Busy article today, watch out for notes at the bottom on:
Magners ticket competition for 27 December
Mary’s Meals Malawi school kitchen appeal
CQN Annual, final few posting days before…..
CQN Christmas Raffle – winners have been drawn
One of the resources Ronny Deila has been short of since taking over is training days. Players have stamina, fitness and speed training work to do every week, while there’s rest time before and after games, so time to work on technical aspects are a premium.
Believe it or not, this is the first midweek Celtic haven’t had a game, or players away on international duty, since the second week of July. The manager has spoken of how difficult it has been to carry out the extensive tactical changes he has introduced spending only stolen minutes working on them. The January break will give him another opportunity to spend hours with the players on tactical work.
Apparently newco are keeping McCoist as some kind of blubber human shield for Monday’s AGM! Nice one. There’s nothing degrading about that, very classy in fact. Really disappointed for Ally, I’m sure he could almost taste the £400k he’s counting on – to go quietly. Let’s hope he puts on a show on Monday and they sort him out thereafter.
It’s almost worth buying a newco share to get along on Monday. Almost.
It’s been a while since I’ve paid any attention to the man who’s apparently lined-up to replace McCoist next week, Billy Davies. After his interesting second stint at Nottingham Forest ended earlier this year, The Guardian wrote:
“[Davies] has paid the price for failing to control a personality which latterly seemed to have crossed the border into downright paranoia.
“[He] could never quite escape his self-destructive insecurities.”
It’s not often you read a national newspaper liberally speculating on the mental health, or lack thereof, of an individual.
Failing to control his personality, downright paranoia, self-destructive insecurities! He’s perfect. Is there a job in the land this guy is more suited for than newco’s manager?
Our pals at Magners have kindly offered a pair of premium seat tickets to the Jock Stein Stand at the home game on 27 December in support of our Mary’s Meals appeal. You can win the tickets by email me at celticquicknews@gmail.com the answer to the question:
Who do Celtic play on 27 December?
Competition closes at 22:00 tonight (Thursday) so get your entry in.
If you’re entering the competition please consider donating £1 to Mary’s Meals here, where we are hoping to build a kitchen at a school in Chibwata, Dowa, Malawi, for their 909 children.
I’d a look at John Guidetti’s interview with Magners this week, he looks like he’s enjoying himself……..
We’ve drawn the CQN Christmas Raffle, winner of the Special Whisky and CQN Package is ticket number 976, from a lucky reader based in Lythm, we’ll be in touch.
The four runners up all win CQN Packages with ticket numbers 1072, 974, 1190 and 1051, check your tickets, we’ll be in touch soon.
Still time to order your 2015 CQN Annual for Christmas.
You can also order the CQN Annual and DVD bundle here. It’s a great offer, check it out – oh, and there’s tons of photos, fresh stories and comment on the first time Inter faced the green and white hoops.

You canny educate pork,mate. Their attitude towards us will never change,at least not for the better.
=================
You can educate folk by making the consequences of their behaviour painful enough that they will want to change. They will still not love, but know there is a price for crossing you.
B.M.C.W. I wasnt aware of Kitalbas location but anyone can ring the show it doesnt have to be him. I still have not had anyone answer the question I asked it seems we are taking it for granted that Keevins was talking mince.However,we dont know for certain. H.H.
Auldheid:
So are you saying mate that the hun will soon be a contender?
Yes or no would be nice.
Tiny Tim (12:12), I expect Broony misses the passion and intensity of the game, and I can understand that. But did he say that he wanted them (back?) in the SPL… or just that he missed playing against them?
Indeed, he will soon get the opportunity to do just that.
My hope is that the Celtic players see the impending fixture as an opportunity to set a few new records, like our biggest ever win against them… a 1-0 victory would achieve that distinction! ;o)
Personally, I would hope that our Bhoys set out to achieve an ALL TIME record win against any perceived incarnation or predecessor of the SPFL’s youngest club. I am looking forward to outdoing the current record victory in any match between Celtic and their extinct ancestors…

I respect you immensely.
It therefore gives me no pleasure that someone with your cognitive reasoning can look forward and see what is likely to happen.
One note .
It will be within the rules if he loans players to Sevco.
He will do ,whatever makes commercial sense.
TT
Kitalba 12.21 I agree with your post fella and I would add I dont see it changing anytime soon. H.H.
Joe Filippis Haircut:
mate I thought, and probably wrongly, it was written, I was not doubting you.
TinyTim 12:21 on 19 December, 2014
“Time will tell.”
It certainly will. I’m more than comfortable with that.
Can I politely suggest a 3 week sabatical for all from CQN over the Christams ( for the holly willies ) xmas ( for the atheists ) period.
it would do you all good.
Seriously!
Yeez are awe just a bunch a dafty banana’s.
MWD said AYE Ho Ho Ho
GreenPinta, absolutely.
Kitalba, that the SFA is corrupt is a given.
It’s what is to be done that is the live issue.
I think change is ongoing now and there is a power struggle going on now between the SFA and SPFL.
Hope it’s a draw, doubke knock out.
Lunch time.
Moonbeams
Ho Ho Ho, to you also.
Hope you get a dictionary for Christmas.

Harry Redknapp, is the Darling of Sky Sports, he is a media guy, also a decent Man Manager.
Is the scandal too hot to handle?
Doc:
The SFA is the governing body… if that is corrupt… then the game, and all who have a part in it, fans included, are corrupted, or paying for it in their ignorance….
The Scottish media is attacking Celtic for their stance on Tonev … are these people really going to try and give us lessons in morality?
http://www.onfieldsofgreen.com/lessons-in-morality/
Oh and Doc, both the SFA and the SPL signed up to the five way agreement.
MWD – ‘member the referendumb mate?
;)
There is a limit to the number of players a club can borrow from the same club. That limit is 2.
So talk of Newcastle flooding Sevco with players on loan is way off the mark.
Kit, we are all corrupted to an extent.
That is different from being corrupt if course.
Doc
12:17 on 19 December, 2014
GreenPinta, he had his journalistic priveliges withdrawn, but was welcome to buy a ticket to enter the ground. HK spins it to suit his agenda.
Pretty surre thats right.

why has nobody ever posted the five way agreement on here? Is it against the law?

Saved!
Nice one,bud. All booked up?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Flights are sorted, although they got changed slightly, no big deal an hour or so either way.
Not sorted accommodation yet, always last minute about things like that.
Doc:
To what extent do you personally think Celtic are corrupted?
Oi MWD
leave the Banana’s out of it

Tom McLaughlin 12:33 on 19 December, 2014
Sevco already have a squad of 40 players. Why would they need any more coming in?
Tom McLaughlin (12:33), so if we get Guidetti to sign on the dotted line in January we could take Agüero on loan until the end of the season…?
Like if you were to cut a Celtic Director in half would his torso be ringed with:
Auld Firm… Bigot Pound… Ya Dancer…Auld Firm… Bigot Pound… Ya Dancer…Auld Firm… Bigot Pound… Ya Dancer…Auld Firm… Bigot Pound… Ya Dancer…Auld Firm… Bigot Pound… Ya Dancer…
kitalba. No problem fella we are reading off the same page and I think in part it is one of the reasons our gates are down why pay out good money to follow your team when you know within yourself that the game is corrupt.H.H.
IAv goat a pictionary. Thatul doe fur me! Tank yees awe ferry much.
MWD said AYE
PETEC
Good man. Don’t worry about accommodation. DENA29 may allow you and DELANEYS DUNKY to hunker down in the staff quarters.

I suppose you should be thankful you are not a Real Madrid fan – removing a cross from their badge in order to pick up a few bob from the gulf.

Undisputable, however i always remember the advice, if it looks like one, smells like one, tastes like one and sounds like one, it probably is one.
Rangers2012/Sevco/Zombies/RIFC whatever is not the issue in my book, it’s the corruption at the heart of scottish football that leads to mibbery, bending and breaking rules to favour one over others, completely disproportionate application of other rules for one and another that has and still does sicken me about the game here.
Sporting intergrity. Without it, what is the point
STEINREIGNEDSUPREME
Cos the majority of them-overpaid,old,useless-won’t fit the new owner’s strategy.
Young,fit,zero-hour contracts. It’s the future,I tell ye!!!!

“Sevco already have a squad of 40 players. Why would they need any more coming in?”

A lot better than Todays offerings in the Rafael Van der Vaarts, IMO ofc.
MWD
Careful,big fella.
Goat and pictionary in the same sentence,not good.
BOBBY MURDOCH’S CURLED-UP WINKLEPICKERS :
just a wee point of order mate… it is 50 times cheaper for me to call the UK than it is for me to call Oz from the UK. If anybody ever wants to speak to me on the phone they’ll easily get my number and I’ll delight in calling them back.
And I’ll see you for a beer in private soon.
Steinreignedsupreme:
Shame on them.
