Lots of frustration around today at the possibility the first leg of the Champions League qualifier will be switched to Belfast. It will be no comfort to those who booked travel yesterday but we are in this situation every qualifying game. The draw is made and confirmed a day or two later, which is why clubs (including Celtic) and CQN yesterday ran a “Don’t book travel until…” piece. On most occasions nothing is changed which means fans are caught out when change happens.
No reason why Uefa can’t deal with this on the day of the game, or exclusively on the basis of strict criteria. I hope they deny this request, which is not in Celtic’s favour and clearly not in fan’s best interest.
Two items to draw your attention to today:
Tommy Burns Skin Cancer Trust
Tommy Burns Skin Cancer Trust are undertaking a sponsored cycle of all SPL grounds this September in attempt to get to our £100k fundraising target. This money will be used to help on the battle to fight skin cancer working with organisations such as Beatson Cancer Centre. The event is called Tour for Tommy and will span 5 days, 12 clubs and 380 miles of cycling before returning to Celtic Park on Sunday 15th September. Ex-Celts such as Packie Bonner and Frank McGarvey are joining in as the full event and Bertie Auld will be completing the last day. The event is looking to team up with the fans of each club to join them on a leg from their stadium to the next.
The group have much of the logistics in place and most of the riders, but they need more help. Each of the four main days are being offered for sponsorship with day one already taken up. In return the 30-40 core riders will get their clothing made with that company’s logo as well as any signage on press releases at the stadiums among other benefits (full pack available upon request). The Tour has already received great coverage from Sky Sports with further commitment to track the whole event.
In addition the charity are looking for donations of anything from water bottles, energy bars/drinks to medical supplies and biking mechanical supplies.
If you are interested in getting involved in any way you can contact scottmcgarvey@gmail.com. You can donate here, follow on Facebook and twitter (@tommyburnsSCT).
I know many of you will be aware of the work done by Celtic fans for the people of Haiti as part of the Hoops For Haiti campaign. This is another aspect of the incredible work done by Celtic fans and a credit to our club. You can read their blog here and get involved here.

Re Brian McClair, if my memory serves me right, which is not very often, Brian McClairs transfer fee was relevant to how much he was on at Celtic at the time, which apparently bit the old board on the bum, had he been on a better contract Celtic would have received more money for him.
pedro
I’m liking this idea of CQN in the Canaries…
Hh
Absolutely Cowiebhoy, I have a new grandchild due in 6 weeks myself and all that is important to me is that mother & child will be healthy. However when I see all the young wans calling their kids all these strange names, I long for the Seans, Paddys & Micks, The Anns, Marys & Bridgets anyhow don’t take any notice of me, Im just an old fashioned git.

ABSOLUTELY …….AND HOW GOOD DOES IT FEEL …… DOES NOT GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS……. OUR DAY HAS COME, BIGTIME, AND I’M LOVING IT ……!!!!!
Brian McClair’s transfer was set by the transfer tribunal at £850k if I remember rightly.
Seem to remember Swalex was not too happy at having to pay as much as that!!!!!!

You can play hide & seek in Lanzarote…..or just hide…..
congrats to the poster who became a grandparent
but its made me realise that average age of the bloggers here must be middle aged
and alot in their 50s and 60s, alot retired
cqn is turning into an old peoples forum
no wonder there are so many vicious personalised downright nasty arguments at times here
not to mention the insane levels of paranoia
new posters being asked if they are huns which is a disgraceful way to welcome new posters
67 heaven
Yeah bud, I think we are absolutely correct to be pursuing thems for justice sake and so history records as a proven fact their corruption.
But we really should just sit back sometime and bask in the fact that that that poisonous mob of hate are dead.
Magic eh?

Asking them if they are huns, or should that be zombies now, is a joke on here that has been around for years. It is a CQN right of christening which is passed down through the bloggers.
BTW not in my 50s or 60s or 70s (before u start MWD)
If you drop me a mail, I can send you a batch of chill pills :-)

ps trust you are not a zombie in disguise? :-)

west csc Asking new posters if they are a Hun is a joke, all lurkers know full well its a joke before they make their first post. I seem to remember your good self making a few controversial posts in your time and reading your effort at 22.46 , I ask myself if that is what the lad thinks about the site, why does he continue to post here, unless of course you are a Hun.
west csc
Agreed. All over 50s should be limited to 3 posts a week and 2 hours reading time, MAX!!!
That’ll learn em.
Corkcelt,
Was on LinkedIn yesterday, and in a list of you may want to connect, was a Sean Patrick ……..,

Absolutely ……. I can honestly say that NOT ONE OF THEM has said one word to me for about a year now ……. They know I would ‘go for the jugular’, metaphorically speaking of course…hahahahahahahahahahahaha …..the last time I had a conversation with a zombie my comment was ” there are 2 alternatives here. You either know feck all about football, or you are a bigot….take your pick” ….. He hasn’t spoken to me since…..and what a bonus THAT is …..as I said earlier…..I’m loving it, and the football these days…..!!!!!!!! Hahahahahaha
