White shirted fitness freaks arrive at Training Centre

911

Fixtures are out and the management team are in-situ at Bobbylennoxtown; the air of anticipation for a new chapter in a 126-year-old story lies heavy over Celtic supporters.  I wish we were starting tomorrow.

If you are a Celtic player, what would your overbearing sentiment be today?  If it was me, looking at photos of those two white-shirted fitness freaks at the Training Centre today, I’d be tempted to get out for a run, before the real business starts next week.

There are only a few things a manager can do in his first few days in charge of a new squad but setting standards for fitness and training are two clear examples.  Monitoring is not just about stepping on the scales anymore, the players will have their body fat, glycogen levels and heart beats documented from when they get back and throughout the season thereafter.  With benchmarks for all, as well as performances.  I’m feeling tired even thinking about it.

Visit the CQN Bookstore to get Tommy Gemmell to sign your personal copy of his book, All the Best.

    You will be hard pushed to avoid fitbaTV in Marmaris and if Engurland are still in Brazil then you will not be allowed to forget it.

     

     

    Icmeler is next door and not quite so lively.

     

     

    A short boat trip to Turunc is enjoyable especially with a sea breeze on your toasted skin.

     

    Have a good time and splash on the high factor.

     

     

     

    You should have come to Fethiye, though.

    He could commentate ‘for fun’ and he could do a better job than Leighton Baines

    They might send for Motty – but it would be too late.

  3. Has anybody told oor Ronny about the rare Norwegian Blue parrot nesting down Govan way?

  4. Bobby Lennox would beat any bird of prey, including the old peregrine falcon, in a 100 metre sprint/swoop.

    A majority of Scots in the Borders area plan to vote to stay in the UK in September’s independence referendum, a poll has found.

     

     

    A ComRes survey for ITV Border News of voters in Dumfries and Galloway and the Scottish Borders council areas in June found 61% propose to vote No, up from 59% in January.

     

    ================================================================

     

     

    61% of what number?

     

     

    The entire region has desperate demographics and its a major fight by central government to try and retain viable populations in many parts of it…….thats a fact by the way, not speculation or conjecture.

     

     

    Just saying……

  6. For years the posters of CQN deliberated over the identity of Ernie Lynch.

     

     

    Is he a journo?

     

     

    A politician?

     

     

    Possibly a Hun even???

     

     

    No, on this day, the 19th June in the year of our Lord 2014, his anonymity was stripped and the mask removed.

     

     

    Step forward…….

    I just listened to Luan and Lenny interview on the 5 live podcast. Absolutely brilliant! Lenny committed to taking the youngster to Celtic Park.

    Well done Smurf. Might get to the show on Sunday so will look out for him, I assume he will be the one in the green and white hooped sheepskin?

    Thanks for the link.

     

    Best part of the show was Luan and NFL chatting.

     

     

    Is Luan one of Rioskorrie’s bhoys?

     

     

    I think we need to be told.

    ‘Falcons are well respected in the desert. Many competitions televised.’

    That’s part of the problem. The demand for peregrines in the middle east has created a demand for stolen eggs/chicks. Wild Scottish birds seem to be particularly sought after*.

    I don’t know what else he’s in for, but keep your eye out for him. He’s in the Ryeland breed section. Unfortunately not in green and white hoops, I wish. :-)))
