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!!!

Bourne more awkward if they get angry. Then its the cross dressage.
That akward moment when the wife turns the telly on in the morning,and the last channel watched was a 900 number……..
Question now Sevco have changed name to end in LTD and plan share issue will that not require to become PLC in future? That would be almost identical is this legal?

I take it that’s not the shipping forecast??!!
Ole John Brown has fair confused the Orcs, all 600 of them don’t know which team they’ve bought a season ticket to watch.

When wavetower bought Rangers did they have to apply for SFA membership? Why not?

Sevco5088 Limited is there – company number 08011390 incorporated 29/03/12.
Recently I’ve been thinking to myself: how many bluenose friends is that I’ve falken out with since they went into implosion mode?
Many of them- who I believed were true moderates- have really shown their true faces and what i’ve witnessed has been very ugly.

————
Wavetower bought Rangers and Rangers were members of the SFA. Rangers no longer exist. Sevco is an entirely new club and, as such, has to apply for membership, which membership should not be granted as the new entity cannot exhibit 3 years’ audited accounts.

In the solutions game it’s always good to let the client choose..
Simplicity wins the day..
I’m trying to figure out how I’m going to set off fireworks and watch the game at the same time as it’s guarenteed my daughter wants to terrorise the village with rockets and sparklers and all that good Swiss stuff..
Have the media stopped referring to the mankey’s training ground as Murray park? I keep seeing them lately always saying aucenhowie
Tony Martin- the Las Vegas lounge singer?
The silver haired bronze beaten, hair out of the top of the shirt, pinky ringed, brogue wearing Tony “Cheeseman” Martin who was understudy to Tom Jones all those years?

philvis will love this…
Olympique Marseille’s new coach Elie Baup denied any intentional wrongdoing on Tuesday after he was charged with fraud over jobless benefits by a French judge.
The 57-year-old, who took over as the Ligue 1 side’s coach earlier this month as Didier Deschamps quit and joined France, is accused of having received benefits while he was working for French television channel Canal+ after he was sacked by Nantes in 2009.
A judge from Toulouse, where Baup was living before moving to Marseille, laid the charges in June but the news was only made public on Tuesday.
Baup, who led Girondins Bordeaux to the French league title in 1999, said he would happily return the money.
“I had no intention to fraud,” he told a news conference at Marseille’s training facility La Commanderie.
“This is the reality. I trusted some law experts and advisors who led me into this… I am willing to pay some damages, even to give the whole money back. I’ll do whatever it takes.”
Olympique Marseille, who reached the Champions League quarter finals last season but had a poor Ligue 1 campaign, travel to Turkish side Eskisehirspor for their Europa League preliminary third round first leg on Thursday.
Am I the only person who’s bothered that the SFL website lists honours won by Rangers FC on the The Rangers FC page of their official website?
I don’t mind deluded Huns claiming “it’s a different company, same club,” but it’s doing my head in that the governing authorities are running with this fiction.
History is being written here, and if allowed to go unchallenged, in 20 years time it will be universally accepted that Sevco5088 is the club founded in 1872.
