McGregor and managing form of young players

913

If you’ve not been following the work being done in your name in Malawi this week, do so here.  20 people arrived from Scotland early this week on behalf of the Celtic Foundation to renovate six centres which feed children ages five and under.  They are also building a latrine (pretty sure this is a toilet) at one of the centres.

It’s another remarkable testament to the ethos of Celtic 127 years after the project started.

The Foundation are in Malawi with Mary’s Meals, the remarkable Scottish charity which is feeding hundreds of thousands of the world’s poorest children each day.  By careful management of costs, utilisation of volunteers and ‘vocational’ staff, a remarkably high 93% of their revenue reaches those in need on the ground.

Really good to read Callum McGregor speaking to Celtic media.  Not that he had anything particularly illuminating to say, but he was speaking after putting in a training session, confirming his return to fitness.

With the injury to James Forrest, Callum was one of the few bright lights in our early season form, opening the scoring in three consecutive European away games.  He even shone in the inept Murryfield performance against Legia.

At the Hearts game last month I overheard someone suggest Callum needed a rest.  His form had definitely dipped, which is not uncommon after young players sparkly when first breaking into the team.  If he stayed fit there’s little chance he would have been rested for any of the recent games, such has been the form of those around him, so maybe his recent illness came at the right time.

    Tony Stokes, isnae really the problem, I think Stokesie is very skilled but just doesn’t have that Desire.

     

     

    The midfield is where the real problems LIE, ole Pedro, IMO of course.

    Jamesgang, thanks for the kind words.

     

     

    My children would counter your claim of me being polite.

     

     

    J Edgar Hoover caused more crime then he prevented. Total power crazy, corrupt, egomaniac, a bit like Sir Dave of the Dodges.

     

     

    There was a documentary on the BBC about twenty years ago called Official & Confidential. It was based on a book written Anthony Summers with the same title.

     

     

    It was a great watch as was the book a great read. It went into detail of the abuses of office Hoover perpetrated.

     

     

    A former member of organised crime was interviewed. His last statement on the documentary was that every law enforcement building with the name Hoover in its title, should be renamed as Hoover was responsible for crime expanding & ignored organised crime until forced to acknowledge its existence.

     

     

    Anthony Summers explained that Hoover was extremely racist and his house staff were all black and treated them badly..

     

     

    He went on to explain that Hoover’s house staff thought of him as an African in origin as in their words, he shared some physical features of a person of African descent.
