Players are not machines. They cannot go into every game with the same energy or motivation. You will remember the only time Celtic beat reigning European champions, our win over Milan in 2007, was followed by a scare against Gretna, which required two goals in the final 4 minutes to recuse the points. This is not a criticism, they are human and react accordingly.
In this respect, visiting St Mirren on Sunday is probably a good thing. Returning to the scene of our only domestic defeat this season should draw enough response from the tank to ensure we are not caught cold. Sometimes you are better off with a taxing game than facing relegation strugglers at home.
St Mirren are also in the comfort zone. They are fighting for a top six finish, which would be a ‘nice to have’, but is far removed from the fight-for-their-income consequences at the foot of the table. They also don’t have a new manager to provide a dead cat bounce. In the belief that Celtic play better against better opponents, a visit to Paisley is perfect.

Tontine Tim, The Hull manager did that years ago; also had a headset.
*so the alleged genius cannae think for himself
snake mountain
definitive,
Some may reckon that Nerds who are into He Man would know the difference between Snake Mountain and Castle Greyskull. Fair play, nothing wrong with Nerds. I couldn’t possibly comment.
To the ordinary working class supporter, Castle Greyskull is the perfect name for the Victorian lavvy.
If its good enough for the instigator Kirsty McCabe to call it Castle Greyskull and annoy the s@it out of the huns, then it’s good enough for me.
Another reason is that it’s so apt. If it looks like Castle Greyskull, smells like Castle Greyskull, as spooky as Castle Greyskull, as dingy as Castle Greyskull.
Then it is Castle Greyskull.
This ^^^^^^^
What happened to multitasking: It shouldn’t be that difficult to type when sleeping.
Wakey wakey.
Remember when loads of us reckoned we should have signed Ivan Toney . Wow , think we dodged a bullet.
Castle grayskull.
You should all go and research he man.
Utter tim.
Hero.
Good guy.
Shame on those casting aspersions on his home.

Bella Ciao – English Meaning (Partisan version)
One morning I woke up,
oh goodbye beautiful, goodbye beautiful, goodbye beautiful, bye, bye, bye
One morning I woke up
And I found the invader.
Oh partisan, take me away,
oh goodbye beautiful, goodbye beautiful, goodbye beautiful, bye, bye, bye
oh partisan, take me away
Because I feel as if I’m going to die.
And if I die a partisan,
oh goodbye beautiful, goodbye beautiful, goodbye beautiful, bye, bye, bye
and if I die a partisan
then you must bury me.
Bury me up in the mountain,
oh goodbye beautiful, goodbye beautiful, goodbye beautiful, bye, bye, bye
bury me up in the mountain
under the shade of a beautiful flower.
And the people who pass by,
oh goodbye beautiful, goodbye beautiful, goodbye beautiful, bye, bye, bye
and the people who pass by,
will tell me “what a beautiful flower.”
This is the flower of the partisan,
oh goodbye beautiful, goodbye beautiful, goodbye beautiful, bye, bye, bye
this is the flower of the partisan
who died for freedom.

A good few years ago in GLESGA…….You would see many wee Wummin pushing a PRAM around the streets with ” The Weeks Washin” in it.
You would see it every day.
LOL.
As a wee Bhoy, my wee Granny ( or Wee MAW as I always called her), would sometimes take me with her to the ” TOON HEID PUBLIC LAUNDRY”, before we got a washing machine in the early 1960’s to go with our NEW HOOSE….in Easterhoose.
Even then I can remember, my wee MAW using a WOODEN WRINGER that was clamped on to the Kitchen Sink, in order to squeesze out any excess water, before Hingin the washing out to dry on the clothes line…roon the back.
Some smaller items, would be HUNG on the Kitchen Pulley.
In 1970, my Uncle and Auntie had bought the very FIRST Colour TV in my Family. I watched the 1970 World Cup in their Hoose. It was amazing.
I thought my Auntie and Uncle were Very POSH.
LOL.
Soon after, my wee MAW and my Granda bought OUR FIRST Colour Telly for our Hoose. Our Parish Priest was very impressed, as were our Neighbours.
Suddenly, I also felt quite POSH !
LOL

Cheers Mate, but I think the Celtic Support sing about ” Celtic” in the Song ?
I have failed to hear the words properly.
BELLA CIAO is just Brilliant.
All the best.
HH Mate.
The ” TOON HEID” Public Laundry was called ” THE WASH HOOSE”….as were other Laundrys in dear ole Glesga back then.

Good morning all from The Good ‘n’ the Bad.
I will see some of you later in the Shippy.
MM – we will toast you today in 1 of yer auld haunts. 🥂🍻🍹
D :)
I remember playing in the middens and my granny throwing me a jeely peese (spelling?) from her 3rd floor tenement single end with the shared lavvy on the landing. Big bed Behind a curtain which we all piled into, top and tail. My uncles bike on a raised drying rack on the ceiling and toys under the bed.
Can’t remember the name of the pub on the corner, I used to sit outside it waiting on the grownups and getting the odd penny from exiting drunks.
Carnoustie St gone now, think it’s a flyover.
We were on holiday at my granny’s as we lived in Ardrossan and all the Glesga folk were on holiday In Ardrossan
Used to gather spuds from the farmers field and let them rot for a few months, then we’d bombard the orange walk picnic and run like hell.
Their crimplene toy soldier outfits getting shredded in the brambles as they chased us…
Them were the days
Ramble over

We used to make barras from old crates and pram wheels and make a fortune carrying drunk’s luggage from the train station In ardrossan to the Belfast boat for the 12th.
One particularly obnoxious catholic hating Orangeman gave me a good tip but probably regretted it when he opened his suitcase to find I had pissed in it when he went into a pub to top up his carry oot.
Got a hiding from my dad when the story reached his ears but heard him telling the tale and laughing with his mates the next day.

I’ll settle for the very attractive Ms Clare Grogan. Oh,I say. 💚
Rambling grows…

BELMONT BRIAN ( and maybe others ?).
just watch and listen to these Kids singing and ” DRUMMING” to the PAUL SIMON Song…” THE OBVIOUS CHILD”
Im NOT sure the Link will work for me ?
The Obvious Child (Paul Simon)
HH
BELMONT BRIAN…
I had a feeling that the LINK to the PAUL SIMON Song wouldnt work.
Try it for yourself on YOUTUBE.
The song is ” The OBVIOUS CHILD”, and there are Videos out there of Paul playing and singing along with a VAST NUMBER of African Singers and Drummers to this Song.
Thats what I call ” DRUMMING” !
LOL
HH Mate.
Enjoy your swally bhoys.
A sandwich walks into the Shipbank. The barman says, sorry we don’t sell food here. 😀

Sorry Mate but that is incorrect.
ANYTIME we have a CQN Bevvy in the SHIPPY, Frank the Owner and the Staff ALWAYS provide Rolls and Sandwiches during the session, and its ALL FREE of charge !
Thats is one reason why I always give the Staff a few quid before we leave.
