Plucky green and gold tribute act

820

Last night when Neil Lennon told BBC Radio Scotland that Norwich’s second offer for Gary Hooper was “not as high as £6m” and that despite reports, the club had not tabled a fresh contract offer to the player, you would be forgiven for thinking the entire transfer saga was a product of fantasy.

Neil also confirmed Gary’s contract offer from Celtic is due to expire on 1 February, when I understand the player’s current representation deal also expires.

None of this counts where it really matters.  Gary continues to perform like a player on top of this game.  St Mirren next, then he can start the countdown to Juventus.  Put the Italians in their place and he will attract attention from more than a plucky green and gold tribute act.

A corner of Glasgow stood still today to bid farewell to Sean Fallon.  Sean’s 19 grandchildren delivered touching bidding prayers while son Sean recounted many of the times and habits which shaped his father’s life.  It was a fitting tribute to such a great life, marked by sincere and loving words from Sir Alex Ferguson.

  1. brnobhoy,

     

     

    your mate, is he from ML2 by any chance?

     

    A mate of my brother’s (i know him fairly well too) was also on plane and got his pic taken with Hoops….which he plastered on FB.

     

    small world or just coincidence?

     

     

    HAIL! HAIL!

    Who was the journalists who wrote that rubbish? Trouble torn? They just need to look at the club across the river, or is everything peachy there? I vowed never to buy another rag again and I’m sticking to it. Unbelievable tosh. We’re in the champions league and tfod are in the 3rd division. Jeezo.

    We need not only a trained intelligence, but also a warm heart. Then a sense of community and a sense of responsibility will arise naturally

    The time of the posts is an hour more than the correct time, anyone else noticed?

     

     

    it’s still an hour behind …………………..but it’s catching up -))))

    Used to live there ( the red brick houses, no. 64 ) but moved out about 13 year ago. You in the new estate next to the nursing home?

  7. Charliebhoy – thoughts and prayers with yours……..

     

     

     

    I’m looking for a bit of help from any Dundee based bhoys – a group of 11 of us are heading to Dundee for the weekend and are looking to see if there is any space on a

     

    csc bus heading up to hampden on Sunday also wondering if anyone has a heads up

     

    on a coach hire company that would be reasonable to bring us up from Edinburgh airport

     

    on Saturday morning and back on Monday

     

     

    Any help appreciated

     

     

    Hail Hail

  8. Can’t believe Glenn Hoddle is back on the telly after the awful things he said about disabled led people. Apparently we were all evil in our past lives. Another maniac. I wonder when Andy Gray will slither back on to the telly? Watch this space….

    Ole Ruprecht Graham lives on a parallel universe.

     

     

    His favourite word is ‘apparently’ – as in “someone who was there told me he apparently said…”

  12. Sevcovians threatning violence if DU supporters wear CW masks.

     

    Presstitutes look forward to blaming DU for bringing it on themselves.

     

    So, that’ll be that then.

    Yep thats the very same one!

     

    You an ex ML2er or know SC from elsewhere?

     

     

    He used to live just up the road from me and went to same school etc…..albeit a few years younger than me.

     

     

    HAIL! HAIL!

    Si nce sevconians will have to watch it in the pub-they are boycotting,remember-I look forward to them trashing their own boozers.

     

     

    Unless the tellies break down,of couse!

     

     

    Oh,wait…….

  15. Nothing surprises me about sleazy journos any more. It says it all really. They were trying to justify Hazard (an apt name) kicking that boy in the ribs last night too.

    Tuesday night:

     

    Neil Lennon: “Gary Hooper has not been offered a new deal.”

     

     

    Thursday morning

     

    SSN: “…Sky Sports News understands Celtic will accept offers of £8m for striker Gary Hooper after he turned down the club’s latest offer.”

     

     

    Ha Ha Ha

  17. …..Hearing that the DUFC fans are preparing to turn up to the game with the tribute act wearing “Lance” Murray masks…………………..

     

     

    ….that’ll do it……..!

    From a Juve TV interview with Conte .

     

     

    ” I have watched all of their European games . We have someone watching their Scottish games . They will have been watching us . We have many injuries , if that situation changes they will be watching a very different Juventus in Glasgow “

    RE Richard Wilson, Herald.. I stopped buying it because of him. His twitter account and “friends”reveals a lot too ..indeed the Herald sets its tone by allowing him to vent his nonsense. His end of yr rant in the Sunday herald a classic sevcovian denial/bitter piece.

     

     

    I don’t think he s that clever…

     

     

    The editors of the now rag,are obviously happy with this..

     

     

    Intelligent reminders that they are a tribute act and the articles he wrote in June and dec 2012 telling little stories, are effectively annoying- I’m certain.

    Yes I am a ML2er, from Holytown but managed to escape…

     

     

    I worked with SC in my last job and still keep in touch with him, hes also a few years younger than me

    They enjoy wrecking celtic boozers especially, Sharkeys is a good example, because their wretched team got beaten fair and square by celtic. Wasn’t even mentioned in any of the papers surprise, surprise. Men and women of all ages were beaten up by thugs with baseball bats and anything else they could get their hands on. I know this because my friend’s cousin was there that night and she hid in the toilet absolutely terrified.

     

     

    Lovely people

    Just like yourself Wilson was the last straw for me in the journal that used to be a newspaper, The Herald. I’ve not bought one since October, after over thirty years of seven-days-a-week purchasing (obviously including the Sunday Herald). If they’re happy to lose people like me (and you?) they must have some cunning plan in place!
