Scott Brown was not the only one was briefly worried about Neil Lennon’s position in recent months. Neil has never particularly hidden his desire to work in England one day but when it became evident that there would be a few seats available in the English top flight, with the Everton job in particular becoming available, I am sure there were a few nervous twitches.
As and when Neil decides he is going to move on, Celtic will want to have a plan for succession in place, if not entirely executed. In May, when Neil was fielding questions about moving on, I doubt any succession planning had taken place. Some at the club would have been looking forward to a summer break and some player trading. The prospect of finding a new manager, with all the inherent consequences for trading, preseason planning and Champions League qualification, would have caused mild panic.
Always be prepared.

Worth bearing in mind how much time Obama spent in Indonesia in his youth-not saying that makes him one religion or another,but it is a strongly Moslem area.
Not that it matters,the only thing which should be of import is his ability.
And as modern politicians go,his record is by and large a good one.
IMO.
That he has failed to live up to the hype which surrounded his elevation to the job has greatly been down to intransigent opposition.
I’d much rather have him than the alternatives.

You got inside info from the yard after yer stunning info yesterday?
Which I missed….
EDB–got on the blog yesterday and would like to add support to you at this sorrowful and difficult time.The good memories will prevail although it may not seem so.I will have a wee novena to Padre Pio for you tonight (I know he’s been canonised,but he’s always Padre Pio to me,as I owe him so much).I was at a funeral yesterday of a good friend, Eamonn O’Carroll, drummer with the Blackthorn band here in Belfast.The church in Lenadoon was full.Musicians who played with Blackthorn were ther providing the music.To give you an indication of how highly he was thought of,Mick Maloney of the Chieftains came all the way from Westport to play Easter Snow as a tribute, after Communion.I know from the response on here that your lovely wife will be thought of in the same way.May God be with you and bless you.
Obama a Muslim? Perhaps, but only when he meets up with Elvis, Shergar and Lord Lucan. In fact, although he briefly attended a Muslim school, Obama also went to a Catholic school for several years when he lived in Indonesia (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/story/2010/04/08/ST2010040805888.html?sid=ST2010040805888). I wonder if that made him a Celtic supporter?
I’m for the first amendment, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof”. I’ve got nothing against people wanting to send their kids to religiously-based schools, but I don’t think that it is any business of the state to be actively funding religious (or most other) beliefs. Still, a personal opinion.

As I said I doubt he is Muslim . That he is preferable to what America could have had is true. But I wanted and expected him to be more than that.
All the best sir!

CRC – I had three winners yesterday, but only put up one….which made a pleasant change!
Bobby – I wish! Twisty is yer man for the inside info. Just my opinion, but it’s got a good sporting chance.
Good luck!

We are working on the second book for CQN Books and I have just read the chapter written by Setting Free the Bears. It is about 5000 words long and covers a short period in Celtic’s unbroken 125 years of history. In fact it covers a very short period – 10 seconds to be precise. And it will make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. Just brilliant!

Personally I doubt he is a Moslem-good point from APRICALE,thanks-nor do I care.
I’ve never yet asked anyone their religion,if they want to tell me,they can.
His record as US President will look better with hindsight. They usually do!
Looking forward to hooking up for a few in September,mate.
It might take me that long to recover from my nephew visiting in a few weeks. It will take him all year though….

Delighted to see someone winning-it used to be me but not now!
Enjoy yer Hamilton outing,lucky sod. I might take my nephew to Bath races if they are on while he is here. Poor quality usually,and miles from town.
Good night out though…

You may well be right about history’s view of Obama- we may not be around to find out! His religious beliefs, unlike many of his predecessors, seem to be pretty private. And that I do like about him. Sorry that I am joining in with these serious debates recently – that’s what happens when Celtic aren’t playing
Sure you’ll recover from nephew. Just away round to see the family – some beverages may be consumed.
Hear from you soon mate.

I’ll go for a 1986 May afternoon in Paisley around 4.35pm…

Mark the 28th of September into your diary,bud.
Score out the 29th…..
Hope you make it,mate. Be magic meeting up again.
Trying to figure out how to persuade my Mum to let my Dad out to play. Not easy,that one.

Well,I doubt you will need another shot at it-and this time there are witnesses!

Afternoon all. The weather down here goes from bad to very very bad. Earlier I counted 6 people saying to me that winter was back and then just now someone said “it’s the monsoon”. For, after the cold and wind, we are having the downpour to beat all downpours. It’s lashing.
Bobby – duly noted, sir. Looking forward to it, although I must remember not to sit anywhere near your radioactive curry!
It still makes me laugh when I remember TTT’s face after trying a bite. :-)
