The positivity around Celtic at the moment is in stark contrast to how things were as we homed in on our fifth consecutive title only a few weeks ago. In football, is seems, where you are or where you’ve been is not important, it’s the direction of travel.
If you’re moving forward, like lower-league Hearts were a year ago, fans flock to support. If you’re regressing, even from lofty heights, you’re on your own. A friend recently joked, “Why don’t we just liquidate and bring the same directors back in a newco?” That works for some.
Celtic need this injection of positivity right now, the specifics of which we’ve not seen since May 2000, when we knew we were appointing a manager of real talent. It will cost more money in several areas, of course, but keep one point in mind, talk of £15m on this or that is almost certainly not going to transpire into the splurge you might think. Celtic regularly spend close to this.
The CQN Bookstore has a special offer at the moment: buy Charlie Gallagher, What a Player, and get The Winds of Change FREE! Nice early one for Father’s Day, or just a wee read yourself…

I got a friend in Carnlough & he is very pally with a guy called Declan. This friend text me 2 nights ago telling me that an agreement had been reached although nothing had been signed.
I now firmly believe that it is a done deal.

BGFC, aye leaving after 17 wonderful years. Yes the addiction is understandable, that’s how it started with me in 1987 – started holidaying here on an annual basis then when the job came up I couldn’t resist it. Garmisch is lovely.
I’ll be back! :-)

I reckon Lenny would be an excellent choice as Assistant, that way the Manager will never have to suffer a touchline ban when wan NFL to take it for ye

Well at last Hotel Hairmyers came through and I am now the proud owner of a stent and the extra good news that I have no damage to my heart. Actually asked the Tim consultant doing me if I would still be able to nick up the 22 stairs to my seat in North Stand Lower. ‘You’ll be able to jog up’ says he.
Hail hail to our NHS staff.
