Friday is the 8th annual Celtic Quick News Open. The event, in which our guest speaker will be Livingston FC Manager and former Celt John Hughes, is completely booked up with a record 54 golfers. In addition to playing golf and having fun the CQN Open raises funds for good causes
Our good causes this year are The Haven Centre in Blantyre, Oscar Knox Neuroblastoma Appeal, Martin Chambers Ecuador Trust and Aberdour Primary School Parents’ Association.
We have already distributed over £2000 thanks to the sale of a Joseph Gormley painting back in April. We have two further fantastic paintings by Joseph; one of Scott Brown and one of Henrik Larsson. We also have a wonderful signed Neil Lennon print by the artist Gary Brandham.
The items are being raffled on ebay right now for the price of a £1 ticket. Winners will be drawn at the CQN Open on Friday night. There will be further raffles and auctions on Friday night with some excellent golfing and other sporting activities been donated by the Celtic family. Perhaps the pick is a limited edition canvas print of John Thomson, donated by the John Thomson Memorial Committee. There are only 22 of these in the entire world, representing the 22 years of John’s life.
This is a unique opportunity to win three great pieces of Celtic memorabilia, items which would normally be pushed out of the reach of most people at auction. Tickets cost £1, buy as many as you like, but participate. This is what your club is all about!
Many congratulations to Sean Fallon on his 90th birthday. I am delighted his autobiography is currently being written. Sean is our last remaining link to huge parts of our history. He was there, participating in the decision process, on so many of the things we now take for granted. The research, preparation and publicity surrounding his autobiography will be an opportunity to make sure younger generations get to appreciate the great resource he is. Let’s hope we get a CQN interview one day.
Sighs of relief will be heard around many dens of iniquity as Rangerstaxcase sails into the sunset; well done on excellent work. RTC’s “99% crap” has teased, entertained and informed for over a year. History is already being rewritten, but the inescapable fact is that Rangers diaspora were far better served by RTC than by the army of cheerleaders Sir David Murray or Craig Whyte depended upon to make their work possible.
The ‘buy lots of raffle tickets’ message if for you, b.t.w. so what are you waiting on, they are only £1 each!!!

Maybe you were just lonely in the mid 70′s and found two/one guy with similarly bad tastes in music to yours ?
—–
I admit to the awfy music taste …
Your antenna is wonky however, I suspect your mind is made up. Anytime you want to meet for a sensible chat over a beer let me know. I drove home to Glasgow this morning to catch up on some business.
If you are around City tomorrow lunchtime or Thursday or Friday/Sat happy to clarify.
I don’t expect you to apologise but at least hear the story
Like I said I have no knowledge of RF ..please be clear about that.
It’s your call I am not difficult to reach.

I see a few references to a new SPL deal with the company formerly known as BSkyB. Does anyone actually know what the numbers are, or is it all just speculation?

don’t know it.
might be up at the great http://www.cailbruich.co.uk/
this weekend
ulysses mcghee – Same thing happened to me only on investigation the guy said ‘ Me no Mario! Me Wario! Me hate Mario!’
He then proceeded to beat me about the head with what I can only describe as an oversized angry flower, all the while screaming about the ‘Golda Coins!’
So you too were tricked into perusing his “wares”?
Most embarrassing moment since that time I got into a fight with a chicken in Hyrule. (thumbsup)

Remember Sevco didn’t apply for a new membership, they applied for Rangers’ membership to be transferred to them.
Remember too that in a statement last week the SFA said that Sevco Scotland will be, “the new owners of Rangers FC.”
We now have the official SFL website crediting The Rangers FC, a club formed in 2012, with honours won by Rangers FC going back to 1890.
Of course everyone knows that The Rangers FC are not Rangers FC, but that’s what The Rangers FC are trying to convince everyone of, and the authorities are going along with the deception.
Let this go unchallenged and it will become accepted as fact.
Do the huns really believe we will ever let them forget their Newco status by merely indulging in some wretched wordplay like some faux process of osmosis? Will the United or Aberdeen or Hibs or even any other rival fans let them forget? No way Jose. It a’int gonna happen. They know it. Just wait until they get a bigger club in the cup…vinegar will be liberally applied to old & new wounds alike!
CQN badge received in post today (thanks Marc). Noo awe a need is a jackit :))
Hail!Hail!
Why is the SFA not slapping down Green by telling him that his club is not the Rangers he is claiming despite its name, that his club is brand new and is applying to join Scottish football at a level it does not even qualify for and should be grateful for being lifted ahead of clubs who have followed the rules

Sevco have signed Dean shiels, he said:
“I’m from a Rangers community in Northern Ireland. I have a lot of friends who are season ticket holders who come over on the boat every week and I have great affection for the club.
Hes from a rangers community in n.ireland?? what the feck does that mean? Think hes prob trying to say that he knows a few ppl who supported rangers (now support sevco). But dont give me that tripe “a rangers community”
======================================
Please read ‘care in the community’ for that,
Is the Motherwell game on the telly tonight, chaps..?
