Have no part of Ibrox farce

305

A constituency within Newco had enough of Celtic fans turning Ibrox into a party venue.  They decided an arrangement, that has been in place when Celtic visit Ibrox for longer than the host club has been in existence, had to stop, and convinced Newco to do their bidding.  Celtic were offered 700 tickets, an arrangement they reciprocated.

This is a farce, it is inherently unsafe, it incurs disproportionate police costs and Celtic should have no part of it.  Tell them the normal allocation of 7,500 tickets for visiting fans should be issued, or there should be no visiting fans whatsoever.

Celtic have an open invitiation to accomodate 7,500 fans or to reciprocate at a lower number.  In effect, this is a passive stance, ceeding the decision to one of Newco’s pressure groups.  It is time to take control, either there should be no visiting fans or a safe and appropriate number.  We cannot allow Scottish football to be ragdoll-ed by an angry fringe any longer.  I would be happy if we never saw them inside Celtic Park again.

    St. Stivs: I can’t see people of a nationalist persuasion accepting any connection with the British monarchy or government as part of any long term settlement.

     

     

    However, I think people would accept that those of a Unionist persuasion could openly identify as being British, without prejudice, like holding a British passport for example.

  2. The Spanish Press reported that the new stadium, which will be a multipurpose facility for concerts, commercial events and restaurant spaces, is expected to generate over €1 billion per year.

    If this holds and City drop points to a resurgent Newcastle on Sunday, they will finish with nothing to show for the season.

    Maybe City will get Neil Lennon in, as he’s doing so well in Cyprus

    It’s projected 5 days or so in hospital and a couple of weeks recovering at home. So not too bad but at 60 estimating things is never so straight forward.

     

     

    I thought I had timed things perfectly to the end of the season but the surgeon felt it better to bring it forward…..so I wasn’t going to argue.

     

     

    Hopefully all will be good after. Really looking forward positively to recovery and getting out cycling in the hills again and a summer of chill with no CL qualifiers and that music at Paradise to look forward to come September.

     

     

    Thanks for your good wishes.

    As someone who has had my own health issues over the last 5 years..

     

    I wish you well with your surgery and hope you recover quickly

  8. Amazing match.Madrid deserve this for the tournament,and fightbacks they have had.

  9. No, this ref is way way worse than any shortbread ref, he’s Italian and the brown envelopes are fatter, there’s yer answer, at least the sectarianland refs do it for their team and way less money, a stint on the speaking circut, a few extra shots at the goat, that’s their lot.

    I have no time for the invidious owners of City, but I do feel sympathy for Gardiola. He seems like a very decent man. Losing 2 goals in the 90th minute is a crushing blow.
