Miku, Lassad and Ambrose need to stretch legs

842

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.

    Two daughters travelled over to Donegal on thursday

     

     

    This will be their third year in a row….

     

     

    Absolutely love it……

  6. God bless wee Oscar.

     

     

    Dig deep today guys and get the buckets filled.

     

     

    4 nil today , due to skelp someone, may as well be Dundee.

     

     

    Hail Hail

  7. No doubt been said before but was telling my youngest to get his copper bucket in a bag for wee oscar today when I noticed a couple of euros in there.

     

     

    I am sure knoxy will accept any of your holiday smash you have left lying about

  8. jc2

     

     

    Good point….Im sure ive got a Jersey fiver kicking about…

     

     

    Off to have a wee look…

  9. good luck to all the bucket collectors today,

     

     

    can’t be there myself but am in spirit and contribution given to CRC on wednesday night,

     

     

    great to see Kris Commons girlfriend and stories of another ‘WAG’ joining in with the ‘green bucket army’

     

    hopefully it is a sign of a better connection between the players and the fans and a sign that some of the players really do get what the Celtic family is all about

  10. Best wishes to all the volunteer’s with the buckets today, you are the finest example of why celtic is unique and special.

    Celtic weekend in Bundoran would make a great venue for a CQN convention?

     

     

    A jersey fiver left over, If I had known you were coming over we could have enjoyed a pint.

  12. theglasgowcelticway on

    Morning from a sunny Cambuslang.Glad the weather’s to be OK today for the bucket collection.Have a great day one and all!

  13. A big shout out to Neil who donated money to me at the 5s this morning so that my bucket will not have that cold empty feel to it when I start.

     

     

    Hope I get stationed with one of the WAGs so I can persuade her to leave her over-rated man and run away with a guy who has a bucketload of money :-)

    4th September 1971 – first League game of the season:

     

     

    CELTIC 9-1 Clyde – Lennox(3), Macari (2), Murdoch, Dalglish, McNeill, Callaghan.

     

     

    Some no’ bad players there!

     

     

    HH!!

     

     

     

    My first senior game, hence my user name. 8-0 up before Dom Sullivan scored for Clyde I think……………it was a long time ago.

  15. setting free the bears

     

     

     

    Behave yourself. You have our reputation to uphold. You’re no’ in Gweedore noo!

     

     

    Good luck and don’t start arguing with the donors!!

  16. Paddy Gallagher

     

     

    Paddy…Never been to Jersey…

     

     

    The good lady has a cousin out there and she sends my girls money for birthdays etc..

     

     

    just checked and I do indeed have a fiver and a pound note also a couple of Euros…

     

     

    That and my own donation should help a wee bit….

     

     

    I just love being a Celtic man….

     

     

     

    Hail Hail tae ye….

  17. clyde9-1

     

     

    Some game in which to make your debut!

     

     

    We were spoiled rotten in those days – great so it was!

     

     

    HH!!

  18. A Ceiler Gonof Rust on

    Right, off to drive to glasgow for a bit of lunch and some beer before the game.

     

     

    Have instructed young Ceiler to make sure he has some cash for the collection, strangely enough something he never usually bothers about :-)

  19. Can’t believe I’m going to Paradise today minus drink,last time that happened I must have been aboot …………………………..13,still it’s all in a good cause.

     

    Hail hail.

  20. 67Heaven ... I am Neil Lennon..!!.. Ibrox belongs to the creditors on

    Off for a wee swim now, then onto the game, stopping on the way to put a wee dent in my bank account for the blessed wee Oscar ………

     

     

    Can anyone explain to me how, having really enjoyed the CL game / performance, my current elation is down to the ‘zombies -in-waiting’ exit from another revenue generator on Tuesday……l think it may have something to do with the fact that it brings them closer to oblivion….

     

     

    Reading ‘Downfall’ has made me realise just how much we owe FERGUS / MON …….. Those two legends singlehandedly put the brakes on the ‘entrepreneur’ ……..and ‘started the ball rolling’ to oblivion ……..LITTLE DID WE KNOW WHAT WAS TO COME ….OH, HAPPY DAYS

  21. 67Heaven ... I am Neil Lennon..!!.. Ibrox belongs to the creditors on

    …….. And, of course, WGS and our Board……!!!!

  22. Tallybhoy

     

     

    Yes, great times, but did have it’s downside. Too young to remember watching Lisbon with the rest of the family but old enough to remember Milan !!!

     

     

    Cheers, off to get ready for today’s game.

  23. Beautiful day in the west of Scotland. Going to be good for all those fine folks out with the buckets at the match collecting for wee Oscar. God bless all of you.

     

     

    Dan

  24. To all the bhoys/ghirls going to the game – safe there and back, and enjoy!

     

     

    I’m sure the buckets will be overflowing!

     

     

    HH!!

    “A Ramsdens Cup win would be a unique trophy to add to our collection.

     

     

    A reminder to future generations of where we once were and how we pulled ourselves back from the abyss of distinction”
