One man’s cloud

1060

Adam Matthews has been on top form this season, his pace and partnership with Mikael Lustig have been unfailing for Celtic, so Neil Lennon will clearly feel robbed at a top players injury-enforced absence for three months.

It could be worse.

An injury to Forster, Ambrose, van Dijk or Izaguirre would be difficult to accommodate but we are not short of right side-midfield options.  James Forrest is now back from injury and although Derk Boerrigter joined as a left-sided player, he has already featured on the right for Celtic.  If Boerrigter plays on the left Samaras, Commons and Stokes can all feature on the right.

One man’s cloud is another’s silver lining, just ask Beram Kayal, who kept Victor Wanyama on the bench until he was injured in December 2011.  Victor got the run in the team he needed and never looked back.

Signing van Dijk was a response to an unexpected transfer request/not in the right frame of mind to pull a jersey on statement from Kelvin Wilson, but the major planned summer activity was to inject pace into the team for Champions League games, specifically through Boerrigter and Pukki.  For various reasons we’re not there yet, maybe Ajax at home later this month will change that.

Blown away by the 1254125 donations, which have flooded in since Friday. Each donor, from those who donated £5 to the several who gave £125 (like it!) are a credit to the spirit of those whose footsteps you walk in.  Promise to stop pestering with a link to the page.  Soon.

Thank you.

  1. canamalar prays Oscar can do it again on

    Ghuys,

     

    I honestly believe my part was and is minor, for me Morissey deserves most of the credit, he through his persistence took this by the scruff of the neck and dragged it through

    Thanks.

     

    Be interesting to see if any West of Scotland Labour MPs sponsor it when it is formally submitted.

     

    Earlier today I got acknowledgement of my letter to Salmond on other week’s shennaigans at Ibrox.

     

    Full reply, which I will post here, to follow.

     

    Nothing yet from Philip Hammonds office.

  3. ‘Catholic male following Celtic regularly is such a hackneyed idea’. Clue from ‘I’ cryptic crossword today.

     

    Vitriol to follow from neo-huns everywhere.

  4. Delighted to hear Amido scored, he needs all the encouragement he can get. I also agree with opening article, that Matthews injury might open the door for someone else to blossom, doesn’t stop me feeling angry about the tackle though.

  5. Evening Timland from a warm hun free mountain valley.

     

     

    Spent the most enjoyable day with ACGR and his young fella on the golf course, his young fella is a golfer, a proper golfer.

     

     

    We were just talking about this fella today, the story that has everything, even a porn star.

    Canamalar, Morrisey23rd, well don’t to the pair of you.

     

     

    We are in the twilight zone.

    Thanks mate….was probably nearer five past eight…..but it’s still a long time….

  10. Seems like I missed Kojo being handed his character.

     

     

    Typically, alas, there was no refutation merely a denial and a pitiful plea to stop being bullied so that he can continue to insult our players and managers.

     

     

    Anybody who continues to believe this “person” is a 90 year old skier and showbiz agent from LA deserves to swallow the Adrian Durham stuff that he’s peddling.

     

     

    Cue, “shoor Josie, shoor, shoor” in 3,2,1,…

    RS was hilarious tonight ..Jackson was particularly amusing ….trying his damnedest to pretend things weren’t too bad at Hundome……desperately wishing the entry of King….being outrageously hypocrical in his assessment of Walturd’s latest offering

     

     

    It was extremely amusing listening to him squirm …

     

     

    He knows not the service he does every Tim with his continued obfuscation and disregard for reality

     

     

     

    Batter on son yer doing a grand job

  12. 31003. I’m pretty certain I responded to a previous post by you. Just come out with something controversial and you will get plenty of feedback, believe me.

  13. The Cardigan has appeared from his bunker to speak to the faithful and he told the assembled masses tuning in on radio shows blogs and websites he was surprised by the loss of £14m in the club’s recent accounts

     

     

    Now that is urine

     

     

    Because he knew the accounts were going to be crap.

     

     

    He was never going to be there for any future finger pointing blame.

     

     

    He did his job getting the faithful gullible to cough up and keep the Green show on the road to avoid another extinction event

    Well done….great work…

     

    Was just thinking…maybe we should have a CQN Charity Fund that we raise money throughout the year and dispense accordingly when it merits it…

     

     

    Canalamar/morrisey23rd

     

    Great news, well done for continuing the fight to get the resolution heard at the AGM

  15. Canamalar @ 19:49, & Morissey,

     

     

    Well I’ve never been sure it was worth the candle…

     

     

    What I’ve never doubted your point was totally valid.

     

     

    Well done on getting your platform, no one on here needs to be told the persistent toil that got you there.

     

     

    The Responses Will be interesting…

     

     

    Hail Hail

  16. Doc

     

     

    Was trawling through something to send you pics wise.

     

     

    Afraid my website is still on the drawing board, and alas, won’t be up and running anytime soon, can’t persuade the Mrs to do it either.

     

     

    Anyways, came across this wee poem by Mrs. TET, I have posted it before, but worth a repost imo.

     

     

    I will sort something for you.

    Our Bobby came for Maggie, he offered her his hand.

     

     

    She asked if he was consort, to the promised land ?

     

     

    “Ah sure your passage will be safe, there’s plenty there to meet”

     

     

    Maggie smiled and went with him, till she felt the heat!

     

     

    “What is this place you take me, where is my throne and crown?

     

     

    Our Bobby said to Maggie, “I think your going down !”

     

     

    Ten brave men stood in judgement, deciding on her fate.

     

     

    The eternal burning fires of hell, or heavens pearly gates.

     

     

    The first to speak was Raymond, he looked her up and down

     

     

    With Francis, Joe and Michael standing close, Maggie gave a frown.

     

     

    While we hungered for justice, your judgement sealed our fate.

     

     

    It’s the fires of hell for you, ye bitch not heavens pearly gates.

     

     

    Then Thomas, Kevin, Kieran and Patsy all gave their thought

     

     

    If Maggie should enter the gates of paradise or not

     

     

    Martin smiled at Bobby they agreed her fate was sealed.

     

     

    For crimes again the IRISH, compassion she would not yield.

     

     

    Then St Peter gave a smile at Gods chosen men

     

     

    For they were her jury, those bold courageous ten.

     

     

    He asked what they decided, what is her fate, do tell ?

     

     

    Bobby smiled and pushed her, into the fiery bowels of hell.

    It was quite something the Walturd interview

     

     

     

    Quite frankly a disingenuous fabrication from start to finish

  18. 31003

     

     

    Post about songs and poppies and the current board and pevious boards and the fiancials and the state of the team and why aren’t we in a bigger league and you’ll be occupied full-time trying to reply to folk.
