Scottish football has afforded defending champions the courtesy of a home game on the first day of the season to allow the league championship flag to be unfurled at the start of the new campaign for as many decades as I remember.
As this has, in effect, become a courtesy to give Celtic a home start to the campaign in as many years as my sons can remember, we’ll be at Tynecastle on the opening day of the season. Flag Day will have to wait.
That said, I like the idea of taking on Hearts away, then our nearest challengers, Aberdeen, at home. Come through this successfully and we will be in excellent shape for the campaign.
The Aberdeen game comes immediately after the final round of European qualifiers, so we have an opportunity to finish August in a real high – if we get the preparatory work done early enough.
Bring it on. We don’t need no stinkin’ courtesies.

Liked Dave out of Hairy Bikers, when discussing the culinary merits of Halibut, refer to it as, and I quote: “Aaaah Halibut, the cow of the sea”
Halibut is meaty, and without doubt the tastiest thing to come out of the sea. It almost justifies its outrageous cost.
The clue is in the letter H. All of the tastiest fish begin with the letter “H”
Halibut, Hake, Haddock and Herrings :)

Lawrenson was at his best last night. “The Albanian fans sound as if they’re going to war, but in a frriendly way”.

Maybe Ernie was right and he was educated by Jesuits after all.

Hopefully Brendan has had a good look at the videos of the disasters against Legia Warsaw,Molde,Malmo and the Huns and gets at least six of the culprits out the door pronto.
If we can’t sell them then free them.
A new,fresh Celtic is required.
Ambrose,Lustig,Boyata,Johansen for starters out for me.
Definite keeps.Gordon,Sviatchenko,Rogic,Tierney,and Griffiths.
Time for real action Brendan.

Too injury prone for me.Another punt.
Just arrived home from Falkirk and the taxi driver said to me that there is an Orange walk in Falkirk next weekend,seemingly there’s going to be 100 bands playing, he said there will be 4 hrs disruption.
As Pauls header say’s, We don’t need no stinking orange order walking through our town.

Re. Kevin McCarra? Was his being reported missing based on the concerns of a worried wife or was there more to it?
