Yet again during 2013 we asked you to put your hand in your pocket and you responded as only Celtic fans do. You raised £6000 before and during the focus of our summer fundraising activity, the annual golf day. £4500 of this went towards the 1254125 Appeal, which during the year did an enormous amount to anchor the club and support right back to where we came from. Clic Sargent, who help children with cancer, also benefited at that time.
Thanks also to those who sponsored my 10k at the Great Scottish Run in October to the tune of £1552. Times remain tight for many, so I the value of your support.
Perhaps the biggest response all year came from the commitment we made to Mary’s Meals to build and kit a kitchen at the Kholoni Primary School in Malawi. 1200 kids are registered at the school but there are no catering facilities, so students go hungry, or simply don’t go to school at all. Pablophanque’s family sent on the £4500 support they received in 2011 to the appeal, while 470 people booked a seat at the CQteN St Patrick’s Day dinner, with more on the waiting list. The work we’ll achieve in 2014 will be incredible.
This place can stress and annoy sometimes but it has become a great window into the soul of the Celtic support.
Have a great Christmas and thank you for all your support.

I was raised in penilee .. went to school with the mcguiness family.
Years later Danny started with us in engineering. . Mentioned he had cousins in penilee.
The rest is history
He lived with me at one point and we have been on our travels together with work and holiday.
Was with him in the piggy earlier this year

Team sheet latest……………………………….Wee Jamesie
If Celtic win by five goals or more today, will we have beaten ‘a youthful St Johnstone team’?
it won’t matter how many we win by today ( if we win of course)
the focus will be what flags and banners are displayed (c wot a dun there)

Yer man Johansson was en route to Dubai via Glasgow apparently.
Cheeky of him.
Some amount of taxpayers money to catch a Celtic fan with a bottle of beer.

Wren stuff.
Remember seeing a documentary( on Italian tele ) re a wren hunt in Carcassone ( memory says it was a traditional winter event ).. Bird was caught and kept in captivity.It was then released and local youths competed to catch it. Guy who caught it was given a “title ” and a number of privileges for the next year..
There are a number of English folk choons re wrens and wren hunting . Not my bag but DBBIA might know more.
Celtic failed to win at Perth, in both visits last season.
ma da was in the royal navy during the war, am bettin he done a power of wren hunting, lol
My one to avoid today is WESTERN WARHORSE in the 125,Kempton

Strange that no-one seems to mind West Indians celebrating their African heritage,but we are condemned for celebrating our Irish roots.

Any good cowbhoy pictures on today?
Hull 2 Man u 0 13mins
2 nil hull after 13 mins
Apparently Hull scored their first goal from a corner that was wrongly awarded. I presume this will now be replayed every week for the next year – or does that only happen on the rare occasion where we get a decision in our favour?
I think I’ll have a wee swally today, on antibiotics and not had a Christmas drink yet…….
