It took a late goal from Anthony Stokes to secure Celtic’s win at Tannadice in August. That led to a five match unbeaten run for Dundee United, which ended two weeks ago at Pittodrie before Inverness knocked 10-man United out of the League Cup on Tuesday with a 120th minute goal.
Jackie McNamara has stabilised his team and they are likely to finish in the top three this season, but the defeat on Tuesday, which led to a storm of controversy over the behaviour of Nadir Ciftci, will be a major challenge ahead of United’s trip to Celtic Park. The champions should win comfortably.
There was little glibness evident in The Herald’s sombre interview with Dave King, published this morning. Despite apparently getting along famously with antagonists on either of Rangers International shareholding, he was unable to reach a deal, perhaps because he didn’t speak to the Organ Grinder behind the club playing in Rangers colours.
Indeed, neither King, nor anyone else trying to oust, or do a deal with, the current board, knows the ultimate beneficiary behind Blue Pitch Holdings et al. Is it you? It’s not me, but I suppose that’s what everyone is saying right now.
That question, is the only show in town.
King wrapped up his comments to The Herald by saying “Over the last two years we have all witnessed the destructive value when individuals, who should be putting the club first, advance personal agendas through the media in an attempt to influence the most important stakeholder in Rangers Football Club – the fans”.
Self-awareness is a rare thing.
Mr King is 100% correct on the destructive influence those who have divided his new favourite club have had. Without the modestly self-named Blue Knights causing ultimately unproductive havoc, Charles Green’s consortium would surely not have over-paid and under-charged, leading to the situation King believes could lead to administration. The question now for those on the outside is, do they have the votes, or are they just peeing on the Broxy Bear Burgers?

“On the brightside Celtic have never won a group stage game that broony has played in. :)”
Not true
Scott played when we beat Milan 2:1 in 2007, Donetsk 2:1 in 07, Villareal 2:0 in 08, Spartak 3:2 & 2:1 games in 2012,

Sorry

SFTB, I ordered the Mag from my iPad, same operating system, no problems.

I don’t have an i-pad. I can always use snail mail to the address given on the e mail but I highlighted the issue because winning captains might lose out on some orders if this link cannot be fixed for Mac computer and phone users
Sftb,
It was a daft optimistic stat. And definitely not a slight on my fellow Fifer.
HH.
I’m retracting that last statement, just tried it again to see what happened, as you say it goes to a post. Maybe I ordered from the laptop.
Confused, it was only yesterday and I can’t remember.

The “buy now” tab /box is missing today. Don’t know if P67 can add. Other option is to go to yesterday’s article and order from there.
Happy reading!
Hearing the news of PL’s venturing into the world of Chinese business, I found myself momentarily caught in two minds about how I felt about this venture.
I want my beloved Celtic to advance as far as possible in the upper echelons of world football, to be in among the big boys of the soccer world. But do I want our progress to come at the expense of poor hard pressed workers in some far off land. The answer is a very loud “No”.
We should not allow the vision of the founding fathers of our club to be forgotten for financial gain. We came into existence out of a desire to alleviate the sufferings of the downtrodden in the east end of Glasgow. Surely we should not wish to enter into financial arrangements with any person or company that disregards the rights of human beings.

14:19 on 1 November, 2013The three game ban is excessive but we’re never going to get anything, not since the referee ‘strike’
Added to the bigot Dallas being in a position of power at UEFA.
Wasn’t working on my iPad earlier but ok now, don’t touch magazine but the method of payment….worked for me…

Embdae know what ban the uber ugly hun Alex Rae got for nearly decapitating a player in a Euro game for the deid team?
!!Bada Bing!!
You can guarantee that if it were a player from Deidco the MSM would have been hounding Dallas for weeks to intervene on his behalf for the good of Scottish football.
The appeal was never going to be successful.

Maybe a good thing mate
Played 2 with brown – 2 defeats
Played 1 without brown – 1 victory

Thought the same myself mate, although I would rather have him playing than not, think we will do the biz either way.
H.H.
I see we are trying to curry favour in china.
By for now
setting free the bears supports Celtic’s best fighter- Wee Oscar Knox
The graphic is awaiting the correct link so I added a link back to CQN late last night. Thought I’d get it first thing! Paul has now added the order function below his post so you can now order from there.
Sorry for the confusion!
Spiersy helping peddle the myth that it’s all gone wrong at the Tribute Klub only in the last twa years…………………….helpfully obscuring the “flamboyant” real culprit………….
Shameful.

True…Newcastle are the biggest underachieving club in England. No trophy since 1968-69 Uefa Cup, when the huns gave Europe a taste of what was to come by rioting at St. James’s park and laying siege to the city.
They like to call the north east a hotbed of football but I doubt if its big three clubs can muster more than four trophies between them in half a century.
A question I was asked the other day.
Were there any arrests made or charges brought as a result of vandalism at Ajax game?
Don’t know what all the fuss is about our delegation to China.
We just want to sell 2 or 3 million jerseys there every year.
What harm can that do?
Quonno,
Not one, and here’s a wee snippet, banned Ajax fans were allowed to travel to Scotland because the Scottish police had no objections

I am taking it personally having been overlooked for the China detail.
I can say thank you in both Manderin and traditional Chinese am 7th grade on Chinese chopsticks the longest of all enabling reach fully to the centre of a large table. And of course my first game was Celtic v China 1977.
Thanks for all the help. annual has now been ordered.
Hope I am not exploiting Santa and his unpaid elves by doing so.

blue knights/black knights lol
taking pythons holy grail out of context
They are/were the club who like to say ‘GEEZ’…..
pity no one is tho,
shock awakening when they have to match income and expenditure
They just dont learn.
I see the share holding scam is back again. Ive just had a call from the “US company” that are taking over celtic but are 4% short and are willing to pay me £10 to £18 per share……..
Bawbag.

livibhoy-tbh i thought it might have went down to 2 games.HH
Sorry,anyone saying we wont miss Broony in Amsterdam is talking guff.In saying that,he brought it on himself.He is my favourite player,our beating heart,love the boy,but if you kick out,no matter how lightly,some refs will see it as violent conduct.UEFA will nearly always agree.We should all know how Broony feels at missing out in these games.A hard lesson learned.
