Yes, there is.
And the two resolutions put forward by the Celtic trust need your support. They want to remind shareholders use their vote;
” We are asking all shareholder to vote FOR Resolutions 10, 11,12. At a recent meeting the members of the Celtic Trust decided to depart from our usual practice of WITHHOLDING our votes on resolutions proposed by the Board which concern re-election and remuneration of Directors. We are asking for a vote AGAINST these resolutions to umderline our disgust and concern that the Board while giving themselves huge payments are denying their employees a Living Wage. If votes are proxied to the Trust they will be cast FOR Resolutions 10, 11, 12, and AGAINST Resolutions 1-9 unless otherwise indicated. If proxying to the Chairman please remember to clearly indicate how you wish each vote to be cast.
Thats from an article on the Trusts website.
I can’t see any mention of the other resolution, which calls for an investigation into how Rangers got their licence a couple of years ago, thus skanking a few teams out of money they were due, but thats the other one to vote for.
Unless the grapevine is correct, and its been withdrawn after a chat with Tsar Peter.
The Trust will be tweeting from the meeting regularly, so if you want to keep an eye on this years events, its at #ticagm.
I’m sure we will all be delighted with how it turns out.
International football takes centre stage tonight-its the first leg of the play offs for the World cup. Celtics interest will be in the Greece -Romania and Portugal – Sweden ties, while some of us might have a look at Iceland against Croatia and wonder what might have been -first with Alfie Finnbogasson, and second if Craig Levein had not have been involved with Scotland.
Scotland themselves are in action -action perhaps too strong a word-against the USA , and Scott Brown is looking for a place in the Hall of Fame. He currently has 34 of the required 50 caps;
“I keep a cap and a strip from every game to show my kids what I’ve done.
“Hopefully I can make the magic 50 and they’ll see my picture on the wall.
“I’m enjoying playing for Scotland and for Celtic, even though I haven’t played as many games as I’d have liked to.
“So while I’m free of injury, if I could play every minute of every game then I’d love to do so.
“These are two huge games for Scotland and if I can play in both that would be an honour for me.
“We then go into a huge club game against Aberdeen. Then we have the Champions League, so I’m sure I’ll get a rest then!
“All the lads want to play for Scotland. It’s a great honour and there is a real commitment here.
“Look at Alan Hutton, who has not been playing for Aston Villa. It’s a great opportunity for him to come here, play and show how good he is.”
Er, aye.
James Forrest has pulled out of the squad, as he feels he gets more than enough chances to get injured while on club duty.
The Dream Team of Martin O’ Neill and Roy Keane swings into action for Ireland with a game against Latvia, and the former Celtic manager is upbeat about making a go of a job where he doesn’t have Henrik Larsson in his team and is not allowed to buy any players. Actually, when you remember Henri Camara, thats got to be a good thing.
England manager Roy Hodgson hasn’t decided, publicly at least, whether or not to give Fraser Forster a game against Chile, but it looks likely. There are doubts in England that the big keeper can step up from playing against Barcelona, Juventus, Milan and Ajax, so there is still a chance that Jack Ruddy will get the nod, as he faced West Ham last week, and only conceded one.
Strange one this, but not surprising. If ruddy gets in, then Gary Hooper will feel strangely vindicated, even if someone has to explain to him what it means.
Actually, Jim Bett, the player many people thought was even better than Paul McStay, though granted not anyone who knew anything about football, has claimed that new Celtic signing Holmbert Aron Fridjonsson-Stevie May is easier to spell, I’m sure Lennon just signed the Icelander to annoy me-is the new Gary Hooper;
“Fridjonsson has become a hot property in Icelandic football and his goal ratio of one every two games speaks for itself.
“That’s an impressive strike rate for any attacker no matter what league you play in. The youngster is highly rated and has been earning rave reviews.
“In Iceland they’ve shown all his goals on TV and I would rate him a penalty-box striker in the mould of Gary Hooper.
“He does most of his damage in and around the six-yard box.
“You hesitate to put pressure on the lad by labelling him before he has kicked a ball for Celtic but he has the potential to make a similar impact to Hooper at Celtic Park.
“For an outlay of just £100,000 Celtic would be getting a decent player with the raw ingredients and a keen eye for goal.
“Celtic are not taking any great risk at that price so it really is a win-win situation for everybody.
“Celtic are traditionally a team that creates a lot of chances so it stands to reason that Fridjonsson would score goals for them.
“I think Celtic are the right club for him and that this move has come at the right time. He has so much promise I could see him getting an early opportunity in Neil Lennon’s side ”
Well done the Daily Record for finding someone with inside knowledge of the player. Its probably just a coincidence that its an ex Rangers player. Yeah, they probably couldn’t find anyone else in their big book of football contacts.
Friend of mine has invented a time machine. He was panicking yesterday, as he had inadvertently gone back in time and er, met his mum, and er, well, you know.. So i asked him if he could actually be his own father, but he said it wasn’t possible, as he only went back a fortnight. Anyway, I borrowed it from him…
As I stepped out onto the terrain the first thing that hit me was the smell. The decay and ruins were all around me of a once thriving civilisation. The dark souless creatures that inhabited this place uttered thier unearthly gutteral communication. Then the true horror of what had happened slowly began to dawn on me. The bloody thing wasn’t working. This was still Ibrox, 2013
And heres the new decor inside..
There are many, many rumours about what happened at Ibrox, and there are many , many rumours about what is going to happen. Although I wouldn’t believe the one about an upcoming AGM, as the modus operandi of the spivs is to scarper before they have to face any questions.
Sevco 5088 have suddenly re-appeared. Yesterday, they removed a director, Charles Green, and now only have two left on their board. Craig Whyte, who promised in February of last year, to finish what he started at Ibrox, and Aiden Earley.
Green is away, he’s made his money and got a nice new house out of the money skanked from the Rangers support.
So, whats next ?
Someone has recalled a request to dissolve Sevco 5088, and if you remember, that was the firm set up to buy the assets of the now defunct Rangers FC. Delightfully, and purely coincidentally, for Duff and Phelps, the administrators at the time, the sum raised just about covered their fees…
The only people who know exactly what is going on are those directly involved, the whole saga of the demise of the club will never truly be documented whilst we still have a compliant scottish media too afraid to ask questions and demand answers. They know where to look for them, but are scared to lift up the rock that conceals them.
Happily, for those of us who are interested, the New Scientist magazine offers an explanation;

Dear Desi
I am writing simply to inform you that, unlike some institutions, I am not dead. Nor have I been liquidated, though some would say I am full of p*sh. Therefore, I simply have to ask why I find my comments are permanently suspended in limbo these days. The asbestos roof is really giving me jip and I would like to see the daylight and breath some fresh air again sometime soon. I tried posting as a reply even and that did not work. So I am trying the same ploy again in the hope of being heard by SOMEONE. In desperation I am on bended knee, something I have done for no man in many a year if only because of my hip replacement, begging for an explanation. If it is my name I am happy to change to The Pensionerbhoy and pot 1888 after it or 1888 Scotland. But just remember, I will still be the same person with all my past history intact and producing the same sh*t.

Game was decided on a toss of a coin due to 3-3 agg scoreline
The other possible reason they spoke to Jim Bett is that he played in Iceland for a while, I think might be married to an Icelandic woman and possibly lives there.
I doubt that actually occurred to them. but you could be right.
Correct Andy. Quite a good player too, one of the few Scots who was comfortable playing for a continental team. I was sorry when he signed for Rangers but he probably had his best days at Aberdeen and Lokeren.
Benfica game was in 69-70. The same year as Leeds and Feyenoord.
Did the guy who wrote that ad get arrested/(prepositioned?) by the grammar Polis? – Benfica v Celtic AT Lisbon?
Seems like a good deal. – Only 33 quid return all in, flying the week after next, November 26/27th (no mention of the year). I’m on the phone to A.Y Mays as I type!
Anyone interested in preparing an online pet ion for the Amsterdam two. Surely enough Tim’s on the web to sign up and put pressure on the Dutch authorities to review the situation. Amsterdam, after all is the capital of one of the countries regarded as a bastion of the EU and a proponent of Human Rights.
Coin toss game?
Has the pitch at the Deathstar been turned into a Celtic jersey? Looks like green and white hoops to me!
I would LOVE to see that huge baldy guy of the “big hoose must stay open” quote or even John “Ah played fur this stadium” Broon try to interpret and explain that multi-jers theory!
Not only was it the coin toss game but I remember reading that when the ref tossed the coin he dropped it on the dressing room floor and it rolled under one of the benches there. Jock Stein quick as a flash was first to get to the coin and shouted “Yes” and held it up showing it had landed in his & Celtics favour!!
Think I read that in Cesars’s book canna quite remember but defo read it somewhere!!
Knowing big Jock and the force of his personality I wouldn’t be surprised if he did succeed in pulling a fast one!!
The captains called the toss, not the managers and Big Billy shouted “heads” and we got through. Fiorentina in next round I think.
Nah,I think Feyenoord got Fiorentina while we got Leeds in the other semi.
I beg your pardon,you’re right,we got Fiori in the last 8 after the Bennies
This new striker sounds like he’ll fit perfectly with current tactics. I look forward to seeing him out on the wing or taking corner kicks.
hearing about the new lad is like reading the Bio and promise of what….mr Rasmussen…mr Bangura…..and mr Pukki were going to add to the squad……..i was unimpressed with the Larsson signing until it became clear we’d signed a belter……so i’ll keep my fingers crossed this new lad can do well for us.
I remember watching Larsson torture Paul Ince over two legs in Europe before he signed for us and was in no doubt whatsoever we had signed a quality player.
He made Ince look so bad in fact Ince spent nearly two games trying to kick Henke off the park but ot no avail.
The young dreadlocked Swede ripped the piss out of him.
