Your Celtic Foundation and the fuel crisis

521
By on CQN BLOG & Comments

Your Foundation has today committed £400k to help those in fuel crisis in Scotland.  £49 fuel vouchers will go to around 6,200 households, reaching 17,000 people.  A further 500 people will receive a winter care pack worth £100.

None of us really know what the world is in for this winter, but fuel bills have pushed so many on low or no incomes over the brink.  Families are choosing between heating and food, and forgoing the use of things life stairlifts for the disabled in an effort to hold their lives together.

Everyone who has put money in a Celtic FC Foundation bucket collection, bought a badge or contributed in any way, should be very proud of what they have achieved here.  Winter always brings a surge in demand for the Foundation’s work.  This project, in partnership with the Fuel Bank Foundation, is only a part of what will be done in your name in the months ahead.

What started in 1888 remains a very live and active part of being Celtic.  Well done to all.

    Bhoys what a day in company of greeeeeat Celtic bhoys.

     

     

    Very humbling.

     

     

    If anyone has any issues with any of the bhoys I will gladly meet and have a chat.

     

     

    Alas there are cowards in every walk of life.

     

     

    I am an ordinary working man with generations of Irish/Celt in my my DNA and everyone striving to give a better life to their family.

     

     

    I have never set out to upset anyone in my life, but yes I have made tough decisions but I cannot comprehend why 1 would choose to be so argumentative to a fellow human being let alone 1 of your own.

     

     

    Having said all that I am still happy to meet the mad buffter bhoy, mad bitch, looser 1888 etc

     

     

    Any time anywhere

     

     

    God bless all poor souls.

    I have dealt with the fuel bank over the last few years having to deal with people during Covid who had never previously required assistance due to the lack of furlough etc

     

    The Scottish Government assisted and it was up to me to determine someones eligibility to the award.

     

    Previously it was only for people on pre payment metres.

     

    MM has a point as greed it the reason people are in fuel poverty. Low wages, the removal of tax credits ( which I was against ) and the demonization of the poor and infirm by the elite and those of us working class who for whatever reason have became Tory

     

    Voters

    Blantyre tim whit ?

     

     

    I have never voted Tory in my life or become Tory….naw that’s wrong.

     

     

    I also help out in the north of glasgow food banks, employment and generally help wherever I can. Just this week 2 employees came to me and said it does not pay them to work anymore 1 a tradesman. Dont thi k they voted Tory.

     

     

    So I think that is bullshit.

     

     

    I know the young want get rich quick but by god that is some statement.

     

     

    D :)

    David

     

    Sorry if you misread the post, it was a generalisation of people from working class families like us forgetting our roots and citing Tory

    My wife has just said to me “I can’t believe you’ve been drinking all day and your still up!”

     

     

    So, away to my bed!

     

     

    Have a great weekend!

  41. David66 on

    BT – I am forever misreading stuff, not the sharpest tool in the shed ” n ” all that.

     

     

    But I would never and have never voted Tory.

     

     

    I had a wellbeing teams meeting this morning and a question was how do feel about the pandemic, I raised the point that we are in another pandemic (cost of living crisis) and it’s ok for social housing staff (inc me) on good salaries but I raised the issue of our Glasgow living wage employees and how the cost of living crisis is impacting them, it’s sad, so sad that people are working 4o hours hard toil but people that could not give a jot are better off financially than someone working.

     

     

    But again I bet no one in my organization voted Tory.

    Well done to all indeed Paul.

     

     

    I can’t recall a club’s charitable arm making a donation of this size before.

     

     

    BSR @ 08:45pm – their piece started with O** F*** images.

     

     

    The uglies in the forefront of course.

     

     

    The report then went on to emphasise all clubs are doing … we … summat.

     

     

    Cue an image of club crests and badges.

     

     

    Celtic’s up in the corner. You know who’s nearer the middle.

     

     

    No doubt the phone call to Mark Hateful to come and collect a bottle of hand wash for delivery to a care home is imminent.
