OK, I’ll admit it, when I heard Ryan Christie put Aberdeen two up last night, I had a sense of wellbeing. When I saw video of their first goal, I laughed more than I thought possible at physical comedy.
But it was the guy who, with his team losing, thought, “I’ve had enough of this crap, I’ll going to steal the ball and run away” who really set me off the edge. God knows Celtic fans have done stupid things over the years, but can you imagine being so disengaged with your team that you’d prefer to steal a ball than get it back onto the field to effect a comeback?
If fans start pinching things that aren’t nailed down at Ibrox they’d better step up the property maintenance work sharpish.
What last night’s result means is that Partick Thistle have a role to play in Football History over the next few days. If Celtic overcome them tonight, but Aberdeen fail to do so on Sunday, Celtic could break the widest winning margin world record.
What is of more immediate concern is maintaining our undefeated run on our third last game of the season. Thistle have an excellent record at Celtic Park this season, drawing 1-1 and losing 1-0. Celtic won more convincingly on our previous visit to Firhill, but we’ll need to hit that standard again to get the desired result.
I’ve been blown away with the support for my marathon run on Sunday in aid of the Celtic Foundation. Thank you to each person who has got in touch or donated to the MyDonate site (here).
Clearly donations help the Foundation, but having done the half marathon last year, I know they put fuel in the legs when I’ve had enough. I’m going to read through the donations list before I go to bed on Saturday, it will get my head straight and be more useful than energy gels. Thank you.

Can’t believe I’m heading out to the pub to watch a game in mid-May that will count towards a couple of incredible records, including a world record.
Some season, some team, getitng pre-cup final-esque butterflies again. Like I will on Sunday. Like I will genuinely a week on Saturday.
COYBIG, finish them off early tonight.

Struggling to find a tune to fit the first-draft lyrics, ‘Yer just baw-nickin’, sheep-surrenderin’, racist and gullible orange b######s.’
Will consult with Sir Lloyd-Webber.
WEE GEORGES FAN CLUB ..are you on yet.???????????????????
I don’t know what team Brendan will pick for tonight , but I think our captain will lead the team , back from holiday , back in the side , back leading by example :-) …… Song for Broonie ( to the Oasis ” Roll with it ” tune ) Our Captain is Scott Brown , he never lets us down , he’s our great number eight , handed Barton his fat ass on a plate , and it’s all too much for the Huns to take…. You’ll never stare him down , just ask Diouf the clown , he’s our great number eight , handed Barton his fat ass on a plate , and it’s all too much for the Huns to take…….. Now let’s all laugh at Rangers cos they died….. But Sevco keeps the comedy alive…….. Our Captain is Scott Brown …………..

Rangers invite Indian & Chinese film makers to Ibrox, all expenses paid, give them the VIP treatment ….
Does this mean that they will be provided with accommodation in the newly bolted together Shipping Container Hotel?
Any suggestions fora link to tonights game welcome, thanks in advance.

The Bollywood idea is really good ,they could tell the story of a young man who was a pioneer ,who played in bandages not boots and who , when old and thought forgotten received a cheque from his former club to help him in his difficult times , they would have to rewrite history though , changing the name of the club etc ……. but no problems doing that for them eh?
Good evening all. Hope we’re all feeling just Champion?

Off to Lisbon tomorrow. Holiday in Cascais. Will be at National Stadium on the day.
Will be my fourth visit to scene of our triumph.
Hello this is WEE BGFC. Hi Favourite Uncle!!! Am on. Me and Da just shooting off to the game. There was a disaster last Friday though. We had plans to go up to Aberdeen for the game and stay over night but we had to go to a party! :0 :( Had to miss the Hundredth point because my aunt was inconsiderate enough to be 50. AAh well, game tonight.
MON THE HOOPS
RIP LFT

RB. Have holiday in Estoril and Cascais. Both a great holiday resorts, though you may see more fishing boats in Cascais. Might see you in Lisbon.
Daily Ranger pushing Sevco season tickets again = lying king says all money on squad….fool me once etc
If you have a virus guard it will stop anything incoming, cricfree is where you want to be, if you have an add blocker, recommended btw, you will have to use one of the other streams as opposed to the cricfree ones, I’m sure you will suss it out, if a numpty like me can
Hello this is WEE BGFC. Will be posting on Da’s phone in the car

MIT-:-)))
Been doing this in advance of the last few games so might as well keep the updates going; the incentives to keep on keeping on….
Our best ever achievements in the top flight have been –
103 points (2001-02) – we’re currently on 100 so need to win 1 out of the 2 to equal that. But a win and a draw would give us a new record.
105 goals (2003-04) – we’re currently on 99 so need another 7. 2 tonight and 5 on Sunday would be just fine!
33 wins in a season (2001-02) – so far we’ve won 32 of our 36 games so need to win both remaining games for a new PB.
32 game unbeaten run (2003-04) – we’ve already beaten that one as we’re currently unbeaten after 36.
Fewest defeats in a season – 1 (2001-02) – I think we are all aware that we are now just 2 games away from a new , invincible, record.
Finally, there’s also the possibility of reclaiming a previously held European record. In 2013-14 Celtic won the league by 29 points. However, last year a new record was set when Paris Saint-Germain finished 31 points clear. Currently we are 27 ahead of Aberdeen with a game in hand. We need them to drop something in their final game. If they lose against Partick we’d need 4 points from the final 6. If they draw against Partick we’d need to win both our games. We can only try to do our bit and hope that Partick get something on Sunday.
Phew………
Wee BGFC
Part timer ,, did you have TV on at the party on Friday?☘️☘️☘️
MIT – I will attempt to post from Lisbon depending on the nick I’m in. My good friend ACGR has lined up quite a few delights for the Sclaffbaw players, no stone has been left unturned apart from a couple of buggies that apparently I’m supposed to organize.
I’ll be there Sunday and I’m heading up to Fatima to visit the shrine, go to mass and confession; I like to work with a clean slate on holiday:)
TAL – Is traveling with me en route but I think he’s doing the Fatima trip with BMCUWP later in the week; they’re gona need a big Kerry oot.
Off now to the Toronto CSC to watch the bhoys and pick up some golf prizes for me and ACGR cause we might win but it’s no a SFA (fix).

THE EXILED TIM Don’t know why you think that mate , that’s not my experience , internet explorer , adbloock and nice juicy links for me , Hail Hail enjoy the game :-)
CONNIE. Thanks. Have holidayed in Cascais before. Is relatively quiet. Only one ‘English’ pub as I recall. Lots of walking opportunities. Lots of cafes and restaurants to choose from.
Summa – thanks for that, my Night shift sleep deprived brain missed that when scrolling the schedule earlier.

On the road again with the world famous Tommy Gemmell CSC…
Was speaking to the Bhoys from Greenock who have kindly added another artist to our own very special Celtic cabaret for our In The Heat of Lisbon party next Friday 26 May.
So we’ll finish up as we enter Cup Final day with some Songs of Freedom!
We’ll have a coal lorry, the European Cup and a posse of Lions and you can get on the back with them to get your photograph taken exactly 50 years to the day since they brought the Big Cup back.
Geo will be doing the pics and we will get a print to you at cost price. Put it in a wee frame and you will love it!
Get your tickets for what is going to be an unforgettable night – when we, the Celtic support will say THANK YOU to our Lions.
If you can’t make it buy a raffle ticket for the Lisbon Celtic shirt all the Lions signed, the last one Tommy signed sadly.
