Zaluska assault

808

I didn’t realise until this morning that the assault on Lukasz Zaluska’s assault by two premiership footballers was so serious as to have the player lying unconscious on the ground for several minutes.  The Celtic player was out in Glasgow with his wife Sunday night before the incident.

Lukasz was singled-out for online abuse by two Dundee United players in August, one from Poland, one Scottish-born player who has represented Northern Ireland, after the Legia Warsaw Champions League qualifier.  The Polish player subsequently took to Twitter to campaign for Legia’s punishment for fielding a suspended player against Celtic to be reduced.

The stories I could tell about various footballers would fill more than a few volumes, but all of the tales I’ve heard about Lukasz are that he is a polite, generous, player who repeatedly puts himself out to help Celtic fans and Poles living here.  Very best wishes to the big guy, I hope we see him back soon.

If you fancy watching Sunday’s game against Kilmarnock in comfort……..  We have secured another pair of Premium Seat tickets for the Jock Stein Stand from Celtic sponsor Magners.  To win the tickets answer the following question:

    With good reason.

     

     

    But when we’re back where we belong (well, maybe not this year), your normal enthusiasm will no doubt return.

     

     

    I know they’re on a different level financially, but watching Chelsea so easily dismiss Maribor, without their first choice striker, and then losing his replacement to injury early in the game, was a bit depressing.

    What’s the scoop ??

    My daughter told me earlier that I am an eternal optimist, especially concerning Celtic. I told her that is why she and her children are Tims. She wholeheartedly agreed. :)))

    Just saw that front page on another forum. Utterly disgraceful. They shouldn’t be allowed near the park nor the training centre.

  5. Delaneys Dunky

     

     

    Well, no doubt there were optimistic Tims who would have been mocked for being so back in the early ’60s.

     

     

    And they had the last laugh, eh?

  6. estorilbhoy-a picture of LZ at training, bruises and all, with a couple of cheap ‘comedy’ headlines, disgusting .The man was knocked unconscious in the street, and these fuds think it’s funny.Ban them Lawwell.

  7. Stephen Patrick Morrissey is correct.

     

    The Parasitical Duke and Duch of Cambridge, are indeed thick as shecht.

  8. I know I’m getting old and carnaptious and starting to sound like my auld faither but Jock Stein would have had their guts for garters AND they would have paid attention. He’d have hunted them. Scum!

  9. Beatbhoy

     

     

    Aye, ma da and ma uncles, who took me and my cousins to the games, were early 60s optimists, still basking in the sun fae Hampden ’57. :)

    Cheers Bada. Don’t give it oxygen and it will die. ( currently on life support )

    What do you expect from a comic with less credibility than The Dandy?

     

    Ignore them and they die. Like their team fae doomdome.

    The SMSM are a disgrace to journalism.

     

    Same as it ever was.

     

    We don’t need them, and we certainly don’t want them.

     

    Celtic Football Club should hunt the lot of them out the door.

    We live in hope that we outlive this current impotent mob of brown brogue accountants and incompetents who run our club.

    what a chance for the Celtic board to get the Support

     

    onside for once after that disgraceful headline, show

     

    some balls and ban them now Mr Lawell.

    I’ll bet the board do nothing, as they did with “Thieves and What”

     

    But, I spent many a happy hour in the Melbourne Cfc Supporters club a few years ago. My No 1 son Lives in Warragul, which is easier to spell than his previous abode in Nulmboy ( Zero for spelling?)

  16. Melbourne Mick on

    the unthank road

     

    I know Warragul well it’s about 40 k’s from us in Beaconsfield

     

    took the grandson though to play for his team and the coach

     

    was a Scot. never managed to talk to him, wasn’t him was it?

     

    As regards the board never felt so disconnected as now even

     

    going back to the White and Kelly days if they have any sense

     

    at all they will act now.

    Trivialising a serious assault that is still subject to police investigation.

     

     

    The same rag which did the opposite when the Huns bus went on fire.

    They play to their bitter pensioner hun readership. Why any Celtic supporter buys it, astounds me.

  19. Melbourne Mick on

    bmcw

     

    Exactly, and if they don’t act now the support will see it

     

    as another betrayal and i fear their will be an unhealable

     

    split forever.

    Hi M Mick

     

    Doubt it was my son, although he played a very good standard of footie, including playing for the English army. OMG!

     

    I think he’s “Geelong”? fan. Much as I send my three grandchildren the hoops tops, I think it is a lost cause. C’est la vie, n’est ce pas? Visited lots of outstanding wineries, that’s a vinyard to you purists out there! I think you guys have a great standard of life out there so just enjoy. If we ever meet I’ll tell you a great story of an altercation at “Cheers” in Sydney

    Just found that virus flash player update.

     

     

    All over my desktops in Swindon and Oxford when I log onto CQN.

     

     

    Fortunately not on my Apple stuff. Yet.

     

     

    Re the record front page-am I right in saying that when McGregor got done,they printed pictures of him in a sorry state,expressing their disgust and anger that someone could do such a thing to a man because of the team he played for?

     

     

    (An admirable sentiment,btw. Hilariously wrong,as it turned out!)
