When asked if the £33m he claimed to have lodged for the purchase of Rangers, was “Your own money from your own personal wealth?” in today’s Scotland on Sunday (SoS), Craig Whyte told the newspaper, “Yes, that was done as far back as November 2010.” Perhaps not the most useful information to put into the public domain during divorce proceedings.
I think every single one of you who referred to Craig Whyte as a billionaire, or the cheeky “MBB” (Motherwell born billionaire) owes him an apology. While Hero Whyte didn’t deny he was a billionaire he told SoS he doesn’t “talk about [his]personal wealth to anybody” and that those of you who make continual references to his considerably wealth are “making [him]look silly”.
Let’s be clear, this man does not need you to make him look silly. Please desist and apologise.

What a fantastic weekend folks.
I’ve witnessed some right bad Hun teams through the years but today was truly shocking.
Usually I would feel uneasy even with Dun.Utd 2 up but never felt that way today.They were truly awful and long may it continue.
On now to Tynecastle on Wednesday and a big danger stands in our midst-Collum.
How that thug Bartley remained on the field amazed me.
montreal_bhoy, naw that was the wifes auntie Tish who stayed down in Fenian alley, Kitty stayed up the hill.
talk later mate good luck wae the 4 ft of snow.

Snake Plissken
Was that after plg was sacked?
He and fplg must have some combined cup winning mentality.
Larsson…. That. Is. Sensational!!!!
you’ve got to try this Brandy an Blackcurrant ice cream – might re-make it for “the day”. Recipe is simple, you get ornery ice-cream and add a dash of Ribena. Pour a half-pint of brandy.
Put the ice-cream in the fridge and drink the brandy.
It improves with age, just repeat.
Very surprised with Rooney’s Man of the Match.
Are they forgetting Howard Webb?
Celtic men and women have really shown their humour, irony, sarcasm and razor sharp wit this weekend.
Lots of good songs, Billy Joel and Don McLean’s classics have been bastardised to a hilarious degree.
However, I am waiting for someone better than me to take it on another level

Can anyone dub this magnificent little link with Andrea and Swally?
Could be comedy gold….RFC, time to say goodbye

Huns just starting on ITV
Penalties Gabon v Mali.
Someone posted a link a little earlier to the BBC interviewing the orcs leaving the game and what struck me was the fact that they all seemed to expect “Mr Whyte, HMRC or somebody” to sort it out. Really encapsulates the difference between us and them. When we faced a similar threat Celtic supporters got organised and started campaigning for change. They on the other hand sit with their hands out expecting someone else to do the work for them, this sense of entitlement baffles me.

Re Nevin
Only my opinion, but I am sure I remember Nevin on a pay TV channel , earlier this season in a match involving Rankers and he seemed to be more reticent to voice his opinions on fans and their singing.
Maybe I am mistaken
Maybe I am a cynic
Maybe he didn’t hear any offensive songs
Or maybe he knew that if he slagged off fans on a commercial PPV channel then fans would complain and vote with their wallets. Surely he wasn’t worried about not getting invited back and the money earner drying up.
Of course, he needn’t have worried as they got knocked out.
in 1983 when DUfc was winning the league this what the huns drew at the bigotdome, expect the same attendances:
14 May 1983 Celtic H 2–4 40,500 Clark (2)
08 Jan 1983 Dundee United H 2–1 15,500 Prytz, Kennedy
15 Jan 1983 Kilmarnock H 1–1 11,223 MacDonald
05 Feb 1983 Dundee H 1–1 8,500 McPherson
05 Mar 1983 Hibernian H 1–1 10,975 Dalziel
19 Mar 1983 Motherwell H 1–0 18,000 McClelland
09 Apr 1983 Aberdeen H 2–1 19,800 Redford, Bett
23 Apr 1983 Greenock Morton H 2–0 9,500 MacDonald, Redford
30 Apr 1983 St. Mirren H 4–0 9,321 Bett (2), MacDonald, Clark
14 May 1983 Celtic H 2–4 40,500 Clark (2)
I was at the last game two freak goals at HT then we ran riot………………..4:2 nice tune to it:)
Tricoloured Ribbon,
I kept waiting for them to do something in the second half, but it didn’t happen. Did the Dundee United keeper have to make a save in the second half?
And they didn’t once get into the box to give Collum the chance to award a penalty!
vale Bhoy
Aye that was the game.
he is the only Rangers manager with a 100% record – played 1 lost 1
Ah,hell. I knew this would happen. Getting flashbacks to my early teens,standing in the CELTIC END. Standing in the enclosure when we got beat 3-1,we JRP Gordon doing us up wi a penalty at one end,the players refusing to kick-off,and fans trying to invade the pitch.
Shouldnae focus on anything to do wi that lot,bad for my mental wellbeing.
Just in time for a few nightmares before my nightshift,smashing…..
Have I missed something.
Haven’t seen a green and white decorated trophy yet.

One of my favourite games,huns giving it laldy
till 2nd half kicked off.Blew them away.
If you go down to Ibrox your sure of a big surprise.
If you go down to Ibrox today you’ll never believe your eyes.
Because super Ally has no cash.
Soon no place to sing the sash.
Todays the day the Teddy Bears have their pitch nicked…
Keep the Faith!
Hail Hail!
Just stumbled across this.
The funniest thing I’ve seen in ages…
Hun man
Lubo.
Yer right Philboy,I hate when that wee scrote is refereeing either a Celtic or Hun game.
The awarding of the so called pen against us at Celtic Pk last season said it all.
The wee Catholic who crawls on his belly to keep in with his SFA superiors.Sickening.
Pat Nevins father will be turning in his grave, as Mr nevin attended all celtic games ,well at parkhead anyway not too sure about away games !
mini-bus
Was in Aldi this afternoon and they had none of this Schadenfreude everyone else seems to be enjoying.
What’s it taste like and what %proof is it?
;-)

In over sixty years of supporting Celtic, I have seen many a bus just missed.
As an old political acquaintance of mine was fond of saying. It’s never in the bag until it is in the box.
Late, late into this turbulent night them beggars of long doffed word praise the cheeky bantered one his steely resolve, in confluent copy defence the four times cup flouncer will be honing their collective ire in knives sharp Monday morning sub headlines and deadly threats in the direction of only one of certain *Old *Firm managers…and it aint their fat friend Sally.
Jabba is the fat controller; Gaunt of the Herald et al, his ragdoll gimp followers.
Jabba and Tom Anguish are uniquely menancing and word plague influencers the resultant happy packed hun hacks their hitched wagon lit of ‘Fleeing Scotsmen’ towards a wilfully terminal and sonorous destination.
feck them, an eternity of hubris awaits.
