The Newcastle United takeover is a depressing manifestation on many fronts but with some money behind them, ever-mediocre Steve Bruce’s time in charge may be coming to an end. Bookmakers have installed one-win-in-nine-trophies expert, Steven Gerrard as their favourite. I sincerely hope he remains in Glasgow.
When Brendan Rodgers left for Crisptown, Celtic received £9m in compensation, a fee that bridged some of the gap between Europa and Champions League money that season. I expect Newco would receive the same for losing Gerrard.
Gerrard was perhaps saved from the sack when the league programme was curtailed in 2020 with boos from the Ibrox support as his team left the field to another defeat. Since then, he, along with Callum Davidson at St Johnstone, have profited from Celtic’s collapse, although Davidson helped himself to twice as many trophies. Faced with a functional and appropriately prepared Celtic, his teams have unerringly collapsed.
I see some speculation about Newco’s accounts this week (not far off my expectations). When they are eventually released, few will argue they need a compensation figure in the region of £9m more than any player or coach at the club. Gerrard is managerial bait. Let’s hope Newcastle go for our old pal, Eddie Howe, currently third favourite. They seem so well matched.

Any red vino drinkers out there have a look for a Ribera del Duero 2018 called Hachon from Lidl, as cheap as and superb, thankfully it’s cool enough at night now to partake in the red vino.

O.K. I accept that. Easy done. But what did your post mean?
Patryck Klimala scores New York Red Bulls winner (1-0) against David Beckham’s Inter Miami tonight in the Big Apple. Ex-Celts Andrew Gutman and Lewis Morgan played directly against each other, with Gutman winning most battles.

Good morning all from a damp underfoot but dry at the moment Garngad
Off to Piperdam tomorrow, anyone been? Does the on site pub thingy have football? We will take added avenues to watch the game on Tuesday more about the family gathering and (hmmm a wee drink) than the footy. 22 of us going from age 3 to 85, cannot wait, I love nothing better than going away with family.
Anyway aye the hun agenda in full swing for Paterson and Gilmour.
TET best wishes to your good lady.

I see Lenny bumping his gums about players that were fit last year that didn’t want to play for him….blah de blah de blah.
Lenny should either tell us who they were or keep his mouth firmly closed.
Again it was someone else’s fault.

Shhhhhh He’s a legend don’t you know……
Newcastle United now owned by state sponsored killers.
It certainly takes corruption in football and sports washing to a whole new level.

PS i`ll have a look in Lidl later for that wine.I had an Aussie wine last night –The Black Stump — which I thoroughy enjoyed.

I wonder how our support would react if we were taken over by such people. What do you think?
I would like to think their would be wide spread demonstrations and ripping up of Season Tickets but I am not convinced many would respond any differently from the Newcastle support.
`there` !

There is another Oz wine that I had years back when I was visiting Ireland called The Black Chook, a Shiraz, only ever had it the once, it was really nice.
Lots of good Oz wines these days hitting the shelves, problem here is non Spanish wines are taxed to the hilt so we very rarely see them, just as well there is some great Spanish ones >:)
Must say tho that Lidl and Aldi are the best for affordability and quality here, esp Aldi but the nearest one to me is 100 miles away in Granada.

So you have never sang a song in support of Neil Lennon? Ever?
You shine more a light on you than you will ever on Neil Lennon?
Neil is part of our history not the other way around.
Join the rancid bomb senders in sniping/getting the dig in it has no impact on Celtic tho it randomly affects the odd unhappy customer what he farts about.
