Not long back from a great day with friends at their barbecue, thankfully weather has saved us from a boring Sunday of English dominated sport on tv.
Are there 3 more boring television sports than Golf, Cricket and Cycling. Do not know who won what and do not care, bring back the fitba, NOW.
Going to first home game Tuesday and girls and I cannot wait. Come on you bhoys in Green. Timalloy {Ed007's Note - Nothing wrong with a bit of golf Timbo, I miss not being able to play and, it's a good way to relax and have a think about things. Watching F1 racing seems pretty pointless to me, cricket only interests southern-softy shandy drinkers and I'd rather watch Jeremy Bile than cycling!!}

Got to agree with ed tim, nothing better than a game of golf and a few pints afterwards, especially in this weather. But in saying that the open was a bit of a let down no real drama at the end. Cricket and cycling? Zzzzzzzzz!

Briggs

Not having that Tim! The golf is the business after the football. This weekend showed the problems even the top pro's encounter. green jhedi

Is the game on tuesday on the season book . happynoods

Oh come on! I know we got belted but you can't go past Test cricket for sheer anticipation. Cycling is mince though. And Golf is crap on TV, you're much better off going to watch it in person.

What you all need by the sounds of things is a dedicated AFL channel for your summer. The next 6 weeks are huge leading into finals. This Friday night in particular with 1st v 2nd, my boys Essendon taking on top of the table Hawthorn. Go Dons!

Cycling is interesting if you watch the big climbs and fast descents. If you watch the tour de France live it really isn't so bad. The French crowds are very entertaining. As for golf. The sport of the common man in Scotland is truly obscene as a spectator sport with these strutting peacocks and multi millionaires who don't even get out of breath. Its a nice sport to play but if I want to look at a pot bellied middle aged man in a ridiculous sweater I just have to look in the mirror on Christmas day.
Test cricket. Now that's a real joke. The game of Empire played mainly by spoiled rich kids from independant schools. Or in Scotland we just give a few guys from the commonwealth a game and call it a Scottish team. Lol. Its nonsense. The sound of willow on leather. Geez a brek! Sopotcelt.

If it wasn't for Celtic and Golf I'd get no peace from my missus!

She was once told "when you see a team in green and white on tv you stay quiet." Lol. Luckily she seen the funny side.

I've often thought golfers were a bit silly with their clothes though it's all part of the fun I s'pose. I have played once or twice and did quite enjoy it. I've nothing against golf, despite it being an allegory for freemasonry. pea {Ed007's Note - They are tiptoeing around it while all the outrage about allowing women in is going on.}

There's only one Old Trafford.

Howzat!

Pfft cheers ed for no posting my posts lately {Ed007's Note - I have no idea who you are but you're welcome, there's really no need to thank me.}

22 Jul 2013 14:46:28
But we should thank you Ed. Thank you for not posting his post. Site's much better for it.

21 Jul 2013 11:48:46
Ed what do you think about this? Gary Hooper knocks back QPR digs his heels in and says he doesn't want a move. That will surely force Celtic's arm to offer him the terms he wants. New contract and then sell him next summer. {Ed007's Note - I still fully expect Hooper to leave in this window.}

21 Jul 2013 10:23:29
Alright Ed? Long time no post!

You may remember about a year ago I posted a list of players myself and a friend compiled of possible Celtic targets that we thought could work out well for us.

Happened to come across it today and seen a name that rang a few bells: Omer Damari.

Still got a great record, still got a 3mEuro buyout clause, still would be a great addition imo!

If anyone is interested in the list, you can search my name and find it easily!

Cheers, from sunny Tunisia,

Don't know if anyone else seen this but I was reading a gutter press paper online this morning and saw that the new Sevco team bus had been set alight (shocking and unacceptable behavior from personic people stupid enough to put people's lives at risk). However what gives the editors of the paper the right to put pictures of Celtic fans pitch invasion at Brentford all over this story with no mention of the game itself? Surely this is slander with them assuming it must have been a Celtic fan that did this. After the stuff made up about singing at the Brentford game by the sevconians can we really disregard the fact this could be another act of hatred and jealosy by them? Another prime example of the Scottish press and their blue tinted spectacles.

Yeah the bitter bigot JG on the other site is trying to deflect from his own low life clubs antics! And quoting the papers verbatim lol he tells all his other low life pals to ignore it when it is referring to his new club but quotes it like gospel when it's fabricated garbage about celtic!
The guy is an absolute joke of a human being!

Would be amazed if CelticFC don't complain in the strongest terms about the S*n article. Lower than the gutter.

Check the accusations from this balloon on the other site!

Pure jealousy, that's what it was that burnt down that bus, pure pathetic jealousy, I mean what else could have been? That kind of stuff makes me so ANGRY. catch theese bags!"
Signed I m and eejit

Nothing like the honesty from these idiots is there! Are their new board members not in the bus business?

The police are looking at who might have a grudge against the newco. That might take some time. There will be a lot of angry people where they are concerned. This appears to have been a 'professional' job. Luckily no one was hurt, which is the main thing. There is something odd about this.

Knew the edit was coming ed, had to write it as soon as I noticed it. Makes me so angry that they start p**h like this because none of their journalists are talented or skilled enough to write up a decent story regarding Scotish football. I hope someone has a screen shot and we do make a complaint.

There will be a memorial service to celebrate the glorious 140 mile history of 'THE BUS'. Ally is said to be deeply shocked that he won't see it again. I fully expect this to be announced soon judging by the attention, in print and broadcasting, this story is generating.

More serious is the fact that Celtic fans seem to be getting dragged into this.The overplaying of the fact that the sevco bus was inside is a blatant attempt to push an agenda. No one was killed, thankfully, and they will be fully insured. I am sure there will be CCTV covering all areas of the garage, end of story. green jhedi

Reports today that suspicious fire in Lanarkshire coach business destroyed the new rangers £500,000 bespoke coach and stand-by second coach, third and fourth coaches.

Police are obviously investigating the possibility of an insurance scam and also 276 stiffed creditors of the club and 70 million taxpayers. Ticketus and HMRC refused to comment.

Craig Whyte maintains he was in the Cayman Islands at the time signing documents for his company blue pitch holdings.

Legal experts Pinsett Masons are to write a report confirming Craig Whyte was not involved in the purchase of the bus.

A police scotland spokesman stated they would leave no stone unturned, after all we're all fans, We are Ra Peepul.

Rumours four drivers and a watchman, former debenture holders, were known to have an illicit BBQ are unfounded.

Ally McCoist complained he had left his best trainers under his seat with a winning lottery ticket and a wallet with £5,000 in paper notes. As have all the players.

Durrant said he never liked it anyway.

No EBT documentation has been reported to have been left in the coach. Although a copy of Lord Nimmo-Smith's landmark report on sporting advantage was in each pocket on the back of each seat.

Legal Ownership of the bus remains a mystery and Brian Stockbridge, as yet, has shown no documents nor yellow folders.

Former legend bomber brown says he has several legends on board with an initiative for fans to chip in money for a new bus and that the fans don't know the half of it.

The SFA's Stuart Regan is taking the matter seriously and may or may not hold his own investigation.

Silent Jim Trainers, rangers media and communications director remained, as always, silent.

Finally, Scotland's grade A referees are all upset as they had been looking forward to travelling to all New rangers away matches, in third tier, on the bus.
A. Satire

(It is a banter site. I do hope they catch the Ned's and lock them up if it was deliberate. Thank god no one was injured).

Japanese tourists who had bought Visit Scotland tickets to view the bus are deeply disappointed. They will now be treated to the Waverly paddle steamer instead.

Several pre contract players, to sign on sept 1st are reviewing their position. Citing the bus as a major factor in joining SEVCO.

Correction. Apologies.

Japanese tourists who had bought Visit Scotland tickets to view the bus are deeply disappointed. They will now be treated to a third viewing of Ibrox.
