Celtic Diary Wednesday August 11: That Old Familiar Feeling

Every now and then, someone at the club comes up with an idea that slips through the net and , well, for want of a better word, makes you proud.

And this is certainly one of their better ideas ( following up on a suggestion from Paul Gallagher on Twitter)

 

Celtic Football Club
@CelticFC
 While we welcome our fans back and celebrate your return after such a long time away, the Club wanted to take time to remember those fans we have lost. 

…..before kick-off, there will be a moment to pause and applaud to remember all those we have lost over the course of the Covid pandemic.

We are delighted to be looking forward to hosting a full house at Celtic Park on Thursday for the first time in such a long time.

While we do so and all strive again for some form of normality, it is important to recognise that the current pandemic has changed the lives of so many of us in so many ways.
Indeed, from speaking to our fans, we know that tragically, a number of supporters will not return to Celtic Park as they have lost their lives to Covid-19.

In fact, during the long enforced absence from Celtic Park, so many fans have passed away for other reasons too and not had the chance to see their beloved Celtic Park again.
So while we welcome our fans back and celebrate your return after such a long time away, the Club wanted to take time to remember those fans we have lost.
We will all take a moment – Club Management, players, staff, supporters, officials – pause and applaud and, of course, remember all those who we have lost, but who we have loved so dearly.

Our opponents, FK Jablonec, will also take part in the applause and we will, of course, all take a moment to think about those in the Czech Republic and all other countries affected by the pandemic.
We thank our fans for their continued support and look forward to welcoming you back to Celtic Park on Thursday evening.

 It’s a wonderful idea. There isn’t a single one of us who hasn’t looked over at a seat and thought of someone who no longer sits there, we’ve all lost friends and family over the years who once sat among us, and the last eighteen months or so have seen more and more, who either because they have passed or are now too ill to attend, won’t be there on what is sure to be an emotional occasion.

 

 This one is for them.

 

 There was talk yesterday that Gordon Strachan will be returning to the club in some capacity, as Celtic have fallen below the required amount of Strachans at the club according to UEFA rules.

 

 However, Dominic McKay put that one to bed a while ago…..

 

Image
 So I’m sure he wouldn’t have gone back on his word. Celtic are no longer a club that takes one step forward and then two back.

 

 Progressive forward looking…that’s what he said, right ?

 

 

 Anyway, back to Thursday, and there’s an added bonus to the welcome return …so maybe the board and new CEO do care about us….the concourse and all it’s kiosks will be open, and it appears everything will be free !

Hi I’m Dick Winchester and I thought we’d have a look at the South African countryside as Dave King sees it.

No one sees the world quite like Dave King …

He said Celtic would collapse like a pack of cards not realising that packs of cards cannot collapse as they’re self supporting and he also considered having to pay 84 million quid in fines and losing all his cars, helicopters & yacht to the taxman ‘a favourable verdict’.

Though compared to 84 years in jail, I suppose it was.

Who among the Celtic support doesn’t have a soft spot for ol’ Squint Eastwood?

His ‘Bringing the Oldco out of liquidation‘ still has me laughing my face off yet.

And just wait till he ringfences his 10 million off Sevco …

They really are the gift that just keeps giving, even now, all these years down the line.

A week is a long time in football and, oh my, what a week! Last season we played like them and they played like us but it seems things have reverted to how they were. Now I won’t have to watch through splayed fingers as Ange, our favourite grumpy Uncle, looks like he has enthused the team and support with high energy fitbaw that should get better as we go. We just need a few more in and…chocks away. Welcome back Bhoys!

The SFA has denied accusations that refs in Scotland lean towards the Ibrokes side but couldn’t deny they do sometimes get tangled in their aprons which can lead to honest mistakes.

The new Swedish noir, better than “The Killing”, its called GIRUY.
Voulez-Vous (ah ha, ha,ha,ha,ha.) Mamma Mia, Here we go again.

Three days before they play Celtic, delaying the flag unfurling, trying to rub our noses in it. How I wish that we don’t form a guard of honour and clap them on, I can feel the bile catching the back of my throat already. How great it would be to beat them handsomely. Good idea, to pay tribute to those that passed due to Covid, it’s right to remember ‘the missing’ all were loved by their families and loved ones. I will not be at the game, non the less, I will be clapping too.

After last nights events at Ibrox, I paid a visit to a well known Sevco fan forum. Unsurprisingly, everyone was getting it in the neck but there was a rather interesting topic that caught my eye. The poster’s theory was that last year they were entirely consumed by stopping the 10, the associated physical, mental and emotional exertions had completely emptied them. They were obsessed, like men possessed and peaked to achieve the the most important thing they could achieve and now their focus has completely gone, players look lost, disinterested.

Whatever folk think of that, the cracks are there for all to see, there are real problems and not just financial. Panic stations against 10 men, the physcological damage that last nights result could do to them? Gerrard looked a haunted man last night.

We need to turn the screw now and win this league.

Another theory is that they’re shite, they’ve always been shite and they only won the league lasts season thanks to the refs and Lawwell nobbling Celtic as his part of the 5 Way Agreement.

Just a theory, mind …

According to the Vac cine Adverse Effect Reporting System in the US, 75% of new Con vid cases are from the already vac cinated …

You think of any reason why that might be, all admitted ‘genetic experiment‘ quotes from Pfizer aside?

This is without mentioning the outrageous amount of death and illness their experimental toxin has caused worldwide, outstripping the Convid deaths by around 10 to 1.

Go to Lifesite News’ page and read how the world renowned toxicologist Dr. Janci Lindsay tells the Centre for Disease Control, who are running the hoax, that all Vac cines must be halted immediately.

Of course you don’t have to check the site if living in blind idiot ignorance is your thing but I recommend to people who would like to live beyond the next few years at least.

I think it’s a bit of both …

You do what Dermot tells you for a heated seat at CP A D you believe the media about everything.

Except Sevco, of course.

You know for SURE that they lie about Sevco every waking day so how you can believe such proven and repeatedly deliberate liars don’t lie about anything else is beyond me, unless you just don’t have a brain in yer Heid, which, given your countless years of trying and failing to spell the name Odsonne Édouard, is by far the more likely scenario.

Doesn’t it ever occur to you just to do a 3 second Google search rather making such a cvnt of yourself in front of all yer mates?

But all joking aside, 8 will tell you this, boy …

The judgement upon you for your repeated nonsense about this non existent ‘plague’ of yours will be harsh and mighty.

Especially if it’s learnt that you really do know the truth behind it.

God says.

Gringo, I’m thinking it’s just a bit ironic that you believe everything from one blog that you posted as ‘evidence’ of your rants, perhaps as it spouts what you want it to, and then talk about “a 3 second Google search”? WHIT???? Have you any clue what Google makes most of its money from? Here for nothing, it makes fortunes out of learning about you (as you search), selling it on and generally exploiting you as it gets to know more about you than YOU do! Ditto Facebook, What’s App, the whole fukkin lot! At least get some credibility by searching via DuckDuckGo and The Onion Ring and stop, ffs stop calling everyone idiots because they don’t believe as you do, on scant evidence I might add.

TicToc, I’ve provided evidence from innumerous sites on here, some of the, for Pfizer’s own web pages, some from the World Health Organisation’s own pages, some from the Centre for Disease Control’s own web pages and others from the World Economic Forum’s own pages, where I’ve used their own words to tell us what they’re doing to humanity.

The problem is that every time, from the vac cine being a genetic experiment on humanity to the WEF telling us that there going to ‘exploit’ the ‘sudden Convid pandemic’ (sic) to usher in a New World Order, and all of it IN THEIR OWN WORDS.

The problem is that every time I post these sources Ralph or Desi bans me from the site and often erase the links, and TThe entire text, I’ve posted.

Now you know how frustrating it is to be ‘Awaiting For Approval’ (sic) …

Imagine how I feel having 6 years’ worth of research work continuously deleted from these pages …

I only do it because I care, mate.

And if you were to use the brains God have you you’d have examined those links already rather caning cognac all day and thinking it will make you better.

It’s all a set up, TicToc, and the fvckers running the show have already told us ON THEIR OWN PAGES & IN THEIR OWN WORDS what is really going on here.

So go on, mucker …

Don’t be a hoodwinked dummy all yer life.

And if you want proof of what Im saying here, just visit the WEF, the WHO & the CDC sites to see that neither I nor those other people concerned for all of our futures are just making this stuff up.

It’s all there, in videos, in photos, in lengthy statements and short statements …

They tell us it’s all Ah’ll so they can carry out their genetic experiment.

They literally say it in those words.

And if you don’t believe me just go look for yourself.

And make sure you’re sober when you do it or you’ll miss the point,

Which are also run by the same conspirators that are running the Convid scam.

And nor should you, as it’s better to live in harsh light than live in the constant dark.

But it’s never too late to change and to admit your failings to yourself.

They hoodwinked us all once, mate, so there’s no need to be embarrassed or ashamed of your stupidity, but that’s your call and yours alone.
