Worst Rangers [sic]team in history?
Check.
Worst Rangers [sic]chief executive in history?
Check.
Worst Rangers [sic]fans in history?
Oh, please. They have played their part to perfection.
Worst Rangers [sic]manager in history?
Who, Ally the Great Enabler? No way.
Charles Green would not have any authority at Ibrox if Ally McCoist didn’t act as his enabler last year. While every Celtic fan with a keyboard was typing “Can they really be so stupid again?” Ally was cutting a deal for almost 5% of the share capital of the company [sic]. None of this would be possible without Ally. If you see him, buy him a pie.
The juxtaposition was pointed out to me:
19 years after John Keane stepped forward with an amount of money very precious to him..
With no guarantee it would solve our problems…
Or that he would see a penny of it again (for the record, he hasn’t, and he is unlikely to)…
A very different history played out across the city.
Today’s Herald told us the group trying to overthrow the Sevco board contains Jim McColl and that, “McColl is one of Scotland’s richest people, but he won’t spend his own money”.
The world is full of rich men who will not spend their own money. Long may they squabble over the Ibrox debris.
Our honorary chairman, John Keane, waved to the Celtic Park crowd before letting the league flag fly high, a direct consequence of putting his money where his mouth was.

Good Afternoon,
Lovely day again sunshine here in G74☀
Went shopping earlier with the good lady.
I bought here the new Sevco bra.
The support is a joke and the tits cannae stay in the cups!
Bobby, outside now but will be in touch later. Keep the stories coming about the great days everybody. It sure inspires.

I think he was the rabbit in the Magic Roundabout :-)

I missed the Jock Stein era. My first season was 89/90, so a long barren spell before the good times came back. I may not have seen the Lisbon Lions but I saw the Henrik/Lubo years and Seville, and for that I feel blessed.
I like that Lennon & Mjalby are running things now, it’s a connection with that team that was MY Celtic.

You can use that article to ram it right up yer so-called mates who called ye a tightwad for not bringing them one back!
As if Scottish Football were not a big enough joke, if the news about liquidated clubs being able to transfer their share to any newco after they have liquidated is correct surely UEFA must step in!!!
This must break their financial fair play rules or at the very least contravene the spirit of it !
Mind u FFP seems to be a joke ( Real Madrid £110m for Gareth Bale !!!)
Liquidated clubs and their Newco spawn must not be allowed to be rewarded for financial mismanagement .
If this is indeed true Sevco will have a right to feel peeved this time!!
Poor wee souls
jimbo,
I remember a Hun remarking towards the end of that season that if they didnt get the ten then their nine meant zilch.That was music to my ears mate.

You picked a bad season to start! Character forming though!

another memory of that flight to milan
the pilot announced that if we looked out the
l.h windows we would be able to see the top
of mont blanc
needless to say everybody piled over to the one side
of the plane which was an old propellor job
which had the pilot screaming for us to get back to our
seats
Donegal six points behind Mayo at Croker and only 14 minutes gone,Jim McGuinness looking seriously concerned.
Derk looked a threat yesrerday,a direct winger whoda thunk it…

Their guttedness ( is their such a word) made that day all the sweeter. The summer of 97 when Cardihun went on a signing spree ( and tried to sign Ronaldo- no laughing at the back) and we lost the three amigos was tough – all the progress seemed since 94to have been in vain. And yet somewhere I have in my possession a e-mail I wrote on the day the perm arrived in which I say ‘ I think things are going to be all right’. Not often I am right but I choose my moments!
Jimbo
Bada,
I thought the fella really looked the part.Shame he had to go off.

I took my kid sis to her first game at 11yo in the early 80s.
She got it right away.
My other sister was about twice that age for her first game.
Beating the huns1-0 in the Centenary Season.
Both long-standing season-ticket holders.
A sight to behold,the pair of them. Proud as punch.

I, too right!
Celtic were absolutely sensational yesterday.
Joe Ledley my MOTM – his best performance in the Hoops? I think so.
Speaking of bests, I don’t think I’ve ever seen Stokes play so well – he did what he always does, scoring and setting up chances, but also brought an extra dimension to his game in terms of defending and linking up. I was a bit doubtful as to whether Commons/Stokes was a goer, but they combined brilliantly at times.
Equally, Lustig and Forrest showed huge improvement together, while the new bhoy looks a genuine find.
Mulgrew/Ambrose brilliant as well. No complaints? Almost. Forster looks a bit hesitant and could have done better at the goal.

‘One of these days you are going to say something nice about Celtic, and I’m going to need a sedative’
####
I don’t know about a sedative, but do you have anything that might assist your powers of comprehension?
My point is that it’s silly to equate our position back then with the huns position when they went bust.
The debt was of a different order of magnitude.
Furthermore we had huge potential. The huns don’t.
How you can construe that as being negative about Celtic simply defeats me.
As a child going to primary school in ML4 I can vividly remember singing on the way to school as wee passed the wee fans of the now deceased club ,
“It’s magic ye know its gonna be 3,4 5,- – – – in a row”
It gladdens my heart no end to hear the young bhoys singing it again,
2011 I will be 60 if God spares me the chance ,I will be belting out 10 like a big wean .

ps Minx88 sorry to hear the news your friend got, thoughts and prayers that they wll get an oppotunity. KTF
Surprisingly, one of my best George Connolly memories (apart from his keepie-uppie display) was when he turned out for the Scottish League against the English League at Hampden in 1973, He partnered Derek Johnstone in central defence, and they were both immense, against a very highly rated-English team. This was before Big DJ became BFDJ, and when he was young he was a good player. Big George and BFDJ really toyed with the English attack for a good part of the game. Both could read a game.
John Duncan (great player) scored both the Scottish goals, Mick Channon the English goals in a 2-2 draw.
“where’s walter?”
Chic..?
…..oh Chiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiic!
Jimbo,
Great stuff bud.Another name I wont forget is Ally Mitchell who netted the winner against them in injury time for Kilmarnock and helped us immensely.I raise a glass to him as we speak.Who was that scumbag of a ref that day who added on about 7 minutes in the hope of a Sevco winner? IIRC,he retired that day and requested his last game be at Ibrox?
Jimbo67 – When the good times came I felt I’d earned it.

Bobby Tait. Only reffed one game where RFC lost. Picked his day.

Did you write that yourself,or did you get AWE NAW to do it for you?
That is brilliant,wi followers-sheep-like that,they can confidently expect to be fleeced on a regular basis.
Ye’ve goat tae larf….
I was brought up in Forfar….not Kirriemuir where a certain Barrie was born to tell wonderful fantasy…..bit it makes you think how deluded the Dark-Side is …never change ….which is of course Braw!
Jimbo,
Bobby fecken Tait..How could I have forgotten that? Only in Scotland would this nonsense have been accepted.Imagine a referee asking/telling the authorities in any other country he was reffing a particular game.What a joke.
Mayo pasting Donegal at Croke Park.2-10 to 0-04 at half time.Donegal a shadow of the team who won last years All Ireland.
St Johnstone defeat Hearts 1-0.Good start by Wright as manager.
I tended to lean more towards Jackanory. ;)
Whats the chances of a carlo verdi v Alistair McCoist celebrity death match … maybe fit it in at the embra festival
Has anyone seen the Donegal team?
They have gone missing at Croke Park.
Absolute humiliation from Mayo.
Stil, we will always have last year, when we made other counties up their game and rethink their strategies.
Tricoloured Ribbon
Can’t argue with that . Those were the fabulous James Farry was in charge.
Another great memory from many moons ago was the day Celtic played Morton at CP with the Huns down at Rugby Park. Second last game of the season – level on points with us miles ahead on Goal Average. Both matches are tied one all in the last few minutes. Rangers score and at RP their fans flood on to the pitch at the final whistle. They have an easy last game at Ibrox to come we’ll have to go to Dunfermline ( who’d knocked us out the cup). They have won the league. No. Bobby Lennox scores with last kick of the ball. Bedlam.

Won 3 out of their last 10…
Mo Bangura was on the end of abuse and
jeering throughout Elfsborg 2-1 defeat at AIK
Stockholm yesterday.
Straight from his controversial appearance
against Celtic in the Champions League the
striker was again in the firing line as he
returned to the club that transferred him to
Celtic two years ago.
In February Bangura turned down the chance
to return to AIK in favour of Elfsborg with the
home fans letting him know their feelings
throughout yesterday’s match.
Bangura’s goals saved AIK from relegation in
2010 but that didn’t impress the home fans
who weren’t slow to voice their feelings
yesterday.
“I can’t understand why they behaved like that
to me,” the striker said afterwards. “It’s hard
not to react when you hear that level of abuse
but I had to try and do my job.
“I’m not a bad person, I don’t know why they
reacted like that against me, I’m still in
contact and friendly with a lot of the AIK
players, there was no problems with the
players.”
The defeat leaves Elfsborg nine points behind
leaders Helsingborgs- having played a game
more played- with little hope of retaining last
season’s title.
Elfsborg have won only three of their last ten
matches with two of those victories coming in
the suspicious 11-1 aggregate Champions
League win over Latvian side Daugava.
