Grown-up footballers, Mourinho accused of cheating, Linfield lucre

371

When did footballers get all grown-up? Jonny Hayes offer to pay for new Aberdeen strips which had his name emblazoned on them, before his transfer to Celtic, is just such a thoroughly decent thing to do. He added a condition that the strips he bought back were donated to a worthy cause.

Small gestures go a long way in the game. I suspect this guy will surprise a few on the upside.

Linfield want to face Celtic at an early kick-off on 11 July for financial reasons, instead of taking the second leg to Belfast a week later, when, you have to assume, they expect the competitive element to have gone from the tie. 11 July is no less combustible in Belfast than the 12th (it is technically more combustible).

Kick-off at 9am, let the football fans watch their team in without the distraction of Belfast’s nocturnal July activates, or switch the first leg to Glasgow. And then hold the second leg at 9am in Belfast.

Jose Mourinho was thing morning accused of being a cheat! The Spanish tax authorities are 14 years and one month behind Celtic fans. Pay your tax or Karma will get you every time.

    Maybe the mods are using one of those ‘Enigma’ machines from WW2:)

    If Linfield are wanting to make a lot of money for the home tie against us? They should play it at Ibrox on 12th July. :)

    I can picture the mods now, down in their bunker, with everything they need.

     

    Powdered Egg, Spam, Fags, stolen Enigma machine, and pictures of Winston Churchill on the wall:)

    D.D. 8.17.

     

    It would be full of Celtic fans.

     

    The Sevco support will be in Belfast with their flegs.

    Great post. It will be disappearing soon :-)))

    Doc.

     

    When you posts moved to the bottom, I stole your podium.

     

    However I’ve been deleted again :-))

     

    Magic.

  10. More madness

     

    Belgian Police say a person was “Neutralised” by Soldiers guarding Brussels Central Station after a small explosion and there are no other casualties.

  11. JNP, watch your language, you’ll not get deleted! Did Inregain the podium?

     

     

    DD, no such thing as a gentle prod.

     

     

    For those lurking prod in this case is like a poke, to gain a response, not an abbreviation of a religious group.

     

     

    The Green Man, despite berating them, with some humour, I respect the mods and the job they do. Always agree with them, of course not, but then I do, usually, stick by Paul’s rules.

  12. Jimmynotpaul on

    Doc.

     

    I’ve never swore once. Seriously.

     

    My posts are being deleted for using the word troll as a description. I don’t want to be anymore specific or this one might be deleted too.

     

    I’ve worked that out now. Well at least I think I have. :-))

     

    No it went to The Green Man.

     

    Hail Hail

    Doc.

     

    I’ve just noticed though, you have the podium on this page. :-))

     

    Hail Hail

    Given that I can’t verify the meaning or intent of the use of the word “inregain”, I’m afraid your post will have to be deleted…

    Does anyone know when our new pitch will be ready to play on, I remember somebody saying it took 8 weeks to knit together . HH

     

     

     

    Probably bang on there.My Ma used to take about 8 weeks to knit me a jumper,so about right.

    inregain with minoxyidyl is a well known pubic hair restorer.

  18. So it seems that we have new unwritten rules, it would be handy if the rules were made known before time is spent writing posts only for them to be deleted on a whim.

     

    I am not allowed to call a Troll a Troll, WTF is the blog becoming when right wing racist posts are not moderated yet when you call out a Troll for Trolling your post gets deleted.

     

    The mind boggles so it does.

  19. I don’t care when we play the game in Belfast (if they qualify) or who goes, but I do care if the venues are reversed, that’s a no no, as I said earlier the security is the home teams responsibility not UEFA or CFC, if the 17th century Neanderthals turn up and can’t be kept in order so be it deal with it, they have two choices, one is a protest march against Catholics and the papel system of Rome is they’r choice of entertainment, and the other is a football game against a Scottish football team,the protest march is they’r business, we on the other hand just want to play football against the local team and like many other places we have visited through Europe leave the place the way we found it, with no animosity, trouble, or bad behaviour, and thank the locals for they’r generosity and kindness, and wish them all the best when they come to Celtic Park, simple.

    TD67.

     

    I agree, my understanding though is, PSNI will have final say and UEFA are comfortable with this.

     

    Linfield are desperate for first leg to be in Belfast, so are using any influence they have to keep first leg in Belfast for financial reasons. If they can’t control their revolting hordes then maybe they will have to consider moving to another venue, with second leg still at Celtic Park.

    I am guessing our posts, along with a few others,were deleted as troll has been judged to be personal abuse but as you say it’s the truth.

    The new pitch at Celtic park is being laid over 2 close seasons,the main foundations are being laid just now with the hybrid stuff getting added after the final home game of the coming season

  22. So the huns have appointed Mark Allan as a director of football after they have signed a whean of players, shrewd move, I also didn’t know he was about to get the sack from City for tapping up youth players resulting in their acadamy getting a two year transfer ban, should fit right in at the huns then.

  23. Can the Huns do anything right?.Sky announcing they have got the guy from Man City to be their DOF.

     

    After Pedro has signed all the players.No idea what this guys job will now entail,but on ,probably ,you would think,about 40 grand a week,there seems very little now to do.

     

    He is in for some shock when it dawns on him that this is the Huns last throw of the dice.When this cash goes,thats it.

     

    Sheer lunacy going on over there.

     

    I like it.
