The annual raft of idle speculation unsettling Celtic’s playing and managerial resources is well underway. One newspaper headline today proclaimed, “Celtic boss wants Canaries to approach him”, based on Neil Lennon when talking about moving to England saying, “There has been no offer, there has been no concrete phone call or anything like that, so I haven’t really had a decision to make on it”. Countless others have followed in a similar theme.
Neil Lennon has not really hidden the fact that he would like to manage in the FA Premier League one day, but none of the journos with pages to fill have any notion on his thoughts of dropping a division in England. In the real world, Neil is showing no reticence in pursuing team development plans for next season. We’ll be involved in Champions League football two months from tomorrow, the manager is busy on the matters in hand.
Best wishes to John Brown for his inspired attempts to take down Newco Rangers. More power to you, John, I hope you have any many lemmings lined up as possible. Some months ago the plotters had a notion that they would starve Newco shareholders into handing over the club for zilch, or £1 less than Rangers were sold to a liquidation expert for. It remains possible that Sevco will starve, but notions that there will be an outcome for the plotters which is more desirable than an existence under the current crew are fading by the day.
Don’t forget, we’ve Tommy Gemmell, live on the blog, on Friday between 13:00 and 16:00. He’ll be here to chat and answer your questions.

“Para Handy is sailing down the Ayrshire coast, which reminds me of one of the funniest lines ever.
Fulton McKay was playing a minister and he asked the skipper if he could get a lift from Brodick to Ardrossan.
The skipper said , ‘ Well you can work your passage.’
Fulton responded, ‘I only asked, there’s no need for that language”

Sounds like something out of Captain Pugwash. ( The only children’s cartoon that is too risky to elaborate on a family blog.

I really must learn these smiley things. Though I didnae think the comment about Virgil needed one.
Groundhog day/Groundhog transfer window on the blog;
1. Despite the assurances that Celtic “want to get business done early”, they don’t…
2. Finbogasson. Yawn….⌗believeitwhenweseeit

Are you referring to the Captain Pugwash Urban Myth?
BMCUW
Jealous, I am. You’re not meeting Oldtim by any chance?
Is it just me or are the
CYBER-NO-NATS more aggressive on the blog than the CYBERNATS.
If you can beat em’ get angry.

Responding to media speculation encourages further speculation.
Justifying more speculation.
Lenny.Shut your face.
Unless you have other plans.

I live at Slateford and hate driving in the city. I would go the bypass coming from the west of the city. Stress free. Probably slightly longer distance. Not sure the parking is great up at the pool though.

Could I suggest that Alfie might have too high a transfer fee AND an unfavourable Celtic scouting report, making it unlikely he will be bought.
But I do not know better
Never trust anybody that puts a wee nose in their smiley.
voguepunter.. no chance of that happening, ruggie is full of butchers

“Are you referring to the Captain Pugwash Urban Myth?”
———————————————-
Unfortunately yes. Just like the fiction of a liquidated club having history the Captain Pugwash myth has been reiterated so often it has become reality.
But when has fact ever got in the way of a good story.
Thanks & HH to you.
Billy Bhoy 05,
Haven’t read back beyond your mention of Para Handy. I saw it this morning passing Largs. I was saying to the chap in the car with me that it was first time I had seen an ole Puffer for donkey’s years.
BT… in bed… You crook again?
DB
Aye. Back and leg. Was meant to be meeting Bmcuw and Tbm for a few later on too…o ((
Moonbeams WD. Wee Oscar’s our Bhoy and Kano’s our mhan.
“Is it just me or are the
CYBER-NO-NATS more aggressive on the blog than the CYBERNATS”
—————————————————–
Very doubtful, however there is no doubt that the “Cybernats” are more fanatical, dedicated and seem to have a humour by-pass :-)
HH, always in Celtic.

Hooper or Finbogasson?
I like Hooper but who would be the hungrier of the two to succeed ,I would put my money on Finbogasson .
GH would be viewed as a failure ,down in England,and can only score goals in Scotland.
======================================
Except, if he continues(or maybe improves in a stronger Celtic team) his rate of scoring in Europe for us(7 in 17) that will soon shut them up.
HH
BT….. Quick phone call an get them to bring a kerryoot!
How long can you keep a chicken in the freezer for?
Aye mibbees we could borrow this wee song, with minor lyric changes, if we end up with a Scottish Navy,
