Always look on the Meh side of life
What did the Charles Dickens CSC say again : “Twas The Best of Times, Twas The Mehh of Times”
Ahead of AGM, some thoughts of the state of play came to my head….please add your own to comments below…no doubt plenty of the joys that I will have missed..and I’m sure there’s maybe few “Worst of Times” too..

“The whole difference between construction and creation is exactly this: that a thing constructed can only be loved after it is constructed; but a thing created is loved before it exists. “

Celtic Fc was created out of genuine need.
Celtic Plc was constructed to maximise Celtics potential..

BAH HUMBUG – Charles Dickens
Desi just about touched all the bases though Alex McLeish must be laughing a bit today. See Eck, see what Celtic does for Scotland, does it for us every week, that’s what it’s like to be. Elric. The “ Best of times and er,….,,,..,the best of times.”
“Please peter can I have some more signings please”
Iancelt67…nope…ye can have gruel like the rest of us downtrodden
Should have called it Bleak House!
Desi Mond…it cant be called that… Rankers have the copyright
Oops “That’s what it’s like to be Celtic.”
In pondering the question of where the pluses outnumber the minus, I am struck by the fact that the negatives are more long term in nature, and hence of more importance.

Rebus… Go easy with those negative waves… 🙂
Weered,
I have read too many Celtic blogs!
Have to say the big mealie pudden that came out of the sky this season was Ryan Christie. Really impressed with him, and we could so easily have let him go!

Desi those lists both look pretty sound to me and sum up the joys and frustrations of supporting Celtic—for a lifetime.
Although there was much to admire in Dickens writing, he was one of the great all-time Catholic haters and wrote a lot of anti-Catholic bile. Some of his anti-Catholic stuff makes the Huns look mild.
Devoy,
He also abused his wife.
However, I like the historical references on blogs.

Not as of the Catholic Church has ever done anything to leave itself wide open for criticism though is it?
Or the british army or their royal family & the Church of England & Scotland, where there are more recorded incidents of abuse than there was in the Catholic church.
Not to mention what the Butler saw at Balmoral..
Well I’ve got great expectations for this squad.
