For some months now, a CQN’er and academic has prepared a project to identify who we, the Celtic support, are in 2014, what our views are, where we come from and how closely our objectives align with the Club.
The project takes the form of a questionnaire, which asks some personal questions, like your political leanings, intentions for the Referendum, faith, education and ethnic heritage. No sign-up is involved and no identifying information is available.
There are also questions on the Offensive Behaviour Act, as well as the Club’s response to Resolution 12, The Green Brigade and the Living Wage.
The objective is to determine why you support Celtic and whether these reasons are being recognised and served.
I know Celtic have held similar surveys in the past but I’m not aware of a recent academic survey into these questions. The survey will close on Friday 26th September and results will be reported thereafter.
As with all surveys, the more people who participate the more reflective the results will be, so please 10 minutes to get involved. You’ll find the survey here.
If you have any questions for the author in relation to the survey please email cqn.survey@orange.fr
Thanks.
Pertaining to the above are allegations made about Aleks Tonev over the weekend.
It’s difficult to see where this one goes if the player says “I didn’t say that” without corroboration either way. Despite this, the allegation is damaging to Celtic, and to the player, so an internal and public reaction is needed to reiterate the values of the club.
Celtic’s induction process should be clear what is and is not acceptable.

I share mine with William Shakespeare, Vladimir Nabokov, Michael Moore and Roy Orbison…..and my split personalities. That’s a strong card…
I’ve filled it in but the credibility of any on line open to all anonymous polls is bound to be suspect.

Brian Wilson voted for the war in Iraq as did John Reid, Gordon Brown, Douglas Alexander, Alistair Darling when they probably already knew the validity of the WMD claims.

Also Alex Salmond clearly answered Nick Robinson’s question, and took several minutes doing so.
Brian Wilson can lecture nobody on intimidation.
Brian Wilson
I note he does not explain why when said demonstration passed the Daily Record (you know that paper the fud wrote in) and Sunday Mail office that there was not a pause to intimidate said journalists on route to the BBC headquarters or those od STV production. Both companies passed on route by the demonstration.
Fuds will be fuds.

Brian Wilson’s track “Record” indicates that he is a chancer.
Texas Chili Cook-off
If you can read the whole story without tears of laugher running down your cheeks then there’s no hope for you.
NOTE: Please take time to read this slowly. If you pay attention to the first two judges, the reaction of the third is even better. For those of you who have lived in Texas, you know how true this is. They actually have a Chili cook-off about the time the rodeo comes to town. It takes up a major portion of the parking lot at the Astrodome. The notes are from an inexperienced chili taster named Frank, who was visiting Texas from the East.
Frank: “Recently, I was honored to be selected as a judge at a chili cook-off. The original person called in sick at the last moment and I happened to be standing there at the judge’s table asking directions of two judges (Native Texans). They said that the chili wouldn’t be all that spicy and, besides, they told me I could have free beer during the tasting. So I accepted.” Here are the scorecards from the event:
CHILI # 1: MIKE’S MANIAC MOBSTER MONSTER CHILI
Judge # 1: A little too heavy on the tomato. Amusing kick.
Judge # 2: Nice, smooth tomato flavor. Very mild.
Judge #3 (Frank): Holy Mother of God! What is this stuff? You could remove dried paint from your driveway. Took me two beers to put the flames out. I hope that’s the worst one. These Texans are crazy
CHILI # 2: ARTHUR’S AFTERBURNER CHILI
Judge # 1: Smoky, with a hint of pork. Slight jalapeno tang.
Judge # 2: Exciting BBQ flavor, needs more peppers to be taken seriously.
Judge # 3: Keep this out of the reach of children. I’m not sure what I’m supposed to taste besides pain. I had to wave off two people who wanted to give me the Heimlich maneuver. They had to rush in more beer when they saw the look on my face
CHILI # 3: FRED’S FAMOUS BURN DOWN THE BARN CHILI
Judge # 1: Excellent firehouse chili. Great kick. Needs more beans.
Judge # 2: A bean less chili, a bit salty, good use of peppers
Judge # 3: Call the EPA. I’ve located a uranium spill. My nose feels like I have been snorting Drano. Everyone knows the routine by now. Get me more beer before the flames that come from my ears ignite again. Barmaid pounded me on the back, now my backbone is in the front part of my chest. I’m getting ****-faced from all of the beer.
CHILI # 4: BUBBA’S BLACK MAGIC
Judge # 1: Black bean chili with almost no spice. Disappointing.
Judge # 2: Hint of lime in the black beans. Good side dish for fish or other mild foods, not much of a chili.
Judge # 3: I felt something scraping across my tongue, but was unable to taste it. Is it possible to burn out taste buds? Sally, the barmaid, was standing behind me with fresh refills. That 300-lb. blonde lady is starting to look HOT – just like this nuclear waste I’m eating. They told me chili is an aphrodisiac!
CHILI # 5: LINDA’S LEGAL LIP REMOVER
Judge # 1: Meaty, strong chili. Cayenne peppers freshly ground, adding considerable kick. Very impressive.
Judge # 2: Chili using shredded beef, could use more tomato. Must admit the cayenne peppers make a strong statement.
Judge # 3: My ears are ringing, sweat is pouring off my forehead and I can no longer focus my eyes. I farted and four people behind me needed paramedics. The contestant seemed offended when I told her that her chili had given me brain damage. Sally saved my tongue from bleeding by pouring beer directly on it from the pitcher. I wonder if I’m burning my lips off.! It really pisses me off that the other judges asked me to stop screaming. Screw those rednecks.
CHILI # 6: VERA’S VERY VEGETARIAN VARIETY
Judge # 1: Thin yet bold vegetarian variety chili. Good balance of spices and peppers.
Judge # 2: The best yet. Aggressive use of peppers, onions, and garlic. Superb.
Judge # 3: My intestines are now a straight pipe filled with gaseous, sulfuric flames. I **** myself when I farted and I’m worried it will eat through the chair. No one seems inclined to stand behind me except that Sally. She must be braver than I thought. Can’t feel my lips anymore, and I really need to wipe my *** with a snow cone.
CHILI # 7: SUSAN’S SCREAMING SENSATION CHILI
Judge # 1: A mediocre chili with too much reliance on canned peppers.
Judge # 2: Ho hum, tastes as if the chef literally threw in a can of chili peppers at the last moment. I should take note that I am worried about Judge # 3. He appears to be in a bit of distress as he is cursing uncontrollably.
Judge # 3: You could put a grenade in my mouth, pull the pin, and I wouldn’t feel a thing. I’ve lost sight in one eye, and the world sounds like it is made of rushing water. My shirt is covered with chili which slid unnoticed out of my mouth. My pants are full of lava like **** to match my shirt. At least during the autopsy, they’ll know what killed me. I’ve decided to stop breathing, its too painful. Screw it, I’m not getting any oxygen anyway. If I need air, I’ll just suck it in through the 4-inch hole in my stomach.
CHILI #8: TOMMY’S TOE-NAIL CURLING CHILI
Judge # 1: The perfect ending, this is a nice blend chili. Not too bold but spicy enough to declare its existence.
Judge # 2: This final entry is a good, balance chili. Neither mild nor hot. Sorry to see that most of it was lost when Judge # 3 passed out, fell over and pulled the chili pot down on top of himself. Not sure if he’s going to make it. I wonder how he’d have reacted to really hot chili!
Awe Naw
just remove the word ‘probably’ from that last post and you are spot on.
fuds will be fuds
MWD says AYE
Only in a crazy world would one be suspicious of the conductors of the survey having the email address ‘@orange.fr’
With respect to the Survey question on whether the Celtic Board will vigorously pursue the aims of Resolution 12 I eventually went for Yes.
There has been a known factor that has prevented vigorous pursuit, I would say steady and helpful because of that factor rather than vigorous..
Once that factor is overcome I can see no option but for vigorous pursuit.

Brian Wilson writes for the Record
YESTERDAY’S flag-waving demonstration outside BBC Scotland’s headquarters was intended to intimidate journalists in the final days of the referendum campaign.
Instead, it should send an urgent message to the wider Scottish public. This is intolerance of a kind that has never been part of Scottish society – and which we invite in at our peril.
————————————
did you awe naw that, or is that the verbatim script ?
Thisis intolerance of a kind that has never been seen in scottish society ……….
meanwhle in a chapel near you, all through the summer months, the distant drums and flutes can be heard coming ever closer to intimidate the mass goers.
proud to be part of the celtic family

I’m struck by the honest self-evaluation of your post. I think it compares well to the dishonest flippancy that’s pervaded the blog in recent times.
Hope your son reads it and takes pride in his dad today.
I’m sure there isn’t one of us who goes to games who hasn’t acted out of turn at least once and rued our stupidity.
Always with Celtic, there’s the next game.

Mmm the nats obviously hate Brian Wilson as much as they hate George Galloway.
on the survey, bit disappointed there were not more categories .
I didnt get to answer my maw was an english born protestant with a Ulster Belfast orangeman grandfather.
bit selective on the old survey.
are we trting to put us all in the one box ?

The BBC must be getting used to demos by nutters.
First they had the huns demanding parity of esteem.
And now they’ve had the nats demanding control of the airwaves.
What a country.
Find it odd people on here have found Tonev guilty. Innocent until proven that not the case,if he’s guilty get him out the door.
Maybe sheep has picked him up wrong maybe he’s lying. Remember Kingston at hearts making false allegations against a ref. Maybe he’s telling the truth,but throwing the first stone without evidence is very poor.

I had to cross over the arc bridge yesterday , just as the car-cade of protestors were making their way from the bbc.
i had no idea it was on.
but just in passing, it was made up of many many family group, maws, paws, the weans and their grand parents. there was very noticeable number of disabled in attendance.
a least threatening group of placard wavers i have never seen.
thats free speech, thats democracy, go meet and shout at buildings al you want.
well done.
Self serving political careerists with no talent whatsoever. Scotland has produced too many career socialists. Westminster has been very kind to them and their bank balances. The Iraq war shows the lengths these men will go to to stay in power and to keep their privileged positions. Galloway will do and say anything to be the centre of attention

Incoherent shouting is the worst kind of shouting…
I wonder what Wilsons fee is from the Daily Record for writing that piece ?
Tens of pounds ?

MWD,
have you decided which way you are voting on Thursday?
You seem a bit rudderless and are sailing aimelessly down the sitting on the fence route…..
HAIL! HAIL!

PS – On a serious note, please dont use the Norway comparison. I know you are bigger and better than that.
Hi Paul67!
Slightly disappointed that when I clicked on the survey link it didn’t play The Who – Who are you?!
Yours in Celtic,
TB&F.
totally off topic.
After the match on saturday, i was at what i think must be CQN corner in the hope of seeing CRC or Doc, when an auld fella walked up and unchained a bike from the railings, easily the man was over 65.
he had a wee chat with another man, there, saying it was 5 miles to his house and the new cyclepathways made it a great way to get to an from the game on a dry day like saturday.
maybe we are becoming healthier as a nation, a small example.
my forehead astounded more, when up at the burger van behind the celtic end, another even older auld fella , produces one of the foldaway bikes , jumps on and away he goes.
made me chuckle, bliddy magic.
anyone know any of these fine fellas.
The survey wants to know which part of Ireland my granny came from but neglects to ask where in Scotland my grandfather came from
What did poor Delia do to deserve this?
Heard she’s a really nice lassie….
Ernie in your little world is everybody who votes for Independence a Scots Nat? I’d appreciate a straight answer. Hail Hail Hebcelt
Ole survey has been completed.
Why no question on whereabouts of Seville money, new left/right back , poppies?
St Stivs,
I was about to say that it might be Jungle Jim…..until i saw it was “only” 5 miles the aul fella was cycling.
Thats a warm-up for JJ!
HAIL! HAIL!

Firstly, I recommend you spell our club manager’s name correctly; a basic requirement.
Secondly, please pay attention to your keyboard, to ensure that you cease shouting.
Thank you.
Dontbrattbakkinanger,
Can the blog only have one designated moron, or is there room for a few??
Feeding frenzy on here is never healthy reading.
Shame.
Who are we again?
