Neil Lennon will be delighted to have secured his captain, Scott Brown, on a new long-term contract which sees the player tied to the club until after his 30th birthday in 2015, with the club having an option to extend the deal by a further 12 months.
Scott joined Celtic in 2007 and played central midfield until last season, when he was occasionally used wide right, to great effect. Reflecting some of the conversations we had earlier this week with Georgios Samaras, who has recently been a revelation wide-left after years of frustration as part of a front pairing, Scott seemed to revel in the space the wider position allowed him to exploit.
Before joining Celtic Scott made his name playing almost as an auxiliary striker at Hibernian, where he would burst into the box with well-timed runs but at Celtic he is more commonly anchored in a defensive midfield role. As a consequence, despite having played more games for Celtic than Hibs, and playing for a team who attack far more often, he has still to match his Hibs goals scored total at Celtic.

“That does’nt seem to be representative of their traditional repertoire!”
You must have overlooked their Xmas Bouncy song.
Nothing says Xmas as much as a song that has been linked to sectarian assault in some quarters.

There are many more appropriate presents for them.
http://www.thetaxcentre.com have a nice range of writs, demands, and winding up orders which would suit them nicely.

the rangers story – put in perspective
“There was a rich man who dressed in purple garments and fine linen and dined sumptuously each day.
And lying at his door was a poor man named Lazarus, covered with sores,
who would gladly have eaten his fill of the scraps that fell from the rich man’s table. Dogs even used to come and lick his sores.
When the poor man died, he was carried away by angels to the bosom of Abraham. The rich man also died and was buried,
and from the netherworld, where he was in torment, he raised his eyes and saw Abraham far off and Lazarus at his side.
And he cried out, ‘Father Abraham, have pity on me. Send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, for I am suffering torment in these flames.’
Abraham replied, ‘My child, remember that you received what was good during your lifetime while Lazarus likewise received what was bad; but now he is comforted here, whereas you are tormented..

Lol our bus doesn’t pass anything. Behind the goal so I’ll give you a wave buddy.
Night Bhoys. A joy as always!! Tan them at Tannadice Lenny.
Sorry
I just made up a fictional website address there and it turns out to be a real firm that may employ lawyers.
I would like to clarify that such a reputable firm would not lower themselves to do business with a disreputable outfit in Govan.
P.S. PF Ayr/malceye- does the above cover it? :-)
Who is the cheating ref. tomorrow?

BT,
I don’t know the Ballymena crowd mate. I was told that the boat was only taking 4 buses on the late sailing home.
It’s a new route and clubs got late confirmation because of the new arrangements. Also I have left it a bit late myself. I meat to ask Decky at the Hibs game on the 29 October but he didn’t travel.

Zorro?
I liked dressing up as Zorro when I was a wee boy.
And Davy Crocket was another one I’d dress up as.

That mob are rotten to core and their existence is an affront to common decency but I think the original attribution for that song is spurious.
Although nothing about that lots potential would surprise me.
PS.

EDB/BT
If he has a yellow top and black shorts he would be a wasp, still fits the bill, that would be the bill they haven’t paid :>)))

The stadium rocked on thos and many other nights. Few complained about it and even some journos wrote positive stuff.
Guff.
