The umbrella group, Fans Against Criminalisation, issued a statement yesterday (kindly published here by Joe O’Rourke on the Association site) which details a number of events in response to Saturday’s policing on Gallowgate, and the resulting response from the SNP government. Witnesses are invited to give evidence on Saturday (23rd March), with three protests planned next month.
To the relief of all, I’m sure, the statement also records that issues surrounding meetings two organisations had with the Club in November have been resolved.
Our Club and supporters groups are led by the kind of people you would trust with your most precious valuables, as many of us do. They each strive in new and innovative ways to herd cats in the right direction, with remarkable success. The tasks, carried out by hundreds of Celtic fans, of running buses, chasing tickets and navigating the impossible political challenges, is often thankless. I know a few who wonder why they bother.
They bother because they care. The office-bearers dedicate even more time looking after the common interests. There are more Celtic heroes than those who wear the hoops.
I hear Fifa president, Sepp Blatter, has appointed Jeffrey Webb, currently head of CONCACAF, as chief of a newly created Fifa body to fight racism in football. Mr Webb is a director of one of the largest banks in the Cayman Islands, known for its…. unique standards of propriety. Nice.
Quick word for Tommy in Glasgow…. brilliant!

BJMac,
Can email CowieBhoys number, get this of the ground and I’m in, in fact if you need help getting it off the ground, I’m in.
Doc & CRC, my next mini break, is touring some distilleries somewhere for 2 of my mates 50th – I’m driving and canny wait – not
CRC, bjmac idea could be your next project ?
Hail Hail
Shameless swine
Re the FAC protest on 6th April,
This is not within the 28 days required for a march (unless previously applied) from the carry-on on Saturday.
But if, and it’s a big if, they have permission to march after the protest at George Square…
Why not march along London Road… it is, after all, a Scottish Football fans protest…
No?
CowieBhoy, touring distilleries, why?
Must be good mates!

I had hoped that you might reflect on the simplistic analogy.
What is the single most effective predictor of literacy levels achieved by young people?
Ill give you a few clues.
It bears no direct relationship to the party in control of local education though there is a link between high educational achievement and the party that those families are likely to vote for.
It bears no direct relationship to the religious persuasion of a school.
It cannot be improved by changing party control or religion.
To assert otherwise is as daft as stating that Labour is voted into power from voters with a disadvantaged background, therefore voting Labour causes poverty. Please don’t tell me you believe that one too.
Cowiebhoy, I’m bottling a cask of Craigellachie later this year as an 11 Y.O.
You want some?

Neil canamalar Lennon hunskelper extrordinaire confides @23:05
“sftb,
I’ve still got a wee bee in my bonnet … ”
Under statement of the blog.
Tell me Neil can’t.
What colour is that wee bee?
If skelping it will help then I’m your mhan. No fee involved.
Listen – I’d be prepared to bet Paul never listened to Tommy’s latest offering. He is a few guys down at his day job and is working flat out. He barely has enough time to get the posts up and doesn’t read the blog as much at the moment due to this – not that he has moaned.
Tommy has done well in all his previous interviews and he has also had Paul on his show and has supported CQN. Paul sticks in a word or two of support and we are suddenly on his case.
It is completely out of order the way the Police acted at the weekend against the Green Brigade. We all know what happened. Who knows about some of the stuff that isn’t discussed so openly – cars getting scratched night after night, CCTV having to get installed – all because someone starts a blog and tells it like it is. Yeah, Paul’s a bad guy for supporting Tommy.
pggtips,
Really not following any of your attempted justifications for the SNP’s sectarian policy of not promoting Catholics.
You are trying to tell us there are no Catholics good enough to be promoted to their cabinet, irrespective of how you dress it up, the premise is a lie, there are plenty good enough, their problem is they are like you ignoring and refuse to accept they are being discriminated against, cognitive dissonance I think it’s called :o)
ACGR, he disnae drink, I on the other hand…….
Yes I do. Contact me, or I’ll get you’re email from P67.
pggtips
If you are arguing at the level of how many catholics would it take, I may have to siphen out some of the complexity from my questions.
You are doing your party no favours here tonight.

Good stuuf, just back. You can get me on the same number, I planned a dry weekend…
Speak soon mate.

Not for the first time, you have failed to understand what canamalar was referring to and have thought that it had something to do with you.
I know what he was referring to. You, obviously do not and I am not going to enlighten you because you’d only use my light to generate more heat.

I missed that but with CL money compensating for any drop in SB sales (and if that is only because of anger at the Board its like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die)it could more than cost in.
It should have nothing to do with the GB, it is either something the support want and something the club should be prepared to deliver as long as the support are willing to meet the cost directly or indirectly.

Haven’t got a clue what it is, I’m a TimTotal, but if its good I will happily buy a bottle – as said I have few good mates who would appreciate this year as special birthdays hit them
Thanks and Hail Hail
CRC – I’m surprised you are still on – have you left her in Belfast ?
anal stools,
Have you donated to the liverpool support fighting fund yet ?
Or are you still blaming them for being victims ?
Were you on duty that day ? Is that why you refuse to accept proven hard facts as evidence ?
sftb @ 23.28
no but labour are delighted that there are people who remain in poverty, the less educated, free-thinking, creative and independently minded the better.
A very good example is the amount of vacant sites left undeveloped for decades. Every single vacant, derelict site is a blight on the imagination of the people who live there, Labour who’ve controlled Glasgow City Council have owned huge sites on the doorstep of the city centre e.g. Collegelands and left the sites vacant for 30+ years.
And what did Glasgow City Council build after leaving the site derelict for 30+ years…
A CAR PARK! Oh and some offices for Council staff.
What a surprise!
Imagination…
Winning Captains, not all are on his case.
I thought my post was more of a backing of both P67 and Tommy, cutting edge is edgy.
Tommy might have made a mistake today, but so did I, one is being kind in my case.think BSR saw the point of that, hopefully others also do.

Evening Bhoys & Ghirls
This Saturday afternoon through to Sunday evening on CQN, we will be delighted to be offering you the chance to win a fantastic and very unique auction prize.
We have been donated a bottle of Bowmore, straight from the cask from a very kind and generous CQNer. The Whisky is 60% and unlike a normal malt whisky, this has not been cut to the normal 40% proof.
I know that a couple of CQNers have already each received a bottle from this cask and can testify to it’s quality and taste. I believe a further CQNer also awaits his bottle. Each time, a very generous donation has been made to the Wee Oscar 4 Life fund.
However, not contend with donating 3 bottles from his share of the cask, we now have his prized possession:
Bottle no 1 of 251
A very special prize in aid of a special wee bhoy

STFB when canamalar leads with analstools then pray tell me to whom he refers?
Do we speak of the canamalar who takes the coin of the king of the desert Kingdom?

Apologies, a bottle for Doc and I – Doc that your birthday sorted

Thanks. Just trying to give some insight.

Dead club accepted that for 5 players, they broke the law, that came out as part of the FTT evidence.
Secondly, the SPL. Independent commission was only for the SPL games, they can’t rule on SFA or LC games. SFA kept out of it due to being the appellate body for either the SPL or the zombies. The appeals time has expired. RFC were found guilty of breaking the rules – it is the punishment which doesn’t match the crime.
The SFA don’t seem to be investigating the rule breaking for the SFA games over the 11 year period.
Legal action could be taken for lost ticket money, season tickets to individual games. There may/could be a separate shareholder action.
There is plenty of guilt and evidence to clearly demonstrate the SFA have been an abject failure in their governance of the game in the past 10 years. The guilt is unquestionable, it is what we can do about it or what we’re willing to do about it, is the question.
You in?

“the less educated, free-thinking, creative and independently minded the better.”
The better educated tend to vote Tory. It has nothing to do with being free-thinking, creative or independent. It is self interest, pure and simple.
I think Alex would want you to stop now
Winning Captains, so was I, you did it well.
CowieBhoy, if you bring it on the bus we’ll get busted.
But Ta.
CRC, a night with a bottle sounds good.

Looks like its only me and en howling at the moon tonight, and that’s only because we’re time travellers.

She is snoozing beside me. Must be my charm
pggtips2- Have you also had a bottle of ACGR’s 59.4% bowmore neat? Looks like a party political broadcast gone wrong :-)
By no means a massive labour supporter, but I cannot blame them for some of the stuff you have posted. We all know that this is down to the GB! :-)

People on here are more concerned about religious quotas than economic development, in fact from what I’ve seen this evening, most people who’ve posted could have been switched with the nutcase loyalist guy I spoke of in the radio 5 discussion from the other side.
All a bit sad really.
Me ? bovver.
ACGR thanks for giving me the benefit of your experience.
I asked “Were you a C&A man?”
“Man at C&A” corrected you.
Thus confirming my suspicions.
