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.

Mags/DD
are you suggesting that someone on the blog faked a Q and A with TG
—————
Paul67 has already called one poster out for this, either he’s wrong or the poster is
DD, sorry I didn’t realise your mum had had a mishap, I hope she recovers soon.

My mammy at 81 is paying me back for all the worry I put her through as a teenager. Sure we met in Newcastle Irish Centre?
BBC News asking, “What is it with England, Germany and Penalties?”
Well there’s the German’s superior technique. Their stronger mentality.
Loads of obvious stuff really ;)
Delaney’s , that’s really good to hear the fall has not affected her badly.
Her resilience is something else.
Lang may her lum reek
The Huddle,
never seen that,will read back to see what was said,
cant believe someone would do that if it was the case,
Mags/DD,
do you know this for sure or is it just a hunch
TGM
Maryhill Irish upbringing. She fights for her rights till death.
DELANEYSDUNKY

Pog

Page 3, not pretty
Back from Glastonbury. Another fab festival and good weather as well!! Still thought radio head were rubbish (and I am a fan).
Anyway I see Celtic and Brendan have been telling us that we aren’t really looking to buy anyone ahead of the CL qualifiers.
Oh dear.
Nothing changes at Celtic eh? No lessons learned.
If nothing changes isnt that normal so why expect any difference
Neg
I thought Radiohead were brilliant, as were FF.
TGM reckons you were on the hippy crack???
I think Radiohead arent fit to lace Patsy Clynes boots.
Maybe lace her drink mind you
WITS
Patsy Cline and a boatle a wine is Glasgow folklore. :)
Neganon 2
Hope you have cheered up slightly:)
Btw, Radiohead were brilliant.

AAAh Hi Macjay
I finally figured out why you dont believe in global warming. You are still a firm believer in fossil fools.
==============================================================
You`re right , Mags.
But I drew the line at Arthur Scargill.
Ah here we go. The Radiohead clique is taking over
Until the last patsy Clyne !!!
Gordy
Looking forward to seeing Kasabian for first time next week.
Delaneys,
think i would like them more than Radiohead,
just never got into them,although to be fair i never really listened to much of their stuff
Country music is Scottish and Irish.
Hence the fiddles.
Who needs an excuse when you have a reason ?
The inspiration for the Everley Bros.

Dave King says Patsy Cline disnae count:)
HH
Green Man
Dave King, he knows the truth! !!
Radiohead will never do ten Glastonbury festivals in a row, and even they did it wouldn’t count because Elvis is dead
WITS
You realise that Patsy Cline is Glasgow rhyming slang. :))
Think Bolivia, Colombia and Mehico.
Delaneys Dunky glad to hear your mum is fighting back to fitness
I was born in Myrtle Street is that Maryhill?
HH
Gordy
Kasabian are trash rock compared to Radiohead music genius. Depends yer poison. :)
Delaneys
I didn’t know that
WITS
I hear Dave King’s new book, ‘ My Part in My Downfall’ is very thought-provoking.
The first 225 chapters on his early days, Blazers, Bowling clubs, and assorted handshakes, although there is a least two paragraphs on his legendary business acumen, and the last chapter about his previous arrests and court appearances.:)
He also finds room to re-shape capitalism, to his benefit:)

My mammy was born in a single end Shawpark Street Maryhill, sorry G, never heard of Myrtle Street. TGM or Mighty Tim or FGF would know. Hope all well ower the watter darling?
