Just an idea but we're going to go down to ten brave men anyway on Sunday so I think I should start and introduce myself to either:
(a) Joey Garner

(b) Kenny Miller or

(c) the ref?

I'm easy and it's your shout fellow TIMMITES, but I promise if given the responsibility I would do you all and my home town of Airdrie proud during my 5 minutes on the park! Right in about them from the first minute! C'mon Brendan's Bigot Bashers! ☘️.

Any chance you could take all three out.?
If not, my choice would be Miller - how he has escaped without retribution for the attempted double leg break on Armstrong is just beyond me!

😁Haha I'm not sure we could get the paperwork through in time for you to start, it could be another cadete type hold up!

Mysterious and extremely dubious red card on top of numerous soft free kicks in the latter stages of the Glasgow cup final with sevco trailing 2-1. Not enough to hamper the hoops from lifting the trophy yet again. Celtic players are weaned on success - and 'honest mistakes'.

ha ha Passing Time you beat me to it, even at this level the referees are being groomed on honest mistakes, still the young hoops sickened them by lifting the trophy.
Sunday will no doubt see more honest mistakes, but we are better than them and will blow them away, no matter what the ref tries to hamper us with. hail hail.

that was them sending a subliminal message for sunday showing they will try to stop us at whatever level of football we are playing, he must have got his kicks by sending a young bhoy of 17 off,

i remember playing against celtic boys club as a youngster and me and my team mates complaining to the ref about the decisions he was giving against celtic and they were the opposition that day even our manager shouted to the ref "to play the game" it was ridiculous.

me and everyone in our team were celtic fans and knew what was going on, unbeknown to the bigoted ref he just happened to be refereeing the game in a big irish catholic area of clydebank, he ended up sprinting to his car at the final whistle without changing out of his ref gear to avoid officials of both teams jarring him up for his performance.

I think Miller, kelleher and Johnston are the prospects coming from the development squad that really stand out. I believe they should all be either going out on loan or getting chances in the first team. Towards the end of this season I'd imagine they will be drafted in while letting players rest for the "bigger" games. Hopefully the treble and the unbeaten season goes our way. Cheers Ken.

2 miserable games for Schalk cheating. The man should be banned for 6 months to show they mean business on stamping diving out.

I guess the media will now be jumping up and down saying Brown should accept any punishment and show the same respect this cheating twit has.

And consequences for the referee? Oh wait, he made an honest mistake!

2 games is pretty standard Tim, I doubt you'd be calling for 6 months if Dembele had done the same.

Agree2 Disagree4

20 Apr 2017 13:11:25
Yeah, need to watch what you call for, might come back to bite us, if one ours does the same, saying that, think it should be three match ban, if it is as blatant as that one.

Agree1 Disagree4

20 Apr 2017 13:43:23
Dembele hasbdone the same Kev, he's juat better at it 😉. Cue UJ.

Agree0 Disagree2

20 Apr 2017 16:18:12
No i think TT has a point look at the ban Suarez got for biting a think there has to be a bigger than two game ban it has to start affecting there appearance and bonus monies to make them think again IMO.

Agree0 Disagree2

20 Apr 2017 16:29:23
What you mean dembele is better at it? he's not once won us a pen doing it. So therefore yer man schallk clearly better lol.

Agree0 Disagree2

20 Apr 2017 16:45:45
I certainly think more cases need to be dealt with retrospectively. Even dives that go un-punished. Yes, like Dembele's. My opinion isn't divine but it's different strokes for different folks jamie and biting isn't just unsporting, it's criminal! I'd even say subhuman.

Agree0 Disagree2

20 Apr 2017 16:51:29
Fair point yayo 😄.

Agree0 Disagree2

20 Apr 2017 16:58:37
they will probably make a point of booking Dembele for it on Sunday to make us look bad, knowing that handshaking mob it will probably be a stonewall penalty that they book him for diving for.

Agree6 Disagree2

I loathe and detest cheating and I do not care what jersey they are wearing. If a Celtic player got caught cheating like that, then I would say the same thing.
I have standards and would not compromise because it's a Celtic player committing the crime.
Cheating affects players, managers, clubs, fans, jobs and potential supporters who would rather go to rugby and other sports where at least an attempt is made to prevent this disease.

Agree0 Disagree2

There is plenty of cheating in Rugby. Biting peoples ears off, eye gouging, and spear tackles are all cheating in my book.
The only difference is, is that the holier than thou Rugby fraternity think they are a class above Football because after they have been caught cheating they call the referee "Sir".

Agree0 Disagree3

20 Apr 2017 21:53:10
What about having a sort of rolling scale of punishment, say a two match ban for the first offence, and for every time after, another match ban added, should get rid of the persistent offenders, although some of them are very good, Michael Owen, i think it was, had it down to a t, although if you watched his feet closely enough, you could see he had no intention of running any further than what looked like a point of contact, retrospective punishment is what i was talking about above, but if anyone gets caught doing it on the field it should be an instant red card.

Well said tiny tim.

21 Apr 2017 13:15:37
I'm with you TT and would rather lose even to them that shall not be named than have to cheat to win. I'll take an honest mistake every day of the week though! Panicking about nothing a Divine Mercy Sunday pumping is coming! No mercy! 👍☘️.

Walker got banned for diving in a game where dembele also dived, where is the outrage about dembele being a cheat?

Agree0 Disagree0

21 Apr 2017 16:24:39
I would gladly take winning on Sunday with a horrendous refereeing decision, although I don't hold out much hope of it happening.
I would love Sevco fans to feel the hurt that every other clubs fans have to endure but they never have to.

So fellow Tims from today until Sunday, try and do what I am doing, DO NOT read a paper, listen to anyradio station, or watch the ex currents on sly tv.
All you will get is how "relevant" the new club is to the SPFL, how they are "back" the "Old Firm? " is back and every club's attendances have gone up by 3trillion.
Then you will get all their players mouthing off, the ex ones drooling about the "good days" returning and how starting on Sunday the "big challenge" to Celtic starts. Sadly the SMSM wil roll out some tame ex Celtic players to reaffirm that "they" are back.
No let them all spout off, just ignore it all until Sunday when our players will do all our talking ON THE PITCH. hail hail.

Tim I am delighted that the rags are full of interviews from Pedro and the ex-EBTers. Let them run their mouths off about winning silverware. They would have us think that they are unbeatable, and that we are running scared!

Meanwhile at Celtic Park there is silence. Can't remember reading one interview this week from our management or players. Instead they are desperately searching their phones books to contact the dial-a-quotes. That tells me one thing, we are 100% focused on the game and getting to the final.

Agree0 Disagree3

20 Apr 2017 16:22:12
Celtic will need to be on their game Tim and we'll need ten brave men because a penalty is a certainty and they'll be kicking everything that moves as was the case previously.

Right in about them from kick off and make the first booking ours. Keep fair play for the feckn rugby or when we're playing teams who don't have the backing of the establishment. PS: been reading UJs posts again I thought they took your phone, computer and all electrical goods off of you in an asylum to stop you hurting yourself? What a horses arse of a man.

Agree2 Disagree2

20 Apr 2017 16:59:14
a doctor is doing his rounds in the asylum, a guy in the first bed is sitting up driving an imaginary car, the doctor says to him "you've not got a car its all in your mind" the guy in the next bed shouts "don't tell him that doctor he gives me 7 quid a week for washing it for him".

dont post often if at all. ill put it out here to get shot down but. im a bit nervy about sunday. my heart says thumpin but my head says a load of draws and meh. we've been cruising. between that and the honest mistake mob my heart will be in my mouth. is it just me? thoughts?

Believable2 Unbelievable7

Gerry am a bit apprehensive to we need dembele to start playing again. and the centre backs to start defending. and there's always the chance if a wee honest mistake like the big erik perfectly good goal in the last semi but in saying all that a still fancy us HH.

Agree1 Disagree5

20 Apr 2017 11:06:08
Gerry I actually fancied a draw the past 2 games against them, not on Sunday tho. 3-1 / 3-0 to us I'm not worried at all. Would love scott Brown to score!

Agree0 Disagree5

20 Apr 2017 11:12:59
Gerry am always like that. In a 1 off game anything can happen.

Agree0 Disagree6

20 Apr 2017 18:50:35
Before last weekend I was thinking a slim victory but after this weekends activities Brendan will have these guys foaming at the mouth to get at this shower. He is under no disillusionment that we are up against 12 men and that it's vital we score early and more than twice. It's all about the drive now and I have a funny feeling we are about to witness something very special. I predict 4-1 and sevco to finish with 9 men.

Agree1 Disagree2

{Ed007's Note - That's a bold prediction bud, I hope you're right but.}

easy gerry son, relax take a few deep breaths, think of all that snow and ice you had to endure in iceland before you came home, now open your eyes and smell that warmer fresh air, there you go mate that'll be £175 for that therapy i gave you a £25 off tims reduction there.
