We have one league game, home to Motherwell, before facing Borussia Monchengladbach two weeks tonight, but there is a lot of football to be played before then for many in the squad.
Kolo Toure, Scott Brown and Scott Sinclair will be able to invest some time in building a training base, but the rest of the likely starters will face World Cup qualifiers with their various national teams. We have 18 players away in total and can only hope they return fit and ready.
Motherwell have experienced how difficult Celtic Park can be already this season, so on paper the forthcoming game doesn’t look too pressing, however, things ramp up for Celtic thereafter. The next five games have us home and away to Gladbach, at Hampden for the League Cup semi, and away to Ross County and Aberdeen.
A schedule like this illuminates the wisdom in Scott Brown retiring from international football. Kenny Dalglish, a player who always played for Scotland – apart from when national team manager Willie Ormand dropped him when he was about to eclipse a Rangers player’s run of 44 consecutive caps – believes Scott will regret retiring from international football.
Kenny did it all on the park, and harboured no bitterness at his SFA snub, so it’s harsh to dismiss his view out of hand. But he’s wrong on this one. Mikael Lustig should take note.

Margaret McGill 10.56 yesterday.
Sorry Margaret but the Zaire player ran out of his defensive wall in 1974 in Zaire’s second match which was v Brazil not Scotland .
HH
By all accounts he’s still running ?

“Alex Jones is Bill Hicks. ”
What? The Lassie fae The One Show?
Bill Hicks has scrubbed up nice- had Frank Lampard as a boyfriend too
SETTINGFREETHEBEARS
Wrong Welsh TV presenter of The One Show.
She’s MkII,the one who married Lampard is MkI
Easy mistake,mind!
SFTB…
I’m sure if we wait long enough the internet will inform us that the Welsh rerr bit from the One Show is,indeed,Bill Hicks.And most likely a lizard too. ;))
Although we can’t wait too long,the end times are near.

OK, maybe “duty bound” is the wrong term; but I cannot see Barton settling for anything greater than a slap on the wrist (2 to 4 games) and if it is more, he will want to appeal. Probity (I know, I know) should dictate that if the player wants to appeal and excessive sentence the Club (sic) and Players Union would support him.
Any other action from them could be seen as treating him differently from other players.

My friends in Celtic,
Is there a spelling clique on CQN. ( Not the Spookys type ) ?
I really hope so , my gast is flabbered by the amount of posters that cannot spell the name of King Kenny Dalglish correctly. Or our ex manager for that matter Ronny ” the roar ” Delia.
Indeed , everyday is a skool day.

There is an agreement in place between the Turf Accountants association (dunno what i’s called) and footballing authorities that makes it incumbent upon the bookies to report any suspected breaches to the footballing authorities and *apparently* this was the vehicle for the report.
However, I suspect that you may be right insofar as a secondary method of reporting may have helped it along.
I like the use of the term dobbed; it leads to thinking of the acronym dob and the adjective/noun dobber; both of which can be effusively applied to all things relating to The Rangers.

Who’s this Delia you’re on about?Is she related to our last boss,Ronnie Deila? ;))
Paddy and billy die,moments later they are both outside the pearly gates and St.Peter approaches.He asks Paddy a few questions about his previous life and finds out about Paddy’s undying love for Celtic and how caring he is towards other folk.Come in Paddy where you all find a welcome.Then St.Peter edges Billy’s way and asks similar questions.Right said St.Peter to enter through the gates I have a task for you to perform,billy gets all excited.St. Peter points to a blue area and tells billy,that’s Lough ness,here is a spoon go and empty the lough or,pointing to a green spot that is Ibrox park go down and make the team who play there win the European cup,the European cup that Celtic won.Billy looks at the job handed him and replies’can I have the spoon please’.

That was deliberate, right?
Paul67 started it with this article’s headline!

Beat hoy et al,
Depending on how Ronny spells his name there a a rumour that there is a vacancy on channel 4 for some cook or other.

KevJ, i hope all is well with you.
Matt also made the Souness sent off t shirts which were a copy of a newspaper headline from Souness’ debut against Hibs when he inflicted a deep gash in George McLuskey’s knee resulting in Souness walking.
Matt did a simiiar t shirt the follwing year when Souness was sent off against us, a second yellow, fouling Billy Stark who only had one boot on at the time.
I got to know Matt when I started drinking in Heraghty’s in the mid eighties. I occasionally see him going to our home games with his youngest son.

Sincere apologies for the missing “B” , that was not deliberate.
Now who’s the silly one.?

Wrong. Answer is obviously ‘automobile’.

Just reading the posts re KKD being dropped from Scotland. Jeez! Jinky got 23 caps and Bobby Murdoch 13. Insanity fuelled by bigotry. They would rather lose than play a tim.
