No one offered Celtic job yet

1032

Roy Keane is due at a press conference in Dublin this afternoon and he is sure to be asked about Daily Mail reports this afternoon that he is set to be appointed Celtic manager as early as tomorrow.

It’s pretty clear Celtic have spoken to Keane but NO ONE HAS THE JOB YET, the Club are still speaking to a number of candidates.

We’re going to remain hostages to news reports for a while. The sooner things are sorted the better.

If you missed it earlier………

Lisbon Lion John Hughes is joining Brogan Rogan, Auldheid and Angela Haggerty for a CQN Question and Answer evening at the Manor Club, Wimbledon, on 21 June. The event is ticket only, so let me know if you would like to attend, celticquicknews@gmail.com

    I see that some folk are questioning the contract extensions of Izzie and Lustig. Amazing…..

     

     

    Not sure if this is driven by an unending desire to criticize Celtic and/or Peter Lawell….or just a case of living in the 60′s when managers were responsible for everything – including things that they weren’t qualified to do.

     

     

    By any measure, these contract extensions are good for Celtic.

  4. The Black Pudding Wars.

     

    aka The Two Day War

     

     

    1st April to 2nd April 2025

     

     

    As the sweet fruits of independence came to be tasted by the Scottish nation the numerous communities in the country decided “Ahm havin a bit of that” as nationalistic fervour paradoxically pushed itself to its logical conclusion.

     

     

    And so it came that on 1st Jan 2025 Lewis became an independent nation raising it’s national flag on which the famous Stornoway black pudding was emblazoned on a white diamond sitting on a green background . President and First Minister Hebcelt did the unfurling to the tune which he had persuaded his Cooncil was “With Cat Like Tread” from The Pirates of Penzance, but to the ear of any discerning Celt sounded like ” Hail Hail the Celts are here”

     

     

    Meanwhile over on Jura the unconsciously named Papist Popular Front had papped oot the mainland government lackeys after enticing them into an evening of Isle of Jura 10 year old tasting. The unconscious but very happy recipients were bundled into two rowboats, handed a set of oars and pointed East. As revolutions go it was one of the most bloodless and one of the happiest in the history of the world. The Jura flag of a red black pudding against a white diamond on a light blue background was raised to the tune of Marching Through Georgia – but Hebcelt kent fine what the Jura Papists Party meant.

     

     

    In the first month each independent realm went about their business happily exporting their version of black pudding to the world, but so good and so well known was the Stornoway version that it’s sales far exceeded and so impoverished it’s island neighbour.

     

     

    Although whiskey sales compensated Jura somewhat, sales of Spirit of Lewis fell to a degree that by 31 March 2025 each nation would have been at each others throat but for the sea distance separating them.

     

     

    However in the world of 2025 distance had become no object and Lewis under the cunning leadership of Hebcelt went to war.

     

     

    The weapon of mass destruction was inevitably the Stornoway black pudding. Loading tons on to two Chinooks hired for the purpose, the Stornoway Celts headed south. Stopping to refuel both transport and their thirst in a Tobermory pub ( otherwise it would have been The One Day War ) the throaty sound of the twin Chinooks rotors woke the unconsciously named Jura Papists from their overnight slumber.

     

     

    Before the Jura Papist Defense Force could rush to their Buckie Bottle Bank defense system, the Chinooks roared in and dumped 12 tons of Stornoway ‘ s best on the Jura Black Pudding factory. This not only put it out of commission for 6 months, it ensured that thereafter every Jura black pudding tasted exactly like it’s Stornoway counterpart, which being sold at a third less in price because of mass production ( such was demand the local RC church had been bought over to increase output ) meant that the Jura Papists had to do walking away and papped themselves oot.

     

     

    Footnote: After a series of similarly caused confrontations elsewhere the dwellers of the independent Scottish communities in 2050 decided they were better together, but drew the line at the border with their neighbour to the south stockpiling it’s supply of Chinooks…..

     

     

     

     

     

    Oh and Hebcelt was awarded 5 years supply of Stornoway black pudding and Spirit of Lewis whiskey for his deed of daring do.
