A quick check of the fixture list reveals that St Mirren are the first scheduled visitors to Celtic Park after 10 August, the date Clinical Director, Jason Leitch, said he hopes to allow capacity crowds into football stadiums. St Mirren were the last visitors to play in front of supporters at Celtic Park, on 7 March 2020, which will be satisfying, for those who like their fixtures with a bit of symmetry.
Olivier Ntcham’s hopes to earn a rewarding contract appear to hinge on Celtic providing the player with a free transfer, one year before the end of his current agreement. Deals like this were once regarded as rewards for players who gave the bulk of their career to a club. Subsidising Olivier’s potential wages from AEK would be an extraordinarily generous move by Celtic.
The player really needs some football next season, if not, he will be 26 when his contract expires, having played very little football for two years. I would rather pay him to remain the squad (with strict instructions to stay out of the Celtic penalty box) than lose him for free.
It’s great to see reports of talented young players on their way to Celtic, but we all know the script when it comes to transfers. Confirmative press stories mean nothing, just ask Celtic boss, Eddie Howe. If a player is on Celtic’s radar, he will be on a few others.
Speaking of Howe, his phone will have gone a bit quiet since four weeks ago. He rejected Celtic within a day of Real Madrid sounding out their new boss, Carlo Ancelotti, then manager of his boyhood club, Everton. Everton and Crystal Palace are both trying hard to appoint a manager who is not Howe, although he remains on both clubs’ lists. Southampton and Newcastle retained their managers, against earlier expectations.
Shay Logan, weeks after posting the message, “You can’t polish a turd” below a photo of Scott Brown in an Aberdeen shirt, was arrested and charged with an offence under the Proceeds of Crime Act. He remains as classy as ever.

Dirty thievin bassas wouldn’t let me cash out at 3-1 or 3-2 for the French, all it does it makes me more and more convinced to eff them, they are utter scum, need to find another bookie that arny as scummy, hasd I know, cnuts
……………………
WHO is the Bookie, is it Bet365 that wouldnt allow you to cash out ?
I had that problem a couple of weeks ago with my Bookie…” Bet365″
in the last week or so, Ive noticed it was happening again, although it didnt affect me on those occasions .
HH Mate.
I see CQN is linking us to another of the “not good enough” gang at City.
Why don’t we just go the whole hog and become an official feeder club to our rich friends?
If there is any truth in this one lets hope the manager is actually making the choice and not one of Peters family.
In addition to Scott Parker, the following have also moved from Fulham to Bournemouth:
“first-team coach Matt Wells, goalkeeping coach Rob Burch, head of performance Alastair Harris, first-team head analyst Jonathan Hill and lead physical performance coach Charlie Moore”
I would hope Celtic are equally supportive of our new manager.
I desperately want him to succeed. I won’t neglect the importance of the entire management team.
We must leave no stone unturned.

Aye, both correct, Bet365, my problem is I can’t register with another bookie with the same credit card, I only have the one, maybes I should get another one, they are very strict here.
Football is all about goals, entertainment and winning.
Yesterday was the perfect example.
HH.
PS : The game in Budapest finished well after midnight. Imagine if that was replicated here.

Sorry but NOT surprised that once again Bet365 are involved.
Let me guess what your problem was….” The ICON ” My Bets” which gives a customer the ” Cash Out” Option was suddenly NOT available/showing on their Site yet again ?
I first had that problem on the 13th June with the Holland v Ukraine match…and I have tried to complain to Bet365 and IBAS online, as Bet 365 are NOT answering their phones and blaming Covid.
HH.
FAO FRIESDORFER,
I have attempted to Submit my complaint form to IBAS Online a few days ago…but every time time I click on ” SUBMIT2, it comes up as ” AN ERROR” ?
I have since sent IBAS a separate Email and I will wait til they respond ?
Between Bet365 and IBAS…its enough to drive a good man to drink !
LOL
HH

Cheers mate. I am a wee bit better today but Ive not been out or had any Beer since Sunday of last week due to being unwell.
I could go out Today for some Beers, but I dont want to return home after the beers and fall asleep and miss the Two Games that are on TV Today/tonight.
I need to go to the Vet on Thursday morning by Taxi as usual and the Taxi will wait for me and bring back into the Toon, so I will probably have a few Beers then IF Im feeling FIT Enough to drink ?

You obviously didn’t see Ange and Dom’s presser where they repeatedly that “the club is working very hard” to resolve issues.
More bullshit platitudes if you ask me.
Not a penny more.
Bankier has been in the seat 10 years. that is what is wrong with the board, they get to stay as long as they want.
Given the Independence comment, maybe he is posting on here.
—————
Ian Bankier (born 1952)[1] is the chairman of Celtic Football Club and executive chairman of Glenkeir Whiskies Ltd.[2] Bankier began his career as a lawyer before becoming involved with a range of whisky companies culminating in his part ownership of the Whisky Shop chain. He was opposed to Scottish independence during the 2014 Scottish independence referendum.[3]
Bankier was educated at St Aloysius primary school in Glasgow where Bankier said that in primary six his teacher would give them double the homework if Celtic lost and none if they won.[4] Bankier then studied law at the University of Edinburgh before becoming a partner in the Glasgow law firm McGrigor Donald.[5]

Bankier was also on the hun board after he completed his catholic education and upbringiing.

My point exactly, platitudes, no actual actions that back any of it up.
It took a lot for me not to renew but I guess I’ve just gotten to the point that no amount of bullshit will change my mind. Real tangible actions are what is needed.
Of the group I have been going to games with for over 20 years only 3 renewed out of 8.
Also in my own family of 4 season ticket holders 1 renewed, thats why I’m finding this talk of incredible ticket sales hard to swallow.

No he wasn’t.

He’s not a hun.
His Celtic connections are tenuous, and I don’t think he’s anymore of a Celtic, or even a football, fan than than his boss, TGD, is but he’s not a hun.
not sure who to support tonight
My English mates have supported Scotland on FB and Whatsapp conversations in the tournament and are getting a wee bit miffed at some of my fellow Scots’ attitude to them
My heart has always wanted England to lose but I lived there 15 years, made loads of pals etc so it seems childish to think that way now
Feck it, England it is. tin hat on
New article posted some time ago, folks.
I wouldn’t mind the big Swiss striker, Embolo, joining us. Beyond our price range, I think.
