtown to be able to legitimately link his player to Celtic. The club will also scout up to 100 players a season, enough to keep you busy on the stats sites for hours, but even Ronny doesn’t know who he will be signing at this stage of the season.
After 11 wins in 13 league games Aberdeen’s title challenge inevitably slipped. They’ve won once since February, coming from behind against Motherwell at Pittodrie, as Celtic, Dundee and Partick Thistle have taken points from them. We are at the stage of the season when injuries, suspensions and fatigue kick in. Whereas Celtic were able to add quality to their squad in January, Aberdeen have to work on a tighter budget. That the gap at the top is only seven points, with Celtic having a game in hand, says a lot for the direction of travel at Aberdeen.
If Ronny gets his treble wish, this season’s title will be a lot tighter than the last treble, won at a canter by Martin O’Neill. It was a weaker league back then, Aberdeen were rubbish.
Talking about direction of travel, have you been watching the ebay auction for Hospitality for four for a day at this year’s Open Golf Championship at St Andrews? This is a unique prize and has attracted some incredible support.
The auction is in aid of the Celtic Quick News appeal to build a fourth school kitchen in Malawi for Mary’s Meals. Shuttle transport for the five minute journey to and from the golf course as needed, with beer, Gin and Whisky tastings throughout the day with the master distiller.
You also have the chance to create a unique CQN single malt whisky cask worth potentially £5000 for future CQN charities, and you will receive a bottle of this very special single malt whisky to commemorate the great day when it is bottled in several years.
Eden Mill is Scotland’s newest and most innovative distillery and brewery incorporated in February 2012! Located just 2 miles from the famous Old Course itself it provides a perfect base for hospitality for yourself and 3 friends on a day of your choosing at the forthcoming open golf championship on July 16th to 19th.
But this is so much more than just a day’s hospitality at the home of golf. Before taking to the course to watch, you will enjoy a breakfast roll or two and discuss your perfect single malt whisky with the master distiller.
Whilst you and your friends are enjoying the golf he will seek to surpass your favourite whisky by using the best barley to create the right wash and recommending the right type of barrels for our very own unique CQN 1/4 cask of single malt. A cask which will mature and provide over £5000 of future funding for our charities in a few years’ time.
You will return to the distillery by shuttle bus for lunch and an optional beer tasting and then for afternoon tea with a tutored gin and whisky tasting with the owner capping off a memorable, unique and very special day for your group and for CQN.
My thanks to Eden Mill for their incredible support. You can bid on the auction here.

Watched the match. Are Viola always that poor?
Rube looked good mind.
TBJ,
Count me in please
Good night all and sleep well .
Jobo, enjoy your trip to Mallorca. My son was there last week on a football coaching trip and said the temperatures were in the low to mid twenties. They stayed in Santa Ponsa.

We might yet see the return of CHarlie “check oot ma hair” Mulgrew….
Him and Bitton would give us the defensive balance. The 3 ahead of them, shud be just raw energy…. Armstrong, Johansen, GMS or Forrest….. Commons benched.
Ruggyman, Charlie is still missing through injury despite Ronny saying in February, Charlie was back in training.
Delighted that a plan is up and running, fair play to ye Jinky. Its great being based over in Ireland you can make suggestions but are too far away to do anything.
Credit where credit is due, Awe Naw came out with original idea and Jinky is doing the spade work.
I agree it should be for all deceased CQN’ers but it would be nice if the family of Derbyshire Bhoy could be informed that the initiative was prompted by his passing.
Clashcitybhoy,
I’m not certain that was the one but it looks good!
TBJ
If I get away fae work sharp, I will get there for 7.20 train permitting too. :)
delaneys dunky.
Fiorentina played poorly . Not Rube’ s first choice 11.
Awe naw
The Irish ginger ninja … Indeed .
The Broony nutmeg clip from today, big Mulgrew looked to be involved in full training… He can’t be far away.
TBJ-Is it easy to set up a text donate thingy? Embdae?
TBJ
How is Roccobhoy ?
Why doesnt he post any more
I have his number,must send him text

Some lads already have their own paving stones.
But..
The answer is yes, but we need to consult with family/significant others to get approval.
Just my opinion though.
Maybe a roll of honour on another stone.
Maybe a Mary’s Hospital named in his honour.

My eldest son has a new girlfriend.
She is intelligent, charming, humble and friendly. She gets on great with Mrs Fieldofdrams. She is a lovely lass in every way.
She’s a Motherwell fan. She wants to join the Police. Her dad is a Policeman.
Where did I go wrong?
this is good, hover over the picture for a good read.

I love to watch Pirlo. Why I decided to watch. Therefore, a wee bit disappointed. :)
Corky
To be fair .. You did declare a level of pishedness at the time so didn’t think you would be back on until you either sobered up or tomorrow lmfao
As long as we get it done that’s all that matters and I don’t have a contact for Derbyshire bhoy but sure someone else said they did
I will contact Martin Kane’s family and also Stevie Reynolds . Sure Lenny bhoy will let St. John’s wife Linda know. Trying to think back now to the other guys who have passed from this place so anyone want to put. List up that would be good .
rwe
That is a very good point. Maybe we can ask if they would like it and can their real names be placed next to their CQN handles or remain anonymous by just using their CQN handles or nothing at all. If we cannot contact them then only their CQN handles.
Sorry to be so depressing but maybe we can set up a fund and do it every year after Nakas suggestion above.
Just ideas…

You raised your bhoy to be an adult so that he could make his own decisions, and not just proxy decisions for you. I said Proxy.

No Pirlo – no party .The Inter mad old codger from down the valley calls Pirlo – Mr Velvet Slippers.
Fiorentina are very mercurial.Often very good / often very bad .They were sieve like tonight. They played far better in the away leg.
CoS clears the King for takeoff….
Interesting statement which King made:
“I have fully co-operated with the SFA over the last few weeks and thank them for the care and attention with which they have undertaken this task”
A translation for those who don’t speak lyingese:
“The SFA have fully co-operated with me over the last few weeks and I thank them for the care and attention with which they have undertaken this task
rwe…
Good point re: other past supporters having their own names laid down already.
Think my kids have marked my spot already :((
Sometimes humour is the best way to move forward, the average age on here will see people pass away….I sound like the grim reaper…that’s reality though.
TBJ’s suggestion of a CQN stone is a grand idea, most have been on here a lot longer than me.
I’d like to think all that have passed will be remembered.
I certainly wouldn’t mind my name inscribed beside all that I have met from Pauls site.
Hopefully a long time coming:)
