Schisms, corralling the message

926
By on CQN BLOG & Comments

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.

    …..and thank you Jobo , for everything you do in Last Man Standing for Wee Shay.

    G64 .. Why Celtic allow Lords, like Baron Livingston of Parkhead (what a piss-take!!) Baron’ Dr Death’ Reid. Baron Brian Wilson ..” Who strongly voted in favour of the Iraq war” Seats on the board .. Is beyond contempt .. The (supposed) ethos of the club is charitable and compassion toward

     

    ‘s the less fortunate .

     

     

    The 3 of them have voted gleefully to oversee suffering, poverty and mass murder in tandem…

     

    Be it home or abroad!!

     

     

    It’s no conjecture .. It’s the sad reality about Celtic FC! ..

     

     

    F@@K The PLC!!

    A song for Ronny perhaps?

     

     

    “You gotta grow, you gotta learn by your mistakes

     

    You gotta die a little every day just to try to stay awake

     

    (but) when you BELIEVE there’s no mountain you can’t climb

     

    Cos if you get it wrong you’ll get it right next time”

    At the end of my day I thought I’d watch RDs media session.

     

     

    Ronny reduced the media to silence with a 5 minute monologue about how badly they all do their job and how great it is to be a Celtic manager and fan.

     

     

    Stonkingly good stuff that should be shoved down the throats of those who, as Ronny put it “are jealous, want to criticise Celtic and work in the media. Me, I want to work in football.”

     

     

    He should play that interview to the players in the home dressing room tomorrow at 12.15 pm and we’ll force them back up the M80 before HT.

    To the idiot/idiots on here having a go at Brian Wilson; let me tell you that he is a better man that you and all your cohorts put together.

     

     

    Now crawl back under your SNP/Sheridan stone – I am sickened that people like you are Celtic supporters, or are you?.

     

     

    Maybe like your pals in the ‘Trust’, you are just detractors and mischief – makers, similar to the people mentioned by the manager – you people would do the Celtic Football Club wrong,to further your warped and puerile ideology.

    New York Mets beat Kansas City 9-3 at Citi Field

    well i’m glad people like you aren’t…

    It looks like some posters would like a litmus test to qualify as a Celtic fan.

     

    Or should that be Celtic supporter?

     

    Qualification based on:-

     

    Political bent?

     

    Religious affiliation?

     

    For Catholics last time you went to confession? (And the nature of your sins)

     

    Games attended?

     

    Shares held?

     

    CQN charities supported?

     

    First game seen?

     

    Pub regularly visited?

     

    School attended? St Pat’s Coatbridge during James Breen’s time is an extra 10 bonus points.

     

     

    It’s ridiculous that we should allow ourselves to make ad hominem attacks on posters who have different opinions.

     

    To paraphrase, opinions are like oxters.

     

    We all have a couple and at least one invariably stinks.

     

    Kick off in 8 sleepy hours.

    War criminals and associations with Celtic.

     

     

    Does anyone do lateral thinking?

     

    Or must I be the one to point out obvious inconsistencies in that thinking?

     

    Double standards or what.

    Celtic Football prides itself on being a welcoming community, regardless of political or religious bent.

     

     

    Should not the people on this forum then?

    To a man from Ger57 to Clogher Celt when they heard Macjay was in the pub their initial reaction was “awe F###” where is he I have a had a few ding dongs on the blog with him… Minutes later there were smiles and laughter, the blog is stranger pressing a few buttons, meeting people in the real world is a whole different ball game….. Cheers for the opportunity to put eijits to a moniker, the reference eijit is especially towards me, CRC I showed my good ladies the video you sent the other day about wee Shay, I explained to my Mrs that my tenner (or other tenders to get back in) go to a great cause so yourself and Jobo should be mighty proud
