  1. Celtic Mac on

    Watching City on MOTD only to notice that their new strip, yellow with dark hoops across the front, a bee like design reminiscent of one of ours from back in the day. The sting in the tale of course was Haaland, and it wouldn’t surprise me to hear Pep come out and say…..’There’s a buzz about the place’

    It’s like the saps in Harry Enfields I seen you coming.

    My friends in Celtic,

     

     

    A good solid 3 points at a ground where leagues are won or lost

     

     

    HH the journey continues.

  7. Greenpinata on

    On another topic that affects all of us.

     

     

    How refreshing to have a former Chancellor interject some sense in the energy crisis.

     

     

    How this country needs politicians of stature.

     

     

    The present incumbents in both Westminster and Holyrood are clueless, nonentities and pygmies in comparison.

    Dingwall must be just outside the Space – Time continuum coz for the love of me I could not stay in touch with the place for ninety minutes.

     

    ——–

     

    I saddens me to read such a comment displaying contempt for the wonderful town of Dingwall. Shame on you – must try harder!

    Those tory pygmies at Westminster know how to fleece us all since the witch privatised the family silver

     

     

    The EU divorce Bill of over £40Billion would have given every UK household £1600 to £1700 off their energy bills! What have we got for our money instead….?

     

     

    Staggering new chart from the IMF. We all know that increasing energy costs hit low income households hardest, but in the UK that impact will be the second biggest in the world, and the differential with the best off will also be the biggest. What is the gov’t going to do?

    EDF has raised its energy prices in France by just 4%, compared to the 54% increase consumers in UK have now been hit with.

     

     

    While it is largely owned by the French state, EDF – which stands for Électricité de France – is one of the largest electricity suppliers in the UK. The UK’s regional electricity companies were privatised in 1990, following the privatisation of British Gas in 1986.

     

     

    Like all other energy suppliers in the UK, EDF has raised its prices on this side of The Channel after the UK price cap was increased by £693 – or 54% per cent – due to the record increase in global gas prices. However, in France, EDF has been forced to take a £7billion pound hit to protect French households from the price rises.

    But…but….we’ve got wind turbines and wind farms.

     

     

    Remember we were told these would produce FREE energy!!!!!!

  11. David66 on

    Good morning all from a lovely sunny morning in the Garngad

     

     

    So we play catch up or play after Huns right up until we face them on 3rd September…Mmmmmmm

     

     

    Anyway another tough one this Sunday on a pitch that should be banned from any top flight league but when you have total incompetent, imbecile’s running the game then thems the apples….

     

     

    Any news on Hatate?

    Thanks for stating that so clearly. The Tories have broken the UK and sold off anything of worth, And then you combine that with Brexit, the stupidest act of self harm that any electorate has ever inflicted upon themselves and you end up here…

  14. ernie lynch on

    Withdrawing, for no valid reason other than to satiate a frenzy of populist nationalism, from an economic and political union we’d been a member of for 50 years has had all sorts of adverse effects.

     

     

    What’s the best course of action to take now?

     

     

    Proverbs 26:11?

    Independence and back into the EU.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Now you’re getting it.

     

     

    ####

     

     

    That Proverb could have been written with you in mind.

     

     

    Like a dog to its vomit.

     

     

    An independent Scotland would not meet the accession criteria for the EU.

     

     

    Any chance of joining would involve handing over control of the economy to Brussels.

     

     

    So much for Independence.

     

     

    Maybe, to be fair to the SNP, that’s why at one time Party policy was to leave the EU. That had a certain logical consistency to it.

     

     

    Another consequence of your stupidity would be a hard border at Gretna. Great idea for a country whose main export market is England. And exports to the EU going by truck would involve crossing two hard borders.

     

     

    Makes Brexit sound like a sensible idea.

  18. Back to Basics - Glass Half Full on

    Lionsroar67 – cheers.

     

     

    Great link.

     

     

    The guy who tweeted this was clearly focusing on the current energy cost crisis. (the variable impacting household income could, though, be anything)

     

     

    So, more broadly, this is a “gap between rich and poor” chart.

     

     

    Makes for shameful reading.

    Interesting and detailed post.

     

     

    However if I may add :- The pygmies are not just in Westminster they also inhabit Holyrood. ( Can you name any of the finance team in the SG. ? )

     

    Patrick Harvie is a government minister. Incidentally who voted for him ???

     

     

    The obvious answer in the medium term as we transfer over to a Hydrocarbon free economy is to optimise our assets.

     

     

    The North Sea has about 24 billion boe in addition to gas. Develop it and use it for the next 20 years and the trade off would be lower prices for the consumers.

     

     

    I know Mr Harvey would spit feathers, but politely ask him to protest against the major polluters. I’m sure the Chinese and Indians would welcome his input.

     

     

    HH to all.

    Good to see you engaging with the argument in such a constructive way without indulging in personal rancour or abuse.

    I read that exact comment about Proverbs 26:11 at the weekend.

     

     

    Nice bit of plagiarism there.

  24. ernie lynch on

    TOM MCLAUGHLIN on 8TH AUGUST 2022 9:41 AM

     

     

     

    It’s a well known and often quoted Biblical phrase. I suppose because the imagery is so striking.

     

     

     

    I’ve used it several times on here.

     

     

     

    The idea that it’s plagiarism to quote the Bible reflects poorly on your education.

    LR67 @ 6.18

     

     

    Bit of a dog’s breakfast — all headlines and little analysis.

     

     

    EU stuff — you need to dig deeper.

     

     

    We are paying that amount because if we hadn’t signed up then the EU would have played rough — even rougher than they are playing now and that is still pretty sore.

     

     

    The Treasury is happy because it sees that amount you mention being paid in slices over the next twenty plus years as being less than our EU net transfer over the next 3 to 4 years.

     

     

    To a bean counter that is a result.

     

     

    Energy prices — follow the money.

     

    They are currently dancing in the streets of Riyadh and Moscow this morning.

     

     

    Plus — even after that local disaster — energy prices are being gamed to the max by the big energy suppliers. And being gamed on a flawed market that was dreamed up by a bunch of teenage / free market / uber rationalist scribblers in the Treasury back in the day — and guess what their world view was just a Maggie friendly mirage.

     

     

    The Tories and their mentalist friends in government are just passing the costs coming out of the gas windfall / flawed energy markets straight to the consumer with limited help and no interest in trying to lower the self serving market spikes.

     

     

    My focus would be on the “Contracts for Difference” pricing arrangements that are part and parcel of the price setting arrangements for most new energy projects — specifically renewables. They were sold as being a balanced arrangement but I fear that they are turning out to have a heads I win / tails you lose vibe.

     

     

    Now who would have guessed that was going to be the outcome — with current electricity prices just where is the surplus going?

     

     

    Surplus — the gap between the strike price and the current market rate.

     

    Where is that huge amount of money going — back into the mix to lower bills or being syphoned off by the industry / retail / transmission cartel?

     

     

    No matter — big political point — we should have taxed residential energy consumption when we had the chance.

  26. MadMitch on

    Scotland goes independent then we have to “shut” the North Sea oil and gas industry down.

     

    We can only extract what we use locally — exporting oil and gas is now not the done thing.

     

     

    Scotland still in the UK then we can carry on as before as the UK is a hydrocarbon — small but growing — importer.

     

     

    Nat conundrum — local economic activity vs kid on freedom?

    No contempt from me. The point being that Celtic were only in Dingwall and yet might as well have been playing outside the Space – Time continuum given how difficult it was to try and stay in touch with the match in real time. And it is not as if attending the game was much easier to do, given, one Celtic FCs away ticket policy, and two Ross County’s home ticket policy. Not to mention the ridiculous situation where Celtic supporters in Great Britain and Ireland who subscribe to Celtic TV are prevented from watching the game live. Maybe a Celtic Satellite could provide a solution, but if we can’t get Almore’s cafe off the ground I wont hold out too much hope there. In the meantime, as opposed to spacetime, no, the good folks of Dingwall can rest easy on my account. Spread the word.

    Excelsior Stadium, Airdrie

     

     

    CELTIC… 9

     

     

    (Jacynta 30 secs, 41, 43, OG 13, Larisey 26, 36, 72, Gallacher 85, 88)

     

     

    HIBERNIAN… 0

     

     

    SWPL football returned to Airdrie’s Excelsior Stadium as Fran Alonso’s Celtic FC Women got the new season off to an electric start, imposing a punishing 9-0 win over Hibs.

     

     

    In their first competitive outing since securing the historic cup double, the Ghirls flew out the traps with Jacynta finding the net after just 30 seconds, before going on to complete her hat-trick, with Clarissa Larisey also grabbing three to add to an own goal from Ellis Notley and an Amy Gallacher brace.

     

     

    The scintillating Celts wasted no time to stamp their authority on the match, with 17-year-old Tiree Burchill flying down the wing to deliver the cross into the middle of the area for Larisey, but while it snuck in behind the onrushing Canadian, Jacynta was on hand to pounce and drive a left-footed effort past Benedicte Haaland in the Hibs net within the first minute.

     

     

    And the Celts were two to the good on the 13th minute due to a bit of fortune as Ellis Notley’s block from Lucy Ashworth-Clifford’s cross looped over the stretching Hibs keeper and into the net. A hungry looking Celtic continued to press the visitors and were rewarded again in the 26th minute with Larisey’s first of the evening as she picked up on Gallacher’s pass to float in behind the defender and slot a deft shot beyond Haaland.

     

     

    Just 10 minutes later Larisey had Hibs picking the ball out their net again, with Jacynta turning provider with the through ball to allow the striker to blast high for Celtic’s fourth. Things went from bad to worse for the visitors on the 41st with Jacynta stabbing home Ashworth-Clifford’s delivery from point blank range to make it five before the Australian got her first Celtic hat trick just moments later, picking up Larisey’s cutback and resigning Hibs to a 6-0 deficit at the interval.

     

     

    While the Hoops continued to impress the large crowd with their aggressive press, it took until the 72nd minute to claim their seventh. Larisey picked up the second hat-trick of the day as her press forced the keeper into an error to break loose and fire home from inside the six-yard box.

     

     

    Having had an impressive pre-season with no goals to show for it, it seemed destined for Gallacher to find the net for Celtic for the first time against her previous club Hibs, and when she went down under the shove of Siobhan Hunter in the area, the summer signing stroked a low penalty in with the help of the post for her first Celtic goal, before a wonderful curler made it 9-0 and two on the day for Patsy Gallacher’s great-granddaughter, as the Hoops roared into the new season setting an early marker for themselves against a highly-rated Hibs squad.

     

     

    Celtic: Johnstone, Craig, Clark, Hayes, Ashworth-Clifford (Bowie 74), Robertson, Shen (Otto 70), Burchill (Menglu 55), Gallacher, Jacynta (Ross 55), Larisey (McAneny 74).

     

     

    Subs: Marwaha, Chance, Cusack, Ferguson.

    GP @ 9.33

     

     

    The stone age never came to an end because they ran out of stones.

     

    It came to an end because somebody somewhere came up with something better.

     

     

    There more hydrocarbons that stay in the ground the better.

     

    Carbon neutrality is on the horizon — and that might explain how the old regime is wringing the cloth at the moment to maximise their cut while they still have a chance.

     

     

    Remember SA flooded the oil market 8 years to shake out the new higher cost producers that were coming onstream with a huge development pipeline.

     

     

    Now as the geo-political moons align — surely VP hasn’t gamed his Ukrainian adventure through the prism of the energy market / hedging his bets — and now we are paying record prices for energy.

     

     

    The question is how long will these high energy prices last?

     

    And who will benefit from the windfall?

     

     

    The energy market in the UK / elsewhere — needs state intervention.

     

    The Treasury couldn’t believe its luck when Joe Public bought into their market mirage and they stopped having to sign cheques for energy market robustness.

     

     

    All that coal and no-one to dig for it.

     

    Maggie really worked wonders for the Russian / Qatar economy.

    The idea that it’s plagiarism to quote the Bible reflects poorly on your education.

     

     

    The difference is, the exact same use of Proverbs 26:11, ie Scottish Independence, appeared in one of the Sundays.

     

     

    I wasn’t referring to the use of Proverbs in a quote. I was referring to its application. You lifted it word for word.

    I have no idea what you are talking about. I’ve used the quote on a number of occasions on here in relation to Scexit and Brexit. I would be interested to know where you read it at the weekend.

     

     

    The fact that it appears to have been used by more than one person independently of the other ( I don’t flatter myself that someone else has copied my use of it) perhaps suggest how apposite it is.

     

     

    Maybe that’s what you should be reflecting on rather than resorting to unfounded allegations of plagiarism and dishonesty.
