Aye, sure, Dick Advocaat would like to sign Virgil van Dijk for Sunderland. Of course he would, but Virgil is very unlikely to go to Sunderland for a host of reasons. Many clubs have made inquiries about Virgil but the player has an understanding with the club.
For a start, he’s going nowhere until after the Champions League qualifiers are over with, and even then, player and club have agreed that only approaches from tier-one clubs will be considered. No disrespect intended for Sunderland, but a haul of one cup in 79 years leaves them well off the pace.
The prospect of Celtic being interested in Steven Fletcher, as reported in The Herald this morning, is unlikely to make any difference. If Fletcher is wanted it will be for the qualifiers, there will be no quid pro quo.
Virgil has two years left on his contract and there’s little prospect of him extending his stay in Scotland, so if Celtic decide to listen to offers in late August it’ll do no harm having as many English clubs as possible bidding portions of their TV bounty for the player. So let Sunderland bid away.
You and I have been working on the whole Mary’s Meals project for a couple of years now. It’s not a big part of any of our lives, but what we’ve done is a big part in the lives of thousands of kids we’ll never know.
Reaching the 1 million kids fed each day figure last month has reinvigorated the charity. It’s a worldwide phenomenon but incredibly started here in Scotland.
At midnight tonight a couple of guys will start to walk the West Highland Way, 96 miles, a 17 thousand feet ascent. They hope to complete the journey within 24 hours.
You and I know that not every journey is completed on time, some, sadly, will never be completed……… but these two are close to hitting their £6k target figure for Mary’s Meals before they set off. Go and give them a a couple of pounds, help drive them on to complete the task. Every £1 you give will feed a child for a month. A month! Tell me you’re going to do something better today and I’ll not believe you.

I am all for getting a good price for virgil and investing those funds in new players on the park focusing first on CH
But what I am 100% against is a repeat of the Vic shambles, removed our rock in central midfield and funds kept for AGM balance sheet and then used to make up for No CL
Peter lawell has previous on this
Either give all the funds from virgil to ronny to strengthen or leave virgil in the team and we can earn money with success on the park
No more AGM balance sheet transfers

Hey man
Just say the word
It’s good to see although it’s heavily policed now. A lot of the older stuff that’s dying out. A great day out for anybody. Not just travellers
Hey we’ve been here for thousands of years and we aren’t going away.
I hated my name as a child. Got ribbed the same way as Cecil
When I joined the army we were know by our second names. I never told anyone my first name. Then I met the padre who wanted to give me a bible. What’s your name. I told him. No your first name. Lewis says I
Cue weeks o slagging in a loooiisss in a camp voice. Noo it’s a really cool name. Noo when I give my name people say it must have been trendy.
Regards to Patrice(beautifiul name) and Lewis (ho hum)

Scots like me, sing the James Connolly ballad best. Greatest ever Scot!
Ask 16roads, I sang it to him on Falls Road in February.
Tallybhoy at 21.51, that miserable little englander Tyldsley never mentions our European Cup win. I thought last year he might have as the final was in Lisbon, but no mention of it.
His comments about the streaker at the 2002 final when he said what would you expect in Scotland. irked.me. The streaker was that scouse guy who has streaked many a time.

Bitch!!!
Roy I love you more!
But what I loved about you best was that you looked just like Roy Croppie should!!!!
We may all have to share your aura!

Do you know what day today is?
I just remembered in time.
Here’s a hint
3min 29 seconds in you will see There are many ways to be brave
But here’s the man at his best
What’s a good key for you- Whis-key
And what he’s remembered for
My favourite Levi song
Happy Levi Stubbs day
ST I am now in complete agreement re PL. We need rid of him pronto. HH
Does anyone know if there is a link between the Orange Order and the Church of Scotland? If there is ,what is it? If there is, the Church of Scotland should end it if it is serious about ending bigotry in Scotland.

I posted last night that I love your affection for James Connolly, I have heard it all my life but listen to it more now through your good self, likewise with FourGreenFields, I always heard the songs but didn’t listen too the words, we all have our favourites, Grace is the song I will get buried too, it’s already been agreed because it means a lot too me and my good lady thinks it’s beautiful !
Some poster on here put me on to Pangur Ban, their versions of our songs are magic

Do we think the Glasgow council would allow a
celebration of the Irish communities contribution to
Scottish life starting with a commemoration of
Ireland inception as a democratic free state, the
100th anniversary of the Easter rising?

Patrice and Lewis are the image of me. Good Polish/Irish genes. ;))
Shieldmuir The origins of the KKK go back to Scots immigrants with Orange credentials.

To be honest pal there are very few links between the OO and any church.
Most Church of Scotland churchgoers would view the OO as white trash bigots who have nothing to do with Christianity. In my experience.

DD,
I am sure the Scot’s sing James Connolly the best, but wait until you hear sung in a Dublin pub.
Not saying it is any better but I think you will connect with it in Dublin.
GFTB
Would love to meet you in Dublin 2016.
SFTB, Levi Subbs, my favourite male singer. What a voice, perfect for soul,
His vocals on Baby I need your loving and where did you go are fantastic.
Levi Stubbs tears right enough.

Though I know the situation across the water is not necessarily the same…..

Dealney’s, were FOCUS out in force today at the march?

I love the Angelus respected in Dublin pubs.

Heavy Police presence. My mug is on a database again.

PL is no longer fit for purpose. Time for him to be gone from our club.
DD, my nephew just left Uni after spending some years with his sister as good friends…Celtic pictures all over the house…
Not all pubs now, but I will bring you to a couple of good ones.
Hope to see you in Clogherhead on your way to Dublin, plenty to see here.
You are both welcome to kip here.
Battery about to here.

They are linking me to Faslane peace camp as I post.
Come Kingdom Come!
Jamesgang, ha ha. The picture of the two guys in waterproofs with their sashes on the outsdie could have been FOCUS guys being undercover but acting as they normally do.

Wee yin had her school fair today or a wee trip fae Sunnyside to Waverely could have been a goer, my sister and her man (Hibee) stay just off Leith walk so fancied a wee trip through but wee yins school funds had to come first, I mentioned to Clogher Celt half jokingly about next Easter then the good lady said “well you always wanted to visit Ireland so 2016 is as good a reason as any” starting a new job soon but holidays permitting I think me, the good lady & the wee blade are going next April
Delaney’s, the J Edgar style of policing is not the way forward. American criminals were investigated by guys who broke more laws than those they were persuing.
A couple of Clydebank guys I worked with joined the MOD polis. They alternate between Faslane & Coulport.
Sydneytim, how are you?
As well as it being winter in Australia, it feels like winter here the now.
PL has become an unhealthy and divisive influence on our club. There’s the door PL.
GFTB
Magic. I love your input here. Know I would love you in real life.
Our revenge will be the laughter of our children. Bobby Sands MP
Gerry,
Good man,
If it doesn’t work out for Easter (and I am sure it will)
You are all welcome anytime.
Delighted to read about the job.

Nicol?
