Greenock, Argyle St and what Celtic Movement is all about

949

We are only two days away from the 9 in a row CQN Open, which again takes place at Aberdour Golf Club in Fife.  This year our guest of honour is Lisbon Lion, Willie Wallace.  We have already raised over £2000 from a shirt auction and raffle (thank you very much to all who participated) but we have a quick opportunity for you to win a signed Celtic strip in a raffle, ending on Saturday.

Tickets cost £1, if you can afford £1, get involved here.  Proceeds go towards 1254125, which is a crucial part of orientating the Celtic Movement in the direction of our founding fathers.

Willie Wallace will be at the Celtic Store, Argyle St, for late night shopping, from 5.30-7.30 pm tomorrow (Thursday) night.  Where you can buy a signed copy of his book and have a chat with the man himself.  Bring a camera.

Immediately after leaving the Celtic Store tomorrow Willie and Brogan Rogan (and a pile of books) are heading to the Greenock Celtic Supporters’ Club for a CQN Question and Answer evening.  Entry costs £2 (all of which is going to our charity causes).  DON’T FORGET YOUR CAMERA!!

I know many of you have read Brogan Rogan but if you’ve not seen him and Willie Wallace in action, get along tomorrow, it will be another classic Celtic night.  Tickets are available at the door.

Thanks to everyone who helped organise all of these events, more on that later.

    Broadfoot was expanding reality, spicing up the truth.

     

     

    RCO was re elected un opposed, so obviously no vote was needed.

     

     

    We never dissented, and I can see reasons why.

     

     

    RCO is a waste of space, a bent one at that, a man who has no morals or scruples, but maybes better having an incompitent fool in charge, rather than someone who may well take a time to fathom where he is coming from.

     

     

    But, in saying all that, Celtic better have something going on behind the scenes, or they are playing with the burny fire.

     

     

    Time will tell, but time is running out.

  2. HH GCT,

     

     

    Was hoping to catch you on at some time to wish you the best in your next health fight :(

     

     

    You came through the last one, so am sure you’ll come out fighting this one as well.

     

     

    If you can indulge me a bit of humour…

     

     

    A friend of mine had the big C – in the colon I think – about 6-7 years ago. Of course, being a good Tim, he refused to let it affect his every day life, and indeed, was still out there every weekend raising money for good causes. That he never ever complained about being in pain, meant that is was too easy for some of us to forget when drink got the better of us, and he sat patiently waiting to drive us all back from whatever charity/ fund raising do he had organised until one of us had the sense to realise.

     

     

    But he had me in stitches at this one – a wicked sense of humour this fella.

     

     

    In hospital, the doctor wanted to do a…manual? examination of the rectum prior to the main operation.

     

     

    As he felt the loss of his dignity, bent over the examination bed, with his reluctant rear end lubed up for another unwelcome invasion….the examination began….

     

     

    “Are you okay there Mr Smith?”

     

     

    “Aye, but that better be your feckin finger am feelin”…

    ———–

     

     

    RB. first pick well done,

     

     

    cant make it tomorrow, driving duties for nephews football,

     

     

    well done on making it happen, you probably allready met him , but BRTH is a brilliant story teller, prepare to be mesmerised, the historic moments this bhoy personally witnessed are just jaw dropping.

     

     

    god bless, and best wishes to the club.

    Wee prayer said.

  7. Tet,

     

     

    The Glasgow cup gave us a taste of what to expect when we meet them’s, in whatever incarnation they will call themselves.

     

     

    Like yourself I’ll dirty my hands and pop into their sites, their venom from even their more articulate posters gives you a taste of what to expect.

     

     

    Personally I’ll make sure my kids get no where near any games against them.

  8. 'crushed nuts?' 'Naw, Layringitis!' on

    Apparently Kenny Shiels had a clause in his contract which meant that if if he finished below eighth, he could be given his Harry Potters on a no fault basis.

     

    It would cost sevco north of £1M to shift Larry, Curly and Moe to pastures new from the THIRD division!

     

    Kenny is now bringing his analytical skills to bear on the flaws, inadequencies, slipshoddery and systematic failures of the Kilmarnock Job Centre.

     

    A prophet is unwelcome in his own country!!

  9. St Stivs haha I got it in 1..

     

     

    Ive not met BRTH but looking forward to it. Also Winning captains as well…

     

     

    Only bad thing is Vmhan is coming up…

     

     

    There will be around 20 CQners at it that I know and a lot of lurkers I know so it will be good to meet them all. If I am on the mic at any point I will as always ask them to buy me drink….

     

     

    We are getting a good crowd going so it should be a good Celtic night and hopefully a lot of money raised for Charity.

    The polis must have lost their kettle that night.

     

     

    Aye, what will be coming to a game near you soon.

     

     

    And you will do well to keep your weans indoors when it comes about again.

     

     

    Sad that it is like that, but it’s scotland, things are no easy in a hostile land.
