"Have Celtic just won the title?"

Breaking news from Sky Sports according to someone on RM

 

 

 

Could be BS though!!

Could be????? Its definitely pish

Davis should be offered a 5 year extension ASAP. I'm worried about the fact he only has 2 years left on his deal and we are very tardy in offering new ones.

I think if we were in a position to offer long term contracts, Davis and Boyd would have been signed up a long time ago

Is that not Willie Collum on your avatar?

I'm not one to buy into the media conspiracy thing, but in all truth I actually read that piece and while my eyes saw 'they' when talking about 'their' support, my brain read 'we.' I was wondering why he had come out of the closet!

 

I have no objection to sports writers supporting 'them'. Especially if their work is of that standard! However, it's an interesting point, the insult to the intelligence that is the football writing and broadcasting world hereabouts. In a microcosm of diversity that would have Trevor Phillips organising a march in a millisecond, we have supporters of St Mirren (Chick Young and Michelle Evans), Airdrie (James Traynor), Clydebank (Hugh Keevins), Hibs (Pat Nevin), Hearts (Alan Preston), Aberdeen (Richard Gordon), Dundee Utd (Jim Spence), QoS (some woman on Radio Scotland), as well as one or two candidates whose playing history (Murdo MacLeod) or intelligence (Jim Duffy) makes them unashamed to display their green and grey colours. You could go on.

 

There's only one club which remains unrepresented. You may offer the name of Billy Dodds - his mantra, acceptable if unconvincing, is that he follows every team he played for. Hmmmm. You may offer the name of Derek Johnstone, but only if you haven't been listening to Radio Clyde for the past 2 decades.

 

Rangers - the love that dare not speak its name, in the media.

 

Grow up and grow a set, you broadcasting types! No-one - not a single person - in this country is fooled for a moment by the idea that sportsdesks up and down the country are staffed with a deliberately wide range of affiliated staff. The most ignorant listener or reader is well aware that support for a minor county is a mere smokescreen for OF loyalty, hidden in order to advance career or avoid criticism. Understandable, I for one wouldn't want to suffer abuse in the street simply for expressing my opinion on the football. But then, I never chose a career covering Scottish football - were I to do so in the future, I'd be well aware of what it entails! I would not, however, chose to combat ignorance by lying.

Excellent point. Even on Sky and ESPN the co-commentators are Scott Booth, Craig Burley, Andy Walker and Davie Provan. Ian Crocker seems to have something against us as well.

Hugh Keevins supporting Clydebank? Keevins is a Celtic fan, I thought this was common knowledge

Could Kean not do that? Does Kean not score more goals?

Keane has been out of form this year. He isn't a first pick any more

Brilliant!

What was the song about Barry Robson? Couldn't make it out

Tough one as there were no real standouts.

 

I think I'll go for McCulloch even though he nearly gave them a goal with his slip.

Went for McCulloch too. Battled away all night. Davis played well but faded when moved wide

arghhhhhhhhhhh forgot to put my scores in

EDIT: phew, it still let me do it :spl:

You might be right, 3-2 Algeria in extra time

Good news. Hopefully Beasley gets back to his December form

 

They spotted that quickly.

 

Here's what I saw originally:

 

Fucking hell, that must have been some paper round

Sock-sucker isn't how I'd describe Gary Neville, sounds like it though

It's Stirling Albion Meerkats now folks, do keep up.

Simples!!!

The Sun have a story saying he's in signing talks with Villa. No quotes though.

He's definitely down there talking to them. No reports yet if its a deal now or a pre-contract

Just 9 1st team players took part in full training today, times are tough!

4-1

Miller 2, Novo, Lafferty

Frankie, can you photoshop a can of Tennents on the shirt where the red T is situated in image you posted above.

Aye, one of the classic cans with the bird on it!

0-1

1-2 (Miller and Papac) Don't know why I said Papac, think it'll be one of those ugly games where we'll grind out the three points by playing average.

This is very optimistic seeing as Miller is suspended

The so-called "New Firm" are on next week.

71/72? 92/93? 96/97?

Why was this advertised as the league showdown? Its all about them

Britney just referred to Celtic as "us" and Jim Kerr referred to Sevulll as being like Mecca

Jesus wept

Is that the online equivalent of a red rag?

:fish:
