Provocative views about mental health as entertainment

220

Tomorrow’s visit of Ross County is one of the two oasis of home games amid our eight away game deluge.  Celtic comfortably swept County aside when the teams met in Dingwall last month.  That 1-4 win was followed by a dip in from by Celtic, who struggled to overcome Hamilton next time out, and throughout December.

County have had two draws and three defeats in their last five outings, including a Scottish Cup exit at Ayr.  If we can get the heavy lifting done early, tomorrow should be an opportunity for Neil Lennon to rest and experiment.

It will be interesting to hear if Sky Sports react to Celtic’s letter of yesterday regarding the comments of Kris Boyd about Leigh Griffiths.  Football is an entertainment business, the question for Sky is, do they regard provocative views about mental health as entertainment.  I don’t think we will be reassured by their response.

  2. Hello again all you young rebels.

     

     

    ART OF WAR

     

    Great post that at 10.46 pm

     

    Loved the bit about Mohammed Salim, we’ve had so many young

     

    Indian kids applying for registration down at our local soccer club

     

    lately.

     

    I’ve said recently on CQN how i always relate his story to anybody

     

    that will listen about his time at Celtic, and i get the parents and kids

     

    asking me about how he could play without boots and only bandaged

     

    feet, totally amazes me, but there is a utube video …5 FACTS ABOUT

     

    MOHAMMED SALIM.. which shows Celtic were really a very compassionate

     

    club back in the day.

     

    Have a look at it and enjoy.

  3. With a week to go in this window I expect Neil to get the players he wants, if these players want to come ….

     

     

    If not, I think this squad who won their first ever Europa league group and the first trophy of the season in the bag are not as bad as they are made out to be .. Klimala & Soro to try and dislodge the bhoys already in possession of a first team jersey … maybe this time in 7 days things might change but need to be very good players to replace the players who are already there

  4. Just thought, if wee Jeremy played with bandaged feet, would

     

    the huns have razor blades inserted in their studs?

     

    Naw, shirley naw?

     

    H.H . Mick

  5. Melbourne, we have always been inclusive.

     

     

    I always love the ‘firsts’ by Celtic.

     

     

    It’s what sets us apart.

     

     

    Lazy dynamite post earlier brought joy to my heart.

     

     

    You’re not doing too bad yourself.

  6. Early Indians dealt with the problem of their female members when approaching their period was to to stick them in a tent away from the general populace with only water to get by.

     

     

    I suggested this to the missus and am currently waiting for the ambulance.

    Ha ha … I turned JavaScript on expecting to see Soro … but laughed at Gerry Cee…

     

     

    If in contact with 16roads tell him to get his apology in and get back on these pages … we have a big couple of months to enjoy :-)

  8. ART OF WAR

     

     

    Yes, thats the ethos of our club.

     

    I keep giving out the wee mhans hoops tops to new bhoys at

     

    our groung when he outgrows them.

     

    Gave an away top to one Sudanese bhoy and didn’t see him wearing

     

    it for a few weeks, jokingly asked his parents why? said ” he wears it

     

    to bed ”

     

    That’ll do for me lol.

  9. Mick. Eat. Sleep. Celtic.

     

     

    Think I bought every CQN badge from Celticrollercoaster but gave them away to a deserving kid. Result. Nothing to show for it.

     

     

    Was thinking of doing a charity gig called ‘my left boot’ whereby I would write to all clubs and ask for players boots (signed) with monies going to grassroots. But have no clout. Doesn’t stop me thinking.

  10. GFTB- hark the herald angels sing

     

    GFTB- don’t do nothing.

     

     

    I’m an influencer, you’re influenza.

  11. ART OF WAR

     

     

    Good idea that, remember back in the day, Tommy Burns

     

    Paul McStay etc. throwing their boots into the jungle and a

     

    mad scramble with hundreds trying to grab them, can’t

     

    really recall if any player did that back in the 50’s 60’s.

     

    Embdy… TONTINE TIM maybe

  13. Tommy and Paul were international players, but i know what you

     

    mean lol.

     

    Off now to hunt for a club for Moreloss.

     

    There’s a wee club down the road from us called NAR NAR GOON

     

    soccer club, apparently it’s Aboriginal meaning is Native Bear, but

     

    to me the Goon bit is correct.

  17. Mick, just suspicious as at the age of 92 he sent me his bowling club badge. Bowling club FFS.

     

     

    He was over here last year @ 91 and described how the trucking had changed since he first took an 18 wheeler out in the 50’s. Got it down on video, including how he met his missus.

     

     

    Thing about long distance driving is skin cancer. He’s been cut.

     

     

    Anyway enough.

  19. A week to go and somehow there is no anxiety about the closing window.

     

    Are we happy with the personnel at our disposal?

     

    Are we strong enough to go undefeated for the rest of the season?

     

    Will “undefeated” be enough?
