After a long international break, the full Celtic squad resumed training this morning, two days before the visit of Hibernian. With a depleted Hearts facing Aberdeen at the same time, a win for Celtic could see the champions go top of the table on goal difference.
Aberdeen, in seventh place, are enduring their worst start to a campaign in years. The contrast between the trauma this has caused in the north east, with the euphoria of the team in sixth place is stark. But, with the Pittodrie squad is getting back to full strength at the same time as Hearts’ has weakened. I expect a return to trend at Tynecastle on Saturday.
The next two months will not be easy for Celtic. With European commitments, we have two games per week, apart from when the majority of the squad away on international duty again next month, but the sight of Celtic at the top of the table will look ominous to the rest of the league, and quieten down some of the manufactured hysteria over our early season dropped points.

JTT- ‘manmade ‘ snow will be next..
BMCUW- ?
I came across this in an article on Pat Nevin.
Nevin still takes stances on issues others may avoid. He stopped supporting Celtic because of the sectarianism.
I wonder how this sits with him,

Nevin writes for the Chelsea match programme,obviously no problem here.
A wee tune.

Bobby, I’ve got about twenty pairs of socks.
Paul67 has slept in. Or overslept as my teachers used to correct me.
Good morning CQN at 8am downtown Manhattan time.
Weather is glorious again.
Still blown away by this place, but I think a week or 2 is enough, goodness knows how people could live in this place constantly its manac.
Only 18k steps yesterday, trooping around after wife and son doing shopping.
Might go up to the parlour today and from there take a wee trip onto Harlem.
Laffatme is a thug, bigot, women beater and altogether not nice guy, allegedly. Probably be in hall of fame soon.
Anyway bring on the Hibees

You’re letting the wife and son take the lead?
Blinking flip,get a skateboard and a rope. Let them do the work.
Schoolboy error.
BMCUWP- lol
Thought about hiring an electric bike thingy.
My Bhoy wants to walk everywhere when there is a perfectly good subway. I suppose all that walking helps in some way. :)

He`s not an emergency worker.
He`s a husband and a Priest.
Where does his duty lie ?

I think you have been well answered by Bobby M and Jamesgang.
A good cleric and a good husband would do what is right in a given situation.
You invoke a school of thought that is not in keeping with today’s reality.
The irony is, that in the days when it was universally accepted that priests remain celibate, a potential father was not allowed to be within an ass’ roar of a labour suite.

I’ve been off the blog for a few days and have been enjoying your posts above about, I presume, your father’s handling of his religious calling. Absolutely great to read and about your visit to your great aunt in the USA – we’ve all got someone like that in our families ?. Keep up the good work. I really enjoy your posts.

For anyone who hasn’t came across Paddyontherailway here’s the link.

You won’t be disappointed he’s the best/funniest site out there at the moment, constantly ripping the p@@h out the Huns. Give it a read guys.
—————————-//////////////—————————-
Eddie, I agree, he is very funny. It’s just a pity about the “cursin and swearin”. The absence of this on CQN is a welcome relief and one of the major attractions of the site. It’s great to be able to direct footie-mad kids to CQN knowing that their encyclopaedic knowledge of swear words won’t be added to:)))))))))))))
IMHO, Paddy would be a whole load funnier without the swearies. But what do I know???
