What is the cost of Tom Rogic’s continuing absence for another two months? Tom has scored more than a few winning or equalising goals over the last two years. We could need him to deliver the third leg of the treble, or to keep the winning run in the league going, but this will not be the real cost.
Tom has been robbed of a precious three months during the most effective spell of his professional life. He improved with every passing month, got stronger, lasted the entire game and even scored a last minute winner.
With competition as it is at Celtic, he’ll be distraught. The personal target of all those who have been on an upward trajectory this season is to put their name on the team sheet for the summer’s Champions League qualifiers. For a player who the manager insisted worked for months before he was relied upon to last 90 minutes, any time he gets before the end of the season will be about recuperation.
For now, there should be no personal targets for Tom apart from being fully fit come June.
You know when you read a nugget which encapsulates much of the journey Scottish football has been on in recent decades? Chick Charnley yesterday on Jim Duffy: “When I played for him at Dundee and Hibs, he would give me Mondays off because he knew I enjoyed my weekends.”
And that was Chic making the case that Jim should have a higher job! Cheers.
Another quote to consider, this time from Brendan:
“There are three types of supporters. The first type who absolutely love you because you are the manager of Celtic. It doesn’t matter what you do, they’ll give you shirts and want you to sign everything.
“The second group are: ‘Okay, we’ll give you a chance and let’s see how you do. See if you win games and I’ll decide’.
“The third group, that’s the group who if you won five they’ll say you should have won seven. ‘You won 5-2? Why did you let in the two goals?’ You can never win!”
I wonder if he’s spoken to Gordon Strachan?
Oldtim
A question for those of you who have been here since the early days:
Oldtim made a significant first post on CQN but neither he nor I have a copy of it. It was, however, copied and referred to by many in the months that followed. If you have a copy, let me know. Thanks.

The Night of the Long Loaves…..
I have no knowledge of Scottish bankruptcy law.
But since many on here apparently do.
Would liquidating the present entity and buying the original club from liquidators be possible or make sense?
I’m sure the SFA would be willing to let them have the old clubs registration back and admit them to the bottom tier like sevco were allowed.
Paddy Power have suspended betting on Morton for Sunday!

What was that someone said about a troll?

From FF…
Imagine if a management team’s agent informed a club on Monday that they were triggering the resignation clause in their contract.
Imagine that said agent then attempted to withdraw that demand on the Thursday. Almost as if a job had fallen through.
Imagine if the Chairman then got fed up and decided to call their bluff after seeing the Forest through the trees….
Imagine they tried to say verbal resignation didn’t count without a letter and the club said ‘aye, right’.
OK – try reading this.

Is it just me or does this piece make absolutely no sense at all and does it totally contradict itself towards the end?
Roddy Forsyth once released a really stupid and ill-researched piece about the previous club and I honestly thought he would never make such a glaring mistake again.
However, it may well be the case that I was totally mistaken.
This is just astounding.
sorry the carolina chocolate drops – in gaelic. quite brilliant.

Don’t follow English football but Forest really that sh/t@ that they would want the breadman trio?
Some brilliant photoshop stuff on social media just now, some smart bhoys out there.

No Sevconian should be alone! Invite your Sevconian neighbour for trifle.

BFDJ on SSN, laughable p*sh.
Unless Warburton has actually put it in writing, then he has not resigned. If his agent tells the Club he is going to resign that counts for nothing. No person with even one brain cell would resign in writing unless they had a concrete offer from somewhere else.
