Only fretful talking up an early return

125

Best of luck to Jonny Hayes, who will return to Aberdeen after three years at Celtic.  He arrived as the classic antithesis to a ‘project player’; after a seven figure deal , just shy of his 30th birthday.  His time will be remembered for that goal at Ibrox and some solid performances in Europe.

Weekend briefing by Newco said they hope to accommodate some fans at games by late August is aspirational, subject to Scottish Government clearance and ahead of what most clubs are prepared to say at this point.  Unlike cinemas or churches, football stadiums are outdoors and they have nominated seating that is easy to steward.  They should be in the first wave of opening up, but no one in the game is in control of what that will happen.  Clubs with less need to fret are less likely to talk-up an early opening.

    I too pay by four instalments, 0% interest but there is a £30 arrangement fee. The arrangement fee will be due July, with my first instalment. Then three payments in August, September and October. My ST is £666, total I will pay will be £696, which includes the £30 arrangement fee paid to V12 finance.

     

    Keep the Faith!

     

    Hail Hail!

    Exactly.

     

     

    That part of their statement gave the game away.

     

     

    They are desperate and selling only 32k season-tickets will hole them below the waterline.

    “So much for the demented saying we could have finished the league.No contact training allowed again.Another week to wait,on a Government decision.Still up in the air,even then.”

    Instead of blaming Neil Doncaster for being in cahoots with Peter Lawwell, it will now be Nicola Sturgeon’s fault fror not being as accomodating as “Oor Loyalist Boris”

  10. Getting our arses kicked in the pre-season cup again…

     

     

    state of the art sportswear, Hagi Bear, Lyndon Dykes, 32k tickets, refurbished superstore, MyGers luncheon vouchers, what Kris Boyd said whenever and unbeaten in 3 months!

     

     

    C’mon Celtic….Not good enough.

  11. Can’t believe they’re going to beat us to Lyndon ‘6 goals on grass’ Dykes. That should see them home and hosed for yet another close season cup. Well done Gerrard. Great effort.

    It’s amazing what 3 months of no football can do to their brains.

     

     

    When the Europa League fixtures were announced I saw many a bluenose take aim at the SPFL. You see, the decision to end the season early (which they voted for) has put them at a competitive disadvantage to Leverkusen.

     

     

    Nevermind the fact they were outclassed and 3-1 flattered them.

     

     

    Saw one chap claim the title was handed to Celtic because Rangers could have come back. Only for a Tim to remind him what get said after the St Johnstone game: “the league is 100% gone”

  13. The new Season is coming soon.

     

     

    Only the Lord Almighty could let what is happening happen.

     

     

    Warning signs – Right Left and Centre.

     

     

    To be honest fitba isnae all that Important to me – I Loved playing it and Loved watching Big Roy and the Maestro especially.

     

     

    I hope Celtic PLC don’t take the Celtic Support for granted.

     

     

    I know how to sort particular computer problems because I’m amongst many other things a Certified Microsoft dude.

  14. Timaloy29,

     

     

    You are only as good as your “last overinflated story of yourself” it seems….

     

     

    We are muck at this pre-season thing.

  15. For all the feel good stories, Sevco are one UEFA defeat in September away from ABC – Administration Before Christmas.

  16. Very humid here in mississauga(Toronto) day in the house again with a/c full blast.

     

     

    Received email this morning from the Irish club saying i had won second prize in there monthly raffle.

     

     

    Gift basket containing a bottle of whiskey but i dont drink the stuff so i guess son in law will get a wee gift.😉

  17. Seems like we are a bit short in the central defence. Maybe a loan deal with Newcastle’s Fabian Schar could be hammered out. I think we were interested in him a few seasons ago when he played in Spain?

  18. Lennybhoy @ 1:16 not the same deal as mine. Mine is direct with the club no arrangement fee or interest H H Hebcelt

  19. The Hour is late, but Imagine if you can, those protesting……

     

     

    Nothing new Under the Sun.

     

     

    Noone happier than me when Pike is done like a Kipper.

    Presumably that’s why you are allowed to smoke in football stadiums.

  21. Funnily enough Paul it is the “nominated seats” which will give Celtic and others problems if both the Scottish and Westminster governments give the okay for stadium type events. Would depend on the “social distancing” of course, at 2 metres whole rows of seats would have to be left vacant, and in some places pretty vacant. Not to mention a 2m gap between seats in each row. Be lucky to be able to use one in every six seats all told and even then how would one supporter pass another if he need to leave early to beat the er rush. No, we need to go back to the days of the old terraces, but with a nominated standing area for oneself. Yourself alone. It ticks all the boxes.

    Yip looks like we are getting our arses felt again in the pre-season cup😱
