    Lafferty

    I know a lot of fans don't rate him,but has he done enough to win over these fans who don't rate him?. I have always liked him as his work rate and determination is never in question.He has shown he should play as one of two strikers,Jelavic is an inteligent footballer who seems to bring the best out in him,along with Davis & Naismith. He can still improve his game and I do agree he is frustrating,also his price tag means he is targeted a lot. Should he be one player Ally keeps or should he be sold if an offer comes in for him?. I'd keep him. Thoughts?
  3. There was more medals than players:grin:
  4. Mad Joe Let’s first of all get one thing out of the road, we lost this league title ourselves; no matter the influence of certain people in Scottish Football; it was still ours to win until we went to Inverness and lost 3-2; so we have to shoulder the responsibility for failing to win the league title. But it has to be said that people outside Celtic FC did have considerable influence on the result of where the league title would end up. People like the Dallas clone Willie Collum; in my opinion he should receive a medal along with the players of Glasgow Rangers; I don’t have to go through all his input; you know it as well as me: but the phantom penalty that he gave without seeing the incident at Celtic Park, and his display at Hamilton spring to mind; and that was just in our games; when Collum was involved there was always controversy. What about the ruling bodies within Scottish Football? They certainly have not covered themselves in glory. They failed to support us at every opportunity from the lies of Dougie Mc Donald; right through to the cowardly attack on Lenny at the wee Bigot-Dome. All through the disgraceful threats and attacks on Neil Lennon their silence has been deafening; the only time they commented was when prompted by one of the corrupt media outlets. The SFA and SPL are an absolute disgrace; and the clubs within Scottish Football are just as bad; because they determine what happens in the game here; they are the same clubs who have profited from the masonic ridden committees that govern our game in Scotland; will they change in the summer? I have serious doubts about that; I believe that decision needs to be taken out of their hands by us the Celtic Support who keep them in business. People like Michael Johnson chairman of Kilmarnock who decided to turn Rugby Park into Ibrox yesterday; now you couldn’t blame a chairman for trying to cash in; but I believe this is the same guy who refused to sell extra tickets to the Celtic support when we won the league down there; then again they would all be singing the same songs yesterday. And this is the same guy who sat on the disciplinary committees who; firstly gave Lenny an excessive sentence; which was overturned on appeal; he also sat on the committee which exonerated Sneaky Sally when he tried to intimidate Neil at Celtic Park in the same incident. And surprise surprise; he sat on the committee which gave a slap on the wrist to another proven bigot Craig Brown; who actually did assault the Chairman of Motherwell; his second physical assault of the season but no ban. Let me say this quite clearly, and this is my PERSONAL OPINION; it has not been discussed by our Branches yet; but I will do all in my power to show these people what fan power really means; and there will be very few clubs in Scotland who will not be on my radar. Neil Lennon said in his brilliantly inspiring speech to the faithful yesterday that some people within Scottish Football need to look at themselves in the mirror; there are also people outside of football that need to do the same. The Scottish Government for instance had very little to say until one of First Minister Alex Salmond fellow Jambos decided to try and attack Lenny on the side of the pitch; he was lucky the police moved quickly enough to stop him getting a kicking from Lenny and Thommo; they weren’t as quick when the guy managed to vault a wall and run twenty yards to get at him in the first place. Maybe the biggest contributor to the farce that is Scottish Football is the media. Maybe they should be taken to task for some of the absolute nonsense that they print. Now we all know how the media works; they try and sell more papers than their rivals; or get more TV viewers or more radio listeners than their rivals; to do that they don’t print or say what is the truth; but what most people in this wee bigoted country wants to hear; and to think these are the people who call the “Celtic View” Pravda. I had the pleasure of attending the 63rd Celtic Rally on Friday night in the fantastic Kerrydale Suite at Celtic Park. I had asked the Chairman John Reid to say a few words; he duly obliged; and delivered the best speech I have ever heard from a Celtic Chairman. He spoke of the strength of our Manager having to work under unprecedented pressure from the media, officialdom and extremist. In particular the media have treated Lenny disgracefully; who; contrary to what they write and say is the victim in all this; they talk of how Lenny incites people to act in that manner; and I personally would include ex-Celtic players in this. The Chairman rightly asks; what have Trish Godman or Paul Mc Bride done to incite people? I think the answer to that is obvious; they are Celtic supporting Roman Catholics of Irish heritage, and they don’t deny it. The Chairman stated that we are a Scottish Club of Irish heritage; and if people don’t like that then they’ll have to change; because we won’t be changing; we are not going to lie down; and we are not going anywhere; that is probably the only part I would have disagreed with; I would love to play our football in some other country that is not infested with bigots; and leave the club that is Scotland’s Shame to carry on here. The Chairman rightly received a standing ovation after his address to the enthralled assembly of Celtic fans; he spent the rest of the evening signing autographs and posing for pictures with Peter Lawwell; many thanks to both of them for their contribution to a great night. The night itself proved to be a great success, the beneficiaries are the Good Child Foundation; and once we have finalised everything we hope to be able to donate about Ã?£7,000 in memory of young Reamonn Gormley. We had the honour of having Reamonn’s parents Jim and Ann at the event; we had great pleasure in presenting them with a painting of Reamonn with some of the Thai Tims which was painted by the very popular artist George Smith. The Association also presented our Player of the Year Emilio Izaguirre; and Guest of Honour; Tom Boyd with a painting from the same artist; needless to say both were very popular; Emilio managed to say a thank you in English; and Tom as always treated us to a couple of songs accompanied by Trisha Fearns and the Green Velvet Band. I would like to thank some people who sponsored the Rally, Semple Travel, Joe Rocks from the Wee Man’s pub on the Gallowgate, the Grampian Emerald CSC, the Artto Hotel and Bombay Blues Restaurant in Hope ST, Glasgow, and Celtic’s shirt sponsor Tennents. I would also like to thank the Celtic Boy’s Club for selling the programmes, along with the other volunteers who helped on the night. There are still some programmes for sale at the cost of Ã?£2, all proceeds to the GCF. Finally, please have a look at the video which is linked below, it’s a special on of the Thai Tims for their release of Just Can’t get Enough; need something to cheer me up today. We are All Neil Lennon. http://www.celticsupporterassoc.co.uk/showthread.php?t=901&p=4433#post4433
