News (confirmed by his club) that our next Champions League opponents Juventus have opened negotiations with Athletic Blibao striker Fernando Llorente, ahead of a possible free-transfer move in the summer, appears to put recent fantasy stories about Gary Hooper supposedly moving to Turin in the correct context. Liverpool, who several newspapers also ‘reported’ were interested in Hooper, signed a different striker this week.
The relentless pillage of Celtic player’s names used to sell newspapers is wearisome, probably more so to those at the club hoping to convince Hooper, and Victor Wanyama, to sign new contracts. Chances of re-signing Hooper if he thinks Juventus and Liverpool are about to bid for him: 0%. Chances if it’s relegation battlers from England: considerably higher. I see a new front has been opened today on Beram. We have to ensure another 28 days of this nonsense.
Llorente is a current Spanish international and played a huge part in Atheltic’s march to the Europa League final last season, but I would not be too concerned if Juventus tried to secure him this month. Moving to Turin is notoriously challenging for strikers and Llorente has never been based outside of the Basque country.

Izzy,
Have you looked at starting up yourself, working for small businesses – they all need reliable sparks?
gerry123
£1000 per game as far as I know – don’t know if that includes expenses or not, eg sacrificed goat and chalice etc etc…
gerry123
£900-£1000

Andrew67 – you are talking nonesense – no more debate with you
SFTB – its a happy clapper trait to constantly demand more and more information. I could trawl the accounts of Celtic year on year – its probably around “1M a year leaving the club.
DD sold the vast majority of his shares if not all in London City Airport – why should I check? His approach to investment is very well known.
Ouch.

Good evening guys, happy new year to you all. Half way through the CQN annual and wow, very hard to put it down. A real credit to Paul and everyone that has contributed. Anyway, Im off to Los Cristianos, Tenerife, in the morn with Mrs Greengray and all 4 little Greengrays and meeting inlaws over there. Got a text earlier telling me that accross road from hotel is The Hoops Bar! anyone know it?
greengray1967
Aye its a QPR pub…. :)
HH

>Just starting out my friend so still need the experience even though Im mid Thirties. (still the 2nd oldest apprentice in town after steak bake ) Im not the brightest of sparks anyway when it comes to running a business, I wouldn’t have a clue. Considering the current economic climate it seems a no-goer for a thick twat like me.

I’ve often thought that Chunkles is trying to play Cloughie….and falling very flat.
Whereas, luv ‘im or ‘ate ‘im, Clough was a clever man, Chunkles is a vicious vulture capitalist thug who’d cause a fight in a nunnery if he thought he could televise it and rake in some moolah.
Come tae think if it……
Izzy/Palacio – genuinely surprised there’s not more work about for experienced sparks just now. As always, there’s plenty about if you’re willing to travel, but that doesn’t work for everyone. Down the line, when the nuclear new build really starts, then there will be many years of work!
I take it you’ve gone through the usual agencies as well ?!

It’s a lot easier than what you might think, amigo.
Got your tools and transport – get business cards into all the empty shops – take it from there. Use Tax Credits, your entitled to these for your first year of self-employment regardless of income (unless the Tories sneakily changed this rule). The JS will give you a wee bit to help as well.
Just marketing (ie. business cards, wee website and mailers) and doing a good job. That’s should be all it takes to make a living from it.
There’s help out there for doing this – also, your local council can be the source of a lot of your work if you use it:

Don’t be put off by idea of it – it’s much much simpler than you might think.

Mate Im not experienced, so that’s maybe the biggest problem. I took an Adult Apprenticeship and despite being more qualified than a lot of sparks Im struggling to even get a sniff in 12 weeks.
Its always bad at this time of year but with the way things are you’re competing with experienced sparks to get a sparks labourer job.

“SFTB – its a happy clapper trait to constantly demand more and more information. I could trawl the accounts of Celtic year on year – its probably around “1M a year leaving the club. ”
Can’t say that I have noticed that trait but the corollary would be that mineshafters like to reach suppositions on the base of minimal evidence. Both are just meaningless jibes and get in the way of a meaningful evaluation of what’s going on. I based my projection of an annual loss of £2.25m on the basis of the figures you supplied. I am glad to accept your rounding down, by a factor of around 60%, as I feel it is important to be accurate and neither over-estimate nor under-estimate the money we lose to dividend payments.
“DD sold the vast majority of his shares if not all in London City Airport – why should I check? His approach to investment is very well known.”
You have misunderstood me as I failed to make my point clear. I was not suggesting that he had some London Airport shares left. What I was trying to say was, for example, let’s say he had some Bank of Ireland shares which he has never sold, I would be no more entitled to make a prediction on what he would do with his Celtic shares, based on his behaviour towards his BOI shares, than I would based on his London Airport shares.
However, if, as you say, he has always bought shares and always sold them to make a profit, then he will indeed do the same with his Celtic shares.
However, I do know of some people who have played the stock market to make money from commercial share trading but whose investment in a football club, has been an emotional one, not a profit based one. He may want the prestige of being Chairman of an important club more than the profit he could earn. I really do not know. What kind of figure do you reckon he would make on selling all Celtic shares just because we were in the EPL, for example? (I am just asking for your opinion here not for more facts, since any estimate you make could only be guesswork, informed guesswork but still guesswork)
Very few people have done a Fergus and managed to make money out of football shares. I assume that, since you gave Fergus a pass for honesty, that if DD turned round tomorrow and said “You’re right Neg Anon, once we break into the big time league, I will sell my shares at a good profit and Celtic will benefit from being in the better league” you would:-
a) feel vindicated and still oppose DD’s approach
b) feel vindicated but give DD the same pass you now give Fergus (or were you always a fan of his walking away with such a profit?)
c) Transfer your suspicions to our new owner/ majority shareholder and wonder what he/she/they were up to?

Thanks for that. Haven’t even considered it before so might just check it out.
My faith has been restored. Honestly, thanks.
Izzy/ T4,
Aye, another consideration for a sparky in the future is wind-farms.
Under massive development at the moment, and government funded, which means a reckless amount of money in that direction !
A lot of farmers are seeing pound signs and taking on the contracts for this on the smaller developments – it’s most unlikely they don’t have electrician qualifications. If you need a higher qualififcation for this Izzy, ask the JC about it, they might fund it for you if it doesn’t fall under the usual trade training courses they encourage.
Izzy,
Go for it amigo. HH
A67 – oops was getting mixed up with the big lad who gave Ambrose & Wilson a doing at CP. Couldn’t see the guy stepping down to an inferior league at his age though!
izzy – hope something comes up locally, but you might need to do some time in Aberdeen/Montrose/Cumbria to get the experience on your CV. Four nights away or doing 10 & 4 a fortnight, but it’s tough for family guys.
I think Canamalar works on sites down south and would have a better idea.
Good luck,
T4
Izzy, I know where you are coming from, there is a lot of Masonics in our trade also. I walked out a large Computer factory because I was overlooked for promotion, called them out, asked the SJIB to back me as I had all the credentials, the zombie did’nt. The SJIB said that I would not win it going down the Religious Discrimination route and advised me to drop it.
I have worked for an English and Welsh company in Scotland for the last 13 years being their man up here and it is bliss and hun free (Copyright TET)
Anyway you need a driving licence, make sure your CV has Installation and Maintenance Electrician. There are a lot of companies maintaining the buildings in Glasgow City Centre, foot soldiers going between buildings etc replacing lamps etc, Try and get in there, Andrew S dickson, GS Hall , ECG etc Also try S1 jobs and all the others, I found total jobs one of the best, and do not rule out working for any agencies, a wage is a wage.
Ask Paul for my email address if you want a chat.

And after watching Kill List, I now regularly check behind mirrors and under carpets for scored pentagrams. But I’m too scared to check the attic :((

It might upset his immediate view on the disruption to nature, but on consideration of the negative effects of other power sources, surely it winds “hands-up” !! :))

Izzy,
Keep the faith amigo. I was out of work for a while (my own doing, to be fair) and it was one of the most difficult times of my life, and most depressing. I look back to my lowest points then with dismay as true to the cliché, something was indeed around the corner.
Being out of work affects everything: confidence, hope, faith, relationships, as well as the obvious. It gives us to much time to criticise ourselves. You’d the think the powers that be were using unemployment and/or its threat as a way of keeping us all in our place ! Stay strong!
Congrats on the wee one on the way – looking forward to hearing you tell us of taking the wee one to his/ her first game :))

Post of the day for me….
Izzy…Keep the high baws low…It allways works out in the end (keep the faith young fella)
Off to my scratcher now.
Got to get some work done tomorrow.
Shouldn’t be too wild on the nightshift. Glasgow is not due a Full Moon until the 27th January :-)
Tommy, Palacio, Fortunes n BOBBY MURDOCH
Absolute Gentleman. You’ve no idea how much your time means to me.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, fellas.

My brother has just discovered half of the staff working for him are masons, are as his immediate managers.
This was revealed to him by a good friend.
There are two possibilities here:
1. His good friend didn’t realise his thinking on this…he might have known he was a Catholic, but possibly not.
2. The higher levels are on order to start opening up the secrecy at the bottom. It’s like revealing a wee secret polis force.
I’ll say no more. <:O
SFTB,
Of all fholk, I thought you’d be the first to get it.
There’s no point in howling when the full moon is there.
It’s when it’s being shy, it needs howled at to encourage itself to show its big moon face :))

Rascar, that simple selection of a chocolate has me here RIGHT now talking confidently.
I know you know Marchissio how good a person cab really be. ;))))))))))))

I’m Glad I am not easy to be categorised.
The moonhowlers get a bad rap on here.
I won’t have a bad word said against them.
Thanks bhoys.
Goodnight and God Bless.
