There are truisms in life. The sun rises in the east and sets in the west, night follows day and Hibernian Football Club will not win the Scottish Cup. However, a failure to lift the trophy since Orville said to Wilbur, ‘I bet this thing gets off the ground’, does not guarantee subsequent failures. Hibs have already beaten Celtic this season and are perfectly capable of doing so again on Sunday.
Before this season Kilmarnock hadn’t won at Celtic Park since 1955, but it happened. St Johnstone, Motherwell, St Mirren, Inverness and Ross County beat us too. All these defeats were against the odds; no more so than Hibs are on Sunday.
Celtic need to get in touch with how they felt after their League Cup semi-final defeat to St Mirren, a day of so much regret. The 90 minutes will pass quickly, there’s no point leaving something in your locker for next week. Let’s get off to a flier.
Many thanks for sending over your Seville photographs, we are planning to pull photos and your comments on the event together into a special publication. If you have any more please send them in, celticquicknews@gmail.com.
Willie Wallace will be signing copies of his book at Waterstones on Sauchiehall St between 2pm and 4pm on Saturday, 25th May. Bet he knows what he was doing that very afternoon 46 years earlier. Get along to see him or order your own signed copy below. This is going to be a great weekend.

For the guys like me without tickets I enquired of my Hibee ticket possessing colleagues today whether, if I stood outside they would be willing to hand over their tickets as they left in order that I might enjoy the last hour or so. No luck so far but much nervous laughter,!
Two men. Armed with knives. Armed with meat cleavers. Armed with a gun. Using a car as a weapon.
One man. Unarmed. Walking along the street. Minding his own business.
To suggest this was not cowardly betrays common decency.

Craigellachie10, my next bottling is actually going to be a Craigellachie 11. Putting it in Glass any time after its birthday in September. I was up at the Tomatin distillery last year for a sample and it a very nice wee drop.
Do you live in the village? I spent many a happy night (and a fair mount of someone elses cash:-) in the hotel and in the bar. The last few times I’ve been up I’ve stayed in the Highlander which is a fantastic wee pub.
Just in case you forgot!

The agenda is being driven by the MSM. Always remember that there are controlled people in just about all the TOP jobs, those people are scared to breakout.

Celts,
Re the KANO 125 tee-total-athon:
First of all many thanks to those who have already donated to either Kitalba in Australia, Sannabhoy or myself. For those who don’t know, the Kano 125 is a group of CQN’ers who decided to go tee total for 125 days whilst putting away £1 per day, the idea was to gather the money and present it to the Celtic 1254125 charity in the name of Martin Kane (Kano) in Perth Australia, the 125 days ended on the 5th May and before I go any further I’ll let Kitalba who’s idea it was, say a few words:

Kano got sick one night, very sick. If it was not for so many Celtic Supporters, from so many places, then Kano would be an ornament in a sterile hospital room. That is not nice because Kano still breathes and he still thinks and he is still a Celtic Supporter to his very core.
A lot of money, by a lot of people, was raised to take Kano home. He can’t ever balance the books, but he’d love to.
None of us gets more than one go on the roundabout of life.
Celtic is celebrating their 125th Birthday and indelibly stamping it into their history by encouraging all to embrace the simple ethos of the clubs founding… let’s try and help those who just don’t have more than the air that they breathe.
A lot of Celtic Supporters are doing a lot of different things to raise money for to help those less fortunate than ourselves. To a lot of people that is no big deal.
I’m determined to help Kano pay back the kindness shown to him by the Celtic Support by supporting my club to help unfortunates. No big deal.
There are some from here who have said they will help me to help Kano to help Celtic to help others.
I will give up the bevie for 125 days and I give up posting on here for 125 days as of the 1st Jan. No big deal really, Kano has done both for the best part of four years.
I ‘m going to put a wee bit aside for each day that I don’t drink or post and forward it to Celtic to hopefully fill a belly that needs a feed or to make an unfortunate hope where only darkness is their dawn.(but maybe I can have St. Pat’s day off so I can share a day with some good Tims)
I’ve only one life and when I’m gone I will soon be forgotten, but if I’ve ever managed to feed one hungry person, if only for one day, then my life was worth something.
No big deal to me or you but the person I fed, he/she will never know where the food came from and they won’t ever be visiting my grave to put some pretty flowers at the base of a head-stone, they’ll be too busy worrying about tomorrow.
I can live with that and like Kano, once I’m gone, I’ll know that I never changed the world, hardly left a mark, but still I took to Celtic and I did something to try and ease the pain of others… sort of the Celtic way.
*****************
Nice post Kit,
To continue then, Kitalba has asked that I coordinate the monies and make one payment on everyones behalf to the Celtic 1254125, Paul67 has already supplied me with a name and I’ve been in contact with them.
The Kano Foundation have very kindly accepted a request to use their expertise and set up, to collect the monies into one central area.
Can I ask therefore, that all who took part in the Kano 125, and anyone else who committed to donate or now wish to donate, send their donations into the Kano Foundation via their website, its most important that you include “KANO 1254125” as a reference when making the payment so that all donations can be correctly accounted for.
Also you can pay at ANY bank using the following details:
Account: The Kano Foundation
Sort Code: 30 13 01
Account Number: 00989961
Can someone please repost for the late night session,Aussietims/ moonhowlers and I’ll do the early risers :¬)
Sorry for the long post but it’s for our friend Martin Kane in Australia, we should never forget him, he needs our love.

The league winner hasn’t always won such an award.
Well this year he has been good enough rightly so IMO. best team in SFL 3 by some distance QOTS 2nd imo
public beheading’s are such a villlified form of punishment in the West.
curious isnt it?
the man from the East will explain matters.

thank God they were apprehended. if The Shankhill Butchers had committed such a crime the perpetrators may still be at large.

The Shankill Butchers did commit such a crime- on many occasions- and some of them are at large.
TWENTY Scottish clubs are dead men walking after the collapse of league reconstruction plans.
A rebel group of ten First Division outfits are poised to quit the SFL and form a new SPL2.
The remaining 20 SFL clubs will be cast adrift and face a bleak future.
Top-flight chairmen are understood to support the breakaway.
First Division chiefs insist they had to take drastic action after 13 SFL clubs said they would vote against reconstruction at a Hampden summit.
The changes could be rubber-stamped quickly, leaving two leagues of ten teams playing in a stripped-down SFL.
They would feed off £500,000 of Rangers’ TV money next season.
Division Two clubs would also benefit from fixtures against the Glasgow giants.
But if, as expected, Rangers win the title and are promoted, cash would dry up.
Most clubs would have little chance of being promoted to the SPL leagues after it emerged there will be NO play-offs between the two bodies.
A one up, one down model will be used.
Rows over cash distribution and voting structures led to the 42-club plan put forward by the SPL being blocked.
At least 22 votes would be needed to push it through in a vote at a June 10 EGM.
Hamilton chairman Les Gray branded the plans “dead” and confirmed First Division clubs are ready to quit.
Gray said: “We see that EGM vote as an irrelevance. It has been voted down so it is a failed vote in our eyes.
“We will now look at all the other alternatives to us and we will do what is right for our clubs now.
“It will involve getting change for next season. We will organise meetings with the SPL in the coming days.
“The whole group are very disappointed with the outcome. Everyone has worked incredibly hard to try to get it over the line.
“Obviously, it hasn’t been enough and nearly half the SFL clubs have decided it’s not for them.
“It is really unfortunate and we are all greatly disappointed.”
The First Division clubs held a meeting straight after the SFL summit and Gray is fed up at the stumbling blocks.
He said: “The 42-club solution is what we have been trying to achieve. It has not happened and it is disappointing. It is not going to happen now.
“We are all big boys. It is a democracy and some clubs have made their decision. We will move on with our lives.”
SFL chief David Longmuir will be left with just 20 clubs — and a large chunk of the SPL settlement agreement will go with the rebels.
Longmuir said: “There was no bullying but I think the Second and Third Division clubs are feeling a bit exposed in terms of the way the thing has been handled.
“There is no clarity on an attempted breakaway. There was no mention of a breakaway.”
The breakaway could be seen to shut the door on plans for a pyramid structure at the bottom of the league.
But it’s almost certain the SFA would step in to ensure this still happens.
Hampden chiefs see this as one of the key elements to take our game forward and are determined to push it through.
Angry Annan chairman Henry McClelland said: “There is something inherently and fundamentally wrong with this.
“It flies in the face of the principles of a merger. It doesn’t feel like a merger the way stuff comes back from the SPL.
“It is an aggressive takeover. It isn’t in the spirit of two bodies trying to merge for the good of the game.
“We are being dictated to, in terms of the tone and language being used.
“It is such a shame. There are so many positive aspects to this, but at the same time there is this distaste

I have been enjoying the memories of Seville the last few days….
Beautiful moments, altruism and adventures that will be and should be recorded… Forever.
Mine? I was stuck in New York in a new job…And nae money.
My memory is thinking to myself (and my late departed father)….As the game moved on..
What a game….. What a moment…. What a Show…. Whatever happens..
The Glasgow Celtic are certainly there.
That is all I needed.

________________________________________________________________________
The currants & SFA? They are the paragon of a corrupt system that needs to drag its arse into the 21st century. The editorials on MSM in Scotland are cringeworthy and self evidently self serving. We may have laughed, as is our right, but it seems to me it is no longer a laughing matter. It is, to put it succinctly…. Embarrassingly Amateurish in its Patronizing Whitewash.

I used to be confused and perplexed about why The Germans in WW2 accepted their Government doing the nasty things they did….. Now I understand….How simple it is to do so.
You reap what you sow.
Most people in the West have no concept of the horrors that are inflicted in their name, with their tax money, against innocents….As long as they have bread, a secure home for their family, and are preoccupied with fitba they will not even think about it…. Thats the Truth? A fundamental Natural Truth. Unpalatable as it may be…
We are fighting a ‘ghost’ called Al Qaeda, but finance and arm them when it suits in places like Libya or Syria…. It is no wonder our media and government consider us insecure mugs.
One thing I learnt as a Bhoy and a Tim was never believe the official line. EVER!
The truth is elusive and complex…
Now I have a family to feed and support I understand that lesson even more….
