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.”

S, I can’t believe how the news must be devestating the family right now.
Always in our thoughts and prayers pal.
FP!!! :-)
BB, dunno it didn’t say. Probably brown with all that shite that runs about it every second Saturday.
Grass clippings “from” £29.99. Kind of makes me wonder what clever ploy they’re using for selling the ones above £29.99.
That’s made my day. I think I’m going to call and ask how much an eight by four frame would set the average zombie back.
We do indeed stand alone because the rest of the world is led to believe that ‘The Rangers’ are the same Rangers that once played at Ibrox and are being liquidated.

I see the CQN IRA brigade have been out insulting Scots as usual. Probably whilst living in Scotland, claiming their pensions whilst taking their free prescriptions prescribed by their Indian doctor whip finds Scotland a great place to raise his family. Newest tactics – we should be ashamed by the actions of slave traders, new world colonists from 300 years ago. We are. So should every person and country who has been a total b@@@@@@d in the past.
How about the Republic of Ireland denying Jewish refugees asylum from the holocaust – sending them back to the gas chambers- does that count as ‘rotten to the core?’
Or even…….De Valera visiting the german ambassador in 1945 to pass condolences on Adolf Hitler’s death – is that rotten too?
Or the thousands of brave Irishmen denied jobs on their return because they fought against facism during ww2 after being inspired by the spanish civil war – is that rotten enough for you? Are we playing the rottenaboutery game?

many years ago my father brought out board games for all the major clubs in the u.k.
They were all branded etc and based on an actual pitch you played around monopoly style.One club though had to have the pitch a different colour as Hugh Adam told my father ‘they’ the fans of that club would not buy it with any green on it

From previous…..

A wee football question if you don’t mind ?
I don’t know the answer myself, that’s why I
came on here to see if some ‘esteemed’ tim
could help me out ?
Right, here goes……
Is it true that, The Original Holy Goalie, played in eleven Cup finals for Celtic
without losing any ?
As I said, I don’t know the answer but that is some record if true, eh ?
*unfortunately John played in the controversial 1964 League Cup Final losing 1-2 to the deid team. The reason I say controversial is that Ritchie pulled the ball back after Celtic players claimed it was over the line, of course the press using pictures taken proved this to be fruitless.
Although he played in the 1965 Scottish Cup Final which we won 3-2 the following October he had been replaced by Ronnie Simpson for the League Cup Final which we won 2-1.
He did return to play in the 1969 Scottish and 1968 and 69 League Cup Finals (both played in 1969).
a wee damping down ———
Just heard a radio interview with Pirlo .
Seemed chuffed with his freekick v Fiorentina . He said it was the 42nd time he had scored a direct free kick .
He repeated that he is going to retire after the forthcoming World Cup .
Lovely day , tanning hot, way down south.
Can I wish CQN leg-end TommyTwistsTommyTurns a very happy 50th Birthday today!
I know the fact that he is only 50 will come as a surprise to most, it certainly did to me.
Somebody else must have worn his face before him :-)

My mother did that Arbeit macht frei thing in 2 different locations . She had two tattoos —-one on her left forearm and one on her left breast . A nightmare for the Nazi scum -an inferior being who survived and bred..
She was refused service in a posh 1950s London hotel because she had a visible tattoo.!

Or even…….De Valera visiting the german ambassador in 1945 to pass condolences on Adolf Hitler’s death – is that rotten too?
………………………………………………..
Suppose diplomatic protocol was observed if this happened.
Lots of strange things happened during the war. It is said that many of the big banking/industrial families made money from both sides.
I was given a copy of a letter from the boss of Babcock’s works in Germany to Hitler congratulating him on surviving the attempt on his life by the old-school army officers.
That works made pressure vessel rollings for U-boat hulls and many other uses that don’t bear thinking about, while their British/US works helped our war effort.
Strange world we live in.

I’ll be in touch soon. Hope you have had a restful few days to recover from last weekend.

That was my PIN number needless to say I changed it !!
Is my memory playing tricks or did the huns not lay their pitch with Kentucky blue grass and had to re-surface it, due to it not being suitable for field games?
Ps, it wasn’t blue either.
