Paddy time, Europa and Remembrance

1055

Celtic recorded victories over Dundee and Hearts after their first two Champions League games but collected only one point from the two league games following the double header against Barcelona.  They also won after only two of their four Champions League qualifying games, so there is no reason to expect a convincing win against Inverness tomorrow.

Inverness slumped to a freak 1-5 defeat at home to Motherwell last week but that was their first defeat since the same team beat them earlier this season.  Like Celtic at the Camp Nou, they will be set on defending deeply at Celtic Park in order to prevent another collapse.  This could be an occasion for Paddy McCourt to prize them open.

I had a look at the Europa League group tables last night.  Udinese, who eclipsed us in the same competition last season, are bottom of their group this year, as are PSV Eindhoven, Sporting Lisbon, Athletic Bilbao (who beat Manchester Utd home and away last season) and Helsingborgs.  Other recent opponents Rapid Vienna and Hapoel Tel-Aviv are also bottom.

If you’re on Facebook there is a story on the CQN Magazine page about Benfica implying Celtic only beat Barcelona because of cheating.  Drop in and take a look.  On a related subject, I’ve some good material from Spartak in reserve for the days before their visit.

The Annual Remembrance Service, held by the Celtic Supporters’ Association, takes place tomorrow, in memory of Celtic fans no longer with us, with prayers offered for those departed during the last year, including Joe McBride.

The Mass, at St Michael’s at 1350 Gallowgate just up from Parkhead Cross, will start at 12:30 and should be over in around 30 minutes, after which refreshments will be available in the hall to warm you before you head to the game.  All are welcome to celebrate the memory of those who have gone before us.

Lost wedding ring alert! Someone found a wedding ring in Lisbon which was probably dropped by a Celtic fan. Let me know if you know who is walking around with their hand in their pocket this week.

Get your CQN Annual here, an enormous resource from the keyboards of Celtic fans!

  1. The Bluster and Peeeesh from the Busted Flush is remarkable……………….

     

     

    Sumbdy remind him anbout the details around the result………2 ………1……..

     

     

    What a total…….

     

     

     

     

    HHH.

  2. ASonOfDan,

     

     

    It is now the norm that the Green Brigade ‘dictate the pace’ amongst the fans whereas successful teams under M’ON and GS did not need this.

     

     

    They are part of the reason there is no atmosphere across the ground because they now dominate. I have no major beef with the Green Brigade overall but this precious bollocks is just nonsense.

    Aye, but it seems like we are the ones who are getting, and will be the victims of the Sting, but as it’s scotland, it’s par for the course.

    That’s no like you mi amigo, worried so I am.

     

     

    If the Lord and his cohorts come back and let them off, I honestly think they should be as well switching off the lights.

     

     

    Even the dogs on the street know thay have cheated, and to add insult to injury would be the last straw imo.

     

     

    Maybe they will surprise us :>)

    Coatdyke roundabout is a nightmare and I don’t drive but what cracks Mrs LB up is those that drive up in the wrong lane, drive round just so that they can through quicker.

     

     

    On Big Owens, not the same Pub since they revamped it. From circa 1980 to around 1992 you could find me in there most Wednesdays through to Sundays. Seldom in it these days but when I am, I still see some of the old crowd.

     

     

    Keep the Faith!

     

     

    Hail Hail!

  5. Doc & Lennybhoy.

     

     

    Evening chaps hope you are well.

     

    I currently have a 10 second tolerance limit before the off button is

     

    pressed when listening to the SDM propaganda on tv or radio.When out

     

    shopping I caught the back of the DR ! Mind blowing !

     

    Shame the work from the wordsmith BRTH will never appear in the MSM.

  6. SoAL,

     

     

    Not even sorted myself out, I don’t have a sugar daddy to bankroll my ticket purchases.

    If I ever meet you again in a street cafe, feel free to finish off my hamburger!!!

  8. Might some kind soul re-post the most excellent BRTH article…………??????

     

     

    Thanks in advance……….

     

     

     

    HH.

  9. Anyone going to the Monklands Hospital, especially during busy times, avoid that roundabout like the plague!

     

    If you go by Coatbridge College and Dunbeth Park, you’ll save yourself a lot of time and hassle.

     

    Yes, Coatbridge has a college. And a library!

  11. Doc is Neil Lennon 21:43:

     

     

    Not sure what the working relationship will be like between BDO and HMRC but it certainly will be HMRC that will drive the BTC fight.

     

     

    I’ll e-mail you but if I don’t give me a metaphoric jag Monday night.

     

     

    You meeting TimsinOhio tomorrow?

    More Breaking News:

     

    Ally LeCoist is disappointed at the postponement of Sunday’s top of the table clash against EC Moray due to police having a “major concern” about safety..

     

    However, he is satisfied at the recent FTT result.

     

    “Absolutely delighted, absolutely! A phyricc victory is definately better than a Cellic wan.”

    Posted too early there.

     

    There is nothing to learn, they only report what they think the Huns want to hear.

     

    Not the truth, nothing balanced, I know there are a couple who occasionally talk sense, but you have to read too much dross to get to something worth reading.

     

    The Internet Bampots are much more informative and interesting.

     

    You missed a cracking night last week, hopefully we’ll get another chance.

    I doubt HMRC BDO will have a Craigy Bhoy Duff and Phelps working relationship, but I’m sure it will be a healthy working relationship.

     

    Meeting TimsinOhio around 2:15pm at the Pools Office. Any CQNers there at the time are welcome to say hello.

     

    I’ll email him in the morning to confirm.

     

    How did our Coatbridge friends from table18 enjoy Lisbon, did they get home ok?
