A week into preseason Celtic play their first 90 minutes of the campaign tomorrow afternoon away to Linz in Austria. It will be great to see the team play (CelticTV) but tomorrow is all about getting the legs moving without injury. Thereafter expectations will ramp up quickly.
‘News’ that Nadir Ciftci has been told he can find a new club will have shocked you, I know. You and I had many opportunities to watch Nadir at Dundee United, while Ronny Deila considered his purchase. The player’s languid interpretation of the game made him a surprising signing at the time.
Maybe Ronny knows something we don’t? Was the hope. He didn’t. It was a rank bad signing, one of several strikers acquired during Ronny’s tenure who didn’t look like Celtic players on paper and looked even less equipped in hoops.
Ronny, of course, did try to sign Moussa Dembele in January 2016, so it would be wrong to conclude he had a blind spot for strikers, but you will struggle to name some who ‘passed through Parkhead’s gates’ in recent seasons.
I only caught up with Dave King’s ramblings yesterday evening. He fancies Newco to reach 10-in-a-row before Celtic do so. They stand a far better chance if we leave Scottish football. Remember when Charles Green promised Newco would never compete in the Scottish Premier League, knowing fine well the league were committed to an imminent rebrand? Not laughing so much now, are you?
Celtic are always looking at this, always working on one or other strategy.

If Brexit IS a disaster , you might end up with a wee influx of Saxons of Anglo persuasion .
Have you thought of that ?

The Maryhill Fleet ran Byres Road along wi the Angels. It was mental when you think back to the 70/80s.

Thank you.
That was just for you. You are one of the posters that I really admire.
I also enjoyed stretching my memory, even though I left that area 64 years ago!
God Bless.

I was 15. Would you have battered lumps out of Jack Glass and his huns and batter their motors wi bricks and rocks like we did at Saint Tams?

Well done St Tams:)

Brexit is a disaster ,,,no ifs
Except it might never happen
And why would the Anglo’s want to come here to Erins green valley when they live a prosperous country
and anyway if they do come ,,so what,they are welcome
Gods Children and all that
Whats wrong with people moving countries to settle
You surely cant disagree with the concept
Give up the Oul Fox News nonsense and the Alt Right websites and come out from under the blankets
Its actually grand

25 million Americans are about to lose their healthcare. Many are condemned to death. They are just a bunch of whiny bad losers. I guess it depends on what kind of society you want. One that embraces the future or one that wants to live in the past and will kill to keep it. Even education doesnt seem to help. I’m now convinced people are totally Pavlovian they need to experience poverty to understand whats going on.

=======================================================
The concept is beautiful.
The proviso.
What is their intention ?
People who wish to come to a country with evil intent must be prevented.
You know that has and is happening.
ISIS have warned that is their intent.
People who come to a country seeking to impose cultures which are an affront to decency must be prevented .
You know the primitive practices I am speaking of. I don`t need to repeat them.
People who come to your country with the sole intention of converting the inhabitants to their religion and to their primitive practices.
That is precisely what the Quran insists that a Muslim must do.
Literally.
And it is taken literally.
And put into practice.
Now ,of course not all Muslims do that.
So there should never be a blanket ban on people of that faith .
But how do you monitor people who arrive illegally ?
What is the status of women in Muslim majority countries ?
Unacceptable. That`s what.

Anarchy looks the solution.

USA needed a health service ( British style `49 ) and didn`t get one.
Don`t blame Trump.
He`s just doing what he promised the electorate he would do.
A novel concept , I know.

You canny blame Trump or May for selling their souls for pay by Rothschild Mob.

Dena Myrtle street was indeed in Maryhill. We would have been neighbours as I was born in oakbank hospital and lived in Barr street. Neighbouring streets were Cedar street Callander street Raglan street myrtle street and hopehill rd. These ran between garscube rd and Maryhill rd at At Georges Cross. I left there and moved to new houses at lochburn just up from gairbraid avenue. So your a wee Maryhill lass.

yeah thats what they voted for. Phillistine!
He promised the electorate he wouldnt touch medicaid(The lower part of the 2 tier US healthcare system covered by taxes). He is going to gut it. The vote was postponed today because even 5 republican senators couldnt bring themselves to vote for it.
He also promised that the US would dump NATO (lie), build a wall (lie) and other lies.
Right wing fascism yippe kay eh!
As an immigrant you should know better but then again Australia is quite white.

Glad you never went to Saint Tams.
We couldnae carry passengers in our war against West End Huns who hated and battled with us. Knightswood, Victoria Drive, Hyndland and Hillhead schools surrounded us. Saint Tams Bhoys ran the lot of them. Undefeated still.
