I’m sure Ronny Deila is delighted to have the backing of John Harton, now he doesn’t need it. John’s attachment to the club is not in doubt, nor should a new manager want unquestioning support from anyone, but some clubs reach a point when they become unmanageable. Influential voices collaborate with perma-upset media and fans to expose shoots of recovery to a winter frost.
The mea culpa, when it arrives, is often too late.
Save us from the click bait that is suggesting Craig Gordon is a ‘target’ for some or other English club. Derk Boerrigter is interesting Real Madrid, honest, they’ve been watching him with the Development Squad.
I’ve been waiting for weeks on someone to ask the question: if a club accepts money on the condition that the lender has the right to appoint two directors, in the event the club removes those directors, do you reckon that would be a breach of the terms of the loan?
I’d be extremely worried if a well-intentioned, but nonetheless, baying mob chased away the last independent director of my club. Many Germans celebrated the Armistice, thinking a conclusion to hostilities had been agreed. Months later they learned the terms left them bereft of land, defensive capabilities, capital equipment, authority and self-respect. What seemed like an end to the trauma only set in motion far greater horrors.
Our good friends at Magners have offered two premium seat tickets for tomorrow’s game at Celtic Park. To win, email me the name of the team we’re playing at celticquicknews@gmail.com
Competition closes at 5pm tonight. If you would like to help build a school kitchen for 909 hungry kids for Mary’s Meals in Malawi while entering the competition, you can donate £1 here. Thank you.

Just wondering why Derek Llambias would bother post a reminder on the AIM site about the possibility that the additional 5 million might not be forthcoming unless he already knew it wouldn’t be forthcoming…..
Would it be a shock if the 5 million stayed safe and sound in the SD account?
Or maybe the 5 million is there to payback the previous 5 million which paid back the previous 3 million.
CELTIC have agreed a record-breaking new kit deal with US sports giants New Balance.
The Boston-based group have signed a multi-million pound contract with chief executive Peter Lawwell to replace Nike from the start of next season.
SunSport understands the kit deal is the biggest in Celtic’s history and is expected to be confirmed in the next 48 hours. It will end a decade-long association with Nike who paid the Hoops £5m per season to make their jerseys.
New Balance are keen to break in to the UK football market and recently announced a deal with Liverpool.
Celtic’s global appeal attracted them to the Parkhead club and they thrashed out the lucrative contract.
With Nike’s £25m deal coming to an end, Hoops chiefs weighed up several options for a new kit supplier.
But New Balance’s pitch impressed the Celtic board and an agreement has now been struck.
This cash injection will be a boost to Hoops boss Ronny Deila as he targets new signings in the summer.
The US giants are expected to market Celtic merchandise across the States and Asia where they have a heavy presence.
Stoke City, FC Porto and Sevilla have also signed with New Balance in recent months.
Celtic are playing well the now…it’ll no be long till Ronny wins the Treble and joins the Gallant-Band of…Mr Stein and the blessed Martin O’Neill.
But…what if…Celtic FC’s historic haunted relationship with the League Cup rears it’s head and blows Ronny’s Treble dream?…will Ronny be a flop / failure / pillock / ???…or will he get away with winning a one-horse Championship race and a Scottish Cup Double??
Or…will…Jackie MacNamara show the world that underdogs have their day in the sun or…even…days in the sun??
Ronny hizny won anything yet…he looks favorit to win the one-horse League race…maybe a Treble but…he’s already done the Treble by getting Celtic put out of Europe 3 times in one season…will I be barred for this post? Hmmm?
Bye.
enjoyed this wee read ….Phil is a braw braw Huntertainer….the Huns just love him to bits ….hehehehe

Thank you for your reply; the Joseph Rowntree data you supplied is a reliable source, but, as you say, it is not really specific enough.
Anyway, I suspect your thoughts on the subject and mine are not so far apart.
This mornings figures from the IFS portray a dismal picture for the working man/woman with all the political parties taking some relief from them going into the election. But they’re all damned by the fact that productivity ( the wealth driver) is scandalously low and indicates a lack of investment, something that’ll comeback to haunt both companies and governments (of whatever hue and including the SNP).
Good morning CQNers,
Last night I had a cold-call from someone purporting to be representing Celtic pools and informing me that supporting them would help fund the development of Lennoxtown and the on-going work there.
Does anyone know if we’re using such telesales?
Alfie@ 03.13
Either you were looking in the wrong corner, your eyesight is failing, or you are a very generous judge of ages.
Anyways, whatever wee kernel of truth is included in your political posts is lost amongst the overwhelming personal venom.
If you do doorstep campaigning like you post on here, you would have a permanently sore face (please do not try to twist that into a threat).
I am a Labour Party supporter, well aware of the faults of our party’s recent history. You continue to post stuff that loses support for what is supposed to be our joint cause. An SNP Black Flag poster could hardly do a better job.

Good stuff overnight. The events you talk about can be very uncomfortable to read but you write it very well.
Kev Jungle. Why should you be banned as your post as it stands at the moment what you say is the current situation.I am a Rony supporter but I realise there is a lot of football to be played before we will know if we have won the treble or not. H.H.
Good morning
The PFA have come out today in support of sevco’s goalie with regard to his admitted breach of the betting rules .They say there is no need for appeal by compliance officer as he has been punished enough and the appeal will ruin his reputation and prevent him securing a new contract.
Where were the PFA when Tonev was found guilty by a kangaroo court on the balance of probabilities and on the basis of one mans word against another ?Silence.His reputation as a young player has been tarnished far more than a mediocre goalie in the twilight of his career plying his trade in the lower leagues
Travellerbhoy
You must have am amazing book/film inside you. I am the world’s least artistic person but I can imagine your poetic narrative being sounded over a screenplay of your tales. Very Dylan Thomas like.
JK Rowling had a serial on BBC over the last few Sunday nights which had excellent characters and story lines but she may have to eat her heart out at yours.
Best wishes.

Exactly my thoughts , the PFA are a joke .
21 years ago today, The Bunnet arrived. Paid all the tax & bills. Happy Fergus McCann Day.
Amazing how the msm say the two directors llambias and leach are wanting pay offs for the final year of there salary and kings says no way it’s all for self gain . Yet when super Sally and McDowell stay and say they want there final years salary msm and ssb pundits all say they are entitled to to it . McDowell is still manager and Mcoist is getting 17 grand a week to cut his grass laughable
Good Luck to Rony and the bhoys for tonights game which I will miss due to a previously arranged important event. H.H.

It’s snowing again in Slovakia.
I thought we’d seen the end of winter.
Looks like I was wrong.
SFTB:
I have no affiliation to any political party, I feel I can trust individuals – but never a collective – regardless of whichever particular persuasion of the political spectrum they wish to purport.
However, if I did have a particular favourite parcel of rogues, and I was of a nasty mind, and wanted to incite distaste for my own parcel of rogues biggest rivals… I’d don the other team’s colours and be a right obnoxious trumpet. It’s not rocket science or Latin even.
I’ve never known any party worker to be so obnoxious, not even the BNP pavement pounders are so transparently stupid.
murdochbhoy @ 8:15…
Good morning.
I have heard a of a number of such instances. I am sure the call on behalf of Celtic Pools was genuine.
I was in Morrisons this morning and the smell of lamb from the newspaper section was stronger than it was in the meat aisle.

Summers day in the old BUlgarski Snake.-)))
R-mhai,
I had exactly the same thought when I heard that news yesterday evening. Who is the PFA spokesman? Would it be thon Fraser Wishart, well known Celtic supporter???
The report I heard said that Izzi had a hand injury. Any further news? Should Efe stay at left back until Emilio is fit again? Should Wakaso be given a game there? Should either/both Broonie and Joe Hanson be given a rest tonight? Does Bitton wear boots or slippers? Should James Forrest be played tonight? Are there enough questions here to prevent political posts? Where is Jamesgang?

Good luck with that man, neighbour just married a Slovak ghirl, we’re teaching her Bulgarski & English this summer.
Purely for the humour. And maybe the devilment.
The present day. An office telephone rings…
“Hello, thank you for calling the Labour Party. How can I help you?”
“Oh, Hi. I’d like a copy of your General Election manifesto please”
“I’m afraid we’ve sold out Sir”
“Yes, I was aware of that, but can I have a copy of your manifesto anyway?”

As accurate a description as any.
Sadly.
Didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when I read it.

Very funny!

Kudos if you did,
