I won’t tell you Scott Sinclair has not experienced racism until the last year, but I suspect it is highly unlikely he has had to endure the vitriolic abuse he has gone through as a Celtic player anywhere in England. He must be wondering what century he travelled to when encountering the kind of ‘people’ who celebrate their racism.
Yesterday his name and a racist slogan was pinned to a bonfire in Belfast. Humanity is weaker as a consequence.
Scott will travel to that town on Friday to play for Celtic, a game his team-mates will ensure goes the right way. What I can tell you about Scott, is that he will respond with overwhelming drive in the season ahead. Specifically, he will rip the turf up at Ibrox in September.

Happy birthday to oldtim

Happy birthday OldTim67.

I’m unsure now which is the biggest scandal – Rangers and the EBT cheating years or The Timmy stalking of Notra Dame high school for girls school by CQNers?
:-@)))

Good morning CQN from a bright sunny, furnace like Southern Sardinia. Forecast well over 40 degrees locally today….. beers will be taken.
I had a basement bed sit flat for a few years in Dundonald Road, and the girl in the ground floor flat upstairs used to help Claire Grogan with her maths homework – FACT!
Happy birthday OldTim
Had a wee catchup reading all the info provided by Resolutioners. Outstanding work guys. I still think you’ll be whistling in the wind at the end of the day as Rangers/Sevco normalisation wins through in this sectarian bigot infested little country of ours. But your efforts are still appreciated and I do hope that your work is rewarded.

My hunch on Paddy is that a deal is still possible. He’s back at City for pre season and that’s fine. But his possibilities there remain limited. Both of his social media photos that I’ve seen recently are photos of him in his Celtic kit. I genuinely believe and hope that if it’s not happening at City he will want to return here. I don’t see another big Club coming in for him and giving him assurances that he will play. Another one year loan with us might be the most realistic option. Paddy will know Celtic park will erupt if he comes back up the road and for a player that will be hard not to think about.

Moonbeams, I went on the the Glasgow Corpy 20 bus when I travelled to school. Just by chance many fine young ladies who attended Notre Dame school, were on the same bus.
The Bluebells song , Cath, was about Clare Grogan’s sister, Kathleen.
Happy Birthday, Oldtim

Yes Marion married Nick Hayward of Haircut 100 but I believe they divorced sometime later.
Marspapa — now you have me searching my brain for the name of three sisters from Blairdardie — used to go to some great parties there.
…” Some say that the tears of Clare Grogan revived a dying kitten……..”
Happy Birthday Oldtim.
Hope you are keeping well. See you at Aberdour in a couple of weeks.

Clare Grogan may have come to watch me play Volleyball once. There were 11 other guys on court at the same time, but it was me she was watching. If it was her :-)

I once served Clare Grogan in WH Smith in Argyle St.
She joins other superstars that I have served like:
Tom Boyd
Billy Stark
Gray O’Brien
Kenny Clarke
Too many superstars to list really…
WITS,
You are not alone.
I never went out with Clare Grogan.
Now, if it is her mother you are talking about!
HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPY Birthday
Oldtim
Donald Trump says he forgives Trump Jnr over Russian email exchange
Glad thats that all cleared up CSC
I believe Celtic have sold upwards of 51.500 season tickets already.
Now that is magical / wonderful and a giant statement in itself.
HH.
PS : My abiding memory :Parking was an absolute nightmare at Notre Dame school a few years back, but the teachers were wonderful, turning shy young girls into well educated and articulate young ladies . Well worth a fight to retain it.
Trump is like King.
He spouts complete nonsense and the ones who put him there swallow it without sugar.
Q) “Who’d win a (pillow) fight between Clare Grogan and Helen Flanagan?”
A) Big Peter, of-course.

Has Clare Grogan Signed yet….
I will drive her to the airport myself
Stuart Armstrongs hairdresser went to school with Ms Grogan
Good Morning Bhoys from a dry Central Scotland I would like to wish GMS all the best with his new club Aberdeen a fine young mhan who just in my opinion lacked self believe. Also a big Celtic Welcome to big Oliver with best wishes for his new Celtic career.Next may well be Paddy Roberts I dont believe we have reached the end of this story yet and another seasons loan deal is possible.On Friday night we must be up for the game as Linfield are so much better than Shamrock rovers . H.H.

I did inded – he was my boss.
Many hoopy returns Old Tim
Morning all
I never spoke to Claire Grogan though I was familiar with her work and am sorry to admit I rather preferred looking at her to hearing her sing. However in the film Comfort and Joy she gave even Miss Joanne Whalley a run as my favourite ‘dream girl’ of the mid-80s.
My sister did know Claire though because they went to College together in the late 70s ( Langside I think it was) and they had a mutual male friend ( platonic ) and subsequently bumped into each other at his wedding c1985. Miss Grogan asked my sister how she had been since they had last met and was met with tales of the disasters and mishaps which seemed to follow my sister around in those years. Claire probably wished she had not asked but made the appropriately sympathetic remarks. My sister somewhat bitterly then asked Claire ‘have you been up to much these last few years?’ Which kind of shut Claire up and immediately caused my sister to wish she herself could evaporate on the spot.

“…..hearin’ Southampton are eyein’ a big bucks move for Clare Grogan…….as Celtic dither……..”

I have to disagree with this statement …. Linfield are so much better than Shamrock rovers . H.H.
There are not
Rovers play a Europa League qualifier tonight ( they also played one last Thursday) and therefore put out a 2nd string team against Celtic
Rovers would bash Linfield…FACT !!!!
Davido- he used to frequent the Vale when i knew him. Good guy. Talks a lot though :-)

Brian used to take some of the lads for a pint of guinness in the Vale before we caught our trains after a Saturday shift (cheapest pint of Guinness in Glasgow at the time if I remember right!). He was a good guy…he did talk a lot… :)
Btw Brian had a story about dating Clare Grogan…
