There appears to be nothing more than a desire to move-on behind Johan Mjallby’s decision to leave Celtic at the end of the season but it leaves the original four man coaching team of Neil Lennon, Alan Thompson, Mjallby and Garry Parker reduced down to two. The management team needs to be rebuilt.
Assistants do more than just put the cones out and get players go through their paces. They are an extra pair of eyes and ears, at the side of the field and in the dressing room. When they are most effective, they are a source of learning, bringing improved techniques and ideas into the club, forcing the manager to reconsider established practices.
Strip some of the greats of their productive partners and they proved to be prosaic underachievers; Cough without Taylor was a sorry sight. By contrast, Ferguson played the assistants’ game perfectly, swapping them every few years to enhance his stock with fresh flavour.
Alan Thompson was not directly replaced but irrespective of the speculation which constantly surrounds the club, a wind of change will blow through Lennoxtown this summer, filling the gaps in the original four man team.
If you’ve wondered about getting involved with some of the charity events surrounding the club there is a perfect opportunity coming up. The Foundation is having a badge day at the Dundee United game on Sunday 11 May. This is an important opportunity to anchor the ethos of the club to its roots by engaging thousands of Celtic fans in the simple act of buying a badge for charity.
All monies raised will go towards supporting those afflicted by homelessness in the Glasgow area. I volunteered to help on the day and offered to put the word around, over 100 bucketeers are needed. If you want to help, all you’ll need to do is turn up early for the game, wear a hi-vis vest and hold a bucket, but I can assure you, you’ll enjoy it. Email the foundation with your name and phone number: cfcfvolunteer@celticfc.co.uk .

Now i was just looking at. What killie got up to when the hoops where after Tommy burns from them and that they said Celtic where at it, and I was into it because of the killie dodgy players signature on a team sheet in today’s red tops, and look at this little gem I found, seems we where paying players illegally and where found guilty, and had to pay the tax on it, I didn’t know this?

No problem. My fault for not realising I was still posting on the previous article!
Was just wondering why Lisbon wasn’t on your list. Don’t take this the wrong way, but, were you there, and that’s why you omitted it?

That was meant to be a compliment,believe it or not.
I honestly believed that you were trying to be funny/mischievous/on the wind up,when you posted that balderdash about the Dundalk to Belfast railway line being lit up like a motorway.
How could that even be logical/possible in this day and age,never mind back in the 1940’s?
That’s why I didn’t respond to the post at the time,because I thought that you were having a laugh.
I thought it was hilarious.
Sorry.

A guid yin!
Any bhoys. Back to real subject
What is really important is none of our players are sold to give good results at AGM. We are financially sound
ST ( supports no more PL transfers for his bonus )
I can’t believe that back in the nineties Celtic thought they would get away with not paying taxes on wages, there is not on team in the world who would get away with………………awe here, hawd oan wait a minute?
16 Roads et al.
For anyone who may be interested,this,from memory,was what I posted about the accusation,ludicrous as we know,that Celtic floodlights guided German bombers.
I suggested that this may be what the accusers were referring to.
Wiki.:Belfast Blitz.
“At night Dublin was the only city without a blackout between New York and Moscow, and between Lisbon and Sweden; German bombers often flew overhead to check their bearings using its lights, angering the British.[16] One widespread criticism was that the Germans located Belfast by heading for Dublin and following the railway lines north. In The Blitz: Belfast in the War Years, Brian Barton wrote: “Government Ministers felt with justification, that the Germans were able to use the unblacked out lights in the south to guide them to their targets in the North.” Barton insisted that Belfast was “too far north” to use radio guidance.”
Interestingly enough,the Luftwaffe also bombed Dublin,By mistake.Apparently.
Beatbhoy
I wasn’t at Lisbon but at Parkhead for Red Star. A bit too young to afford to go abroad.
Never forget that night. My dear departed Maw was at the bingo that night in the Gallowgate and she came in ‘well on.’ She was plied with bevy on the bus home to Easterhouse.
Frank Ryan’s Idiosyncratic Spelling
Talking about Empire, the iconic Robert Burns clearly approved – his ambition was to be a slave-master in the West Indies.. ‘A man’s a man for a’ that..’ Utter cant.
The Catholic hierarchy in Ireland approved too. Irish missionaries followed in the wake of British soldiers as night followed day.
The sleekit one is doing his pre game press interview today for the weekend?
I’m assuming he gonny be rather busy tomorrow, lol.
What have the Irish ever done for us?

Red Star. . . Wee Jinky especially motivated that night. ‘Flight-avoiding” performance!
Looks like the SNP have enforced ‘Stop and Search’ down South.
And with even better results!

Jeepers, I never knew there was black outs in Cork during the war. My Ma & Da sitting in the dark and the bloody Dubs having a ball. I suppose now we know what the Paschal fires were all about, it had bugger all to do with religion, we were just guiding German Bombers up to Belfast. Guess thats why we sent all our Fire Brigades up to help them put the fires out, it wasn’t a humanitarian gesture at all, we were just feeling a wee bit guilty.

Moonbeams,
You are the exception.
Repetition is your forte.
IMHO
Even if Killie have “forged” a players signature
Sandy Bryson has ensured that there is nothing to see here move along.
I await with interest the outcome of this one.
At the time after calming down(slightly) :)) I thought ONE DAY this will come back and bite Bryson & the SFA on the Bahoooooooooky. :)))
Any Mac users on at the moment?
I am trying to C & P my Boarding Pass to email to someone with a printer. I succeeded once but the process was convoluted guesswork and I cannot repeat it! I am not given the option to email when I open the Boarding Pass page and it won`t allow C & P of the actual pass. I know I could try Communities but CQN has worked in the past !

That Wiki thing isn’t the most reliable of sources,as you know.
Ah well,no worries.
The Irish were responsible for the American slave trade,also they were responsible for the sins of the British Empire,and the rise of Nazism in Europe.
I don’t care anyway,it’s none of my business.
No point me posting all the crimes of so-called Scottish people throughout the ages either.
What good would that do,or what difference would it make to anything?

I`ll have a proper look at those pages when I come back but thanks very much for your suggestion…..especially as Th BH is now open 0:-)

I know you are old and this is fandangled new stuff but…
does the airyplane company who will be attempting to transport you safely through the air in a big tin can, that really shouldnt be up there, at somewhere in the region of 450mph to 600mph not allow you to text the boarding pass to your carry around with you phone for scanning at the airyport instead of only offerring yon old papery printed stuff. So much easier.

16 roads – Celtic über alles
“1746 was such a long time ago”
———————————————–
14 minutes to six, doesn’t seem that long ago. I remember putting beers in the fridge.;-)
HH.
16 Roads, I wouldn’t waste my time debating with that macjay. Nothing would stop me following Celtic but knowing that a guy like him could claim to be a “fellow Tim” would come close. The Tans burned my City, killed my relatives but hey ho, Cork Gaol is an impressive piece of architecture so I should be grateful. In 50 minutes it will be the 98th Anniversary of the first shots fired in the Easter Rising, my thoughts prayers and gratitude will forever be with the small band of men and women who went out that day and took on the Mighty British Empire.
As down the glen one Easter morn to a city fair rode I
There Armed lines of marching men in squadrons passed me by
No fife did hum nor battle drum did sound it’s dread tatoo
But the Angelus bell o’er the Liffey swell rang out through the foggy dew
Right proudly high over Dublin Town they hung out the flag of war
‘Twas better to die ‘neath an Irish sky than at Sulva or Sud El Bar
And from the plains of Royal Meath strong men came hurrying through
While Britannia’s Huns, with their long range guns sailed in through the foggy dew
‘Twas Britannia bade our Wild Geese go that small nations might be free
But their lonely graves are by Sulva’s waves or the shore of the Great North Sea
Oh, had they died by Pearse’s side or fought with Cathal Brugha
Their names we will keep where the fenians sleep ‘neath the shroud of the foggy dew
But the bravest fell, and the requiem bell rang mournfully and clear
For those who died that Eastertide in the springing of the year
And the world did gaze, in deep amaze, at those fearless men, but few
Who bore the fight that freedom’s light might shine through the foggy dew
Ah, back through the glen I rode again and my heart with grief was sore
For I parted then with valiant men whom I never shall see more
But to and fro in my dreams I go and I’d kneel and pray for you,
For slavery fled, O glorious dead, When you fell in the foggy dew.
