If you are going to Celtic Park tomorrow you will see a lot of photos like the one above. Outside the ground 200 bucketeers will be collecting to raise money to send Oscar Knox for treatment for neauroblastoma.
Be prepared. Bring spare cash with you, have it ready and do your bit for Oscar.
For the second week in a row we take on the team at the bottom of the table; see how that worked out last week. After an awful August which saw Dundee’s return to the SPL marked with one point and no goals scored from four games, they picked up three points at Tynecastle before losing a lead late in the game against Motherwell last weekend. Manager Barry Smith will have watched how St Johnstone went about their business six days ago and will believe his team can nick something at Celtic Park.
Neil Lennon (and some of us) will welcome the drop in intensity from Wednesday’s Champions League tie as Celtic are likely to give game time to those who joined the club three weeks ago. Miku, Lassad and Ambrose all need to stretch their legs.
Big shout again for the guys raising money for Celtic Youth Development through TicPick. It’s £1 to enter and you win £1000 for predicting 10 results. I’ve gone for Celtic to beat Dundee, West Ham to beat Sunderland, Aberdeen and Motherwell to draw, Man City to beat Arsenal, St Mirren to beat Killie, Dundee United to beat Hearts, Man Utd to beat Liverpool, Hibs to beat Inverness, Chelsea to beat Stoke and Spurs to beat QPR.

Concur with your sentiment.
Let’s keep it civil.
We cannot change the media, but we can, and should, at least bhoycott he dr / sun / phone-ins…
Many of us are, which is why they are pandering to the sevHuns. The more of us that change, the more they will pander, and the less we will care.
And we need to remind each other that they are sevhun press, and at some point critical mass will arrive, and then no tim will buy them, and no fan of anyone else will buy them, and the sevhuns will be their only market, and they will die along with their one customer.
Or they will realise what is happening, and change too slowly, and too late, and they will still die.
And slavish adulation of a dying team will destroy another pillar of Scottish society, whatever that has become; and you want to hope that something better will rise out of the debris…so hope, and act for something better.
The least you can do is email the record/sun why you’re not buying it any more. They’ll see the figures, give them an explanation.
philvis – I hope that you can spare some more of your fabulous wealth for the WeeOscar4Life race/auction night at Celtic Park on the 17th of November. A great opportunity to meet loads of CQNers and raise even more funds for the wee man. Put it in your diary.
A big thumbs up!

Apologies if that last post is all in italics, or maybe it’s just me listing to one side, but I’ve obvoiously missed an / somewhere, with irritating results.

btw, it was me bangin’ on about my dad who quit the communist party coz it was too much like religion.
When he was dying I went and got him a priest, and my ma asked me how I knew to do that. And I said that I knew he’d want one for extreme unction and to make his peace….just in case it was all true. And he was glad I did that for him.
You never escape your Catholoic childhood. It’s ingrained whether you like it or not. The good done always outweighs any bad. Just my experience.

I’d always be civil to you…..given yer size ;-)
Oooooooo fancy writing!!
Everything’s gone italic. How did THAT happen? Interesting.
Philvis
What have you done ?
We’re all moving to the right.
Philvis why feel sorry for a person who tore the heart out of our club and made a difficult task easy for Minty and RFC
The whole stinkin deal cost us dear and paved the way for Mintys RFC going on to take 9 in a row
Feel sorry for Judas …..?
Not me mate

tbh, I find his typical glib responses to be largely infuriating and often insulting. He sounds like many of the modern politicians – Salmond in particular I detest for this – who engage in a type of verbal jousting where the quick one-liner, targeting a single (sometimes badly represented) piece of a posters musings. Perhaps ‘touche’ should be his bon mot.
Each to his own I suppose.

does anyone know a handsome hun ?
no
no
just wanted to see it in Italics
Tarrant….
I hope that little schoolgirl hasn’t been upsetting you again this week…..
Asking “Why are black people always singing and dancing?”….
Perhaps,if the situation should arise again…
You might consider how Jesus (That’s The Son Of God)….
Might respond to her innocent query…?
Mebbies something along the lines of “Well My Golden-Haired Little Cherub…”
“I Can Easily Understand How You Might Have Come To Form The Impression That ‘Black People Are Always Singing And Dancing’…”
“Given Your Limited Life Experience…And Exposure To BBC Childrens’ Television…”
“Perhaps It Would Be Better Just To Make The Observation That ‘Black People Have Rhythm’…”
“Then No-one Could Possibly Take Offence…..My Darling Cherub”.
Ironic that you should boast about ‘scolding’ this innocent child….
Immediately after posting a comment claiming that Kojo is a ‘racist and bigot’….
Seemingly on the basis that he once expressed an opinion that “The Arabs Will Never Be Our Friends…”
Hmmmm….
HT
This is very disconcerting.
But best wishes for tomorrow.
Hope to catch up soon pal.

Philvisreturns.
I appreciative the donations to charitable causes that bill gates donates too.
could you enlighten me if its for tax evasion or avoidance or is he a sound man of heart.hh
From one of the best proponents of the English language, with a nod to a recurring theme that often involves discussion with Philvis:

Beware the Swinging eejit is back.
Re the Italics….
It’s like when the Blog goes down re Celtic…..
And, now Philvis has just bitten down on Norman Lamont’s pillow again.
(Everything Up)
shady
Celtic and Catholicism apart I disagree with most of what philvis says.
However, the fact that these two things are such an important part of my own life coupled with his humour I find endearing.

I was about to go to bed but I’ll stay up for 5 minutes for your answer before tearing you a new one.

Cheers my friend and there’s a personal invitation extended to you for the Wee Oscar quiz night next Saturday!!!! ;-)

Who tilted the blog? Hmmm

I really hope Celtic tell the SFA to shove their banner citation up their ar*e. I also hope that our music man tomorrow is on the ball and this should be played at full volume before kick off.

CFC should not capitulate to the SFA on this charge. Tell the to GTF in a very legal sort of manner.

tommytwiststommyturns – I will be delighted to support this event, although it’s unlikely I can be there in person. I am not usually free on Saturdays, but I’m keen to contribute. (thumbsup)
Gordon64 – And here was me thinking I needed new glasses. (thumbsup)
Thindimebhoy – “Philvis why feel sorry for a person who tore the heart out of our club and made a difficult task easy for Minty and RFC”
Christian compassion. Who among us has not made a stupid decision in our 20’s? (thumbsup)

NO.
There is no need to subject the faithful to that awful awful song.
Wid dair tanks and dair guns and dair tanks and dair guns…
NO.
I posted a fkng great tune about zombies earlier. They should play that. They won’t, but they should.
sipsini – could you enlighten me if its for tax evasion or avoidance or is he a sound man of heart.hh
No multi-billionaire needs to give away nearly all his wealth for tax reasons. (thumbsup)

For this bit, YES. Especially if – no, fk that – as it’s true that the version doing the rounds has been photoshopped. (A shamrock added to make it more like a Celtic fan / Celtic player / Provo sniper [and therefore by insidious implication, a Celtic fan] was shooting the zombie [of no identifiable religion])

Good on ye I’ll let you buy me a pint of the black stuff and I’ll buy you some weird Italian pash in return ;-)
Hamiltontim – Me, I waited ’til my 30′s ;-)

Fair play to you.
You are indeed a sharp cookie
but you must know by now your that
your Thatcherite politics are not going to wash.
