I’ve read sanctimonious nonsense about how Celtic fans are enjoying these times, on how they should feel instead, and on how they will feel, one day. I’ve also read what utterings our chief executive and manager should limit themselves to.
Our manager and directors have so far said very little on the subject of Rangers, only responding to direct questions or when you, the Celtic fans, were brought into the debate, without reference to any of us, by the First Minister. Their response to Mr Salmond brought a swift and appropriate retraction.
It concerns me greatly that Scottish Premier League championships could have been won by a team playing improperly registered football players. It would concern me even more if my concerns, your concerns, were not shared by the people charged with speaking on our behalf. It is the responsibility of Neil Lennon and Peter Lawwell to leave no Celtic supporter in any doubt that they will vigorously pursue our supporters’ historical and future interests.
Mark Hateley’s piece on today’s Daily Record betrays a lot of hurt. He concedes this season’s title to Celtic, which he regards as “tainted”.
As someone suggested in the CQN comments section this week, “We don’t need your stinkin’ 10 point penalty”….. we have another 10 point lead in reserve.
Hately suggests you should have the “good grace” to move on as his club “attempts to battle for its very existence”, adding, “There is no need for the likes of Lennon and Peter Lawwell to continue to sink the boot in”.
We will move on once justice has been done and is seen to be done. Anyone who suggests otherwise, that somehow justice, the maintenance of ethical standards in the game, or even legality, are not things football fans, managers or directors should concern themselves with, has perhaps headed too many footballs in his time.
The coup-de-grace from Hateley was “So let Celtic get on with celebrating their title – a title they somehow failed to win throughout the last three years of financial troubles”. Does anyone believe Rangers would have won three leagues had they paid their tax instead of singing Jelavic, Lafferty, Davis, Edu, Naismith or Bougherra?
I think this guy is missing the point. If the First Tier Tribunal report confirms already-made allegations that Rangers improperly registered football players, this bling that Hateley is flashing in your face is ill-gotten.
The Celtic manager, directors and support, together with most others in Scottish football, have to ensure that Fifa rules on the registration of football players is not subverted.

I have taken tomthetims advice:
I request a deletion of my remarks on 15:03 & 15:21
The first step to wisdom is taking advice
I defer to tomthetims better judgement.
If there are still any Celtic supporters who still buy the Daily Record, I hope that this bigoted rubbish from Hately convinces them of the folly of their ways. After all is this not the same rag which,a few years ago, warned Rangers players not to go to Newcastle for their Christmas party,while at the same time they tried to set a trap for the Celtic players there?
As sure as night follows day, Declan is philvisreturns, or phivisreturnsreturns, as he should properly be known following his recent brush with the CQN spam-filter.

Looking forward to the 3.05 Kempton, and to finding out how good Minsk really is, at Fairyhouse today, but nap for today is a horse which hasn’t won for a wee while, Oh Crick 3.45 at Chepstow.
Good luck everyone.

Nobody backed Hector’s Choice in the 3:05 at Kempton?!

Happy with the single and Arth Legned ew, and a tidy 3 points.
Hey you,
I was having a Blue Monday
when along came the white knight, I thought he was The Real McCoy, said we
were all going on a Magic
Carpet Ride, he asked Are
We Gonna Go his way, said we could Take it Easy as we would Rule the World.
Next thing we know we are hearing about some Monkey Business, the
white knight assured us we were going to have Nothing But
A Good Time, and we had Something To
Believe In.
The white knight then told us to Get Ready For
This and Step On
and not believe the stories of Fools Gold.
It turns out we were all Fools for Loving white
knight, you are Made of
Stone, we are Begging
You, so Try a Little
Tenderness as we deserve better.
Tis true there are no Angels, no Heroes, but I
have Heard Through The
Grapevine that all will end well despite the Warning, cause I am just
a Simple Man who doesn’t
want to think of all the Wasted Years.
I pray for the day When A
Stranger Comes to take me High Enough
once again.
I don’t want to Paint it Black so I think
I will have some Vanilla Ice
Cream and Jelly.
