  1. Morning all from a wet Aberdeen, well, it might be, but it’s still dark outside – not able to see any sheep from my window this morning.

     

    Looking at the picture of Paddy and Griff in front of the huns, the one thing that strikes me is the look of resignation on most of the faces in the crowd. Of course, there’s still enough hatred on display to ever make we want to set foot inside that place again – i hope the boss of the guy in the sky blue top has seen that picture, and see’s what a fine upstanding member of the community this clown is…..what a pathetic man.

     

    I suspect the majority know the truth, or perhaps it’s just dawning on them, that they are so far behind us now, they may never be more than a minor irritation, like Hamilton, or Inverness CT. they may enjoy an odd win from time to time, but it’ll be a long time before they are in any position to challenge our dominance again.

     

     

    What a lovely way to start the week……. :-)

    Or Tolbooth, where Iā€™m going to buy big Jimmy a pint one dayā€¦

    Aye..yer a good man.

  4. I’m fed up telling Huns for many years that in my Catholic schools that I attended, I wasn’t taught how to hate………..I was taught “LOVE ” yer fellow man no matter what religion…so much for Catholic schools dividing anybody !

     

     

    It is a fact that when someone doesn’t understand something…they fear it !

     

     

    HH

  5. In my long life I don’t think I have ever seen the Huns so delusional, and the easy explanation for this possible rise in being delusioned more than ever, is that they know they are well and truly gubbed on and off the pitch…their increased delusional thinking is simply clear evidence of the desperation that is becoming deeper and deeper..

     

    Simples.

  6. If someone can put a clip together of the penalty-dive incident and the handball (let’s all look the other way) penalty incident, contrasting the commentaries are quite telling.

     

     

    The Sevco dive is accompanied by extended commentary trying to convince one and all that this was a stone wall penalty, even making up a new rule: players must not present a hurdle to players running in the penalty area, particularly when it involves Sevco swan divers.

     

    Then you have the handball. When the replay shows the very clear handball, the commentary goes eerily quiet….

     

    Strange that hey!?

    MEA CULPA on 25TH SEPTEMBER 2017 7:15 AM

     

     

    The argument.

     

    There was definite contact therefore it`s a penalty.

     

     

    Yes. There was definite contact.

     

    Morelos foot comes down on Sumo`s leg and then Morelos tumbles.

     

     

    The upshot.

     

    The huns lost. Again.

    Silly songs.

     

     

    The reality. And tragic it is.

     

    ======================================================================================

     

    Would indigenous women and children feel safer if constitutional recognition, or even a treaty, eventuated in Australia? The Ā­answer must be a resounding ā€œNoā€.

     

     

    The recent national debate on indigenous issues has featured political leaders arguing about treaties and constitutional recognition. Ignoring the plight of indigenous women and children while elevating treaties and guilt Ā­assuasion to the top political priority during this election seems like denial and an evasion of horrifying levels of violence.

     

     

    Meanwhile, at the UN, the Human Rights Council was addressing the Ā­endemic violence indigenous women and girls worldwide are experiencing daily.

     

     

    This was a Ā­historic moment, Chief Wilton Ā­Littlechild said, as he introduced a panel of indigenous women that included Josephine Cashman, who serves on the Prime Ministerā€™s indigenous advisory council.

     

     

    Violence against women is a pervasive human rights violation throughout the world that the UN says is so significant that it ā€œprecludes the realisation of all other human rightsā€.

     

     

    Cashman told the council some hard truths about the problem in Australia, including the fact that Aboriginal women in some regions occupy the unenviable position of being the most victimised group of people in the world.

     

     

    Aboriginal women here are 37 times more likely to be hosĀ­pitalised than non-Aboriginal women for non-fatal family violence-related assaults.

     

     

    In the Northern Territory the rate of hospitalisation is up to 86 times higher for Aboriginal women.

     

     

    In central Australia, this figure is 95 times more likely for Aboriginal women.

     

     

    The deaths of Aboriginal women from such Ā­violence comprise the most frequent form of homicide in Australia today.

     

     

    Cashman told the council that violence against Aboriginal women and girls is ā€œthe Ā­uncomfortable truth that Australian governments need to confront honestly and Ā­urgentlyā€.

     

     

    In its bid for a position on the Human Rights Council, Australia must increase its efforts to prevent violence against indigenous women and girls. The council is made of 47 member states, elected by the majority of members of the UN General Assembly through direct and secret ballot. In voting, the General Ā­Assembly will take into account Australiaā€™s contribution to the promotion and protection of human rights, as well as its voluntary pledges and commitments.

     

     

    To its merit, the Australian government supported before the UN a joint resolution with Canada and New Zealand that states ā€œno country should be above scrutiny when it comes to their human rights recordsā€.

     

     

    It went on: ā€œCanada, Australia and New Zealand believe that Ā­efforts must start at home. Violence against women is a serious criminal justice, public health and social issue. Reducing the appalling rate of Ā­violence against indigenous women is a priority for all of our countries.ā€

     

     

    Australiaā€™s bid for a seat on the Human Rights Council is controversial, specifically in Ā­regards to asylum-seekers. But the true litmus test is this Ā­nationā€™s genuine commitment to reducing the epidemic rates of violence against indigenous women.

     

     

    With the Third Action plan under way, we are yet to see if the governmentā€™s promises before the UN are to be matched with a genuine commitment to reduce these alarming rates.

     

     

    We can look at what Canada does to address violence against indigenous women and girls.

     

     

    In addition to pushing for this issue to be addressed internationally, Canada commenced a national inquiry into the approximately 1200 cases of murdered and missing indigenous women and girls over the past three decades. The inquiry was prompted by a complaint from aboriginal womenā€™s bodies of Canada that not enough was being done to stop the violence. The UN Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women agreed.

     

     

    Cashman made several practical suggestions to protect against further harm and to take into Ā­consideration the impact of violence on victimā€™s families and Ā­communities.

     

     

    The Northern Territoryā€™s Sentenced to a Job program is having extraordinary success in reducing recidivism rates among male Ā­Aboriginal prisoners who largely serve sentences for ā€œacts intended to cause injuryā€.

     

     

    In this election campaign, both federal leaders should make a genuine commitment to ending violence against indigenous women. But it is the state and territory jurisdictions that are Ā­responsible for processing crimes against women and children through the courts and providing services to the victims.

     

     

    Federal support for programs that work to reduce the levels of violence are the priority. Both parties have made political commitments towards reducing violence against Australian women but they must make it priority.

     

     

    No doubt the political class will be mindful that failure to do so will affect our international standing before the UN and our worthwhile bid for membership of the Human Rights Council.

     

     

    ā€¢ An earlier version of this article referred to Ms Cashmanā€™s address as having been the first time Australian indigenous people had addressed the full Human Rights Council. In fact others, including UNSW law professor Megan Davis, have also addressed the world body.

    Was out of the loop with family stuff yesterday so for anyone that emailed about the latest competition I hope to reply tonight. Thanks for the fantastic support – well on course for a prize fund of over Ā£400 with the same amount going to the 2 very worthwhile charities.

     

    Want to play? Just drop a one-line email and I’ll get back to you tonight. cqnpredictor@gmail.com

  10. A little bit of tv/film trivia.

     

     

    English actor Michael Robbins who appeared in On The Buses as Arthur Rudge ( Olives husband) and numerous other tv shows and films was a devout Roman Catholic who carried out fantastic charity work, and was in fact presented with a “Papal” award for his charity work in 1987, just 5 years before he died aged 62.

     

     

    I thought he was an excellent actor ( although On The Buses was largely crap), especially playing the Butler by day and Drag Queen at night in The return of the Pink Panther.

     

    he always came across as a character with a very dry wit.

     

    I liked his performances.

    Give us more songs .

     

     

    That`s what the abused and assaulted members of the aboriginal community really need.

  12. Pog, if your ludgings are near to the Abbey Inn, no need to go to Nairn for a walk on the beach. Get yersel soon to Findhorn or Lossie. Glad you managed to get to the pub in Elgin. Loved it up in Moray, fantastic area, but just a tad too far from Paradise for me. Fair play to all the Bhoys who travel from there.

     

    HH

  13. Big Jimmy @ 7.47

     

     

    I Ä·new that about Michael Robbins. He was in a very good episode of Minder as a bathroom fittings wholesaler who sold a lot of lavvies to Arthur.

  14. I gather the smsm have got Tom Rogic to go their work for them. Rather than they criticising the deid team’s manager, they jump on TR’s comment.

     

     

    There would have been no need for that if it had been Neil Lennon. They would have been screaming for his being hung, drawn and quartered. Nary a one worthy of the name “journalist”.

  15. Goooood Morning CQN

     

    Nice morning to go to work and smile :-)

     

    Now what time does FtSFA offices open ? And what time can we expect that Trumpet who manages Sevco to be cited ? Or will it be swept under the carpet

     

    “RANGERS manager Pedro Caixinha furiously squared up to Celtic coach John Kennedy in the Ibrox tunnel at half-time of Saturdayā€™s O** F*** game” so he squared up to 2 of Celtics staff.

     

    Reagan, Bryson and Dickson, still in position ???

  16. Silver City 1888 on

    That’s the last thing a Celtic fan needs on a Monday morning, a British soldier pointing a big MF machine gun out the screen at him. Does Paul need to have a word with his advertisers or should I watch what websites I visit. I’ve not even been on the zombie sites for a laugh. #scratchingheadCSC

  17. Macjay – a bit early in the morning to start with that stuff. Why?

     

     

    I think you ignore the root causes of whatever social ills there are in the native Australian community. I think you ignore the many positive aspects of that community.

     

     

    Any of us could find stories to demonise any group of people. For example I could point you to crime plagued white working class communities from Dublin to Dresden, New York to New South Wales.

     

     

    Following the right wing logic you appear to employ I could argue that white people have an inherent problem.

     

     

    But I try not to use flawed logic which is actually illogical.

     

     

    But I like to end in positives so hereā€™s something for you to think about – what are the common causes of the problems faced by poor people, unemployed people, underemployed people of all races in various countries around the world?

     

     

    Have a nice day.

  18. Silver City – no one ever asks why the military have a free hand to radicalise young people and encourage them in to violent actions overseas!

     

     

    Not even 9am on a Monday and Iā€™m off on one……… ;)

    Macjay ā€“ a bit early in the morning to start with that stuff. Why?

     

    =================================================

     

     

    I didn`t start it.

     

    Or , to put it another way.

     

     

    I DIDN`T START IT.

     

     

    I trust you will , as a decent Tim , pose the same question to the poster who did.

  20. CLUTCHING at Straws = Telling LIES…..

     

     

    I have just watched BT Sports pundits ( approx 10 minutes) of the Celtic victory on Saturday on youtube this morning.

     

     

    Sutton. Craigan, McAllister and McLeish.

     

    mcLeish claiming that Ranjurs did really well in the 1st half and stopped Celtics midfield from operating ?

     

    He also claims that Ranjurs Pena stopped Scott Brown and Stuart Armstrong from getting forward ?

     

    McAllister largely agreeing with McLeish ?

     

    Craigan sitting there saying largely nothing about those claims, cos he knows they are crap but doesnt want to disagree with fellow Huns ?

     

    Big Sutty sitting there shaking his heid, and goes on to tell mcLeish and Co…” Pena was absent, and the only reason Celtic didnt score in the 1st half was because Celtic were WASTEFUL ! ”

     

    McLeish and Co determined to re write history by failing to mention the TWO efforts that Tom Rogic had, how Armstrong kicked the ground when only 8 yards out, and several other final passess in the Huns box that went astray ?

     

     

    Big Sutty agreeing with McLeish and co about Ranjurs penalty claim against Jozo…absolute crap, as Moralos DIVED about TWO FEET in the air before hitting Jozos leg !

     

     

    McLeish and McAllister claiming that Ranjurs ” ran out of gas in 2nd half”…no mention of Celtic MAKING THEM run out of gas ?

     

     

    This is the same CHUMP McLeish who when manager of Oldco claimed in a tv press conference..” Ranjurs….132 years of unsurpassed DIGNITY” !

     

    This was during their EBT Years !

     

    He only got success as manager of the Huns because of EBTs…and biased refs against Celtic.

     

     

    Whit a 100% Chump ! always was….always will be.

     

    HH

  21. I wonder how that census is going? You know the one. Taking into account the religious split of our fan base and extrapolating the fall in fans who are of the Jewish faith since the GB displayed their support of the Palestinian people?

     

     

    Yeah that one. How is that going?
