Very grateful to whoever at the BBC researched that Celtic are the third team in European football history to achieve the Double Treble, after The New Saints (TNS) and Paris Saint-Germain (PSG). This level of brilliance it exceptional by any standards.
Despite the levels of dominance TNS and PSG enjoy in their domestic leagues, neither were able to complete a Treble Treble; only Celtic can do that now.
The Scottish Cup Final was an exercise in game management by Brendan Rodgers. His team took a two goal lead and set about making sure Motherwell would be unable to lay a glove on them.
The strongest weaker foot in the game
Among the remarkable performances on the day, special mention has to go to Callum McGregor. Yet again he scored on the big stage, yet again with his supposed weaker foot, yet again the crucial first goal. His game intelligence bought him the space to attack when the ball was headed out of the Motherwell penalty area. The shot, hit on the drop-volley, was controlled and crisp.
I doubt there is a better finisher in Scottish football.

Don’t sweat it buddy. You know the rules and the “nerf herder” isn’t worth it. Stay well and don’t let the irrelevance get you down.

RIP Helen.

HEROESAREFOREVER –
That was hard to read but must have been so much harder to write.
Will remember Helen in prayers.
God bless.
i’m with BMCUWP on this if a poster post on an almost daily basis that we are all daft for parting with £49 to support the continuation myth, when parting with said £49 is to laugh at the same flies, then for the same reason and in support of BMCUWP in off too, i wont be missed as much but at least Paul67 my dignity has integrity……….why do you allow £49 man to bring the blog down?

Rangers 3 year deal for 33-year-old Martin Skrtel – what could possibly go wrong?
So I see I have been censored as well for calling KevJ out. Not one inappropriate word and nothing said that was inaccurate or any more abusive than he posts on a daily basis.
It’s a sad sate of affairs if we cannot assert an opinion without censorship. KevJungle abuses and insults Celtic fans on a daily basis here and is never held to account. In fact the post that I replied to is still in the thread; so much for moderation taking out all offensive posts.
Like BMCUWP I may very well assess my contributions here if we have one poster who insults and abuses with impunity, makes it very personal (mods, look at the personal abuse he directed to me about my attendance at Mass last Tuesday) but is never taken to task.

I did not read anything wrong in your post if it was the one I was thinking about. So if it was me, I would raise the issue direct with Paul67. I am sure it is difficult for the Mods at times, but there has to be a consistent approach in applying the rules, which does not always happen.
I hope I don’t get deleted :-)

It would be a huge loss if you or Bobby were to leave this blog and indeed a victory for those who would do this blog down and the good Tims who inhabit the community we’ve built here.

Thoughts and prayers with your daughter Helen, your family and friends at this difficult time.

I have mailed Paul and let him know my thoughts on it; I agree moderation is a difficult task but it needs to be consistent when applied.
KevJ had a personal dig about my attendance at Mass last week that was allowed to stay on; if that’s not personal or abusive then I’m not sure what is!

What a beautiful and powerful post. Your love for Helen shines through and you invoke images of a wonderful human being with a love of life and all things Celtic. Her spirit will always be with you.
For what it’s worth, I know the pain of losing someone so precious way too young and I admire your courage in posting about it.
I’ll say a prayer for you, your family and Helen.
God bless
Starry I would be loathe to leave and allow the troll his victory; all I ask for is a fair application of the rules. I would like to know why my post was deleted and what was offensive about it; I have asked for an explanation.

Chuffed for you Marc. All the very best of luck in your new job. Just give it your best.
Vfr and BMCUWP
2 of the many good guys on here.I have had the pleasure of meeting you both
I understand you getting fed up with Kevs constant negativity and sniping but I would ask you both not to flounce off.
Try do what I do and just ignore him. I appreciate thats difficult especially when there are direct personal barbs.
Tonight should be about the memory of a young girl who got great joy from Celtic and who has sadly passed too soon.it shouldn’t be about letting a bitter troll drive good tims away.
So in memory of Helen stay and help keep this place the great celtic loving community that it is.
WITS you’re right D. It should be about Helen.

As is your right, I am guessing the mods are like Davie Hay, just clear out the whole thread, baw, man, ref, linesman:))
Looking forward to your word of the day the morra:)))
