I have to take my glasses off to read and post on here… But then can’t see the TV?.. Every time, I hear the crowd react, I have to put the glasses back on. Just poked myself in the eye! A sure sign that I’m getting old.
Just tremembered that I Booked an appointment for this afternoon, so will likely miss the end of the golf!! What was I thinking?!

The Reed Rory match is just great. Really raising their games to match each other. Amd good to see the two players showing real appreciation for the others skill there.
But still hope Rory wins!

Thank you for that mate. Don’t fret, by this time next year another anniversary will be the priority so this weekend should be fine!
The highlight was Celtic’s result at Dens. A huge, and highly credible, 3 points.

Given they lost the first 4 points, and then the last 3 last night, if euro comes back to win, would this be an even greater comeback than Medina?
See Brendan’s wanting a indoor pitch,up in Lennox town,how much would that cost,and will the board sanction, it to be built,

Scott Brown was a mixed bag yesterday. A great goal and some fantastic driving runs to penetrate between Dundee’s lines of defence. However, there were several mistakes which on another day could have been costly.
A superb win though.

Last year the PLC Board agreed to pay all permanent staff the then current Living Wage rate as a minimum. The Chairman also implied that this minimum rate would be reviewed at the time of the normal annual wage review at Celtic – 1st July. What he did not tell us, but which they actually did, was to remove the annual bonus from all staff who had their wages raised as a result of this development ie the lowest paid employees were removed from the bonus scheme. We recognise that a guaranteed higher wage is preferable to a discretionary bonus but we felt, and said publicly at the time, that it was a mean and petty move by Celtic and amounted to giving with one hand and taking away with the other.
We are now advised by Celtic that the minimum hourly rate paid at Celtic Park is £8.25 – as of 1st July – which is the current Living Wage and will be until the new rate is announced in November.
As it stands, the wage policy at Celtic falls short of the conditions that would allow the Club to be an accredited Living Wage employer in that it does not commit to the uprate; does not guarantee that sub-contracted workers on Celtic’s premises are also paid the Living Wage and does not pay the rate to its non-permanent employees ie about 400 workers mainly employed as match day staff and in retail. In addition, if uprates continue to be paid on 1st July then it will be paying less than the Living Wage for around 8 months of every year. Having said that, accredited LW employers are allowed a period of six months to apply the new rate so they are not too far behind those accredited employers who take the full six months.
Mindful of the progress that has been made – small though it is – the Celtic Trust have decided not to bring a Living Wage resolution to the PLC AGM this year. We have not abandoned the campaign and will continue to bring pressure to bear on Celtic via our normal meetings and through, we hope, the new forum when it is implemented, to become fully accredited Living Wage employers.
We thank everyone for all of the support we had for this campaign, those who signed the petition and supported the resolutions at the previous two AGMs. The lowest paid workers have now been paid more than they would have been without this campaign and we are delighted about that. We hope you will continue to support us, and that, unless national political developments overtake it, we will soon be able to say that our Club is an Accredited Living Wage employer. We think Brother Walfrid would have wanted that, don’t you?

About half of the LMS brigade-inc myself!-can count themselves bliddy lucky after that Arsenal goal.
But-if a similar handball had been committed by a defender somewhere else in the box,would a penalty have been given?
It clearly wasn’t deliberate,after all.

Thanks for your earlier and detailed response. Not waffle at all.
I know what you mean about those who like the blood and guts style of football (er) but I am not one of those. I like controlled footballers who try to play the game in a silky fashion. Nir Biton is not on top form at the moment but, when he is, I like the kind of footballer that he can be. Scott Brown is not like that but I think he is much more classy than some think. He certainly gets stuck in and fights for every ball but there is an incisive, game-reading talent there as well. At Celtic Park anyway, EVERYTHING goes through Broonie. I remember you and I having a similar conversation last year and I believe it remains true that one has to actually be at the game to truly assess our Captain`s input and influence.
All the best,
JJ
