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.

  1. The Green Man says SACK THE Board on

    What gets me, is that he seems to be above any law in Scotland.

     

    That tells me, that he has been ahead of the curve in the hacking stakes, what other information has he access to?

     

    You can only get away with this type of blatant contempt, if you prepare the ground properly beforehand, if you get my drift.

     

    There is a good reason why he is untouchable.

     

    The bigot rabble, know he has information, about them:)

  2. So the price for taxpayers of the DUP’s agreement to prop up the Tory government seems to be precisely £1bn. VFM?

  3. Dave King now saying Celtic didn’t win the European Cup in 1967 ‘cos Rangers weren’t in it.

     

     

    Weren’t in the tournament that is, not the cup, obviously …

  4. Anybody know who Rodgers was talking about signing before the Linfield game? Is it John McGinn?

    £1bn is more than twice as much as the HRI which caused so much angst. Mainly because it “disappeared”

     

     

    I suspect it may do so again.

     

     

    Pro-rata,that £1.45bn is about £1000. Extrapolate to the UK as a whole,£65bn

     

     

    Roughly how much it will cost us to get out of Europe,roughly eight times how much we will “save” annually. Which still remains to be seen…

     

     

    How much is too much to pay when you are desperate to cling to power,especially if it comes-as it must-from another budget source entirely?
