Was in Fir Park today to see how by big mate John was getting on refurbishing the disabled toilets below the main stand and had the chance to see how the new playing surface looked and am pleased to report that it looks absolutely SUPERB. Well done to all the ground staff.
Good thread started over on P&B about maybe getting BT interested in a TV deal of sorts.
Suppose if we're thinking of boycotting Sky should they pull out then we could use our potential business to BT (or Virgin for that matter) to make them think about plugging the gap.
Imagine if a couple of hundred thousand football fans who were Sky customers said they would all switch to BT or Virgin
Would Sky feel threatened enough to negotiate a fair deal and would BT/Virgin see enough earning potential to consider making a bid
Fan power and all that and someone to start a facebook page perhaps ??
Big marquee on the astro behind the east that can hold 1000 people.In before and after the game for a few pints and a sing song/quiz/showing old games etc.
I would def go for something like that.If everyone spent a tenner!!!
Probably too many obstacles in the way for something like that though.
Still have my Arthur Black shirt from the 70's in the wardrobe. Lovely so it was, Amber with Claret piping and tabs with Amber staypress trousers and Doc Martins,now I think back I must have looked like a banana walking down the street
Been out of the country for 4 weeks so just bringing myself up to date with whats been happening.
Has anyone else noticed something in the gate income information that doesn't seem to tie up in that they've said that income from the non old firm clubs is 300k or 26k average per game.
We had 15 home games against the non old firm clubs so should the average not be 20k. Thought they may have quoted the income net of vat and the average inclusive of VAT but that still doesn't stack up.
Not terribly important in the overall scheme of things but wondered if anyone else can shed any light or am I just still suffering from jet lag?
Thought so too with the exception of letting that big carthorse Considine get away with murder. Rory Fallon fouls every time he goes up for a ball, last week he got away with it today he didn,t.
Are there any other payment plans other than the 4 instalments?
Still think a lot of people would sign up if there was a 10/12 month direct debit option at £25 or £30 a month.
Would quite happily put in £50 even though I,ve already signed up.
The disabled supporters association is also going to discuss doing something similar.
THIS SCHEME NEEDS TO WORK!!!!!!
Agree with you, didn't think there was any intent at all more of a stumble into the tackle than anything else.
I personally think Clancy was hurt more than the Hibs player
Happened right in front of me and tbh Clancy tried to pull out of the tackle and hit the ground before making contact and hit him with his right knee but technically yes both feet of the ground but he didn't make all that much of a contact.
It's actually with much sadness that I have made the decision to miss my first game of the season and give this one a miss.
I vowed after the way we were treated at the last game I would NEVER go back to Celtic Park and I am sticking to that.
You have to draw a line somewhere and when you are with someone in a wheelchair who had to suffer being called a dirty orange spassy b*****d by young kids being egged on by their fathers and when you complain to the stewards they laugh in your face then it is time to say enough is enough.
I hope we stick it to them and I'll probably regret not going but I don't want to experience the same again.
Do us proud guys and sing your hearts out, hopefully someone else will be there to capture it on camera.
Well done the guys in the East once again you were superb. Here's some footage.
Sorry bout some of the sound quality trying out a new camera but you'll get the drift of what the atmosphere was like for the rest of us
