The Celtic Story in 2088 will write about this time

804

When someone writes the Celtic Story on our 200th anniversary there will be a page about when The Thai Tims came to Glasgow.  It’s a part of the Celtic Story which reaches from 1888 to the present day, and, if we do our job as Celtic fans well, will ensure the character of the club retains a distinct and generous flavour.

The Thai Tims, formally the Good Child Foundation, arrive from Thailand next month and will perform at the Royal Concert Hall, Glasgow, on Thursday 10 May, tickets are £12 and £6 for kids.  If you have enjoyed them on YouTube, and I know you have…. buy a couple of tickets here or call 08444 77 1000 and get along before they’ve sold out.

You can also support the Good Child Foundation by contributing to the fundraising exercise via their Everyclick page.

Sorry I didn’t get back to you yesterday on the question about whether not registering players correctly was cheating.  Busy, busy.  Will get to it as soon as I can – no answering this question early, that’s cheating.

    Celtictaxcase has the hallmarks of AweNaw and/or declan (has anyone seen AweNaw and declan in the same room together?).

     

     

    It is time folk phoned SSB and told them they should be reading it and asking why they are not following up on the leads.

  2. It’s a bloody ear-worm….ah cannae get it oot ae ma heid! “We are ragers,Glasgow Ragers/We don’t do walking away…”Aye ye will.

     

    Jeezo….it’s a weapon of mastoid destruction!

     

    Ah’m aff tae listen to The Black Keys to try to effect a cure!

    Evening troops, not read back but think the theme is self preservation.

     

    Wee diddy clubs trying to out muscle Celtic because of the Govan implosion.

     

    Celtic for the EPL? Hope so, hope it happens then all the diluted Scottish teams that have gratefully took the Celtic pound whilst despising us freeze in the sudden reality of economics. No Celtic £1 = no bank loans/overdrafts to support their cash projections. Scottish football has treated us with disdain for years, feck them and goodbye!

    One of their forums is discussing the embarrassment and ridicule they will face if the song is really played there on Sunday. Heehee. This really has been a special day.

     

    ***************

     

    Just on pal – which song?

  5. If wee Wullie is making an appearance at ibORCS on Sunday, please be kind to him Celts this could be the start of something big for him, a bit of polite applause is all I’d expect, it’s a catchy tune and I like it.

     

    This morning we had Tom Fae Aus posting about classical music and now we have another thread going on ( thanks MWD) about another ibORCS classic.

    Brilliant, old bean, simply soopoib, as they are heard to remark in little Italy and Hell’s Kitchen.

     

     

    David Leggat may sue you though for using his patented template of gin-soaked helpings of sheer buffoonery with a twist of caps lock.

    When you cross the thin dividing line between insanity and genius you tend to hope it is in the right direction.

     

     

    II seem to have entered a tear in the fabric of the universe where each morning starts with a conversation with a white rabbit and ends up with a late meal at the mad hatter’s table.

     

     

    It’s a wee bit like spending a day in Airdrie ( a town where the prescription drug of choice is the ugly pill…..and very effective it is too!)

     

     

    So recovery is still some way off or perhaps its not. Maybe this is the psychological equivalent of community service for crimes against my body.

     

     

    Time off for good behaviour is sadly unlikely! .

     

     

    Thanks for asking . Hope all the family are well and treating you with the respect due to their very own Dumbarton Rock.

  8. For their sake I sincerely hope that the boul’ wee wullie is actually one of us…..at it.

     

     

    If it transpires that it is genuine, then the ‘Bontempi Billy Boy’ will have done as much as Paul, Phil or RTC to show thems up.

  10. Ghuys,

     

     

    I’ve worked out that over the next 40 years @ 2 hours per day I will spend 3.3 years reading CQN. On the other hand i will only spend 1.8 years watching my wifes TV and more importantly only 0.9 years actually engaging in conversation with her.

     

     

    BARGAIN!

    Brilliant, absolutely brilliant. Hope no one tells him that a few weeks ago China’s Vice President Xi Jinping visited Ireland a few weeks ago.

     

     

    I have also seen some Chinese students here at University, wonder what’s going on there.

     

     

    Murkier and murkier.

     

     

    Can’t wait for the next entry.

  13. I had Chinese takeaway tonight and there’s a bottle of Jamesons in the sideboard. My role in the shenanigans will yet be revealed.

    The next knock on your door will be from the police investigating this unholy alliance. best dispose of the evidence as soon as.

    There are also Chinese Take Aways in Ireland and Irish Bars in China.

     

     

    And then there is an I in Ireland and an I in China. There’s even an A and an N in both.

     

     

    Roy Keane has a K and Chinese martial art is Kung Foo which also has a K.

     

     

    Both China and Ireland are Countries as well.

     

     

    Both China and Ireland are on Planet Earth.

  21. Larsson and McStay on

    The celtictaxcase blogger HAS to be one of us on the wind-up. Hilarious stuff , but my fave bit is :

     

     

    I was actually going to copy and paste a paragraph , but having re-read it the total piece is a work of art.

     

     

    Tomorrow I hope he genuinely has a look at Celtic’s signing of 2 South Koreans and explores links between the late North Korean bampot dictator Kim Jong-il , and Dermot Desmond. Apparently (allegedly) they were out in a 2-ball together the day that Kim Jong-il struck a world record 18 holes in one. If DD signed his card that day , I reckon there’s a case for Celtic’s titles under Martin O’Neill and Gordon Strachan to be stripped, and the 6-2 game to be wiped from the history books……..

  22. I’v heard wee wullie has been discovered thanks to his ‘Youchoob’ performance,

     

    apparently he’s signed two contacts already……..

     

     

    Nytol.

  23. How’s sunday looking

     

     

    we all think we’re going to win

     

    we’ve faltered the last couple of games

     

    our form is shed loads better than theirs

     

    we’ve quality all over the pitch if put in the right place

     

    they have some good players

     

    I don’t rate their manager

     

    I rate ours

     

    they’ll have a huge adrenalin burst in the first 10 and then a low

     

    we’ll keep our heads

     

    we’ve got selection headaches

     

    they don’t

     

    we can get it wrong

     

     

    It’s going to be brilliant.

  24. This isn’t a great picture but I had to get one with the tricolour on the Clyde. Could I thank my Muslim mates frae the central mosque for their architectural foresight in creating this tableau.
