You and I have been doing this long enough to remember this place in meltdown at the prospect of Celtic signing a player from another SPL club. Domestically sourced talent was regarded as unimaginative, cheap, even. Contrast this with the utter joy when we signed Koki Mizuno, who was full-on exotic, but built for finer things then competitive football.
At 29, Aberdeen’s Irish international midfielder, Jonny Hayes is certainly unimaginative, and may be comparatively cheap, but he’s also a low-risk option for Celtic, who will know what they could get (and what they will not get) from the player.
With Patrick Roberts due to report to Manchester City on his return from holiday, Celtic are short of options for right-mid, with the first Champions League qualifier only five weeks away. The manager will view this gap in his squad as an unnecessary risk to next season’s objectives.

As I recall the late Paddy Sweeney wouldn’t allow football colours on his buses when they were travelling through Ayrshire.

So idiocy is OK then?
Seriously, people need to get a sense of proportion and perspective.

Look after yourself Voldemort and drop me a text if you get back down from a text if you get back down from Mijas.

And as for the 2nd theme- “don’t let them into the country”- the vast majority of these acts have been committed by persons born into the country in which they committed the acts.
*Allegedly the Koran states that no harm should be brought to a country that provides you with sanctuary, it’s about time they taught their weans that.

After reading and hearing the story of the cop who was overpowered by the 3 radicalised terrorists who were attacking indiscriminately innocents with only his baton as defence I think now, with a very heavy heart, it is time that our Police officers carried side arms. That said I would also add that thereafter the Police and all those joining are more thoroughly scrutinised and Policed themselves.
Arming you and I or even giving us the right legally to bare arms will be more dangerous to every single one of us in the long run. As an example think of those who you know who have previously been attacked indiscriminately in the past and if the weapons they held had been different what the outcome would have been.
Scary buddy.
And then add to that the profit and smiles you’d be putting on the faces of the munitions companies. Companies who are all partly to blame along with our governments for the blood on our streets and the masses of more blood on the streets, homes, hospitals, schools of foreign countries.
If there comes a day I am ever in the unlikely event faced by a few drugged up radical extremists I will be directing my anger at our own government and leaders and those who radicalise stupid wee boys before they become the men who’d understand what they are told is wrong.
Our politians and their secret services who allow these known individuals to roam are as much holding the weapons as those who use them.

Almore and what is the stars , thank you for your replies.
Almore , that s very reassuring . I have my concerns regarding Junior going but he has heard he talking about my trips to Ireland and other places to see our team , he wants a bit of it himself and I can’t blame him.
I support you cafe idea even more now.
What is the Stars , that is a very generous offer , thank you.
I know some of the guys on the bus he hopes to go on so he should be ok .
I appreciate your kindness , no more WITS out from me LOL

Watching Palmeiras v Atletico Mineiro game on BT.Atletico subbed Robinho and replaced him with King Louis xiii of France.He’s not done much so far but looks dandy. ;)
WHAT IS THE STARS on 4TH JUNE 2017 8:59 PM
Dallas.
Is your lad coming to Dublin for the shamrock rovers game. He should be fine of course but if it made you or your wife feel any better I could give you my number and you could tell him to give me a call if anything went wrong and he needed any help.

Gentleman.

Ernie, ive not seen any idiocy.
Ive seen posters showing concern, and i dont blame them.
Proportion and perspective, that wont be a problem, we can discuss the issues.
However, I dont think winding each other up helps.

What do you mean by ‘roam’.
Do you mean walk about the street?
Or do you mean travel to a war zone and then re enter the UK unchallenged?
PHILBHOY
Ignore the silly wee man. I called him out years ago and his stock response is to answer a question with a question. A very predicable type.
I’m enjoying the music from Manchester, hope trumps fear . All power to the youth of this country.
Chris Martin is a far better singer than a fitballer …..
Night night to all

Innocent people have had to unsuccessfully face down guns and knives in this country in the last few weeks.
They are now dead and their families are suffering untold grief and the consequencies of the actions of these murderers.
Please God if some lunatic tries to murder my family and me can I at least be blessed with an outside chance of killing him or her before he or she kills me and my family.
Or should we just role over and take it, without a fight?
I know my choice.

I am not into music but having been watching this, brilliant the am out of kids at it, when my daughter was born the first song I heard on way home from Wishaw hospital was Viva la Vida
Beautiful
I believe in angels….
One Wan Kinobe Corbyn…
will,……
stop WW3….
set Scotland and Wales free…
from the butchers apron…
educate and, reform England….
so that they won’t repeat the…
invaders, crooks and bullies rhetoric….
which has left an indelible stain….
in almost every corner of the world….
he has said on Russia Today news that….
“If, the folk in Ireland want to vote for a, united Ireland then, they should be allowed to do so.”
said Jeremy Corbyn.
Sinn Fein supremo, Gerry Adams said the other day….
“Jeremy Corbyn is on the right side of history.”
One man can make the world….
a more, peaceful safer place….
Jeremy Corbyn is that man.
…….off-oot.
JMCCORMICK
Loving the music too!
And the hope it give’s to everyone in this country that we need to face down the fear and uncertainty
these evil bastards are trying to introduce or reinforce in our midst.
Please God help us to overcome.
So what’s the surprise finale at One Manchester? Liam? Noel? Both?
HRVATSKI JIM on 3RD JUNE 2017 10:14 PM
Sergio Ramos must be a good candidate to sign for Sevco in 10 years time.
*and while they are waiting for him brutal and penas will kick with impunity and not just the ball either. I thought the ref was really good although I felt Dybala’s booking was a bit soft, as for the red card, well the laws of the game state you can’t deliberately touch another player, except in the best wee bigoted country in the world.
I’ve said on here before IMHO the most cynical and yet talented players out there are Latino and Portuguese, even with their sleekit wee smiles, we found that out to our costs in Seville. Better get the Kevlar on next season as stockley will be like Cinderella compared tae the likes of who their bringing in, shades of Racing Club.

Paddy Roberts singing “The Celtic Song”!
Ernie you make a good point. I hate the pish that comes with travelling but accept it. What is the point if people are allowed in and out without a second glance… Or am I not being paranoid enough.
Jimmynotpaul, I bumped into Tony on Friday afternoon . He told me about his first stint on tv for today’s game.
I said to him he would probably be working with Alba’s main presenter, Alex O’Hanley , who is good at his job and is a good ghuy
I watched a wee bit of it earlier, I recorded it, Tony came over quite well.
The Hippo was on facebook the other night , I left a message to let him know there would be a pleasant surprise for him if he watched the Junior cup final.

Did you ask the same question after Dunblane buddy?

Thanks for the info.

Disappointed in you.

These people will be monitored but until they commit a crime the authorities are a bit hamstrung.
Control orders wouldn’t be allowed, nor would internment.
Dallas:
The bus leaves the ferry(Belfast) joins the motorway and is a continous journey to Dublin. There is no misson your son and others come near any dodgy areas.
Putting your mind at rest CSC.

MOONBEAMSWD on 4TH JUNE 2017 9:49 PM
So are you in favour of internment?
Great if you get all the bad guys, and only the bad guys. And don’t create any more bad guys in the process.
None of which is very likely.
Dallas: Tiocfaidh ár gCafé:-)
Was one of the Gallagher Brothers (Oasis) at the 6-2 game?
Emdy?
Dallas.
Let’s hope Celtic T.V sign Tony up when he’s finished his managerial career. He’d be better than Gerry McCulloch. :-)))
I hope The Hippos doing well, I’ve lost touch with him in the past few years.
Gary 67.
Let’s hope that true about Paddy, Incidentally through Paul The Tims Twitter feed, I ended up in a Man City site, they want to keep Paddy.
Night all.
Enjoy.
