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.
Ghirls for Good
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.

If ever there was a time when a schism existed between those who actually support the club and those who benefit from our club it is now. RD is stuck in the middle and is walking that fine line like many before him.
A track for ma wee Bro.

Sorry for boring you but every time I read your posts and other posters try to second guess you, Frantic67 has asaur e me you might be a St Augustine Bhoy, I tried to tell that Frantic guy that St Augustine was from Coatbrig…. Dundyvan to be exact !
By the way Frantic told me he loves the fact that some posters think you are a Hun, he told me no way is he a hub
….. But he does act like one

The foodbank collection organised by th Green Brigade will take place on 21/11/15 before our game against Killie.
Ronny, great show today. Thank you.
Good night all and sleep well
Delaney’s, enjoy your trip as much as you can in light of the tragic news your family received recently.
Think humpin the sheep tomorrow is a forgone conclusion ..
Do the same to Molde next week .. The scepticism a lot of Tims have about Ronny will dissipate ..
Let’s see how good they are on a proper pitch and proper stadium.

Many comments have been made tonight about the BBC Reporting Scotland coverage of Deila’s “diatribe” – their word. One view is that you should just switch off. Why? You are paying for this from a publicly funded organisation that has a responsibility to report without partiality. Like others on here, I consider tonight’s coverage appalling. I use the BBC complaints procedure and suggest that others do likewise. It is the best way to get the message across. Switching channels makes zero difference.

Reading your posts your kids are a total credit
Hail hail from ML5
A week ago the blog was jam packed with posts decrying our abysmal performance in Molde and our managerial teams ineptidude. Tonight after a rabble rousing press conference RD has suddenly become new messiah. What a fickle bunch indeed.

The haters are in abstentia
That’s me just watched Ronny’s interview for the third time.
My name’s Jobo; and I’m obsessed ;-)
So, to put it mildly, Ronny thinks Celtic don’t get the credit we deserve ……. welcome to Scotland, Ronny, and thank you for speaking out…… It’s about time the hatred of all things Celtic was exposed, and challenged / resisted by our Board also …… The Scottish Foorball fraternity are small minded bigots, with an agenda to promote sevco to the top of Scottish Football …… but , it’s not going to happen …… Like it’s predesessor, it is about to be zombified….
Still looking for two tickets for Ross County game, will be in Glasgow at about 11 tomorrow before the game leaving again on Sun about midday. Thanks H H Hebcelt
