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.

Severe sense of humour bypass on CQN recently.
People getting really upset because posters are discussing politics.
Seriously, get a life.
There is always the BBC or Radio Scotland, or the Daily Record if you prefer.

Good evening.
In your post you claim that
‘We are faced with a PSNI which don’t want any Celtic fans and who pushed for the Friday 5pm KO’
Do you have anything to support your assertion mate?
My understanding is that both the PSNI and Linfield have absolutely no problem with Celtic taking our allocation of tickets.
The Green Man says SACK THE Board on 27th June 2017 4:37 pm – I am well aware of the purposes of a blog, but if people want have personal gripes with each other, take it off line. I am all up for constructive debating and everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Indecently, I do read the Celtic View every week, have done so since my father bought me my first ten pence copy in 1986 which if my memory serves me correctly had a rather interesting piece on our European trip to Kiev, including what was provided in the food hamper. You should try reading it, you might learn something…………

Bloggers proving their assertions with back up facts
It will never catch on :)

God loves a trier amigo :-)
I hope you’re well.
I agree with Dave King. Celtic aren’t on six in a row.
I make it 18.
Green Brigade and Celtic Trust
Phhhffftttttttt never saw that coming, being that they are not in bed together as we keep getting told?
PS and they will still deny it, chancers.
If the tickets are easy to get from Linfield, good! Go get them, CFC right now are taking nothing to do with them, you trust Linfield FC before CFC? Then go for it,everyone on the CFC board was voted in unposed at the last AGM to run the club to the best of they’r ability, unless I missed it, I didn’t hear that the Celtic Trust and the Green Brigade had to be spoken to on every decision that the board was to make?
So hang up the combat jackets put the berets back in the cupboard pop on a Dylan CD and crack wan up, an give us piece ffs.
I am good thanks – looking forward to tomorrow – I understand you had a few sherbets at the weekend
Germany v England U21 about to start on Sky Sports 1, you’ve missed the anthems already
If the `strap` still existed in schools, would we now only get `two of the best` ?
Cambhoy
I very much doubt that the Celtic View could teach me anything.
Ive no personal gripes with anyone on CQN. Yes, i might challenge Tory lies and nonsense from time to time, thats about it.

HOT SMOKED
Was it you who asked me a couple of weeks back if I lived near Stonehaven?
I’d said I was going up for the beer festival.
I missed your post by a couple of days.
Anyway, naw, Bo.ness!

Ya auld rebel:)
HH

England/germany u21, followed by Spain/Italy, and then Toronto/montreal in the Canadian Championships tonight …
would be a great day of footbally watching, if this work thing didn’t keep getting in the way
If James Joyce himself penned an article for CQN
Certain posters would complain that he uses too many words:)

BIGBHOY @ 3.16,
Best post of the week.
Every so often someone will make a similar post to bring most of us back to conducting ourselves as befits this hallowed site. Thank you.
LEFTCLICKTIC
Just brilliant!
Thanks!
Leftie
Thank you my friend, you know why!!

If he wrote it in Finnegan’s Wake style it would still make more sense than a lot of what is posted these days.

…were to post on CQN, I suspect the complaints would be spondiferouslypluralitious concernabouting the deliberperversity of ofuscualryconfusing words used, rather than the sheersteepling numerosuperfluity of them. Riverdance. If JJ were to post…..

Id much prefer Joyce:)
Its like Blazing Saddles on CQN at the moment.

Rhetorical
Still makes more sense than Mr Pastry and friends:)

Germany looking more likely at the moment
The religious right wing loonies on this site are always at their worst when there is no footy on.
Utterly depressing and sadly predictable.
I can’t state what I really want to, it will only be deleted.
Roll on the start of the season, back to lurking.
And Germany score
1 nil Germany. England started better, could’ve/should’ve scored a couple but then Germany took control.
I hate to put a fly in the ointment but there is absolutely no chance of Linfield selling tickets directly to the Celtic support. It is against UEFA regulations for the CL.
* 37.03 The home club may reallocate tickets returned or not requested by the visiting club provided that all safety and security measures (as mentioned in the UEFA Safety and Security Regulations) are respected and that such tickets are not reallocated to supporters of the visiting club.
