Aberdeen are on the kind of downward spiral which is difficult to arrest, but there’s more going on that we know about publicly. I would be amazed if their recent run, four defeats and a draw in five games, after winning their opening eight league games, was all to do with matters on the park.
They are a team who look to be in schism. If so, Celtic Park is the perfect venue to pull together. You raise your game at Celtic Park in a way which isn’t likely in Dingwall. Whatever differences that exist will be set aside, we’ll need to be on our game to win.
Craig Whyte’s bankrupt, unable to pay Ticketus the £18m damages they won against him. Craig’s financial strength was plain for all to see, as he made regular trips north on Easyjet in his worn-out attire, owning up to the fact he couldn’t fund the bank repayment, until a clever knight put him onto Ticketus.
Charles Green was equally transparent. Relying on shares-for-backing deals with pliable ‘legends’. Now we have Dave King, overwhelmingly dependent on PR and a compliant media, while the rest of the world is sticking dates in the calendar. The most common question I’m asked these days is “When’s it going to happen?” It’s no longer a matter of “if” it’s going to happen.
The re-writing of history, evident today, will be rolled out again in due course. “We told you about him”, they will scream. Aye, sure you did. You also made it all possible, just as you did with Green, Whyte and Murray.
The trade in favours, exclusive stories, substances and team-handed loose-limbed 60 minute acquaintances, deployed to sustain the project and corral the message over the years is legend. Truly legend. Fraternity on this level takes more than money, a business lunch or a game of golf. If that’s how you think the game is played, these guys will leave you standing. Shed tears for none of them.
The books which will be written when the guilty are dead will sell millions.

Ladies, sign up for this year’s Celtic Foundation Ghirls for Good Christmas lunch. I’m told it’s a riot and one of the best days of the year at Celtic Park…… More here.

Very good mate :-))
any chance of design them a new logo competition ?
I have a few ideas
Sound like Big Mike is about to pull the plug and they’ve gone on the PR offensive to make it look like it’s all his fault.

Blantyretim I don’t understand what you are getting at.
I have dropped the word sectarianism and use the more correct word rwcism. Scotland is an institutionally anti Catholic.anti Irish society. It’s all around you.
Are you denying that?
My hatred for the board is that they are perpetuating this racism just because they think it’s good for business.
Ronny is pissing on the wind unless the club decide to really tackle the issue.

It was a rhetorical question that needed answered…HH amigo :))

You me and macjay as well as philbhoy understand the question about why we have such lovely children when we are ugly suckers

Errrrrr – don’t the prior statements all contradict one another?

Delaneys. Exactly who is united my friend. Ronny and the support, but not the board who the whole time will be undermining us.
We cannot be united while at the same time being completely undermined.
Our most deadly enemy is the enemy within.
I said last year the road we were setting out on would be bumpy at times.
At those times we have to stand together.
I’m proud of Ronny tonight.
He spoke with passion, but as also measured and accurate.
All the BBC could do was say he talked for a long time, so speeded the film up to try to ridicule him.
They failed.

There’s quite an insular tone that resides in here at time. A few sensitive souls.
I for one, will love it… Absolutely love it (Keegan esque) if we wipe the floor with Aberdeen. Even more so if we beat Molde on Thursday. In doing so, Ronny will be entitled to stick the two fingers up to all that have knocked him… But after Malmo, and then Molde last week, his credibility is at stake this Thursday coming…. There is no disputing that.
And I’m not sure if rounding on his critics today was well timed…. I think he should of kept the powder dry. Wait til Friday , and all being well dependant on Thursday nights result…. He can then line them all up and give them both barrel’s .

My point was that you no longer practice your faith and when challenged about that you changed your point of attack
I am proud to stand up for my faith and my heritage

My 5 year grandson showed me the cover Living Dead game on his dad’s X box.
“It is about zombies grampa. My mum and dad say that Rangers are zombies.”

Blantyretim it is of course correct that I am no longer a practising Catholic. However I am from an Irish and Catholic background. So I have every right to point out the racism.
And even if I wasn’t what right do you have to tell me I have no right to point out and disagree with racism.
I attended many anti apartheid demos but I’m not black. Are you saying I had no right?
You standing up for your faith and heritage does not diminish my right. Quite frankly I’m appalled by you sneering, condescending and snobbish attitude.
Whatever doubts you have over RD technically, and I have my doubts, his GIRUY message today shows we can’t doubt him as a man. Really do want him to be a success with us.
Lost my dad this week in his care home all family around him and just went to sleep after 85 years. A real peaceful exit. Remember Jimmy in your prayers and will say last goodbye at St Benedicts Easterhouse next week. A plumber by trade he maintained that chapel for 40 odd years and, introduced me to his beloved Celtic

And blantyretim my wife and daughters are Catholic and they face the racism as much as I did.
I am genuinely disgusted by your attitude here.

God rest the soul of Jimmy RIP.

Touching post about your Dad.
My thought are with you and all your loved ones.
Hail Hail
BGX just because Ronny says the right thing doesn’t mean we park our brains.
And while Ronny is saying the right thing PL and DD will be only too willing to throw him and us to the wolves.
Sorry for the reality check. But it is reality.

No I was at home that night with my chillum and some Supergrass. ;)
Blossoms I predict to be a massive band.
Love and Peace!
Off to watch the boxing on Eurosport…much better than the verbal sparring on here :)))
Neganon
I am in no way trying to be judgemental as i i agree with your views on the Celtic board but feel you changed your attack when you admitted you no longer practised your faith and decided to change your point of attack
If you feel offended then so be it disgusted then suit yourself

Just watched the Ronny conference. I am left feeling that it was just the thing that most Celtic fans wanted to hear. I look forward to the MSSM response. Could be fascinating.
Only read the posts on this page but it would seem, from BGX`s post, that some are not happy with Ronny`s performance. I will need to look back and see why that is so . At the moment, and provided we win, I predict a Ronny Roar after the final whistle tomorrow.

May Jimmy rest in peace and may perpetual light shine upon him. His legacy lives on.
