Celtic play their fifth and final preseason friendly tomorrow before Tuesday’s Champions League qualifier in Armenia. Five games feels light. Legs will still be tired after each game, the prospect of 90 minutes in extreme heat will not be welcome.
Opponents Alashkert will have played only three preseason games before facing Celtic, each against lower league Russian opponents, so while they will cope better with the heat, their underlying fitness will not be better than Celtic’s.
In theory, Tuesday’s game should be welcomed as an opportunity to increase preparedness before the tougher challenges that lie ahead. But this is football in July, when normal rules do not apply, as Lincoln Red Imps demonstrated two years ago.
Loved the lack of logic in Dave King’s written response to BBC’s Alasdair Lamont’s question on the Takeover Panel’s Contempt of Court proceedings. “The [Takeover Panel] know that I live in [South Africa] and that it will require exchange control approval to move the funds to London. They are just bullying me”.
The Takeover Panel’s rules (which exist for everyone) that an offer has to have proven funds in the UK is not an actual impediment. If King’s funds were not in the UK, he would be unable to pay for the shares three weeks after the offer is made.
Takeover Panel rules merely bring the date cash is required forward by three weeks. Still, I am sure this talk of bullying will make the Takeover Panel think twice before crossing King again.
This guy is beyond brilliant. He is behaving like this openly. You know how it ends.

P.s pmsl at it being 28yrs ago, most of the time when I go to see Celtic play I can never remember the score the previous time we played said team, with one or 2 exceptions.
As for who scored, nae chance..
I blame the Abbey…

Sipsini … you might be fighting a losing battle on that one … I think Amazon spends more on R&D than any other company in the world … estimated at 22.7 Billion US in 2017 alone.
If Amazon wants to get you, they will get you.

Brazil v Belgium free on BBC, or pay 12 quid to watch the glamour friendly on pay per view, Sevco v Bury……
BB
Bury happens when you are deid like Rangers. Appropriate that the tribute act are playing a team wi that name tonight. They are charging the monkeys 12 quid to see Lancashire’s Finest Team.
Quiz question.
Name one Bury player?
AMAZON?
It’s long been rumored that Amazon are considering buying the Italian Postal Service..Some wags have suggested that it might be good business for Amazon -,it’ll save Amazon having to cough up for the astonishing amount of Amazon stuff “lost ” by the It alian Post .

It was all going so well on your Wikepia quote on what a great country Uruguay is that is until the last paragraph; there is nothing ‘liberal’ or ‘equal’ about abortion only the deliberate targeting of the most vulnerable in society that is the unborn. A truly liberal and equal society looks after all equally.

Logan racially abused by Celtic supporters? Me f’ing arse, however please allow me to take the opportunity to call him a serial lair and cowardly attention seeking wee no talent rat (sincere apologies to Rattus norvegicus for comparing Logan to one of their species)
Belgiums defense all over the place so far.

I like wearing blue clothes. They go with my blue eyes. I also like to wear my orange Armagh GAA shirt. Confuses the monkeys who know me.

BLUE
Definition
A color no longer considered liturgical but used in certain religious services at certain times. It indicates constancy, fidelity, genuineness, and aspiration. It is the color specially associated with the Blessed Virgin. A special papal indult allowed some dioceses to use blue vestments instead of white on the feast of the Immaculate Conception. Mexico and Lourdes in France enjoy this privilege. Many white vestments today are ornamented in blue for use on feast days of Our Lady.
The ‘Belgiums’ take the lead 1-0
