Odds on Madden sending off a Celtic player

539

Call me a cynic, but after recent “soft” red cards shown against Motherwell and Hamilton players facing Celtic, I sense a bit of “even themselves out” in store for us at Hampden on Sunday.  Memories of Hampden semi-finals against Inverness and Ross County, where we were denied progress and (probably) a trophy due to red cards feature heavily in the memory.

The best chance Newco have to stop Celtic and reach their second Scottish Cup final would be to fall poleaxed on the ground after each and every challenge from a Celtic player.  Bobby Madden may feel obliged to show that referees are not scared to red card Scotland’s top players.

Celtic being reduced to 10 men didn’t do Newco any good at Ibrox last month, but they would bite your hand off for a second crack at those numbers.

We need to play smart, especially Scott Brown, who I expect will be targeted.  Odds on Madden sending off a Celtic player will be short.

    Go onto richersounds.com and look at the Project turntables; the Project Primary or Project Essential 2 are great entry level. f you want to spend more, I’d recommend the Project Debut Carbon DC (which I have); you can even get it in green! Team it up with a Project Phono Stage or the Cambridge Audio Phono Stage (get MM/MC in case you change your turntable cartridge). Project also do an optical phono stage if you want to use the optical input on the Sonos (which I assume it will have).

     

     

    Worth nipping into Richer Sounds in Glasgow next time you are down for a game! You will get great advice in there

    Punmeister supreme as usual.

     

     

    However, I’m now at the sage of my life (having always been push at DIY) that if I can’t afford to get someone to do t for me, I can’t afford to get it done!

    Wise. Wiser than my approach…

     

     

    After 2 years of doing up a house I informed the missus that we’re not doing any more DIY or decorating before we move again.

     

     

    She has now taken this as her cue to spend her evenings on RightMove.

     

     

    I’m my own worst enemy…

    Did you get The Endless River?

     

    My Ryan bought me the cd, dvd and book boxed for my birthday a couple of years ago.

     

    I love it, even allowing for the lack of lyrics.

     

    18 tracks and only one with words. Gilmour guitar work is special though.

    I use B&W A7’s (and a wee B&W T7) for streaming if I’m not using the hifi. These are all streamed through Apple AirPort Express or AirPort Extreme and the sound is superb – all using optical cables.

     

     

    I have an Airport Express hooked up to my hi-fi and it streams the music using the amps Wolfson WM8740 DAC so the quality loss is minimal.

     

     

    Still not as good as vinyl but great when working away and I can just play tunes via my MacBook. I work from home so it’s much less effort than getting up to flip or change an album every 20 minutes!

    Did you hear that The Piper at the Gates of Dawn is being reissued too on mono vinyl?

    Was Pulse not released originally as four LPs,with the blinking red light?

     

     

    As well as other formats,obviously.

    I had Piper At The Gates of Dawn and A Saucerfull of Secrets in one double vinyl album.

     

     

    A Nice Pair.

     

     

    Hopefully it will turn up again.

  15. DD – it’s being released for Record Store day – an early start to make sure I can get it!

     

     

    BMCUWP it was released on vinyl with the blinking red light; the CD box also had the blinking red light. Less than £50 back in the day but several hundred quid now!

    You have been on here for circa 14 years. Why would you want to flonce now when history is in our grasp.

     

     

    We all over-react at times . Big deal. We have all done it . We move on.

     

    Your thoughts are always welcome and i am continually mindful that this blogs diversity is it’s potency and attraction.

     

     

    Anyway your blog moniker intrigues me. Does it represent when you first found the blog ? Or posted on it. ? Or as usual, am I totally misguided.

    I asked 31003 that when I first met him. By this time,we’d been sitting with my sister,chatting away,first-name terms obviously,for about an hour.

     

     

    I felt such a choob when he told me,and my sis ribbed me for days!

     

     

    It would be unfair to explain here why,but I’ll mail you the answer.

    It’s even better to see you posting again.Glad to see you posting again.

     

     

    I said to Ronnie last week that I didn’t think I’d renew my SB for next Season.

     

     

    I just received my form to renew,and I’m changing my mind by the minute,Now I’m going to renew,Doesn’t mean that I’ll get to many games, I’m a bit low, health wise, but I may manage a few games in the sunshine,if it show’s it’s face.

    Mailed you about Belfast in June,mate. What’s your thoughts?

  24. GuyFawkesaforeverhero on

    No fixtures yet?

     

     

    Another reason to explain the delay, if the first game is Easter Road, will be Police Scotland’s struggle to administer the distribution of ‘comps’ for John McGinn’s 15,000 Clydebank relatives.
