Tom Rogic is good. Very good. He has scored cup winning goals, league winning goals, scored against Newco at three different venues, and most deliciously, has scored Champions League qualification goals. That old football adage, “Yes, but can he do it when it really matters?”, is never asked about Tom.
With one year left on his existing Celtic contract, he is off with Australia to the World Cup, the most prominent shop window in the game, where good players with a one-year balance on their contracts are a premium.
The news that he signed a five-year contract yesterday has surprised many, including me. One week ago today, when I asked a ‘senior source at Celtic’ the prospects or retaining his services, I was not encouraged. “The money on offer in England……..”
This deal is an endorsement of the direction the club is heading from within the dressing room. Players know where the club is going, Tom knows. That’s why he has signed. I am sure his contract reflects his ability, but I am also sure he could have earned more elsewhere. And five years!! That’s nearly a Jim McLean!
Good luck tomorrow, Tom, let’s have a repeat of last season’s Cup Final.

It’s not been confirmed however in the event of Celtic achieving an unprecedented double treble there will be an open top bus through the Vogue Bar from King St to Rutherglen Main Street. Hh

Evening all, can I start with a minor reprimand?
Firstly to myself as I missed the quiz, sorry Mahe, parental duties. Tea and toast duly made, now back home.
Secondly, when a member of the CQN community takes time and effort to create a wee quiz then it should be recognized.
Dallas – never seen you posting so much on here in so short a time, ie. during the quiz. Surprised at ye bud.
Roy C – love your music and clips but distracted from the wee quiz that your CQN’er was putting on. Just wait a wee bit and we can all view and enjoy the good stuff you put up.
In short, a wee bit of respect when efforts have been expounded.
Finally, a double treble sits expectantly upon our breasts and the Mothers sands in our way. I now fancy Tom to score at anytime in 90. There will be goals.

Who would win a fight between…..
1. A heated driveway for a multimillionaire, of Celtic supporters money ?
Or,…..
2. An under Celtic Park non heated car park for Celtic supporters ?
…….oot.

3. An open top bus.
BMCUW @ 10.47. I don’t usually read his posts but I did after your comment and I have to say I have no idea what he’s on about, except he appears to be a fan of Mark McGhee and something about dogs.
BMCUW – congrats on your win, just noticed 2 e-mails from you in my junk-box, Will respond soon.
How is the fag fight going? I’m a serial vapist these days and not convinced it’s any better for you. If you gone cold T then respect buddy.
Roy C Those Gallagher bhoys were good but the best Gallagher of all was the legend from Donegal. Hh

Someone mentioned Virgo during the quiz and so had a stab at Kev J because McGhee sold Virgo to us from Brighton.
Big G I must agree….UTLR
AOW no need for a ‘reprimand’ just scroll by and enjoy the quiz if that’s your bag. It’s not for me but others enjoy it.

McGhee said Virgo was a great player….

Maybe he meant John.
Art of War, Jimmynotpaul’s trivia question set me off then there was a post about Charlie Nicholas that set me off again.
My contempt for Nicholas doesn’t show does it. , haha.
I was on a roll during the quiz. Iron Man brought that roll to an end . BT sports show many fine sports documentaries , Iron Man is up there with the best.
Another huge day for us tomorrow.
God night all and sleep well.
