It’s only a flesh wound. King goes Full Python

1151

Celtic hammered Newco 5-1 home and away last season, knocked them out both cups, won one other game and conceded a late equaliser, allowing Newco their only moment of (cough) glory last season.

We finished 39 points ahead of Newco (who were 33 points from bottom). As we set off for the summer, glowing after the first invincible treble in history, chairman of Newco, that complete muppet Dave King, told the assembled media, “In footballing terms I don’t think Celtic are as far ahead as they could have been – certainly with our new signings.”

The two 5-1 defeats now look like Python’s Black Knight losing his legs one at a time, but protesting they were little more than flesh wounds. Except Python was a parody, this guy is being serious!

So, Brendan, Peter, Dermot, get the finger out. These people don’t believe 5-1 is a substantial enough winning margin. When we pitch up at Ibrox on the weekend of 23/24 September, ‘go Medieval on their ass’ to borrow from Quentin.

Take five minutes to update yourself on The Road to Lisbon cyclists, who traveled from Celtic Park to Estadio Nacional last month.

This has been a phenomenal and inspiring effort by a group of Celtic fans – and so many donors.  What a great thing to be a part of.

    Have to say I’m surprised at these comments from dodgy Dave, he’s taken his eye off the ball if you ask me.

    Mrs King has good reason to believe that her Man is seeing somebody on the side

    I was hoping we could avoid the legal route but, in response to your threats, I have forwarded your post to my brief MIT, who you will be hearing from in due course.

    Anyway, Here’s a wee tune that used to mention the Sevconites, in their previous lifeform, and the question as of what to do with them.

    If you look closely – you can see big An Tearmann ascending the hills in the background.

    I may just employ a certain chairman of a lower league club from Fife as my legal counsel!!

    That would be a conflict of interest as I’m sure he must been privvy to your neighbours involvement as he would have heard about it at an after dinner speech in their supporters club.

     

    Govern yourself accordingly.

    Just when I thought I couldn’t put my foot in it, MrsGFTB says “that’s our song” Barry Gibb singing to love somebody, seemingly when we were signing the registrar that song was playing, I answer “I thought it was some daft Michael Buble song………

     

     

    Sometimes, it’s better to say nothing at all……….

    I’m assuming King will refuse their share of the money from UEFA for our CL appearances – being that we shouldn’t have been in it?

     

    I’m sure there must be an award-winning journalist who could ask him…..

    No conflict of interest sir.

     

    Just merely ensuring justice is done .

    Hope all is good……. King Dave wouldn’t know the truth if it hit him between the eyes

     

     

     

    And before the eye police get in the case, he is a convicted criminal who has robbed and still robbing (all allegedly of course) in case Mike in Toronto appeared, he has a soft spot for the Sevs in LMS and GFS :-)

    Hi Gerry just having a wee smile about your song.

     

     

    I’ve been married nearly 37 years and I can’t remember the song for our first dance and i’m terrified she might ask one day.

     

     

    On the first dance thing, a guy that drank in our pub had the coolest wedding dance song ever I think.

    Am not getting pulled up for the first dance, it was signing a blinking book, I was signing my life away to Michael Buble (sort of) our first dance I wanted Grace but settled for Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol, a song about suicide, not treating sucked lightly but sort of funny as my life was over (in an absolutely brilliant way) we are only married 2yrs so even I can remember our first dance :-)

  16. Gerryfaethebrig on

    sucked = suicide

     

     

    There is a couple of words I never thought I would type, never mind on a fitba blog

    “When I fall in love!” by Nat KIng Cole.

     

     

    Every time we hear it we do the dance!

     

     

    My love, my rock, my everything.

    Gerry, gartsherrie must be the non-Celtic enclave of Coatbridge.

     

     

    A former colleague of mine is a Coatbridge bhoy , a few years older than yo. He , stayed in Gartsherrie for a number of years after he got married.

     

     

    He told me a butcher in Gartsherrie sold Buckfast laced black pudding.

    Long life and love to you both!

     

     

    In my youth I was a bit of a lad, drink, smokes and the occasional tabs.

     

     

    Then my life began the day I met Christine.

     

     

    Thank God and thanks Christine!
