If you live long enough you get to hear or read just about everything. Today some in the old media are telling us Celtic and Rangers (sic) are both chasing a soon-to-be out of contract Manchester United player. The way it used to work is an agent would fly into Glasgow to see Celtic or Rangers, and make sure the other club had an option on the player their rivals were pursuing.
Anyone who thinks Newco can rival Celtic for a footballer had better consult their medication. The rules have all changed, in Glasgow, we stand alone.
Final shout for the ITUC’s 22nd minute Fifa protest tomorrow.
Today’s CQteN raffle winner, of a signed Celtic strip, is John McDonald, from table 36. If it’s the John McDonald I’ve just emailed, congratulations… If not, we’ll find you.
Today is World Down Syndrome Day. For too long those with Down’ have been stigmatised, shown a lack of human respect, or worse. The ‘does he take sugar’ days were not so long ago. World Down Syndrome Day is a about raising awareness and changing our perceptions.
Have to say I’m enjoying the Aberdeen fans’ ‘Peter Pawlett Baby’ campaign. Human League’s ‘Don’t you want me baby’ has flown up the charts on the back of delirious Aberdeen fans, celebrating their position as one of Scotland’s top two. Crazy stuff like this is how football clubs grow.
For all those who have supported Marys’ Meals over recent weeks and months, here’s a cheery video from them, with a little help from Pharrell Williams.
Seville – The Celtic Movement is another cheery wee thing.
“Somewhere around 5am and Glasgow airport is only open for Seville flights and is a sea of green and white. I’ve 80 Euros, my passport, boarding pass and a ticket in my shorts, Celtic top on, no baggage of any description. The happiest queue of all time has formed.”

BT, I’ll say hello if he’s not too busy.
Henke was a truly wonderful player and I loved his humility when he said Celtic were as good for him as he was for Celtic.Great players do not need to be arrogant to be winners,contrary to what that erse Sourness once claimed.
Just wondering though…..If we had a 27 year old Henke at Paradise now……How much would Peter Lawell be looking to sell him for in the transfer window?……,,….hmmmm

Looking forward to tomorrow, it’s our once a season bevy day oot in the Gallowgate.
That’s before and after the match :) :) :)
Doc
never too busy for fello fans
Headers of the ball………has to be James McGrory: 472 goals in 445 matches. A Celt in heart mind and spirit. The term legend is used wily nilly to describe many footballers these days.
McGrory most certainly was a legend for our club
TT , a wonderful post . From the heart and the memories and the images were vivid and true.
HH my man

Anybody else think that McMoist in the stand at Tynecastle will be subject to abuse à la NL?

Firstly, many thanks for the nice birthday comments on here today!
The FB posts, tweets, texts and cards were much appreciated…you know who you are.
TT – a lovely story about a lovely lady. You’ve got some good memories there! I hope they continue to bring a smile to your face.
Zbyszek – best to ignore the multiple poster, who resides nowhere near Nevada….unlike ole Kojo!

Belated birthday wishes – at this rate you’ll be catching up with me! :-)
Fav uncle
don’t think jungle jim was at the night, didn’t notice auldheid in any either.

Very Happy Birthday.
Is KevJ posting under pseudonyms a CQN version of “Where’s the Wally” game?
I don’t see the point in having more than one log in. Especially if you use your 2nd posting name in order to praise the posts of your original identity.
Self praise is no praise at all.
Plus, it’s so bleedin obvious.
On a day where Tiny Tim’s post has soared to the best heights that CQN can produce, it really looks tawdry when these other characters come on.
Any takers for the quiz ?
Vmhan
Great to meet you and Johnny.
TTTT
happy birthday.
Just a footnote on the Hearts match that they have still scored less goals in their ground this season than Celtic have in 3 games. Some record that!

John O’Neill –
Do you really think it was appropriate to make a nasty political point out of Tiny Tim’s moving post?
That wasn’t the time or place.
Shame on you.
TinyTim
A very personal and moving post. Thanks for sharing.
