Neil Lennon did us all a favour yesterday by dismissing rumours that he was targeting a striker from Vitoria Guimaraes as nonsense this early in the transfer window. The guidelines are set for your summer ahead. As well as being nonsense, though, it is also profitable news fodder; just think of the amount of advertising which has been wrapped around this story.
What does this teach us? I reckon that the least informed contributions left on the CQN comments page are about as reliable as what passes for mainstream ‘news’. There is a good possibility that even the player didn’t know Celtic’s position on him until it was reported yesterday.
Celtic will be trailing up to 30 players at any point in time, all of whom will have passed one level of scrutiny, but at least 20 of whom would never pass all levels, even if a deal was possible. When players are being scrutinised the position of the club will always be to show courteous interest in proceedings. You and I know what this really amounts to.

Noo.. Forster, is a Keeper..!!
and THAT’S… Fur Sure!
But.. Ah don’t believe that we wull be able tae..well. Keep ..HIM.
As a Maitter of fact, Mebbe Forster wull go ..afore.. The Ithers.
Look at it …this Wey..
There is Only WAN KEEPER, TAE A FITBA’ TEAM.

So in the whole of the U.K.
That means.. well.. that Means.. Tae Heck wi’ it..

so let’s pit it this wey,then..
There Jist Isnae a Hellava Loat of Keepers.. Right?
And .. it is a Cinch thae there isnae a Helava Loat of
Keepers ,who a Bettah than .. Forster..
Hmm
So.. according tae the law of supply and demand..
That Means that Forster.. being the Best Keeeper in the U.K.
Must be in Great Demand..
Ergo..
That means then, That Forster is a Lead Pipe Cinch… tae Go First!

A mate dropped his family pet rabbit of many years. £400 to get it’s leg amputated. Vet said it might not survive operation.
I suggested he got it put doon for a tenner and tell family it never made it through the op.
£390 buys a lot of wine!

Good evening, how are you tonight? Yes, dental work is very expensive for animals. I mentioned on here a few weeks ago my big dug had five teeth removed at a cost of £264. He is insured but dental work is not included in the policy.
Weefra HH
Eh mumsnet? Is that a place you often frequent TSD? Why are you commenting on my post? I never mentioned you . I only asked for a poster to adopt brevity in their comments. Well if mumsnet is better in your experienced opinion i will accept that.
Still no laffing.
My Dear Kojo….
Ah Concur That Fraser Is A “Keepsie”….
If He Does Hiv His Mind Set Oan A Move..
Celtic Should Not Accept A Penny Less…
Than The Valuation Of England’s Hart…
Because Forster Is At Least As Competent Now…And Will Improve..
A Much Mair Straightforward Calculation..
Than Tryin’ To Assess The Relative Quality Of Mister Hooper…
In Comparison To Ither EPL Strikers..
Saint Stivs If we are talking about the same song, I would suggest that the line is “may the seagulls rise and pluck your eyes and may the water crush your shell,
and the natural gas will burn your ass and blow ye all to hell.

That seems quite reasonable – can you get me a dental appointment with your Vet?
:-)
Evenin fholks,
Just heard a rumour that Moisty and the Myth are pulling out the stops to sign Carlos Aguelar for Sevco – apparently, it’s a done deal? Anyone confirm? Just curious based on the fact they can’t….but what I heard from my regular bus driver, is that the fella’s so keen to go back, he’ll be there anyway, and sign officially in October when it (might) be legal.
PS. Is it true that one of these new fangled laptops with Windows 8 will start pouring me a new pint of guiness into my glass out of the USB port when I hit F5? Good selling point that. But givin the strict guiness storage and travel regulations, it MUST be teleported guiness?!? Technology’s great!…..when it works of course…..
PPS Canamalar, I had the exact same reaction as you at the charge against the 17yr old hun. Good to see you stick to your principles. It doesn’t matter how ugly his mind or his words are, it’s not illegal, and that’s because free speech over-rides the protection of tasteful words. He shouldn’t have been charged. Offensive should never equate to illegal. Hope you’re keeping well amigo. HH

Good thinking mi amigo >}
Aye she has, now her prob is no eating, hence the tooth oot.
J is in charge, so I have to do what I am told to do.
The pool is lovely just now, got the solar heating in today, and the temp has gone up a few deg, amazing what a few bits of hose can do.

if Lassad, Miku, Gershon, Rogne, Murphy & Paddy have left celtic park they will be thanked by the club. none of these players made a significant impact on the field and all were a drain on very limited resources.
I have a couple of hopes,
firstly, we somehow manage to get bangurra of the books asap;
secondly, we use the wages saved on those squad players leaving to secure 2 quality addition;
thirdly, we manage to secure hooper, fraser and/ or victor etc… on longer contract or we sell and replace like for like in terms of quality;
and finally, the young players such as, watt, george, mcgeogh etc… get more opportunities to develop in the team.
or in other words cut the squad size, improve the quality and supplement 16 to 18 first team players with 6 to 8 of the most talented/ promising academy bhoys every year.
celtic don’t earn enough money to run with a 25 man first team squad, so when we try to do it we end up with players who are never good enough and thus spend 98% of their time in the stand while collecting a more than decent wage.

Doing good mi amigo.
Normally we treat the animals ourselfs, the Mrs would know a fair bit about these things, and being a Dr. of sorts, she can write prescriptions, and we can get what we need from the pharmacy.
But when it comes to her own, she moves into panic mode, and pulling teeth is not on her radar.
I said the other night she ran a charity, she ran a rescue, that was why so many animals went through her hands.
Kitten Adoption was what it was, and her writing is well know in the cat world.

Kissed the Queen ?
Slightly different from what I used to sing as a teenager : > )
I’d have to find my ear phones to have a listen now Saint Stivs as Mrs corkcelt is a light sleeper and if I started playing music at this time I would not be flavour of the month. All I know is when we sing it at a session its “pluck your eyes”. Anyhow on that pleasant thought I’ll bid ye all good-night, Will have a listen to the link in the morra.
