Not To Miss Out On A Celebration, Is He Buying An Ice Cream Van?

The start of tonight’s Reporting Scotland on the BBC centred on more revelations about Rangers owner Craig Whyte.

Reporter Mark Daly, the same guy who presented the last programme about Whyte’s shenanigans, is again the man to uncover more inconsistencies about the ‘billionaire’ owner.

The contents of his last investigation led to Whyte threatening to sue the BBC, a threat like many others he never carried out. He has though ‘barred’ any of his employees at Poundland from speaking to the BBC.

Which is quite ironic when you consider he’ll take the money from the corporation, tax payers money,  for showing yesterday’s defeat against Dundee United live!

The new ‘evidence’ against Whyte will be shown in full on the BBC’s Newsnight Scotland programme tonight at 11.00pm.

In the meantime there is no truth in the rumour that Craig Whyte is about to invest in an ice cream van so he won’t miss out on any end of season celebrations!

Another Away Day…

Celtic have been drawn away from home again in the Scottish Cup, this time we’ve a trip to Rankers’ conquerors Dundee United .

The ties have to be played on the weekend of 10/11th March.

No doubt the Celtic game will be televised, as it’s easily the tie of the round.

There are other ties, but who cares about them?

BTW it was two former Bluenoses that made the draw….couldn’t gone better for them! (Campbell Ogilvie and Billy Davies)

Is It…….?

If Carslberg did Monday’s……

Just a wee reminder to our ‘friends’ over Govan way, in case they’ve forgot already!

You, Craig Whyte, can I have a word?

McCoist Sets Record Over At Ibrox…..

At the start of this season the Govan Mob were more than confident that under new manager Ally McCoist they’d do ‘four-in-a-row’.

Little did they know back then that their team would accomplish that feat in the first week of February.

Amazing!

Today Scotlands Shame completed a remarkable fourth exit from cup competition with a 2-0 defeat at home to Dundee United in the William Hill Scottish Cup.

The loss follows on from being dumped out of the Champions League and Europa League by European giants Malmo and Maribor, and the League Cup by First Division Falkirk.

Shockerooney!

No doubt the media will role out the ‘poor Ally’  headlines just to keep favour with the former ‘cheeky chappie’.

Hehehehehehehe!

BTW, why were the BBC showing the game today when the Ibrox hierarchy have banned their staff from talking to them? Another misuse of tax payers money!

Oh aye, before I forget, that Mervan guy looks NOTHING like a Celik player!

To The Tune Of The Teddy Bears Picnic!

If you go down to Ibrox today, your’re sure of a big surprise,

If you go down to Ibrox today, you’ll never believe your eyes.

‘Cause Super Ally has no cash, soon no place to sing the Sash,

Today’s the day the Teddy Bears have their pitch nicked!

Sammy And Broonie On Target For Celtic…

A super Sammy strike and a penalty from captain Scott Brown were enough to take holder Celtic into the quarter finals of the Scottish Cup in Inverness today.

Lenny chose to shuffle the pack a bit with Kelvin Wilson partnering Thomas Rogne in the middle of defence, moving Charlie Mulgrew to left back and Adam Matthews returning at right back at the expense of Cha.

Also missing from the starting line up was Anthony Stokes, who dropped to the bench, Lenny favouring Sammy up front with Gary Hooper.

And that change in selection worked for the manager. With the game in a stalemate around the half hour mark, Georgios Samaras latched on to a Ross Tokely mistake to fire an unstoppable swerving shot from 16 yards to put the Bhoys 1-0 up.

The goal was no more than Celtic deserved having dominated most of the possession up to that point and seemed to settle the Hoops, although ICT very rarely threatened.

Although Celtic didn’t add to there lead until the second half, the Bhoys were never in danger.

And the game was put beyond doubt when man of the match Gary Hooper robbed ICT’s Procter on the touchline only to be scythed down by the defender for a stonewall penalty.

Up stepped Scott Brown to score his third goal in as many matches and and take the Celts safely into the next round.

As the game petered out, Sammy Hoops both missed chance3 to make the score a bit more convincing. Still, a victory over Terry Butcher and his men is always nice and made even sweeter with the way the game went.

Well done Celtic and well deserved!

And The Media Don’t Like It!

At yesterday’s press conference Neil Lennon did what he does best…..tell the truth!

On the back of The Sun running a story about his assistant, and former team mate, Alan Thompson frequenting the same pub in Glasgow as the Dark Side’s Allan McGregor, Lenny let rip.

Having been a victim of sectarian abuse, in fact he still is, Neil let the media know that  THEY are as much to blame for stoking the fires of the religious bigotry as anyone.

On the one hand they tell us that this is wrong and that’s wrong, then they print a non-story to try and antagonise both sets of fans. Talk about hypocrites!

They then tried to get the Celtic manager to tow the party line and join the ‘poor Rangers’ campaign. The ‘Scottish football needs a strong Rangers’ bandwagon, you know the one I mean, the one that’s angling to let the Govan Mob off with breaking the law and evading taxes.

Well, they needn’t have bothered, because Lenny, as always, told it how he sees it.

Asked if he feels sorry for the mess the noisy neighbours in, Neil replied “No”. He then went on to tell a few home truths, and in doing so gave the media all the ammunition they need to write more sensational headlines.

What these people tend to forget is THEY need the manager of Celtic to do press conferences, THEY need Celtic more than Celtic need them, especially with the advent of current social media platforms.

And if they keep pissing off the sources of their work, then eventually they suffer the same fate as a certain team from Glasgow’s South side…….

Couldn’t come soon enough!
