    Your favourite wee striker was asking today about the strength of this John James guy. A strange one, a mole in both camps, and worryingly got the team spot on yesterday?

    Gene – wise words.

     

     

    JNP – i’ve been before but it was a boozy lads trip about 30 years ago. I’m going with the missus this time more for a day out than anything else. I just remember it was the finest course I’ve ever been to ( I haven’t been to Goodwood).

  3. Folk dreaming on here of the ease of punting Boyata. If anyone bids for Boyata, whether it is 1 million or 10 million, his agent has said he won’t be leaving. He is downing tools and signing a pre-contract in January for an EPL club where he can get 50k a week. He’s not going to get that anywhere else.

     

    So we now have no hope of a transfer fee and a sulking player who is taking a wage while contributing nothing.

    I cant imagine that Boyata could legally down tools and still receive a wage?

     

    That would seem perversely unjust but i have no idea of UK employment law.

     

    As many on here are quick to laud our board on their business acumen i am sure they had the foresight and experience to foresee such circumstances.

  5. FAN-A-TIC – he already did it this weekend. Just makes up stories about imaginary aches and pains. Sore back, tight hamstrings etc,

     

    His agent has already said Boyata has no interest in playing afterr the Fulham bid was punted. I would bet he will soon be be told to report for training each day with the kids and we will never see him in a Celtic jersey again.

    I remember the chant for Willie Johnston after Argentina 78.

     

    “You’ve got Junky,Junky Junky Junky Johnston on the wing.” He got hit by a syringe fae the Jungle. All good fun.

  7. delaneys dunky. that jhonston used to frighten me when we played thems im loathe to say it but he was dangerous against us. hated him playing .hh.

  8. Auldheid @ 9:36 pm,

     

     

    Yes, it has gotten to the point where DD has to get involved and support both his CEO and Manager. Both highly talented guys in their own field and both great assets to Celtic.

     

     

    For all I said in the last post I hope it doesn’t come to personalities… I’m hoping the Board were just a bit blinkered in their attitude to these transfers… a “no brainer” type of approach that led to bad communications between the business and football sides…

     

     

    After all – It’s good to talk.

     

     

    Read the articles you linked earlier… very interesting pieces.

     

     

    Hail Hail

    Thanks for the endorsement. I love TSOAL. Bumped into the big eejit in toon last week. Made my day.

    Sunday night teaser.

     

     

    Why are Celtic so bad at set pieces? Corners, free kicks (cross or shot) are abysmal.

     

     

    When did we last score from a corner or a free kick?

     

     

    ———–

     

     

    Think it was Boyata at Tynecastle in May. Was thinking about this yesterday.

  11. Gerryfaethebrig on

    He used to be a hun but he’s alright now Alfie, Alfie… he used to be a hun but he’s alright now Alfie, Alfie Conn

     

     

    A really decent guy as well :-)

  12. Delaneys Dunky on

    GFTB

     

    I love Alfie Conn. Got to know him when he was running Jarvies Yoker. Great bloke.

     

    Used to be a hun but he’s awrite now.

     

    Alfie, Alfie Conn.

  13. Just saw Sportscene on Catch up

     

     

    What about the state of that Livi pitch? Check out the pic of the livi boy with bits of rubber plastered all over his coupon after he hit the deck.

     

     

    We don’t have to play there until October but that was worse than Hamilton.

     

     

    We now have 3 artificial pitches in our top flight.

  14. Gerryfaethebrig on

    DD 11.32pm

     

     

    Met Alfie as a daft 16yr old he took Coatbridg CC for training (I only hit a sub jersey as my 2 big brothers played for them) that’s where I met Jamie & Alan, wee Durrantys big brothers … Alfie Conn made that ameuter train like professionals as a wee bhoy it was magic :-)

  15. Gerryfaethebrig on

    SFTB 11.38pm

     

     

    Those parks should be nowhere near the top flight of any country …

     

     

    Artificial surface = artificial football

     

     

    I know Celtic have a new surface but at least grass is involved

  16. garygillespieshamstring on

    Just saw your comment abo ut SOAL

     

     

    WG was a mate of his from wisha w and I just wondered if you might have known him. Don’t think he has posted for a long time

  17. Gerryfaethebrig on

    Apologies for my indulgence but since it’s now the 13/08/2018…

     

     

    I hope my lovely Sevconian wife has a terrific 50th birthday (yip, I found that handsome hun(ey)

     

     

    Happy 26th birthday to my godson who is also MissGFTBs godfather

     

     

    And last but by no means least many happy hoppy returns to Lennybhoy from this dear place ?

     

     

    Hail Hail

  18. Boyata was never going to sign a new deal, should have been up for sale at the end of last season.

  19. Gerryfaethebrig on

    Bada Bing

     

     

    Would you play Boyata on Tuesday ?

     

     

    If we can negotiate a possible 3 games £9m is pennies…. by the way if Boyata doesn’t want to play with Celtic show him the door but when Celtic are still paying his wages we should play him if BR thinks we need him

  20. Celtic could have signed JMcG in January.

     

     

    FFS the guy would be a fekin Celtic legend.

     

     

     

    I am PLs biggest fan but getting personal with Petrie is beneath a Celtic CEO surely?

     

     

    Losing a game of Poker against a man who hates us??

     

     

     

    Big Peter doesn’t make too many mistakes but this has put a lot of CFC fans in a downer.

     

     

    Anyway we need a striker badly ( Griff is going on loan ) a RB and 2 CHs.

  21. Deary me , sick to the back teeth of reading on here about ,5 ft 8 thug Naismith . 5 ft 8 for gods sake . Used to be the same with lasley at the mothers , another 5ft odd hammer thrower the wee guy at Aberdeen another giant at 5 ft 8 , now the scouser has the man to sort broonie , 5 ft 9 enforcer coulibaye. They giants of the game have our players soiling there kegs, would make you sick . Said it often , and it seems lots more of the posters on here, are now seeing we are a team of softies . Yesterday as before down Georgie rd we were bullied all over the park . They hacked and kicked our boys with ease , no retaliation , no get into them, just acceptance of what was going on . What made it worse was Naismith hovering over one of our players kicking lumps out of him , and not a team mate in sight to save the guy . That is what’s wrong with our team , they all know now how to play us . Oh for a mark reaper . Paul Elliot . Davy hay . or half a dozen from the Seville team .

    Celtic matched Villas price do we (Celtic) pay a player £20k who doesn’t start before Scott, Oliver or Thomas ?

     

     

    McGinn choose Villa, hope the bhoy does well … but he has had his chance

     

     

    Like the Sevs … move on :-)

     

     

    I don’t blame John McGinn but as a Celtic fan I would have put Celtic before the Villians what’s £8k @ week when you only earn £19k in 52 weeks

     

     

    Thank goodness my Celtic experience / life is about money :-)

  23. Great news that Moussa might be making the game on Tuesday. We definitely need the 3 French Bhoys out on the pitch at this testing time.

     

     

    As for Boyata, what he has done to his Manager, who has supported him fully, is despicable. There is no way back for him @ Celtic.

     

     

    Get whatever fee we can for this charlatan.

    Just about to hit the pillow

     

     

    But it now feels like a new emotion

     

     

    Got a feeling we will do the Greeks

    The Saltcoats Metroplolis has a place in my heart, along with the jungle

     

     

    I sound like ma Da… the 80s & 90s were only good because we only remember the good bits (& pieces)

  27. The Greek small gods are rising up – enemies of God. They will be destroyed once and for all, soon enough,well putin to Hell for Eternity.

     

     

    We are all just observers of the most awesome Cosmic Battle – It’s not a Battle. The Battle is won.

     

     

    If any part of the Word can be said to be a lie.

     

     

    So many would try to do that. Sad.

     

     

    It’d be a battle not against Flesh or Blood.

     

     

    Ultrasonic

     

     

    Celtic when the Triangle sh!t was announced. I knew the Worship to the small gods.

     

     

    We will win the Title Forever…. Never Losing it.

     

     

    Who is paying for everything?

     

     

    This Arrogance is not the Celtic I know.

     

     

    Really terrible leaders lately.

  28. Gerryfaethebrig,

     

     

    I’d not been to the Metro for a while. The Jellies killed the place.

     

     

    I was asked to go and fight a guy running about with 2 knifes in the car park. Nah. Game over when that happened. The smarmy drug dealer left so many girls outside at the mercy of a rocket. No Wonder the mini bus driver tried to go – we stopped him.

     

     

    So many good memories from the Metro, that will be the lasting one. Unfortunately.
