The mind is a remarkable thing. If you ask around, you’ll find Celtic fans tell you we played Boavista in the Uefa Cup semi-final in Porto on the Thursday night, before going to Ibrox on the Saturday (it was the Sunday).
Similarly, Barry Ferguson is mumping his gums without restrain today, complaining about Rangers fixtures in May 2008. Rangers were due to play a ridiculous number of games in May due to qualifying for the Scottish Cup and Uefa Cup finals, while catching up on postponed fixtures.
The SPL decided to accommodate them by extending the league programme until two days before the Scottish Cup final. This final was on the last possible date before clubs were ordered to release players for that year’s Uefa European Championships, which started 14 days later.
This season has echoes of 2008 but nothing more. Whereas clubs would have been forbidden from using certain players after the date of the Scottish Cup final in 2008, under current proposals for this year, the second bottom club from the Premiership and qualifier from the Championship will need to retain a number of players beyond their contract end date of 31 May.
Retaining players beyond 31 May will cost clubs money, and players could theoretically refuse to extend their season by a few days, which is this season’s problem. 2008’s problem was a hard deadline imposed by Uefa with no extensions possible. The decision was out of the SPL’s hands.
Great article on the club site today marking Br. Walfrid’s passing and the struggles faced by our forefathers in the late 19th Century. The news that the Foundation are feeding 500 of Glasgow’s homeless today continues the momentum from Wednesday night. Well done to all involved.

HH
roy, could you help me with a picture of celtic 7 dundee 1 around about 79.
and one of a handsome hun please
For those ex pat of non Dom CQNers I should let you know that there’s a range of boxers (undies not pugilists) called Baw Bags. Pure genius marketing.
Saw them in the green wellie in tyndrum at the start of the week and expanded the wee Mhan’s ‘this is what it means but don’t say it at school’ vocab.
Roll on to this evening.
Driving home this evening. Dalziel (which my iPhone just auto corrected to ‘salmonella’!) was poo stirring about Griffo saying facing Hibs in the cup final would be a bit of a nightmare for him.
He’s a baw bag, says the wee mhan!
Mildly inappropriate language.
But he’s fair mastered context and MSM spin!
HH jamesgang

After years of searching and numerous post graduate studies a ‘handsome hun’ has not been found. Researchers have now filed a ‘handsome hun’ in the same drawer as Nessie and Big Foot.

Bgx – I reckon it will be a useful way out for King. He can claim he tried but the unseen fenian hand stopped him! I don’t think he was ever really serious once he realised he couldn’t get it all on the cheap.
Shame. I think he’d have been great for the rest of Scottish football

Roy croppie – great stuff pal. Enjoyed the song too. Hadn’t heard it in years. Used to know them all but kinda went off the rebel songs a few years back. A wee blast now and then does the trick though. Cheers
