Remember Henri Camara? Martin O’Neill paid a significant loan fee to sign him 10 years ago, in the considerable wake of Henrik Larsson. Henri flopped and soon lost his place in the team but the weight of responsibility thrust upon his frame was considerable. No one could come close to filling the gap left in the Celtic team.
Nadir Ciftci would do well to consider whose shoes he’s stepping into at Celtic. Last summer’s striker signings, John Guidetti and Stefan Scepovic could hardly muster a start the second half of the season. Leigh Griffiths, who arrived 18 months ago, got the striker’s gig most weeks, but Leigh came to Celtic with as illustrious a heritage as Nadir.
Never step into a great man’s shoes, but Nadir’s not doing that. This is the perfect time for a striker to join Celtic, I hope he has the appetite.
I see the great and the good in the media are flogging lyrical at the prospect of a prodigy arriving from Madrid. None of this has come from Celtic. The player may become available at some point but I reckon it remains a hard task convincing Real his immediate future should lie in Glasgow.

Natknow/rudi…
Kip time, must admit I was surprised there wasn’t more debate on here, anyways night. HH
rudicantfail…
The poll tax! Ihad my wages bumped due to a nutcase wife at the time for eight months.
Any of the English payed up yet?
Sipsini. ….
I payed for a lot of the Orcs who lived near me at the time….
You probably did too
Can’t believe the revisionism on here sometimes with people who didn’t pay their taxes
P.s. The ‘English’ paid in other ways mate

Auldheid…
I’m hopeful that the negative effect the CL has on so many clubs and on the competition itself will lead to a full European Wide League Set up withy Regional National Leagues in a pyramid arrangement.
Auldheid ….
Withy?
Pyramids?
I think ….,Moonbeams
======================
I think that entry to a European League from a National League on sporting merit would be part of the negotiations and desirable for clubs with ambition.
Anyway….
Nitey nite….
Anyone who didn’t pay the Poll Tax in the late 80s / early 90s (cannae remember exactly when)
I had to do it…..paid my social taxes when I lived in Glasgow…..fekin hell….couldn’t really afford it back then.
Maybe think about it,ey?
rudicantfail…
Educate me then, as far I know they got off the hook.
One of my mates,knowing I’m partial to a hot curry recently suggested one from Iceland. I looked at him like he was stupid,remembered he isnae and bought one.
Just tried it. First frozen curry I’ve ever had that was bliddy marvellous!

Not as hot as Jobo’s recommendation from earlier,mind…

Sipsini.
I unfortunately moved to England. …….
Just as the bassas increased Council Tax levels to ‘collect’ the shortfall
Oh yes …the English paid for Billy MacBilly next door to me in Glasgow ,mate
BMCUWP,
I’m still recovering from a curry on Sunday, never again.
My feck the Tory bassas have went for the jugular whilst lining their pockets.

Iceland – the place famous for Volcanoes…
Zat why the curry’s called Atomic and blows your lid aff?
rudicantfail…
I’d be surprised if the shortfall was paid in full, as for billy boy,
I’ve not heard a peep;)

Off the top of my head-a long time since bothered wi H&S!-blue signage is for warnings like Fire door Keep closed or Hard hats must be worn. Green signage is for advice like those signs pointing to the exits,etc.
Ffs,I canny even remember the correct terminology,but the gist is pretty close.

This was surprisingly good. Although at two in the morning,anything tastes good.
But I doubt it will be my lid getting blown off…
Anyway,
I gather we haven’t signed Citci yet. I expect him to be offered the same money as Stuart Armstrong. Same age,former club and fee. Anything more demanded by him or PvH will see the deal collapse.

A man after my own heart. How’s the holiday going?
BMCUWP
Fantastic mate…Bar/beach today and visit ancient hindu ruins tomorrow.
This place rocks………….and to think I wanted to send the R*nge*s here all those years ago :-)
Aff oot…take care mate.
Boab
Can you imagine Citci having to go back to the Utd training ground if it colllapsed.
More jokes about nadir :o)
Night and KTF
PS Hows that passport doing? :o)
TEUCHTERARLA
Spunks like your day ahead will be better than mine,bud!
Although I’ll be driving through the Avebury stone circle in about fourteen hours. So there’s yer kulchur right there!!
RWE
I think PvH may have to learn compromise.
No reply yet on the passport,mate. Only got my P60 (alternate form of ID as required) last week.
Say hi to the weans next time you see them-they all look great in the colours!

First word in that post should be-sounds. Bliddy contraption!
Not want to cause any trouble so, I’ll sneak in when nobdies about and confirm that the spirit of Murdo’s hunskelpings and the sheer Timdomonium that was joyfully taken part in in the ole Jungle and the vision’s at the back of my mind of, the old uncovered-underdog-Celtic-ends at Hamdump and ibrokes echoing YNWA’s that lifted Celtic teams to almost the hight of Mr Stein, not to mention the prayers of those who know the nature of my foe which couldn’t / can’t be underestimated….my foe is in remission….the fight continues….
….LOVE you all…oot. YNWA.

I was there too.
But at the Celtic end.
`62 Celtic cha cha cha taken from Brazil clap clap clap.
`62 World Cup in Chile.
Magical days.
From despair to triumph in`67.
No “demands” from the punters.
Just hope.
Subsequently fulfilled by big Jock.
Keep well,pal.
I’ve read some sanctimonious posts recently from those with a military background who had some thoughts on the IRA , perhaps those who put their heads above the parapet on that occasion would care to pop their heads up again and give us the benefit of their views on state terrorism, concealment and collusion?

For every scandalous event you produce, there will be a “tit for tat.”
Is that really what you want?

Sanctamonious – holier than thou, smug, pious, you chose which suits you best my friend.
If you chose to spout off about one side in a conflict you’d be naive in the extreme not to expect some flak back.
Simply redressing your previous contributions.
