Direction of travel, splurging cash

By on CQN BLOG & Comments

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…

    Dennis Hennessy, pictured in a jumper and red t-shirt, was caught on Wednesday night after he set off an alarm system while clambering over the 8ft perimeter wall of the palace.

     

     

    Westminster Magistrates’ Court heard how he wandered around the palace gardens and, after he was arrested by armed police, repeatedly asked: “Is Ma’am in? I am just here to ask why she stopped ma dole.”

    I think Lenny would make a great assistant, remember, one of the reasons Strachan made it 3 in a row was down to Lennys influence in the dressing room.
