Happy Birthday Stevie Chalmers, i see he doesn't recognise TRIFC being the same club he played against. Love his quote about him being the last man to score a hat-trick in the league against Rangers, saying he was surprised nobody has managed to replicate his feat and thought Henrik would of managed it.

If it was the same team can anybody tell me the sfa rule that stated a liquidated club had to go down to the bottom league? And if this was in fact a sfa rule, why was there the whole drama of getting a new registration and membership as they surely should've just started the season automatically? Funny how that gets forgotten πŸ˜πŸ€.

If they were the same club there would be riots if they were 14 points behind Celtc at Christmas and beaten in a cup. However, since this is a brand new club - who have moved up the divisions relatively smoothly, since their inception and even managed a cup final appearance in the process and are now mounting a serious top-three spot - everyone of their fans and allies are absolutely ecstatic.

Hope everyone had a merry Christmas. I was wondering, if we manage to go on and win the treble this year and smash the league by loads of points. Does anyone think br will start to get bored if there is no significant challenge next season and maybe look to head down south? ! The way we are looking at the minute and with investment over the next few windows we look like we will only get better. At the minute I'm really enjoying us playing and would love to see us go on and get 10 with br in charge. But someone, probably the Huns have to put a challenge into us for him to be kept interested.

BR's a young man Quinn and I think he'll be here for 10 in a row no question. He knows that will write him into the history books. He's also on record as saying it not about wining trophies or not winning them it's about coaching and developing players. No better infrastructure than Celtic have to do that. I think there's a bigger question there though about Scottish football sorting itself out in order that other clubs can mount a challenge. I think Hearts, Hibs, Aberdeen etc. have that potential. Wouldn't bet on the Huns being around long enough to do it though πŸ€.

Taking his (potential) achievements at Celtic out if it, there is another factor: Liverpool.

Given he has already managed at the top end of the EPL, I don't think he'd leave for a middling team down there. In other words, unlike a lot of players/ managers who see Scotland as a stepping stone, he's already done it. Now, that's not to say he won't go to a European team, or even be offered another crack at the top end of the EPL - though a Man Utd fan, I'd have to ask, who is bigger than Liverpool that he'd (realistically) get?

And on the slim chance a top English/ European come for him, it'll be on the basis of huge (relative) success for us.

I think Mr Rodgers speaks fluent Italian and Spanish so he may not be looking to the cess pool EPL.

Quinn it's swings and roundabout and eventually we will be looking up at someone, let's keep our feet on the ground and just enjoy every trophy, every European campaign and every slap down we give the newcomers from govan as they come . it's a work in progress and we are not a great team yet, we are just the closest Scotland has to one, by a huge distance 😊.
