Issue 7 of CQN Magazine out now!

786

Issue 7 of CQN Magazine is out now! We continue our campaigning focus on the crisis in Scottish football from recent weeks as well as delivering many great articles on Celtic.

You can get a glimpse of the magazine below but go to the dedicated magazine site here to read it properly (which you’ll not be able to do below). Nip to page 64 for my favourite article this month, comparing the age of the current Celtic team to some of our great teams from the past. It’s an eye opener.

A special word of thanks to Alex Thomson of Channel 4 News, who this morning got Uefa to confirm: “We are in contact with the Scottish FA and offering assistance”.

We have tons to talk about in the next couple of days, Brian Kennedy, Sailen Manna – don’t let me forget to talk about Sailen, Athletic (one of the most important cup ties in years?), Kenny Shiels (don’t underestimate this guy) and we have a Cup Final to look forward to! Struggling to fit it in but we’ll try.

We are now shipping hard copies of the magazine from the UK – and sold out last month (unlike Rangers tickets last week).  Order your copy by clicking on the link below.  If you want a copy shipped overseas (note, seas, not sees) email me, celticquicknews@gmail.com (for Britain and Ireland please use the link below).

Pay by card or Paypal – We don’t do clowns!

You can support the online edition by making a discretionary donation here.  Thanks to James, Bart, Bobby and David, all of whom are probably still asleep, and everyone who contributed.

  1. So rangers are relying on FPLG to detemine their future, might as well demolish the ‘Big Hoose’ now…

     

     

    McCoist admits the prospect of securing a Creditors Voluntary Agreement will likely hinge on Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs but he is more hopeful that can be settled.

     

     

    “Anything can happen, we’re not out the woods yet,” he said. “The threat of liquidation is still there but I just feel it’s a little bit more remote than it has been.”

     

     

    Kennedy has described himself as a reluctant bidder but McCoist did not get that impression from their recent meeting.

     

     

    “Brian was extremely positive about the club, extremely positive about the club’s future and extremely positive about what his involvement in taking the club forward would be,” McCoist said.

     

     

    “I had a great meeting with Brian. I have got absolutely no doubts, if his bid was accepted, it would be positive for the club. It’s absolutely not for me to say what the best option is.

     

     

    “I feel I have to be completely and utterly neutral. I will hopefully be speaking to every potential purchaser – they want to ask me questions and I obviously want to ask them questions. The club is in a bit of a strange scenario with no board of directors, no chief executive, no chairman.

     

     

    “It would be unfair and wrong of me to have a favourite in terms of a potential purchaser. It’s my job to listen to all of them. I have stated to them that I will be speaking to all of them that I can and am allowed to. They all respected that.”

    RobertTressell – I am hearing that FollowFollowers have discovered the secret handshake used by the Unseen Hand. There is absolutely no thumb to knuckle contact and is usually given away by the firmness of grip used by the conspiracists.

     

     

    Aye, but whitaboot the Society of St Vincent De Paul? (thumbsup)

     

     

    ———————————-

     

     

    Obviously they are right in there with the Knights of St Colmuba in this. They pretend to be out helping th needy and delivering groceries and financial assistance to those in need but FolloFollow have now discovered that they are actually an elite unit of Timmy Agents who use the cover of charity to undermie the fabric of Scottish Society.

     

     

    Rumbled I tell ya.

     

     

    HCCPT are regarded as the Europeaninfiltrators in all of this, under the cover of taking the sick to Lourdes they have been crossing the Alps in to Switzerland to make up stories about the SFA and Rangers.

     

     

    No coincidence either that the latest complaint came from Germany and had the Initials JR on it. Game was given away when he couldn’t resist writing ‘Bavaria Rocks’ at the bottom of the page.

     

     

    They are on to us.

  5. Begging bowl out again from ‘club dignity’

     

     

    THE club is urging fans to ‘Step Up For Rangers’ by continuing to back the Light Blues in a variety of ways and help generate essential revenue throughout the administration process.

     

     

    • Walter Smith’s Rangers Legends take on AC Milan Glorie at Ibrox on Friday 30 March with funds raised helping the day to day running of the club and also the Rangers and AC Milan Charity Foundations

     

    • Quarter Season Tickets are on sale now and are valid from Rangers v Celtic on Sunday 25 March

     

    • Fans have stepped up and shown their incredible support at the SPL games against Kilmarnock and Hearts since the club went into administration and selling-out Ibrox for the remaining league games will make a huge difference to the Club’s income

     

     

    AND MY ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE!

     

     

    STEP UP FOR RANGERS BRICKS

     

    The ‘Step Up For Rangers’ Brick Panel will be located in the area surrounding the Rangers/JJB Megastore at Ibrox Stadium. Rangers Bricks cost £50…

    “Not only did Celtic leave the floodlights on for the Germans 17 years before we had them but we also let them park their submarines in the Jungle”

     

     

    To be fair that is more plausible as there was so much urine running down the steps on match days you could have easily parked a submarine at the foot of the Jungle.

     

     

    I always thought the Jungle should have been twinned with Varanasi – a city built on the River Ganges.

    Has been right before with regards ref stuff

     

    Saying we should watch this space, might be on the jelly and ice cream scale…

    I´m sure many of you guys remember when cup finals against Rankers there were 134,000 all ticket crowds and you couldn´t get a ticket for love nor money.The atmosphere was just incredible.

     

    I was at the Celtic v Aberdeen Cup Final in 67 when we won everything.

     

     

    Great memories indeed! I was a ball-boy at that game.

    Cheers…

  17. Meanwhile, Craig Whyte has told the BBC he “is the owner of the club” and it is not up for debate. He also said he remains the secured creditor and any suggestions otherwise are “nonsense”.

     

     

    You tell em Craigy boy fight em all the way

  18. I am concerned that the implications of dual contracts could be so wide ranging and create such utter havoc not only with Scottish results, trophies, income etc but also teams they have played in Europe, that Uefa are not going to want this to be proven to have happened.

     

     

    I have a horrible fear that some magical documents will suddenly appear that cross T’s and dot I’s and the issue of ineligible playing staff will be swept under the carpet.

     

     

    I can only pray that with the likes of P67 and Phil Mac on the case this doesn’t happen.

     

     

    Until “the big hoose” is padlocked shut, the ice cream will be staying in the fridge.

     

     

    (mibee a wee bit of jelly on Sunday though ;)

  19. It must be true, it was in the papers, that Brian Kennedy was making an UNCONDITIONAL offer for the huns. Brian Kennedy’s unconditional offer is:

     

    “The administrators have to present a clean sheet and all the debt and all the legacy stuff has to be put in the CVA [Company Voluntary Arrangement]. They have to deliver that.”

     

    There you have it, it doesn’t get any more unconditional than that does it?

     

    The huns have got more chance of Mr Custard saving their shameful club than any of the other clowns that have been mentioned.

     

     

    Hail! Hail! PMTYH, who is off the drink, on-call for the next week but is still smiling because it is gonnae be a great weekend. C’mon the hoops!

  20. Ally McCoist accepts that any new owner may want to install his own team at Rangers.

     

     

    The Ibrox boss has been guiding the team through a difficult time on and off the pitch, and while he hopes that any new owner would want to retain his services, he accepts that the interests of the club must come first.

     

     

    He said: “I’m darn tootin’ if I was spending a fortune or buying a business then I’d want my own men in charge.

     

     

    Any chance of a Sally must stay campaign

  21. Right it’s not funny anymore.

     

    No more hun/TV schedual contracts ….. ah meant jokes

     

    aargh
