Edouard and the need for forward planning

321

The first hope during an international break is that the players return without injury.  Last night I realised that my next hope is that Odsonne Edouard stops attracting attention to himself by putting the ball in the net for France Under-21s.

He scored twice in a 4-0 win against Albania.  Odsonne’s form is either going to drop off a cliff edge, or the summer of 2020 is going to have a familiar theme for Celtic.  We should be busy planning contingencies now.

  1. Alasdair,

     

     

    Got a relatively early start so I will wish you a Good Night Bro.

     

     

    Maximum Respect for the jibber jabber.

     

     

    And Fingers Crossed for the Younger Henderson being the YPOTY.

    ACGR,

     

     

    I have to apologise for my drunken call to you a few months ago…

     

     

    Intentions were good …. my only excuse!

  3. Alasdair MacLean on

    Good night Petec.

     

     

    Can’t wait to see the boy play in Dingwall.

     

     

    Scoring the winning goal against Sevco at the end of October would surpass everything.

  4. Alasdair MacLean on

    Gee Whiz.

     

     

    Beggar yer podium rubbish…

     

     

    Can I claim “Broke the blog” status?

    Me, who used to be the Blog grammar and punctuation pedant.

    Sir Nicholas Soames on Jacob Rees-Mogg: ‘He is an absolute fraud, he is a living example of what a moderately cut double-breasted suit and a decent tie can do with an ultra-posh voice and a bit of ginger stuck up his arse.’

     

     

     

    from electronic tims.

  6. Here’s a question I think Scotland could do with pondering……..

     

     

    ” what is it with the rainjurz, any ‘rainjurz’…..every rainjurz?”

     

     

    Huns have earned their reputation, why won’t scotland ask them why.

     

    The oranj odour??? As bold as ye like with their state-sponsored racist and sectarian guff……yet the polis are “messaged” as being ant- “disruptive” elements on the streets.

     

     

    “disruptive” – is sumbdy havin’ a laff!

     

     

    anyhoo – must run!

  7. aahhh, “Bunter Soames” The Colossus of Roads……………or was that his equally corpulent pater?

    =========================================================

     

     

    Wow . A first ?

     

    The promotion on CQN of the view of Nicholas Soames .

     

    High Tory.

     

     

    In reality just another Brexit bad loser.

     

    Onyerbike , Nick .

     

     

    Make way for the Boris and Jeremy bandwagon .

    i refuse to get involved with you.i am too busy out looking for a ditch for BORIS and his like.

  11. DAVID66

     

     

    Enjoy the tour……………………..but take a few tissues!

     

     

    Fantastic experience!

  12. Philbhoy – thanks – I took the Grandson a few years back and thoroughly enjoyed it, but I am also looking forward to the day ahead.

     

     

    I need to have the sensible head on later.🍺🍷🍺🍷🍺🍷🍺🍷🍺

  13. Tim Malone Will Tell on

    I see that Johnson might consider breaking the law and ending up in the pokey.

     

     

    Cold showers, porridge for breakfast and getting rodgered in every orifice – will just be like going back to Eton.

     

     

    He could spend his time in jail productively – maybe translating Mein Kampf into Latin?

    Well, see.

     

     

    I`m not a socialist , so I believe in democracy.

     

    The will of the people sort of thing .

     

    I know thats a challenging concept for a socialist.

  15. macjay1 for Neil Lennon on

    Boris Johnson’s main donor is betting against Britain

     

     

    That`s just a Tim betting against a Celtic win.

     

     

    The hip pocket nerve………..

    The Grauniad

     

     

    Well , what would you expect from Pravda ?

     

     

    Other than ” Fake news “.

  17. macjay

     

     

    Does it not worry you at all, or strike you as , at least, hypocritical, that all these Make Britain Great punters are moving their money out of the UK?

     

     

    Does it not give you pause for thought that Boris’s biggest backer is not only predicting, but backing his predictions with massive Hedge fund cash, that British firms are going to suffer after Brexit?

     

     

    They are funding a political outcome which will make the country poorer but enrich themselves. That is not the deluded view of anybody you can dismiss because they are “socialist”. That is the self-evident behaviour of this bunch of crooks as evidenced by the links I gave you. This evidence can be easily fact checked and it stands up.

     

     

    It sounds like you are in Embra Jury territory. That’s where the defendant admitted to being a bigot but the jury said “Naw! You’re no!”

     

     

    The brexiteer crooks are well served by such willing suspension of disbelief.

  18. macjay

     

     

     

    That`s just a Tim betting against a Celtic win.

     

     

     

    The hip pocket nerve……”

     

     

     

     

    That’s not a very compelling analogy because it would have to be a Tim that wanted the bet to win.

     

     

    A more complete analogy would be a Tim who not only bet on Sevco to beat Celtic in the league but also bought a few players for Sevco to make his prediction more likely to come true.

     

     

    Aff oot for a bit

  19. macjay1 for Neil Lennon on

    SFTB

     

     

    There`s only one argument.

     

     

    Is the stated will of the British people being served ?

     

     

    Please. No mealy mouthed equivocation .

     

     

    Like the socialist arrogance of …..

     

    ” The people were too stupid to know what they were voting for ” so we intellectuals , who know better , will ignore their will.

     

    Castro writ large .

    Glad to see you`re back up and sparring .

     

    :-)

  21. Tim Malone Will Tell on

    Ahhh – it’s OK to mention Castro but not Hitler. The usual hypocrisy from the usual source.

     

     

    The referendum was advisory – not legally binding. On the other hand, if Johnson defies the law he is a common criminal…

    TIM MALONE WILL TELL on 7TH SEPTEMBER 2019 12:28 PM

     

    Ahhh – it’s OK to mention Castro but not Hitler.

     

     

    Mention Hitler to your heart`s content.

     

    But expect Godwins law to be invoked .

     

    FYI……….Applies to Hitler Alone.

     

    Got it ?

     

    ======================================================

     

     

    ” The referendum was advisory – not legally binding. On the other hand, if Johnson defies the law he is a common criminal…”

     

     

    Cameron promised that the result would be implemented..

     

    Got It ?

  23. Tim Malone Will Tell on

    Cameron was Prime Minister and was subject to due parliamentary process – not a dictator.

     

     

    Got it?

     

     

    I don’t think we need lectures on Brexit from someone who has eff’ed of to Australia…

  24. Right aff oot tae pub, before a wee couple of hours at Paradise.

     

     

    Here we go 10 IAR, Here we go….

     

     

    Hail Hail
