The Scottish Government yesterday suggested the SFA act unilaterally to introduce Strict Liability on the game, making clubs liable for the actions of their lunatic fringe, or else the government would impose measures. This is a curious stance for a government who are not prepared to accept ANY liability for their own lunatic fringe.
When the lunatics in charge only see other people’s lunatics, we’re all in trouble. And it should be noted, lunatics inhibiting a democracy cause vastly more damage than football fans fighting on a field once every 36 years.
The notion of Strict Liability in itself is a separate question, but I have serious concerns at the increasingly right wing, and selective, attitude to law and control at Holyrood.
If you want to impose Strict Liability on football, accept if for yourself first. Then come back after a year’s experience and talk to us about football. This, of course, will never happen. Not all lunatic fringes are equal.

Zlatan,dont think so.Then again,its Zlatan,so who knows ?.
Good God,wou;dnt it be great though?.Nice dream.
The BHS cokkapse bears a few similarities to the death of the Huns.Sold for one pound,bought by a supposed “Off the radar”wealthy guy,who turned out to be a charlatan,and the previous owners took every available penny out of it,leaving it in ruins.
Collapse that should be.
SFTB
Cracking post…..more of that fella!
SFTB
Stop getting so hot under the collar.Nobody really thinks that Zlatan will don the Hoops.
Then again !!!!!!!.
Danny Alves to join Zlatan at Celtic.
Turkeybhoy
Still perfectly cool
I assume no-one was serious either in saying we should have bid for Rooney, Owen and Fletcher (Darren) or that this is not part of a pattern?
More chance of Zlatan buying Celtic than him agreeing to pay for our wages. He is more of a Malmo fan than a Celtic fan and he ain’t retiring to there yet.
Bedtime.Beach Barbie tomorrow.Drunk by 5 and covered in 2 inches of Aftersun by 6.
Regardless of the chances of him signing for us,I have to say,Zlatan,is a fantastic name for a big striker.
Zlatan Batistuta-Larsson
Now that’d be a player.

FOREVERANDEVER!!!
BIG it up. We are signing Zoltan.

Zoltan Varga is now 65
Evening All, Zlatan the slayer out tonight?
So, no club statement yet?
But the message delivered to those that need the message.
Onwards.
A working day for me, so apologies is I have missed anything,
Doc
And the message?
MWD
Quandary!
Aye, quandary, I am in a quandary… Just me, naw, didnae think so… The game is fucked, for sure.
Not a recent eye opener but way back to when the murderous hun monkey cheats over reached their already unsporting advantage.
The quandary (for me) is continue to play along with the sham/scam ‘game’ or bow out altogether…
That is the quandary…
From earlier…
HEBCELT… No, not aimed at you. An observation. If I was addressing you in particular, would have ‘named’ you but hey, if the headgear fits (-:

Question
Should Peter Lawell resign from SFA board IF Regan is not brought to book?
In a fair world of course, Regan would fall on his sword.
SFA? Fair?
Aye ok, I’m being ridiculous now ………….
TWISTS N TURNS on 3RD JUNE 2016 5:18 AM
_______________________________________________
T n T, Hail Hail fella, hope yer well amigo.
Imho…..PL wulny resign!
And, who’ll bring Regan to book ?
Ye see, Regan, Lawwell etc, will brass it oot.
The only force’s who would have brought the
above named to book were, Turnbull Hutton
and, Celtic season ticket holders suspending they’re
purchases.
TH has sadly passed on and, Celtic supporters have let they’re
guard down with the arrival of new manager / squirrel
Brendan Rodgers.
Celtic’s hierarchy will now slink away into the background and let the
Internet-Bampots eat each other as, apathy will now dominate….imho.
Rebellions died when, Fergus constructed a PLC set-up to keep Celtic
supporters out of the management / direction of the club that the
supporters queued all night to contribute the finance to build the stadium
whilst, rich / tycoon / fat-cat / establishment-compliant-types increase the
dis-connect at the club.
Brendan Rodgers recruited!
The cheats back ‘unpunished’….!
Season tickets still not sold out, even after an extended renewal deadline!
Oh for the days when the p#sh flowed in the Jungle.
…….bye…….
Morning Kev. I’m good thanks and I’m assuming you are too bud. You sound like the normal Kev we know and love anyhow!
No, I agree Peter won’t resign. Mind you, maybe it’s better we keep a man on the inside?
Turnbull Hutton. Yep. Principled gent. Sadly missed.
I honestly don’t see Brendan as a “squirrel”, but more the beginning of the return to the Celtic way of football we knew and loved. Of course I could be wrong but only time will answer that aspect.
I think the banners displayed by the GB ( empty hearts) may have resonated with DD. If so, the GB have done us a mighty good turn.
I truly did swither about renewing , for the very reasons you advocate, but, no offence to your good self Kev, I listened to something I couldn’t ignore. My heart. As it has done throughout my life, it may be well be ruling my head again, but I’ll take the chance and back Brendan’s appointment with my cash. I felt it was the right thing to do. As I say, time will tell.
In an ideal world, Celtic won’t miss the target re the impending res 12 statement, Brendan will get us playing the Celtic way , and we will see football success.
If we get the first two right I can live without the football success in terms of trophies, though I feel if we get the first two right, the third, the trophies will be a natural consequence .
Peter L will go in time, as will Brendan, and will go and give their time and passion to other football clubs.
You and I? Well it’ll always be Celtic, and only Celtic. That makes us more important than any employee.
We need to embrace every second we have each other. One day Kev, we won’t have the opportunity.
Let’s stay on the inside fighting bud! The alternative is a miserable thought.
( I know you’ll disagree entirely, but I also know you are as passionate as me re the hoops. We just see the best way forward differently)
Hail hail and good health Kev.
Kev
In fact, if you ever want to go along to a game, and show your support to the bhoys on the pitch, whilst giving both barrels to the mhen off it, I’d be more than spot to take you as my guest.
Think on. Will cost you Hee haw to get in there screaming ‘ cmon you bhoys in green’, Lawell Lawell gtf” and I’ll throw in a pie, bovril and see if I can get my hands on a packet of wriggleys speeeeramint chooooing gum as well. I’ll even turn a blind eye if you decide to have a pee down the terrace for auld times sake:-)
Honestly, open invitation. Anytime ya fancy a game, just gimme a wee bit notice and I’ll set my schedule accordingly.
Hail hail
More thanSpot? Where on earth did that appear from?
More than happy!!
THEBARCAMOLE mate Celtic have never played on a level playing field. Hasn’t stopped generations supporting the hoops. The resolution 12 bhoys are a credit to that history, and have created history. If nothing changes in the game should you throw in the towel or keep on enjoying being a Celtic supporter. I have seen both arguements on here but you know what , life is short, do what you enjoy most. For some that is going to the games or watching Celtic play. For others it is calling for boycotts. Do what lights your fire, to hell with the rest. I just wish I could see Celtic more, I can’t , so I drop in here. Bron the hoops. Looking forward to 6IAR
Good morning friends and a Big Happy Friday from a gloriously sunny, clear skied, joyous East Kilbride.
This wondeful spell of good weather we’ve been having all started when Brendan signed on the dotted line you know. “The smiles returning to the faces…it seems like years since it’s been here….”
Jobo
Press pause, or record , on that weather bud. I’m heading up on Tuesday, at which point, hit play again.
Tends to be when I hit the M74 I have to simultaneously hit my windscreen wipers!!
It appears the only why Ogilvie will get found out is if he’s promoted to president of FIFA.
Ogilvie for president
Spectacular sunrise this morning.
Sudden downpour here in Rome, threatens my planned outdoor breakfast! Jeez, what a tragedy. Heading back to Edinburgh later this morning, so it is very much “arrividerci Roma ” all good things come to an end.
Tauranga….,
Big difference being, for most of that 100 years we had no proof and were labeled paranoid.
Now we have proof, I can saftly say had this proof been available to the Celtic support in the 50’s/60’s do you think they would have been as easy to placate ?
Portugal were featured on one of the BT channels last night in a pre Euro programme.
The bold George cadete scoring.
What a player.
Poorly poorly advised.
A real what could have been

Weather to turn Tuesday , rain coming in from Wiltshire area!

Ha. Typical that.
Wiltshire? Hmmm I blame that BMCUW fella:-)

Cadete debut. Missus hadn’t been to a game before. One if the kids not going so took her along.
Cadete came on and was magnificent. Missus loved the passion and atmosphere. Downside was she wanted to go every week after that:-)

Were the Res 12 guys not promised a back up letter from the club to UEFA in support of the evidence – has this happened yet ?
Charles
According to reports from elsewhere Celtic are adding the final detail to the letter now. Imminent I believe
