Delighted we have made the pre-contract signing of Gary Mackay-Steven. Gary signed for Dundee United from Airdrie in 2011 as a 20-year-old and soon became a popular figure for United fans. He has been one of several members of Jackie McNamara’s squad who has attracted attention this season and will be a loss to the former Celtic defender.
It’s all about the system
Gary is left-footed but can play on either side of the 3-behind-the-striker Ronny Deila likes to deploy. He is industrious and has a bag of tricks that makes for a good highlights video on YouTube.
I watched him turn it on against Dundee on New Years’ Day, and fondly recall a virtuoso Scottish Cup performance at Ibrox, but I’m always reluctant to offer a recommendation on a player we’ve only seen against Celtic, or in the odd TV game. The most encouraging part of this deal is that Celtic will have watched the player literally dozens of times – we want to get our first choice players, and we don’t want to be dependent on the recommendation of a foreign-based acquaintance.
United may consider cashing-in on the player this month, but I’m sure it won’t be for the £80k Sheffield United offered earlier this week.
This will be a timely boost ahead of tomorrow’s important game against Hamilton Accies, who I’ve watched a fair bit of this season. They are a far better team than we thought they were went they left Celtic Park with a win in October, while their pitch provides a different challenge.
It’s as game I expect us to win but I’ll be happy when the result is in the bag.
Many thanks to everyone who booked tickets for the CQN11 St Patrick’s Night on Friday 13 March at the Kerrydale suite. You can book at the bottom of this page, or email me if you’d like to hold a ticket, celticquicknews@gmail.com .
The event has been live for less than 24 hours and we are already well on the way to funding the school kitchen in Malawi for Mary’s Meals.

Alfie –
30 revolutions would be nice, thank you.
————————————————————————————————————–
And when all the companies that provide millions of jobs for ordinary folk and banks, where people keep there savings, transfer money and assets with the click of a mouse – and the rest of the world get on with their business as Europe crumbles – who looks after the ordinary person in the street? Dream on!!!!

Have these Huns not got any undersoil heating?.Or can they not afford to burn it?.
Disgraceful state of the pitch.
Celtic manager Ronny Deila and assistant John Collins are at Ibrox to take in the game.

For anyone interested in the reality of Foodbanks, this video is a must watch. Anyone who watches this video and critises Foodbanks and the essential need for them should hang their head in shame.

King calls for EGM and blazer for Paul Murray
Date: 16th January 2015 at 7:31 pm

Dave King has called for an EGM to remove the board of Sevco.
The man once described as a glib and shameless liar by a South African judge is the highest individual shareholder in the club after buying a 16% stake in the troubled club.
King sat as a non-exective director under disgraced Dave Murray and also alongside Craig Whyte as Rangers were driven into administration and liquidation in June 2012.
Being a director of a club that goes into liquidation brings a five year SFA ban from being a director in any football club but as they demonstrated with Mickey Ashley the rules are there to be negotiated.
King wants to hand a new blazer to Paul Murray who also sat as a non-executive director as Dave Murray accelerated the EBT scheme that remains disputed with Her Majesty’s Revenue and Custom’s.
Announcing his cunning plan tonight the non-billionaire stated: “I confirm that a requisition for a General Meeting has been hand delivered to Ibrox Stadium.
“The requisition consists of four resolutions for the removal of the incumbent board and three resolutions for the appointment to the board of myself, Paul Murray and John Gilligan.
“The resolutions do not seek to review the employment of the two executive directors presently on the board. They will merely be removed as directors.
“I would not have called for a General Meeting if I was not confident, from my review of the present shareholder register, that it will be supported by more than 50% of the total registered shareholders.
“While many of the shareholders hold differing views as to what is right for the club I believe that a clear majority are like-minded on one key point- the need to remove the incumbent board and to replace it with individuals who can gain the trust of fans, sponsors and the shareholder community.”
Mr King added: “An important task will be to conduct a forensic audit of the management and commercial contracts undertaken over the last few years to determine whether they are truly arms length and whether the affairs of the company have been pursued in accordance with the fiduciary obligations of those entrusted with that responsibility.”
King made no mention in his statement of the three rebel bears or any reference to the ownership of Ibrox which Mr Ashley is attempting to gain security over although Mr Whyte has a claim over that for Sevco 5088.
The huns are kettling the polis.

All the SFA has to do is follow the rules.
