Hapoel threat has merit, fabrications don’t make SFA report

790

Hapoel Beer-Shiva delivered Olympiakos first defeat in a Champions League qualifying match in six years. The Greeks have competed in the group stage every season since, holding their own throughout the period, so getting knocked out by Hapoel was the equivalent of losing a Scottish Cup semi-final to a lower-league club.

Hapoel are not better than Olympiakos, not nearly so, but they were good enough to progress when they got the breaks. Anyone who thinks we’ll easy past them into the group stage is being ridiculously complacent.

I’m trying to avoid the nonsense coming out of Ibrox while we have more important things going on, but good grief! Please, please, have them follow through on the nonsense of ditching their legally contracted Puma strips to wear something else.

That stadium seems to be a beacon attracting stupid people doing stupid things.

You’ll note the INDEPENDENT SFA report on crowd at the Scottish Cup final recorded no assaults whatsoever on Newco players. This clearly caused some dissonance at the media organisations who reported utter fabrications after the game.

Never mind, Newco is in the same good hands which were on the tiller when their disastrous EBT plan was enacted, and the players who benefited from EBTs are front and central of Newco media coverage.

If you can’t see how this story ends, you’re not looking.

    I’m fine Gordon, ta for asking. I hope you are loking after your self and the Rutherglen Massive.

     

     

    Believe it or not, I really don’t like politics.

     

     

    Especially these days.

     

     

    We have Tremendous players ready to start making the move from Academy to the Celtic First team, IMO.

  2. Big Georges Fan Club - Hail, Hail, Wee Oscar on

    Lost a long bliddy post there!

     

     

    Battery about to go – so more tomorrow..

     

     

    Briefly – was at the Janko and BR press conference yesterday with Wee BGFC – sat in the room with the tv press after Shady finished and before BR came in. Dislike of Celtic was very clear in the snide comments about our player, manager and club – right down to the coffe and biscuits provided.

     

     

    BR knows exactly what he is saying when he says ‘R*****s coming in ‘ rather than BACK or RETURNING – he is on to them. Made them wait an hour to speak to him – slapped the Sky guy down, burned the Rhona McLoud “please speak about Rangers…” Person.

     

     

    BR is sharp as a tack .

    Brendan has lived this gig since he was born.

     

     

    He could teach us about it.

     

     

    Scottish football press are amateurs.

  5. BR was hugely impressive in Dublin too. Simple things like going back into the Dressing Room after the players had left to thank the cleaning staff. Celtic made sure that all of the towels etc were tidied away into plastic bags before leaving.

     

     

    I get the impression that BR misses nothing and is a complete professional.

     

     

    The staff at the Aviva were very grateful and it left a very favourable impression of our club.

     

     

    Long may it continue.

     

     

    I’m off to pick up Clogher Jnr.

     

     

    HH & Nite

  6. Bognor – I met the same crowd of bigots myself in and around the same area at lunchtime. Grown adults playing at dressing up – your nephew is a smart young man. My antidote was laughing at their sympathisers 2 hours later tripping home from the bigot dome through the city centre.

     

     

    Bubbles well and truly burst!!!
